Red Rebels

After a day of training, the players dragged their tired bodies and left the training base one after another.

After becoming professional players in the professional league, their salaries are also different from before. Most of them can rent a comfortable apartment near Newton Heath, or even two or three people can rent together.

Evra, Curtis, and Terry shared the rent together. They all moved out of the fan's house and lived in a community not far from the training base. They walked back and forth every day.

But unlike the previous situations of talking and laughing on the way home, Curtis seemed a little silent today.

"What's the matter? It's your first start, and you feel a lot of pressure?" Evra hugged his good friend. They have been together for more than two years, and they are the earliest members of this club.

Curtis shook his head, but nodded again, a little at a loss.

"Come on, Curtis, isn't it just a first start? Besides, professional players need to go through this once. Although you came too suddenly this time, you should know that if you seize the opportunity, you will be the front line. The main force of the team!" Terry explained from the side.

Curtis has been longing for the main position of a professional team for a long time. He joined the team at the same time as Evra, but Evra has already established a firm foothold in the team, although this year his main position was lost to Abidal. However, because of his age, Curtis could only participate in the youth team and the reserve team.

This reminded Curtis of the words left by coach Mourinho when he left the club just now.

"Don't be nervous, little bastard, you can do it, as long as you perform normally according to your usual ability!"

But is it normal?

In the past, it was played between the youth team and the reserve team, which was not taken seriously, but now it is the first team, a regular professional league game in the English C, maybe there will be league highlights on weekends, even if Curtis is usually heartless , this time also can not calm down.

"By the way, did you tell your parents?" Evra suddenly remembered.

When Curtis heard this, he immediately shook his head, "No, not yet, I just found out!"

Terry pushed him with a smile, "Then go, tell your parents that you will start on behalf of the team this Saturday, and see if they will come to watch the game."

Curtis shook his head, "Probably not, my father is very busy with work, and my mother is also busy, and they are all far away in London, so they won't come to watch my game!"

But having said that, Curtis decided to make a phone call.

As soon as he ran into the apartment, Curtis locked himself in the room, took out his mobile phone, and with a trembling right hand, he dialed the series of familiar mobile phone numbers, and soon there was a beep from the receiver.

"Hi, Dad, I'm Curtis!" After the phone call, Curtis said tremblingly.

"Well, son, what's the matter?" Davis was clearly busy on the phone, as he always was.

Curtis hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "I just came back from training, and the head coach, Mr. Mourinho, told me that I will start tomorrow's game!"

"Oh, it's starting again, that's good, you have to play hard, you know?"

Curtis nodded heavily and hummed, "Dad, will you watch me play?" His tone was full of expectation.

"It depends on the situation, son. I'm very busy recently. I'm afraid I won't be able to get away. By the way, who is your opponent?"

"Brighton, Dad!" Curtis was a little disappointed.

"Oh, it seems very strong, but it's okay, son, work hard!" Davis encouraged Curtis.

After hanging up the phone, Curtis fell down on his bed in disappointment. He knew that his father was busy taking care of the family, but he still hoped that his parents could come to Manchester to watch him play football.

This is the first professional league start in his life, how much he hopes his parents can witness this moment with him.

Davis on the phone hung up and soon got busy again.

After finally getting off work, when he returned home, his wife had prepared a delicious meal and was waiting for him.

"Honey, Curtis called today!" Davis said with a smile while eating.

Although there is little time to look after his son on weekdays, Davis is still very proud of his son. He has always been the captain of the youth team in the new Manchester United, and the club values ​​him very much.

"Really?" said Mrs. Davis, laughing.

"Well, I heard that he will start another game tomorrow. This guy seems very excited. This is not the first time he has started. Look at his excitement. Don't mess it up then!" Dai Weiss shook his head and laughed.

"No, our son is great!" Mrs. Davis followed with a smile, "Who is the opponent?"

Davis thought for a while, but he didn't pay much attention just now, "It seems, it seems to be called Brighton, I should have heard it right..."

But as soon as the words came out, Davis himself was stunned, and looked at his wife in disbelief, who was also stunned.

