There were no upsets in the 27th round of the Premier League.

Although Liverpool lost 1-2 to Newcastle away.

But in everyone's eyes, the Magpies have never been a weak team.

The match between Bayswater Chinese and Aston Villa at home is the first match of this round.

The win was also a sure win.

Yang Cheng knew very well that the more critical the moment, the more cautious he needed to be.

The opening attack didn’t work?

It's okay, don't worry.

In the 16th minute, Las Diarra assisted Modric to score a goal.

Before the end of the second half, Dzeko made another assist and Modric scored another goal.

Scored twice!

The captain of Bayswater Chinese didn't score many goals and wasn't very impressive, but he exploded when the team needed him.

Chelsea beat Middlesbrough 3-0 at home, with Drogba scoring twice.

Manchester United also played very steadily, beating Charlton Athletic 2-0 at home.

Arsenal conceded a goal at home, but scored two goals in the final moments of the game, defeating Wigan Athletic 2-2.

This also confirms what Ferguson said before.

Wigan Athletic’s strength is actually not weak.

Including this round, they have lost 9 games in a row.

The most crucial reason is probably the team itself.

After the 27th round of the Premier League, the national team players reported to the national team one after another.

But this time the national team training camp only lasts for one week and there is only one game.

Yang Cheng took advantage of this week to do some things that he had been preparing for a long time.

……

In the past two years, many people who have met Tim Harkness have jokingly told him, "Oh my God, you look so much like Gordon Ramsay from Hell's Kitchen."

Tim Harkness was a little confusing at first.

He hadn’t seen Hell’s Kitchen and he didn’t know Gordon Ramsay.

Later, he watched this cooking reality show on Fox TV in the United States.

You know what, they really look alike.

But he can't cook.

He is a psychologist and an expert in sports psychology.

Tim Harkness is a South African who grew up in Durban. He came from a well-off family and attended Michaelhouse, the best private school in South Africa. He then went to the University of KwaZulu-Natal for seven years and earned a Master of Arts.

Yes, he has been interested in humanities since he was a child.

In 90, when he entered the University of KwaZulu-Natal, he started working for SCUBA, the international diving organization. During the five years, he worked as a lecturer and lecturer trainer, and worked in Durban, Sodwana Bay and other places.

As part of his master's degree, he also spent a lot of time studying baboons in the Drakensberg Mountains, observing social behavior within their groups.

He obtained a master's degree in 97 and became a psychologist in 98. He runs a psychology clinic in Durban.

Business has been good and has helped many children and adults with mental disorders.

Later, some athletes also came to him for help.

Since 2001, he has worked as a psychological consultant in a health consulting company and began to come into contact with more different kinds of people.

Including bank executives, corporate elites, political upstarts, entertainment stars, etc.

Among them, the ones who come into contact with it the most are athletes, including professional rugby, cricket, golf, surfing players, etc.

He found that many athletes had this need, but few people could provide them with professional services.

Because in the competitive field, psychological problems are often seen as manifestations of timidity and cowardice.

this is not right.

Tim Harkness recently took on a client from India.

His name is Abhinav Bindra, 24 years old, an Indian 10m air rifle shooter.

He was born into an aristocratic family and his family was very wealthy. His father was the largest exporter of shooting products in India. He was exposed to guns since he was a child and showed a talent for shooting at the age of 15. His father spent a lot of money to hire a professional coach for him.

Since then, he has insisted on training every day and his results are getting better and better.

In 2005, he won 4th place in the Asian Championships in Bangkok, Thailand.

In 2006, he won first place in the World Championships in Zagreb, Croatia.

But he started to get "sick".

In the history of India, no individual has ever won an Olympic gold medal.

This is absolutely intolerable for a big country with a population of more than one billion.

Therefore, India has high expectations for Abhinav Bindra, hoping that he can help India achieve a breakthrough in individual Olympic gold medals in the 08 Olympics.

The expectations of his family and the hope of the whole country made this 24-year-old young man feel a little overwhelmed.

Who would have thought that such a young man who has had a smooth life since birth and is a winner in every aspect of life would also have such needs?
So he turned to Tim Harkness for help.

