The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1335
1335 Give Young Players More Chances
Sure enough, the next day there was a post-match interview with Alex Ferguson in the media.
Questions about Cristiano Ronaldo and Franck Ribery were widely circulated, especially about Alex Ferguson’s final comments on Cristiano Ronaldo and Franck Ribery, which were well known throughout the world.
Alex Ferguson instantly attracted a lot of criticism. Cristiano Ronaldo’s fans naturally attacked Alex Ferguson crazily, and even cursed him a lot.
And there are some coaches and football stars who support Cristiano Ronaldo, who they don’t think is what Alex Ferguson said. Alex Ferguson is a little biased, too biased in favour of his players.
Of course, there was also a lot of support for Alex Ferguson. They were supporters of Alex Ferguson, and they lashed out at Cristiano Ronaldo with no quality at all.
Anyway, Alex Ferguson was Cristiano Ronaldo’s former head coach. He knew Cristiano Ronaldo very well, and what he said was well founded, and when the truth was said, you thought it was unpleasant to hear, and cursed it?
Yes, they complain about Alex Ferguson and even claim that the world is problematic and sick.
Mentor, apparently Alex Ferguson is mentor. What’s wrong with him pointing out the problem for Cristiano Ronaldo? To be criticized and attacked by so many people was truly too much, making them too confused.
Of course, Franck Ribery was also having a hard time and was also attacked by Cristiano Ronaldo. Naturally, it was also attacked by a lot of media. A lot of people claim that Franck Ribery doesn’t even deserve to carry Cristiano Ronaldo’s shoes …
Franck Ribery, this is a lying gun. What does it have to do with him? He didn’t say anything?
Still, Franck Ribery fans are backing Franck Ribery and Alex Ferguson, attacking Cristiano Ronaldo.
These people were all clamoring wildly. But Cristiano Ronaldo, Alex Ferguson and Franck Ribery, who were at the center of the storm, were silent. They did not give interviews to anyone, nor did they respond to this question, as if this matter did not exist.
Cristiano Ronaldo has already gone away with his teammates to challenge Fulham.
It was the FA Cup quarter-final away to Fulham this season.
It was a winning game, but if there was a draw, there would be no overtime or penalty kicks. Instead, it would be replayed on a different day. However, in this situation, Zhong Cheng naturally hoped that he would be able to settle it in one match. One more match would drag down the Leeds United team.
Therefore, the goal that Zhong Cheng set for the Leeds United players was to solve the problem in a game.
Of course, Zhong Cheng hadn’t put out the strongest lineup for this match.
After all, Leeds United still have a very important game in two days, the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final. In the first leg, Leeds United lost 2-1 to Porto, so this game was crucial.
Leeds United are no ordinary team. Their goal is to win the Champions League. They naturally do not want to be eliminated in this position. More importantly, the Porto team was not strong. If Leeds United were eliminated by them, it would really be a tragic matter.
At this time, Zhong Cheng reminded the main players of Leeds United to rest and wait for the game against Porto. This was a life-and-death battle, so they had to prepare well.
Therefore, the main players of Leeds United were all preparing to play against Porto. Many of the main players did not come to the away game, but stayed at Leeds to prepare.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo was brought by Zhong Cheng. He was really afraid that something big would happen to Cristiano Ronaldo these days.
After all, there are a lot of media reporters looking for Cristiano Ronaldo, hoping that Cristiano Ronaldo can be interviewed and respond positively to Alex Ferguson’s words.
Zhong Cheng did not want Cristiano Ronaldo to be affected by these things, nor did he want Leeds United to be involved in this storm.
Perhaps when Alex Ferguson said those words, he had already dug a hole for Leeds United.
Yes, Leeds United are doing so well in the Premier League now. If they can make Leeds United mess up, won’t they have a chance in the next game?
Therefore, Zhong Cheng suspected that dragging Leeds United into the water was the intention of Alex Ferguson. Otherwise, how could Alex Ferguson, an old fogey, come up with this?
Old foxes like Alex Ferguson do everything with meaning.
Zhong Cheng had learned a lot from an old fox like Alex Ferguson, and it was very practical.
However, now was not the time to deal with these matters. What Zhong Cheng is in a hurry to resolve is the match against Fulham, this year’s FA Cup quarter-final.
To be honest, Zhong Cheng is greedy and wants to win the FA Cup. Therefore, Zhong Cheng’s goal in this match was naturally victory.
