Article 257 Cultivating a new flag

Mendes received calls from several clubs, including Real Madrid, and vaguely told him that Jonk was no longer in Manchester United's future plans, which means, come on, come on, come to us, we will build the team with you at the core, there is a bright future here, leave the broken ship of the Yankees.

The transfer managers of these giants are more shrewd than monkeys, they know that as long as Jonk is cold to Manchester United, Jonk will offer to leave, if Jonk and Manchester United Club can be broken, then, when the time comes, Jonk is determined to leave Manchester United, and the initiative is not in the hands of the Glazer family.

To be honest, the Glazer family's approach did chill Jonker's heart, his side was seriously injured, and the American boss over there wanted to sell him in exchange for a sky-high transfer fee.

The Glazer family's approach is to sell Jonk at the maximum value when Jonk is at his most prosperous and before Jonk's form declines due to this injury.

This approach, if in terms of business operation, is the most optimal solution, but Jonker is a player, a thinking person, and he has made great contributions to the current situation of Manchester United, which is called the 'new Manchester United dynasty' by the media, two Champions League titles, two Premier League titles, a Club World Cup title, two UEFA Super Cup winners, an FA Cup winner, two Charity Shield winners, and all of these trophies have Jonker's goals.

And now, the approach of the Glazer family, without taking into account the interests of Jonker and not taking into account Jonker's ideas, seems to be in the eyes of the American bosses, Jonk is just their player. To put it bluntly, he is a working boy who has created a huge fortune for them. Now, seeing that Jonk is in danger of 'declining performance'. I want to make a lot of money while Jonk is still useful.

As for whether the seriously injured Jonker would be dead or alive at that time, they didn't bother to care.

After analysing the situation with Mendes, although Jonk did not want to leave Manchester United, he also began to prepare for both, Jonk is not the kind of 'foolish' person, if the Manchester United club management really does not consider his ideas and directly pushes him into the transfer market. Jonk won't make the Yankees comfortable either.

However, Jonker does not think that the Glazer family will put themselves in the transfer market in the winter, because the Glazer family also knows that the winter break is not a good time to sell, on the one hand, because Jonk has played for Manchester United in the Champions League and will not be able to represent other giants in this season's Champions League; The second is that the American owner can't afford to put Jonk in the transfer market to put the club in turmoil; In addition, there is an important point that Jonk has not recovered from his injury. This also determines that even the team that covets Jonk will be very careful, at least until Jonk recovers from his injury and can play games and have a medical examination.

So. During this time, the club's top management also frequently created momentum, saying that Jonk was not for sale for the team. Waiting for the summer transfer market to arrive.

Of course, the most important thing is. Ferguson adamantly disagreed with putting Jonk in the transfer market, in fact. Considering Ferguson's trust in him, this is also what Jonker has the most nostalgia for Manchester United.

"Consider what?" Jonk sneered, "The club now wishes I could come out and say something like a transfer." ”

Mendes snorted, this is really the case, the Glazer family is interested in selling Jonk for a large price to cash out, but on the one hand, they are worried that this move will cause strong protests from Manchester United fans, and on the other hand, they are worried that it will anger Ferguson and make it out of control, so they want Jonk to jump out and say something.

In this way, you can label Jonk as a traitor, not only to sell Jonk for cash, but also not to offend the fans, and to put the infamy on Jonk, how good it is.

"Actually, I have a lot of feelings for Manchester United." Jonker sighed, he said from the bottom of his heart, he didn't think about leaving Manchester United, under Ferguson's weight, Jonk is already the current banner of Manchester United, Jonk is planning to play well in Manchester United, and personally lead the team to create a great dynasty.

"Don't talk about this, who let Manchester United have such an American boss, a poor ghost, or borrowed money to buy Manchester United, the reason why they bought Manchester United is not to make money from Manchester United, now it's okay, you are the cash cow in the eyes of the Glazer family, the Yankees know a fart football, they just want to make money." Mendes's words can be regarded as the root of the matter, the American owners of Manchester United, the pursuit of profit is the first purpose, they don't care too much about the feelings of the fans, and they care about the feelings of Jonker.

