Chapter 80: The Door

Lin Sen thought that he would not come, but he should come, and he will still come after all, although it is a little late.

At the beginning of February, "The Sun" was the first to expose the shocking news, saying that England's current captain John Terry was cheating with his French model girlfriend Vanessa, a national team teammate and former club teammate Bridge. Given The Sun's notoriety, the report caused an uproar, but many people still expressed doubts about the veracity of the matter. However, this is just the beginning. Immediately afterward, The Sun's Sunday edition of The News of the World traced the inside information, saying that Terry had impregnated Vanessa and secretly had an abortion...... The most famous friend wife in the history of English football has officially broken out.

The impact is obvious, especially for both parties.

After the matter was confirmed, it took only twelve minutes for England national team coach Capello to remove Terry as captain of the national team, and announced that he would never let Terry captain during his tenure, and the FA supported Capello's decision for the first time, even Terry understood Capello's decision, because it was obvious that he was not suitable to continue to be the captain of the national team with more symbolic meaning, and this hype, It is having a negative impact on the England team, which is about to go to the World Cup in South Africa. Unlike Fabio Capello, Carlo Ancelotti, another Italian manager, refused to sit down on the issue on the grounds that the player's private life did not affect the team, insisting that John Terry would remain Chelsea's captain.

Unlike John Terry, who was referred to as a thousand people, Bridge, as a victim, has the sympathy of the whole of England, of course, this does not include some Chelsea people, helping relatives and not helping them, has always been a football tradition. Linsen, who has long known the end of the story, is no exception, and Carlo Ancelotti is backing his captain, and Linsen naturally has no reason to ignore his players, before he is about to travel to Amsterdam in the Netherlands for the first leg of the Europa League knockout round. Lin Sen was interviewed by the Manchester Evening News after the press conference and responded to the matter for the first time.

'As a manager, I don't interfere in the private lives of the players, that's very clear. Wayne is going through one of the toughest moments of his life, and I hope he can come back from the blow as best he can. Quitting the England squad? I support any decision he makes! ”

Lin Sen's response is obviously not what Capello wants. Because after Bridge announced his retirement from the England team, many celebrities began to persuade Bridge to take national affairs seriously, and Capello even called Linson in the hope that he could help persuade Bridge to retract this decision. Linson understands Capello's frustration, with England's first-choice left-back Ashley Cole suffering an ankle injury against Everton. The post-match examination is a broken ankle and he will be out of action for three months, although he can still catch up with the World Cup, but only God knows what the state is, in this case, Bridges is particularly important, but Capello did not expect that now Bridges will have this kind of thing, and the other protagonist is still his captain.

But I'm sorry. Lin Sen didn't plan to help Capello at this time. Capello has his concerns, and he has his concerns.

The reason why this friend's wife door has such a huge impact is that even the British Prime Minister has made a statement about it is purely because of the identities of the two parties. After Capello dismissed John Terry as captain of the national team. Many people felt that this was already a very severe punishment, in fact, Capello was never a defender, but after the incident, almost half of the England team sided with Bridge. This forced Capello to respond, and don't think that the dismissal of the captain is such a severe punishment. In 82, a similar thing happened to the French national team, the team's left midfielder Larios and the famous Platini's wife had an affair, what was the final result? Larios was expelled from the national team and was never hired. It is only necessary to put two things together, and it is not difficult to see the difference, Bridge and Terry, Larios and Platini, which is more important, at a glance.

So, don't think that the victim can get everyone's sympathy, there are some things that cannot be changed. Unlike Capello, Ancelotti's attitude is clear without considering the irresponsible attitude of the outside world: it doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, Terry is my captain.

Compared with Capello, Linson played the same role in this matter as Ancelotti, so labor and management should not be peacemakers. Capello, since you are reluctant to give up Terry, then you have to give up Bridge, I will help you persuade? This kind of thankless work, you might as well do it with someone else. I wish a few more people would quit the national team.

Of course, there is one thing that Linson and Capello have in common, or have been the same, and that is that Bridges can overcome this hurdle and bounce back as much as possible. Although in Lin Sen's memory, it seems that Bridge's state has almost deteriorated after this blow. That's why Linson put a question mark on Bridge's name when he first took charge of Manchester City.

