Deep-seated arrogance stabbed Liverpool fans the most. In terms of club results, Liverpool have been more successful than Manchester United, since Scotland joined Bill. After Shankly became Liverpool's manager in 1959, the club continued to shine in the next 30 years, winning the European Champions Cup four times in the late seventies and early eighties, becoming the second "king of Europe" after Real Madrid in the late fifties. ”

But even in the era of Liverpool's sweep, Liverpool felt that United had taken too much attention, even when they were relegated to the second division in the early seventies. At that time, the "king of Europe" felt that he did not enjoy the highest esteem, and that Manchester United were always overly favored children. Liverpool's pride in Manchester United is inevitably hated by jealousy, and Manchester United's excessive commercialization has made Liverpool, who still maintain the traditional management model, shameful, and Manchester United also has no good feelings for this disgruntled eastern neighbor.

As both clubs are among the most successful clubs in the history of English football, and both reached their peak after the Second World War, the league and cup titles over the years have been waged in the competition between the two teams, deepening the derby relationship between the North West of England, and the ensuing personal feuds are inevitable, most notably the hatred between the two Scottish players in recent years, Liverpool king Dalglish and Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson.

Dalglish joined Liverpool in 1976 before playing for Celtic, where he died as a Bishop. Ferguson was a Rangers centre-forward and a Protestant as a young man. Religious conflict makes it impossible for the two to become friends. Ferguson was an assistant to Scottish coach Stan before he became boss of Old Trafford in 1986, when Dalglish was Scotland's number one star, but neither of them spoke.

After 1986, Ferguson's biggest challenge was how to break Liverpool's monopoly on English football, and Dalglish had just taken over the reins from Fagan.

Ferguson won the first league title after seven years of struggle at Manchester United, while Dalglish pressed Ferguson when he was in charge of Liverpool, and later coached Blackburn Rover, and took away the Premier League title from Ferguson. Ferguson famously said in his autobiography: "When you die and go to the funeral, you only need four friends to carry your coffin." This sentence is the cynical rebuke of the old coach when Dalglish became a TV commentator and instigated the media to besiege Ferguson.

The derbies between cities are also Manchester and London, Newcastle and Sunderland, Portsmouth and Southampton, but they pale in comparison to the close neighbours of Manchester and Liverpool. Manchester and London, mainly because of the confrontation between the unpretentious industrial city and the glitzy capital, and the rest because of the rivalry between the neighbors. But it is precisely because of the derby between these cities that the connotation of professional football is enriched, and the most direct effect is that this derby always attracts thousands of fans to snap up derby tickets, and a derby victory against an old enemy is the pride of the city.

In 2003, Liverpool was selected as the next "European Capital of Culture", which should have been a great event for the rejuvenation of the ancient port, but in the first two years of this selection, Liverpool lost 0-4 to Manchester United in the league, so the mayor of Liverpool said sourly: "Due to the ignorance of the referee, we have lost a main course to celebrate the European cultural capital." Four minutes into the game, the referee sent off Liverpool centre-back Hyypia, and the Reds were defeated.

In the late autumn of 2003, the Reds won again against Liverpool, again at Liverpool's home stadium, with the score 3-1. In that game, Liverpool lost without temper and the whole game was under the control of Manchester United. Liverpool's midfield was completely suppressed by the Manchester United midfield led by Ronaldinho, and the goal scored by Liverpool was a consolation goal scored by the United players when they were absent-minded near the end of the game.

Now that the derby is coming again, Liverpool shouted the slogan of revenge half a month ago. They have a reason to do so. But it is enough to be bitter enemies, not to mention that United will win the league title if they win this game. There's nothing more unbearable than being stepped on by a sworn enemy stepping on the stage of a champion.

Although Manchester United's title this season is almost a foregone conclusion, even if they beat Manchester United, the Reds are still seven points clear of second-placed Arsenal. With only three games left in the league, the seven-point gap is almost completely insurmountable. However, Liverpool will still give it their all, even if it is just to delay the time for Manchester United to win the title, they will be very happy.

The war of words between the two sides began half a month ago, but, just like the current gap between the two sides in the standings, Liverpool lost to Manchester United and Houllier lost to Ferguson. In the current Premier League team, playing psychological warfare and war of words, Ferguson is still invincible.

The war of words between the two sides only allowed Liverpool to be sprinkled with a few handfuls of salt on their wounds again.

