6 Hit a wall

"Do you know him well?"

Sitting on the taxi to Steve Bruce's house, Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask Walsh again.

The latter shook his head, "No, it's just that he met a few times when he came to the fan party, you know, he's been at Manchester United for nine years, so it's impossible for us diehards not to know where his home is, otherwise those new fans are going to block the door and ask for autographs, how can we do it?" ”

Xiao Yu suddenly realized that daring was like this.

"Hey, are you talking about Steve Bruce?" Jim, the driver driving in front, turned his head and asked, and then there was a car meeting in front of him, which frightened him and quickly turned his head.

"He's him, Jim, you know him too?" Walsh asked with a smile.

Jim, the taxi driver, is a regular customer of Walsh's Bar and a member of the Red Devil Order.

"I didn't know him before, but when he was going to the press conference today, he called my car, hehe, according to me, he is still in quite good shape, if you can really poach him to the new Manchester United, I think it is definitely worth it to give him a head coach and let him play!"

Xiao Yu and Walsh both laughed with Jim when they heard this, and even the taxi driver saw the clue, and Xiao Yu was even more sure of his choice.

Although it has been two years since he left Manchester United, Steve Bruce has not sold his house at Manchester United, and during his two years in Birmingham, he returned to Manchester with his wife and son at every opportunity, rather than his hometown of Newcastle.

Since he had just made a trip during the day today, Jim seemed to be familiar with the way, and drove Xiao Yu and the others into a quiet villa community, which was not luxurious, but it was quiet, not disturbed, and the security measures were very complete.

The guards of the community stopped Xiao Yu and the three outside the community, and after hearing about their intentions, they called to inquire about the residents, and after getting Bruce's consent, they put the three inside.

When he came to the villa where Bruce lived, Xiao Yu got out of the car and saw Bruce waiting at the gate with his son, dressed in a light and loose dress with his surname, looking very homely.

Bruce's son, who is 14 years old, is said to have become a professional footballer as well, but not as successful as Steve Bruce, and has only been playing at a lower level.

The case of the Tiger Father and the Dog Son has happened from time to time in the history of football, and it is not worth making a fuss.

"Hello, Mr. Bruce!" Xiao Yu greeted with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao Yu!" Bruce was polite, then greeted Walsh and Jim, who were nearby, and invited the three guests to his home.

The dΓ©cor of Bruce's villa is not luxurious, as it looks, simple and unpretentious, but it gives people a warm and homely feeling.

At this time, Xiao Yu unconsciously remembered those superstars in later generations, once they became famous, they all drove super sports cars and lived in super villas, whether it was food, drink, housing, or travel, all of them were super luxury, is this necessary?

Of course, Xiao Yu is not aimed at anyone, but refers to the general environment of football.

Players of his generation like Bruce, despite their outstanding achievements, actually maintain a very friendly temperament, so even when he faces Jim, a taxi driver, he is still so polite.

The impression of the first meeting completely subverted the Premier League name and coach in Xiao Yu's memory, and he even doubted that the polite family man in front of him would really be able to roar like Ferguson on the football field?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bruce, to bother you!" Xiao Yu said apologetically.

Bruce shook his head with a smile, "It's okay, Mr. Xiao Yu, in fact, I've wanted to know you for a long time, you know, you've been very popular lately!" After speaking, he pointed to a copy of [The Times] on the table, and the page he opened was just describing the new Manchester United, and Xiao Yu's photo appeared in the center.

"Red Rebel, that's a name that resonates with you!" Bruce gave a faint compliment.

Although his tone was very light, in fact, everyone present could hear that he was from the heart.

"In that case, then I'll just say it straight! We want you to be the head coach of our team! ”

Bruce was obviously stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered, and shook his head with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Yu, you know that I just decided not to renew my contract with Birmingham this afternoon, I want to spend time with my wife, and my son, the player's life is too tiring, I already owe them a lot." ”

Xiao Yu was a little disappointed, but still nodded in understanding.

'I know Mr Bruce's ambitions and honestly, I don't think you're going to leave football and your last name is going to make you a great manager, so I hope you think about it.'

"Although our club has only just been formed, everyone in the team has a lot of love for the club and we all love Manchester United deeply, it is this love that makes us persistent, we will not allow ourselves to stay in the amateur league all the time, we want to qualify, we want to meet Manchester United, I believe it will be a game that will go down in history!"

"The reason why I decided to invite you to join us is not just because you are a legend at Manchester United, but because of your skills, your work ethic, your personality and your professionalism, which I believe will be of great help to a new team like ours!"

