321 must still be an opponent
It's actually hard as a manager because you have to think more and take on more than anybody.
But, comparatively speaking, you will get very little!
Winning is a credit to the players, and the stars will always be more prominent and famous than a manager.
If you lose, it must be your mistake, you will always have to take the responsibility for most of the losses, and even the club will blame you for everything, whether you are responsible or not, in short, your fault.
Yang Cheng has understood this truth for a long time, so there is always a clause in his contract with Inter Milan, that is, as long as he feels that he is unhappy with Inter Milan, he has the right to unilaterally terminate the contract without paying Inter Milan compensation.
That's why when all teams poached Yang Cheng, they contacted Caesar directly as soon as possible, without worrying about Inter Milan.
Of course, Yang Cheng is not a ruthless and unrighteous person, he said that as long as he wins another Champions League, he will leave!
In his opinion, two Serie A titles in three years and defending the Champions League are already the greatest rejuvenation he can bring to Inter Milan.
Moratti and Facchetti both came to the Meazza Stadium with mixed feelings, they were eager to see the team win Manchester United, but they also felt that a Champions League and the loss of a Caesar were more important.
It was undoubtedly a difficult decision to make, and Ferguson did them a great favor!
0:0, it was a dull game.
I believe that the next day, the world's major media will publish this news, the Red Devils' ugly away draw with Inter Milan, get the ticket to the Champions League semi-finals!
As for the defending champions, it is another classic example of how attacking football struggles to achieve good results.
Even with the loss of Emerson, Deco, Ronaldo and Batistuta, Inter Milan are still playing the attacking football they do best, and they are still attacking Manchester United.
In the squad, the trident combination of Luca Toney, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Recoba showed Yang Cheng's determination to attack the Manchester United defence, and in the second half, Inter Milan, who had been struggling to score for a long time, was replaced by super substitute Robert Baggio again, and the Italians performed as well as ever.
Barthez is a nerve knife, and when he is doing well, he is almost like a god and will not lose to any goalkeeper in the world, but once he is in a slump, he will make serious mistakes that even a low-level goalkeeper would not make.
Inter Milan's bad luck, in front of the six-sided dice of fate, Barthez drew the best side, he blocked high and low throughout the game, and defused Inter Milan's many must-score goals.
The situation that Yang Cheng is encountering now is like the situation he encountered when he played FM Football Manager in his previous life, all the statistics of the whole game have an absolute advantage, but there is no goal, because the best player in the game is the opponent's goalkeeper.
"It seems that even God doesn't help Caesar!" The on-site commentator sighed helplessly.
lost, Yang Cheng lost the game that was originally in his hands!
Losing 1:2 away to Manchester United, Inter Milan actually had a big advantage, because Yang Cheng believed that Inter Milan's attack at home would definitely be able to break through Manchester United's defense.
But injuries have led to attrition, coupled with Manchester United's tenacious defensive tactics in this game, if you don't know, it must be because it is not Ferguson who sits in front of the Manchester United manager's box, but Capello.
Italy's gold medal coach also put on a solid defensive strategy when he visited the Meaza Stadium not long ago, and in the end, Inter Milan fought to the death with the opponent to get a victory.
What I didn't expect was that Capello planted trees and Ferguson enjoyed the shade.
"You're really good at picking up bargains!" Yang Cheng saw Ferguson coming over and sneered with a smile.
Ferguson has taken a win over Inter Milan and he has every reason to be excited, as he will next face Yang Cheng's apprentice, Bremer's Kaiserslautern.
The Bundesliga Red Devils have been impressive in the Bundesliga, German Cup and Champions League this season, and they are likely to repeat the treble that Yang Cheng set that year. However, compared to Inter Milan led by Yang Cheng, Kaiserslautern is much less threatening.
"The main thing is that you and your team have been distracted lately!" Ferguson smiled with a red face.
Yang Cheng was silent, this was indeed something he didn't expect.
If the manager wants to leave, the players' hearts will inevitably be scattered, which is not felt in the league, but in the more targeted Champions League, Inter Milan's distraction is easy to be caught by the opponent.
Another point is that Yang Cheng has been saying this season, the team's back position is a hidden danger, Zanetti has been tempered and beaten this season, and his performance has become more and more stable, but in the latter period, Pirlo and Deco have been injured successively, plus Emerson, Inter Milan has always been difficult to put together a set of main lineup.
On the contrary, Manchester United, Scholes, Beckham, Giggs, Keane and Veron's 5 midfielders were cleverly integrated by Ferguson, both offensive and defensive, and played very well, if it were not for the poor strength of the backline, Yang Cheng even believed that with Manchester United's midfield, they had a lot to do in this season's Champions League.
"You owe it to Capello, you can't win without him!" Yang Cheng has a hard beak in a dead duck.
He was unconvinced, but had to admit that he had lost.
"Really?" Ferguson chuckled, "Then I'll invite him to drink!" ”
Yang Cheng hated the old guy's smile and couldn't stop shaking his head.
