Chapter 178 Psychological warfare master Ferguson
The players were ecstatic with United's victory over Arsenal, one of the few teams they didn't have the confidence to win.

When the two teams met in the first round, Manchester United had no temper at all when they were defended by their opponents.

Beckham still remembers that Cantona, who had just come back, was restricted by the defensive players led by Adams and had no space at all.

In the frontcourt, they also have a talented player Bergkamp.

When Bergkamp was not introduced, Arsenal was a traditional English team. A team with a single tactic is usually not very lethal.

But since the introduction of Bergkamp, ​​Arsenal's tactics have varied a lot.

They can finally play short passes in the midfield, and Bergkamp's attack power is also very strong.

The last time the two teams faced each other was when he successfully forced Irwin and scored the only goal of the game.

When they met again, the two teams got a lot of chances. The fight between the two sides reached a fever pitch in the midfield. Arsenal, who played away, did not intend to give face to the home team at all.

If it wasn't for Cantona's power at the critical moment, Beckham would have no confidence in ensuring the team's victory.

After the game, Ferguson still had an angry look on his face: "It's not fair, Newcastle did not encounter any resistance at home, but every team will always fight to the death when they meet us, this is not right!

I'm going to right this all right now! "

After Ferguson said this, he walked back from the player tunnel. Beckham and Gary Neville, who were closest to him, looked at each other. It was estimated that the old man was in trouble with the referee, and there were indeed no winks in some of the penalties.

The referee actually awarded several [-]-[-] goals to Arsenal at Manchester United's home court. These penalties interrupted Manchester United's offensive several times in a row.

But the game is over, and questioning the referee at this time can only add to the post-match report, and it won't help the result much.

According to the old man's urination, he usually expresses his dissatisfaction at the press conference after the game.

His words will definitely be reprinted by the media. This expression is very influential. Later, the referee will be cautious when he comes to Old Trafford to whistle the game.

Ferguson's trick has been thoroughly studied by Beckham and Gary Neville.

The old man is very proficient in playing these routines, how can he become self-willed today.

Beckham turned around and asked Gary the dog, "I'm afraid the old man is going to do something stupid. Do you want to remind him?"

Anyway, you are his godson, you can figure it out yourself.

A stubborn ass who has no talent and only knows how to play can become the main force of Manchester United. He said that Gary Neville is not the godson of the old man. Beckham didn't believe it at all.

And I am different from him. I have fought from the edge of the first team by virtue of my hard power.

Now that you have become a son, you should have the awareness of being a son.

Seeing Beckham's arrogance mixed with contempt, Gary Neville suddenly had the urge to prove himself, but seeing the back of the old man walking like a tiger, he was still persuaded: "I think we should look at the situation first!"

As they spoke, the two followed Ferguson out of the player tunnel, and they saw an unforgettable scene in their lives.

Ferguson walked towards the Arsenal players who were thanking the fans in the visiting stands. He ignored the hand of friendship extended by Arsenal coach Halston and went directly to their captain Adams.

"Tony, I have something to ask you!"

Hearing Ferguson's voice, the stalwart Tony Adams turned around and looked over: "Sir, are you talking to me?"

Seen from a distance, the 1-meter-tall Arsenal captain is half a head taller than Ferguson, but his aura cannot hold down Ferguson at all.

"Yes, I have something to ask you!"

Ferguson, with both hands in his black coat, responded with an unquestionable attitude.

The Arsenal fans in the stands were very displeased to see Manchester United's head coach attacking his players in front of everyone. Some of them booed, some whistled towards Ferguson, and their voices suddenly became noisy.

Ferguson didn't care about the reaction of the Arsenal fans at all, he raised his voice and said: "Tony, I watched the previous game, when you played Newcastle, you didn't work as hard as today!

You know what I'm saying is the truth, if you're a stickler, you'll admit it! "

Adams' face darkened, but he didn't attack: "Mr. Alex, this may be a misunderstanding, we will go all out in every game!"

Ferguson waved his right hand: "Go to hell with your nonsense, you and those mid- and lower-level teams have the same piss, and you all think that if you win Manchester United, you will have the strength to win the championship.