Tim Harkness just met with Abhinav Bindra, they had a good chat and the two sides are considering a long-term collaboration.

India hopes that Tim Harkness can help Abhinav Bindra to compete in the 08 Olympics.

But unfortunately, it seems that it is not possible now.

Because he received another more attractive invitation.

Chinese from Premier League leader Bayswater.

But what really convinced him was a phone call from Yang Cheng.

……

As soon as he arrived in London, someone drove a Mercedes to the airport to pick up Tim Hannix.

Arrangements were made for him to stay at the Lancaster Hotel, north of Hyde Park.

The next day, the same driver took him to visit the Brent training base in the western suburbs of London.

Here, Hannix saw the youth training academy with very advanced facilities and forward-thinking concepts, and also saw the bustling training ground construction project.

Afterwards, he was scheduled to go to Wembley Stadium.

He was really shocked by this magnificent stadium.

It cost a total of 7.8 million pounds and it looks like it is made of gold.

It was not until the third day after his arrival in London that he was invited to the Bayswater Stadium.

An unfinished building located in the core area of ​​Queensway Road, north of London Hyde Park, near Queensway tube station.

Standing outside Bayswater Stadium, he finally understood why he had gone to so much trouble to arrange a visit to the training base and Wembley Stadium.

If he were to come to this unfinished building, his first reaction would definitely be to run away.

This doesn't look like a wealthy club at all!
"Hello, Tim, welcome to London."

Following the staff into the administrative office, he recognized Yang Cheng at once.

They talked on the phone and Yang Cheng's voice was particularly impressive to them.

Before coming to London, he specifically looked up this club and this person.

"Hello, Yang, it's an honor to meet you."

Yang Cheng introduced him to two senior executives of the club, CEO Adam Crozier and Chief Financial Officer Xia Qing.

In addition, Yang Cheng mainly introduced assistant coach Brian Kidd, sports performance analyst Thad Fawcett, fitness coach Oliver Bartlett, and head of data analysis department Jenny Vio.

There is also Neil Cannon, a nutritionist hired by the team last year.

Cannon graduated with a master's degree in sports physiology and nutrition from Loughborough University. He later worked in many sports clubs in the UK, including rowing, tennis, athletics and football, and has a good reputation in the industry.

Yang Cheng knew Tim Harkness in his previous life.

Tim Harkness rose to fame in 2008 when he produced India's first individual Olympic champion.

But now, God knows whether this Indian player can still win the championship?

In 2009, Harkness was hired by Chelsea for a large sum of money and joined the Blues as a sports psychology expert.

During his time at Chelsea, his greatest contribution was to provide psychological support for the Blues' players.

But there is one of his studies that Yang Cheng is very interested in, and that is his [Faith Action].

The so-called confidence action is certainly not just a simple psychological counseling, but a long-term construction of the athlete's psychological defense line.

Petr Cech was also very supportive of the move when he served as Chelsea's technical advisor.

To put it simply, he tried to psychologically encode players through modern scientific methods and data science.

What does that mean?

By analyzing the players' behaviors in training, games and daily life, we conduct psychological analysis on them and assign points to their actions.

For example, in a game, there are two players, one of whom performs very well, but in fact may make many unconfident moves.

Another player may not be performing very well, but he is making some confident, bold decisions.

By watching the game videos, these can be seen and certain points will be given.

There are also things like the player's focus, motivation to play, and movement processing under pressure.

All of these, through scoring, can get a player's psychological code.

Through long-term tracking and statistics, we can basically understand a player's psychological condition clearly.

Yang Cheng had heard Eden Hazard mentioned many times in his previous life.

They believe that the Belgian received very good psychological counseling and emotional management at Chelsea, but not enough in this regard at Real Madrid, which led to many problems for him.

There are many others, even covering all aspects.

When Yang Cheng coached Arsenal in his previous life, he specially invited a well-known psychological expert in the industry to provide counseling.

The first thing he did was to change the way players were addressed within the team so that they could no longer be called by their last names.

why?
Because that’s their symbol on the field, on TV and in the newspapers, on their jerseys.

