Chapter 840 Owen's "unreconciled"
Regarding giving up his jersey number, although Owen was very calm and cooperative, but from the bottom of his heart, he was somewhat unwilling.
In any case, Owen is a very powerful superstar player. He has achieved good results in Liverpool, Real Madrid, and even the England national team, and his influence and audience rate in football are also great. very high.
Manchester United's No. [-] is a very legendary and glorious number, and Irving thinks it is not a disgrace to wear it.
But the reality is like this. After leaving Real Madrid and returning to the Premier League, with the gradual increase in age and injuries, his competitive state is no longer at the peak, and when a more important player comes, he can only give up his position—— —Even if he refuses to let him go, the club will not force him, but after years of ups and downs in football, Owen sees some things clearly, there is no need to plant a nail between himself and the club, and now he Always get hurt from time to time, in this case, holding the best number is not a problem.
Owen agreed to the club's request, but he couldn't have any good senses for Fan Bizhuang who robbed his number when he came here. It is impossible for Owen to take things away by himself without lumps.
Of course, there is no resentment, especially after being in contact with Fan Bizhuang during this period of time, and knowing that it was not Fan Bizhuang who took the initiative to ask for the No. [-] jersey, Owen's attitude gradually changed.
I have to say that his mentality has been adjusted very quickly. A new generation replaces an old one. This is a perfectly normal theorem on the football field.Owen has not reached the point where he can't play, but he has to admit that Fan Bizhuang is indeed a better young man, so he thought about it. When his career is gradually entering the end, it is really true. There is no need to compete with a young man who is on the rise. The most valuable thing for a person is to see himself clearly and give himself a clear position. Owen is very clear that Fan Bizhuang is Manchester United's investment in the future team construction. Destined to be Manchester United's mainstay for many years to come.
Owen doesn't want to fight anymore, and now he is past the age to fight.
But this does not mean that he is getting old, he also wants to continue to play his remaining heat in the last few years of his career, so he performed very hard in this game, which is not only a way to express that he is still capable in the future Attitude is also a "demonstration" to Fan Bizhuang-you are outstanding, I admit this, but I am not useless, I will tell you with practical actions, if your performance is not worthy of the No. If you mind, you will take back the jersey that belongs to me.
It doesn't matter whether the relationship between him and Fan Bizhuang is close or not, it's just a competition.
Irving celebrated loudly as he ran with his arms outstretched, his eyes on the team's bench.
Fan Bizhuang felt Owen's hot eyes, and was stunned for a moment, and also felt the meaning conveyed by Owen's eyes.
Fan Bizhuang's mood is a bit complicated. Before he made his official debut, Irving was already a big star on the pitch. Fan Bizhuang liked this England's golden boy very much, and even once regarded him as his own. After all, Owen was extremely fast when he was young, and Fan Bizhuang's speed is also very fast. It is inevitable that the two have some things in common.He never thought that one day I would play for the same club as the player I like very much and become comrades in arms fighting side by side.
During this period of contact, whether in training or in private, Owen has given him a lot of help. Fan Bizhuang is very grateful for this, and the relationship between the two has gradually become familiar and close.Originally, Fan Bizhuang thought that the matter of giving up his jersey number was over, but he didn't expect that at this moment, he felt the reluctance in the opponent's eyes, which made Fan Bizhuang feel a little guilty, especially after seeing the "23" on Owen's back , he even shook his head with a wry smile.
Although he is the most valuable Manchester United club in history and is now popular all over the world, in the final analysis, he is just a newcomer at Old Trafford. Owen is different. He has stayed here for a few years. He has made a lot of contributions to Manchester United. At the same time, Owen's reputation and influence are also great. In Fan Bizhuang's opinion, the No. [-] jersey is more suitable to stay in Owen's hands.
Maybe he will wear this legendary jersey in the future, but it is obviously not a good time to be a newcomer.
But since all this had already happened, Fan Bizhuang was not a hypocritical person, so he naturally accepted it.
"Michael is still unwilling."
Gary Neville sighed beside him. He also saw Owen's fiery eyes. This was more like a "challenge declaration". Pat Fan Bizhuang on the shoulder.
For Neville's encouragement and comfort, Fan Bizhuang was silent for a while, then nodded with a smile: "I will not give up this jersey again, I will tell Michael, don't worry about it when it is in my hands, It will once again bloom with legendary light in my hands."
