They defeated Liverpool 2-0 in the first game of the league and beat Newcastle with seven goals in the second round away game. Tottenham's strong performance after the start of the new season put them at the top of the standings with a nine-goal difference. They are in the limelight for a while!
Although Arsenal also won two consecutive league victories and scored the same nine goals as Tottenham, the Gunners were penetrated by their opponents four times in these two games, plus the recent defeat in North London. In the derby, they were defeated by Tottenham 3-2, and without the reputation bonus of undefeated league championships in their previous lives, the Gunners were completely overshadowed by their rivals in the same city. Therefore, at this time, Arsenal can only stay depressed in the second position in the standings, watching the jubilant Tottenham fans show off their power in front of them.
"Tsk, you guys can take advantage of this opportunity to laugh a little more. It won't be long before you obediently return your position as the league leader to us!" Faced with this situation, Wei Wei felt extremely unhappy. Ella couldn't help but cursed viciously. This French strongman who has a bad relationship with Tottenham hopes from the bottom of his heart that the team can complete the lead in the standings as soon as possible. He does not want to see Tottenham pressing on his head again!
Unfortunately, Vieira's curse did not become a reality. In the subsequent third and fourth rounds of the Premier League on August 26 and August 28 respectively, Tottenham successfully continued their good momentum of three consecutive wins in all competitions in the new season, beating West Brom. Mwichi and Birmingham were defeated, and they continued to lead the league standings with 12 points from four games!
Just when Tottenham were winning consecutive games in the league and posing as if they planned to overthrow Arsenal and Manchester United's monopoly on the Premier League championship, George took Adele and Elizabeth's two family members to Monaco to attend the event. The draw ceremony for the 2004-05 UEFA Champions League group stage will be held there soon!
It stands to reason that the person accompanying George to the group drawing ceremony should be Marotta, who is the general manager of the club, or Charlie Sr., who serves as the assistant coach, or Ledley King, who serves as the first captain of the team. However, in the end, everyone gave up this task to Adele and Elizabeth with great tacit understanding. Although they do not have any official positions within the Tottenham club, their close relationship with George is enough for everyone to voluntarily give up this qualification to Adele and Elizabeth.
Regarding the goodwill shown by Marotta and others, George finally chose to accept it happily after making a big blush. In any case, attending the lottery ceremony with two beauties (especially one of them is his fiancée) is much better than coming to Monaco with a few pure men from a sensory perspective.
"Alex, it's been so long~" After walking into the venue, George saw the familiar face at a glance, and quickly stepped forward to say hello, "...You don't seem to be in a good mood. ? What, could it be that Roy (Keane)’s big mouth made you angry again?”
"Obviously, how could I feel better after the team had such a bad start? Really, these boys now don't make me worry at all. They are much more difficult to control than Ryan (Giggs) and the others back then. ." Regarding the questions raised by George, Ferguson did not hide anything and gave a straightforward answer. After all, it is well known that Manchester United has only achieved one win, two draws and one loss in the first four rounds of the league. It is normal for Sir Alex Ferguson to be unhappy about this.
"Uh, Alex. I think it's normal for the team to encounter difficulties in upgrading. You'd better not rush it. Look at me, haven't I completed the team's reconstruction work yet?" George naturally understands the anxiety displayed by Ferguson, because he also faced a similar situation to Ferguson last season! only. George's luck was much better than Ferguson's, and with the help of the golden finger of time traveler, Tottenham were able to survive the most difficult time, and finally crowned the double champion at the end of last season, and won the championship after a lapse of time. After more than 40 years, I once again got the opportunity to enter the Champions League!
"Tch, don't mention this in front of me, kid. After Tottenham was so severely tortured by you last season, they went all the way to win two championship trophies, the FA Cup and the League Cup, and also brought a league runner-up. You actually Dare you tell me that Tottenham's reconstruction work has not been completed yet?" After hearing George's persuasion, Ferguson not only did not relax, but also expressed strong criticism and dissatisfaction with his apprentice's behavior of being a good boy while getting cheap, " You are really unlucky. If there was even a little bit of instability in your team at that time, Tottenham's performance would have been greatly affected, or even directly relegated from the Premier League! Fortunately for you I was lucky, and the players I bought were quite honest and obedient, so this worst situation didn't happen."
"Yes, Alex." Regarding Ferguson's evaluation, George quickly nodded in agreement, "My actions at the time were indeed a bit too radical, and I always wanted to become a fat man in one bite. Think about it now, so It’s really dangerous to do.”
"Okay, let's not mention this matter again." Ferguson, who didn't want to continue talking about the team's reconstruction work with George, changed the subject and brought the topic to the upcoming lottery ceremony, reminding, "George, this lottery The result of the grouping may not be too ideal for Tottenham. You'd better prepare yourself mentally in advance to avoid being caught off guard by the reporters after the ceremony."
Due to their long-term absence from the European competition, Tottenham were placed in the fourth tier by UEFA in this draw ceremony. However, no one can take Spurs lightly for being in this league - being able to beat Chelsea to finish second in the Premier League and holding Arsenal winless in five north London derbies last season. This in itself is enough to illustrate the strength of Tottenham!
Although part of the reason for this is that Chelsea and Arsenal need to be distracted from the Champions League match, don't forget that Tottenham were also facing a multi-front battle at the time, and the situation was not much easier than these two teams. Therefore, Tottenham Hotspur, managed by George, has naturally attracted the attention and attention of many wealthy clubs!
It can be said that at this time, almost all the club representatives classified in the first tier are praying secretly in their hearts, hoping that their character can be strong and never get the Tottenham goal hidden in the fourth tier. The team’s “super jackpot”!
