My name is Colani

Chapter 216 Ferguson

Manchester United also had scouts accompanying them. Ferguson had heard of Trapani, but after all, it was so far away and Trapani was a low-level team. Manchester United did not pay much attention to it. Trapani was able to be promoted three levels in a row. Ferguson believed that the team must have a star player, so he deliberately made up his mind to let the scouts follow to see if he could find some treasures in Trapani!

If Hugo knew about this, would he think he was letting a wolf into the house? !

On July 30, the friendly match between Manchester United and Trapani was held at the Trapani Stadium. The right to use this stadium was still in the hands of Trapani. Hugo's cheating uncle was not going to return the rental fee of Trapani. Hugo had no choice but to let the youth team set up their home here.

Zeman's starting lineup continued the same as last season. Deco left. Zeman used the Argentine teenager Belluschi in the attacking midfielder position, and Padoin and Meireles in the midfield.

Ronaldo did not start on the front line, but Simone Pepe and Luriga were used. Another winger Diamanti was loaned to Messina by Trapani on a friendly basis. The center position was naturally occupied by Toni.

On the defensive line, Bosingwa, Barzagli, Natali, and Grosso were lined up. They were the main soldiers on Trapani's defensive line last season. Evra and Maggio also played more frequently, but Zeman used them more flexibly, and sometimes let them play as wingers.

Trapani actually needs to do a lot of transfer work this summer. Toni has no substitute, and the winger position is not very sufficient. There is also a shortage of people in the midfielder position. In the past, Belluschi was mainly a substitute for Deco. Now during the training camp, Zeman has to teach him carefully. The club cannot get a suitable candidate in the new season, so Zeman has to reuse this young player, but Zeman himself told Hugo that he thinks Belluschi's qualifications are average and it is difficult to reach Deco's level.

Some people seem to be inconspicuous, such as Deco. It is difficult to find a replacement for him. Zeman knows that Trapani may not be able to get a suitable candidate this summer.

Manchester United sent all the new players to the field. Manchester United made several big moves this summer, including 28 million pounds to get Veron and 29.1 million pounds to get Rio Ferdinand. Ferguson was greatly stimulated by the failure of last season. He spent a lot of money to strengthen the team. This season, he obviously wants to do a big job.

Manchester United sent both new players to the field, and even other positions were the main players last season. Although it was a friendly match, Ferguson wanted to see how the ideal lineup in his mind would adapt.

Trapani Stadium was full again. Today's ticket price was not low. The black-hearted Hugo sold a ticket price of up to 50 euros. However, most fans came to see Beckham. To be honest, Trapani people are not so interested in Manchester United. They believe that Serie A is the best league, and the Serie A champion is the best team. Manchester United is not good enough.

However, Beckham has become a global idol-level star, and the people of Trapani are no exception to chasing stars. In the past few days, Manchester United's open training sessions at the Pacheco training base have made Trapani earn a lot of money. Beckham is a money-making stone.

When Beckham appeared on the field, the Trapani Stadium instantly burst into cheers and applause.

"I love you! Beckham!"

"You are so handsome!"

"Let me give you a son!"

...

Seeing the fans enthusiastically praising Beckham, Hugo said to Giorgio jealously: "Isn't it just handsome! I don't think it's useful! In the 1998 World Cup, if he hadn't received a red card, maybe England wouldn't have been eliminated!"

But soon Beckham told Hugo that I am not only handsome, but also a good player. Hugo has seen Beckham play, but not much. He is not a Premier League fan, so how can he pay so much attention.

Just 5 minutes into the game, Beckham's right cross accurately found Van Nistelrooy, who rushed to the top and penetrated the gate held by Kameni.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Beckham deserves 70% of the credit for this goal. The pass was so accurate that Beckham's arc just bypassed Natali and landed directly between Barzagli and Natali. All Van Nistelrooy had to do was rush up and head it.

Manchester United is still in the running-in period, but its overall strength is much higher than Trapani, and Trapani is also in the running-in period. Zeman is dealing with the sequelae of Deco's departure. The key is that this old guy has no intention of retreating when facing a strong enemy, and he directly confronts Manchester United.

This scene is very beautiful, but it is Manchester United that is beautiful. Manchester United likes such opponents. They are afraid that Trapani will shrink in defense. They didn't expect this to be a crazy team. In the first half, Manchester United smashed Trapani to pieces and scored 4 goals. If it weren't for Kameni's good performance, the score in the first half would not be this number!

