"What a wonderful game." After the final whistle sounded and Manchester United officially announced their defeat at home, Ferguson approached George and said in a rather regretful tone while shaking hands to congratulate his proud disciple, "George, if you still stay at Manchester United, I think Manchester United's results this season should be even better than they are now. Maybe there is still hope to compete with Wenger for the league championship. Maybe the media will treat me this time." The comments are indeed correct, I am no longer suitable to continue to be the head coach of Manchester United."
It's no wonder Ferguson felt this way. After all, everyone has witnessed with their own eyes the tremendous changes George has brought to Tottenham this season, and how he has withstood numerous doubts and turned this team that has been hovering in the middle of the league for more than ten years into a very promising team. A strong team that hopes to qualify for the Champions League and even led the league standings for a time. Therefore, in Ferguson's view, if he had chosen to hand over the position of Manchester United coach to George before the end of last season instead of insisting on continuing to coach the team, I am afraid that Manchester United would not need such a long time to rebuild now, and may even continue to Compete with old rival Arsenal in the Premier League.
"Alex, please don't say that." George couldn't help being startled by Ferguson's emotion, and quickly said that he was definitely not worthy of such a high evaluation. "You know, although I also like to promote Young players, but I have very high requirements for these young players. Therefore, if I come to be the head coach of Manchester United, then Fletcher, O'Shea and Brown may not be able to get such good results as they did under you. There are so many opportunities for exercise. Alex, you should be very clear about this."
"That's true." After hearing George's reply, Ferguson pondered for a while, and found that the truth was exactly what the other party said, so he had to nod his head in agreement, "Indeed, although others may not be able to tell, George, you You are really picky about your players' abilities. If you were to be the Manchester United coach, then Darren (Fletcher) and Wes (Brown) might really be able to sit through the bench."
As a time traveler with past life memories, George naturally has higher pursuits for players. After all, when he knows which players can achieve higher achievements in the future, and he also has the ability to recruit these players to his staff, George generally will not consider playing for players who are slightly inferior in comparison. Opportunity.
For example, knowing the heights Fletcher and Mascherano can reach in the future, how many people will choose Fletcher, who came from Manchester United's youth training, instead of introducing someone with higher ability than Scotland? How good is Mascherano? So, George had no problem doing this. After all, any head coach will hope that the team he coaches is as strong as possible.
"But having said that, before this game, I really didn't expect the backcourt." This head-to-head confrontation with Tottenham, especially the various problems exposed by Manchester United in the second half of the game, made Ferguson aware of arranging a backcourt. How important is a stable release point. Therefore, Sir Alex Ferguson's desire to get Carrick has become even stronger: "George, please sell Carrick to me. We can discuss the price. I promise that Tottenham will never suffer a loss from this." .”
Seeing Ferguson's longing eyes, George couldn't help but hesitate. From a rational point of view, selling Carrick, the core of the team's playmaker, to Manchester United, a fellow competitor, is undoubtedly an act of patronizing the enemy, and it is very likely that Manchester United will complete its reconstruction earlier than in history. Give Tottenham a strong enemy in the league. Emotionally speaking, Carrick has now integrated into Tottenham's tactical system. His gentle and steady character and outstanding awareness have won the favor of many players and built up a certain network of contacts. Selling him will not be beneficial to the team. The harmony and stability of the locker room.
However, for George, although selling Carrick has various disadvantages, it is not unacceptable. Because Tottenham's current league ranking is very promising to qualify for the European Champions Cup next season, so by the end of this season, even if George sends Carrick away by then, he can still use this as a guise to recruit enough A player to replace Carrick in the playmaking role.
"Alex, we'd better discuss this matter in the long term." Although he had already made a decision in his heart, George still did not immediately relent on Carrick's transfer. "Now the league is at its most critical moment. At this stage, I don’t want the players’ status to be affected by transfer rumors. If because of this, Tottenham is caught up or even overtaken by Newcastle or Liverpool behind in the standings, then my side will lose more than the gain. .”
