Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 845 Clash of Armies, Delivery of Takeout Amidst the Flames of War

A popular online forum, Dongqiudi, discussed an interview with Cristiano Ronaldo, saying: "The mouse is on the cat's back, so even if it keeps making mistakes, it won't be insulted."

[Holy crap, is Luo Ge really going all out against Ten Hach? Aren't you afraid of getting criticized?]

[What are you afraid of? Didn't we just say we weren't staying on the team? If we're not staying, what are you afraid of? Just do it!]

[I've gone from hating to loving! I love people like him who speak their minds. Well done, Boss Luo! Kill Teng Hai!]

[So Ronaldo was actually a spy sent by Emmanuel Eden to Manchester United? That's incredible!]

[Don't say that there's some truth to it; I want to see how I, Teng Sheng, respond.]

Many fans were worried for Ronaldo.

Given Ten Hag's personality, he will definitely retaliate against the Portuguese after watching this interview!

At that time, both Ronaldo and Eric will be caught in a storm of public opinion.

However, it seems that Ronaldo's remarks today are not yet over.

"You think Eric has done a lot of wrong things?"

“It was true before, and it is true now. He has always made mistakes, but he always tries to say what he thinks is right in front of the camera. He probably thinks that this will cover up his mistakes.”

Cristiano Ronaldo pursed his lips, his eyes filled with disgust for Ten Hag.

With the season over and it confirmed that he would not stay with the team, Ronaldo was unwilling to continue the feud with Ten Hag: "He did not give the players the respect they deserved, which is not what a qualified coach should do."

"You just said you won't stay with the team next season. Is that because Eric didn't respect you enough, or because of the mistakes Eric made?"

"Both are true; respect is one aspect, but incorrect training is another."

Cristiano Ronaldo shrugged: "But the main reason I left Manchester United will not change, which is that I saw rats here."

"Manchester United is excellent, a great club, and I would never disagree with that."

"But you have to understand, everyone hates rats. When a rat is found in a pot, no one will eat the food from that pot anymore."

“I now have the right to leave. Since I have already seen the rats, leaving now is the best option for me.”

Cristiano Ronaldo has repeatedly emphasized his aversion to rats to Morgan.

The existence of one rat can ruin an entire great club; that should be Ronaldo's core point today.

Morgan took a deep breath: "I never expected Eric to be like this..."

"Everyone knows Eric is bad, but no one is standing up to say it."

“They are unwilling to bear the consequences, but I am. Now that the rats have been discovered, someone has to step forward.”

"..."

"So in your opinion, as long as Eric stays at Manchester United, the club has no future?"

"The coach is the foundation of a club, and Manchester United has achieved great things. But if an amateur is in charge of a top club for 10 years or more, he will eventually ruin the club."

Management and coaching staff are the two fundamental decision-making levels of a professional team.

Cristiano Ronaldo later implied that there were serious problems with Manchester United's management, and that if the coaching staff was also unprofessional, the team was destined to have no future.

"But Eric earned two Euros at Manchester United..."

"I never said that Eric's achievements at Manchester United were due to his own efforts."

Cristiano Ronaldo knew what Morgan was going to say and interrupted the host: "This is a common misconception. A mouse is on the back of a cat, and when the cat finds food, the mouse jumps off. You see the mouse eating, and then you assume that the mouse found all that food."

"The mouse might even tell you that thanks to him, the cat would have gone hungry today."

"Then……"

Cristiano Ronaldo shrugged: "Everyone thinks the rat is right, because it's true that the rat ate the food first after finding it."

"I was pessimistic about Manchester United's future, which is why I left."

"..."

hiss……

Morgan inhales.

It turns out that my previous praise of the Portuguese was not wrong.

It was precisely because of the previous hype that Piers Morgan was able to get this breaking news firsthand!

Of course, media professionals are always greedy.

They just want more.

“Now that you’ve made up your mind to leave, your assessment of Manchester United is absolutely objective.”

"of course."

"Can we discuss TY, the youngest three-time Ballon d'Or winner? What do you think of him?"

"You can put aside your teammates and speak boldly."

When Morgan asked this question, many fans in the radio studio held their breath.

"To be honest, I wasn't very supportive of TY at first because he was perceived to be with Eric. Eric's disrespect towards me led to some of my aversion to TY."

"But after thinking about it carefully, I realized that he had nothing to do with this incident. He was also a victim, just not as obviously as I was."

It's already tiring for a cat to carry a mouse on its back.

However, this cat is big enough that it can easily lift the weight of a mouse.

"Well..."

Cristiano Ronaldo pursed his lips: "TY is indeed quite good, um, very good."