That's what the media and fans outside call them.

If the team calls them this, it is subtly reminding them that they are a commodity that does not belong to them.

So he encouraged players to say a nickname or name that they would like others to call them.

"Athletes are rich, famous, influential, young, and have a lot of fans, but they are not themselves, so we have to try to help them find the positive side of their humanity."

What can we gain on the court by regaining our positive human side?
"If you look closely, Yang, from the past to the present, you will find that those partners who are particularly in sync on the court, those partners who achieve the effect of 1+1 greater than 2, are often good friends in real life."

"Ronaldinho and Deco from Barcelona's Dream Team II, Xavi and MSN from Dream Team III, Toni Kroos and Modric from Real Madrid's ceremonial three midfielders, and C Ronaldo and Marcelo..."

"We can even go back further, to Manchester United's Class of 92..."

"You will find that when players are on the court, playing with good friends who get along well with them, they can often burst out with unimaginable strength."

"In many cases, the head coach doesn't even need to tell them what to do. They know what they have to do for each other, without expecting anything in return, and willingly do it."

“Isn’t this more important than anything else?”

"For those players who don't have a good relationship in private, it is difficult for them to form a synergy on the court. Not to mention 1+1 equals 2, it may even be less than 2."

This is also what Yang Cheng has been promoting among the Chinese in Bayswater.

Be a football club with warmth!

That's why he told Yaya Toure that he was a living person.

At the same time, he also pays more attention to introducing young players.

……

According to Yang Cheng, the competitive department will undergo some functional reorganization and establish a sports science department.

The so-called sports science means exactly what it says.

Thad Fawcett's performance analysis team falls into this department.

There are now five fitness coaches for the first team, all under the charge of Oliver Bartlett.

But Oliver Bartlett was also going into the sports science department.

There are also psychologist Tim Harkness, nutritionist Neil Cannon, data analysis expert Genny Vio, medical director David Favre, chief physiotherapist Rob Price...

All in all, this sports science department is like a cross-departmental collaboration platform.

"As professional football has developed to this day, with the development and continuous progress of science and technology, and the continuous improvement of training levels, it will definitely become more and more refined and professional."

Yang Cheng expounded the necessity of reforming this department.

"This is bound to have an impact on the traditional coaching model of the past, or even completely overturn it."

No one knows what it's like in other teams.

But at Bayswater Chinese, that is indeed the case.

As the number of departments increases, the division of labor becomes more and more detailed, which leads to communication problems.

When a player is injured, many things are involved, even almost all departments.

This will cause serious communication cost problems and even lead to mutual shirking of responsibility.

In the past, there were only a few people in the coaching team, and everyone discussed things together.

But now?

There are several people under each department, two or three at the least and four or five at the most.

Just like the last time Yaya Toure was injured and everyone sat together for a meeting, Yang Cheng was needed to be in charge.

What if there is no Yang Cheng?

Ha, needless to say, it must be a case of mutual blame.

A simple, moderate muscle strain can involve many parts of the body.

One side said that your physical training team’s training intensity was too high, another side said that your nutritionist gave him the wrong food, another side said that your data was wrong, and some even said that your medical team didn’t do a good job of prevention…

This is very realistic!
Almost all companies will encounter similar problems after they grow to a certain size.

So, what Yang Cheng meant is that we will be a unified department in the future, the Department of Sports Science.

All of you department heads are in this department. Whatever the team needs to do, you should discuss it together and divide the work scientifically. If there is a problem, no one should shirk responsibility.

When there is a problem, the first thing to do is not to shirk responsibility, but to find a solution to the problem.

These matters could have been decided by Yang Cheng alone.

But he still wants to push for departmental reform.

Because he doesn't want to repeat Ferguson's mistakes.

If he's here, then of course everything will be easy.

But he can't stay in this position forever, right?
Besides, how much energy does he have to do so many things by himself?

Can't he just do some of the work that a rich second-generation should do?
For example, picking up a girl or going on a date?

Smart people just need to talk, don't work too hard.

