Ferguson: This is the Main Defensive Back for the Next Ten Years.
At the Harrington Training Ground.
Manchester United's manager, Ferguson, sat in his office chair and stared at Manchester United's next match.
Europa League.
February 24th, away match against Ajax.
League Championship Round 25
On February 26th, they played against Liverpool in an away game.
Two matches.
There was only a difference of 48 hours.
Time was really too tight.
For this reason, Ferguson unceremoniously and angrily scolded the English Football Association for not considering the clubs that wanted to play in the European League.
"This competition schedule is like dog shit!”
During an interview with the media.
Ferguson said.
But then again...
Ferguson did not care much about the UEFA Europa League.
Ferguson's goal this season was to win the Premier League title. His plan was to retire with honor after winning the Premier League title.
However, Li Ao knew.
Manchester United had been miraculously reversed by Manchester City this season.
In the final round of the league tournament, Aguero scored a goal at the last minute of the game to kill his opponent, and Manchester City reversed Manchester United's historic win of the Premier League title.
This was the direct result.
It was Ferguson who canceled his retirement plans.
He stayed in Manchester United's manager position for another year.
They also brought in Arsenal's top striker, Van Persie.
Finally, in that season.
With Van Persie's superb performance.
After Manchester United regained the Premier League title from Manchester City and won the 20th top league trophy in the team's history.
Ferguson retired with honor.
Of course.
This was a story for the future.
Now, Ferguson was faced with an awkward choice.
It was to play against Ajax in the away game.
exactly
What kind of strategy should he adopt?
In fact, Ferguson could have just given up on the game.
However, if Manchester United's performance in Europe was too weak, it would also be a blow to the team's morale.
However, they had to play two games in 48 hours.
There would definitely be a rotation.
Especially when the opponent was Liverpool.
At Anfield, Manchester United could never have it easy.
Even though Liverpool was still in a rather chaotic period.
Half a season later.
Liverpool's league ranking was eighth in the league and basically had no hope of entering the Champions League.
however.
Even so.
Manchester United could not have it easy against Liverpool.
The reason was simple.
Because this was a match between Manchester United and Liverpool.
If England had a so-called national derby.
The Double Red Meeting between Manchester United and Liverpool.
It was the well-deserved England Derby.
The importance of this game, in Ferguson's view, was much more important than the match against Ajax.
However, since they had a 1 - 1 draw with Ajax on their home ground, it was impossible to use all the reserves and substitutes in the away game against Ajax if they wanted to eliminate Ajax and enter the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League.
This was equivalent to surrendering in advance.
Ferguson was in a dilemma.
Ferguson's assistant, Mike. Fei Lan pushed open the door and entered.
"Alex, look at this.”
McFerran placed a fax in front of Ferguson.
"Arsenal's offer?"
Ferguson was a little puzzled.
"Who do they want? Li Ao from the U18 team?"
Ferguson said the name awkwardly.
"Let the youth academy handle this kind of thing.”
Ferguson looked at McFerran with some doubt.
There were also player trades between the youth teams.
However, the manager would usually not bet on getting involved in such matters.
And Ferguson was very sure that he had never heard the name " LiAo " before.
Therefore, he didn't really care.
The assessment of a young player was something that the youth academy had to complete. Although Ferguson held great power, it was impossible for him to personally handle such a small matter.
Therefore, he had no choice.
He was very interested in Mike. Fei Lan gave him a very confused price.
"Pay attention to the time on this price list.”
McFerran said.
Ferguson looked at it. The offer was from a week ago.
Arsenal's youth academy wanted to take Li Ao away for 600,000 pounds.
Soon after.
Mcphelan gave Ferguson a second offer.
"After being rejected, they immediately made a second offer. This time…1.2 million!"
"In just a week, it actually doubled!”
Ferguson was a wily old fox.
He immediately realized that there was a problem.
Just like all the other teams.
Any offer for a player needed to go through a certain internal procedure.
To be able to double the price in just a week.
Then there was only one possibility--
On the other hand, Arsenal was a big shot who could immediately double the transfer fee.
Absolutely...
It was Ferguson's old rival, Wenger!
"Wenger has taken a fancy to him! This was definitely a transfer offer inspired by Wenger!”
Ferguson stood up.
"Interesting, interesting!"
Ferguson immediately turned on his computer, wanting to check Li Ao's evaluation on his youth academy's internal website.
At this moment.
An email was sent.
" It's an email from Paul." Ferguson smiled after opening it.
"Our Paul is also recommending Li Ao. From the looks of it, our youth team has a truly talented player. He can actually attract Wenger's attention!!”
Ferguson clicked on the link to the email.
McGinnes had already uploaded some of Li Ao's videos to the internal network.
Therefore, Ferguson could watch it directly.
Mike Fei Lan also came over.
He took a look.
The two of them were entranced.
When they finished watching the video that lasted for more than an hour.
Ferguson and his opponent looked at each other.
Soon after.
Ferguson stood up.
"When is the U18 youth team's next match?”
"It's tomorrow. The home game against Chelsea U18 is the FA Youth Cup. The winner will advance to the top four!”
Mike Phylen looked at the youth team's schedule and raised his head.
Ferguson's lips curled into a smile.
"In that case…We have to go to the youth academy to see how our lads play.”
"What about the lineup of Jax?"
Ferguson shook his head." It doesn't matter. I have to watch him play on the field now!”
Ferguson said while staring at the screen.
"I have a feeling, old friend. This little guy might become an extraordinary figure.”
"He's really not bad." McFerran agreed.
"If he plays steadily, he can perfectly replace Park Ji-sung.”McFerran said.
"Park Ji-sung?"
Ferguson shook his head.
"No, it's definitely not just Park Ji-sung.”
"He has the potential to become a top defensive midfielder!”
"For example, Makelele..."
Ferguson grinned.
Just from a video.
Li Ao's overflowing talent already made Ferguson's heart itch.
Manchester United's waist had always been bad.
If Li Ao could be kicked out.
In the next ten years.
Manchester United's defensive midfielder was safe!
