Bernard, a reporter for The Times, was delighted that Jonker would casually choose to be interviewed by him, and he had a question in his head, asking: "Mr. Jonker, this is your first time on the pitch since you were injured, how does it feel?" ”

Jonk smiled and said: "This time I was in the stands to watch the game, and it was a great torture for me to watch my teammates play and not be able to play. ”

Bernard asked again: "Manchester United won today, Cristiano Ronaldo's cousin, do you have anything to say?" ”

Jonk said: "I'm happy to see the team win, Cristiano? His watch was fantastic, and that free-kick was beautiful. ”

Bernard smiled slyly: "Aren't you worried about losing your main position after returning from injury?" ”

Jonk had been prepared for such a problem for a long time, he smiled and said: "There is nothing to worry about, I believe in my own strength, I think, when I come back from injury, it will be a happy worry for Alex, but for the team, it is good." In addition, the positions of me and Cristiano do not overlap and we can complement each other, as before. ”

Bernard, who obviously had some of the problems in the past, asked, "There has been a lot of news about your transfers, and after you come back from injury, if you find that Manchester United are no longer what you thought they were, would you choose to leave?" If you leave? ”

This question annoyed Jonker a little, but he knew that he really couldn't answer it casually, and Jonk smiled slightly. "I'm very happy at Manchester United and I think that answer represents what I mean. ”

Bernard didn't seem to see Jonker's impatience. "We heard that you will be put into the transfer market by the club. With this news, can you assure Manchester United fans that you will stay at Manchester United? ”

Jonk stared at the chubby face in front of him. He replied, "All I can say is that if I had a choice, I would always stay at Old Trafford, I love it. ”

Bernard's eyes lit up, and he quickly continued, "Do you mean that you can't decide your own future?" ”

With a mocking smile on his lips, Jonk said, "I wish I could." ”

Bernard had a keen grasp of something from Jonck's self-deprecating remark.

The next day, Bernard, a columnist for The Times, wrote an article. Here, Bernard made a prediction that seemed bold to all, saying that in the context of the international financial crisis, the debt-ridden Glazer family could no longer stand the smell of cheese called 'Jonker', and that in the summer transfer market, Jonk would leave Manchester United, which would also set a record for the highest transfer in the history of Zào football.

Bernard's article did not attract too many people's attention. Especially for Manchester United fans, the words of the Times reporter are a bit of a nightmare, and they don't think the team's flag will leave.

As for the media's promotion of Jonker's inability to reconcile with Cristiano Ronaldo after returning from injury. Manchester United fans don't think it's much of a problem, in their opinion, before Jonker's injury. Jonk is the heart and banner of Manchester United's attack, and Cristiano Ronaldo is one of Jonk's main helpers. When Jonk returns from injury, he will return to his old days.

on this. Bernard said in his next article "Why I Said Jonker Will Leave": Manchester United No. 7 is no longer willing to be a supporting role, after Jonk returns from injury, Manchester United is no longer facing the question of whether the two can coexist, but the question of who is the team's flag when they fall to the ground, of course, many people will say that Jonk is the flag, which means that between Manchester United No. 25 and Manchester United No. 7, someone may have to leave, and what we have to say is that Jonker's value is tens of millions of pounds higher than Cristiano Ronaldo... …

On March 8, in the quarter-finals of the 2008-2009 English FA Cup, Manchester United defeated Fulham 4-0 away, and Cristiano Ronaldo scored four goals.

On March 11, in the second leg of the 2008-2009 Champions League one-eighth match, Manchester United defeated Inter Milan 2-1 at home, eliminated the Nerazzurri with an aggregate score of 3-2, and entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

In this match, Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice.

All of a sudden, the media poured all the praise on Cristiano Ronaldo, and an argument was spreading that Manchester United could still be invincible without Jonker because they still had Cristiano Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo also expressed his ambition in a subsequent interview with the BBC, "I hope to be the flag of the team, which will motivate me to play harder." ”

When a BBC reporter asked Cristiano Ronaldo, "As far as we know, Jonk is much higher in the captaincy of Manchester United. ”

Cristiano Ronaldo said with a bad face, "That was before." ”

At this time, everyone began to pay attention to the article of the reporter of the Times called Bernard, and it was clear that, as Bernard said, Cristiano Ronaldo began to be unwilling to play a supporting role.