Of course, the Bayswater Chinese first team, with more than 30 employees in total, can still do this.

If there are more people in the future, we will have to find another way.

In addition to establishing a sports science department, Yang Cheng also decided to start implementing paperless office in the competitive and administrative departments.

Yang Cheng would specially hire an assistant to record various meetings, organize and summarize them for easy retention, recording and notification.

Everyone works directly on their mobile phones or laptops, joins the group, and communicates directly in the group if there is anything.

The coaching team of Bayswater Chinese has one characteristic, that is youth.

The oldest one is Brian Kidd.

Therefore, it is feasible to implement paperless office and it can greatly improve work efficiency.

……

On the afternoon of February 2, the 17th knockout round of the FA Cup.

Bayswater Chinese will host Derby County of the Championship at home.

Derby County has performed well in the Championship this season and has the strength to impact the Premier League.

But Yang Cheng still played with an all-substitute lineup, saving enough energy to prepare for the Champions League next Wednesday and the league next weekend.

Di Maria performed well in this game, with one assist and one goal, helping the team beat Derby County 2-0.

The team successfully advanced to the 6th round, which is the quarterfinals.

……

On the evening of November 2th, Stade Gerland in Lyon, France.

In the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout match, Bayswater Chinese played away against Lyon.

As the overlord of Ligue 5, Lyon has achieved five consecutive championships, and judging from its performance in Ligue 6 this season, there is no suspense about winning the sixth consecutive championship.

Lyon is now strong in both men and horses.

The defense line has famous players such as Abidal, Chris, Squillaci, and the midfield also has Juninho Jr., Portuguese midfielder Thiago and French midfielder Alou Diarra.

On the front line, Malouda, Fred and Gove are all powerful European stars.

There was also a young Benzema sitting on the bench.

In fact, Yang Cheng really considered Benzema at the beginning.

But Lyon is not an easy club to deal with. Aulas, the vampire, is even more greedy, and they will not let Benzema go easily.

After much consideration, Yang Cheng chose Lewandowski.

It is of good quality and low price, with high cost performance. The key is that the Polish center is also very strong.

When Yang Cheng saw the young-looking Benzema on the bench of the home team in front of the visiting team's coaching booth at the Gerland Stadium, his first reaction was...

Lewandowski should be given more opportunities next time.

It can't be that he is worse than Benzema, right?

Lewandowski has been training with the first team at Bayswater this season, participating more in reserve and youth team matches, and also competing in the League Cup and FA Cup.

In general, there are actually a lot of opportunities for competition and the intensity is also good.

At the age of 18, this kind of competition training is enough.

The players' performance was indeed good.

As for Lambert, Yang Cheng always felt that he was gradually unable to keep up with the needs of the team.

He's fine as a substitute, but he's not strong enough to play an important role.

Therefore, Yang Cheng also decided that after returning to London, he would have a talk with Lewandowski, give him a boost, encourage him to work harder and increase his playing time.

……

Witnessed by 4 French fans, the Chinese team from Bayswater, wearing white jerseys, attacked Lyon right from the start.

Premier League teams are accustomed to the blitzkrieg of the Chinese in Bayswater and even have plans to deal with it.

Of course, Lyon had heard of it, but he had never experienced it personally.

Football matches are like this. If you haven’t experienced it, you can never simulate the intensity and pressure of a real match.

More than two minutes into the game, Dzeko fired a long shot from the frontcourt.

The Bosnian center forward is becoming more and more confident as he plays more.

The shot was saved by goalkeeper Coupe.

But soon, Arshavin also made a long shot, which was a few meters closer than Dzeko, causing Coupe to lose the ball.

It’s a pity that Dzeko wanted to take advantage of the opportunity but missed it.

Lyon's head coach is Houllier, the coach who coached Liverpool when they won four titles.

The old coach let Bayswater Chinese's opening attack speed up his heart rate and almost had a heart attack. He kept shouting at the players on the sidelines, reminding them to pay attention here and be careful of there.

Turning around again and taking a look at Yang Cheng standing upright in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, Houllier felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

Fortunately, I am not coaching in the Premier League now.