Davis suddenly jumped up from the dining table, ran to the briefcase he had brought home just now, grabbed a newspaper from it, opened the sports page, and soon found the game preview in an inconspicuous corner. It is clearly written that tomorrow at 4 pm, Manchester City Stadium, the new Manchester United will host Brighton.

"God... oh my god, it's... it's the English C League, I thought it was the reserve team!" Davis looked at his wife in disbelief.

Mrs. Davis has also come to him, staring blankly at the notice in the newspaper, "This is Curtis's first professional league game, dear!"

"Yeah, no wonder he suddenly called me and asked me if I want to watch him live!" Davis said regretfully.

"Then how do you answer?" Mrs. Davis asked concerned.

Davis looked annoyed, "I... I didn't hear clearly at the time, I thought it was a reserve team game, so I told him I was busy and didn't have time to go, he must be very disappointed!"

After finishing speaking, Davis shook his head immediately, "No, there is still time now, I'll call and book a ticket right away, if it doesn't work, we'll take the train overnight!"

He would never let himself miss the opportunity to watch his son's first professional league game, otherwise, he would die of regret!

The weather on the second day was very good, the sky was bright and clear, and it was a rare good weather.

The team's bus slowly drove into the parking lot of the city stadium, and the bright red bus immediately aroused cheers from the surrounding teams. They all happily welcomed the warriors who were about to play like heroes.

Mourinho was the first to get off the bus, and the fans immediately sang praises. Although the Portuguese has only coached the club for a short time, he has already conquered the hearts of the club fans through his ability and achievements.

Then every player will think of a burst of cheers and applause when they come down. They are all the fans' support. Support the team as always.

Distin officially transferred to Newcastle yesterday. Taking advantage of the latter's injury-filled camp, the new Manchester United ruthlessly slaughtered their opponents. Newcastle paid a transfer fee of 1.8 million pounds for Distin.

Of course, according to Xiao Yu's knowledge, Newcastle won.

As for Stasson, he has also left the new Manchester United and went to Birmingham. Bruce paid him a transfer fee of 750,000 pounds, which is ten times the value of the latter when he joined the new Manchester United. Bruce, who had a headache, couldn't wait to put Stamson in the starting lineup for the next league game.

The new Manchester United, which is also full of injuries, has Evra, Terry, Curtis and Bosingwa's defense in this game. The goalkeeper was injured by Schmeichel, and Almunia started instead of him.

The front trident is still Kitson, Malouda and Hleb, and the midfield three players are Juninho Jr., Aarau Diarra and Essien. Paulson is a little injured, so he is not arranged. The starting lineup.

The five players sitting on the bench are Crouch, Palacio, Wright Phillips, De Rossi and Hangeland. Mourinho will definitely not let him play.

With a remnant team facing a strong opponent, the new Manchester United was looked down upon by the media before the game, especially the bets made by the bookmakers were all in favor of Brighton, who has a neat main lineup and has performed well recently.

Everyone agrees that the defense will be the most fatal flaw of the new Manchester United in this game, because Evra and Bosingwa are strong offensively and weak defensively, and Curtis is under 16 years old and it is his first start. The defensive line configuration is really worrying.

But even so, when Curtis stepped off the bus, the fans still gave him warm applause as a sign of encouragement. He is a child of the new Manchester United. He has been here since the first day of the club. All fans want him to be successful and stay with the club for the rest of his life.

"Curtis, Curtis!"

When the players were about to enter the locker room, Curtis suddenly heard a familiar voice calling him from the crowd.

"Dad, Mom!" Curtis suddenly saw his parents squeezed out from the crowd, and was a little stunned, tears almost bursting out of his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Mourinho smiled and patted Curtis on the shoulder, "Little bastard, go, I'll give you five minutes!"

When Curtis heard this, he immediately thanked Mourinho, and then ran to his parents. Seeing the dusty appearance of the two of them, Curtis never thought that they came here overnight, which made him very moved.

"Curtis..." Davis hugged his son vigorously, trying to say a lot of words of encouragement, but in the end he couldn't say anything, and his wife wiped away tears.

"Dad, Mom..." Curtis was also speechless.

"Work hard, son, your mother and I are staring at you from the stands!" Davis signaled his son to catch up with the team.

Curtis nodded heavily, with an extremely determined expression!
