Chapter 259: Maguire's huge and low-level mistake (this happens every day, please don't subscribe if you don't like it)

The next day, in the village of Hale.

The early morning sun shone through the dense shade of the trees. Chu Feng was jogging along the wide fitness trail, basically maintaining a speed of 5:00.

Because Manchester United's next game will be on February 28, which is three days later.

So Mourinho gave everyone a day off.

Chu Feng originally wanted to sleep in, but his biological clock was too strong. He opened his eyes at 6:30 in the morning and couldn't fall asleep again when he wanted to.

I just got up and did some recovery training.

The three areas of Hale, Borden and Barnes are the most popular places for Premier League players. There are more than 30 Premier League players in Hale.

"Morning, Luke Shaw!"

Chu Feng greeted him with a smile.

"Are you going to see Mr. Guardiola again?" Luke Shaw said with a wink, "Oh, no, it should be Ms. Guardiola."

"Get lost, I heard from Maguire that you have gained another 0.8kg recently, hurry up and go for a run!"

Chu Feng retorted unhappily.

Recently, due to Manchester United's very tight schedule, Mourinho's requirements for players have become increasingly strict. Basically, various data are tested every day to ensure that the players' bodies are in the best condition.

The smile on Luke Shaw's face disappeared instantly. "I repeat again, I'm not fat, I just have a big frame!"

"Okay, I hope the boss thinks so too. I'm leaving now."

Chu Feng shrugged, waved his hand, turned and left.

Along the way, he met several familiar faces, including Van Dijk, Hazard, Arnold and so on.

It’s actually quite strange. Although they are sworn enemies on the field, they are quite polite when they meet in private, and there is no feeling of tension.

Soon, Chu Feng arrived at Guardiola's door. Maria had already changed into sportswear and showed a lively smile: "Hey, isn't this a busy man's dream? You finally have time to look for me?"

"You know, we've been playing a lot of games recently, and I've basically been living at the training base."

Chu Feng spread his hands helplessly.

"Okay, I know you're busy." Maria walked quickly to Chu Feng's side, wiped off the hawthorn petals on his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Please buy me some morning tea, and I'll forgive you."

"Don't even mention one breakfast. Even a hundred breakfasts are fine, provided you can catch up with me."

After Chu Feng finished speaking, he shot out like an arrow.

Maria stood there for a moment, then angrily chased after him, shouting, "Wait for me!"

Suddenly, a ray of light reflected from the second-floor window, and Guardiola sighed silently.

Ever since the two families had dinner together on New Year's Day, Chu Feng and Maria have officially confirmed their relationship.

In fact, Guardiola also knows that Chu Feng is the best choice for his daughter. He is low-key, humble, and serious in his daily life. He has no scandals and is very good to Maria.

But for some reason, he always felt uncomfortable and couldn't put it into words.

Bang, bang, bang! Valentina came over with a cup of coffee, "Dad, don't stay up late to read tactics all the time."

Guardiola's eyes were full of pampering.

Although my eldest daughter is a complete love-brained person, fortunately I still have a lovely and considerate younger daughter.

However, Valentina's next words almost made him vomit blood.

"Um... Can I sit in the Manchester United family area with my sister at the League Cup final next month?"

Valentina said sheepishly.

Mainly, she felt that Manchester City played the game without passion. They were either passing the ball or on the way to passing the ball, which made people sleepy.

What about the feedback from fans?

Manchester United fans are much crazier. Every time Chu gets the ball, shoots, or scores a goal, they roar at the top of their lungs. It is a completely different feeling.

Just thinking about it makes my blood boil.

"All right."

Guardiola waved his hands helplessly. The originally fragrant and mellow coffee seemed tasteless at this moment.

Valentina clenched her little fists and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Dad!"

After she happily walked out of the room, Marius couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, did Dad agree?"

"I seem to have forgotten to mention you." Valentina scratched her head awkwardly.

"ah?"

Marius was bewildered.

A few minutes later.

When Chu Feng and Maria passed by Kyle Walker's villa, two charming girls happened to walk out from it and even threw a few seductive glances at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng glanced subconsciously.

I thought Kyle Walker was indeed the number one scumbag in the Premier League. He had been on and off with his ex-girlfriend Anne several times, and even cheated on her best friend several times. I heard that they had a child together.

