Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

"Sir Alex Ferguson?"

"That's right, it's him, it won't be wrong, I don't know what he is looking for you, do you want to contact him, I will give him your phone if you can."

After a few seconds of silence, Lu Wei agreed to Sir Alex Ferguson's invitation to call.

On the other hand, Walsh did not reply to Ferguson immediately after getting Lu Wei's permission, but looked at the trophy model on the table and pondered for a long time before dialing the phone and telling Sir Alex Ferguson a series of phone numbers, never asking Ferguson what he was going to do with Lu Wei. First of all, Ferguson has retired, this time not as Manchester United manager, but as a friend, and Walsh and Lu Wei have already guessed some of Ferguson's purpose, so Walsh has some worries, he does not want FC United to lose their captain when they start sailing to sea.

At this time, Lu Wei and Barbara had left the Venetian special boat gondola and walked to a café near Piazza San Marco, waiting for Sir Alex Ferguson's call.

Barbara looked at her silent boyfriend and couldn't help but ask, "Lu, what are you thinking?" Is it because Ferguson's call makes you nervous, but also Ferguson, the legendary godfather of Manchester United, it is not an exaggeration to call him the first manager in history, but what is he looking for you for, isn't he already retired? It won't be to take you as an apprentice.

Lu Wei moved his gaze from the coffee in his hand to his girlfriend's face, showed a sunny smile, pinched his girlfriend's face and said, "I won't be his apprentice, and I can roughly guess what he is looking for me for." Before

the words fell, Lu Wei's mobile phone rang, and Lu Wei picked it up and understood when he saw that it was not a known contact. Hey, hello, Sir Alex Ferguson.

An older voice came from the other side of the phone: "How are you so sure that it is me who is calling?"

"Because you've not already answered me, you're you."

"Your sneer is not funny at all, lad."

"I wish you a happy retirement, Sir Alex Ferguson, and I haven't congratulated you on winning the Premier League again, but I was there that day and I regret not going to ask you for a picture."

"The opportunity to take a group photo is that you are a great manager, I have seen the performance of FC United in recent years, it is really great that you can achieve such results, and congratulations on really entering the professional league."

"Wherever, thanks to the hard work of the players on the pitch and the support of the fans, we are still far from Manchester United, and we have not had the opportunity to play against you in recent years." Lu Wei said while tapping the handle of the coffee cup.

"Then you have a chance to close this gap, are you interested."

Lu Wei said and stopped the movement in his hand, "Sorry, Sir Alex Ferguson, I still prefer the feeling of watching Manchester United in the stands at Old Trafford, but I may not watch Manchester United games from the stands in the future, one of my dreams is to make FC United stand in the Premier League, just like you did in Aberdeen, breaking the pattern and making history."

"Is it? That's a shame, I'm really optimistic about you.

"I also think it's a pity, Sir, it's the biggest regret of my life not to play against you on the court, but you don't have to worry about Old Trafford, I think David is also good, I will communicate with him in the future, I wish you a happy retirement."

"Have a nice holiday too, Lu, nice to meet you, goodbye."

After a few simple words, Lu Wei breathed a long sigh of relief and waited for the hanging up of the opposite phone, while Barbara listened beside him confused, "Ferguson called you in such a hurry to find you just to chat with you?"

"Of course not." Lu Wei does not blame Barbara for not understanding, in just a few sentences, although Lu Wei and Ferguson did not say it explicitly, but insinuated a lot of information, Lu Wei also patiently explained to Barbara why Ferguson was looking for him.

