"What smells so good?"

When they got home, Yu Liang and King Dong smelled a burst of fragrance and wafted out of the kitchen.

"Braised pig's trotters! Do you need to think about this? A sucker! ”

With that, King Dong rushed directly to the kitchen, wanting to taste it.

After sniffing the smell hard, Yu Liang also put down his backpack and rushed directly to the kitchen. He hadn't eaten Chinese food in a long time, let alone braised pork trotters!

But as soon as they rushed to the kitchen door, they were stopped by Lele!

"Hehe, the weather is nice today!"

King Dong immediately strangled Yu Liang's neck and played there haha.

Yu Liang didn't expect King Dong to see Lele like a mouse seeing a cat, and after breaking free of King Dong's arm, he laughed there.

"You're laughing at you!"

King Dong immediately chased after Yu Liang, and the two of them immediately made a fuss in the living room, just like two children.

Lele, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, saw this scene, smiled, and then returned to the kitchen to continue preparing dinner.

"Alright, alright, stop!"

When he saw Barton listening to the wine bottle swaying in the living room, Yu Liang immediately stopped the frolic.

Regardless of the strong smell of alcohol on Barton's body, he walked directly to Barton's side and asked with some excitement: "Barton, have you ever been a head coach?" ”

"The manager? What manager? ”

Barton asked Yu Liang in a bit of confusion, and then tilted his head and poured himself a drink.

A wine burp erupted, and a radius of several meters was full of strong wine.

Yu Liang immediately held his breath and took a few steps back.

"Football manager! How else would you know Ferguson's tactical arrangement? ”

In the away game against Aston Villa on the 23rd, when Yu Liang was about to play after warming up, he was called back to the bench by Ferguson, and then replaced Fletcher with O'Shea.

Ferguson's move made Yu Liang very uncomfortable.

However, winning the halfway championship diluted some of the dullness in his heart. But when he got home that night, he was still in a low mood.

Everything that happened on the sidelines of the game was presented to Barton and King Dong through the camera.

A player who is experiencing a crisis of confidence was replaced by the head coach before he came on the field, do you think Yu Liang's heart can feel good?

So when Yu Liang returned home that night, King Dong immediately came over to comfort him. However, King Dong played a very small role, but it was a passage from Barton that made Yu Liang's mood better.

"Why did Ferguson replace you with O'Shea immediately after Scholes received a yellow card, have you thought about it?"

Yu Liang really didn't think about this question, he looked at Barton and shook his head blankly.

Barton looked at Yu Liang and shook his head blankly, immediately patted his head, and said with some hatred: "Oh, God! Don't you use your brains? Can't you see such an obvious adjustment? Is this a preparation for your next game? You're still there sighing! ”

"Will I be able to play in the next game?"

"Nonsense! Paul Scholes is booked and suspended, do you think Ferguson will hand over the task of organising the attack to O'Shea? Or is it Fletcher, or Alan Smith? ”

Listening to Barton's words, Yu Liang shook his head directly.

Compared with O'Shea, Fletcher and Alan Smith, Yu Liang still maintains confidence in organizing the attack.

"That's right! So, you will be the heart of the midfield in the next game! To protect the midfield, Ferguson is likely to have two defensive midfielders to partner you. This is very likely to be a midfield three, pushing Ryan Giggs and Ronaldo up front and forming an attacking trident with Rooney......"

At that moment, Barton was like the manager of Manchester United, where he analysed and arranged tactics according to the actual situation of the team and the situation of the opponent.

Although Barton's analysis is the head, Barton is not at the helm of the Red Devils after all, so Yu Liang is skeptical of Barton's words.

But when he arrived at Carrington this morning, all doubts were shattered.

Barton's analysis and tactics were at odds with Ferguson's, but they were inseparable.

"What's so great about Alex Ferguson, give me a Manchester United and I'll do better than him!"

Barton's tone was very loud, but at this moment, Yu Liang did not doubt the possibility of this.

After saying that, Barton fell asleep directly on the sofa, which made Yu Liang a little crazy.

Originally, he was also going to let Barton support him, so that he could have a good performance in tomorrow's game, to stabilize his position?

Now that I'm asleep, I can only give up.

"Who the hell is this Barton?"

After coming for so many days, King Dong was very curious about Patton.

When he first met Patton, King Dong, like Yu Liang, looked down on this drunken guy. But after watching Yu Liang's training, he became interested in Barton, and hoped that Barton could develop an effective training plan for him. It turned out to be rejected by Barton. And the tactical analysis of the night before yesterday made him even more admired.

When he was in Carrington today, he was still trying to figure out a way with Yu Liang to get Barton to develop a training plan for him.

"Barton is Barton!"