It's so far away!

Don't think that playing a good game against Manchester United is a strong team, just look at the league rankings, what are you supposed to be, and what are you after all! "

Hearing Ferguson's words, there was a commotion in the fans' stands of the visiting team. Arsenal fans were all discussing the situation when the team played against Newcastle.

It seems that my team didn't play very passionately at St. James' Park, at least not as well as today.

When Arsenal played away against Newcastle, they also lost 0 to 1 to their opponents, but they also lost by 1 goal but played a different connotation.

In that game, Arsenal had been passively defending in the away game, and the resistance was not strong after being scored by the opponent, which was quite different from the performance in this game.

Adams wanted to argue, but that's the truth, but he couldn't just say nothing: "Every team has ups and downs, we have good times and bad times, but we give our all to any opponent.

We have never been afraid of them, a team without honor has nothing to fear! "

Hearing the volume of both sides getting louder, Arsenal players gathered around to see what happened.

Facing the crowd of Arsenal players, Ferguson said coldly: "Hmph, then I want to see how good Arsenal is!"

Seeing the old man put down his last words and walk past the astonished Arsenal coach, leaving Adams in a mess, Beckham and Gary Neville exchanged glances again.

The old man's performance just now was amazing!

If two people have seen the Three Kingdoms, they must definitely associate their head coach with Zhang Fei of Changbanpo.

Who would have imagined that Ferguson, in front of the Arsenal fans, scolded the Arsenal players like a father scolding his son, and he did it so beautifully and calmly.

I have to admire, the old man is a courageous guy!

Seeing that Adams couldn't hold back, Seaman hurried over to smooth things over: "Tony, don't worry too much, he just wants to use us to stop the championship opponent!"

Adams took a careful look at Seaman, so you need to remind him of such an obvious thing?
"But we still have to win Newcastle!"

Adams yelled this sentence loudly, which aroused the enthusiasm of the Arsenal fans who were a little bit confused just now.

This is the effect Ferguson wants. He just wants to tell the Arsenal players clearly: "Go play Newcastle hard for me!"

The Arsenal players were obviously unhappy, but they had to do so due to the situation.

This is the old man's conspiracy.

In the dressing room, Gary Neville told other Manchester United players about Ferguson's performance just now, and Keane clapped his hands and laughed happily.

At the press conference, Ferguson did not intend to let Keegan go.

A reporter talked about Keegan's theory of "we are still ahead by 4 points" at the press conference, and Ferguson climbed up the pole: "Kevin needs to practice for a few more years to win the championship. In my opinion, he is a completely inferior coach, or a very bad coach. His playing experience did not help him in the slightest, but hindered him.

Because those times are long gone and he has no tactics of his own.I think Newcastle's current results are all the result of the club owner spending money, nothing is his credit.

They spent so much money and bought the best stars, I think even the leash dog will do the same in the head coaching position. "

Ferguson blamed Keegan many times, but never with such intensity.

Seeing that there was news again today, a reporter put on airs and said, "Mr. Alex, Mr. Kevin has obtained his coaching certificate."

Hearing his words, Ferguson said disdainfully: "Kevin can't even read the tactical version. He has a coaching certificate? That just proves that there is a problem with this kind of assessment."

Seeing that Newcastle will face Arsenal and Liverpool consecutively in the next game, Ferguson is ready to zoom in.

His first tactic was to find ways to irritate Keegan and drive him out of control.

What happened today is destined to affect the future of the championship battle, so Ferguson used his second trump card to influence Newcastle's future opponents, so that other teams will focus their attention and energy on Newcastle.

When asked by a reporter about his willingness to question Arsenal after the game, Ferguson was ready to carry out the second strategy: "Newcastle's lead is only because other teams in the Premier League face them as they please, but they face us with [-] points of spirit and energy."

The reporter who asked the question just now immediately asked with a "naive" face: "Sir, can you tell me which teams the other teams refer to?"

Ferguson's words were even more intense, "I am puzzled by those Arsenal players. I respect their coach very much, but these players do not deserve Halston at all. If they can be as devoted to the game as they are against us all season, Arsenal should be near the top of the list.