“If it weren’t for Eric, I would have stayed at Manchester United, because playing with TY would have been a really good thing, but maybe I realized it a little too late.”

A hint of regret flashed in Ronaldo's eyes as he spoke, but the emotion quickly disappeared.

"So where do you plan to play after leaving Manchester United? Will you stay in one of the top five leagues?"

"..."

Cristiano Ronaldo gritted his teeth, and his eyes slowly reddened.

"Maybe, maybe not, I can't answer that question right now."

……

Top post on Dongqiudi: Cristiano Ronaldo gives an interview to Morgan, making a controversial cat-and-mouse analogy.

Cristiano Ronaldo's interview sparks heated discussion: Ten Hag is an idiot, his tactics are flawed.

Cristiano Ronaldo's interview sparks heated discussion: Ten Hag stole the fruits of Manchester United players' hard work; he is far less professional than the players imagined.

Cristiano Ronaldo's interview sparked heated discussion: "Because of Ten Hag's presence, I will not continue to stay at Manchester United; I cannot yet tell fans where I will play next season."

Cristiano Ronaldo's interview sparks heated discussion: ...

Morgan's show was a great success.

The football fans were completely enraged as Eskeriva's army and Ten Hag's army engaged in a brutal battle.

If this is the case in China where there are delays, then it's even more true for European fans who can easily watch the live stream; those guys are already fast-forwarding to the point of live brawls.

Cristiano Ronaldo's confrontation with Ten Hag seems to have been somewhat disrespectful to his former club.

However, upon closer examination, many of the things the Portuguese said actually make a lot of sense, especially the so-called "cat carrying a mouse" theory, which is practically the English version of "the fox borrowing the tiger's power".

Of course, the cat carrying the mouse is worse than the fox borrowing the tiger's power.

Ronaldo could team up with Escribé and then beat up Ten Hag together while having dinner with him.

I'm an Eric fan, but this time I'm on CR's (Cristiano Ronaldo's) side. Ten Hag is really disgusting, always taking credit for TY's (Cristiano Ronaldo's) success.

[What are you guys talking about? Isn't CR such an ingrate? He won the Champions League and then started criticizing his own team. He even participated in the treble-winning parade.]

Why not support Ronaldo? If Ten Hag were effective, why wasn't Manchester United the Champions League winners last season? I remember Manchester United only made it to the quarterfinals or semifinals last season, right?

[What? Second place in the league isn't a result, right? Last season, Eric led the team to second place in the league.]

[I don't care anymore, anyone who criticizes Ten Hach is an idiot, they should come out and take the blame!]

The battle was extremely fierce!

Ten Hag has more supporters than you might think!

Of course, Ronaldo also has a lot of support!

……

Xinhua News Agency International Sports: Cristiano Ronaldo announced his departure from the team during an interview with Morgan, and his remarks suggest a complete falling out with Ten Hag.

The front page headline of Mundo Deportivo is "Cristiano Ronaldo's Cat and Mouse Theory".

Porto News – Eric's "rat theory" leads Ronaldo to confront and blast Ten Hag.

The Sun's front-page headline—Dalot praised Morgan's interview with Ronaldo in a video, which was later removed.

"..."

Tang Ye realized he had underestimated the situation; things were far more serious than he had imagined, leaving him completely at a loss.

Good news: I wasn't attacked. Bad news: Mr. Eric and Manchester United were attacked.

From this perspective, not being attacked isn't exactly good news. Ronaldo didn't position himself as an adversary, which left Tang Ye unsure of his own stance.

Poor Mr. Eric.

Ugh.

This matter is very, very complicated, and given Eric's personality, he may respond.

So……

Tang Ye used his wisdom to conduct an in-depth calculation.

The conflict between Ten Hag and Ronaldo could very well develop in a similar way to the one between him and Eskriva.

The conflict is getting more and more serious.

Will Ronaldo also have to have dinner with Ten Hag?
Thinking of this, Tang Ye couldn't help but worry about Eric.

Lately, whenever I think of Ten Hag, my eyelids twitch. I always have this feeling that the head coach is about to get beaten up, even though Tang Ye knows that his worries will not come true.

correct.

Upon seeing the news about Dalot in The Sun, Tang Ye quickly called his teammates.

"Diogo, be careful. Maybe you shouldn't like this post yet."

Tang Ye offered Dalot some advice.

Dalot has only recently secured a starting position at full-back for Manchester United, and his skills are improving rapidly.

We can't afford to let Ten Hag target us now!
“Okay, Tom, but don’t you think Ronnie is right?”

"That's true..."