Now, the young players of Leeds United were all holding back their energy, preparing to display themselves in front of Zhong Cheng, so that they could obtain more opportunities.
After all, Leeds United was a young team, and Zhong Cheng was a head coach who was very happy to promote young players. If they showed more, their chances would be even greater. It was impossible to say that they would become the main force of the team, so these people had put in all their energy.
Of course, the most important task now was to complete Zhong Cheng’s arrangements and win this match.
This match was very crucial. If anyone performed very well in this match, it would definitely enter Zhong Cheng’s eyes and obtain more opportunities in the future.
The young players of Leeds United were all ready to go all out.
Zhong Cheng saw through the thoughts of the Leeds United youngsters and was naturally happy to do so. He was hoping that Leeds United’s players would be in better shape to face this game, and Leeds United needed to win.
In this match, Zhong Cheng had drawn up such a starting line-up, which was as follows:
Goalkeeper: Simon Mignolet
Fourth Guards “Left to Right”: Danny Ross, Leonardo Bonucci, Matts Hummels and Kyle Walker
Single waist: Paul Pogba
Three avant-garde “left to right”: Eden Azar, Tony Clos and Marco Reus
Twin strikers: Lukaku and Vardy
This was the starting line-up for Leeds United today. From this, it could be seen how many major players Leeds United had hid in this match. Moreover, many of the main players did not come to the game away, they were all at Leeds Bourne, waiting for the game against Porto in midweek.
Cristiano Ronaldo was the biggest player on the bench for Leeds United. However, Cristiano Ronaldo has learned today that no matter what the situation is, he will not be in the game today. He is coming to town.
There were a lot of young players on the bench, among them John Stones, who was famous in 1994. He was 15 years old now, and he was only 16 in two months.
It was quite young, and it was very eye catching in the youth team. Now there are some teams that want to loan John Stones. There were even those who wanted to rent Zhong Cheng’s younger brother, Zhong Yan, who was no less famous than John Stones.
In fact, Zhong Yan was much more famous than John Stones. Many clubs want to rent Zhong Yan, although Zhong Yan is smaller than Stones, but not much smaller.
Zhong Yan’s body really inherited his father and brother’s physical fitness. He was really very strong. Now, he was much taller than his peers. Now, he was in a leapfrog competition.
It could even be said that John Stones was his junior.
Right now, both of them were working for the same level of the youth team. They were about to enter the reserve team. They were really young geniuses.
However, Zhong Yan did not sit on the bench today. After all, he was still relatively young.
However, the coaches of the Leeds United Youth Team and the Reserves had informed Zhong Cheng that they hoped that Zhong Cheng could bring Zhong Yan to such a competition to train. It seemed that Zhong Yan could no longer improve in the Youth Team. He was obviously much higher than his peers, and even better than players one or two years older than him.
A lot of the media have made a lot of reports about Zhong Yan, claiming that Zhong Yan is a super genius, just like his brother Zhong Zheng. But Zhong Zheng is a goalkeeper and Zhong Yan is a striker.
Nowadays, many people use the term “one sect, three heroes” to describe Zhong Cheng brothers. Perhaps because Zhong Yan was a disciple of the Zhong family, Zhong Cheng did not let Zhong Yan come to the substitute seat.
If Zhong Yan wasn’t from the Zhong family, perhaps Zhong Cheng would give him a chance to appear on the bench.
Zhong Cheng also attached great importance to Zhong Yan. Naturally, his requirements for Zhong Yan were much higher than others’. Therefore, Zhong Yan still stayed in the youth team.
Many coaches had reacted to Zhong Cheng. This was unfair to Zhong Yan. Zhong Cheng should give him more chances.
Zhong Cheng had heard this many times, but he still hadn’t brought Zhong Yan away.
Zhong Cheng’s gaze was now focused on the stadium, not on Zhong Yan.
At the beginning of the game, Leeds United took the initiative. The young players of Leeds United played very well and were very active. Fulham, on the other hand, defended their counterattack, hoping to deliver a fatal blow to Leeds United.
The young players of Leeds United were doing very well and attacking ferociously. Even the adult players of Fulham felt the pressure. This was really a group of geniuses. The game was very organized.
However, Fulham’s defence was also very good and they did not give Leeds United much of a chance.
In the end, the two sides were tied 0-0 in this match.
