The Strongest Demon Front

boom!

boom!

Soccer balls fly in the air.

Manchester United players were divided into several groups, running on the training ground.

"B—"

With a whistle, everyone stopped, and the football bounced and rolled to the sidelines.

One of them bounced into the air, just in time to go straight to Chuge.

high speed.

"Why!"

When Rashford saw this, he was about to remind Chu Ge, when he saw Chu Ge walking, inadvertently tilting his head slightly, and the football immediately flew past the tip of his hair. Chu Ge immediately straightened his chest and continued to walk forward.

"You can even dodge the ball so handsomely!"

Rashford sighed, and hurried to Chu Ge's side in two or three steps.

"Chu." He greeted Chu Ge, "The coach should be announcing the starting lineup for the match against Manchester City."

Looking at the bald coach Mike Phelan who summoned the players, Rashford guessed.

He was a little excited.

Recently, with Ibrahimovic's injury, the number and time of Master La's appearances have increased.

Although Ibrahimovic's injury is something I don't want to see, Rashford is still very happy to get more playing time.

Especially the next derby battle with Manchester City.

Everyone is eager to play in the derby, and Rashford is no exception.

"Maybe." Chu Ge glanced at Fei Lan.

Perhaps because he noticed Chu Ge's gaze, Fei Lan looked at Chu Ge friendly and nodded at him with a smile.

"I don't know if I will be in the starting list this time." Rashford was a little worried.

"Continue to train hard, the coach will see your hard work, so that you will have more opportunities to compete." Chu Ge smiled and patted Rashford's head.

Rashford nodded.

While talking, the two walked to the sidelines. Seeing Chu Ge's arrival, the teammates stepped aside one after another, allowing Chu Ge to walk smoothly all the way to the middle.

Seeing this scene, Ferguson nodded.

Ferguson stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, looking at the training ground. Nowadays, in Manchester United's training, he is no longer doing it himself in many cases. Most of the tedious and meticulous work is handed over to members of the coaching staff such as Mike Phelan or Giggs.

"It seems that he has been recognized by the players." Looking at Chu Ge standing in the C position, Ferguson smiled gratifiedly.

In the last game, Chu Ge wore the Manchester United captain's armband. In that game, Chu Ge handed in a wonderful performance of three goals and one assist. In the absence of Ibrahimovic, the single core led Manchester United to a wonderful victory.

This kind of performance has allowed his reputation in the team to continue to improve.

"Papa papa."

After seeing the players gather, Mike Phelan clapped his hands.

"It's the derby with Manchester City soon," he said.

"How important this game is, don't I need to say more?" Phelan glanced over the faces of every Manchester United player.

The players nodded one after another, most of them looking serious.

In any city, a derby is always full of topics, and the intense, exciting, and tense emotions spread quickly before the game even starts.

The same is true for the Manchester derby between Manchester United and Manchester City.

Although it does not have a long history and rich heritage like Liverpool's double red derby, with the entry of the chiefs, Manchester City's performance is getting better and better, there are more and more star players, and its influence in this city is also growing. Especially the championship after reversing Manchester United, which greatly increased their popularity.

With the joining of Guardiola this season, Manchester City is not only the star of Manchester City, but also the focus of the entire world football.

Against this background, the Manchester derby has naturally received more attention than ever.

In the first round of the derby, Manchester United lost at home.

If they lose again in this derby, it will be Manchester City's "double kill" against them this season.

That's every Manchester United player,

And his fans are hard to accept.

That would be a huge shame.

and.

Most importantly.

This game against Manchester City is a make-up match in the twenty-sixth round of the league.

At that time, in order to make way for the League Cup final, the FA postponed the Manchester derby originally scheduled for the end of February for almost two months.

This means that when Manchester United and Manchester City have a derby match, no other team in the league has any game tasks.

All fans will only pay attention to this game.

The attention of this game will be huge.

Not only fans of Manchester United and Manchester City are paying attention to this game, but fans of Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal will also be paying close attention to this game.

