Chapter 215 The Most Expensive Defender 2

"Watch him, don't let him take the ball!" Captain Roy on the field. Keane shouted at his teammates, and Ferdinand next to him also kept wandering beside Don Jack at the right time.

Leo. Ferdinand is the most expensive defender in England.

In 1992, Leo was only 14 years old. Ferdinand entered the youth team from West Ham United's football school. At first, he played as an avant-garde. Later, he played as a central defender because he was not used to it. On May 5, 1996, Ferdinand played for the team for the first time against West Wednesday, and then borrowed Burnley for two months.

In West Ham United, Leo. Ferdinand played 158 games and scored two goals. His performance during this period shocked all over Europe. The most important thing is that Ferdinand basically made no small mistakes, and his physical strength made him show a world-class level in both cross-defense and one-to-one defense in the team.

This alone is enough to greatly increase Ferdinand's value.

It is impossible for West Ham United to retain such a good player. On November 26, 2000, Ferdinand joined Leeds United for 18 million pounds, breaking the record for the highest transfer fee in England at that time.

In the early days, Ferdinand did not adapt to Leeds United at the beginning, but Ferdinand's steady performance still made the team reach the semi-finals of the European Champions League. In the second year, the team's performance was poor, and Ferdinand still performed well. He was selected for the national team to play in the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea. Because of his excellent performance, he finally attracted the attention of the world. On July 22, Ferdinand joined Manchester United for 30 million pounds, the world's highest defender.

Unfortunately, talented football players may have some personality defects...

In 2003, Ferdinand was banned worldwide for nearly a year and a half by FIFA for his absence from a "urine test" after a game... It was not until this game that Ferdinand's suspension had just ended. For a long time in the past, Ferdinand had been the 'image ambassador' of Manchester United. From today on, the job has finally gone away from him.

This is fortunate.

Although this intense game is not suitable for Ferdinand's comeback, he still wants to prove his value with a good performance. He keeps an eye on Don Jack.

This brunette boy was personally told by the head coach Sir Ferguson to defend carefully before the game. Ferdinand also thought that this boy was not strange, but the shot just now told him that this boy was very dangerous, so Ferdinand changed his decision. He wanted to completely block Don Jack, so with Liverpool The strength of his players will be very difficult to really break Manchester United's goal, right?

This is the conclusion that Ferguson has studied for a long time.

So, in the next time, Don Jack found that the star guard opposite Manchester United was always 'entangled' around him. He had limited opportunities to catch the ball, but now with this guy's defense, there are fewer chances to catch the ball... He feels very depressed. Even Rooney will play better than himself now?

At least, that guy will not encounter a defense like Liverpool, and he has become a thorn in the side's side.

But in fact, the match between the two teams at the scene has become very tense. After the end of the test attack, the Manchester United players seemed to feel that they had penetrated the rhythm of Liverpool, so they launched a fierce offensive. Under this offensive, Liverpool's defense looks very fragile. Fortunately, Gerrard informed everyone of the retreat in time, so that Manchester United did not find a good opportunity.

This scene made the head coaches of both teams have some ideas.

Ferguson is quite envious of Liverpool's ability to have such a top midfielder to lead the overall situation. He has always wanted to get Gerrard, but the latter has no interest in Manchester United at all, and it is also aimed at Chelsea without looking at the rumors that Gerrard is going to transfer. Benitez, on the contrary, is lamenting the strength of Manchester United's attack.

In the first few games of this season, Manchester United played a mess, but now Manchester United is not like a messy team. This is completely the offensive ability of a top team. If Manchester United had such a performance at the beginning, the league competition may be more fierce now.

However, what Benitez doesn't know is that this is actually Leo. The results of Ferdinand's efforts.

Previously, Manchester United's defense was very fragile, with a limited number of main defenders, and its state was also a mess, among which Gary. Neville, Phil. Neville often makes low-level mistakes, which makes Manchester United's forward players afraid to attack too forward.

Now Ferdinand, who is in charge of the defense, is back!

Their defense is guaranteed, and the attack is of course much more open, and this is the game at Old Trafford. In front of these many fans, every Manchester United player is a little excited. They desperately want to exert their strength to prove that Manchester United is still the triple champion Manchester United, not As the reporter said, 'The Manchester United dynasty has completely collapsed'.

However, Benitez smiled at the corners of his mouth, but looked at the front court, where the black-haired boy still seemed to be running aimlessly: "Attack? Will Liverpool lose to Manchester United? ※※※ At this time, on the court, with the retreat of Liverpool's formation, Manchester United's several unfavorable offensive situations also slightly relaxed the rhythm. In this way, both sides have become offensive and defensive, and the game scene is very beautiful for a while.

Liverpool's attack is more reflected in the middle road. Gerard's pass, Carragher's insertion assists, and the support of Alonso and two side players make Liverpool play well on the middle road. However, Manchester United's defense is also very tight. Under the command of Ferdinand, Manchester United's backcourt is in order, and it is not easy for Liverpool to seize the opportunity.

And Manchester United's attack is reflected on the sidelines.

Manchester United's left and right forwards are extremely gorgeous. Giggs, the king of the left wing, is the captain of Manchester United's 1992 golden generation. There is no need to doubt the strength of this Scottish player. As Manchester United's left-back, although Giggs has declined with age, he still sits firmly in the main position. His game experience Testing is an indispensable thing for Manchester United.

On the right is the Portuguese new generation star Cristiano. Ronaldo.

In a season at Manchester United, Ronaldo has grown into the first star of Manchester United. It is said that in the summer, Real Madrid issued an expensive check of 47 million euros to buy Ronaldo, but it was still directly rejected by Manchester United. Their statement is that 'Ronaldo is not for sale', but everyone knows Dao, there is nothing non-sale in the football industry. Obviously, Manchester United feels that Ronaldo's value has not reached the expected height. They will not sell players during the rising price of players, which is definitely not worth the loss.

From this value, we can see some Ronaldo's strength.

In fact, when he first came to Manchester United, Ronaldo was very uncomfortable. With the heritage of Portuguese football, he likes to play with his skills on the court, but this will become the reason why Ferguson scolds him. Now Ronaldo is much more mature, and he has become a failure of Manchester United. The composition of the division, and his delicate foot skills, especially his running speed, make the opponent feel hot.

The attack of Manchester United under the leadership of the two wingers is generally launched from the sidelines. Under such an offensive, Liverpool's defense is also very sad. It is difficult for them to really close to Manchester United's offensive.

During this period, the two teams seemed to be in a stalemate.
