Chapter 118 The saddest sign

"Chelsea."

Ferguson almost wanted to strangle him to death, but he just said it out loud, and he had to say a few nonsense.

Chelsea.

This name seems very stressful this season.

Because it ranks top of the league, it has only lost one time so far, and Manchester United is four points away from them.

This team seems to have found their own way of survival and no one can defeat them.

After their only defeat, losing to Manchester City in a penalty kick, they still made great strides in the league, even Manchester United with Ferguson and Arsenal with Wenger with their Arsenal.

Chelsea, Ferguson murmured, but his mind was full of Mourinho's shadow, the man who claimed to be the first and second, was a special, arrogant guy.

Manchester United just eliminated Arsenal in the League Cup and met Chelsea again. With Mourinho's character, he will definitely not let go of every championship, and this will definitely be two fierce battles.

The two-round home and away game system in the semi-finals of the English League Cup also means that the two teams will have to compete for two games.

The next Christmas schedule is just the beginning, and Manchester United's arduous journey will not stop. The League Cup semi-finals are in January, and January is the UEFA Champions League knockout match in February.

Although there is only one Chelsea’s most difficult time during this period, it is actually difficult to play any team that meets every game in three days. In previous years, the Christmas schedule often determines the ownership of the league championship, and whoever can’t hold on will fall behind.

This season, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are only hopeless to win the league championship, and Liverpool, fourth, has begun to fall behind. The three teams are falling behind first, and whoever falls out of the championship group first.

What made Ferguson very depressed was that Spinach Company was not optimistic about Manchester United this year.

The strongest contender for the league championship only happens between Chelsea and Arsenal.

Chelsea, led by Mourinho, was most favored, followed by defending champion Arsenal, who was unbeaten in 49 games.

As for Manchester United, the reason given by Spinach is - unstable.

From the beginning of the season, Manchester United's first dozen games were not enough to make Spinach think they could win the league title this season.

As soon as I returned to China, media news was flying all over the sky.

Most media are laughing at Manchester United, especially the Times in London.

"Even Fenerbahce can't get it. How far can they go in the Champions League? When Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal qualify strongly, Ferguson still has to have a headache for their unstable frontline..."

Even the city's media and Manchester Evening News are criticizing, "As the top scorer in the Champions League this season, Van Nie should have appeared in the starting lineup, but the bench has worn away his sharpness in scoring goals. I said before the game that relying on three young people to conquer the world is the most unreliable, or is it useful for veterans."

"The team lacks a decisive character, there is no fixed forward core in the frontcourt, and wasting opportunities is like drinking water..."

If you fail, you will naturally not be praised. What's more, Manchester United did not feel as if they were defeated and still honored in the game against Fenerbahce, which was a completely shameful game. Liverpool was praised in the last round of thrilling advancement.

This game also put them at an absolute disadvantage in the Champions League knockout draw on the third day.

When Ferguson rushed to UEFA headquarters, he was still cursing the random media.

Manchester United was praised for winning. Once Manchester United loses, everyone will step on it. It seems that Manchester United loses the happiest thing!

In Nyon, Switzerland, Ferguson and Wenger met unexpectedly, but the two of them thought they didn't know each other and didn't even say hello, and their faces looked in the same direction.

Then he saw Mourinho talking under the spotlight, and Benitez hiding in the corner in a daze...

The Lord had a strange feeling that the English coaches didn't seem to like to gather together, just focused on showing off or just treating them as strangers at all.

On the other hand, the head coach of the Italian club is sitting in the same row and chatting and laughing. Although he is an opponent in China, he is very united abroad.

Ferguson shook his head, found a seat and sat down. He almost knew the head coach of the Champions League quarterfinals this time.

There has never been a weak team in the Champions League knockout stages in recent years. Everyone thinks it is very strong. Ferguson rolled his eyes and couldn't imagine that he would have such an idea.

Manchester United, Lyon, Juventus, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Porto, Real Madrid, Chelsea, AC Milan, Leverkusen, Monaco, Eindhoven, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Bremen.

In this era, the strongest European clubs are here.

According to the principle of avoiding the same country, Manchester United will definitely not meet opponents from the same country in the quarterfinals again. However, in the eight groups, only Arsenal and Chelsea are the first in the group.

AC Milan, Inter Milan, Monaco, Juventus, Chelsea, Arsenal, Lyon and Leverkusen are the first in the group.

From this list, we can see that the Serie A team was the strongest at that time, and the first in the group actually occupied three. The Ligue 1 was also very competitive, occupying two places.

The powerful Arsenal and Chelsea won two seats for the Premier League, and one was Leverkusen, who was soaring in the Bundesliga.

Manchester United will only draw AC Milan and Inter, or Monaco, Juventus or Leverkusen.

The opponent in the same group, Lyon, took the lead in drawing Bremen from Germany. Then it was AC Milan's turn.

Manchester United's name popped up.

“AC Milan…”

Ferguson raised his eyebrows. At this moment, he was a little amused and crying. It was not good to draw AC Milan. At this time, Milan was at its peak.

This is the worst draw, and it is much easier to play when you draw any other opponent!

God, it's simply unimaginable. Why is it Milan?

Ferguson regrets even more that he did not win Fenerbahce away. If he wins Fenerbahce, his team will not meet AC Milan.

But this is an unchangeable fact.

“Milan,”

"It didn't change at all."

Dong Fangzhuo stood in the living room with his upper body naked and watched the TV.

At this time, the TV is broadcasting the draw ceremony of the Champions League knockout match live.

History has not changed, Manchester United still met AC Milan in the knockout round.

No one knows what will happen afterwards than him.

In fact, after the game against Fenerbahce, he vaguely guessed who his opponent was...

What should come, it will come back after all.

AC Milan in the 2004-05 season?

Dong Fangzhuo remembered many well-known players' names, such as Shepchenko, Kaka, Pirlo, Maldini, and Siddorf...
