Thank you for the great reward of Deep White Moonlight!! This chapter is more !!

——————————————————

The Gunners lost to Chelsea at the top of the table in a crucial battle and began to gradually focus on the Champions League; Manchester United's situation is the opposite, with the Champions League group stage exit forcing the old man to focus on the league.

The two teams that love and kill each other are like a pair of difficult brothers, and they have encountered troubles that cannot be resolved in a short period of time.

In fact, Manchester United are not only in deep danger on the pitch, but also under pressure off the pitch.

The Glazers certainly didn't expect things to be so unsmooth in the first few months.

Glazer's business plan is based on Manchester United finishing in the top four of the league every year and reaching the round of 16 in the Champions Cup. That didn't seem excessive. But now, Manchester United have gone too far, making trouble inevitable. The Champions League goal has been frustrated, and the top four in the league is hardly guaranteed.

An important component of Americans' business plans is called the "4x4 management plan." This means that the club has four sponsors at a time, each of which has to sponsor £4 million a year.

But now, telecommunications company Vodafone has decided to part ways early with Manchester United, with his four-year contract from 2004 to 2008 ending at the end of the season. The loss is not just in the £9 million a year in revenue, but in the fact that many big companies have increased their vigilance to work with Manchester United.

In addition, the three New York-based hedge funds borrowed at the time of the Glazer takeover (£27.5bn) will also be a major force in the downturn when United are struggling.

The period from August to July 2007 was the so-called "trial period" in the contract between Red Football (the company used by Glazer to buy Manchester United). In the meantime, if the operating profit of Red Football falls short of the expected 85%, then these hedge funds will begin to have power over Manchester United.

Initially, they will be allowed to appoint 25 directors in Red Football, and by August 2010 they will likely receive a 30 stake in Glazer's shares. These hedge fund interest can be as high as $20 per year, and Glazer's profit plan at Manchester United can be ruined by these interest departments if he is not careful. Now Manchester United is undoubtedly heading for the edge of the cliff.

Therefore, even from the perspective of the club's survival, Manchester United need to get out of their current decline as soon as possible.

It's not that you have to win the league title from Chelsea, but at least you have to finish second. Not being able to make it in the group stage of next season's Champions League would be a huge disaster. United still have time before the real catastrophe strikes, but it's certainly running out.

The old lord has always been a hero to the team, and this time the angry fans turned the finger on the Glazer family. But because the other party is the owner, the fans have to vent their anger on the players.

In the last game of the Champions League group stage, Manchester United lost 1-2 to Benfica and was eliminated.

In this game, Xiao Xiaoluo's willful performance in Lisbon may not only cause him to be punished by UEFA's record, but also criticized by the team's veterans after the game.

Against Benfica, Ryan Giggs sent a brilliant pass to Gary Neville in the first half to help his team take the lead; However, Ronaldo was a little disrespectful of tactical discipline and repeatedly lost possession, which led to Manchester United winning in half an hour.

Even when he was taken off the field, he gave the Benfica fans a middle finger.

The first to be substituted in the game was Ryan Giggs, who angrily asked assistant manager Queiroz when he left the game: "You replace me, why don't you replace him?!" ”

In addition, new captain Gary Neville scolded Ronaldo for losing his position several times on the field, Ruud van Nistelrooy couldn't help but criticize Ronaldo for being foolish when he came off the pitch, and Alan Smith scolded Ronaldo for being "selfish" after returning to the dressing room. This is the second time Smith has clashed with Ronaldo, who has also been harshly criticised for the Portuguese after being held to a draw away by Fulham last season.

But Queiroz, a compatriot, still defended Ronaldo: "We all agreed that he wasn't the best that night, the game was very intense, the young players felt pressure, it's normal to have emotional swings, and this experience will make him stronger in the future." ”

Queiroz even thinks that the Benfica fans are unfair to Ronaldo: "When he was in the Portuguese national team, the same fans gave him encouraging applause, and he couldn't get used to the contrast. ”

During the game, every time Xiao Xiao Luo touched the ball, there were deafening boos and ridicule from the stands. Ronaldo's explanation for this is: "If the Benfica fans were not so excessive, I would have reacted differently, but they are just too nasty. ”

In fact, how could Xiao Xiaoluo not know that it was his arbitrary actions that brought disaster to the team?

