"I apologize to the fans on behalf of the team. We should have played a beautiful game, but the result was a disgraceful defeat..."

"Now, we can only clean up our mood and focus on the Premier League and the FA Cup..."

At the press conference, Ferguson apologized to the fans on behalf of the team, with a sad expression on his face.

But why does the old man need to apologize?

His heart hurts more than anyone.

No player does not work **** the court, everyone wants to win this game, but Dong Fangzhuo's end makes everything different, Barcelona makes the mentality of Manchester United players collapse.

Otherwise, Manchester United will not lose a 1:4, even if it is a tie, it should be, but the result is so...

Manchester United rushed back to Manchester overnight and did not stay in Barcelona. It was four o'clock in the morning when returning to the airport, but there were actually Manchester United fans waiting there.

Hundreds of Manchester United fans stayed there, basically all young fans, and it seems that they still did not accept the fact that the team suffered a fiasco...

※※※※

Dong Fangzhuo went to the local hospital for a check overnight, and finally concluded that the chest soft tissue was contused. The problem is not serious, but the doctor recommends taking at least a week off to more than two weeks.

However, Manchester United will fight at Stamford Bridge on the weekend!

Ferguson, who received the news for the first time, fell into silence. In the two most critical battles, Dong Fangzhuo was injured. This is so unreasonable.

"It's not a serious injury, is it?" He still wanted Dong Fangzhuo to play when he challenged Chelsea away.

But that night he gave Dong Fangzhuo leave, let him rest until Saturday.

But the day after dawn, the national team Zhu Heyuan called Dong Fangzhuo and asked Dong Fangzhuo to report the injury truthfully without any concealment. The Chinese team is about to go to the 2006 World Cup in Germany, and Dong Fangzhuo must not miss a bit.

Then Dong Fangzhuo told the truth, Zhu Heyuan told Dong Fangzhuo not to play in Sunday's game, so as to avoid further injury.

Immediately afterwards, the English media reported the news of Manchester United's defeat of Camp Nou, and began to settle accounts for Manchester United.

Naturally, there will be a lot of criticism, and the Times said bluntly: "After the Manchester United captain got injured, Manchester United lost its core. Although Rooney reached the top, he could not become a person like Dong, and Ronaldo also lost. In the direction of the effort, Giggs, who has not played the left winger for a long time, has not played his due role. Although his strength is weaker than Barcelona, ​​the most important thing is that his mentality collapsed. When Barcelona continued to press, they finally couldn’t withstand. Now."

"The fiasco is not terrible, as long as you stand up again. What will happen if Dong doesn't get injured? We don't know, the only thing that can be confirmed is that Dong is an indispensable soul character for Manchester United. Of course, Ferguson should consider it carefully. In the absence of the game, what is his plan B, can ensure that the team can continue to operate normally, otherwise Dong will be injured again next year..."

"Daily Mail" hit the team mentality: "Manchester United suffered a terrible failure. For a long time, Ferguson attached to the 433 formation. My hunch became a reality. This was a disaster. The team had no excitement after Dong came off the court. In other words, Manchester United may not have thought of such a match at all. Rooney has a huge value and it is simply embarrassing."

"Manchester Evening News" column reporter James pointed his finger at the defense. He wrote: "Manchester United was not defeated by Ronaldinho, but because of his defensive mentality leading to a disastrous defeat. The first goal drop is not tight. There was no early foul; the second foul gave Ronaldinho a foul when it should not be fouled. The third lost the ball completely out of mind, and the fourth was Messi’s personal performance. Manchester United always remembered the past The key game they completed was reversed, and they never thought about how to play when they had a good game."

When it comes to defense, there is naturally an issue of offense.

Reporter Fernando Paul pointed his finger at the offensive. He wrote: "After the disaster, there were a lot of outstanding problems. What I want to say is why Manchester United can't break Barcelona's goal. We can't see the morale when fighting AC Milan last year. . As long as you score another goal in Barcelona, ​​the situation is completely different. Rooney did not show his characteristics. Why did Ronaldo look so tired today. Can Carrick control the team."

Reporter Domenech Garcia put his perspective on the team’s championship goal, he wrote: "After the game, Manchester United people are saying they will focus on the Premier League and the FA Cup (Ferguson and Manchester United chief executive both said afterwards But I want to say the following. I believe many people share the same view as me. The Premier League and the FA Cup are not shameless cloths. We don’t want an ordinary strong team. We don’t want a team that can only take domestic championships. And they may not be able to get it."

A group of male journalists were angered by Manchester United’s disastrous defeat. “Daily Mirror” female reporter Monica Pranas rushed over to warm up the scene and wrote in her column: “Everyone is dead, Everyone loses at Manchester United~lightnovelpub.net~ But life has to go on, sports are not just football. Let's watch the 2006 MotoGP International Motorcycle Race with me, it is also very exciting here!"

In Zhu Heyuan's words, Dong Fangzhuo should be considered carefully, but he still doesn't want to miss the game. If there is no pain or only a little pain on the day of the game, he hopes to start.

Without the Champions League, he did not want to be able to fight with Chelsea. If he lost to Chelsea again, then Manchester United will be too miserable this season, no one can accept it, especially Manchester United fans.

He saw all the reports in the media newspapers. Except for not scolding him, everyone else was scolded.

Three days later, Dong Fangzhuo returned to the training ground, but did not participate in the team's joint training, just jogging on the court alone, and training in the gym.

At noon, he knocked on the door of Ferguson's office.

"Boss."

"Dong?"

"How is your body recovering?"

"Excellent." Dong Fangzhuo gave a heavy blow to his chest, demonstrating his good health to the Lord.

"Waldfack, don't mess up." Ferguson looked at him suspiciously with cold sweat.

"I know you are eager to fight, but it is subject to the team doctor's inspection report. If you meet the playing conditions, I will consider it carefully."

Soft tissue contusion is not a serious injury. It was difficult to persevere on the court at the time, but if it recovered well a few days later, the problem would not be a big deal. In order to make himself recover faster, he used Chinese herbal medicine, cold compress and hot compress, which made him feel better.

Ferguson naturally wanted Dong Fangzhuo to play against Chelsea as long as conditions allowed.

"I have checked, the team doctor thinks there is no problem, he will send you the report later."

"Really?"