"What the hell is this kick?!" Hugo couldn't believe his eyes. Trapani was not without its shining points. They had threatened Manchester United's goal before, but they never scored!

"Gigi, the opponent is Manchester United!" Giorgio said speechlessly. You have to bear the consequences of playing against them.

"Don't forget that we have defeated Milan before!" Hugo said.

"Our style is different now!" Giorgio argued again.

Hugo was speechless now. Yes, you still have to defend against strong teams. Could it be that Zeman's defense is so bad? !

"Losing is not a big deal! We still have to stick to our offensive style!" Hugo was silent for a while and said this, not sure whether to comfort himself or the senior officials watching the game together.

Guess what Zeman thought? !

Zeman said this to the players at halftime, "We should not be afraid of losing. Although it is already 4:0, I will not ask you to focus on defense. They are much stronger than us, but I hope that we should Score goals! Attack is our overall philosophy and we cannot give up on this principle!”

To put it bluntly, Zeman not only comforted everyone, but also asked everyone to continue attacking. If you are afraid of a goal, it doesn't matter if you lose more, as long as we can score!

The head coach did not blame the disciples. Everyone who was frightened by the score in the first half began to recover. Tony also said that we were afraid of the ball. We are barefoot and are not afraid of them wearing shoes. As long as everyone can follow Mr. Zeman’s ideas I can’t believe I can’t find the opportunity!

Ferguson will not beat Trapani to death. This is too disrespectful, and he also needs to let many substitutes play. In the end, this kind of friendly match is mainly for training!

In the second half, Ferguson made many personnel adjustments, and Zeman also replaced the two full-backs. Maggio replaced Bosingwa, Evra replaced Grosso, winger Lurri was added, and Zeman replaced Cristiano Ronaldo, who has perfect combination of man and ball, was put on the field. In the second half, this newborn calf was needed to attack Manchester United.

Maybe it was because they had changed a lot of players, but Manchester United's control was obviously not as strong as in the first half. Trapani had a wave of offensive climax at the beginning of the second half. Cristiano Ronaldo used his own tricks to beat Gary Neville. He was so shaken that he sent a diagonal pass. Toni missed it, and Pepe, who was in the back, followed up and fired a shot into the empty goal!

This goal greatly boosted the morale of the Trapani players. Manchester United's defense made another fatal mistake. Sylvester made a mistake in stopping the ball and it was intercepted by Simone Pepe. Pepe made a pass. Tony held on to Ferdinand, and at the first point, the ball was once again sent into the door of Carroll's handle!

Carroll could have attacked this ball earlier, but he hesitated. As a result, Ferdinand failed to hold Tony back, allowing Tony to take the lead!

Ferguson was furious on the sidelines, but just by changing a few people, Trapani, a Serie B team, scored two goals in a row. This is really unreasonable!

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance on the wing also made Ferguson's eyes shine. Ferguson was immediately tempted, "Who is this kid?!"

His assistant coach is Carlos Queiroz, who just switched to Manchester United this year and became Ferguson's assistant coach. A Portuguese, Ronaldo spent millions of dollars in Trapani when he was more than fourteen years old. It has already been leaked out, and Ronaldo has gradually gained some fame in Portugal.

"Cristiano Ronaldo! He made his debut at Sporting Lisbon. I heard that Trapani spent millions of dollars to sign him more than two years ago. He only joined Trapani this season!" Queiroz said. Ferguson explained.

"He is a very talented young man! I am very optimistic about him! He really has potential!" Ferguson has been a head coach for many years. There are times when he makes mistakes, but many times he does not make mistakes. He is so He said that he really felt that Ronaldo was a talent, and he fell in love with this little guy!

After saying a few words, Ferguson has focused his attention on directing the game. He started yelling on the sidelines and turned on the hair dryer mode. The Manchester United players woke up from a dream and cheered up. They first stabilized the defense and then Gradually, opportunities began to be found again. Manchester United's players were older than Trapani's players and had relatively strong psychological quality. Coupled with Sir Alex Ferguson's power, who dared not to work hard? !

One factor that makes a strong team strong cannot be ignored, and that is their ability to self-regulate very well. Trapani attacked fiercely in a short period of time. Manchester United can actively give up the offense and start from defense to stabilize the chaotic situation. Wait until it stabilizes and wait for the opportunity!

Trapani is obviously not an opponent that likes to rely on defense. Its defense is forced. Zeman is a stubborn person. He clearly knows that the team is likely to be suppressed again, but he still adopts extreme methods. Just let Trapani's continuous offense suppress Manchester United's offense, but how can this be done? !