Otherwise, how can my fragile heart bear it?

High-pressure pressing, simple and efficient passing and cutting, the attack is like a storm, and the speed of offense and defense transition is too fast.

In the 6th minute, Bayswater Chinese's frontcourt attack resulted in a corner kick.

Leighton Baines took the corner kick from the left side, but he didn't send it to the front point or the middle, but passed it to the back point.

Dzeko jumped high and headed the ball to the middle.

Yaya Toure, who had been lurking at the top of the penalty area, suddenly rushed in, like a heavy tank, rushed to the outside of the small penalty area, and headed the ball into Lyon's goal.

Houllier was stunned watching from the sidelines.

Is it that Lyon is not black and hard?
No, he specifically picked one, Alou Diarra.

He is 1 meters tall, of African Malian descent, and is very strong. He looks no less capable than Yaya Toure.

In fact, many media outlets have previously hyped that Alou Diarra is a technically reduced version of Yaya Toure.

Alou Diarra is two years older than Toure.

But just now, facing the aggressive Toure, Arau Diarra couldn't stop him at all.

……

The goal was scored just over 6 minutes into the game, and the Bayswater Chinese became more aggressive in their attack.

They didn't seem to care whether they were playing away or not, they just kept playing whenever they got the chance.

Lyon's first shot of the game came in the 16th minute, when Juninho took a corner kick from the left and Gove headed the ball wide. But soon, the Bayswater Chinese counterattack came.

Dzeko first received a straight pass from Maicon behind him, but was called for offside.

Just two minutes later, Modric made a side pass, Ashley Young broke into the left side outside the penalty area, suddenly stopped, passed the ball with his right foot, and sent a diagonal pass to the front point.

Dzeko headed the ball and hit the post.

At this time, it was already 22 minutes.

As the overlord of French Ligue 1, Lyon was unable to come up with an effective solution when facing the Chinese team at Bayswater.

We also conceded a home goal.

However, Yang Cheng on the sidelines saw something very interesting.

Especially when he saw that Dzeko was called offside again.

"How many times has this happened?" Yang Cheng asked Brian Kidd beside him.

"The 4rd time."

When Brian Kidd answered, he exchanged glances with Yang Cheng, and both of them understood each other's thoughts.

The Bayswater Chinese attack tempo was very fast and they made many through passes.

Lyon's two central defenders, Brazilian Chris is 1 meters tall, and French central defender Squillaci is 83 meters tall.

But in fact, they are not fast, have poor flexibility and turn slowly.

When switching from offense to defense, they will be at a disadvantage facing Dzeko's head-on attack.

So, Houllier chose to create offside.

Especially when the game reached the 33rd minute, Arshavin made a straight pass in a quick counterattack.

Dzeko just made a forward run and was offside again.

Yang Cheng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He immediately walked to the sidelines and gestured to Dzeko and Arshavin, indicating that they should swap roles, and also conveyed the instructions to Modric.

In the 35th minute, Bayswater Chinese launched another attack.

Maicon once again made a forward run on the right, and after receiving the pass from Las Diarra, he did not move to the side but went to the flank.

Just when everyone thought that the Chinese in Bayswater were going to attack from behind again, Dzeko suddenly retreated and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

This sudden action made Chris come forward immediately.

Almost at the same time, a white figure quickly moved forward from beside Chris.

Maicon's pass arrived as expected.

Arshavin kicked the ball behind him and sprinted at top speed, instantly leaving Squillaci behind and getting a one-on-one chance.

At this moment, the entire Gerland Stadium was boiling.

After Arshavin dribbled into the penalty area, facing the goalkeeper Coupet who was rushing out, he made a skillful feint, dribbled past Coupet and sent the ball into the unguarded goal.

2 is better than 0!

……

The first half ended with 2-0.

But Lyon faces a dilemma.

If we press forward and attack, we are likely to score more goals.

If we consolidate our defense first, the situation will still be very passive.

We conceded two away goals in the first leg at home, so the second leg will be very difficult.

Even the possibility of a comeback is extremely low.

