Super Prophecy Master

Chapter 406 Mr. Smiling Jazz

Old Trafford.

Manchester United's match against Millwall has gone to the No.805 minute of the game, and the score displayed on the scoreboard is still 0 to 1. Millwall, who is playing away, relies on Josh Simpson's goal in the first half. Continue to maintain the lead.

At this point in the game, many people can see that Manchester United's striker is weak.

In the previous ten rounds of the league, Manchester United has not shown a problem with the striker, perhaps because of the overall offensive ability, which has covered up the lack of striker strength and made many people ignore the problem of the striker.

Now facing Millwall, Manchester United's striker problem is clearly on the surface.

Many Manchester United people feel chilling.

It's just a league game against Millwall, and it's acceptable to lose. Three points are not absolute, and Manchester United still have a chance to recover, but the game may have a huge impact.

After this game, all Premier League teams will know about Manchester United's striker problems.

Those ordinary small clubs are nothing. The weakness of Manchester United's striker is also relative. It is still easy to beat weak teams, and it is difficult for them to do anything against them. They are like teams of equal strength, such as Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, etc. Knowing the situation of Manchester United's striker, the team will definitely be able to defend more easily. Just referring to Millwall's model is already quite threatening.

What will Manchester United do then?
The thought worried many United supporters, and the imminent loss seemed to be nothing.

Many people are also faintly dissatisfied with the club's decision to sell Van Nistelrooy. If Van Nistelrooy hadn't left for Real Madrid, Manchester United would not have reached the point where the striker was weak. With Van Nistelrooy's striker line, it would not lose to any other team. , and now without Van Nistelrooy, Rooney can't pick it up alone, and the striker is a big problem.

Fortunately, Manchester United still has C-Ronaldo!

Many people feel lucky.

Before the end of the league last season, C-Ronaldo was revealed to have conflicts with Wayne Rooney. Under the exaggeration of the media, it seemed that he could not get along in the Premier League. There were many media rumors that C-Ronaldo might leave Manchester United and go to other leagues to find his next team. A club, but in the end C-Ronaldo stayed at Manchester United, and the club gave him a blockbuster new contract.

Now C-Ronaldo almost alone supports Manchester United's frontcourt offense. Every game shines in the audience, which also comforts Manchester United supporters.

That's all.

No matter how good C-Ronaldo is, he is just a player. He wants to use the last time to save Manchester United from failure, which is naturally impossible.

In the last time, Manchester United started a crazy offensive mode, but they still failed to break through the Millwall gate.

When the game ended, the score remained at 0 to 1. Millwall defeated Manchester United away and won the No. 11 round of the league.

The game is over.

The Manchester United players all bowed their heads and left the field in a dull mood. They could not accept the fact that they lost the game, especially when they saw Millwall's bench and Braniff's haughty face, the Manchester United players gritted their teeth with hatred Speaking, the head coach Ferguson also stood up, looked at the players leaving one by one, recalled the whole game, and once again made up his mind to improve the striker.

This is no small decision.

Ferguson has the club's transfer power, but the club's finances are not in his hands. After the Glazer family acquired Manchester United, the club's finances have been in a scarred state. They need to work hard to pay off the high loan.

This is also the reason why Manchester United only bought one Carrick in the summer transfer.

Carrick is an expensive player, and the average club does not have that much money to buy such a heavyweight star, but you must know that Manchester United also sold Van Nistelrooy at the same time, coupled with the departure of some youth team players, Manchester United's transfer The net expenditure of the club is less than 500 million euros. Compared with Manchester United's transfer strategy in the past, the investment of several million euros is definitely pitiful.

Now Manchester United's finances are still not very good, and if they want to improve their striker, they must buy a strong star, and the estimated minimum cost is more than ten million euros.

A striker with tens of millions of euros?
Stars with similar worths flashed through his mind. In the end, Ferguson shook his head. The introduction of players in the winter transfer has a lot of luck. The number of strikers worth tens of millions of euros is very limited. In the middle of the season, we will put forwards who perform well in the transfer market, so what we can buy will only be stars who perform poorly. If a player does not perform well in the original team, how likely is it that he will be in Manchester United? What about outstanding performance?

Ferguson stood up and was about to leave. When he turned around, he happened to see Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang walked to the player's tunnel, facing the center of the court, and smiled at Ferguson. It seemed to be a friendly smile to others, but in Ferguson's view, it definitely meant adding insult to injury.

