Chapter 2: Surprise

"Sir, your call really surprised me. ≀”

As soon as the phone was connected, Lin Sen said with a smile, with some affinity in his voice that he had not had before.

In the past, one of the two was the manager of Manchester United and the other was the manager of Manchester City, although there is a clear distinction between public and private inside and outside the stadium, but the two teams are mortal enemies after all, which cannot be changed in any way. And now, both of them have stepped down, and without these two identities, the conversation between the two people is obviously more comfortable.

"Didn't bother your honeymoon, did you?" Ferguson on the other end of the phone laughed.

"Sir, I've been married for a year." In the face of Ferguson's joke, Lin Sen shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Haha." Ferguson laughed heartily, and he could hear that after retirement, the old man was in good shape, and after laughing, Ferguson then asked meaningfully, "So, are you going to come back?" ”

"Still thinking about it." Lin Sen was silent for a moment and said.

"Back to Manchester City?" Ferguson asked again.

"Not necessarily."

"Not necessarily?" Ferguson was stunned.

Back to Manchester City? Ferguson asked, but this does not mean that he really thinks so, for no other reason, but he also thinks that there is no need to change the coach of Manchester City at the moment. Of course, if he just asked casually, it wasn't, but he didn't expect Lin Sen to give such an answer.

"Looks like Manchester City approached you?" Ferguson thought for a moment and immediately asked again.

This is not difficult to understand, if even he thinks that Manchester City has no possibility of changing the coach, then, he does not believe that Lin Sen will have so much confidence that he can return to Manchester City at any time, then, the reason why Lin Sen will answer like this is actually not very likely, and Manchester City took the initiative to contact Lin Sen, which is the most likely.

Because. Not necessary does not mean that it is not possible.

"I didn't say that." Lin Sen smiled, not at all surprised that Ferguson would say a word.

It's also not hard to understand that just one look at Ferguson's resume tells you that there is nothing to hide from Ferguson when it comes to football.

"Are Manchester City really planning to sack Manuel Pellegrini?" Ferguson was a little surprised, "I thought he did a good job. ”

"He's doing a good job." "So, he's still the manager of Manchester City. ”

"So......" Ferguson frowned, suddenly coming to his senses. Then his eyes widened.

Not a manager?

……

After a few minutes, Ferguson put down the phone, his expression suddenly becoming a little complicated.

It's been a year since I retired.

Alex Ferguson said that after retirement, he should leave more time for his family, but it has been engraved in his bones, how can he forget it?

Retirement, Ferguson has had such thoughts more than once, and has never hidden this idea of his own, but every time. He regretted it because he couldn't imagine life without Manchester United, or rather, he couldn't imagine Manchester United without him. But he will retire one day. And this day is this time last year.

As it turned out, Ferguson was right.

Manchester United fans miss him immensely now, which is something Ferguson would love to see. It was the last thing he wanted.

The former means he has not been forgotten, while the latter means that Manchester United have gone wrong.

Like Alex Ferguson, Moyes from Scotland. Manchester United, who have never missed European competitions in the British era, led to a bottomless abyss, with Manchester United's worst seventh-place finish in the team's history last season, not to mention the Champions League, not even the Europa League, Moyes finally had to step down, and Giggs, who replaced him on an interim basis, won two, drew one and lost one in the final four rounds.

It doesn't seem bad, but Ferguson knows that his proud protΓ©gΓ© is at least far from the moment when he is actually in charge of Manchester United.

So, Ferguson once again moved the idea he had moved last year.

After Linson announced his departure from Manchester City last year, Alex Ferguson also announced his retirement. In fact, it is not that there is no media that links these two events, and then makes a prediction that many people think is purely Bo Jun's laughter: Lin Sen succeeds Ferguson, because everyone knows that it is impossible. But I'm afraid no one knows that at that time, Ferguson really had the intention of persuading Linsen to take over Manchester United.

Former Manchester City boss at Manchester United? That sounds like a fantasy.

But in Ferguson's view, there is nothing impossible in the world of football, because he has seen too many impossible things become possible, and many of them are even handled by him.

So, if something doesn't happen, anything is possible.

However, with the phone call just now, this is the second time he has called Linsen, and this time, like the last time, Ferguson still has not been able to say his intentions directly.

Ferguson didn't believe that Lin Sen couldn't hear his words, last time, Lin Sen used the reason for marriage, which was a very euphemistic rejection of his kindness, it stands to reason that Ferguson should stop here, and in fact, he did stop for a while, but, who would have thought that Moyes and Manchester United, a pair that originally seemed to be quite harmonious, would be so incompatible-

"Whose phone number?"

Just when Lin Sen put down the phone, Boya, who had just come out of the bathroom and was still wearing a bath towel, asked casually.

"Carl." Lin Sen also replied casually, "And Sir Alex Ferguson." ”

"Huh?" Boya turned her head with a look of confusion. Even if she is a layman about football, she can hear the dissonance between the two names.

"Karl wants me to go back to Manchester City as manager, Sir Alex Ferguson ......" Lin Sen said lightly, "remember when I told you that after I left Manchester City last year, Jazz once called me?" ”

Boya bowed slightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Jazz should have the idea of letting me go to Manchester United."

"Really? So what are your plans? Hearing Lin Sen's words, Boya, who had been a little confused before, looked as usual. It seems that neither the invitation to Mubarak nor the meaning of Ferguson are strange.

"Not surprised?" Boya's expression was too calm, but Lin Sen couldn't help but ask.

"Surprised? What do you mean? Looking at Lin Sen's strange expression, Boya smiled and asked.

"Both."

"Nope." Boya said with a smile, "Because neither of them is strange." Karl will invite you because a year has passed, and the Manchester City fans still haven't forgotten you, so instead of letting you come back and be an enemy of Manchester City, it is better to simply let you go back to Manchester City to work. But Manuel Pellegrini did a good job at Manchester City, so you can't be a manager, being a manager should be the best fit. ”

"As for Sir Alex Ferguson, I think the surprise you are talking about is not about going to Manchester United, but because of your former Manchester City status. However, I don't think that's a problem, to give a simple example, Figo went from Barcelona to Real Madrid, and it didn't stop him from becoming the World Footballer of the Year, so ......"

Speaking of this, Boya spread out his hands and assumed a bewitching pose.

Lin Sen was dumbfounded.

He has always thought that he is a very "cold-blooded" person, and likes to think about everything from a realistic point of view, and, in fact, for the phone call between Mubarak and Ferguson, what Boya said, he did not think about it, but from Boya's mouth, these are completely different things, and it is really not a family that does not enter the door?

"Do you want to be ...... Reality? After a long time, Lin Sen held back another sentence.

"I learned from you." Boya blinked mischievously, looking innocent, and then deliberately pulled the wrapped bath towel up.

It's really damn bad. (To be continued!)
