In the memory of Xiao Yu's previous life, Manchester United's move to withdraw from the FA Cup caused an uproar in England. Not only the famous Manchester United star Bobby Charlton came forward, hoping that Manchester United could reconsider the decision, even the British Prime Minister Blair also personally spoke to the media I hope that Manchester United can respect this historic event.

FIFA President Sepp Blatter even came forward to clarify, saying that there is absolutely no use of hosting the 2006 World Cup as a bargaining chip to force the FA to require Manchester United to participate in the first World Club Championship. He also hopes that Manchester United can find a way to get the best of both worlds, preferably Not only can participate in the FA Cup, but also can participate in the World Club Championship.

This soap opera has been staged in the UK and Europe for several months, and both sides have been looking for a solution, but in the end Manchester United still refused to participate in the FA Cup that year on the grounds that the competition was too frequent.

Manchester United's decision prompted the FA to announce in 2000 that the prize money for winning the FA Cup would be increased to £1 million, with the aim of increasing the attention of the rich teams to this event.

But now, completely different from Xiao Yu's memory, Manchester United has decided to participate in this competition.

After British Prime Minister Blair and Manchester United star Bobby Charlton came forward to coordinate, Manchester United held a meeting again on this matter and sent representatives to sit down with the FA to discuss it. In the end, the two sides found a peaceful solution.

Manchester United will participate in this year's FA Cup, but unlike the Premier League's direct participation in the third round, Manchester United will make an exception and be allowed to participate in the competition directly from the fourth round as the defending champion. Match schedule, adjust Manchester United's league and cup schedule appropriately.

In addition, the FA will also negotiate with Manchester United and various Premier League clubs on the application method of labor certification, and discuss with the Ministry of the Interior as soon as possible to discuss the possibility of introducing elite policies in the football field.

For the first decision, the Premier League and even other teams in the English professional league did not give much reaction. After all, Manchester United's glory of the Triple Crown last season cannot be ignored, and this behavior of the FA is very important in La Liga. It happened too.

Just last year, the Spanish Football Association allowed Real Madrid to participate in the domestic cup in order to allow Real Madrid to participate in the cup one round later than La Liga teams including Barcelona. As for the adjustment of the schedule, it is even more commonplace.

However, the latter decision caused an uproar in the entire English football world.

Not long ago, the British Minister of Sports publicly stated in the media that the UK should limit the number of foreign aid, because he cited a series of data from the Ministry of Finance showing that the transfer fees paid by the English league to introduce foreign players basically flowed into Switzerland Banks, which has him expressing concern about the prospects for the English league.

However, the sports minister's remarks were quickly opposed by the European Union, because the foreign aid he said referred to players from outside the UK, which obviously conflicted with the EU's integrated labor laws.

However, what is surprising is that not long after this matter has passed, the FA has begun to consider adding an elite policy to the application for a labor certification. The minister sang against the stage.

The FA headed by Kloseer has implemented an efficient style of work, just as he moved his office to Soho Square vigorously and resolutely decided to rebuild Wembley Stadium. The Ministry reached an agreement, and then invited football celebrities and the management of some wealthy clubs to a meeting.

And so, after a few days,

Thus was born the Special Genius Clause that was supposed to appear a few years later.

This clause is the same as what Xiao Yu remembered, it also requires a hearing, and it is also only allowed to be used once a year by a club, and it also needs to find a famous football player to testify.

When Xiao Yu received the fax from the FA, the club was in full swing preparing for the upcoming first round of the league.

Russtown Diamond has strengthened a lot this season and is known as the most popular team for promotion. As a recommended team, although the strength of the new Manchester United has improved a lot and they are playing at home, they are still not favored by the outside world. .

And when the club received the fax from the Football Association, Xiao Yu immediately called Bruce, Cassel and others over for a meeting.

"This is the announcement just faxed by the FA, you guys have a look first!" Xiao Yu copied the fax and sent it to Bruce and others.

Although the new Manchester United does not need a labor certificate for foreign players to participate in the National League, but to participate in the FA Cup, they must have a labor certificate, because it is an official game recognized by the FA, not an amateur league like the National League.

"I think that although our efforts this year are focused on the National League, there is no reason for us to give up such a spot. What do you think?" Xiao Yu asked after everyone had finished watching.

Everyone paid enough attention to this.

At present, there are many players in the first team of the club who need to apply for labor certification. Neo has the conditions to apply for a labor certificate. The former is a Polish international and basically meets the requirements of a labor certificate.

