I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 63 Super Cold
The moment Ribery scored, Ferguson's heart seemed to be hit by a hammer.

I was a little confused!

What the hell!
What the hell are these bastards doing tonight?

Can this be scored?

He felt very confused.

But soon, an idea flashed through his mind.

Substitute!

Must be replaced!

At this point, he had completely given up on the weekend's game against Arsenal.

There was only one voice in his head.

Fuck this Championship team!

If Ferguson and his Manchester United were to be eliminated by a Championship team in the League Cup semi-finals with their full lineup, they would become a laughing stock around the world.

More importantly, there is no need to think about the Premier League and Champions League this season!

This crushing defeat will seriously deal a blow to Manchester United's morale.

But when the Manchester United godfather turned his head and looked at the bench, he was a little confused.

According to the rules, there are only five substitute places in the League Cup.

Ferguson arranged goalkeeper Ricardo, central defenders Wes Brown and O'Shea, defensive all-rounder Phil Neville and striker Rooney.

Now, Rooney has replaced Fletcher.

Who else can he replace?
The answer is, he has no choice!
This made Ferguson feel depressed.

It was as if the pacemaker implanted in his heart was no longer working.

In fact, Ferguson has always been aware of the problems Manchester United is facing.

There is no goalkeeper who can be trusted.

Ferdinand lacks a stable partner.

Roy Keane is getting old and has not yet found a suitable successor.

Beckham left the team and the gamble on Veron failed. Manchester United has not yet built the more continental midfield organization and offensive system that Ferguson expected.

Rooney and Ronaldo are still young.

To sum up all of this, Manchester United has problems in almost every aspect.

This made Ferguson feel tired.

But just when he was a little confused and wanted to make a substitution but there was no one available, Yang Cheng next door suddenly made a substitution, which made the evil fire in his heart suddenly burst out.

What a bully!
Ferguson's eyes turned red.

At this time, Yang Cheng replaced Lambert with Dave Kitson.

With little time left in the game, Kitson replacing Lambert was considered a positional substitution.

But this is obviously strengthening the attack.

Everyone knows that Kitson is the top attacker for Bayswater Chinese this season.

He has scored 30 goals in 15 Championship games so far.

Many British media have been paying attention to this local center forward before, because he has scored four double goals this season.

Yang Cheng replaced Kitson at this time, clearly intending to score a goal.

Ferguson had the urge to go on the field and fight himself.

……

After Kitson came on, Bayswater Chinese's frontcourt impact became stronger.

Ribery and Aaron Lennon also played more on the two flanks.

In the 82nd minute, Ribery dribbled the ball continuously between Gary Neville and Scholes on the left side of the penalty area and managed to get the ball out.

A long shot from the left corner of the penalty area was slightly off target.

But the home team tasted the sweetness and continued with their previous tactics.

In the 85th minute, Aaron Lennon dribbled the ball on the right but was blocked and fouled by Heinze.

The referee gave Bayswater Chinese a free kick opportunity on the right side of the frontcourt.

Italian coach Gianni Vio once again walked to the sidelines to direct the team's free kick attack arrangements.

Ribery took the free kick, which went around the wall and landed accurately at the back post.

Koscielny got the first point and headed the ball back to the middle.

Kitson used his body to push Sylvester away and shot with his left foot.

The ball came from the left side. Shooting with the left foot has advantages, but it is difficult to control.

Kitson's shot from the edge of the small penalty area was just too high.

Everyone felt sorry for him.

The England center forward even squatted in front of Manchester United's small penalty area with his head in his hands, looking extremely regretful.

This is Manchester United’s goal!
If he succeeds, his worth will skyrocket!
Yang Cheng also felt it was a pity.

Just one minute later, Ronaldo dribbled past Danny Collins on the right.

Jose Fonte provided timely assistance and blocked Ronaldo's cross from the right side of the penalty area.

Joe Hart decisively left the goal and snatched the ball from mid-air before Saha and Rooney.

At this time, Yang Cheng used up his last substitution quota.

He replaced Modric with Gerhan Inler.

Modric also fought hard in this game, but he didn't have the incessant running stamina of Las Diarra. He was still young and the core of the team, so Yang Cheng substituted him.

With the addition of Inler, Bayswater Chinese's midfield has been revitalized.

In the final minutes, both sides seemed to be trying to create chances, but in reality, neither side was able to pose a threat.

Referee Stiles also blew the whistle to end the game in the 93rd minute.

……

The moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the entire Loftus Road Stadium was completely boiling!

More than 1 fans stood up, cheering and applauding wildly.

The Bayswater Chinese players were equally excited.

The players on the bench rushed onto the field to celebrate with their teammates.

They really turned the tables on Manchester United!
This is actually true!

Yang Cheng was also in front of the home team's coaching booth. He was so excited that he rushed out of the court, shouting and venting his inner excitement.

That’s Ferguson’s Manchester United!

And it was a full-strength Manchester United! Although Manchester United is not as strong as Chelsea and Arsenal this season, and the victory or defeat in the cup competition does not represent the team's strength level, it is still the legendary Premier League overlord!

More importantly, Bayswater Chinese made it to the final of the League Cup!