At first, Kyle Walker refused to admit it, but after being rejected by the DNA test report, he had no choice but to pay the money to settle the matter.

Even so, Kyle Walker's girlfriend chose to forgive him.

But it is obvious that Kyle Walker is not satisfied. "Tsk tsk, the British are really playing tricks." Chu Feng sighed twice.

"nausea!"

Maria put her arm around Chu Feng to assert her sovereignty, and looked at the two girls with disgust in her eyes.

"You won't do this again, will you?"

After saying that, she asked again suspiciously. It was not that she did not trust Chu Feng, but mainly because in the Premier League, the players’ private lives were chaotic and scandals were often exposed.

And there are people who like to pull their teammates to advance, such as Kyle Walker.

"What are you thinking? Am I that kind of person?" Chu Feng gave Maria a big chestnut. "There is an old saying in our hometown, 'If you keep company with good people, you will be good; if you keep company with bad people, you will be bad."

"There have never been any scandals with Maguire, De Gea and others in our team!"

"And as their eldest, I am the most dedicated!"

Chu Feng raised his eyebrows.

If it were the Class of 92 era, he certainly wouldn't be able to say that, after all, Giggs had an affair with his brother's wife, and Rooney had an affair with his aunt.

"That's good."

Maria nodded with satisfaction. - In the next two days, Manchester United resumed daily training, and all players underwent full physical examinations to ensure that everyone could maintain the best condition before the Champions League knockout round.

Therefore, in the 24th round of the Premier League on January 30, Manchester United played away against Crystal Palace.

Manchester United just finished the game against Chelsea a few days ago, and the main players have not yet recovered to their best physical condition, so Mourinho was very bold to rotate the lineup.

Last season's old routine was 4231, with Lukaku as the lone striker. This guy has reduced his weight to his original level and was very eye-catching in today's game.

In the 37th minute of the game, Ashley Young dribbled into the penalty area from the left and made a cross. Lukaku received the ball and shot it into the goal with a light shot.

Crystal Palace 0-1 Manchester United.

Five minutes into the second half, Lukaku seized the opportunity from a corner kick to score another goal. He was so excited that he pounded his chest and screamed like a wild gorilla.

But who knew that only three minutes had passed.

De Gea hit his knee against the goal post while making a save. After being diagnosed by the team doctor, he was unable to continue playing and was limped off by Romero.

I have to say that Hodgson is still quite capable, commanding Crystal Palace to launch high-altitude bombing tactics.

In the 74th minute of the second half, Crystal Palace made a two-on-one pass on the left and sent a cross to the back of the penalty area. Ward headed the ball in and equalized the game.

Crystal Palace then took advantage of the situation and continued to launch attacks from both wings.

"David, how's it going?"

Looking at De Gea covering his knee with an ice pack, Chu Feng's tone was full of concern.

There are still some loopholes in Manchester United's backcourt defense, and De Gea is the key to filling Manchester United's loopholes. Although Romero is the main goalkeeper of the Argentina national team, there is still a big gap in strength compared to De Gea.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"It shouldn't be a big problem. Let's take a look at the film after the game."

De Gea could feel the pain subsiding.

But an incredible scene occurred on the court. Manchester United's substitute goalkeeper Romero made a short pass to Maguire on the side.

But Maguire did not seem to realise that play had already begun and scooped up the ball with his hand and put it back into the six-yard box.

Beep!!! The referee blew the whistle decisively and pointed to the penalty spot!

Maguire looked at the referee in confusion. When he came to his senses, he held his head, his face full of regret and shock.

He was indeed distracted just now. Romero was in tears. I finally got a chance to play, and you Maguire treated me like this! ?

Now he completely understood why De Gea told him: "Don't pass the ball to Maguire unless it is absolutely necessary, otherwise there will be very serious consequences!"

"My problem." Maguire lowered his head and dared not look at his teammates.

This penalty is too fatal. It is very likely that Manchester United will be tied by Crystal Palace. And now the competition in the standings is so fierce. "It's okay, leave it to me."

Romero took a deep breath. There was no point in complaining now.

Besides, he also wanted to try out what it felt like to be a hero.

When the referee blew the whistle, Batshuayi took a run-up and shot to the left side of the goal. Even though Romero judged the direction correctly, he still failed to save the ball.

