Chapter 131 Cole is a Good Comrade

After Manchester United scored, the Nottingham Forest players squeezed out the last bit of their physical fitness and finally prevented them from scoring again.

After the game, almost all the media felt that Manchester United needed a center forward. Cole's performance with 14 goals in 3 games proved that his state was surprisingly poor.

Among Manchester United's frontcourt players, Scholes, Beckham and Giggs all scored more goals than him. Cantona, who has not yet adjusted to his best form, has caught up with him in goals. Even McClair, who has few opportunities to play, scored 4 goals.

Embarrassment is the word that perfectly describes his situation.

Cole's games in these games have already caused dissatisfaction among his teammates. He missed two excellent opportunities against Arsenal, and was completely lost in confidence by the opponent's goalkeeper in the game against Nottingham Forest.

The teammates saw it, and felt a little bit resigned in their hearts.

When the team is going smoothly, it's fine for him to shoot wild shots. Recently, the team has encountered tough bones one after another. Not only has he not had any achievements, but he has almost lost his fighting spirit, which makes everyone a little unhappy.

Not only did Beckham fail to pass the ball to him at the last moment, but other midfielders tried to avoid passing the ball to his feet in the last few minutes. This kid is really wasting opportunities.

But Ferguson was a little displeased. In the locker room, he briefly brought up the matter of the game against Nottingham Forest, and warned the whole team without naming names about the players not passing the ball to Cole: "Who gave you the right not to pass the ball to your teammates. Let me tell you, it's not up to you to make decisions for me.

If I find someone deliberately not passing the ball to his teammates in the next game, I will put him in the reserve team. "

The old hair was soaring, and all the players in the locker room hurriedly stated that they would unite and help their teammates, and strive for the prosperity of the club.

The first thing Beckham did when he came home after the game was to ask John Sr. about Cole.

Let's see what kind of quality this guy is. If history proves that this guy is a parallel importer, he didn't stay in the Manchester United team for long, and his career didn't make much progress. No matter how the old man warned him, I still wouldn't pass the ball to him.

It stands to reason that Andy Cole should not be bad. Although for the position of a center forward, he is as tall as Gary Neville, which is a bit embarrassing, but he wins because of his balanced ability. Among all the indicators that can be used to measure a forward, his ability is above the standard.

As the former top scorer in the Premier League, Cole still has works.

In the 1993-1994 season, he was still playing for Newcastle United. That season he played 40 times and scored a total of 34 goals. The scoring efficiency is not low.

Although there were 24 teams in the Premier League that season, and there were 8 more games in one season, even if the number of goals he scored was scaled according to the current number of games, the number of goals in the season was still quite a lot, and he still had works.

But since he moved to Manchester United, his scoring efficiency has been unsatisfactory, scoring 12 goals last season.

Judging from the current scoring efficiency, it is thankful that he can score 10 goals this season.

The reason why Beckham wanted to ask Old John was because Cole did not look like a person who could become an excellent striker in terms of character.

As a striker, Cole is very quiet and unassuming. Such a personality is not easy to relieve pressure.

More importantly, Cole is not a big-hearted player. Since he missed two consecutive must-go goals in the last game of last season, causing Manchester United to lose the championship, he has not come out of that game, and he obviously lacks confidence in the game.

Beckham believes that Cole was probably a child who was praised by the head coach since he was a child. He can only grow up in the praise. Once he encounters criticism and accusations, he wants to escape from reality when he can't bear it.

You must know that on the football field, strikers, like goalkeepers, often become the first object of criticism from the outside world after the team loses. Forwards without a big heart generally have no achievements.

A striker's self-confidence is not given by others, but innate. Some things are simply talent.

Cole's hardware is very hard, but the software is very soft. I am really not sure what he can do, so I can only ask Old John.

As Beckham's "Football Encyclopedia", Old John strongly endorsed Cole in his reply: "David, I am very glad to see your question. This has already shown your trust in me, and we are getting closer to a friend who can talk about everything.

Regarding Andy's question, I can assure you that he is an excellent striker. He will play for Manchester United for another six years and will experience the most glorious moment in the club's history with the team.

Manchester United is a well-deserved overlord of the Premier League, and Andy has contributed a lot during this time.He has gone through some difficult times this season, but please believe me, he will definitely play his due role.

As you say, Andy is quiet and sometimes seems to lack energy, but that doesn't put him off.

How a player performs depends on the team he is in. Manchester United is a team that is always full of fighting spirit. Infected by everyone, Andy will become a qualified Manchester United man sooner or later.

Andy's with that said, it's been great to see your recent mental growth.

It seems to me that many of your previous questions were only about yourself and what you could get from my information.But I found that your mentality has gradually changed, and you have begun to care about the situation of your teammates, which is a good sign.

Whatever the purpose of your question, I'm sure you're starting to think about your team.

This is how a boy turns into a man. The more you take on, the more you will naturally grow.

See you next time, your most faithful John. "

Beckham read the old John's reply twice repeatedly, and had to admire the other party's language skills.

Obviously, he wanted to ask about Cole's career trajectory, and then saw someone order dishes, but when it came to John's mouth, he was sublimated immediately.

I have to admit that the insurance seller is good at talking. Everyone talks about the same thing, but he can pick out the shining points of human nature.

Okay, then in the next game, the pass must be passed, and the KPI of the teammates cannot be affected.

Although I know that Old John's praise is a bit exaggerated, but Beckham feels very good.

No way, everyone in this world likes to hear people praise themselves.

In the 16th round of the league, Manchester United met Chelsea again, and the schedule was very unevenly distributed.

And there is bad news for the team: Schmeichel and Giggs are injured and unable to play.

Schmeichel gritted his teeth in that game after spraining his wrist against Nottingham Forest.

After the post-match inspection, the team doctor advised him to rest for a week to observe the situation.

And Giggs is still an old problem. He sprained his hamstring during training and he will have to rest for at least two weeks.

After such a toss, Manchester United can only use the remnants to play against Chelsea.