If Manchester City wins, their battle for the top four of the Premier League with Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal will enter a fierce battle.

And if Manchester United wins, then Chelsea fans will be extremely frustrated.

Manchester United and Chelsea's league points are only two points.

If Manchester United wins the derby, they will surpass Chelsea by one point and become the new leader of the league!

A derby battle, but also the core battle of the league championship and the fourth place!

The importance of this game is self-evident!

That's why the Manchester United players look serious.

They are well aware of the importance of this game.

All players do not want to be defeated by Manchester City twice in one season, and everyone is looking forward to defeating their opponents, reversing Chelsea, and making the team the number one team in the league.

The more thoughts, the greater the pressure.

Even experienced players, when such a critical game is approaching, they will inevitably feel some emotional fluctuations. Some nervous.

Even if Ferguson was standing in the office, he could see the expressions on the faces of all the players.

in the crowd.

Chu Ge looked calm and calm.

He doesn't look the same as many of his teammates.

"This is the quality of a champion player. This is the winning temperament that you will have after you get used to winning and winning various championships."

Seeing Chu Ge's expression, Ferguson was not surprised.

Chu Ge's expression was very common in Ferguson's last coaching cycle.

At that time, Manchester United was a team of honor and habit of winning. Most of the players on the team are champion players, and no game will make them feel anxious and uneasy.

After Ferguson left, this kind of game temperament gradually faded from the Manchester United players and disappeared.

"If the current players want to regain the winning temperament of the past, they need one victory after another, especially the victory of important games. And, the championship."

"Hopefully, in my lifetime, that temperament can come back to each of our Manchester United players."

Looking at the Manchester United players with different expressions on the training ground, coach Ferguson looked a little dignified.

...

"To bring you together is to announce the roster for the match against Manchester City. I hope that every player who is selected for the squad can seriously prepare for the game, show their best form in the game, and help the team win this important game. the match of."

Ferran looked at the players and said with a serious face.

"But." As he spoke, a smile appeared on the bald coach's face.

"Before we announce the list, we still have one very important thing to do." After finishing speaking, Ferran looked at Chu Ge.

Following the coach's gaze, all Manchester United players were looking at Chu Ge.

"Um?"

Chu Ge was a little surprised.

He didn't quite understand why the coach suddenly looked at him. He looked at the coach with some doubts.

"Happy birthday to you, Chu."

Ferran smiled.

Well.

Chu Ge suddenly realized.

During this period of time, there have been a lot of things for the team. In addition to preparing for the game, Chu Ge is also busy with calculations and planning his special free kick training all day long.

For a moment, he forgot his birthday.

"Thank you for your contribution to the team, happy birthday, Chu!"

Rooney was the first to react.

He laughed and hugged Chu Ge heavily.

"Happy birthday!"

"Happy birthday!"

Teammates came over one after another to congratulate Chu Ge.

Everyone's face is full of smiles.

The originally tense atmosphere due to the competition was swept away at this moment. Everyone offered birthday wishes to Chu Ge.

The atmosphere is very warm.

This is Chu Ge's first birthday at Manchester United.

After this birthday, he will be nineteen years old.

"thank you all."

Chu Ge smiled and thanked his teammates.

Ferguson put his waist down and watched this scene with a smile. Such a harmonious atmosphere was exactly what he wanted to see.

"There is one more thing I want to announce."

Phelan clapped his hands with a smile on his face.

"I announce that for the game against Manchester City, Chu will continue to serve as the captain of the team. Do you have any opinions?" The coach looked at his players.

The Manchester United players were a little surprised.

They glanced at each other.

It was a coincidence that Chu Ge served as the captain in the last game. It was even more surprising that he was the captain for two consecutive games.

"No opinion!" Rooney was the first to stand up and support.

"See Captain." He laughed and saluted Chu Ge.

"See Captain!"

"Hahaha!"

The players booed one after another.