Ferguson retired, Manchester United needs a new manager, and Lu Wei, who has led FC United to complete the league quadruple jump in the past two years under Manchester's nose, has long entered the sight of Manchester United, Ferguson this call is to ask Lu Wei whether he has the intention to go to Manchester United as a coach, in Ferguson's cognition, Lu Wei is a loyal Manchester United fan, but betrayed Manchester United to establish FC United with Walsh, yes, Ferguson has always disliked the existence of FC United, So I was surprised to hear that FC United has entered the professional league, and also learned about the existence of Lu Wei, admired the achievements made by Lu Wei, and is still very young, if Manchester United needs a new Ferguson, Lu Wei is also a better candidate, it stands to reason that as a Manchester United fan, still in the League Two team, the invitation from Manchester United should not refuse, but Lu Wei refused, and said that he would take FC United to defeat Manchester United in the Premier League in the future, which made Ferguson more annoyed for a while, However, Ferguson also admires Lu Wei, not everyone can be so humble when facing themselves, and he is also very well-informed, and knows that Manchester United have contacted David. As the team's new head coach, Moyes did not continue to discuss the topic more.

Barbara, who knew the truth, was surprised, but did not expect that her boyfriend refused Manchester United's invitation, that is Manchester United, one of the most successful clubs in 20 years, won 13 Premier League titles in 20 years, such a team actually invited Lu Wei to be the head coach, and he even refused, Barbara temporarily wondered if Lu Wei had a fever. Lu Wei smiled, did not explain much, and took Barbara to continue their journey, but Lu Wei thought about what Barbara would never understand, that is, a person's love and loyalty to the team.

The holiday belonging to the two soon ended, Barbara went to the United States to continue her work, Lu Wei also returned to England to start his own poaching, since Manchester United want to recruit me to be a coach, then I will first recruit some of your coaches.

Lu Wei returned to England and immediately hired goalkeeper Craig, who had just retired from Hayden. Mawson came to the team as a goalkeeper coach and found former Blackburn tactical analyst Paul Smith who was idle at home. Brand, after showing his tactical concept and the club's hardware facilities, agreed to assist Lu Wei. There is also his own junior brother Eric at the University of Birmingham. Ramsay and Tommy. Martin, the two joined the U18 coaching staff to assist Nikki. Bart's work.

These are all future figures in the Manchester United coaching staff, and they are not David. Members of the coaching staff of David Moyes, Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho, who chose to join FC United with Lu Wei's salary lure and FC United's development prospects far above the development prospects of League Two, chose to join FC United to add thickness to the coaching staff. At this point, FC United's coaching team has just taken shape, the first team is currently in addition to Lu Wei, the head coach, there are two assistant coaches such as Sur and Chadwick, six tactical coaches, three goalkeeper coaches, four fitness coaches, four tactical analysts, as many as 20 first-team coaches are already the standard of Premier League teams, but Chadwick has just retired as a coach, more responsible for communicating with the players, Sur is also older, gradually can not meet the professional team training, Now Lu Wei still needs to find a qualified assistant coach.

Originally, Lu Wei wanted to ask Delap if there was a suitable candidate, but Sir Alex Ferguson's phone alert him that Ferguson's assistant Mike Ferguson was a good candidate. Ferran also left the team after Ferguson's retirement, and in Lu Wei's memory, Ferran was not invited out of the mountain by Norwich until the end of 14. Lu Wei immediately asked Walsh to contact Mike. Ferran, however, was initially very flatly willing to refuse FC United's offer, "I have been working with Alex for almost 20 years and I want to leave football for a while. "

Of course, Lu Wei is not willing to lose such an excellent assistant coach" Mr. Ferran, you have always been a person I respect, I think it is a pity that the football world has lost you, you are just 50 years old, for the prime of a coach, and you know, I have only been a coach for three years, FC United has just entered the professional league this year, we need your experience to guide us, you have a lot to learn, and you don't have to leave ManchesterOur home stadium will be covered next year, and it's not very far from your home, and I implore you to think again. "

Okay, give me a few days and I'll get back to you before your team assembles."

Contacted Mike. Ferran, Lu Wei is not completely relieved, first, Phelan did not directly agree, and second, Ferran is only two years younger than Sur, sooner or later he will retire, and Lu Wei knows that in the future, when Ferran is the manager of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he was invited back to Manchester United to assist in the work, and Lu Wei did not dare to guarantee whether the same thing would happen in the future, so Lu Wei set his sights on potential stocks.
