Chapter 290: Two Hundred and Nine:
Be sensible enough to accept that you can't maintain interest in the league after winning seven titles, Leander has almost cried the Premier League giants in the past two years, and has played four games with Liverpool this season: two legs in the league, the EFL Cup, and the FA Cup...... It's always those opponents who are tired of winning so much.
Ferguson wasn't angry, out of selfishness he wanted Leander to stay for a few more years, but could he really keep it?
If he insists on not retiring, it is possible, but the whip must be handed over to the young people, and he also promised his wife that he would retire as long as he can break the historical record, not to mention the seven crowns...... Now the record has been broken. Ferguson still wants to hold on for a few months, depending on the schedule, the Community Shield is in August, the UEFA Super Cup is still half a month late, not to mention the Club World Cup, as Champions League champions they can play directly from the semi-finals, that is in December...... The family doctor who has been taking care of his body for a long time has given him several ultimatums, and Ferguson has also expressed his idea that he will not be willing to wait for at least after the Club World Cup.
Originally, the doctor was ready to give in, and after the Champions League final, he did another physical examination for the lord, but the results were not optimistic.
In order to get this record-breaking championship, he worked too hard, and now in this situation, retirement and taking care of his body is the right way, if he continues to do this, he will fall directly on the sidelines one day, football is too exciting, and he can't stand watching the live broadcast, not to mention the coach who will be sprayed with a face if he loses.
Alex Ferguson is seventy years old.
Fans feel that he is still so strong, he is the first manager in the history of the Red Devils, the best in the world, only his wife and family doctor know how much it has been paid behind this, he had surgery to bypass the heart ten years ago, in order to fight in the highly competitive Premier League to this day, this kind of surgery should have been well rested, carefully raised, Ferguson can't stop, the rivals can't run forward, stop and lose, Manchester United's legendary manager is fighting with his body.
After the Champions League final, Ferguson was still looking for a suitable replacement for Kaka at the heart of the midfield, and when he was considering who would take over after retirement, the doctor spoke to his wife.
No matter how attractive the seven crowns are, he is not suitable to continue such an exciting work, anyway, there is no need to worry about these players, even if Ferguson has retired when Manchester United won the seven crowns, people will say that such a great cause was created by Ferguson.
It was he who poached Leander, and it was he who won the unprecedented quadruple and qualified for the next three competitions.
So, what does it matter?
Mrs. Ferguson thought that this was indeed the case, and went to him.
"The doctor talked to me about your physical condition, you can't go on, retire old man."
Sir Alex Ferguson, who was still thinking about who to choose as his successor in order to get along with Leander, suddenly heard this, and wanted to spray that unscrupulous doctor, was he sent by Manchester City next door? Tease me! How can you retire at such a time!
Mrs. Ferguson also loves football, and she has always been very supportive of her husband's career, but after reading the inspection report, she really can't continue to support it.
The words were about to pop out, and at this time he noticed Casey's expression, and changed to a gentle set of words at the critical moment: "How about winter?" At that time, no matter how much the fans try to keep them, I won't listen to them! ”
Casey didn't answer.
Her husband had always been trustworthy, and only in this regard could she trust any guarantees. In fact, in 08, the old man said: work for three more years at most, and retire after three years.
Now, four years later, things haven't happened.
"How about retiring immediately after winning the Club World Cup, without a single day of delay!"
When Ferguson said this, Casey made a very realistic assumption: "I am very reluctant to say this, but if you don't win the seven crowns this year, will you continue to drag it out because you are not reconciled?" People always want to climb the peak without stopping, they will never be satisfied, they want to defend seven crowns after winning seven crowns, isn't it good to enjoy the game from the stands? ”
The media has also said that with Manchester United's current state, the dog can win in the dugout, so why bother?
Ferguson only expressed his worries, he didn't know who to take over, although Rooney was impulsive, he knew that the most capricious person in the team was Leander, if the new coach couldn't understand him, it was estimated that it would make headlines every day.
The manager has to learn to turn a blind eye to a lot of this idiot's behavior.
Casey looked at him strangely, why couldn't his brain turn around? Leander said that after winning the seven crowns, there is no opponent in the Premier League, and he will consider playing in other leagues...... If the new coach is cheated, he will have to fight for a few more years to fulfill his promise to the fans, and he only needs to make an agreement with Ai before leaving, Leander will definitely do his best to let his mentor retire with peace of mind. There is only one game in the Community Shield, one in the UEFA Super Cup, and two in the Club World Cup, and it would be too much to hold on for another half a year for these four games.