Ferguson gritted his teeth with hatred, and walked over with a cold snort. When he got closer, Mr. Jazz changed his attitude. With a warm smile on his face, he shook hands with Zhang Yang and said, "Your performance is really good. Brilliant, unexpected. I didn't expect it at all!"

Mr. Jazz lamented Millwall's excellence, which made Zhang Yang a little confused.

Will the old man praise Millwall?
impossible!

"There must be fraud!" Zhang Yang thought in his heart, his face was expressionless, but he responded by praising Manchester United, "Manchester United is also very good, especially on the right, Ronaldo, he will definitely become a world superstar in the future."

Ferguson didn't seem to want to talk more about C-Ronaldo, but jumped directly to the Millwall lineup, "Your two strikers are very good. Vardy, Bent, as far as I know, they can say He dominated the league's top scorer list. But I found that Vardy is not worse than Bent at all, and I also found that your normal tactics only send one striker to play. Are you planning to use Bent as the main force, or Vardy?"

Zhang Yang heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

He felt that the old man had a bad temper, he would not be kind enough to praise Millwall, and he talked to himself so kindly, he really had no good intentions!
Zhang Yang said with a smile, "They are all the main players. We are fighting on three fronts, the league, the Champions League, plus the cup. In January, there will be the FA Cup. Neither of them will lack opportunities to play."

"It won't be so by next season," Ferguson said. "Of course, I'm not talking about your results. Any player will fight for the main position. By next season, I believe Vardy will become more mature. He must not be reconciled to the main position. .”

"It's like Manchester United, why are we selling Van Nistelrooy? Because Wayne has grown up and there are other fantastic youngsters in the squad. You haven't had this problem in too short a time. But I think Soon, you should think about it earlier."

Zhang Yang twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling that the old man in front of him seemed to be deceiving himself as a child, but he didn't intend to continue talking, but turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence, "Maybe."

"But even if we want to sell a player, like Manchester United, we will not sell to a competitor!"

When Zhang Yang was talking, he had already taken two steps, but suddenly stopped and said with a smile, "Of course, an exchange is another matter. When Manchester United considers selling Ronaldo to Millwall, I will also consider it. Manchester United do some transfer cooperation."

"..."

Looking at the back of leaving, Ferguson stood alone on the grass, the muscles at the corners of his mouth were pulled, the smile on his face turned serious and annoyed, he knew he was being played by the other party.

----

At the post-match press conference, Ferguson refused to attend on the grounds that he was unwell.

The media reporters all knew that Ferguson was in a bad mood. Manchester United lost the pre-match war of words and also lost the home game, and the weakness of the striker was exposed during the game. It was a triple blow.

Ferguson is probably worrying about the striker problem, right?

With a smile on his face, Zhang Yang talked about the game in an official tone, talked about Millwall's outstanding performance, and praised Manchester United's performance. Just listening to the tone and content, he thought he had a good relationship with Manchester United, but in fact, Everyone knows that the relationship between Zhang Yang and Ferguson is not good, and Millwall and Manchester United are also in the same situation.

Zhang Yang doesn't care about that much.

Even if they are direct competitors with Manchester United, Millwall has already won the game, and they have won big before and after the game. There is no need to add insult to injury and use words to sarcasm. The only result of doing so is to create news for the media The material has no meaning to the team and himself.

After defeating Manchester United, Millwall has secured the top position. The difference between the two teams was only one point before, and now one point has become four points.

Manchester United still ranks second in the league, but already has the same points as Chelsea. The top ranking relies on a goal difference advantage.

Looking at the rankings and points numbers of the top three in the standings, you can also know how fierce the competition for the top of the league is. In such a fierce situation, it is absolutely remarkable that Millwall can stabilize the top position in the standings by defeating Manchester United.

In addition to the top three in the league, the competition from fourth to eighth is much more intense. Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Bolton, and Everton are all in this range. No.4 Arsenal and No. Bolton at .8 is only five points away, while Arsenal are four points away from Manchester United and Chelsea.

From the points list, it can be analyzed that the competition in the league has become much more intense than last season.

This is also similar to what the media expected.

It can be said that Millwall stepped on the corpses of his opponents. Even Manchester United became corpses under their feet. This also made Manchester United supporters feel very uncomfortable, but there is no way. Manchester United defeated at Rafford Stadium. Manchester United lost all games at home. The next match will be at Neal Stadium. It will become more difficult for Manchester United to regain their face.