Today is the first time Jonker has practiced with the ball, and he has been away from football for four months, so when Jonk feels the touch of the ball and the surface of his foot again, he seems more excited, and he has not felt this feeling for a long time.

It was a big day for Jonker to train with the ball, and hundreds of reporters came outside the Carrington training base, all of whom wanted to witness Jonker's first touch of the ball after more than 4 months of injury, which was also the hype of Manchester United's public relations manager Phil, who upheld the meaning of the Glazer family, which was to convey to the outside world that Jonker was recovering well, without any problems, and without any worries.

In fact, Jonker did recover much better than expected.

While this made the Glazer family breathe a sigh of relief, it strengthened the Yankees' determination to push Jonk into the transfer market, because, thinking of Jonker's injury at that time. George. Glazer was sweating profusely, at the time. He thought of Jonker's possible 'shrinking value', and that distressed. Therefore, the Glazer family has almost made up their minds, no matter what, they will sell Jonker when he is the most valuable, and the fragile heart of the Yankees can't stand the blow of Jonk's injury again.

Now, the Glazer family's biggest concern is Ferguson's opposition to the sale of Jonk, however. As Cristiano Ronaldo's table is getting better and better, the Glazer family has also begun to have the confidence to have a showdown with Ferguson.

Simply carried out the touch training, every time Jonker touched the ball, won the applause of the on-site reporters and the Manchester United fans outside the field, some fans even shed tears of excitement, which also made Jonk very moved, he knew that the fans still loved him so much, and did not forget his contribution to the Manchester United team.

Ferguson looked at Jonker with love and affection in his eyes. "The injury doesn't recover in a day, let's stop here today, go home and rest."

"It's okay, I feel great. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to play. Jonk said excitedly.

Ferguson was serious about Jonck's injury and recovery, and certainly wouldn't allow Jonk to be willful. He glared at Jonk and said. "That's it, first touch. If it takes too long, it will have an impact on your injury. ”

Jonk could only carefully unload the ball, step on it, sigh and say, "I can't wait to play." ”

Ferguson smiled and patted Jonker on the shoulder, "Go ahead, go to the sauna to steam, get rid of the fatigue, and take a shower." ”

The reporters on the sidelines saw that Ferguson was so doting on Jonker, and they began to doubt their own judgment, because everyone could see how incredible it was to get Ferguson to agree to sell Jonk.

Just as Jonk was training on the ball and was recovering well, the Reds were in trouble.

On March 14, the 29th round of the league, Manchester United played at home with Liverpool.

Manchester United 3:3 Liverpool in this season's match at Anfield, the only time the Reds have scored more than one goal in the last 13 games between the two sides.

Before the game, the media was also generally optimistic about Manchester United, who had won all four home games against Liverpool. In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo has been in hot form recently, and this game is also Cristiano Ronaldo's 150th start for Manchester United in the Premier League.

The course of the game also seemed to be expected by the media, Manchester United took the lead in the 23rd minute, Anderson passed through to the left side of the penalty area, the attacking Reina touched Park Ji-sung, referee Willy awarded a penalty, Cristiano Ronaldo stood on the penalty spot, and Cristiano Ronaldo scored a penalty in his 150th Premier League start, which was the Portuguese's 28th goal of the season, including 20 league goals, which also made Cristiano Ronaldo's goals rise to the top of the scorer list.

The Old Trafford stadium roared with joy and the on-site commentators were loudly announcing that it was United's 700th Premier League goal at home.

Jonk also applauded the goal from the stands, being part of the United squad and certainly happy with the goal.

However, just five minutes later, Liverpool were level when Skrtel kicked the ball off the pitch, Nemanja Vidic made a low-level mistake and Torres cleverly stepped in to steal the ball and won a one-on-one goal, and his shot went past Van der Sar's ten fingers to make it 1-1!!

Liverpool overtook the score in the 44th minute, Gerrard burst into the right side of the penalty area and was tackled by Evra from behind, referee Wiley decisively awarded a penalty, Van der Sar delayed time and was yellow carded, Gerrard shot a penalty low into the bottom right corner of the net, Manchester United 1:2 Liverpool.

More than 70 minutes into the second half, Manchester United were still 1-2 down at home, and despite their hard work on the pitch, the attacking effect was not good.

'Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball – he opted for a long-range shot – and the Portuguese should have trusted his team-mates more. Commentator Taibi was critical of Cristiano Ronaldo.

