57 Gains and losses

"Hello, I'm David Beckham."

"David Beckham? Hello. ”

Jack was surprised at first, but didn't make a fuss. David Beckham is a superstar in English football, and he is also in a relationship with Victoria, a member of the world-class idol group, so he is very famous.

But it's all fiction for Jack.

Jack is a referee, and it is okay to show favor to a promising player like David Beckham, and there is no need to be more enthusiastic. Because no matter how famous Beckham is and how much money he makes, he must obey the referee's judgment on the court.

It's like Nelson, who sent off David Beckham at the World Cup, said after the game: "As a referee, you have to use courage to make your own judgment, everyone is watching you." The slightest hesitation can make a big mistake, you don't have to be afraid of the fame of the stars, the referee is the god on the pitch. ”

This is the famous whistle.

No matter how big a referee is in world football, he will be under pressure from famous coaches and superstars, and he will be influenced by them. It's like enforcing the law in the Premier League, and the complaints of the Bolton coach and captain are certainly not as stressful as the complaints of the Manchester United coach and captain. The referee will give more weight to United's complaint than to Bolton's. It's just that those world-class whistles are less affected, and those average referees are more affected.

"I'm calling to thank you."

Beckham is having a really bad time right now. Even Beckham does not dare to return to England now, and has already run to the United States to receive comfort from Victoria.

It's really that the current English media and fans have too much resentment towards Beckham, and extreme fans can't wait to strangle Beckham. Bugging the phone of Beckham's home, making threatening phone calls to Beckham's home, sending threatening letters to Beckham. And not once or twice, but mass intimidation. So Beckham was scared, and even Beckham wanted to leave Manchester United and leave England.

At this time, Jack was heard supporting himself in the newspaper, although Beckham did not know who Jack Lee was at first. But soon he learns about Jack, a referee from the lower leagues. Of course, he also knows that Jack is a star of hope in the refereeing circle, and a rising star in the English refereeing world.

But it has nothing to do with any of that. Beckham has nothing but gratitude in his heart.

In the one-sided comments, few people really dared to come out to support Beckham, and even many teammates in the Manchester United team were silent, not daring to touch the anger of English football at this time. If there's one person who is trying to protect David Beckham, it's Alex Ferguson, the current manager of Manchester United.

In fact, there are also some people who have a good relationship with Beckham who call to comfort Beckham. Including the famous Premier League referee Bol, he called Beckham to comfort Beckham as soon as possible.

But comfort is comfort, they will definitely not support Beckham in front of the media under the current circumstances. It's not easy to explain a couple of sentences to Beckham once in a while.

Therefore, seeing Jack killing in the "Sun" and fighting with other English football bigwigs, Beckham is really grateful to Jack from the bottom of his heart. When people are helpless, they always want to be able to grasp the life-saving straw. It is precisely because of this that Beckham ran to the United States in the hope of being comforted by Victoria.

Grateful.

More gratitude than usual. If it were normal times, Beckham would have been so criticized, and many people would have helped him a long time ago. But now it is different, and there are very few voices supporting him. Jack is the most straightforward.

So Beckham called Jack.

"No, I don't. I'm a referee and from my point of view, your foul is really stupid. But I don't think you're to blame for the failures of the England national team, and I'm sure you'll be able to contribute more to the world of English football in the future. That's all. ”

On the other end of the line is David Beckham, Manchester United's main right midfielder, a superstar in English football. plus the love affair with Victoria, the fame in English football

Very big.

And Jack is just a referee in the lower leagues, but Jack doesn't have any flattery.

"Either way, I want to thank you."

Hearing Jack's faint words, Beckham was stunned for a moment, and then quickly smiled. Beckham is very grateful, very grateful, but there is indeed some underestimation of Jack in his heart.

Regardless of whether Jack is a future star in English football or whatever, he is now just a referee in the lower leagues. Jack's current salary for a year is less than a day's salary for David Beckham. In terms of income, Jack's annual income is at most one-third of Beckham's daily income.

But he didn't expect Jack to be more indifferent than he imagined.

"It's fine. I love watching your game and I hope you don't get affected by this incident. ”

"Yes. I'll call you Jack. ”

"Yes."