The two talked all afternoon, and Ferguson finally made a decision that he had never been able to make, and if he wanted to retire, the biggest question in front of him was how to choose a successor?
Promoting Ole Gunnar Solskjaer? Or do you want to poach someone from someone else?
Although the replacement was not chosen, Ferguson spoke to the boss by phone about his situation, and he decided to announce his retirement after the championship parade and recommend a few suitable people to the club before leaving.
After negotiating with the American boss, Ferguson edited the text message and sent it to several lovers, Leander was still urging Real Madrid to send the lost stuff over, when he saw this message, he was silent for a few seconds and replied solemnly: [I assure you that whoever takes over the position will not leave until he wins the seven crowns, and he will not make trouble for the new coach.] ]
That's what Ferguson wants to hear the most, he just wants Manchester United to get better and better after he leaves.
The Champions League championship parade is surprisingly grand, they have rewritten team history, from winning Real Madrid on penalties, Manchester United has achieved a quadruple crown dynasty, fans can't help but vent their inner feelings, last year's depression and grievances were swept away, and in May, the four crowns are in hand, saying that the king of England can no longer interpret the strength of Manchester United, it should be the first in Europe, the strongest in the world!
This quick tour lasted for a long time, and after the end, the fans fell asleep and got up to watch the news, and the sky changed.
Manchester United announces Alex Ferguson's retirement this summer
"Counting the top ten cadres under Ferguson, who is the best disciple in his career? 》
"Ferguson's retirement tweet follows more than 10 million, the hottest topic now"
"The most regrettable farewell in the history of the Premier League, the change of the Red Devils dynasty"
"Lord Fu retires, celebrities compete for blessings"
"Lippi on Ferguson's retirement: completely unexpected"
《……》
In addition to the players who knew about it in advance and promised to cooperate with the new coach to win the five, six, and seven crowns, no one else could have imagined that they could coach for another year, how could they say goodbye at such a time?
The reporter interviewed his wife, Ms. Casey, to learn the truth behind it.
"Manchester United has been so exciting this year, especially this Champions League final, it has brought him a lot of burdens, I know you regret that he chose to retire and lost the opportunity to win back the seven titles with his own hands, as a wife, I just hope he is safe and healthy, he has worried too much about this team for the past 25 years, it's time to stop and rest, it's time to give the future to the young."
Kessie did not elaborate, but told the media that her husband's decision to change from manager to pure fan was due to physical reasons, and at the end of the interview, he wished Manchester United better and better, and hoped that the players would not slack off.
It's not that he doesn't want to stay, it's that when he has to leave, Ferguson knows that his condition is not good, especially after that Champions League final, it is very bad, and he wanted to "whitewash the peace", but he couldn't hold back.
Ferguson then also said a few words to the fans.
I'm sorry to make such a choice.
Hopefully, the fans and players and the new manager will come together to make a difference.
……
Leander saw the news and found that the news had been announced, and then he was interviewed, and there were many reporters blocking the door, Leander walked out generously, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said that he could answer a few questions, hoping to be quieter after answering.
The reporter asked him, did he know about this in advance? Ferguson is retiring.
"After winning the Champions League, I received a message from the lord that he might have to leave first, and I hope we can cooperate with the new manager and not slack off because he is retired, we all know the situation of the lord, it is a pity that he made such a decision, but he is not ready to persuade." Speaking of this, Leander paused, and he solemnly assured in front of the camera, "I promised the lord that my expectations will be fulfilled, so can you give greetings and blessings to this farewell?" ”
In fact, I can guess that this is the reason.
No matter how ambitious you are, you must first have the capital to struggle, and it is a good thing to retire with such a worrying career, the competition will only become more and more fierce, and the excitement is still to come.
After Leander, the ageless legend Ryan Giggs, captain Nemanja Vidic, and main striker Wayne Rooney all said a few words.
Everyone promised the lord that they would definitely go to see him with seven championship trophies.
Just because he is away from the dugout doesn't mean he's away from football and the team he's been worried about for more than 20 years.
There will be some sadness, but don't feel like the sky is falling.
……
Ferguson's farewell to football has become the hottest news at the moment, and the whole Europe and the world are talking about it, most people express their blessings, and some people shake their heads and say that you are finally out, twenty-five years is not enough? Although they have different attitudes, they have all expressed their concerns about Manchester United, and the change of manager is very demoralizing, and it seems that there is really no way to stick to this choice on the way to chase the seven crowns, and the football world is talking about who will succeed them.