Lin Sen didn't bother to talk to Bridges about it, and after the incident, although it was obvious that Bridge's mental state didn't seem to be very good, he still showed up on time every day, which was enough for a head coach. No one wants others to interfere in their private life, especially in this kind of thing, sometimes they are just doing a disservice by being smart, so a normal situation is the best state, whether it is Manchester City or Bridge. Persuasion is still left to professionals, such as Ariel.

As everyone knows, Ariel is also worried about this, and complained to Lin Sen in private within two days, which is different from the football circle she imagined, it has only been less than a season, and Lin Sen has given her several problems, first Ade, then Suarez, and now, Bridge...... It's not so busy to open a psychiatric clinic.

In this regard, Lin Sen could only smile bitterly-

Football is still so fantastic, but the neighbours are no longer noisy.

For Alex Ferguson, the current situation could not be better for Manchester United, moral considerations aside. In the league, Manchester United are currently two points behind Manchester City, six points behind Chelsea, and there are still 12 rounds in the league, all of which are possible. It couldn't be better.

It's none of your business. On the surface, the vast majority of people sympathize with Bridges and then criticize Terry, but in reality, there are probably no fewer who are ridiculous about it. Football is a rough activity, and it has always been taboo for players to joke with each other, where did so many defenders come from? Ferguson never said anything about it, he just needs to make sure that nothing like this happens to his own team. Now, who else would criticize him for interfering in the private lives of his players?

At this time, Ferguson did not know that something similar had happened to his players, of course, this is a later story.

Compared with these off-the-field things, Ferguson found himself having to admit one thing, that is, his neighbor is undergoing a transformation.

The reason for this thinking is not because Ferguson lost to Linson in the first leg of the game between the two sides, although that game did make Ferguson angry, so that he even missed the post-match press conference, for which Ferguson was even warned by the FA, but that game, after all, is only a league worth three points, what really arouses Ferguson's alarm is that Manchester City this season is gradually turning their off-field advantage into an on-field advantage, and it seems that they will never be satisfied.

If a team spends £100 million and they still haven't won anything after the season, you can call them 'noisy', just like last season. And if a team spends 200 million and they lift the trophy after the season, then you have to say it another way, you can say that they are extravagant, you can say that they are wasteful, but they can't be noisy. That's the season.

The quality of Manchester City's reinforcements this season is so high that even Ferguson has to feel incredible, and Ferguson, who has been in charge of the Red Empire for more than 20 years, knows very well that such large-scale reinforcements as Manchester City in the summer, not to mention all of them are brilliant, and half of them can play at a price, which is worth a drink to celebrate. But the fact is that Manchester City's recruitment has not failed. At least, in Ferguson's view, he doesn't see any of City's additions this year being redundant. Even Adriano, who was previously considered "abolished", now has the meaning of coming back to life.

Robben, David Silva and other famous players aside, several other previously unknown players, although not as brilliant as those famous players, but also have many shining points. The simple difference is that at this time last season, people talked about Manchester City the most about "parallel goods", and now, people are talking about madness.

Unconsciously, they may even forget that they have actually acquiesced to one point, that is, Manchester City's reinforcements this season are at least worth the money.

What was once a noisy neighbor has become a dangerous neighbor.

February could be a defining month for the Premier League.

Because the top four teams will usher in the baptism of European competition this month. Except for Arsenal, which may be easier because of their opponent in the Champions League, Porto, the other three teams will face several tough battles in the next half month.

Manchester United's Champions League opponents are AC Milan, Chelsea's opponents are Inter Milan, and then they have the same opponent this month, which is Manchester City. The difference is that Manchester United and Manchester City are competing for the Carabao Cup this season, and this conversation between Chelsea and Manchester City is likely to affect the Premier League title trend this season.

The toughest fixture is Manchester City, because in addition to Manchester United and Chelsea, although their European opponents are weak, they also have a league opponent, which is Liverpool, and no matter which opponent they play against, they have to play one more game anyway, who makes you operate on multiple lines.