Mendes encouraged Jonk to transfer, in Mendes' view, Manchester United is far inferior to Real Madrid in terms of player development, and he suggested that Jonk could consider an invitation from Madrid's giants, believing that only a team like Real Madrid is worthy of Jonker's current status.

Of course, this is only Mendes' personal opinion.

Mendes found two goblets, opened the red wine, poured two glasses, one for himself and one for Jonk, and he said a word that made Jonk fall into thought.

"You're at Manchester United, you've won the league title, you've won the Champions League, you've won the FA Cup, you've won the Club World Cup, you've got the UEFA Super Cup, you've got the Charity Shield, I've got the math, the league and the European Golden Boot, I want to ask, do you have any other goals at Manchester United? Don't tell me, your goal is to win the League Cup that you haven't won! If you don't have a goal, you don't have motivation, you're only 23 years old this year, and if you don't have motivation, you have to go. ”

This sentence really made Jonk think about it carefully, all along, his idea is very simple, he is very good at Manchester United, Ferguson values himself very much, and carefully cultivates himself to be the captain of the team, as long as the old man is in Manchester United for a day, he will not leave, but now listening to Mendes say this, he is still too emotional, and he has not considered it too carefully.

Having won almost every title he could have won at Manchester United, Jonker also had to worry about whether he would lose his motivation to move forward, and it was terrible to have no motivation and desire.

A new environment to meet new challenges? Jonk hesitated.

In addition, Jonker's heart also figured out a little. Even this time, under Ferguson's opposition, the Glazer family would not sell Jonk. Well, there is no guarantee that there will be no next time. The Yankees' business strategy of selling Jonk at his peak to make the most profit is hardly going to change.

Even if Jonker stays at Manchester United this time, will Ferguson really be able to withstand the pressure after one season, two seasons, three seasons, five seasons? The old Scottish man is only the manager, not the owner of the team. Besides, Ferguson is also older. The health is not very good, what about the old man after he retires......

However, despite understanding this, in any case, Jonker still thinks about staying at Manchester United first.

However, Jonk has also made a decision that if he can avoid the transfer, then it would be better if the club does sell itself. Jonk is not at the mercy of others, he will fight for his future as much as possible.

Jonk wouldn't be willing to be a cash cow in the hands of the Glazer family, whatever, if the Yankees really didn't care about their own feelings. I won't be so honest myself.

By the time Jonk was finally able to walk on crutches, it was mid-February 2009.

Carrington Training Base.

"Hey, Cristiano! It's time to take a break. There's a game tomorrow! ”

Manchester United's substitute goalkeeper Kuszzak couldn't save Cristiano Ronaldo's powerful shot after a beautiful leap and the Polish goalkeeper sat in front of goal. Panting to Cristiano Ronaldo. He has been regularly pulled in by Cristiano Ronaldo for training lately, since Cristiano Ronaldo returned from injury. In the midst of his extraordinary efforts, the chaotic pies, it was rare to see the shadow of Manchester United's No.7 during this time, and he focused all his energy on training and games.

Although no one said it, everyone could see that Cristiano Ronaldo's desperate efforts were related to Jonker's injury and absence, Cristiano Ronaldo just wanted to prove that Jonk can lead the team to do it when Jonk is not in the team, and he Cristiano Ronaldo can also do it and do better.

Cristiano Ronaldo wiped a handful of sweat and let out a sigh, the long shooting training made him a little exhausted, after Jonker's injury, Cristiano Ronaldo took on the task of attacking the city for Manchester United, he was on the field, not only appeared in the winger position, but also tried the center forward position, which also made Cristiano Ronaldo feel that he was a gap in shooting compared with Jonker, so he consciously began to train hard without interruption.

This is his chance to surpass Jonker, and Cristiano Ronaldo knows it.

All along, Jonker's shine has made Cristiano Ronaldo a supporting role, of course he is not reconciled, this time Jonk was injured, Cristiano Ronaldo became the core of the team, of course he wants to achieve something, at least to lead Manchester United to win a championship in the league or the Champions League.

"Practice a little longer, Kushzak." This time, Cristiano Ronaldo placed the ball far away from the goal, about 40 meters from the goal, and he tried to practice hanging shot, a wonderful arc, Kushzak retreated again and again, barely lifting the ball off the crossbar.

"Again." Cristiano Ronaldo shouted loudly.