The words were addressed to Neville, but his eyes were looking at Owen who was not far away. Owen also felt Fan Bizhuang's determination. The two looked at each other and smiled. Owen waved his hand, turned and ran back court.
"Come on, Fan!"
"You're not old, Michael."
Both Owen and Fan Bizhuang were encouraging each other in their hearts. Sometimes the relationship between men is so simple. The time of acquaintance may not be long, but the depth of friendship is far from being bridged by time.
This pair of "comrades" who are seven or eight years apart in age couldn't help feeling a little bit of sympathy for each other.
……
Those who felt Owen's reluctance were not only Fan Bizhuang, but Ferguson, who was standing on the sidelines, also fell silent suddenly.
He suddenly remembered the past many years ago. The young boy in the red jersey turned out to be out of nowhere. He used his wind-like speed to tear apart the opponent's defense time and time again. The team keeps winning.
Owen, although he is wearing a red jersey, does not belong to Manchester United. He is a member of Manchester United's arch-enemy Liverpool.
The golden boy of England has suffered enough for Ferguson's team. In many duels, Manchester United's team has been broken by him.
Back then, Ferguson gritted his teeth with hatred for Owen, but he couldn't hide his appreciation. Therefore, after having the opportunity, Ferguson threw an olive branch to the other party without hesitation and brought Owen to the Theater of Dreams.
Many Manchester United fans did not understand and were very angry about Ferguson's move to hand over the Manchester United No. [-] jersey to Owen. Aggrieved.
But Ferguson still did this, and in the past few years, Irving's state has been up and down, and he has often suffered from injuries. His performance has not met Ferguson's expectations, but in any case, in many cases, the body Owen, who is in good condition, can still score goals for the Red Devils, and he still made his own contribution to the team.
But now...he tried his best to hand over the No. [-] jersey to Irving, and now, he took the No. [-] jersey away with his own hands and gave it to another player, which seemed extraordinarily cruel.
For Owen, Ferguson also has a sense of guilt in his heart, but he does not regret it, because this is football, because he is the head coach of Manchester United, and everything he does is to make his club stronger and more competitive .
Seeing Irving standing quietly on the edge of the court, with the number "23" behind him, Ferguson felt sore for no reason.
"Sorry, Michael."
Ferguson murmured in his heart.
He suddenly lost his interest in celebrating the goal. When Owen scored the first goal, he got carried away and ran to Ancelotti, but at this moment, he didn't move at all, just stood there with complicated eyes. land.
This made Ancelotti on the other side a little baffled. In order to avoid Ferguson's proud show off, he had already hid in the coach ceiling. As a result, Ferguson couldn't come over at all. Ancelotti looked depressed—well, What a waste of time my actions were.
……
A two-goal lead can almost declare that Manchester United has achieved an unshakable advantage in this game. Players on both sides are very clear that although there is at least half of the game time left, it is difficult for Chelsea to recover.
But the game is not over after all, and has to continue.
The score in the first half was kept at 2:0. Manchester United originally wanted to continue to pursue the victory, but Chelsea's defense was still tight, and there was not much time left in the first half, and Manchester United did not find a good chance to score again. .
The intermission time also passed quickly. After a short rest, the two teams returned to the court. After exchanging venues, the game continued.
Perhaps because of adjustments in the locker room, Chelsea's performance in the second half was much better, and the scene was no longer completely passive.
For more than ten minutes in a row, Chelsea advanced the line and launched a counterattack. Their tactical policy was simple and straightforward, which was to quickly pass through the midfield, hit the opponent's hinterland, and then hang the ball vigorously into the penalty area.Several of Chelsea's offensive players are representative figures of physical strength, with good impact and aerial ability. Such a rough style of play has allowed them to get a lot of shooting opportunities.
But Manchester United's defense is not a vegetarian, coupled with Van der Sar's left and right blocks, Chelsea's repeated offensives have all failed.
While defending solidly, Manchester United did not slack off on offense. Chelsea pulled out to attack, and they couldn't wish for it. Anyway, with two goals in hand, the Manchester United players did not panic, and they fought against their opponents. A confrontation battle was staged, the pace of the game was extremely fast, and the scene was exciting and lively.