"Let's drink together later, I'm in for a treat!" Ferguson saw that the players were going back and said generously.
"I don't have time!" Yang Cheng turned around and refused!
…………
…………
But in fact, half an hour later, the two of them got together again.
With a clang, the two bottles of red wine collided together, and then they drank upside down.
Ferguson probably hasn't drunk red wine like this in his life, not to mention the violent nature, and he is easy to get drunk, but there is no way, Yang Cheng agreed to drink with him on the condition that he has to follow the drinking method in his hometown.
In Yang Cheng's hometown, no matter how good the wine is, it is not to be tasted, but to be used! The pronunciation of the two words is almost the same, but the way to drink is very different, and if you don't drink to the death, you won't give up, especially when you're in a good mood and in a bad mood.
"It's the same room, but the taste of drinking is much better than the last time!" Ferguson sat on the windowsill with a smile, "I still think that my wine is better!" ”
"Fart!" Yang Cheng scolded, "Your wine is too bad, drink mine next time!" ”
"I'll talk about it when you win!" Ferguson replied.
Yang Cheng raised his head and laughed, this sentence was what he said to Ferguson, but now it has been plagiarized by him.
"Come on, drink again!" Yang Cheng grabbed the wine bottle and threw it over, and the two clanged and bumped into each other again.
After drinking the two bottles of red wine brought by Ferguson, Yang Cheng took out the wine he brought and drank it, he looked in a bad mood, not only because he lost this Champions League top 8, but also because he always had a knot in his heart.
"Still haven't been able to make a decision?" Ferguson asked.
In his opinion, Yang Cheng is good at everything, just one thing is not good, and he values feelings!
The relationship between men and women is like this, and the same is true for the club, for the players.
Yes, such a person is indeed very popular, and he will indeed be loved by countless people, but it is precisely this kind of person who often brings a lot of unnecessary burdens to himself and carries a lot of responsibilities that he should not have carried.
This kind of person often lives a very tired and hard life!
"I want to go, but ......"
Ferguson looked deeply at the young man in front of him, compared to himself, he was too young, but he seemed to have experienced a lot of things, and had a personality that did not match his age.
He didn't know that as a traverser, as Yang Cheng, who has more than ten years of memories than anyone in this world, and has been tempered in the position of head coach for several years, these are all very understandable.
"Recently, the board of directors was ready to renew my contract, but I'm still thinking about it!" Ferguson said lightly.
Yang Cheng turned his head sideways and glanced at the Scotsman, "What is there to consider?" ”
He laughed because he thought it would be a big oddity if Alex Ferguson left Manchester United.
"I've been feeling like I've been out of the Premier League lately, it's too fast, it's too complicated, I've been a little overwhelmed, I've made a lot of mistakes, and if it weren't for it, we wouldn't have lost to that damn Frenchman this season!" ,
Ferguson was talking about Arsene Wenger, and he and Arsene Wenger were always bitter rivals.
Yang Cheng smiled slightly, why wasn't he like this himself?
People, it is always after failure that they reflect on themselves!
This is a good thing, because there is introspection to make progress, and the most terrible thing is the kind of introspection that does not know how to reflect!
'A couple of years ago, they gave me a suggestion to change the position of technical director of the club and bring in someone to take charge of Manchester United, which I didn't have the idea of, but now it's ......'
Ferguson was halfway through his words and did not continue.
Some words cannot be said full, and when they are full, there is no turning back.
Yang Cheng couldn't help laughing, he could hear Ferguson's voiceover, but he couldn't help but ask, "Are you willing?" ”
Ferguson was stunned for a moment and pondered.
The two were silent for a few minutes before the Scots nodded, "Yes, think about it carefully, *** unwilling!" ”
Looking at Yang Cheng, Ferguson's eyes became very sharp, "I'm not willing to win you in this way, but it's not enjoyable, what I hope most is that in the Champions League final, the Red Devils Manchester United vs. Inter Milan, 90 minutes later, we get the championship trophy, shame!" ”
Yang Cheng laughed, he knew that Ferguson would never forget that game in 1999, which was also one of the most memorable games of Yang Cheng's career, when he completed Kaiserslautern and the first treble in Serie A history.
"You're not going to have that chance!" Yang Cheng replied with a smile.
Ferguson stood up and grabbed the windowsill, leaving only a few scattered fans below, the rest had already gone, and the Meazza Stadium was about to fall into the darkness of the third watch.
"I told myself that if I didn't win a Champions League, I wouldn't retire, but luckily, you reminded me!" Ferguson looks scrappy.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "Manchester United this season is almost impossible!" ”
Ferguson nodded, knowing full well that this Manchester United backline was too poor.
"I wish I had the money to pack Nesta and Lucio!" Ferguson joked.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "One hundred million pounds is not enough!" ”
The Scots laughed, what the world lacks most now is the central defender, whoever is stupid enough to sell the main central defender is ready to collapse.