Xiao Yu tried his best to keep his tongue incorruptible, and said a lot in one breath, knowing it with affection, but Bruce still seemed unmoved.

Walsh on the side saw it and hurriedly helped to say something.

"Mr. Bruce, do you remember me? Andy Walsh! ”

Bruce obviously felt Walsh familiar, thought about it for a while, and thought, "You're a representative of the fan club, I've seen you several times!" ”

Walsh nodded, "Yes, Mr. Bruce, I am Xiao Yu's assistant now, and I and all the fans are very eager for you to be able to go home!" ”

"Home?" Bruce was clearly touched in some way.

"Yes, go home, Mr. Bruce, the new Manchester United is a continuation of the soul of a group of die-hard fans for Manchester United, and we all hope that you will come back and continue to bring us the joy of football!" Walsh said sensationally.

Bruce was moved, in fact, when he saw in the newspaper that Xiao Yu had gone bankrupt to create a new club, he was already moved by Xiao Yu's persistence and Xiao Yu's sincere feelings for Manchester United, and now, Walsh even directly called the new Manchester United a continuation of Manchester United's soul, which can't help but remind Bruce of the slogan of New Manchester United.

There is only one soul!

"Scottish coach Jock Stein once said that football is nothing without fans! So, when Manchester United no longer values our low-class fans, we must find our spiritual sustenance, and this is the new Manchester United! Xiao Yu did his last try.

Bruce couldn't help but nod his head, he is not the only one who is disgusted with some of Manchester United's policies, in fact, many Manchester United stars are disgusted with Manchester United, such as Ferguson has repeatedly reprimanded some decisions of Manchester United's board of directors, and Keane has also angrily criticized Manchester United's way of running the Old Trafford stadium.

As an old Manchester United man, although he has been away for two years, Bruce still has a lot of friends in the Manchester United team, so it is naturally impossible for him not to know the current situation of Manchester United, which deepens his sense of identity with the new Manchester United.

Recognition is recognition, years of professional football career have made it clear to Bruce that in many cases, emotionality will only lead to bad results!

"Okay, Mr. Xiao Yu, I promise you, I will definitely consider your invitation, please give me a few days to think about it, okay?" Bruce said politely.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu obviously felt lost, because he had seen from many online novels that when digging people, the other party said so, which means that there is no drama.

Since everything was already like this, after sitting and chatting for a while, Xiao Yu and the others got up to say goodbye.

Bruce politely sent Xiao Yu and the three of them to the gate, and before leaving, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Mr. Bruce, I've heard that Sheffield United are interested in asking you to be a player-manager now, but in my opinion, this team is not for you because you have a deep Manchester United imprint on you!"

Bruce was stunned, when did Sheffield United invite him? Where did Xiao Yu get this news from?

But when he came to his senses and wanted to ask clearly, Xiao Yu and the three of them had already gotten into the car and left.

Maybe it was because he was not in a good mood when he saw Xiao Yu hit a wall, so Jim deliberately slowed down his car, which was obviously the greatest help a taxi driver could give.

"It's okay, Xiao Yu, Bruce said that he would consider it, so it means that there is still a chance, doesn't it?" Walsh comforted Xiao Yu, but in fact, he was also sure in his heart that he didn't sing.

In the final analysis, the level of the new Manchester United is too low, if the new Manchester United is now a League One, or even as long as it is a League B or League C team, I believe Bruce will not hesitate, but on the contrary, the new Manchester United is only an amateur team in the tenth league, not to mention a former legendary superstar like Bruce, even the Premier League first-team star may not be willing to come.

"Andy, I swear, I must take the new Manchester United to the Premier League, and become a super giant that England, the whole of Europe, and the whole world are shocked by, better than Manchester United, Arsenal, Juventus, Real Madrid, Barcelona and other teams!"

Xiao Yu almost gritted his teeth and said this!

Walsh and Jim were dumbfounded when they heard this, the latter reacted quickly and quickly concentrated on driving, while Walsh was shocked by Xiao Yu's bold words.

After a long time, Walsh looked serious, patted Xiao Yu's shoulder heavily, and nodded: "Good guy, I support you!" ”

"But when the new Manchester United becomes a big club in the future, you can't follow the example of Edwards, otherwise, we will have to form a new Manchester United." Jim looked for an opportunity, turned around, and said solemnly.

Xiao Yu and Walsh couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

The laughter that floated out of the taxi greatly diluted the frustration caused by hitting the wall, but it did not dilute Xiao Yu's determination!

ps: The little man Xiao Yu has finally found a big dream!
