'Manchester United won by luck, David's substitution changed everything, and in the last 15 minutes of the first half, I thought United would concede a goal, but I didn't expect Dong to score at a crucial moment and then I was able to continue chasing Chelsea.

'We were lucky to be 1-0 up in the first half, but I was very surprised by another substitution from David in the second half and we won in the end.

Ferguson was very excited at the press conference, Manchester United has not played such a difficult game for a long time, originally he thought that the away game against Aston Villa could easily win the game, but in the middle of the game, Wayne Rooney was sent off, Manchester United had to play 10 to 11, the process is quite difficult......

However, Manchester United was able to win the game, which is already the greatest blessing.

Throughout December, Manchester United won 6 and drew 1, which is exactly the same record as Chelsea, Manchester United have no expectations in the table, and the last two games of this round happen to be Arsenal and Manchester United, but Arsenal still won, and Manchester United are still in third place.

Thirdly, it is really new to Manchester United fans, except for last season. Sitting third in the league table for two seasons in a row, Manchester United fans don't say yes, and neither does Alex Ferguson, but it's a problem if it becomes a habit......

In any case, the second half of 2004 was better than the first half, and the second half of the year, although still not so stable, was at least hopeful?

The whole 2004 schedule is finally over.

New Year's Day, for Dong Fangzhuo, there is no concept, in China, it is the Lunar New Year, the new calendar year, just the concept of a holiday. It's just that abroad, more or less still recalls a lot of things, not to mention, he was reborn, and everyone he cared about would appear in his mind.

Still, he received a nice New Year's gift.

In the vote of Manchester United fans, Dong Fangzhuo was named the best player in the Manchester United team in December, the first time he had won such an accolade, and he had only won the best player of the game before. The last time we came close to winning the honour was in September, but we lost to Ruud van Nistelrooy.

However, half an hour after Manchester United's official website announced the news, Dong Fangzhuo received the news that he was truly happy.

'According to the English Players' Union, the Manchester United striker has been voted Premier League Player of the Month for December.

It was the best for Manchester United and now the best in the Premier League.

Although the news of the Times is very brief, the core content is very strong, Dong Fangzhuo was elected as the best player in the Premier League in December, this honor is rare.

There are many superstars who seem to be the absolute core of the giants to the outside world, and have never won the Premier League Player of the Month.

Patrick Vieira, for example, was part of the unbeaten squad in 2003/04 who helped Arsenal win the league and FA Cup double in 1998 and 2002. In 2003, they added an FA Cup trophy to the team, but it is a shame that such a defensive maestro in the midfield position has never won the Premier League Player of the Month.

Another example is Schmeichel, Manchester United's legendary goalkeeper Schmeichel, who won five Premier League titles under Alex Ferguson, and won the treble with the Red Devils in 1999. Curiously, in his long Premier League career, he has never won the league's Player of the Month award.

Therefore, Dong Fangzhuo's ability to win the best of the month is definitely a great achievement.

What's more, he won it over club team-mates Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes.

On January 2, Dong Fangzhuo received the award in the training ground.

For Dong Fangzhuo's dreamy performance, the fans are full of praise for him, and coach Alex Ferguson did not hesitate to praise him, in an interview, the lord said: "I really like Dong. He's really amazing, thank God for giving him health and fitness, he deserves all the praise and we have to make sure he can keep it up. ”

However, he did not forget to praise other favorite players, compared to the equally good Manchester United midfielder Ryan Giggs, Ferguson also recognized the performance of the Welshman, but he felt that Dong Fangzhuo was better, "Dong and Ryan Giggs are in different positions, there is no doubt that Giggs has been doing well this season, but to be honest, Dong is not bad at all, and it is the case. In addition to these two, there are plenty of players who have been outstanding in the Premier League this season, such as Paul Scholes, Arjen Robben and Didier Drogba. ”

Dong Fangzhuo had never fantasized about this award in his previous life, but now when he holds it in his hand, Dong Fangzhuo feels heavy, although it is hollow in the middle.

And at home, the news media has blown him to the sky.

The Sports Weekly has specially used two pages to report -

the first Asian player to succeed in the Premier League;

The first player to play in the Premier League;

The first player to win the PFA of the Month award;

……

Also, too much.

Looking back on 2004, Dong Fangzhuo only sighed that before his rebirth, he left Antwerp, Belgium, away from the top league, and fought silently in Belgium alone, but after being reborn, he gained too much.

All this, like a dream, but not a dream, appeared in front of him steadily.

At his home in Manchester, he didn't think about setting aside a place in the living room and setting up a Hall of Fame. And with whom is such an honor shared?

Except for his mother who called him after seeing the news for the first time, it was Zhu Ting......

And Cristiano Ronaldo.

This guy is clearly envious and jealous.

Since joining Manchester United in 03, he has not won the Premier League Player of the Month, and Dong Fangzhuo actually took the lead.

"Next month, it will be me." Ronaldo now cares a lot about every honor, and seeing Dong Fangzhuo win the best in the team and the best in the Premier League, his mood is very complicated, which obviously stimulates him.

He scored the game-winning goal for United in the last game and his confidence has been boosted once again.

In the next game away to Middlesbrough, he was re-placed in the starting line-up by Alex Ferguson, who did not dare to be careless and attacked with the main line-up, and he did not disappoint Ferguson, in this game, he really became the best player, with his brace in the game, Manchester United won the game 2-0 on the road.

It's just that the position in the standings has not changed......

And Dong Fangzhuo found that Ronaldo has really changed.

If Ronaldo didn't open his mind until he was 23 years old in his last life, then Ronaldo, who is 19 and a half years old in this life, has already opened his mind three years earlier......

"Dong."

On the training ground, Rooney greeted Dong Fangzhuo unexpectedly.

"Huh?"

Dong Fangzhuo was also surprised that Rooney would take the initiative to greet him.

Wayne Rooney has been depressed lately, his luck has been terrible since missing the penalty, and he is even more depressed now when he was suspended for a red card in the Middlesbrough game......