Beckham is about five months older than Jack, both in 1975, but on different birthdays. It's also considered a peer.

"Jack, when I get back to England, please have a drink."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

After putting down the phone, Jack smiled. How far Beckham will be able to go in the future, Jack does not know. From the current English football scene, there are still a lot of new stars.

But there are only two people who have attracted the most media attention, David Beckham and Owen. The other players of Manchester United's 92 generation, Paul Scholes and Gary Neville, although they are all main players of the national team, are still not as popular as David Beckham and Owen.

Jack, of course, hopes that Beckham can go higher and higher in the future. It's good to sell him today, and the higher his achievements in the future, the higher the return.

"David Beckham's phone call?"

Brett Vaughn asked curiously, looking at Jack. Jack's role model is a decisive referee like Nelson. He's just sending off a supernova like David Beckham.

In the future, Jack hopes that he can have the opportunity to send off international superstars such as Ronaldo and Alan Shearer, so that he can appear bullish. Therefore, Jack did not have excessive affection for Beckham on the phone.

But Brett Vaughn is different. He doesn't have the "ideals" of Jack, so he's still curious about Beckham.

"Yes. Say yes to thank me. ”

"Huh. I don't know if he can beat this time, maybe he will fall once. ”

"I think he's in good shape on the phone."

"Didi-Di-"

Jack and Brett Vaughn had barely spoken when another call came from their phone. As soon as Jack turned on the phone, a strong voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Judge Jack Lee, I'm Alex Ferguson."

"Hello."

Talking to Beckham, Jack was indifferent. But when he heard that it was Ferguson who called him, Jack unconsciously sat up straight. This is definitely not a conscious action on the part of Jack, but an unconscious action.

Alex Ferguson.

He is definitely the best manager in English football right now. There are many aspects to this awesomeness.

First of all, in terms of records, the Premier League has been established for six years. In the past six years, except for Blackburn, who won a Premier League title in 95, and Arsenal won the Premier League title in the season just ended, the remaining four Premier League titles were won by Manchester United. Manchester United was a veritable Premier League hegemon since its inception.

And Ferguson, who has brought such outstanding results, is the best manager in the Premier League at the moment.

It's his personal achievements and abilities. In addition, his strength lies in the fact that he also achieved amazing results when he was coaching at Aberdeen Club in Scotland. At that time, many of his coaching staff at Aberdeen and his players had already started to break into the English league. Including those who are coaches in the Premier League, League One, and League Two, there are not a few of his disciples. It's a huge network that will support Ferguson in important moments.

The last great thing is that Ferguson has his back to Manchester United, who is the manager of Manchester United. Although Liverpool is the number one giant in England in history, Manchester United is now the hegemon in the Premier League. Manchester United also have a heavy task on their shoulders.

That is, Manchester United has to work hard for the Premier League, for English football. Since the "Heysel tragedy" was banned by UEFA, English football has been isolated by European football, and has been completely pulled down by many leagues in European football. Therefore, if the Premier League wants to return to European football and return to its former strength, then the Premier League hegemon Manchester United is of course the main force. Therefore, it is inevitable that the FA will take care of Manchester United in many ways in order for Manchester United to be able to compete for the Premier League.

This is one thing, plus Manchester United's top management also has positions in the FA. In this way, Manchester United is a very special club in the Premier League.

All things add up, Ferguson is a very good manager in the Premier League.

"Judge Jack Lee, thank you for speaking for David."

"I just think the criticism is too serious right now and I haven't done anything."

"Thank you anyway."

Ferguson spoke English with a Scottish accent and spoke very quickly. And when he speaks, he completely treats Jack as a junior. Jack was a little angry, but he didn't care. Because my current self is indeed too low-level.

If Jack now has Webb's status, Ferguson probably won't be like that. Of course, if the current Jack is Bol's status, then Ferguson will even treat Jack as an equal.

"We'll have time to have a drink together later."

"Okay."

Hanging up Ferguson's phone, Jack laughed. Although Jack does not want to be the referee of Ferguson and Manchester United, a good relationship with Ferguson and Manchester United will also be of great benefit to Jack's future refereeing career.

I'm off to a good start, and I don't know when I'll be able to use it.
