"I guess, Chelsea must have taken the wrong medicine, right?"
In the middle of the thundering sound of Old Trafford, Ferguson stood in front of the home team's coaching bench, looking at the two sides on the court in complete confusion.
The one wearing the red jersey is the home team Manchester United, and the one wearing the blue jersey is the visiting team Chelsea.
Now, the score is 1 to 0.
According to international practice, the home team is in front and the visiting team is in behind.
Ferguson's team took advantage of a quick counterattack in the early stages, and Robin van Persie calmly scored a key goal.
Opening the scoring for the Red Devils in just four minutes But after that, Chelsea pressed and pressed Manchester United like crazy.
With that momentum and appearance, it was as if they were desperate for their lives.
They just wanted to beat Manchester United to death.
If we say that in the first half, when Chelsea's physical fitness was still good, Chelsea used this desperate style of play, running wildly, pressing and pressing, it would be excusable.
But the problem is, it is now the second half, and they continue to do so.
Kick Damn it, are you treating Manchester United as your opponent in the Champions League final?
Ferguson depressedly pinched the scarlet rosy nose on his face.
It was a little itchy and wanted to sneeze, but he couldn't.
That feeling is really At this moment, a Manchester United player on the court suddenly kicked the ball out of bounds.
This move left Ferguson confused, and he immediately wanted to curse.
Fortunately, the referee blew his whistle at this time and suspended the game.
It turned out that Chelsea winger Moses had cramps.
He fell to the ground and rolled around, looking very painful.
Ferguson couldn't help but raise his head and glanced at the red scoreboard.
"I wiped it, but after only sixty minutes, I started to cramp.
This is a lot of effort."
Looking closely, almost every Chelsea player is panting, and no part of their jerseys is clean.
It seems that every one of them is trying their best to kill Manchester United.
This made Ferguson feel depressed.
Damn it, how much did Southampton pay you to work so hard?
But what made Ferguson even more worried was that Manchester United's players were obviously infected by Chelsea's ruthless spirit, and their actions on the field began to increase, so that Ferguson had to frequently go to the sidelines to remind them.
Chelsea's acting manager Zenden quickly replaced Moses with Adam Lallana.
This gave Ferguson a sudden thought, right?
Another former Southampton player Manchester United had lost points in the previous two games.
Against Manchester City, Southampton's old player Stroman performed well and instigated two goals.
Later, when playing against Arsenal, it was Southampton's old player Oxlade-Chamberlain who performed eye-catchingly.
Sometimes Ferguson wonders if these guys did it on purpose.
Do they all want to help Southampton win the championship?
Haven't you all left the saints?
The game between the two sides restarted, but the scene was still heated, which made Ferguson on the sidelines feel frightened.
"Vidic, take your time and kick, don't get hurt again."
"Oh, Ferdinand, don't hit Demba Ba with your body, be careful."
"Raphael, please be gentle.
Your temper has gotten worse recently.
Please calm down."
"Cleverley, don't lose your position easily, okay" "Oh no, Phil Jones, are you stupid enough to get a yellow card for no reason?"
Throughout the Old Trafford stadium, shouts from Lafayette could be heard from time to time.
From his loud shouts, it is not difficult to see how brutal the game on the court was.
Both sides tried their best to put the opponent to death.

As the game passed minute by minute, the time entered the 80th minute, but Chelsea clearly had no intention of giving up.
Acting coach Zenden kept walking to the sidelines and calling out to the players, but did not make any substitutions.
This made Ferguson a little strange, "Why is it that this game, which has performed so well recently, is not in the Oscars?"
Assistant coach Mike Phelan on the side shook his head, "I don't know.
Logically speaking, Oscar has performed so well recently and is in such good condition, there is no reason why he can't play."
Ferguson thinks it makes sense.
In such a crucial battle, Oscar didn't even make the squad.
There is only one explanation, and that is that the Brazilian midfielder was relegated to the sidelines by Chelsea's senior management.
Could it be related to the match-fixing incident that has caused a lot of noise recently?
Thinking of this, Ferguson couldn't help but laugh.
Damn it, if anyone comes to watch this game and dares to say that Chelsea is playing match-fixing, they are just telling lies with their eyes open.
Is there such a thing as match-fixing?
I almost lost half of my team.
Ferguson even thought that if he continued to play like this and consumed so much, the next two rounds might not be easy to fight.
"Go back and let the management find out.
Oscar is a very capable player.
If Chelsea doesn't want him, we should bring him in," Ferguson said optionally.
This has nothing to do with him.
After all, it will be Moyes who will be the Manchester United coach next season.
Just when Ferguson was coveting Chelsea's Oscar, the situation on the court suddenly changed.
After Manchester United midfielder Ryan Giggs lost the ball, Chelsea launched a quick counterattack.
Ramirez passed the ball, and Adam Lallana, who had just replaced Moses, got the ball, got rid of the defender, and pushed it diagonally to the far end.
The unmarked Juan Mata rushed over and got ahead of everyone. , kick up and push to the far corner.
De Gea was already prepared for Mata's exquisite shot.
Logically speaking, this ball is not difficult to save.
De Gea is in a good position and has a good chance of saving the ball.