……

Dinner is a sumptuous Chinese meal, not only braised pork trotters, but also braised pork, beef pot and stir-fried bacon.

When the dishes are served, the aroma immediately fills the room.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Asking about the tangy aroma, King Dong and Yu Liang couldn't help but drool.

Rushing to the restaurant, the two of them grabbed a piece of pig's trotters and ate it there.

"Not bad, not bad! Not bad indeed! ”

Yu Liang gave Lele a thumbs up there while eating. Today's dishes are all cooked by Lele alone.

Although the braised pork trotters were very delicious, Yu Liang didn't eat much, and he tasted every dish.

After all, he still has a game tomorrow, so it won't be good if he gets into a stomach.

King Dong could have tasted the delicious Chinese food there without any scruples, but after seeing that Yu Liang stopped eating, he didn't move his chopsticks, and instead ate the nutritious meal that Qiao Lei had prepared a long time ago.

As for the table of dishes made by Lele, they were finally wiped out by Jorei and the awakened Barton.

……

At 3pm sharpening on December 26, 2006, the match started on time at Old Trafford.

Before the start of the game, Yu Liang and they got the good news that defending champions Chelsea were held to a draw at home by Reading.

That would extend the margin to four points if they win this game. So before the game, in the dressing room, Ferguson demanded that he must win this game.

Chelsea were held to a draw by Reading and the morale of Manchester United's players was boosted.

Just 75 seconds into the game, Park Ji-sung's shot threatened Wigan Athletic's goal.

This is in contrast to Barton's prediction, where Ferguson did not use Ryan Giggs and Cristiano Ronaldo up front, but instead used Park Ji-sung, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Wayne Rooney.

Park Ji-sung's shot set off a frenzy of Manchester United's attack.

With Manchester United attacking, Wigan Athletic struggled to organise an effective counter-attack.

Wigan Athletic, which is difficult to organize an effective attack, directly shrinks the defense and plays counterattacks.

In the face of Wigan Athletic's stubborn defense, Manchester United did not get a good chance either, and many shots were blocked on goal.

Yu Liang, who is responsible for the team's organization, at the beginning of the game, still adhered to Barton's good words, reduced the touch time in the midfield, and chose to play the ball quickly.

However, after Wigan Athletic chose to shrink in defense, Yu Liang, who had no interference in the midfield, began to deliberately increase the time with the ball.

His calm deployment in the midfield made Manchester United's attack like a tidal wave, constantly impacting Wigan Athletic's backline.

In the 31st minute, Yu Liang's direct pass directly penetrated Wigan's defense and sent the ball directly to the right rib of the penalty area.

Rooney in front of the field stepped forward, burst into the right rib of the penalty area to catch up with the football, and then kicked the ball wide of the post.

It was United's best chance to play.

In the latter part of the first half, United were unable to find the back of the net despite a number of threatening shots.

In the end, both sides returned to the dressing room with a 0-0 score.

In the second half, Ferguson directly replaced Fletcher with Ronaldo, forming a 442 formation.

This substitution was immediate, in the 47th minute, Ronaldo received a corner kick from the right side and scored with a direct header, rewriting the score to 1-0!

Shortly after Cristiano Ronaldo's goal, Manchester United had another chance.

Park Ji-sung completed a counter-attack in the penalty area, but was brought down by the opposing player, and the referee awarded a penalty directly.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who took the penalty, scored twice to help the team extend the lead, 2-0!

After playing three minutes and scoring twice to give the team the lead, Ronaldo was in hot form.

With the in-form Cristiano Ronaldo in front, Manchester United's attack was more calm, and the Reds extended the score again nine minutes later.

After Ronaldo attracted the defense in the front, he crossed from the right side of the penalty area, Rooney headed the ball in the middle, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who was outflanked at the back point, scored a goal, 3-0!

After establishing the winning advantage, United's attack slowed down.

However, Wigan Athletic, who had been blinded, were not able to organize an effective counter-attack until the end of the game with a penalty kick to save their face.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored twice, was the man of the match and followed Alex Ferguson to the post-match press conference.

At the press conference, Ronaldo unceremoniously said to reporters: "I am the best player in the world! ”

Although these words may sound arrogant, they are not based on excellent performance.

Compared to Ronaldo's arrogance, Ferguson's words are too much.

After the win, he will not let go of this opportunity to squeeze Mourinho, "Mourinho said last week that we would drop points before the end of the season, but he didn't realise that he would, that's the natural way of football. ”

"The league is a test of continuity, as long as you don't lose too many points, you can win the championship!" Having opened the gap between him and Chelsea, Ferguson is confident of regaining the league title: "We had a great first half of the season and as long as we continue to be in this form, it won't be difficult for us to win the title! (To be continued.) )