But Tang Wu's recent limelight is too prosperous, and Xiao Xiaoluo wants to seize the time to prove himself; At the very least, the gap between him and Tang Wu must be narrowed.

It's a pity that due to the ridicule of Benfica fans, Xiao Luo was smashed.

At this moment, he was also deeply trapped in self-blame.

UEFA has now received a formal complaint from Benfica, whose club spokesman said that "Ronaldo lacks the respect he deserves for Benfica fans." Television footage and Anglo-Portuguese newspapers captured Ronaldo's unwritten gestures.

UEFA confirmed the matter, "We have received reports from the relevant parties and will discuss next week whether to take measures against it." "If punished, Ronaldo will be suspended for Manchester United's European competition next season – if United make it to Europe as scheduled.

After exiting the Champions League, Manchester United went to a low point.

The team is not compatible, and the team's results are stabilized by the sworn enemies.

While the old rivals Gunners are in much the same league situation as they are at the moment, Red Devils fans can't afford to be like the ostriches who have lost sight of Chelsea and Liverpool's impressive record in all competitions.

This season, the sky above the Premier League is about to change!

After returning from Switzerland, the Red Army was faced with a devil's race!

This season, Liverpool have played two games less, but due to the Club World Cup, the FA had to reschedule the Reds' game time.

On 21 December, Liverpool won again at the Riverside Stadium.

Tang Wu and Steven Gerrard were both on the bench, and in order to avoid the glory of the Club World Cup, Reyna had to hold his teeth and defend Liverpool until the last minute in front of goal.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score was fixed at 3-2, and Liverpool relied on the tenacious fighting spirit of the players to shake off the opponent for the third time and reached the semi-finals of the League Cup with Manchester United, Arsenal and Wigan Athletic.

As for the league leaders, the Blues, were knocked out of the League Cup in the third round. In this way, the magic bird has more time for the players to adjust and fight for a more important championship.

Two days later, Liverpool had their 17th round of replay against Sunderland, a game that should have been played a week ago.

Looking at the tired players, Bei Bald still discharged a set of semi-main lineups. Relying on Tang Wu's high reception, the score was fixed at 0-0. Despite a draw, Tang Wu's clean sheet record this season still stands.

On the night after the game, Tang Wu wrapped a bath towel around him and lay on the bed enjoying the touch of his girlfriend's fingertips.

Although Tang Wu's back is not full of bullet marks like the soldiers who have been on the battlefield, nor is it full of scars like street gangsters, his back is still "scarred".

Some of these injuries are from minor surgical scars, and some are red, swollen and bruised from bruising. As a goalkeeper, Tang Wu's back injury was no worse than that of his predecessors in his thirties, which "benefited" from Tang Wu's devilish training day after day.

Every time he saw his boyfriend's "scarred" back, Zhou Haohao felt a heartache.

"Honey, here, does it hurt?"

"Hmm."

What answered her was Tang Wu's muffled snort.

Well, it means that it doesn't hurt, and if Tang Wu is in pain, the whole body will react.

Because he was lying face down, Tang Wu's voice was very nasal. Even so, Zhou Hao could hear that Tang Wu was already on the verge of falling asleep at this time.

Spreading safflower oil all over Tang Wu's back, Zhou Haohao's fingers lifted the bath towel around Tang Wu's waist.

Just a light pull, the content behind the boyfriend is in full view.

"Tang Tang" Zhou Hao let out a light breath and grabbed Xiao Tang Wu from behind with his hand.

Just as Zhou Haohao wanted to go further, a hand with six fingers grabbed her wrist.

"Don't, dear," Tang Wu came out of the pillow with a thick nasal voice, "The next month or two is very important, and I can't waste a drop of energy on other things. ”

"yes, I see."

Zhou Hao responded, his eyes full of distress. After sighing softly, he pulled the quilt over his shoulders and leaned down to lie gently on his boyfriend's back.

When the sweet pear vortex had just touched Tang Wu's neck, Tang Wu's heavy snoring was heard.