Juninho Jr. is rather special. He was selected for the Brazilian national team once in March this year. Ninho has a certain strength.

Because of this, the two players should have no problem applying for labor certification, and the first labor certification period will be the number of years of their signing contracts.

Olić has become a German son-in-law, and the club is currently preparing to apply for a second nationality for him. Once he gets German citizenship, he will not be considered a foreign aid. This matter is also of great benefit to Olić himself. So he himself agrees 100%.

Of the remaining three, Zikic, Hleb, and Essien are not currently eligible to apply for a labor certificate, but they are still young and can use this genius clause to apply for a labor certificate.

The talent clause used once a year is indeed not enough for the new Manchester United, but it is better than nothing. The only trouble is, who will be the first player to get the crab?

If you refer to the achievements of later generations, Xiao Yu naturally prefers Essien, but this player will go to the Ghana youth team training camp in two months, preparing to participate in the U17 World Junior Championships in New Zealand in November, and he is currently in The club can't be the main force yet.

As for Zikic and Hleb, who to choose depends on Bruce's choice.

"Hleb!" Bruce thought for a moment.

Cassel on the side listened and nodded constantly, "Yes, we have a lot of players on the forward line. Zikic and Olic will both play the main force in the league, so it doesn't seem that they can play in the FA Cup." It’s more important, but it’s Hleb, Darren Lyons’ physical strength is definitely not enough to support him in multi-line combat, so Hleb has become our best choice.”

"In that case, it's Hleb, and I'll also send the labor certification applications of Krzynovic and Juninho Jr., obviously, Andy, you're going to London again. As for the hearing As a witness to the meeting, I would like to pay a visit to Sir Bobby Charlton, he should be willing to do our club a favor!"

Speaking of the old man who always had a kind smile on his face, Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing too.

After finalizing this matter, the new Manchester United immediately started to make arrangements.

Xiao Yu first approached Hleb and asked him to collect the videotapes of the league games he played in Belarus, as well as the evaluations of the team coach and the media when he played in Belarus. According to a newspaper report, scouts from Stuttgart in the Bundesliga attended and paid attention to him, which can also be indirect evidence that Hleb applied for the special talent clause.

While collecting evidence, Xiao Yu paid a visit to Sir Bobby Charlton, and told him about his plans to apply for special talent clauses for Hleb, and the latter immediately expressed his willingness to help.

After all the materials were prepared, the new Manchester United was immediately sent to the FA together with the materials of Krzynovic and Juninho Jr., and the latter also gave an answer immediately, and it was finalized on August 11, which is England. The hearing was held on the second day of the second round of the National League.

On the morning of August 7th, the blue sky was cloudless. For the British Isles, this is definitely a rare good weather.

Waking up in the morning, walking outside the balcony, feeling the warmth of the sun shining on the body, the whole body is warm and comfortable.

At three o'clock sharp this afternoon, the new Manchester United's home game against the Russtown Diamonds will be held at Giger Lane Stadium in Bury. This is the first game of the new Manchester United in the National League.

Russton Diamonds is a strong team. There is no need to explain this, but the new Manchester United has invested a lot this year, and its strength has improved a lot. The performance on the court, and the head coach's strategizing off the court.

"Hey, are you confident in this afternoon's game?" Scarlett's voice came from upstairs.

Xiao Yu raised his head, and saw a beautiful woman in pure white pajamas bathed in golden sunlight. He smiled, "If I say I have confidence, do you think I'm arrogant?"

"You're already arrogant, okay?" Scarlett curled her lips.

Xiao Yu laughed loudly, "Then let me tell you, we are very confident in this match!"

Seeing Scarlett's expression of distrust, Xiao Yu suddenly became excited, and asked again: "Why don't we bet again?"

When Scarlett remembered the bet back then, she had been playing a rogue all the time to get away with it. How dare she bet with him again now, her face flushed, "Who would be so leisurely as to bet with you? It's boring!"

Then walked back into the room.

Xiao Yu withdrew his gaze, but the smile on his face quickly subsided.

In fact, like all fans outside, he is very concerned about this game, because although the new Manchester United has introduced many future stars, the National League is no more than an amateur team, and no team can easily deal with it!

Big names such as the Galaxy Battleship Real Madrid, didn't they also beat the Alconco team in the Spanish C-League 4:0?

Sometimes it's so strange on the football field, you can never use common sense to guess!

And that's part of the charm of football!