Fortunately, this has never been a problem for Lyon.

Because they made it to the round of 16, they have successfully completed their mission.

So, throughout the second half, Lyon was more on defense.

In the 60th minute, Houllier replaced Benzema, obviously intending to train the young player.

At the same time, he also replaced Gove with former Arsenal player Wiltord.

Yang Cheng was also making substitutions.

Walcott replaces Arshavin.

As a result, in the 74th minute, the young English player received a pass from his teammate on the right, used his speed to dribble past Abidal, and on the right side of the penalty area, facing Squillaci, performed two consecutive bicycle kicks, dribbled past Squillaci, and then shot high with his left foot from the top right side of the penalty area.

Although the shot was too high, Yang Cheng still applauded Walcott on the sidelines.

Not only does he volley with his left foot, but his aim is pretty good.

More importantly, under Yang Cheng's training, Walcott is obviously more daring to take the ball, cut inside and break through.

This kind of self-confidence does not come out of nowhere, but is accumulated year by year.

And Gareth Bale on the left.

He is not the same as Walcott.

He is taller and stronger, which means his footwork is not as flexible as Walcott's.

But Gareth Bale's direct strike and ability to score goals will be stronger.

Among the three, Di Maria has the best skills and the strongest ability in one-on-one breakthroughs. Although he looks thin, he is actually very durable.

In Yang Cheng’s plan, these three people are the future of the Chinese in Bayswater!

……

Bayswater Chinese beat Lyon 2-0 away from home with goals from Yaya Toure and Arshavin.

This battle helped the Chinese in Bayswater fire their first shot in the Champions League knockout stage.

Everyone also further confirmed that the Chinese in Bayswater are indeed outstanding.

Manchester United won 1-0 against Lille away from home.

Liverpool beat Barcelona 2-1 away.

Chelsea drew 1-1 with Porto away.

Overall, this season's Premier League performance is much better than before.

This also makes Premier League fans more certain that Arsenal is the rotten apple that tarnishes the reputation of the Premier League.

Why?

They are too unambitious.

When Arsenal was there, Premier League teams did not perform well.

Now, isn’t everything good?
what?
Arsenal reached the Champions League final last season?

So why can't they play in the Champions League this season?
Can we play next season?

……

Noon on February 2, Craven Cottage Stadium, West London.

In the 28th round of the Premier League, Fulham faced Manchester United at home.

The game is about to end.

Ferguson had a gloomy face and kept his eyes on the field in front of him.

Next door to him, Fulham manager Chris Coleman was ready to celebrate.

This is a great "victory" for them!
The same should be true for London teams.

But for Manchester United, it was a complete failure!

Due to the Champions League and FA Cup, Ferguson had to divide his forces and fight on multiple fronts, which affected the team's overall performance.

After the opening, McBride scored a goal for Fulham.

This damn American has been targeting strong teams this season and has already scored 9 goals.

Manchester United chased Fulham and kept hitting them.

In the 29th minute, Giggs passed the ball straight to the left, Rooney passed the ball back and gave it to Giggs who was unguarded. The Welshman headed the ball into the goal and equalized the score for Manchester United.

But then, the score remained in a stalemate.

Manchester United had the advantage on the field and created more opportunities, but there were no truly threatening attacks.

It's Fulham instead.

At the beginning of the second half, Fulham's attack almost broke through Manchester United's goal.

Thanks to the great Van der Sar!

The Dutch goalkeeper used his godly performance to save Fulham's shot and keep Manchester United's hope.

But not long after, in the 52nd minute, Fulham launched another attack. Simon Davis turned and volleyed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.

This can almost be said to be a must-goal.

It's Van der Sar again!
The Dutchman made another great save.

In the 54th minute, Fulham hit the crossbar again.

In the first 10 minutes of the second half, Manchester United played like shit.

Ferguson was furious and furious on the sidelines.

But he also knew that this was because the players were too tired.

So, he replaced Vidic with O'Shea.

Only then did they manage to stabilize the situation.

But Fulham actually played well against Manchester United and even had a slight advantage.

