Chapter 351 The Eavesdropping Door

After the game against Chelsea, Ferguson had plenty of time to think about the future of Manchester United. ◢щЩш.suimEnG.1a While Manchester United is still clinging to Chelsea, Ferguson is thinking a little too far.

He is very clear about the need to strengthen in the winter, but he is just hesitant to deal with existing players and purchase players. Moreover, the players you want to buy cannot be bought. It is really not easy to buy good players in the transfer market now. First, there is not so much money to buy, but people are not willing to come.

He knows very well that Manchester United needs at least one or two midfielders, as well as a central defender and a full-back. If reinforcements can be made in the winter, it means Manchester United can continue to fight Chelsea. Once they are unable to strengthen in the winter, Manchester United is likely to fall behind early, and they can only watch Chelsea win the championship this year.

If such painful days last for three years, Ferguson's life will definitely be difficult. From 0304, to 0405, to 0506? Ferguson was unimaginable.

Sometimes, he even thought about retiring. But when I think about ending my time at Manchester United in this way, I feel quite unhappy...

He still has a dream, the dream of winning the championship!

Next is the national team match day. These two weeks have been relatively easy. The national teams from all over the world are basically playing friendly matches, and the remaining few are playing in the World Cup play-offs.

But as the England and Argentina national teams are about to face off in Geneva, it is not this World Cup warm-up match that dominates the headlines of major British newspapers, but the dispute between Manchester United and Chelsea.

The British media generally disclosed a shocking news that Manchester United officials are investigating the "wiretapping" incident that occurred at Old Trafford last week.

In the 12th round of the Premier League, Manchester United defeated Chelsea 1-0 at home. Someone secretly placed a bug in the dressing room of the home team Manchester United and recorded all the conversations in the Manchester United dressing room before the start of the game, halftime and after the end.

The Sun reports that an intermediary handed the tape to the Sun's editorial office, which promptly passed it on to Manchester United's press officer Townsend. Manchester United officials immediately launched an investigation last night, trying to find out the "thief" who planted the bug.

Manchester United press officer Townsend said: "We would like to thank the Sun and will launch an internal investigation within the club, and we will also ask the police to intervene in the matter."

It is said that before the start of the match between Manchester United and Chelsea, a mysterious man evaded all police and security blocks, entered the Manchester United dressing room and planted a radio bug, and then used a nearby radio to record all the conversations in the dressing room for more than two hours. content.

The Sun obtained the tapes through an intermediary.

The intermediary also revealed that eavesdroppers will also eavesdrop on Chelsea dressing room conversations during Chelsea's next Premier League game.

The team's locker room has always been regarded as a special "forbidden zone", and people rarely have the opportunity to learn the inside story of what happens there. The Sun was the first to report the incident, so they handed the tape to Manchester United's press officer Townsend on Friday night.

This matter immediately attracted great attention from the club, and they stated that they would investigate to the end to find out the culprit who engaged in this despicable act. At the same time, Townsend also expressed his gratitude to the "Sun": "We are very grateful to the "Sun" for its help. We will conduct strict inspections within the club for this kind of violation of privacy rights and security. If If necessary, we will also ask the police to intervene in the matter."

The British media generally analyzed that the mastermind of this incident evaded inspection by the police and club security personnel before last week's league game and installed the listening device in the players' locker room at Old Trafford. He then listened to conversations taking place in the dressing room through a nearby receiving device before and after the game, and recorded them at the same time. According to the information available to The Sun, the recording was recorded on two tapes.

As soon as this incident was exposed, it immediately caused a violent response in the UK. The relevant news did not appear in the sports pages as in the past, but was published on the front pages of many newspapers. In addition to condemning the eavesdroppers, people are more interested in the content of the relevant recordings, and the Sun also followed public opinion and made some disclosures about this.

In this tape, Ferguson made a passionate mobilization to the players before the game, asking them to fully enjoy the game. When Manchester United entered halftime with a one-goal lead, Ferguson first praised the players' performance in a thick Scottish accent. Then he asked other players to send the ball more to the feet of Dong Fangzhuo, a pair of forwards. When talking about his opponents, he asked special attention to restricting the opponent's Makelele, thinking that this player's passing in the midfield looked very threatening. In addition, Ferguson also reminded not to give Chelsea too many set-piece opportunities, because the opponent's Terry will often use these opportunities to complete header shots.

When the players returned to the locker room after the game, they celebrated together as the team ended their opponent's 40-game unbeaten league record. It can be felt from the tape that the morale of the Manchester United players was extremely high at that time, and they encouraged each other to continue to maintain this good momentum. Sylvester even shouted, "This victory will silence those damn critics." Afterwards, he also specifically praised the performance of teammates Smith and Dong Fangzhuo. At the same time, another teammate was asking Sylvester I specifically asked where I planned to go for fun that night.

However, these are not the point. The point is at the end of the recording. The quarrel between Keane and Ferguson was also included in the recording...

"The Sun" said: It seems that Keane will leave Manchester United soon, and there is no turning back.

Ferguson didn’t know whether to thank the Sun or scold the Sun.

They gave the tape to Manchester United, but they also exposed almost all of it.

The previous content doesn't matter, but exposing the content of his quarrel with Keane is nothing more than to attract maximum attention.

He and Keane did have a heated argument in the dressing room, with both sides almost ranting in tone.

The content of the dispute revolves around Keane's future, probably regarding his contract, weekly salary and team status...

Originally he thought there was room for negotiation with Keane, but now that the media has exposed it, he feels it is time for a showdown with Keane...

What he had considered before could become a reality at an accelerated pace.

To free up salary space, we can start with Keane...