Mourinho was mentioned, and it was heard that he had a stiff relationship with Casillas, and the results of the two seasons were not very satisfactory to the chairman, could he leave Real Madrid and take over the reins from Ferguson?
This statement was accepted by many, and when asked about Mourinho, the Portuguese made a joke.
'If he does invite me, he will put his strengths in charge of Manchester United and promise not to interfere in any other way after he leaves...... I'll think about it. ”
As soon as Mourinho's remarks were published, Ferguson replied to him.
"Die hard, I won't let him come to Old Trafford to force our goddess of victory."
……
As soon as the two fought, the headlines were finally renovated.
"Jose Mourinho shows his love for Manchester United, Ferguson flatly refuses: worried that he will not get along with Leander"
"The director supports Mourinho, and the Red Devils are divided internally"
Indeed, some executives have said that if you want to change the coach, it is best to come to a figure like Mourinho, who is determined and can quickly control the situation and avoid a situation where the group is leaderless.
Some people say that the meritorious manager should come to the town and make the players bow their heads.
Neither Ferguson nor David Gill agrees with this statement, and it seems that they have other candidates in mind.
Because of this bombshell news, the Premier League is already a mess, the media is noisy, Manchester United's change of manager has too wide an impact, and everyone is looking forward to knowing who the new arrivals are...... Leander didn't pay attention to it, the club came to an end, and he was ready to report on the national team, draw with Carlo Ancelotti, and aim for the European Championship.
At this time, the "Sun" revealed that Ferguson had met with Everton manager David Moyes at his home in Cheshire, and the meeting lasted for half a day, and Moyes left in high spirits, as if he had logged into Manchester.
This news is only accompanied by a recent photo of Moyes, most fans don't believe it, who knows, two days later, Everton officially announced the departure of meritorious coach Moyes, the club thanked him for his efforts, and hoped that he would be good in the future.
Moyes has been at Everton for ten years, he helped the Toffees beat the city rival Liverpool, and he has been very strong at home, the FA Cup and the English League Cup have gone far, Moyes's resume is not impressive, but it is not bad, his biggest problem is slow heating, losing consecutive seasons at the beginning, and the results will slowly improve after finding the feeling...... However, how can such qualifications be able to overpower Mourinho's green eyes with Ferguson?
Fans can't figure it out, and it's even more difficult to accept.
On the player's side, the captain heard the news earlier, and then Rooney also knew, and he and Leander met and wanted to talk about it, but found that his friend just listened to it casually, and didn't say good or bad.
"You didn't react to such a big thing?"
Leander blinked, what do you want to react?
"Isn't it all the same who will coach? As long as you don't put buses every day, don't cut salaries, don't default on wages, and don't deduct bonuses...... I'm okay with that. ”
Rooney was still familiar with Moyes, he came out of Everton, he didn't care, he wanted to hear what Leander had to say, and that's the answer; "I think the most worrying thing about the lord is you, and your heart is big enough."
Leander continued to wink: "I'm training positively and I'm in steady form, what's there to worry about?" ”
……
……
Of course, I'm worried that the newcomer's temper will blow you off.
It broke the lord's heart, but he didn't realize it at all.
Is!!
Rooney mentioned another thing, Kaka left Manchester at the end of the season, his return to Real Madrid is inevitable, there are too many changes this summer, and I don't know if the fans can stand it.
"With so much income this year, I won't even be willing to buy a midfielder, what are you worried about? The lord will definitely arrange things before leaving, and he will also recommend a buying plan to the new coach, rather than worrying about this kind of thing, or think about the European Cup, I looked at the schedule, our opponent in the first leg of the group stage is France. ”
In fact, the results of the draw have already come out, and Zidane is also very powerful, and he drew the most murderous group of death in recent years.
The four teams in Group B are: Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, and Portugal.
England were drawn from Group D, along with one of the hosts, Ukraine, as well as Sweden and France, which was not a bad draw.
Leander looked at the schedule, which kicked off on June 8, and England's turn was on the 11th, and the opponent France, who had won one World Cup and two European Championships, was a strong opponent. Leander has never played in France and doesn't know many French players, so I wanted to see the introduction and the squad.
Rooney really didn't know what to say to look at him like this.
Okay, okay, the bottom is coming in May, the European Championship is indeed coming, and it's good to focus.
