The six-goal sweep of West Ham United made Tottenham Hotspur completely the darling of the British media the next day, even in the same round, Arsenal beat Reading 40, Manchester United beat rival Liverpool 0, and Chelsea beat Portsmouth, but Tottenham Hotspur's game still occupies a very important page and a lot of space in the media.

Arsenal and Chelsea wins were a no-brainer, and Manchester United's win over Liverpool was rightfully headlined, but Tottenham Hotspur's furious win over West Ham United was undoubtedly the focus of attention for the vast majority of fans in this round.

Maybe it's because Tottenham Hotspur's performance has been giving people a bad feeling since the beginning of this season, or maybe it's because all fans have certain expectations for Tottenham Hotspur in their hearts, expecting Ye Qiu's team to get out of the trough and rise strongly.

In addition to a lot of coverage and commentary on this game, the Daily Telegraph also specifically mentioned the outside world's impression of Tottenham Hotspur in a commentary, that is, it is actually not too bad.

"Tottenham Hotspur has won three wins, drawn two and lost four in nine rounds of the Premier League, such a report card is really bad for a team that has been aiming to challenge for the league title, and it can even be said to be bad, but for a team that is only in the middle of the table and has undergone a reorganization, such a ranking is not unacceptable."

"A large part of the reason why the outside world has been hyping Tottenham Hotspur's poor performance is because of Ye Qiu and Tottenham Hotspur's operation in the transfer market in the summer, but we must also see that Ye Qiu has been away from the mainstream league for a year, and perhaps he himself will need a while to readjust to such a league rhythm."

"As for the statement that Tottenham Hotspur has invested more than 100 million, the facts are not objective, because Tottenham Hotspur has sold a number of main core players, including Carrick, Lennon, Robbie Keane, Ridley King, etc., and their transfer income is also over 100 million, which makes Tottenham Hotspur actually not invest much in the transfer market."

"So, some people may ask, why have the players changed so much without much investment?"

"We should note that Tottenham Hotspur is playing a completely different tactical style from their past, and Tottenham Hotspur has always attached great importance to the European continentalization style, from Santini to Joel, and even Frank Arneson, who is the technical director, are all taking the foreign aid route, but whether it is Santini or Joel, they are obviously more pragmatic."

"One of the most impressive aspects of Ye Qiu's side this season is that the two biggest wins in the Premier League so far this season have come against them, 0 wins over promoted Sheffield United, 0 wins over West Ham United in the same city, and 0 wins over Portsmouth Tottenham, Tottenham Hotspur have really played very well in these three games."

"So, a lot of people say that Tottenham Hotspur don't have quality, that's completely wrong, this team does have quality, and they've played even better than Arsenal in all three of these victories, and they've played amazing attacking football, the tide of attacking football is almost unforgettable, don't believe it, you can ask the fans at White Hart Lane and they'll tell you the real, you can't find the answers in the media."

"Ye Qiu must have made a mistake, there is no doubt about it, he has been away from football for a year, and the past year may have been too lax, so that he did not handle many details well enough, such as the midfielder he valued the most in the past, but now it seems to be not shown in Tottenham Hotspur, Cesc Fabregas and Mascherano are a fixed combination, but the third midfielder is Yaya Toure or the veteran Davies, Ye Qiu seems to be still adjusting and trying, and even playing West Ham United in the second half of his attempt to become 3"

"From these signs, we can all see that Ye Qiu is experimenting with lineups and changes, and this is not only now, even at the beginning of the season, he has been trying back and forth between Yaya Toure and Davies, but the results have been mixed, and Davies played Chelsea very badly."

"But everyone should not forget that the average age of this team is the lowest in the Premier League, and many of the main players in the team are around 20 years old, which makes this team still have long-term potential to tap, so, Ye Qiu said, the team can play better and better, this is definitely not an empty word, but a fact"

"Of course, we also have to see that with the current performance of Tottenham Hotspur, it is almost impossible for this team to make a difference in the Premier League this season, even if it is to finish in the top four of the league, I am afraid it will be very difficult, maybe next season a readjustment, they can make a difference."

Compared with the Daily Telegraph, the Sun's commentary is very sharp, with the headline "Hard-hitting Ye Qiu, hard-hitting Tottenham Hotspur"

In this report, the reporter of The Sun believes that Tottenham Hotspur has only won three games this season, which is completely inconsistent with the team's transfer investment of more than 100 million in the summer transfer market, and even lives up to all the fans' expectations of them, but this team's life is very hard, and it always plays a hearty victory at the most critical moment to resolve the team's crisis.

"Lost to Bolton Wanderers in the first round, and immediately defeated Sheffield United 0 in the second round, the team regained morale, but then it was a draw or a loss, but this team quickly won 0 against Portsmouth, 0 slaughtered the Hammers, and reversed the unfavorable situation for the team, we really can't think of any other way to say except that Ye Qiu and his team are hard."

"But we must also see that purely relying on hard life cannot last the whole season, if Ye Qiu does not solve the troubles and problems that the team is currently encountering, I believe that it will not be long before this breath in their hearts will be exhausted sooner or later, and Tottenham Hotspur will not be able to enter the top four, the top ten will be a problem."

