Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels
Chapter 282
Manchester's winter is wet and cold, but the red flame in the city of Manchester is still burning, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has won seven consecutive victories since arriving at Old Trafford with the Red Devils' DNA, and the fans, players and management are all looking "it's dawn".
FC United ended 2018 with a terrifying 11-game winning streak, although it ended the winning streak with a draw with title rivals Manchester City, the good news is that Manchester City lost to Leicester City and Crystal Palace in succession, FC United has thrown off the blue moon in the standings by as many as 8 points, and is currently on the same points as Liverpool, only behind the Reds on a goal difference in second place.
With the Champions League game out of task for the time being, coupled with Lu Wei's rational use of the rotation lineup, FC United has not received much injury, and the most serious injury is only Maddison's sprained ankle. The Africa Cup of Nations has also been rescheduled to the summer of '19, and Choupo-Moting, the only African in the team, will not leave, and now FC United has a very complete squad.
Lu Wei did not make any moves in the winter window of '19, no player will be absent for a long time, although the defenders committed a lot of fouls during the game, but did not get many yellow cards, but the most yellow cards on their backs were Matuidi's three.
Harry Maguire, Rice and Tarkovski have all received only two yellow cards, and even the illustrious Pepe has only one yellow card recorded, and at this pace, I am afraid that no one will be suspended until the end of the season for accumulating yellow cards.
And even if someone can't play because of injury or suspension, FC United's bench also has plenty of thickness and depth to make up, in terms of squad depth, FC United doesn't dare to say that it is comparable to Real Madrid and Manchester City, but even now this set of substitute lineups, a separate team in the Premier League also has the strength to impact the European seats.
Tarkovsky, Webster, Teter, Rice, Krunich, Daniel. James and Choupo-Moting will all play in European competitions in the next few years, and Thierry Henry, McGinn and Saint-Maximin will not play in European competitions, but they are also capable of playing the main role in the middle of the Premier League.
In the 23rd round of the 18-19 Premier League season, Liverpool topped the table with a proud record of 19 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, FC United Manchester also had 19 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss with 60 points, and the third place Manchester City had 16 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses with 52 points, followed by Tottenham Hotspur with 48 points.
At present, the Premier League title has become the target of Liverpool and FC United, and Manchester City can only pray that the Reds and the Red Rebels will drop the chain at the same time.
"It's been a long time since you've been here, Lu."
The owner of the red bar is also former FC United coach Carl Brown. Marginson wiped the cup in his hand, wiped it three or two times and put it in front of Lu Wei, turned around and took out a bottle from the counter, and skillfully opened the bottle and poured the wine.
"I'm in for a treat tonight, this bottle of wine is specially reserved for you, and I wish you an easy win tomorrow."
Lu Wei had a black line on his face, raised the wine glass in front of him and shook it.
"Carl, I'm literate, I'm not short-sighted, and your bottle clearly says grape juice and non-alcoholic drinks, you call it wine?"
After that, he drank the drink in the cup.
"The taste is okay, it's just a little astringent."
"Hehe, it's not that I don't give you alcohol, don't you have a game tomorrow, I remember that the team has a rule, all first-team members are not allowed to drink alcohol 24 hours before the game, including the coach, this rule is still proposed by you, although you are still the president of the club, but it is not good to violate the rules."
Cal. Marginson smirked.
"It's good to remember, I heard that there are several amateur teams that want to ask you to go out and become a coach again, is it true?"
"You're well-informed, yes, there are a few teams that have invited me, Ashton United, Wildstone, and Colwin Bay in the National League, don't look at me as I only have five years of experience in the amateur league, the national league is only one step away from the professional league."
"So, when are you going to change hands on this bar?"
Lu Wei quietly took a sip of grape juice and asked casually.
"What, do you want it?"
"How is it possible, I can't keep busy with the team's affairs, I'm just curious, it's the middle of the season, and it should be more urgent to invite you to coach at this time, and I haven't heard of the news that the bar is going to change hands in the past few days."
Lu Wei shook the dark purple grape juice in the glass, how he wished that he was now holding a glass of wine.
"Who said I'm going to change hands? The bar is running so well, I don't want to leave. "
Huh?"
Lu Wei raised his head and looked at Marginson, who was tidying up the cup holder by himself, Marginson felt Lu Wei's gaze, put down the work in his hand, and pointed to the lively crowd in the hall.
"Lu, do you know how long I've been in football?"
Lu Wei shook his head, he had only heard of Carl. Marginson used to be a player, the position is a midfielder, in the late 90s active in the fourth division of England, which was still called the third division at the time, and also played in the second division with the team, at the age of 35, after learning that Walsh established FC United, he retired directly and came here to become the team's manager.
Cal. Marginson is a native of Newton Heath and many local fans have a good relationship with him, having also played for nearby Ashton United and Salford City before the founding of FC United.
"From Blackpool to FC United, from players to coaches, for 20 years, I have spent the best 20 years of my life in football, I am 49 years old this year, I will be 50 next year, I can't do it anymore, I just want to stay here for the second half of my life, stay on the red pitch, watch the Red Rebels win with them, Lu, can you help me make that happen?"
"No problem, Carl, I took over FC United from you, and I will definitely let the flag of the Red Rebels be planted on the top of the mountain."
After three rounds of drinking, some fans finally discovered this head coach who usually only meets on the training ground and the court.
"It's Lu, Coach Lu and Chairman Lu are here, Lu, good evening!"
"Lu, will we win the Premier League this season?"
In the hustle and bustle of the red bar, a group of fans asked Lu Wei with red faces.
"I'm sure we'll have one more thing in our trophy room at the end of the season."
"Hahaha, well said, guys, let's toast the big coach!"
The people in the bar raised their glasses into the air and slammed them violently, even if the wine foam spilled on their bodies, and they said that the Red Rebels would win the championship and win everything.
Lu Wei looked at this group of slightly drunk men, and remembered that ten years ago, when he was not the head coach of the team, they also unconditionally supported FC United as they are now, and unconditionally believed that FC United Man could overcome everything, this is the fans, this is football, fortunately, this cold winter has this bar, there are these fans.