The Red Devils were never able to find an effective way to attack.

Rooney...is silent!

Larson...is also silent!
Ronaldo...no shots on target tonight!

Ferguson even replaced Saha in the 67th minute, putting up a three-forward combination of Saha, Larsson and Rooney in the frontcourt.

Plus Giggs, Scholes and Ronaldo.

The Manchester United godfather has gambled everything!
He has already used up his three substitutions and doesn't plan to make any more adjustments.

Just attack!

If we can’t beat Fulham tonight, we’ll lose the championship!
He also knows that the team is now under heavy pressure and burden.

Over the past period of time, the points gap between Manchester United and Bayswater Chinese has been very close, and they have been fighting hard against each other.

But the schedule is so tight, you can imagine the pressure on the players.

But Ferguson feels that as a Manchester United player, he must learn to adapt to such pressure!
As time passed, Ferguson stood anxiously on the sidelines.

Probably every few seconds, he would look up at the scoreboard.

The score is still 1 to 1.

But time is still changing relentlessly.

89 minutes already!
The fourth official on the sidelines raised a sign, adding 2 minutes of extra time.

Last 3 minutes!

Ferguson closed his eyes.

He seemed to be able to see the Chinese party in Bayswater tonight, or even tomorrow!
……

In the Champions League match against Lille in midweek, Ronaldo was substituted after playing for 67 minutes.

This made him feel very unhappy.

Because the score was 0-0 at that time.

After he left the field, Giggs scored in the 83rd minute.

But he didn't know it at the time.

So, in a rage, he kicked the mineral water bottle on the sidelines away.

This immediately made him the focus of major media reports after the game.

The vast majority of them accused him of being arrogant and acting like a big shot.

But no one has ever thought that he still wants to stay on the court and continue to create goals for the team!
He doesn't want to be substituted!
But no one believed it!

They would rather believe that he is just unruly, has a bad temper, and is just being a big shot.

Ferguson believed him.

So, after the game, Manchester United's godfather told him, "Even if you have mouths all over your body, you can't beat the media!"

"You will never convince someone who argues with you while covering his ears!"

"You can only tell them the truth!"

So, in this game, Ronaldo was very active.

He kept looking for opportunities, kept creating opportunities, and kept shooting.

But today, his luck seemed to be particularly bad.

The more he wanted to score a goal, the further away it became from him.

Today, Manchester United cannot accept a draw!

This is what Ferguson said before the game and at halftime.

So, he brought on Saha.

At this time, the frontcourt was almost full of offensive players.

Everyone is trying to figure it out.

No one gave up.

Even at the very end of the game.

But this is far from enough!
The problem with the team now is that the ball in the backcourt can never reach the frontcourt.

Ronaldo saw it all clearly.

The Portuguese looked up and glanced at the scoreboard.

It's almost 90 minutes.

Time is running out!

When he saw that the ball was still being passed back and forth in the backcourt, he no longer cared about much else and ran back along the left side, crossed the center line, and ran to the 30-meter outer edge of his own half.

C Ronaldo stuck to the left sideline, raised his hand and shouted: "Give it to me!"

Vidic heard Ronaldo's shout and immediately passed the ball forward.

Two Fulham defenders immediately rushed towards Ronaldo.

The Portuguese was completely unable to care about anything else; his mind was filled with only one thought.

Time is running out!

If we don’t score another goal, we’ll lose the championship!

This is his first important championship trophy since joining Manchester United!

He would never allow anyone to take it away from him!
At this moment, the Portuguese's mind flashed back to everything he had endured at Manchester United in the past few years.

He came with the halo of Beckham's successor, but ended up suffering humiliation.

Everyone laughed at his flashyness and everyone ridiculed him for being non-threatening.

His team-mates, Roy Keane, Ruud van Nistelrooy and many others who didn’t show it to his face…

He didn't know how many.

But he doesn't care anymore!

During last summer's World Cup, he became the public enemy of the whole of Britain, but he doesn't care anymore!
Now, he only has one thought, one idea.

I want to win the championship!!

