"Allardyce is such a bastard" In front of the visiting team's coaching bench at Upton Park Stadium in East London, Ferguson saw that after the referee Probert blew his whistle, the Hammers players immediately boldly pressed forward, assuming a posture of trying to press hard.
This made the Scottish coach curse angrily.
Upton Park has made Manchester United miserable this season.
In the third round of the FA Cup, Manchester United, which had just survived the devilish Christmas schedule, visited Upton Park as a guest.
As a result, Allardyce's team gave Manchester United a head-on blow at their home court.
Cleverley opened the scoring for the Red Devils first, but then, West Ham scored consecutive goals to reverse the score.
In the end, Manchester United relied on Robin van Persie's goal in stoppage time to get a draw, and then escaped from Upton Park, and defeated West Ham United in the second round and successfully advanced.
Therefore, many people are full of worries about Manchester United visiting Upton Park Stadium.
If you are not careful, you will lose points.
McFerran knew that Ferguson and Allardyce were good friends, and the two had close contacts with each other.
Allardyce's home was in Bolton, which was very close to Ferguson's home, and their relationship was even stronger.
When he was still coaching at Liverpool, Benitez once humiliated Allardyce, but it was Ferguson who stood up for his friend.
Therefore, while others were laughing and scolding his old friend, McFerran remained silent sensibly.
"Jazz, since we played Southampton at home, we have never conceded a goal.
We have kept zero goals in four rounds.
This shows that our defense is gradually getting back to its best form."
Compared with that FA Cup game, the central defender combination at that time was Vidic and Evans, but now it is Vidic and Ferdinand.
The two central defender combinations are obviously not on the same level.
Besides, with four consecutive league games without conceding a goal, the defense is not good enough.
"Don't underestimate Allardyce, he is a dangerous enemy."
Ferguson was full of worry.
He knew Allardyce too well.
With the latter's urinary properties, how could he dare to press it out if he wasn't confident enough?
Furthermore, among the local English coaches, the one who values data analysis the most is undoubtedly Allardyce.
Therefore, this guy's tactical pertinence is also quite outstanding.
Anyone who dares to despise him will cry.
Mike Phelan was a little skeptical when he heard Ferguson give such a high evaluation to his opponent.
So powerful If he is so good, why don't we see him coaching a top team?
Especially when he saw that after Manchester United survived West Ham United's attack in the opening stage, they began to take the initiative in the game and launch their own offense, he became even more proud.
But at this moment, after the Hammers successfully intercepted the ball, they quickly counterattacked.
Jarvis made a pass from the left.
In the penalty area, high center Andy Carroll overwhelmed Evra and headed the ball into the penalty area.
The also tall Portuguese center Vazte rushed over and headed the ball into the top of De Gea's goal. one to zero The entire Upton Park stadium suddenly burst into thunderous cheers.
Andy Carroll, a high forward who experienced a career trough after moving to Liverpool from Newcastle at a high price, has now regained a new lease of life at West Ham United and performed quite well.
Ferguson closed his eyes with an expression that I couldn't bear to see.
Next to him, Mike Phelan was so surprised that his jaw dropped.
It's that simple Is Manchester United’s defense a piece of paper?
After four rounds of the Premier League without conceding a goal, West Ham United scored three times.
"Mike" Ferguson opened his eyes again and shouted.
But his assistant stared dumbfoundedly at Carroll, Watts and others celebrating on the court.
"Mike" Ferguson had to emphasize his tone and shout again with all his strength.
Frankly speaking, he was not satisfied with his assistant coach.
Sometimes he was too self-righteous, and sometimes he was too impatient.
In this situation, if the ball is lost, the head coach can mess up "Ah" Mike Phelan responded.
"Go, tell them, stabilize the situation, hold the ball, don't mess around, control the ball more" "Oh, okay" Mike Phelan quickly ran to the sidelines and shouted loudly.

Ferguson shook his head and turned towards the coaching bench.
"What's the score like at Carrow Road?"
Manchester United plays West Ham United at the same time as Southampton plays Norwich City.
A member of the coaching staff immediately checked and said, "It's almost twenty minutes, zero to zero."
Ferguson's expression softened slightly.
Norwich's home court was still quite scary.
"How is the situation?"
The coaching staff checked again, "Judging from the data, Southampton should have the advantage, with a ball possession rate of 67%.
Norwich has already received two yellow cards."
Hearing this, Ferguson frowned again.
Although it was just two simple pieces of data, he could clearly outline the scene of the game in his mind.
Southampton took advantage of the ball and completely controlled the ball.
Norwich tried every means to get the ball back, but under some unavoidable circumstances, they could only commit fouls again and again.
"This is not a good situation," Ferguson muttered.
He knows better than anyone that Southampton has just issued a challenge and Manchester United has just accepted the challenge.
If they lose points in this round, it will definitely boost Southampton's arrogance, and Manchester United's morale will suffer a heavy blow, which will also have a certain impact on the players' psychology.
The game restarted.
Under Ferguson's adjustments, Manchester United's players began to consciously control the ball on the court.
This season, Manchester United's left and right wings have been criticized.