Even after the 0 slaughter of West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur is only in L3rd place in the Premier League standings, but the overall strength of this team is still quite optimistic, at least everyone thinks that the top ten is not the slightest problem, but if you want to enter the top four, it is very difficult, because Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are very strong in performance and strength.

And Tottenham Hotspur still has a very serious problem this season, that is, the ups and downs are too great

When you perform well, you can play a hearty victory, but when you don't perform well, even scoring goals is a problem, which is definitely not what a strong team should have, and if you want to reach the top four, in addition to being strong enough, the most important thing is to have a stable score.

David Moyes's Everton were able to finish in the top four because they were solid enough to pick up points, and without that, they should not expect to make a difference in a long season, which is inevitable for any team, including Chelsea and Manchester United.

After playing West Ham United, the team played their first game in the Carabao Cup in midweek, against the former Raxes Wimbledon, but now called Milton Keynes Dons, while many of the frenzied fans who were unhappy with the move to Milton Keynes Keynes have regrouped into a new Band that is still playing in the lower leagues

Even after moving to Milton Keynes Dons and changing their name, the former Premier League team has not been able to shake off the situation and now plays in League Two, the fourth tier of English after the Premier League, Championship and League One.

Even if Tottenham Hotspur played away and sent a pure substitute lineup, they still beat Milton Keynes Dons 5-0 away and successfully advanced to the next round, and the opponent in the next round is not strong, from Port Vale in League One.

was able to avoid a strong Premier League team in the draw for the round of 16 knockout round, Ye Qiu was still very satisfied with the draw of Tottenham Hotspur, for which he also said with a smile in an interview that Lady Luck still favors Tottenham Hotspur, at least unlike some other Premier League teams who are fighting each other, such as Arsenal vs. Everton, Chelle vs. Aston Villa.

Of course, there are also some unlucky Premier League teams that have been upset and eliminated, such as Blackburn, Portsmouth, Bolton, etc., all of which were knocked out in the first game of the Premier League team, relatively speaking, Tottenham Hotspur is not bad.

But good luck obviously can't stay with you for a long time, after returning to the Premier League, ushered in the 10th round, Tottenham Hotspur away to challenge the promoted Watford, as a result of the main players rested for a week, Tottenham Hotspur once again played a wonderful offensive feast, although only two goals, but clean sheet Watford.

With four wins, two draws and four losses, Tottenham Hotspur has 14 points and is still ranked 13th in the Premier League

In midweek, he ushered in the second opponent of the League Cup group stage at home, Club Brugge, Belgium, and Tottenham Hotspur defeated the opponent and won two consecutive wins in the group, and through these two games, Ye Qiu also discovered one thing, that is, the teams playing the League Cup do not seem to be strong, or they are not playing hard.

In fact, Tottenham Hotspur is not very careful, but Ye Qiu's team generally has a characteristic, the bench lineup is relatively thick, so the rotation is relatively relaxed, and there is no need to deal with manpower problems.

Back in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur played Manchester United away, and Tottenham started well in this game, with the London team's attack causing a lot of problems for Manchester United, but Van der Sar did well in this game, and the centre-back combination of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic also showed a threat.

Manchester United have been in excellent form this season and currently occupy the top of the league table, and one of the big factors is the addition of Nemanja Vidic, Carrick and Dimitar Berbatov, which has almost brought the Reds back to life, and has almost reborn the Red Devils from a chronic illness of the past.

But just when Tottenham Hotspur was about to use the attack to tear apart the Manchester United defense, Scholes's long pass, Berbatov stopped the ball, knocked back, Cristiano Ronaldo quickly inserted, and the Portuguese sprint was very fast, especially the Vargas side gave him the distance to sprint, which directly made the Portuguese almost soar.

Soared all the way to Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area, knocked horizontally, Giggs inserted a left-footed push,

Tottenham Hotspur couldn't equalize even at the end of the game, but throughout the game, Tottenham Hotspur was clearly better, both in terms of possession and the number of dangerous shots on goal, Tottenham Hotspur were ahead of Manchester United, but ultimately lost the game at Old Trafford.

This made Ye Qiu helplessly ridicule Ferguson at the post-game press conference, saying that he should be the one who is hard

And Ferguson was not stingy, beating Ye Qiu, he was in a good mood, and took out his treasured red wine directly at Old Trafford.

"I thought you would refuse to drink with me after a loss"

While pouring the wine, Ferguson looked at Ye Qiu with a smile, this old guy always looked red, but this smile was very, very annoying in Ye Qiu's eyes at this moment, he had an urge to take the glass of red wine in front of him and spill it directly, but considering that this was in Old Trafford, he endured it

"It's true that I don't have the habit of drinking with people after losing, but since you are so sincere, I'll be reluctant to embarrass it" Ye Qiuha said with a smile, pretending to be like drinking with Ferguson to give him face, and he deliberately wanted to disgust people.