Ronaldo was seen passing the ball at the junction of the center line and the left line. He first passed a Fulham defender who was trying to steal the ball, then suddenly accelerated and chased after the football.

Another midfielder in a white jersey rushed over and slid to the ground, trying to tackle him out of bounds with the ball.

But Ronaldo reacted faster, poked the ball forward, accelerated forward, and the opponent only tackled the air.

After passing two people, he vaguely heard the surprise of the fans at the scene.

When he reached the left corner of Fulham's penalty area, he clearly saw Fulham's right-back Rosenho pulling over quickly, ready to block him at the same time as his teammates.

In the distance, Giggs, who had switched to the right, was raising his hand, as there was no one on his side.

But Ronaldo didn't intend to pass the ball.

At this moment, he only believes in himself!
He must score this goal himself!

Ronaldo dribbled the ball from the left corner of the penalty area to the left side. Facing Rossiño, he shook his body continuously to confuse the opponent. Suddenly, he cut the ball with the outside of his right foot and walked sideways, passing between two Fulham defenders.

Before he could completely break through, Ronaldo used the inertia of his quick sprint to shoot with his right foot.

The entire shot was powerful.

The Portuguese were even so excited that they jumped up.

The ball rushed into Fulham's goal with tremendous force and at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.

"what!!!"

Ronaldo roared, turned around and rushed to the sidelines.

The whole stadium was shocked.

Manchester United players rushed towards the Portuguese frantically.

Giggs jumped directly onto Ronaldo's back and cheered with the same excitement.

All the players rushed over and surrounded Ronaldo.

On the sidelines, the players on the bench and the coaches in the coaching booth all rushed towards Ronaldo like crazy.

Ferguson was also in the command area. Unable to contain his excitement, he rushed into the field and kept shouting.

Everyone seemed to be crazy.

Those who have not experienced all this will never understand what it means to Manchester United not winning the league title for four years.

No one can understand how much Ronaldo has shouldered over the past years.

This goal is his fist to the whole world!
He just wants to tell the world: No matter how you scold me, humiliate me, or mock me, I will be the strongest person!
I will make all of you speechless and unable to utter a single word of abuse!

……

The players returned to the court one after another and the game started again.

But the score on the scoreboard changed from 1 to 1 to 1 to 2.

The Manchester United players all breathed a sigh of relief.

When he looked at Ronaldo again, there was obviously more admiration and recognition in his eyes.

The football field is always a place where strength speaks.

The goal scored by Ronaldo at the crucial moment represents his strength!

Ferguson comforted the players on the sidelines, signaling them to keep their composure and not make any mistakes.

There are less than 2 minutes left.

Fulham tried a long pass, trying to get it directly into Manchester United's penalty area, but it didn't work.

The combination of Vidic and Ferdinand blocked Manchester United's goal.

When the time was up, referee Peter Walton blew the whistle to end the game.

At this moment, Manchester United players rushed into the stadium to celebrate.

It was like they had won the championship.

"Carlos, I now feel that we have the ability to challenge for the championship!"

"All the champions!"

Ferguson said to Queiroz with confidence.

Queiroz watched Ronaldo grow up, and it can even be said that he cultivated him personally.

He was very happy to see Ronaldo perform like this.

After hearing what Ferguson said, Queiroz knew that the old Jazz really recognized Ronaldo, the core of the team, from the bottom of his heart.

The same should obviously be true for other teammates on the court.

This is the eternal truth on the football field!
If you want to win everyone's recognition, you have to perform well on the court.

Today, Ronaldo did what no one else, including Rooney, Giggs, Scholes and others, could do.

Then he should be the core!

"I think we can give him more freedom and let him take on more responsibilities," Queiroz suggested.

He felt that Yang Cheng was right.

The current Ronaldo is not the best Ronaldo.

He still has great potential to be tapped.

When Ferguson heard this, he obviously thought of Yang Cheng.

When Manchester United visited London, Yang Cheng led the team north to Middlesbrough to challenge Middlesbrough away.

"I don't know, what was the result of their game?"

Ferguson won the game, his mood improved and a smile appeared on his face.