Jonk opened his eyes and looked at the somewhat messy sheets on the bed, thinking about the madness with Nana last night, and his lower abdomen was hot again. His injury recovered well, Xuan Gong helped recover the foot injury, making Yi Qiē look much better than expected, and it is also strange that it has become a habit not to use Xuan Gong when playing games, or his leg will not break, although he is not able to train with the ball now, but he can already do strenuous exercise in bed.

It was dark inside, and Jonker pulled the curtains open a crack to see no bright sunlight, it was cloudy today, and it was drizzling outside.

Kicking the shoe holder, Jonk stretched.

"Honey."

"What's the matter?" NANA'S VOICE CAME FROM THE KITCHEN DOWNSTAIRS.

"What time is it?"

"Nine-thirty in the morning!"

"Oh, good morning, dear."

"Good morning. It's time for breakfast in a moment. ”

"Okay. Just come. ”

Jonk looked out the window at the gray sky and sniffed at the smell of breakfast. I was in a good mood and was not affected by the continuous winter rains. NANA HAS BEEN BY Jonker's side for months. She also pushed down the next film appointment that had been negotiated, and took care of Jonk for nothing. After Jonker's injury. NANA WAS NOT ABLE TO COME BACK TO ACCOMPANY JUNK IN THE FIRST PLACE, WHICH MADE NANA FEEL GUILTY ALL THE TIME AND WAS DETERMINED TO MAKE UP FOR JONKER.

"Wow, that's a lot of money." JONK HUGGED NANA FROM BEHIND AND KISSED HER.

The breakfast on the table was indeed hearty, bread, fried sausages, bacon, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, bean stew, hot milk, cereal, yogurt, french fries, coffee still brewing in the coffee machine.

Seeing the steaming glass of milk, Jonk smiled happily. Westerners like to eat cereal for breakfast, their oatmeal is rich in variety, processed from a variety of grains, can provide rich carbohydrates and dietary fiber, and nuts and dried fruits are generally added to the oatmeal, making full use of the idea of dietary diversity.

However, the British habit is to use cold milk to make cereal, which makes Jonker, a "foreigner" who is used to eating a hot breakfast, quite unaccustomed.

After breakfast, Jonker turned on the TV and locked on the sports channel of Manchester TV. Drinking coffee while watching the news is his habit during this period of recuperation.

On TV, sports news is being played, and now it's on TV. It was a man in a suit and tie whom Jonk knew, and this was Manchester TV's ace reporter Michael Murphy. Dawn. Jonk was interviewed once.

"Now to bring you the news from yesterday's UEFA Champions League." Michael. Dawn said, with an unconcealed joy between his eyebrows. "In the first leg of the Champions League quarters match last night, Premier League side Manchester United drew 1-1 away at Serie A side Inter Milan at the Meaza Stadium. Cristiano Ronaldo equalised for Manchester United in the final moments of the game, which is already the seventh consecutive game for Manchester United's No. 7, and in the absence of Jonker injured, Manchester United did not have the problem of 'Jonk dependence' that everyone feared before, Cristiano Ronaldo stepped up. The away goal also set the stage for Manchester United's home v Inter Milan game, which ...... after the game.

"Cristiano Ronaldo stood up......," Jonk said to himself, I don't know what day it started, Manchester's mainstream media began to focus on reporting Cristiano Ronaldo's appearance in Manchester United, and gradually there was a sense of downplaying Jonker's influence, and Cristiano Ronaldo's performance during this period was really good, although it was not as terrifying as Jonck's peak state, but it was still able to lead Manchester United to continue to move forward on four lines and maintain the hope of winning the championship.

There was a starting voice in Manchester that Jonker didn't seem indispensable to Manchester United.

Jonk already knew from Mendes that this was the strategy of the Glazer family, and began to praise Cristiano Ronaldo to build momentum for Jonker's departure, he was not worried at all that this would affect Jonker's value, after all, Jonk's fame and strength were there, and now, Jonk is still 'the world's No. 1 striker', so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell it for a good price, and the American owner does this, mainly to reduce Jonker's prestige among fans and prepare for the sale of Jonk in the future.

Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo's performance also made the senior management of Manchester United more happy, and the strength of the Portuguese showed Xiàn, which gave them confidence, even if they sold Jonk, Manchester United's results did not seem to be affected much.

Of course, this qiē is carried out in secret, and the fans don't know it, and only those who have a heart can feel a hint of it.

On March 4, 2009, in the 28th round of the English Premier League, Manchester United went to St James' Park to play a match against Newcastle.

Although Manchester United have been in good form recently and are already leaders in the league, Newcastle at home has played aggressively after the start, Newcastle is now in the relegation zone, and the relegation situation is not optimistic, now, every game, every point, and even every goal is extremely valuable for Newcastle, the former powerhouse of the Premier League.

The pace of the game was fast-paced, but the cameras were focused on the stands at St James' Park, where Jonker was present for the first time after nearly four months of injury. Jonker naturally became the focus of the camera's attention, and his actions in the stands were filmed from time to time.

In the 11th minute, Newcastle, who were playing at home, scored first, it was Gutierrez who passed a high ball in the midfield, Martins fought with Brown in the front, he ferried the football to Enrique, who was inserted, and ran forward, Enrique passed a through ball, Martins was like a black lightning, and burst into the Manchester United penalty area with the ball, and in the face of Van der Sar, he chose to volley into the near corner, and the ball went in.

Seeing Martins break through the Manchester United goal, Jonk stood up regretfully, he shook his head, this game is not to be lost for Manchester United, Manchester United vs Newcastle game was played at noon on Monday, and the other top three matches in the Premier League have ended, Chelsea beat Portsmouth 1-0 away, Arsenal also defeated Leeds United 3-1 at Elland Road Stadium, Liverpool beat Sunderland 2-0 at home, the league title rivals have won, Manchester United must avoid the possibility of dropping points. Now, the league has reached the sprint stage, and no game is careless.

After conceding the goal, Manchester United, led by Cristiano Ronaldo, launched a fierce attack on the Newcastle goal.

This is the first time that Jonk has watched the game on the spot since his injury, and he saw that Cristiano Ronaldo is indeed good, and he already has the appearance of the team's offensive core, which is no wonder the American owner is so confident.

Jonker began to imagine how he would lead the team on the pitch if he were on the pitch, comparing himself to Cristiano Ronaldo.

Gradually, Jonk discovered that the current Cristiano Ronaldo is like himself two years ago, at this time, he was thinking more about scoring goals on the field, and some opportunities that could create opportunities for his teammates were not grasped.

At this time, Jonker was also in the stands, he should be grateful to Ferguson, it was Ferguson who cultivated Jonker as the captain, so that Jonk felt the responsibility of the captain's armband, and Jonk also paid more attention to the contribution he could bring to the whole team on the field, how to lead the whole team to victory. On the pitch, Jonker not only thinks about scoring goals, but also does a better job of timing his passes and creating opportunities for his teammates.

This game is more like a show of a personal hero called Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the 31st minute of the first half, Manchester United equalised when Wayne Rooney was brought down by Newcastle defender Taylor and United were awarded a penalty. Cristiano Ronaldo took the penalty kick to the left side of the goal, Newcastle goalkeeper Harper misjudged the direction, 1:1!

At the beginning of the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball, he was fouled by Grammie, Manchester United won a free kick 27 meters from the left of the goal, Cristiano Ronaldo himself took the free kick, it was a high-quality free kick, the football hung in the top left corner of the goal, Manchester United overtook Newcastle 2:1.

It was also the final score of the game, and Manchester United won hard-fought thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliant table.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the focus of the game, however, outside the field, Jonker, who came to watch the game away today, is the biggest focus, after the game, Jonk went to the hotel where the Manchester United team stayed, ready to meet his teammates, and was immediately surrounded by media reporters, and for a while countless microphones stretched out, all wanting to hear what the star who won the World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or said, especially during the period of Jonker's injury, which has been very low-key, which makes the media very depressed.

Jonk seemed to be in a good mood, and he smiled and said, "I don't have time to give too many interviews, and I can't answer you reporters so much, so let's just do this reporter." He casually named a reporter, a reporter for The Times.

Bernard, a reporter for The Times, was pleased that Jonker would casually choose to be interviewed by him, and immediately began to ask questions. (To be continued......)
