2-1！

Ebou crossed from a one-two with Rosicky on the right before the break, and Thierry Henry headed home from six yards out to help Arsenal score a face-saving goal. The win over Arsenal saw United take all three points away from home, leaving them nine points clear of second-placed Chelsea after 24 rounds. After the game, Ferguson attended the press conference with a smile: "This is a great victory on the road to the championship! We beat Arsenal, we got rid of Chelsea, the title belongs to Manchester United! ”

When Ferguson said this sentence at the beginning of the season, some people may still question it, thinking that Ferguson is talking big! But with most of the league past and nine points ahead of Chelsea, the big words have been interpreted by reporters as the big truth.

With a nine-point gap, Chelsea will have to expect the Reds to make mistakes and not lose games if they want to catch up. Counting on United to lose three games? Looking at the opponents in the remaining 14 rounds, who can you count on but Liverpool, Tottenham and Everton? Of course, Chelsea host Manchester United in mid-April, and that may be their last chance.

But who cares now?

3 tackles, 5 interceptions, 91% pass completion rate...... With such data, Yu Liang, who got the best in the audience, directly opened his own bottle of champagne in the dressing room. He didn't want to spend £10,000 or £20,000 on his team-mates to party in a pub, it wasn't worth it. However, after drinking the champagne, he still stuffed the empty bottle into his backpack as a keepsake.

Yu Liang's outstanding performance silenced the English reporters who had been babbling that Yu Liang deliberately injured Carrick in order to compete for the starting position, and they were there to praise Yu Liang's outstanding performance, saying that he was Carrick's successor, a top midfielder, the heart of Manchester United, and so on.

While praising Yu Liang, the reporters also deliberately compared Carrick and Yu Liang, so they returned to the original question: If Carrick was not injured, would Yu Liang get the opportunity to play?

"Yes!" Back in Manchester, when speaking to reporters, Ferguson gave a positive answer, "He's always been in my plan and you can see that he's done really well!" Do you think such a good player is not worthy of trust? ”

Looking at the praise of the media, even if he knows the urine of the media, Yu Liang's heart is still beautiful. But then the mood was interrupted by a shrill whistle.

"Speed! Velocity! Velocity! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Rush over! ”

"Damn Patton!"

glanced at Barton, who had a whistle on his neck on the sidelines, and in Yu Liang's eyes, he was a demon with fangs in his mouth and a death scythe in his hand. He now regretted listening to Patton's words, what a vigorous kick for five or six years.

Although the amount of training in the club is not very large, but after a long period of accumulation, in addition to the competition, even if Yu Liang's physical fitness is good, he will be tired! But in Barton's eyes, it never seemed that he would ever think about tiredness. His free time is used to the fullest, such as when he goes to the toilet, when he is asked to exercise his upper body strength, when he is in the shower, he exercises his balance, etc., and Barton is eager to break one minute into two minutes. Although he was very tired, Yu Liang slept in bed every night, but Yu Liang did not dare to have any complaints, because he could clearly feel his improvement.

Yu Liang performed well in the game, and nothing was more exciting than the Chinese media and the fans who supported him.

Manchester United's savior, defensive iron gate, Ferguson's hand-picked core and other words have been reported, and it seems that Manchester United will not be able to operate without Yu Liang overnight.

Fans who support Yu Liang can also use Yu Liang's performance at this time to fight back against the trolls who attacked Yu Liang before and said that Yu Liang had injured Carrick.

Yu Liang's performance is so good, is it necessary for him to do those small actions?

However, this point of view cannot wash away Yu Liang's suspicion in the eyes of trolls. Why? If Carrick hadn't been injured, Yu Liang wouldn't have been able to get the chance to start.

Yu Liang's fans, who were bent on fighting back, were dumbfounded, and the flame of excitement that had just been ignited was immediately extinguished.

And at this time, Carrick was interviewed by reporters: "The injury in training was just an accident, and it didn't have much to do with Yu Liang!" He's a pretty good player and you've seen his performances! Maybe after I give in, I'll really have to use some means to get a chance to play! ”

Carrick's half-joking words cleared Yu Liang of injuring his teammates.

When the excited Yu Liang's fans were about to fight back, they found that those trolls seemed to have all dived and drowned overnight, and there was no movement.

performed well and cleared the charge of injuring his teammates, Yu Liang's life was once again on a normal track.

In the FA Cup, Manchester United beat Portsmouth 2-1 to advance to the fifth round.

Manchester United came out on top in the league, beating visiting Watford 4-0. Also on the other side of White Hart Lane, they beat Tottenham by the same scoreline. Tottenham's hopes for Chelsea fans were unsuccessful in holding off Manchester United, with the gap at the top of the table still at nine.

