Wilmslow, Cheshire, is about 18km away from Manchester.
This area is a residential area favored by the wealthy and is the most sought-after residential area in the UK outside of central London. Wilmslow has one of the highest proportions of wealthy people in North England.
Bai Ye and Perrin first met in Manchester, and then Bai Ye took Perrin's car to Sir Alex Ferguson's home.
Bai Ye was underage in Spain and didn't have a driver's license, let alone in England, so he had no choice but to take a ride. Fortunately, Bournemouth's training base is very close to where I live, so I don't need to drive, I can get there on foot.
This is also the residence specially prepared by Bournemouth Club for Bai Ye. At first, Bai Ye rented the house by himself. When the contract was renewed later, the club simply helped Bai Ye solve this problem.
On the way, Bai Ye asked Perrin, "Why does Sir Alex Ferguson want to see me."
"I don't know. He didn't tell me. I went to see him to talk about whether I could introduce some people to him. After all, there are people who are good at doing things."
Peilan drove the car himself, without a driver, and answered Bai Ye's question.
Bai Ye didn't ask any more questions.
Some memories of Sir Alex Ferguson flashed through his mind.
Manchester United's current reputation as a giant in Europe comes from the Ferguson era. Now it is difficult to imagine what Manchester United was like before Ferguson. After all, Sir Alex Ferguson coached Manchester United for 27 years.
He led Manchester United in a total of 1,500 games, achieved 895 victories, and won 38 championships including 13 Premier League championships, 2 UEFA Champions League championships, and 5 FA Cup championships. He also helped Manchester United in the 1998-99 season. Achieve the great cause of "Triple Crown".
Whether it is the time span of leading the team or the honors and achievements he has received, Ferguson is unprecedented for Manchester United, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for others to come after him.
He is the godfather of Manchester United and the founder of the Red Empire.
And such a character, when Bai Ye first met him, had a kind smile on his face, just like an ordinary old neighbor.
"Perlan is here, come in quickly."
Ferguson and his wife Cathy welcomed Baiye.
Walking into the home, although the house is very expensive, it does not have an exaggerated atmosphere. Instead, it is very simple and simple.
This also has something to do with Ferguson's own character.
What surprised Bai Ye was that during the whole meal, Ferguson didn't talk about anything about Bai Ye's court. He just patted him on the shoulder and said, good young man, come on.
Instead, I chatted with Perrin about some old friends.
Even after retirement, Ferguson was still full of enthusiasm for football, and he even invited Perrin to watch the Manchester United game on the weekend.
pity,
Bai Ye wants to compete and has no time.
Everyone got along really well throughout lunch.
soon.
After the meal, Ferguson and his wife Cathy saw the two off, while Perrin went to start the car. Ferguson stopped Bai Ye with a smile on his face.
Bai Ye paused in his heart, knowing that this was what Ferguson wanted to say.
"Manchester United is in confusion and it needs a hero. Can it be you?"
Ferguson asked this question.
Then Bai Ye did not let Bai Ye answer, but continued, "This is just a possibility. Go quickly and don't let Perrin wait too long."
Bai Ye nodded, waved goodbye, got into Perrin's car and left Ferguson's home.
Ferguson's words did not shock Bai Ye too much.
As a coach, Ferguson has a good eye for recognizing people, and it is not impossible for him to be able to see his own potential.
On the way back.
Perrin didn't ask Baiye what Ferguson said. Maybe he didn't see it, or maybe he guessed it and felt there was no need to ask.
After parting ways with Perrin at the airport, Bai Ye did not return to Bournemouth. Instead, he flew directly to Spain, where he wanted to spend Christmas with his family.
In Madrid.
Bai Ye had a pleasant day, but he still didn't see his sister Bai Yue.
Because their vacation time is completely staggered. Bai Ye is going home early for Christmas, because he has to train during the Christmas period. After all, the game will start on the 26th.
As for Bai Yue, there are still games in the past few days, and the team plans to have a holiday around Christmas.
When Bai Jianguo saw Bai Ye, he happily chatted with him and asked him if he was used to living in England. After all, the weather in Madrid was so different from that in Madrid.
Also, the food is quite different from Spain.
If Bai Jianguo stayed alone, he would definitely not be willing.
It's okay for Bai Ye to stay for a long time. In fact, he spends most of his time thinking about the game every day, and he doesn't have time to think about these things. The team will have special people to arrange the food. The taste arrangements for these foreign players are not that big. Difference.
After returning to Bournemouth.
Bai Ye quickly entered the training state, and all the players came back to continue training.
The team will not have another holiday on Christmas. At most, they will end training a little early so that everyone can go home early and have dinner.
This has no impact on Bai Ye, he has already gone home.
Time flies.
When Christmas Eve songs are sung all over England.
When the flying snow fell from the sky, dust fell into the streets of Bournemouth.
For the people of England, the old year is over and the new one has begun!
No. 26.
On the first day after Christmas.
Bournemouth plays Fulham at home.
Fulham had been playing in the Premier League for 13 consecutive years before this season and had just been relegated to the Championship this season.
The turning point for it all came last year.
In July 2013, Fayed, who had been in charge of Fulham for 16 years, sold his shares to Pakistani-American Shahid Khan.
In the 2013/14 season, Fulham performed poorly in the Premier League and fell into a relegation crisis. Although the team hired Magath as the new coach, it ultimately failed to achieve relegation, and the team's 13-year Premier League career ended.
After some of the main players left, the team's combat effectiveness became somewhat weak.
The entire Bournemouth team has a belief that they want to continue their winning streak!
boom!
Boom boom!
That night, the Christmas atmosphere had not completely disappeared, and fans at the Vitality Stadium had already gathered together to cheer for the team!
The moment the players came out of the tunnel and the fans saw Bai Ye, the atmosphere reached a climax!
"White leaves!"
"The first battle of the new year, defeat them!"
"come on! Come on!"
The voices of countless fans gathered together to make this cold winter night seem less silent.
The captains of both teams pick sides.
Bournemouth wins the kick-off.
Afterwards, players from both sides stood in the center circle.
The referee looked at the watch on his wrist. When the time came, he immediately blew the whistle!
drop!
The game officially begins! !