But who would have thought that suddenly, Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway, and the flying general Phil Jones would appear out of nowhere, causing everyone in the Old Trafford stadium to take a breath of air-conditioning at this moment.
It was at this critical moment that Phil Jones was supposed to make a clearance, but unexpectedly he touched the ball and turned it into a shot.
The ball turned in a direction and hit the near corner.
De Gea didn't even have time to react.
Everyone in the audience stared at the red-faced Air Force General Phil Jones on the court.
He's already worked hard But why, why did he appear in that place at that time?
Ferguson felt like he wanted to cry.
He really felt like he was about to miss the mark and fall off a cliff.
Why are you playing with me like this?
Due to the previous match-fixing incident, the referee Webber, who was temporarily adjusted, blew the whistle mercilessly to confirm that the goal was valid.
On the red scoreboard, the score of one to zero soon became one to one.
The Red Devils fans throughout Old Trafford looked like they were about to cry.
They couldn't bear to blame Phil Jones because he was so dedicated and diligent, but the problem was Chelsea players are going crazy They all started celebrating the team's goal like crazy Although it was an own goal, it was able to draw with Manchester United one to one.
This can be regarded as a killing order issued by the board of directors.
It is a reasonable explanation.
Acting coach Cen Deng looked grateful to have survived the disaster and kept shaking his head, feeling that his whole back was soaked.
Damn it, being a head coach is such a test of the heart.
No wonder Ferguson needs a pacemaker installed in his heart
"A blind cat meets a dead mouse, the lucky guy" Ferguson glanced at Zenden, secretly cursed this spineless guy, turned to look at Mike Phelan, and immediately made adjustments to the team.

This time, he went all out and must score again Looking at Adam Lallana again, Ferguson wanted to cry.
It's an old Southampton player again, let me go Ever since, Manchester United quickly made substitution adjustments.
Hernandez came on, Scholes also came on, and the Red Devils began to raise their offensive flag high and press heavily.
Chelsea is also making substitutions and adjustments, but they are starting to think more about defense.
Time is running out, it would be good to keep the tie The two sides fought harder, fiercer, and more fiercely than before.
From time to time there were scenes of people falling on their backs on the court, and referee Weber became the busiest person on the court.
Rafael loses cool and kicks Adam Lallana, red card Benatia foul, yellow card Phil Jones fouled, yellow card, two yellows turned into one red, sent off Demba Ba made an elbow movement while fighting for a header and received a red card As the whole game went on, time passed by minute by minute, but the action on the field became bigger and bigger.
Even though the referee Weber was experienced and kept showing red and yellow card warnings, he still failed to stabilize the situation.
Even when Rafael and Demba Ba received red cards, the two teams were on the verge of conflict and almost took control.
This short ten minutes was really terrifying.
But in the end, time passed When stoppage time arrived, Weber couldn't wait to blow the whistle to end the game.
The entire Old Trafford stadium suddenly burst into overwhelming boos.
No one can tell clearly who the boos are for.
Give it to Manchester United, give it to Chelsea or give it to Webber?
who knows
In this game, both sides ultimately paid a heavy price.
Manchester United received two red cards.
Rafael and Phil Jones both received ruby good guy cards for their uncool behavior and will miss at least the next round of competition.
Chelsea also had a hard time, Demba Ba was also given a red card and suspended.
Who would have thought that a match-fixing match that was causing a lot of fuss before the game would end up being so explosive and tragic that it would be almost a full-scale martial arts show.
The moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Ferguson covered his face and silently returned to the home team's coaching bench to sit down.
No one could see his expression clearly at this time, so he must be very disappointed.
After failing to win Chelsea, the points gap between Manchester United and Southampton is likely to be shortened again.
The Saints visit White Hart Lane this round to challenge Tottenham Hotspur.
Throughout the Premier League, who doesn't know that Tottenham Hotspur is following Southampton's lead.
Furthermore, Tottenham Hotspur's performance this season is very eye-catching, but in terms of overall strength, there is still a big gap between them and Southampton.
Therefore, it may be difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to place high hopes on If Southampton wins, Manchester United's lead will be just one point.
What makes people even more pessimistic is that in this game, Manchester United fought so hard, consumed so much, and paid the price of red cards and suspensions for Rafael and Phil Jones.
In the remaining two rounds, they are still guaranteed to win.
Perhaps the only thing that is good for Manchester United is the schedule.
Manchester United now has no domestic cup distractions, nor does it need to think about the Champions League, concentrating all its energy on the league.
Unlike Southampton, the Europa League semi-finals and FA Cup final are about to start.
In a third-line battle, even if the Saints have a strong bench and strong strength, they may still make mistakes.
Especially considering that Southampton's opponent in the Europa League semi-finals is Benfica, and their opponent in the FA Cup final is Chelsea.
If Southampton reaches the Europa League final, their opponent is likely to be Chelsea.
Thinking of this, Ferguson felt much more balanced.
Hey, Blues, Blues, if you fight like today in the Europa League and FA Cup finals, then Southampton will probably be in trouble.
As a result, Ferguson's originally tangled heart relaxed again and revealed a playful smile