Speaking of which, today's football is really very different from the early years, in the past, the midfield was expensive, and the backfield was cheap, but now there is a serious shortage of players in the backline, the major giants are vying for resources, and the top defensive players are more expensive than the other.
"To be honest, after leaving Inter Milan, did you think about where you were going?" Ferguson asked.
Yang Cheng shook his head, he is a person who decides when things are coming, and now, he really has no ideas, at least not for the time being.
"The only thing I know for sure is that when we meet again, we will still be rivals!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Ferguson also nodded incessantly, "Well said, to have an opponent like you, I feel that I am much younger!" ”
"Would you like to take a walk down the street?" Yang Cheng proposed.
Ferguson looked inquiring, a little puzzled.
"The night in Milan is always very colorful, with your material, when you go to a nightclub, there must be a lot of women in your arms, or go to the red light streets, and the warblers will serve you for free." Speaking of this, Yang Cheng laughed ambiguously, but quickly struck again. "But I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it, old man!"
Ferguson smiled and shook his head, "I can't bear it?" ”
Yang Cheng looked at him for a long time, with a look of suspicion.
"I think back then, I could single out 7 alone!" Ferguson was not ashamed.
Men, they always refuse to admit defeat in this kind of thing, and they always want to blow themselves to the sky and the earth.
"You blow it, you don't have to pay taxes to brag anyway!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Ferguson was depressed, grabbed the red wine in his hand and knocked it over, and smacked, "It's done!" Drink to death you bastard! ”
Yang Cheng laughed, but drank it upside down.
…………
…………
When he woke up in the morning, Yang Cheng found himself in Canalis's bed, naked, full of traces of the aftermath of the war, and it was obvious that he had been drunk last night.
Drinking with an old guy like Ferguson, he can't catch up.
He never drank alcohol, and he suffered a lot in terms of drinking, unlike Ferguson, who had to drink a little with himself at home, and it is said that he had a wine cellar at home to treasure his collection of red wines. Several times, he invited Yang Cheng to his country villa in Cheshire, England, but Yang Cheng didn't dare to go, because he knew that it was the Longtan Tiger's Den, and he must have walked in and carried it out.
Yang Cheng's movement immediately woke up Canalis, who was close to him next to him, and the Italian beauty opened her eyes and saw Yang Cheng, so happy that she clung to him with an indescribable attachment.
"Do you really want to leave Italy?" Canaris asked.
This question alone fully exposes that Canalis really loses out to Heidi Klum and Sienna Miller and others in terms of women's intelligence, because they never ask such questions, which is not what a smart woman should care about.
Yang Cheng didn't like the woman next to him to meddle in this, but he didn't know why, but he didn't hate Canalis asking.
Maybe it's because the other women are too smart, and Canaris's stupidity seems to be very real.
"I don't know!" He replied.
Canalis didn't say much, just held Yang Cheng's hand tightly, resting her head on his chest, listening to his pounding heartbeat.
If Yang Cheng leaves Italy, there will be few such opportunities in the future.
When the time comes, if you want to get together, you don't know how difficult it will be or how long the distance you have to cross.
"No matter where you go or how far you go, I will definitely pester you!" Canalis muttered.
Yang Cheng reached out and brushed her hair, not knowing what to say.
I can't help but think of the conversation with Alex Ferguson last night, the Scots are in their sixties, but they are still full of fighting spirit, which is really admirable.
Although the two got together, they either fought or fought each other, but in fact, in Yang Cheng's heart, Ferguson is still a senior worthy of respect, just like Heathfield.
Speaking of this Bundesliga iron coach, Yang Cheng is a little funny, because not long ago, the German media broke out that he was cheating with a supermodel, and some people suspected that he was brought bad by Yang Cheng, just because Yang Cheng and Heidi Krum were also rumored to have an affair, and even the latter was listed as a candidate for Princess Caesar.
For this reason, Yang Cheng also called Heathfield, on the one hand, he was concerned about his current situation, and on the other hand, he jokingly urged him to clarify and defend himself.
"I'm so pure, I can't afford to be defiled like this!"
Heathfield on the other side of the phone must have been devastated.
But the scandal is a scandal, Heathfield's relationship with his wife is not affected, he knows that the family comes first, and the women outside can't compare with the family, so he survived the scandal unharmed, and the fans did not have any reaction in this matter.
Private life is private life, football field is football field, as long as private life does not affect the football field, who cares if you have an affair with a few women?
However, Yang Cheng's current problem is much more serious than that of Heathfield.
"I really should think about my future!" Yang Cheng said lightly.
He doesn't want to continue to affect Inter Milan because of himself, Ferguson is right, the Champions League was eliminated, injuries are one of the reasons, and the other is because Yang Cheng and the team are distracted.
"Elisabetta, you can say in your program that in the next four rounds of the league, Inter Milan will win all of them, and we will break the record for the highest league points in the history of Serie A and win the championship with an unbeaten record!"
Yang Cheng's eyes re-revealed confidence and determination, and he decided to put everything aside and devote himself to playing well for Inter Milan this season! (To be continued)
