Chapter 215 The Eve of the War

On the eve of the battle between Manchester United and Arsenal, the entire Manchester United team still stayed at the Laurie Hotel as usual.

Because at noon today, Chelsea slaughtered Wolves 5:0 away, which made the Blues temporarily beat Arsenal with an unbeaten record of 4 wins and 2 draws, topped the Premier League standings, and Manchester United temporarily fell into the league.

The third position.

Although the Premier League has only reached the sixth round and has not finished the entire season, Ferguson still feels tremendous pressure from the good form shown by Arsenal and Chelsea.

The old man knows very well that this season, Manchester United will face difficult challenges if they want to defend the league championship!

And Manchester United will not be able to lose money tomorrow's home game against Arsenal.

After rushing the players to their rooms to rest and warning everyone that they are strictly prohibited from going out, Ferguson called a meeting of the coaching staff. The central topic of the meeting is naturally the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Aston Villa tomorrow.

Contest.

"Everyone can speak freely, how should we play in this game? How will Arsenal play?"

"There's nothing to say." Mike Ferran said indifferently, "I've studied it so many times, and I'm even more familiar with my wife."

"Do you want me to drive you out?" The Ferguson hair dryer immediately roared and started.

Mike Ferran was startled and shut up quickly.

……………………

When the coaches were having a meeting, the players were chatting and fucking bored.

Although Ferguson had already rushed the players to the hotel room before the meeting, it was still early and no one could sleep.

Some people visited each other, but no one dared to sneak out of the hotel to mess around. Even a prodigal son like Giggs stayed obediently in the hotel.

Ronaldo sat on his bed and asked Yin Jun: "Boss Yin Jun, you explain that in the game tomorrow, can I start?"

"No." Yin Jun deliberately teased him, "You are too poor."

"Why?" Ronaldo said, "I was the best player in the last league."

Scholes, who had just entered the door, heard it and said with a smile: "What's the use of the best game? Look at Yin and I, I'm so weak in the best game."

Facing the two bigwigs of the team, Ronaldo felt that he had nothing to say.

Scholes continued to attack Ronaldo and said: "In our game with Arsenal, the boss will definitely line up the strongest lineup. If nothing unexpected happens, Roy and I will be in the middle, and Yin and Ryan will definitely be on the left and right sides, and Rude will definitely be in the front.

It will occupy one position, and another position is likely to be produced between Outlet and Diego. Where can you have the chance to start?"

"I don't want to live anymore..." Ronaldo shouted with his face covering, pretending to look through his fingers. Scholes and Yin Jun discovered it, and he was also very happy to laugh.

No one took it seriously. This guy is a noisy guy with a good temper. These big brothers on the team like this guy very much.

……………………

After the tactical analysis meeting, Ferguson started a battle with Wenger at the pre-match press conference the next morning.

"Wenger will realize that he is far worse than me," Ferguson said, stretching out eight fingers.

He intentionally stimulated Wenger, mainly because he won 8 Premier League championships, but Wenger only had 2.

"Yes, I'm 8 years younger than him," Wenger said.

Ferguson felt that this guy was sarcastic about him as an old bone, and immediately replied: "Some young people should respect their seniors."

Wenger: "Hello, senior, don't cry if you lose."

The media and fans were very excited, and the battle of words between Ferguson and Wenger was enjoyed by them.

Ferguson and Wenger were quarreling fiercely, and the players on both sides were also tit-for-tat. Especially Arsenal's top star Henry, who even burned the referee.

The Arsenal's leading scorer was surprised that referee Lirey alone awarded Manchester United six penalty kicks at Old Trafford last season. He said: "I'm not complaining that Manchester United got too many penalty kicks, but

If such a thing happened in Highbury, people would be surprised and pay attention. Referees are also humans and make mistakes, but they should not be treated differently in the judgment. Piret was once overwhelmed by criticism.

, but some people who did the same thing easily escaped."

There is something in this argument before the game that Henry clearly said.

……………………

"I'm now outside Old Trafford Stadium, three hours before the start of the game, and there are already a large number of fans away from the scene." A reporter from Sky TV's front office was conducting an on-site interview outside Old Trafford Stadium.

"John, interview the fans on the scene." The director ordered in the background.

"Received." The reporter from the front agreed and came to a group of Manchester United fans with the microphone.

"Hello--"

"Manchester United will win!"

"Fuck Arsenal to death!"

“3:0!”

...

Before the reporter finished speaking, Manchester United fans shouted excitedly, and several people were obviously drunk.

In the middle of the week, Arsenal just lost 0:3 to Inter Milan in the Champions League, and Arsenal also lost 0:3 at Old Trafford last season.

"Okay, we've all seen it, Manchester United fans are in high spirits." The reporter from the front shouted.

Soon, he led the photography team to find another group of Arsenal fans.

"Hello you guys--"

"Fuck Manchester United guys to death!"

"Run! Kill Manchester United!"

...

The reporter shrugged: "It can be seen that the morale of Arsenal fans is also very high."

……………………

An hour and a half later, in the live broadcast signal, the buses of Arsenal and Manchester United drove away from the hotel respectively. Fans continued to drive along the way, and the scene was spectacular.

Manchester United is the host. Their hotel is very good and closer to the stadium. They arrived at Old Trafford Stadium in advance, which aroused huge cheers from Manchester United fans on the scene.

The players got off the car one by one, and everyone's expressions were very serious and no one accepted media interviews.

Ferguson was surrounded by reporters, and the old man snorted, and the reporters were in a stir, and some even took two steps back. There was no way, this was the deterrent power of the old Lord.

"Jazz, can you talk about your predictions for this game?" a reporter who was familiar with Ferguson shouted.

"Victory! Our goal remains the same!" the old man said with a finger up, then strode away.

This is the Godfather's style.

About ten minutes later, the Arsenal bus arrived. The players got off one after another and quickly passed the mixed interview area under the organization of the assistant coach, and did not accept any interviews.

"Arsena!"

"Mr. Wenger, let's say a few words."

"See you in ninety minutes!" Wenger stopped and said, then left straight.