Before I knew it, it was February 07, and Chinese New Year's Eve was approaching.

During this time, most of the factories, construction sites, and companies in China have begun to suspend work and prepare to celebrate the Spring Festival.

For football fans, now they can stay up late to watch the game without worrying about going to work the next day.

Sitting in the office and looking at the heavy snow outside the window, Lu Bing frowned.

Since Yu Liang publicly stated that he would not accept any media interviews, it has been difficult for them to obtain first-hand information, and even if he and Yu Liang have spoken several phone calls, they only agreed to chat with him when Yu Liang confirmed that he would not do interviews. In this way, seeing the continuous growth of global sports circulation, Lu Bing also felt the pressure from the leadership. What is the purpose of digging him, isn't it just for his personal relationship with Yu Liang? As a result, personal relationships are now not playing a role in the slightest.

Looking at the calendar and Manchester United's schedule, Lu Bing's frown relaxed.

In the next round, on February 10, Beijing time, Manchester United will host Charlton Athletic.

"Chinese Derby!"

After muttering, Lu Bing laughed, then returned to his seat, wrote a report, and left the office.

There are two versions of the origin of the word derby, one is from football and the other is from horse racing! But it is impossible to determine which source is correct. Slowly, however, the derby was extended to the world of sports, but in different contexts, the definition and scope of use of the derby were also different.

For example, the Chinese Derby!

This can often be seen in the sports pages of newspapers in recent years, but at first it was mainly about basketball, and the game between the teams of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi in the NBA will be crowned with the title of Chinese derby.

With the increasing number of foreign players in football, Chinese derbies have also begun to appear in the European league.

In the past, Sun Jihai's Manchester City and Li Tie sat in the Everton game, which was called the Chinese derby!

And what about this season?

There are not only Sun Jihai and Li Tie in the Premier League, but also Yu Liang and Dong Wang, as well as Zheng Zhi.

The media has been building momentum for the Chinese derby for a long time.

In October last year, he began to build momentum for the Chinese derby! At the time, Manchester United were travelling to Sheffield United in mid-November, and Li Tie joined Sheffield United at the start of the season.

The media is building momentum for this game, and the gimmick is huge. After all, Yu Liang's style of play is similar to Li Tie's, and at that time their sports weekly newspaper also published several articles, and he still remembers that one of the headlines was "Which Chinese player is stronger in defense". The result? Not only did Li Tie fail to enter the squad, but Yu Liang was also directly sent to the reserve team by Ferguson, causing fans' expectations of the Chinese derby to be disappointed.

But it doesn't matter, after Yu Liang started the Manchester United game against Chelsea, the media are building momentum for the second Chinese derby, which is also the famous Manchester derby in English football.

The overwhelming publicity has made many domestic fans look forward to the arrival of this game.

The result? Like the first Chinese derby they were expecting, it fell short again. Sun Jihai and Yu Liang were not able to make the squad for the game.

And now the long-awaited third Chinese derby is here.

With Zheng Zhi joining Charlton Athletic on loan during the winter break, there are five players on the Premier League line.

If they are all still playing in the Premier League next season, there will be 10 Chinese derbies a year alone, so what's so rare? But what can be done? Who told Chinese football that it couldn't work? If each of Europe's top five leagues has several Chinese players playing, and the level of the Chinese Super League can be compared with the five major leagues, they will not always advocate any Chinese derby. There's no way, it's going to be news, it's going to be circulating.

"You're going to London?"

Lu Bing glanced at the leader and nodded.

The report he just wrote was to apply to go to London to interview Zheng Zhi, and at the same time to see if he could get an exclusive interview with Yu Liang to prepare for the next Chinese derby.

"Also the Chinese Derby? Do you think it's likely? ”

Sports Zhou Bo doesn't need to worry about sales, but who would dislike their large circulation? Especially now that global sports are still on the rise at home.

However, the leaders are not looking forward to any Chinese derby, and they have been shouting this slogan for many years. But there are very few Chinese derbies staged in the Premier League, and you can count them on a few fingers.

"It's not the same. The first two times Yu Liang was not in good shape, and it was normal for him not to be able to enter the starter! And Li Tie and Sun Jihai, as you know, have been plagued by injuries for a long time, and it is estimated that they will not have too many opportunities for the whole season! But Zheng Zhi is different, Charlton is now deeply troubled by relegation, and they need Zheng Zhi to organize and dispatch in the midfield. And Zheng Zhi has been training with the team for more than a month in the past, and I think he is very likely to get the opportunity to play in the near future. Now that Yu Liang is in very good shape, Carrick is injured, and Ferguson's first choice will definitely be Yu Liang. So I think it's very likely that there will be a Chinese derby in the next round!