Whether it is Ashley Young, Nani or Valencia, their performance is very unsatisfactory, which directly affects Manchester United's offensive power.
Coupled with the long-term weakness of lack of hardness in the midfield, Manchester United's defense also has problems.
To this end, Ferguson also made adjustments to the team, especially in activating the two wings.
Therefore, with Manchester United firmly controlling the ball, Ferguson's adjustments and changes gradually became threatening.
In the 33rd minute, Van Persie pulled the ball to the left and rushed forward, crossing the penalty area.
Japanese Shinji Kagawa took the ball and avoided the defensive player's block and then knocked on the door.
Valencia, who had not scored a goal this season, rushed over and shot in front of the goal, scoring his first goal of the season. one to one This goal made Ferguson, who had been waiting for a long time on the sidelines, excited.
"Okay, great job" The Manchester United coaching staff and bench were even more delighted.
Half an hour later, the score was equalized.
There was still one hour left in the game, so it was definitely a win.
Valencia's goal not only relieved the Manchester United players from heavy psychological pressure, but also made Ferguson feel relieved.
OK, with goals, things will be much easier to handle.
"Mike, inform them, keep playing like this, be patient," Ferguson gave the order again.
Mike Phelan immediately agreed and ran to the sideline to convey the coach's meaning.
Ferguson stood on the sidelines for a while.
Seeing that the players were basically playing according to his requirements, he was quite satisfied with the situation.
After nodding with a smile, he turned around and walked back.
"How's the situation on Carrow Road?"
Members of the coaching staff immediately opened the webpage and looked at it for a while, "Well, it's still zero to zero, no change."
After hearing this, Ferguson grinned and laughed, "Carrow Road is the place where the top teams in the Premier League have failed this season.
Chris Hughton reorganized their extremely poor defense last summer, and its strength has greatly increased.
It’s difficult for Southampton to escape unscathed” Norwich's current four main defenders, Garrido, Basson, Michael Turner and Whittaker, were all introduced last summer.
Garrido and Whittaker were both free transfers, and Basson spent four million.
Michael Turner spent a million and a half.
Over five million pounds, which is a lot of money for a team like Norwich City But the effect is also particularly obvious.
At least Norwich's goals this season have been greatly reduced.

In fact, as early as Norwich lost 4-0 to Manchester United in an away game, Ferguson had a hunch that Chris Hughton would save his energy to play at home.
Otherwise, how can we explain that Chris Hughton did not use all his main players before the game.
In the first 75 minutes, when trailing 0 to 1, he replaced three main players one after another, resulting in the team losing consecutive games.
Three goals, losing 0 to 4.
"Okay, okay, Chris Hughton, if you can successfully attack Southampton, I will remember this favor."
Ferguson was in a good mood when he heard that the other game was still zero to zero.
As long as the current situation continues to develop in this game between Manchester United and West Ham United, Ferguson is very confident that he can win.
And as long as Manchester United gets three points and Southampton draws, then the Saints should also be desperate.
At that time, I want to see again, who else dares to say that we can't win the championship?
Ferguson's eyes flashed with anger as he gritted his teeth and thought.
In the past few days, he has been quarreling with The Sun.
That shameless newspaper, I don’t know if it took Yang Huan’s money, but it persisted in insisting on Ferguson.
The article exposing the dirty information about Manchester United and Ferguson was written one chapter a day, which made me angry to death.
I'm waiting to see what you look like when your face is swollen by me.
But just when Ferguson turned around and was about to walk out, the coach who was observing the enemy's situation suddenly let out a surprised sound and jumped up.
"What's going on?"
Ferguson was startled.
"Sir, Southampton" Ferguson was stunned, and his heart clenched.
"Southampton scores a goal" "What?"
Ferguson felt his eyes go dark and he felt dizzy.
There was an uproar all around.
"Goal, Southampton, goal"
“What’s going on, who scored the goal and how?”
"It was Neymar who was double-teamed by two people on the left.
He broke through and passed the penalty area.
Ibrahimovic fired a powerful volley and scored.
Now it's 0-1 and the Saints are ahead."
Everyone in Manchester United's coaching staff was a little panicked.
Our side had just equalized the score, but our opponent had scored first.
No need to guess, this must be Southampton's game strategy.
First consume Norwich's physical energy, and then attack the overall situation in the final stage.
With the Saints' offensive strength, Norwich will be bombarded indiscriminately in the next ten minutes.
It’s over, it’s over, what to do now?
Everyone turned their attention to Ferguson.
The Scottish coach had a livid look on his face, obviously aware of the seriousness of the game situation.
He turned his head and glanced at the home team's coaching bench.
It seemed that someone was running to tell him.
After hearing the news, Allardyce actually turned around and smiled at Ferguson.
This damn guy must have received the news, he must be waiting for Manchester United to get into trouble Bastard, what a bastard, you actually added insult to injury But Ferguson knew that he must quickly come up with countermeasures now.
"Offensive, prepare, and adjust during the halftime break.
After the start of the second half, we have to attack, reverse the score, and be the first to establish the lead."
Ferguson shouted decisively