2-2!

Selhurst Park was like an earthquake, with Crystal Palace fans waving their arms and shouting hysterically.

Humans have a desire for destruction in their bones. Being able to bring down last season's Premier League champions is something that Crystal Palace fans should be very proud of! Maguire's face turned pale in an instant, and he wished he could bury his head in the ground.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Mourinho stomped on the grass angrily. It's not that he can't accept failure, but the process cannot be so humiliating.

Maguire was stable for most of the season, but failed at the crucial moment.

I don't know what's in that big head. How could he think of touching the football with his hands? Mourinho's lips trembled with anger: "You think you are playing basketball!"

Chu Feng and De Gea looked at each other, and neither of them dared to persuade Mourinho.

De Gea was even glad to be substituted off the field. If this had happened to him, he would probably be talked about by others for the rest of his life and it would become a "death scene" that would be recorded in history forever.

"Big Head, you're such a fool! You should discuss this in advance!"

Mahrez couldn't help but complain.

When the two were teammates at Leicester City, he noticed that Maguire often lost focus in the second half of the game.

Originally, it was De Gea who stared at him and reminded him, but Romero didn't know Maguire, so he made a big mistake.

"Sometimes I really can't react on the court."

De Gea thought for a long time before he uttered a word.

After all, the two of them had been partners for so long, and they had some feelings for each other.

"Okay, who doesn't make mistakes on the court? Remember not to mention this later."

Chu Feng interrupted his teammates' discussion.

After venting his anger, Mourinho urgently replaced Rashford and Chu Feng to strengthen the attack in the frontcourt in the hope of scoring another goal.

But Crystal Palace made it clear that they would defend to the end.

There was little time left in the game, and Chu Feng didn't touch the ball many times. The occasional shooting opportunities he had were blocked by the Crystal Palace players' body shields.

When the referee's whistle sounded, Mourinho couldn't help but sigh to the sky.

The 24th round of the Premier League ended with Manchester United drawing 2-2 with Crystal Palace, an unexpected draw.

What makes Manchester United fans most sad is that only their own team is performing poorly.

Liverpool 5-0 Watford, Manchester City 1-0 West Ham United, Arsenal 5-1 Bournemouth, Tottenham 2-0 Chelsea all achieved good results.

But the standings haven't changed much.

Manchester City still ranks first, three points ahead of second-placed Manchester United, which is one point ahead of Liverpool. As for fourth-placed Tottenham, it has withdrawn from the championship group.

With only 14 games left to the end of the Premier League, Manchester City can be said to have absolute initiative in winning the championship.

But they will face Liverpool and Manchester United in succession at the end of the season.

However, Manchester City is still very confident from top to bottom. After all, the situation is much better than last season.

As long as they can win the rest of the games, they only need to find a way to draw with Manchester United in the last two games. It doesn't matter even if they lose to Liverpool because they can win the championship based on goal difference.

Unlike the joy at Manchester City, the Carrington training base was shrouded in dark clouds.

Although everyone knows that Maguire did not do it on purpose, they are still furious when they think of the strange scene that day.

And you have to know that Manchester United fans are the most demanding fans in the world.

Manchester United players experience more cyberbullying than any other Premier League club, according to a social media study.

How could such a thing not cause a public outcry?

So Maguire's personal social account was flooded with insults. - [60 million euros worth of refrigerator, rubbish! ] - [If Manchester United misses the championship because of this penalty, we will never forgive you, bastard! ] - [I don't want to see this big guy again! ] - [Why not let Phil Jones start? He is much better than Maguire! ] - [.]

Maguire has been depressed recently and sighs from time to time.

However, the next day after the incident, Chu Feng expressed his opinion on Maguire's social account: "Everyone makes mistakes on the football field, and we have accepted the punishment we deserve. But we will not feel frustrated or give up because of this."

He did not stand against the fans and blindly support Maguire.

Because Maguire did make a mistake, there is nothing wrong with the fans criticizing and accusing him. After all, there is a saying: "The deeper the love, the deeper the hatred."

But that doesn't mean Maguire has to bear the responsibility alone. As a team and a whole, they can't hide like an ostrich when their teammates are under siege.

Soon, the rest of Manchester United players also expressed their support.