At this time, the camera frequently focused on Jonk in the stands, and Jonke looked solemn.

United suffered a double blow in the 76th minute, when Nemanja Vidic, who had conceded a goal in the first half, made another low-level mistake. He made a mistake on the ball and was tackled by Gerrard and almost got a one-on-one shot, and Vidic had no choice but to foul him. Sent off with a red card. Aurelio's free-kick from 25 yards out on the right was a direct goal, but Van der Sar did not react to the goal. Manchester United 1:3 Liverpool.

This time. Jonk sighed from the stands, he knew that his team had lost the game, because whether it was Cristiano Ronaldo or Rooney or Nani, they all lost their cool, and as soon as they got the ball on the pitch, they chose to go it alone or choose to shoot from distance, so that it would have no effect except wasting chances and time.

Ultimately. The score of this game was Manchester United 1:4 Liverpool, in the injury time of the whole game, Liverpool goalkeeper Reina made a long pass, O'Shea was not tight, and Dosena shot with his left foot from outside the arc of the penalty area into the net.

At the end of the game, as Dosena raced to the boos at Old Trafford to celebrate his goal, and when Gerrard yelled at the camera behind the corner flag, the camera gave a big close-up of Jonker in the stands, who was turning his head away. The camera follows his back until he is out of sight.

"Humiliating loss!"

Manchester United lost 4-1 at home to bitter rivals Liverpool, and after the game, Manchester United's official website used the word 'shame' to describe the game.

And Liverpool also relied on this game. Narrowing the gap on points to leaders Manchester United, who are now just four points ahead of Liverpool with nine league games remaining. The Premier League title is in suspense again.

"Liverpool erupted at a critical moment and they unleashed a fateful blow!" - The Times praised Liverpool's performance in this game. And the footage of Reds captain Steven Gerrard yelling at the sideline camera at the end of the game became the most frequently used photo in many media outlets.

Jonker watching the game from the stands at Old Trafford. Leaving the stadium as soon as the game was over, he was surrounded by dozens of media in the parking lot. When reporters asked him to talk about the game, Jonk was cautious, saying, "We're still the frontrunners [in the league] and as long as we don't make mistakes, the league championship can't run." As for the media's sharp comments about Cristiano Ronaldo's cousin in this match, Jonk avoided this sensitive topic.

Jonk didn't talk about this topic, and the media didn't let Cristiano Ronaldo go, before this game, it was still a word of praise for Cristiano Ronaldo, and there was a lot of accusation for Manchester United No. 7, they said that Cristiano Ronaldo said before the game that he would win over Liverpool, it seemed that Cristiano Ronaldo was a little fluttering, saying that Cristiano Ronaldo and Jonker still have a gap compared to Jonke, saying that when the team needed him to stand up the most, Manchester United No. 7 disappeared.

When Jonk was eating breakfast the next morning, he watched the accusations against Cristiano Ronaldo in the media, and for no reason, he did not feel happy, but more of a deep disgust for the media who saw the wind and steered the rudder.

Truth be told, Jonker never thought Cristiano Ronaldo was close to being a threat to him, and his worries about his future at Manchester United were more due to off-football factors, and he was already deeply wary of the Glazer family.

After the league match between Manchester United and Liverpool, there is a two-week league suspension, which is the international break.

Before the Portuguese team announced the player squad for the national team competition, the head coach made a special phone call to communicate with Jonker, and the team doctor of the Portuguese national team also went to the Carrington training base to check the recovery of Jonker's right foot injury.

A week later, Portugal lost 2-1 to European powerhouse Sweden in the 2010 World Cup European qualifiers in South Africa, and Gomez's goal gave Portugal the lead, but Swedish striker Ibrahimovic broke out in this game, and Swedish striker scored a direct penalty and scored a header to help Sweden win over Portugal.

This defeat also made Portugal's position at the top of the group more secure, and the media's criticism of the Portuguese team, after a period of dormancy, began to be lively again.

On March 19, Jonker played his first intra-team match since his injury, and he scored a goal.

However, this also made many fans and media reporters excited, because they were able to participate in the intra-team competition. It was also a crucial step for Jonker to be able to play.

After training, Jonker volunteered to stay and practice his shots. He still feels that due to the long absence of the formation, his shooting feels like he still needs to go through training and games to slowly recover.