They only played 12 points because the opponent was Manchester United. Even I felt sorry for them.We can accept a strong challenge from any team, as long as they can continue this kind of game situation into the game every week, instead of just competing against us.

The same goes for the Leeds United players, as if they played professional football just to play against Manchester United. "

Ferguson's implication is very clear, he hopes to see Arsenal in the next week's confrontation with Newcastle can reproduce the bravery and tenacity of the Manchester United game.

Seeing that Ferguson "can't control his mouth" today, the reporters present were all excited. Today's news has a lot of entry points.

But they are going to make persistent efforts to dig as many melons as possible for the fans to eat.

As journalists, we must work hard to let everyone understand the situation behind the game.

"Mr. Alex, you just said that Newcastle has brought in the best players, and now you have to question their performance. Isn't it a bit contradictory?"

Ferguson looked at the reporter who asked the question just now, and said to himself that you are really a roundworm in my stomach, and you can ask whatever I want to say.

He was going to remember the reporter's appearance. This guy might be a Manchester United fan and has the potential to develop into the club's royal literati.

Seeing the reporter handing the knife up, he raised the knife and slashed at Newcastle without hesitation: "Their players are good, but Newcastle is just a second-rate team led by a bad coach. The weakness of their coach doomed them to no championship. If you want to win the championship, you should fire the coach quickly. Otherwise, you don't have to worry about the championship at any time, because it is impossible.

That game at St James' Park said it all, I think the season is marked by this game, Newcastle thought they were the best team in the league, but we told him the result, the fact of the double play proved that they were just a small fish in the league.Can anyone tell me when was the last time they won the league title? "

Under the attack of Ferguson and the torment of the second half of the tough schedule, the players of Newcastle United were indeed no longer brave. They could maintain a certain advantage in addition to the home game, and the difficult away game made them often lose their armor.

Their lead reached 12 points at most, but the point advantage has been approaching since January, and even had only 1 points left at one point.

Although they still have a 4-point advantage, everyone can see their exhaustion.

The psychological warfare against the leaders was used superbly by Ferguson, but he was also very smart not to get involved with the FA, let alone the guys from the referee committee.He is just a champion coach now, and the FA and referees don't care who you are, if you hit the gun, their red cards, prosecutions and suspensions are not vegetarian.

During this period of time, Ferguson launched a psychological offensive through war of words, interference wars, and public opinion wars, affecting the opponent's emotions, and weakening the opponent through off-court factors, which made Newcastle miserable, but he couldn't tell.

Under Ferguson's pressing, Keegan finally gave up.

Newcastle beat their opponents in a casual game, Keegan finally exploded in the press conference: "He said I am a bad manager, Newcastle is a second-tier team, I think he missed a problem, we are four points ahead of them in the table and ahead of everyone else.

I'm a bad coach, what is he?
I want to remind him again that Newcastle lead Manchester United by 4 points!
Even if they win the next game, Newcastle can still win the championship, because we are now leading by 4 points! "

Beckham saw Keegan's runaway in the next day's papers.

Seeing the other party responding to Ferguson head-on, approaching and uttering bold words, Beckham shook his head with a smile.

Still too young, able to be modest and low-key at the beginning of the season, and able to pretend to be low-key in the middle of the season, but the persona he carefully built for himself still collapsed.

Beckham silently pitied the opponent for a second. This guy was originally an impulsive, irritable and irritable person, and he endured for most of the season in order to build a handsome image.

However, after the increasingly fierce competition in the league, it still showed its true colors.

"The Sun" expanded Ferguson's words with the core of "Other teams are too casual against Newcastle, but go all out against Manchester United" to amplify the influence of this matter again. This is to guide everyone to the rhythm of Newcastle.

Seeing that the author of this article was Nick, Beckham let out a sigh of relief.

It turned out to be friendly troops!
On the second day after the "Sun" discussed this issue in depth, Adams promised in an interview with the BBC on behalf of the team that he must prove Arsenal's innocence in the next game.

Seeing this news, Beckham was so happy that he patted his thigh.

I see this thing can be done!