This is definitely an incredible legend for a Championship team!
“Let’s congratulate the Bayswater Chinese!”

"They become the first second-tier team to reach the League Cup final since Tranmere Rovers in 2000."

"They will face the winner of Liverpool and Chelsea in this season's final."

"If Bayswater Chinese can beat their opponents in the final, they will become the first team in the history of the Premier League to win the League Cup as a second-tier league team!"

"This will undoubtedly make Premier League history!"

"The last second-tier team to win the League Cup was Sheffield Wednesday in 1991."

"At the time, the Premier League hadn't even been created yet."

"But we must remind Yang Cheng and his team."

"Whether the opponent in the final is Benítez's Liverpool or Mourinho's Chelsea, they are both very tough and formidable opponents. They must be in better shape than when facing Manchester United to have a chance of winning."

“But no matter what, tonight, let us celebrate the Bayswater Chinese together!”

"Congratulations to Ribery! We were very impressed by his performance tonight!"

"We have every reason to believe that after tonight, Ribery will become a rising star in English football and even European football."

"At least in these two rounds of matches, his brilliance even outshined Ronaldo and Rooney."

……

When the match in London was over, the entire English football world was in an uproar.

Countless fans were shocked by Manchester United's capsize and surprised by the tenacity of the Chinese in Bayswater.

Last season, this dark horse, as a third-tier team, overturned Ranieri's Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Everyone thought that this was just an accidental upset.

Unexpectedly, this season, this newly promoted team in the Championship not only eliminated Southampton and Portsmouth, but also reversed Manchester United with a total score of 2-1 in the semi-finals and entered the final.

This is definitely an earthquake-level upset!

No one could have imagined that a Premier League powerhouse like Manchester United would be eliminated by a Championship team.

Ribery, Lass Diarra, Joe Hart, Aaron Lennon and other players who performed well in the game were reported in the media and entered the fans' field of vision.

In the post-match press conference, Ferguson took all the responsibility for the loss.

The Manchester United godfather said that a very important reason why the team lost unexpectedly to Bayswater Chinese away from home was the schedule.

Ferguson again slammed England's Christmas schedule.

In fact, everyone has become accustomed to Ferguson's routine.

As long as Manchester United perform well, the Christmas schedule is a wonderful feature of the Premier League.

If United perform poorly, especially if they fall behind in the league table, Ferguson will criticize the Christmas schedule.

This is a routine that everyone is familiar with.

For Manchester United players, the most criticized part by the media and fans is the defense.

The performance of Manchester United defenders in this game was described by The Sun as a disaster scene after a typhoon passed through.

Especially Sylvester.

He got the lowest score of 5 in the game and failed.

Among Manchester United's players, three of them scored 3 points.

Goalkeeper Howard, center back Sylvester and center forward Saha.

It just forms a central axis.

Howard made several beautiful saves throughout the game, but his overall performance was still unsatisfactory.

"Introducing a high-level goalkeeper has become something that Manchester United must do," the Times analyzed.

Another area where we need to strengthen our recruitment as soon as possible is central defence.

"Neither O'Shea nor Sylvester could produce a satisfactory and stable performance."

It was Heinze instead.

Although he made consecutive mistakes in the second half, he still got a passing score of 6 points.

The reason is that apart from the mistakes, he did well and was relatively stable the rest of the time.

Saha was even worse off.

This center forward, who Ferguson had high hopes for, almost disappeared for most of the rest of the time except for a flash in the opening game and a penalty kick.

Being able to create a penalty at the start of the game but only getting 5 points shows how bad Saha's performance was.

The Times asserted, "This will be another Veron-style signing by Ferguson."

The mainstream opinion of the British media is also dissatisfied with the two talented new players, Rooney and Ronaldo.

Especially with Ribery shining.

But there was a phenomenon that made Yang Cheng feel very unhappy.

Even though Ribery performed better, the British mainstream media still prefers Rooney and Ronaldo.

Their reports gave Yang Cheng the feeling that they still expected and believed in Rooney and Ronaldo, and did not expect Ribery to continue to give excellent performances.

why?
The Sun has the answer.

"His image doesn't look like that of a football star."

What this means is that no matter how well you play football, it will be useless if your appearance is not up to standard.

……

Yang Cheng ignored the media's harassment.

After playing against Manchester United, he led the players to prepare for the game.

The League Cup final is on February 2 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.

In the next month, Bayswater Chinese will do their best to sprint for the Championship.

During training, Yang Cheng could also clearly feel the change in the players' mentality.

Reaching the final of the League Cup and reversing Manchester United made the players more confident.

The morning after the game against Manchester United, after Yang Cheng led the team to participate in recovery training, he received a call from his agent.

Britain's most famous broker, Jonathan Barnett of the Stellar Group.

In Yang Cheng's previous life, this famous English agent arranged for his star player Ashley Cole to secretly contact Mourinho in June this year, and was sued by Arsenal and had his license temporarily revoked.

But now, he is still the number one boss in English football.

When Yang Cheng received a call from Jonathan Barnett and learned that he would visit in the afternoon, he already felt something was wrong.

What he worried about most happened.