However, before the start of the game, there was some trouble on both sides, not because of the hostile relationship between the two sides, but because of the matter within the respective teams of both sides, that is, the top strikers of both sides were making transfers.

Liverpool's number one shè Owen suffered a serious injury early in the season, which left him out for a number of games. In addition, Irving's contract is about to expire for one season, and Irving is renewing his contract with the team, but the opinions of the two sides on the contract are very different, and various media newspapers are all news that Irving will transfer away after the end of the season.

Manchester United have the same problem.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is undoubtedly United's number one star since David Beckham's departure. In the games that have been played this season, Ruud van Nistelrooy has made a total of 40 appearances in four schedules, scoring a terrifying 42 goals, including 29 in the league, 11 in the Champions League, and one each in the League Cup and FA Cup. Unsurprisingly, he will win the Golden Boot in both the Premier League and Champions League.

Ruud van Nistelrooy's contract with Manchester United expires with two seasons remaining and now is the time to renew his contract. However, there is a huge difference between Ruud van Nistelrooy's personal request and the treatment given by the team, Ruud van Nistelrooy asked for a contract with an annual salary of 7.5 million pounds, but Manchester United only gave him a contract with a weekly salary of 90,000 pounds, that is, a contract with an annual salary of about 4.8 million pounds, which is already a fixed salary within the Manchester United team, the same as the captain Keane.

Vanney was very dissatisfied with this, so the renewal of the contract between the two parties was temporarily put on hold.

The reason why Ruud van Nistelrooy is so demanding is because he has been greatly tempted by the outside world, with Roman Abramovich's Chelsea and Florentino's Real Madrid all seducing Ruud vanney. Chelsea attracted Ruud van Nistelrooy with money, with Abei offering him a £180,000-a-week super contract, while Real Madrid attracted Ruud van Nistelrooy with reputation. Despite the great success of Manchester United since the inception of the Premier League, Real Madrid are still widely regarded as the number one club, and they are the most successful team of the 20th century.

Of course, the reason why Manchester United refused to give in was not only that Ruud van Nistelrooy was asking for too much treatment, but also because Manchester United was also greatly tempted by Chelsea and Real Madrid.

Not long ago, Beckham and Ronaldo expressed their appreciation for Ruud van Nistelrooy on behalf of Real Madrid president Florentino, and there were rumours that Real Madrid were planning to bring Dutch shè hands to the Bernabeu for 50 million pounds.

Meanwhile, Premier League upstart Chelsea have also joined the race for the Netherlands. They made an offer of up to £60 million! If the Netherlands are willing to leave Old Trafford, Abu's offer could even be raised to £100 million!

With this outside temptation, combined with the ferocity of several other strikers and midfield attackers in the United squad, Ferguson and the United management believe that Ruud van Nistelrooy is not indispensable.

In the Manchester United team, although Ruud van Nistelrooy is the number one shè, in 30 league appearances, scoring 29 goals, an average of nearly one goal per game, but because Manchester United's firepower is too ferocious, in the 34 rounds of the league that have been played, they have scored exactly 100 goals! Ruud van Nistelrooy accounted for less than 30 per cent of the total goals. Among them, the six strikers other than Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie, Villa and Torres have all scored at least seven goals, and the midfielders Scholes, Guggs, Ronaldinho and Cristiano. Ronaldo has also scored at least seven goals.

In such a situation, even if Ruud van Nistelrooy leaves, Manchester United's attacking firepower is still shocking.

In addition, Vanney is now twenty-eight years old, and it is time to be able to afford to sell it. Once the contract is renewed once, by the time the contract expires, Vanney will likely be over 30 years old, and he will not be able to sell for the price.

Of course, if Ruud van Nistelrooy is willing to live at Manchester United for the rest of his life, there is no problem. However, Ruud van Nistelrooy has never made any statements that he is willing to live with Manchester United for the rest of his life, which has kept the Manchester United management suspicious.

Of course, that's what Ferguson told Jiang Feng that he hasn't spoken directly with Ruud van Nistelrooy, which is one of the main reasons he came to Manchester this time. Ruud van Nistelrooy is a player that Jiang Feng admires very much, and emotionally speaking, he doesn't want Ruud van Nistelrooy to leave.

Although Jiang Feng doesn't care about Vanney's salary, he doesn't want to upset the team's salary balance because of Vanney. He has money, but he doesn't want to keep pouring money into Manchester United, but wants Manchester United to stay financially healthy and at least be self-financed, and Manchester United already have the ability to be self-financed.