"Okay, then after the season is over, I will come back to George to discuss this matter with you." Regarding the reasons given by George, Ferguson thought about it and felt that now was indeed not the best time to talk about a transfer, so he readily accepted it. "By the way, there is one more thing that I need your help with, George. I think Liverpool are chasing points very fiercely now. If your Tottenham fail to withstand the offensive of these teams, they will lose the Champions League in the end." If you want a seat, don’t blame me for using Champions League qualifications to seduce your players. So, even if it is for the benefit of Tottenham, George, you must keep Liverpool out of the Champions League and don’t let them put Tottenham away. Squeeze it down~"
After that, Ferguson laughed and walked into the player tunnel, leaving only George with a black hair in a mess on the sidelines - what is this? Alex, was your math taught by your PE teacher?
You know, after defeating Manchester United in an away game and winning two consecutive league victories, Tottenham has successfully exchanged positions with Manchester United in the Premier League standings with this victory, ranking third in the league behind Chelsea by three points. Therefore, what Ferguson just said to George can be said to be completely useless, because the task of preventing Liverpool from getting into the top four in the league needs to be completed by Sir Alex Ferguson himself!
"I wonder if Alex realizes this later, will someone else be unlucky?" In the spirit of a dead friend but a poor friend, George rubbed his chin maliciously, thinking in his heart for Manchester United in advance The players mourned for the unfortunate encounter they were about to face, "Alex in an angry state is very scary, and I won't touch this bad luck."
Sure enough, as George expected, when Ferguson learned from Meulensten that Manchester United, which had lost this round, was actually squeezed to fourth place in the league by Tottenham, he realized that Sir Alex Ferguson had just lost his master in front of his apprentice. He got furious and once again sprayed all the Manchester United players in the locker room.
"If we fail to get a Champions League spot at the end of this season, then I will definitely suggest to the board of directors to clean up the team this summer! As a member of Manchester United who is fourth in the league, don't you Are you embarrassed by this ranking?!"
Ferguson did have reason to be angry. After all, since the creation of the Premier League, Manchester United's final league ranking every season has been either first or second, let alone falling to fourth in the league.
Therefore, Ferguson's harsh words to Manchester United players were not meant to scare them - if Manchester United really loses their qualification for the Champions League, Sir Alex Ferguson will definitely ask the board of directors to increase the transfer budget and start a campaign against the first team. A big purge!
When the news came out that Tottenham defeated Manchester United 2-1 in an away game, the media and fans once again focused their attention on this team that has brought them countless surprises this season, and they all praised George for surpassing his two players. Teacher, become another top head coach in the Premier League!
Although Manchester United, which is in the rebuilding period, has a poor record this season, Ferguson's team is not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by anyone. There are still only a handful of teams that can defeat the Red Devils at Old Trafford. Therefore, these good British media have no pressure at all to put the hat of the top coach in the Premier League on George - after all, just nearly a year ago, they called George the "No. 1 Young Coach in the Premier League."
While the British media are singing praises for George, many teams are focusing on the players, wondering whether they can poach these high-quality resources from Tottenham.
Especially Luca Toni and Drogba, who each scored a goal in this game, have attracted the covetousness of many teams with their performance. Especially Luca Toni, who has better shooting skills. Now that excellent centers are increasingly scarce, this Italian center who has performed well at Tottenham for half a season has attracted more attention, and transfer offers are pouring in!
In addition, George also received many offers from Vidic, Ledley King, Mascherano and others, but George's attitude was very firm, that is, he rejected them all!
However, although there are many teams interested in Tottenham players, because Tottenham is very hopeful to enter the Champions League next season, and the salary and personal treatment offered by George to the players are also very generous, plus Tottenham They are not short of money, so except for a few top giants, it can be said that it is quite difficult for other teams to successfully poach Tottenham.
Perhaps it's because playing against two strong opponents, Newcastle and Manchester United, consumed too much energy from Tottenham players. In the 30th round of the Premier League on March 27, Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton finally ended up with a one-to-one draw after a full 90 minutes of fierce battle. It was extremely regrettable. The ground only took away one point from St. Mary's Stadium, and the winning streak came to an abrupt end!