Tang Ye shook his head: "But, okay, you should separate these two things first. Eric did make a mistake, but you need to watch yourself. You're different from Ronaldo; he's leaving the team, but you're staying here."

"I know... I just couldn't help it."

Dalot didn't hang up immediately. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly asked Tang Ye, "So you're not going to do anything? You should know where the problem lies now, right?"

"..."

"I……"

Tang Ye took a deep breath.

Dalot's question completely stumped him.

After Ronaldo's words, he certainly realized that Ten Hag was wrong.

But what can Tang Ye do as the first player to know Eric?

"Diogo, I'll think of something, I'll think of something..."

"I will definitely resolve this matter..."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Ye sighed helplessly.

It can only be said that he was truly helpless.

He could be considered the protagonist of this incident, but he was not within the scope of either side's attacks.

Ok……

You could say that Ten Hag and Ronaldo were fighting like two armies, but Tang Ye was just a deliveryman passing through the middle of the battlefield.

The soldiers of both armies knew of Tang Ye's existence, but they would not launch an attack on him.

Then the problem is coming.

How could a delivery driver who was just passing by stop this firefight?
The answer is: There's no way around it.

……

The Sun reports that Ten Hag has followed Morgan's social media account but has not yet responded.

Dongqiudi reposted Metro: Escriva's social media post shared a video of Morgan interviewing Ronaldo: Ronaldo Better.

Eskeriva is truly a talent, a pure talent.

The phrase "XXX Better" was originally used online to compare Messi and Ronaldo, but Escriva used it directly to comment on Morgan's interview video.

It seems like the coach is siding with Ronaldo in the Messi-Ronaldo debate, but in reality, the Messi-Ronaldo debate is from the past. The Chinese team coach's words indicate that he is siding with Ronaldo between Ronaldo and Ten Hag.

What is the underlying meaning of "Ronaldo Better"?
Isn't it just "Erik Worse"?

Ten Hag probably never imagined that Eskeriva and Ronaldo, two completely unrelated people, would join forces.

There's no way to defeat Ten Hag; it's incredibly difficult. Even powerhouses like Cristiano Ronaldo and Escriva would have to team up!

On the football forum Dongqiudi, a popular Chinese sports website, the question arises: when will Ten Hag respond directly to Ronaldo's comments? The Sun reports that 99.2% of British fans are waiting for an interview with Ten Hag, and 95% say they "can't wait."

Tang Ye folded the list he had just written and tucked it into a small notch in the upper right corner of his seat.

After casting his vote, Tang Ye looked left and right, then met Yao Ming's gaze in the last row, and the two exchanged winks.

Yao Ming is so tall that he needs to sit alone in the last row, which looks very impressive.

Clap clap clap!

clap clap clap...

"..."

"Is your position a little higher than others?"

Tang Ye and Yao Ming walked together.

Tang Ye is not actually short, but he looks incredibly short next to Yao Ming.

"It's a bit higher, otherwise why would I be the only one sitting here?"

Tang Ye nodded: "Haha."

"Tang Ye, will you participate in the World University Games in Chengdu the day after tomorrow? Some media outlets have reported that you might represent China as a university athlete?"

"Oh, yes, I'll go."

Tang Ye straightened his suit: "But not as an athlete."

"You can actually be considered a college student."

"Well... that's how it should be in theory, but I'm a bit different from regular college students. I didn't take the college entrance exam, so I'm not as smart as college students."

Tang Ye said.

Because he didn't attend a regular high school, he has an instinctive admiration for college students.

College students are all smart idiots!
She's quick-witted!
"So you won't be representing Peking University in the competition? If you are, I think you have a very high chance of winning the football championship."

"Haha, no, but I will present the award to the champion team. That should be it, if I remember correctly."

"May I ask your opinion on the new draft Sports Law? Or do you have any suggestions?"

“Very good, I think it’s very good. Hmm… but that thing is too big, and we’ll have to see how it works when broken down into smaller parts. Anyway, I think it’s very good. Actually, this bill has already been tested once in the local area.”

Have you discussed the East Asian Cup next month?

"Oh, that was a small competition, a meeting within the sports bureau; it didn't need so many people. As for the East Asian Cup..."

Tang Ye touched his hair: "I will participate in the East Asian Cup. It's a warm-up tournament before the World Cup. Other key players will also participate. We've already made our decision."

"in addition."

Tang Ye's eyes suddenly lit up: "A Hong Kong representative made a suggestion that mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan should jointly bid to host the 2034 FIFA World Cup. I think that's a great idea, and I would support it if we were to vote. But it's still early, so we can't make a decision yet; things are a bit complicated."
