Chapter 187 If Ferguson Was 20 Years Old

After hanging up the phone, Beckham shook his fist excitedly.

Happiness comes a little suddenly.

Playing for the country is the dream of every player. He once imagined that if he played well, he might be able to become a regular visitor to the England team at the age of 25.

At that time, it is estimated that I will play as a substitute for a period of time, and then I will play a World Series as a main force at the age of 28 to 30.

In his view, life is complete.

But Old John said that the Beckham of that world participated in the World Cup at the age of 23, and also played a knockout game as the main force.

In his eyes, this is the standard configuration of a top player.

According to Old John's description, Beckham in that time and space had never entered the England team before 1996, and he didn't get a chance to play until the qualifiers for the World Cup in France.

But his career trajectory seems to be a little different. Since the second half of last year, he has become a regular tool man under Venables.

Saying that he is a tool man is not self-pity, because players who are qualified to be called tool men must have functions that the patron saint of drinking fountains does not have.

Looking around, hundreds of players in England dream of becoming a member of the England team, even if they are a tool person, they are happy.

To put it bluntly, functional players are the support of core players, even if they are not the core in the heart of the head coach, they still have a place.

He quickly told Old John about Venables' commitment, and wanted to ask if Beckham in that time and space had a similar experience.

As a result, before he finished writing the message, Old John couldn't wait to reply: "What? Terry called you? What did he say on the phone?"

Whoa!Why does it feel like this buddy has an urge to eat melons.

Seeing Old John's three consecutive questions, Beckham felt that his career seemed to be developing more smoothly than himself in that time and space.

Well, I didn’t get any information from Old John, and I still want to give him a popular science about what happened on my side. Beckham feels that this Old John is more and more likely to develop into a tool man.

In order to avoid the [-] whys of the middle-aged man, Beckham told the other party what happened in detail.

After writing what happened, Beckham moved his right hand. Unexpectedly, it took him nearly 2 minutes to write the phone call for 10 minutes before he understood the whole thing.

It would be great if I could send voice, but writing a letter is too much work.

If the opposite is a girl, and he can match up with reality, his enthusiasm may be even higher.

After all, men and women are matched, and work is not tiring.

But the opposite was a middle-aged man, and the two gentlemen had been communicating for more than half a year. If this matter was told, whoever heard it would be surprised.

Even so, Beckham still held his nose and finished writing the letter. After all, he lived 15 years later. Even an ordinary fan can give himself some advice based on the development of football over the years.

Unexpectedly, Old John's reply was simple and direct: "Fuck, this is too unbelievable, congratulations, David!"

that's it?
Beckham really didn't expect that the "prophet" he identified as a career would have no guiding significance if he didn't last a year. John's current role is to be a melon eater.

Just when he was a little disgusted, Old John said again: "David, based on what I know about Terry, as long as you can maintain your current state, you can definitely represent England in the European Cup.

Although this guy has a bit of a weird personality, he takes commitment very seriously, and since he tells you this, he will do what he says.

My advice is simple, work hard and live a regular life, you will definitely be selected for the England team, and there is a good chance you will get a chance to play. "

Seeing Old John's reply, Beckham felt reassured.

Think about it, too. England’s training camp date will have to wait until at least the end of May. How can a head coach call a player he doesn’t value nearly two months in advance, and make a promise on the phone? It’s not about dating.
The next morning, Beckham rushed to Carrington after breakfast.

Just entering the locker room, Ferguson was bragging with the players. When he saw Beckham coming in, he immediately waved: "David, what did that old blind man tell you on the phone?"

Um?The news spread so fast?

Beckham shrugged with a smile: "He said I was included in the European Cup list, and then hung up the phone"

After hearing what Beckham said, Ferguson laughed loudly: "Then you are better than Gary. Terry called him and said a few words: 'Gary, play well, you are the main player in the European Cup'.

He didn't even say who he was on the phone, and Gary only found out who called yesterday from the newspaper. "

From Gary Neville's smirk, Beckham concluded that it was true.

Let such an unreliable person be the head coach of the England team, Beckham is worried about the prospects of the England team.

But John Sr. said that Venables is the England manager with the best coaching performance in the next 15 years.

Thinking about it this way, I feel that the England team is a bit stretched.

Of course, this is not something he should consider.

As a 20-year-old player, you should put all your energy on work.

Don't think about what the England team can play, the key is that you have to be there, which will definitely improve your career a lot.

Schmeichel patted Beckham on the shoulder: "When England and Denmark play, it is best to let Gary play as a central defender. As long as he can play, it will be fine.

And it's better to let Anderton play right midfielder, David is too good at drilling, I don't want to be dragged by this kid, haha! "

Hearing Schmeichel's words, Gary Neville said viciously: "Come on, I'm not afraid of you big fool!"

Schmeichel pressed Gary Neville on the table without saying a word, which caused a burst of laughter in the locker room.

But in Beckham's view, this smile is also mixed.

A big man like Schmeichel who is sure to enter the European Cup smiled brightly. The expression of Keane, a titan who was desperately rejected by the World Series, was more or less lemony, while Giggs' expression was more or less sad. He tried his best, but the Welsh team only got the fourth place in the group.

Cole looked at Gary and himself helplessly. It was all because the quality of the product was not up to standard. After all, it was painful enough to watch him spit out cakes in the club, and it was unnecessary to watch him waste opportunities in the England team.

Ferguson didn't intend to comfort anyone. After all, whether he can enter the World Series is not something that can be decided by just one person.

Even if you can't play in the World Series for the rest of your life, it counts if you can play well in the club.

He continued to brag to Gary Neville, who was full of disbelief: "If I could earn so much money as a player at that time, I must also be a world-class player.

Gary, don't you believe it, if I were 20 years old, what Ronaldo did to you, I could do it too. "

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After hearing what the old man said, Gary could only cough to relieve his embarrassment.

Hitting people without slapping them in the face, picking up people without revealing their faults, and being knocked down by Ronaldo has always been a pain in his heart.

Seeing Gary blushing with embarrassment, there was another burst of laughter in the locker room.

This time everyone's smiles were not so complicated, they were just pure ridicule.

Manchester United's training in the morning is very simple, that is, walking on the training ground, stretching, and bragging to each other.

After eating a tasteless nutritious meal together, everyone got on the bus to Old Trafford.

Today's opponent is Leeds United, and it is another battle of life and death.