But. Jonker didn't complain about anything, he was seriously injured this time, and he was able to recover very well, and the injury did not recur, which made Jonk more satisfied.

As for the feeling of the goal, Jonker believes he will slowly get it back.

Most of the players in the United squad left, and Jonker came out of the bathroom after half an hour of training on his own. It's sunset, and dozens of loyal fans of Manchester United, wearing the number 25 shirt, are waiting for him outside Carrington's training base, shouting his name, cheering him on, wanting to take pictures with him and ask for autographs.

Jonk smiled and signed autographs for the fans.

Fan leader McDonald shouted through the barbed wire, "Jonker, will you play in the game against Fulham the day after tomorrow?" ”

'I'm eager to play, though. It depends on what the boss means. Jonk shrugged, "I'll have to listen to him." ”

"The right foot is alright, right?"

'We can't wait to see you score.' The fans shouted loudly.

Jonk looked at the smiles of the fans, and he knew that these lovely fans really cared about him. Looking forward to his comeback, Jonker's heart was warm.

Two days later, on March 22, 2009. At 15:00 p.m., the 30th round of the 2008/2009 English Premier League season was contested at Craven Villa Stadium.

Ferguson still didn't risk putting Jonk in the squad. Still, Jonk came to the stands at Craven Villa to cheer on the team.

In the 18th minute of the game, Manchester United suffered a double whammy. Fulham won a corner, Fulham player Simon Davies took a corner, Hangrande's header was blocked, Zamora headed again, and when the football was about to cross the goal line, Scholes actually blocked Zamora's header with his hand in front of the goal line.

Referee Hurd did not hesitate to send Scholes off and awarded a penalty.

Former Liverpool midfielder Murphy converted a penalty to give Fulham a 1-0 lead over Manchester United.

Because it was Liverpool's veteran Murphy who hit the penalty kick, Sky TV commentator Taibbi shouted, 'Liverpool is ahead of Manchester United again', mocking Manchester United's 1-4 home defeat to Liverpool in the last round of the league.

At the end of the first half, the score remained unchanged as Manchester United trailed 1-0 at Fulham.

Jonk went down from the stands and entered the away locker room at Craven Villa Stadium, this was the first time he entered the team dressing room in a game after his injury, and his teammates were very happy about his arrival, even Cristiano Ronaldo also hugged Jonk in a friendly way, although the two were rivals, but, anyway, teammates, and in private, they were friends.

Jonk enthusiastically took the initiative to hug Cristiano Ronaldo, which made Cristiano Ronaldo, who was a little embarrassed because he said something contradictory to Jonke.

Jonk cheered everyone on, hoping that the team could equalize in the second half and eventually overtake the score and win this game.

As he was leaving, Jonk high-fived Cristiano Ronaldo again and told him that he hoped Cristiano Ronaldo would lead the team to victory.

I don't know if it's because of Jonck's words, Cristiano Ronaldo has pressure, or he attaches great importance to the game, to be a good table, after the start of the second half of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo's table can only be said to be average, Manchester United team in the case of one less, Cristiano Ronaldo is not in good shape, the team's offense has never played a decent match, more often, it is Cristiano Ronaldo who uses personal skills to break through after winning the ball aloneHowever, Fulham have clearly studied Cristiano Ronaldo thoroughly and have been successful in defending Cristiano Ronaldo. On the contrary, it is the Fulham table that is playing at home is getting better and better.

Fulham sealed the win in the 87th minute with a 3-on-2 chance in front. Johnson's cross from the right side of the penalty area, the unguarded Hungarian international Guerra stopped the ball and volleyed a hook shot, Van der Sar pounced on the football, but the power of the shot was great, and he was still unable to stop the football from entering the net - Fulham led Manchester United 2-0!

A minute later, United suffered another heavy blow and after the referee awarded a foul, Wayne Rooney was sent off for a second yellow card for a needless kick.

This made Ferguson on the sidelines furious, the old Scottish man was not angry with the referee Hurd, but at Rooney, the second yellow card of the little fat man was completely self-inflicted, when Cristiano Ronaldo's form was in trouble, Rooney's suspension made Manchester United's attack suffer a great test.

And the camera lens at the scene is also aimed at Jonck in the stands of Craven Villa Stadium, as if asking when he will be able to return from injury? (To be continued......)