Ferguson smiled, didn't refute, poured a glass of wine, drank it all, and sighed.

"I really thought you wouldn't come back" Ferguson felt a little heroic, for him, it is a very lonely and helpless thing to have no opponents, especially in the Premier League, and like now, there are so many opponents, it is indeed a very exciting thing.

"How is that possible?" Ye Qiu shook his head with a smile, "I told you, I will definitely come back"

Ferguson looked at Ye Qiu deeply, but there was something different in his eyes, "The same person who is concerned by public opinion, about the same age, but the two of you are much, much worse."

"Who are you talking about?" Ye Qiu had just halfway taken the wine glass and stopped.

"Didn't you watch the news?" Ferguson poured himself another glass of wine, "I received the news, Real Madrid is considering whether to renew his contract, if he does not renew his contract, he may be forced out of the Bernabeu" After speaking, Ferguson sighed deeply, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one go.

"I thought you two had a feud" Ye Qiu didn't expect it, because he knew that Ferguson was talking about Beckham.

"Feud?" Ferguson shook his head and smiled, "How is that possible?" ”

After a pause, Ferguson laughed to himself, "Believe it or not, I was hesitant to sell him."

When Ye Qiu heard this, he didn't know how to feel a sense of sympathy in his heart, he once thought that Ferguson was very iron-blooded and tough, and he even told himself not to follow the path of Ferguson, because it was too impersonal and emotionless.

For the sake of Manchester United's results, he drove away players such as David Beckham, Keane and Ruud van Nistelrooy, who he had single-handedly promoted and cultivated.

Many people feel that the flying boots incident is the main source of conflict between Beckham and Ferguson, but in fact it is wrong, the core contradiction between the two is that Ferguson wants to make tactical adjustments to Manchester United, and Beckham, Keane, Ruud van Nistelrooy and others simply can't adapt to such adjustments, and it is only a matter of time before they leave.

Even if there is no flying boots incident, there will definitely be other things that cause conflicts between the two.

Ferguson never mentioned these things in the media or in front of the public, and even after he got rid of Roy Keane, no one knew that he had secretly cared about the former Manchester United captain, and all of this was rotten in his heart, if it weren't for Eliza's strong connections in English football and well-informed enough, he wouldn't have known about it at all.

"Actually, he is very similar to me, at least in many ways, for example, we are both unwilling to admit defeat, no matter what we are facing, how difficult it is, we will not easily admit defeat, but there are many people who only notice his glamorous side, and do not notice how much he has paid behind his back."

"I also know that he is a very good professional and that everything that happens to him off the pitch rarely affects his performance on the pitch, but do you know it? As someone who watched him grow and mature, who once felt that he deserved to achieve higher and better results than he is now, but saw that he did not receive any recognition from the outside world and became a vase in the eyes of everyone, I must remind him, and I must bring him back. ”

When he said this, Ferguson's eyes were red, and he drank and was very excited.

'I've told him more than once that players are like managers, everything has to be done on the football pitch, but his wife obviously doesn't think so, and that's the biggest conflict between the two of us.

After Ye Qiu heard this, he somewhat understood in his heart.

Maybe it's hard to say who is right and who is wrong in this kind of thing, after all, even in ordinary families, there will be a lot of conceptual conflicts and contradictions between parents and sons and daughters-in-law, and it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, this is the generation gap.

And the reason why Ferguson is emotional now is because as an elder, when he heard the news of Beckham, he watched him go to La Liga for three or four years, but he didn't win a championship, but ended up likely to be kicked out of the Bernabeu, and he felt uncomfortable.

After Florentino's ouster, the new Real Madrid president Calderón brought in Capello to reform and rejuvenate the team, Beckham and Ronaldo, and even Raul and other players were put on the purge, while Beckham's contract expires at the end of the season, and the two sides are currently deadlocked over the issue of contract extension.

Ferguson should have received the news that Real Madrid may not be ready to renew Beckham's contract, and if Real Madrid doesn't want to get a penny after the worst time, the ideal way is to force Beckham to transfer during the winter break, so as to save Beckham's salary for half a year, and get a transfer fee that is not a small amount, and it is conservatively estimated that there are 10 million euros in both aspects.

"Have you thought about bringing him back to Manchester United?" Ye Qiu asked casually.

When Ferguson heard this, he exhaled deeply, and his expression quickly returned to normal, for a person like him, a short gaffe is already very rare, and after returning to normal, he shook his head, "He is not suitable for the current Manchester United"

Ye Qiu wanted to say that after Beckham left, Manchester United's midfield was out of order, and later you brought in Carrick at a high price, but in fact, Carrick's role is not the same as when Beckham moved to the middle, or even worse than Beckham?

But he held back after the end, because he could see that Ferguson was no longer willing to talk about the subject.

But from this gaffe of less than a few minutes, Ye Qiu also noticed that Ferguson was not as tough, cold-blooded, and emotionless as he thought in the past, he was actually a person

"Come, I respect you" Ye Qiu finally picked up the wine glass, leaned over, and slammed the wine glass in Ferguson's hand
