Chapter 658 The Third Way

Shocked! Manchester United collapsed devastatingly, the most humiliating battle in Ferguson's life!

In a strong dialogue, the Red Devils Manchester United was beaten back to its original form by Tottenham Hotspur!

Manchester United suffered a tragedy that has not been seen in a century, and the degree of the disaster is comparable to the 9/11 incident in the United States!

The second-rate cards made it difficult for Ferguson to fully display his strengths. The old Sir painfully admitted after the game that Manchester United had no hope of winning the championship!

The Luzhniki miracle reappeared, and the bloody night of Tottenham Hotspur ushered in the cornerstone of revival!

The Serie A master made nearly 100 passes to create a massacre, and his peak state far exceeded the Milan period!

The crazy trident demolished the Arsenal and then slaughtered the madman. Who can compete with the world's first?

Tottenham's weak scholar showed his toughness and bloodiness. After Ramsey proved that Fabregas Silva was the best, the white lily midfielder relied on him!

Twelve million euros to buy the crazy Bielsa disciple, Chilean midfielder Vidal conquered the Premier League in one battle!

…………

After Tottenham Hotspur defeated Old Trafford 8:0 away, newspapers and media of all sizes in the UK, Europe and even around the world reported the game in different ways, and the whole of London was plunged into a sea of ​​celebration. Even those who were not Tottenham Hotspur fans cheered for the victory of the London team.

For a long time, there has always been an insoluble grudge between the fans in the south of England, represented by the London team, and the fans in the north, represented by Manchester United and Liverpool, especially in recent years.

In the past, the London team was weak and could not resist the outstanding results of several teams from the north, so when they faced the ridicule and sarcasm of the northern fans, they could only choose to endure it silently, but now it is different. There was Arsenal in front, Chelsea in the back, and now there is a Tottenham Hotspur, which makes London fans very proud.

Since Ye Qiu took over Tottenham Hotspur, with a series of reforms and reorganizations, the performance of the North London Lily Whites has been very good. Whether in the Premier League or the Champions League, they can play at their own level. Moreover, Tottenham Hotspur is the only team that has successfully defended the title since the reform of the Champions League. This is the pride of London fans.

In this case, almost every match between Tottenham Hotspur and northern teams, especially Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool, has attracted the attention of countless fans, and even many non-Tottenham Hotspur fans will choose to support Tottenham Hotspur, making the North London team the banner of London football.

Last season, when Tottenham Hotspur slaughtered Arsenal 9:0 away, creating the most painful humiliation in the Arsenal's 100-year history, Arsenal fans said painfully that it was not a skill to score an amazing score in such a London civil war. If you have the ability, you should go to slaughter northern teams.

At that time, fans of teams including Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and others ridiculed Arsenal with sarcasm, believing that such a score could only appear in the London derby, not in the North-South match.

But now, as if to hit the morale of northern fans, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Old Trafford 8:0 away from home, which seemed to be a feeling of the sky falling in the eyes of many Red Devils fans, even northern fans.

After the game, major football commentators in the UK, Europe and even the world began to write their own comments. Almost every one of them would pay attention to this focus game, and everyone could predict that after such a crazy game, fans all over the world would click on those comment articles crazily.

Everyone, every fan, must want to understand what kind of story happened in such a game, and what exactly caused Manchester United to suffer such a defeat at their home ground.

As Andy Gray said, in quite a few newspaper commentary articles, they found a lot of evidence for this game. For example, they believed that in terms of the total running distance of all players in the game, even if Ferdinand played the whole game, Tottenham Hotspur still had one more player running distance than Manchester United.

"In this kind of game where they were in a tragic dilemma of 11 vs. 12, and even in more than 30 minutes, they were in a tragic dilemma of 10 vs. 12, Manchester United's big defeat is not difficult to understand. Their way of playing on the court, which could not keep up with Tottenham Hotspur's running and rhythm, made it difficult for them to stand on the same level with the opponent to compete."

The influence of this game even exceeded football. The Daily Mail even published a column on the front page of the next day, which was written by Craig Brown, the most famous editor and reporter of the Daily Mail. This was the first time that the most famous British and the number one reporter of the Daily Mail wrote a football commentary.

In the past two years, the Daily Mail has made great progress and won many important awards in the British Press Awards. For example, Craig Brown has won the Best Columnist Award and the Most Humorous Award, and is deeply loved by readers. In addition, Martin Samuel, who is known as Tottenham Hotspur's golden hitter, has also opened a football column in the Daily Mail.

The positioning of the Daily Mail and Tottenham Hotspur is very consistent. The former is positioned as women and the middle class, which has helped the Daily Mail carve out a path in the UK where newspapers are everywhere. Tottenham Hotspur is the most popular team among women in the UK. Even in every game, there are at least 35% women in the stands. This ratio is the highest in the world, not to mention in the UK.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this relationship that the relationship between the Daily Mail and Tottenham Hotspur has always been very good.

This time they asked their number one columnist Craig Brown to write this football review himself.

Craig Brown wrote at the beginning of the football review that it was his first time writing a football review, and he could not compare with professional football commentators like Martin Samuel. However, he said that for this football review, he He went to the scene to watch this focus game, but what shocked him the most was not from football, or rather, it was not just football.

"I have always lived in London, and I have found that over the past few years, Tottenham Hotspur and Ye Qiu have gradually become a very favorite topic of discussion among London's upper class. For example, some people would argue, Tottenham Hotspur and Ye Qiu Who is the next superstar to be sold by Naham Hotspur? Then there is a debate!”

"Some people will also say, who is the next star of Tottenham Hotspur? Then there will be another debate!"

"I'm sure everyone who lives in London has this feeling that Tottenham Hotspur is so close to us, so close that we hear about it almost every day and we can see it every day. I received a lot of news about them from newspapers, the Internet, and even their official APP.”

"These news are very interesting. They are not doing some simple propaganda and hype. On the contrary, they will produce some very interesting news and videos, such as their Tottenham TV station. This TV station cannot be watched on the TV for the time being. It can be watched from the Internet and mobile phones, and their programs are not just football games or training, but some football-related pictures or comments that are wonderfully edited and will make you find interesting after watching them. "

"I never used my phone to watch these things before, because I think football games should be watched on TV or at the scene, but now I have their APP on my phone and their TV station. They push at least one broadcast every day. This is a short film, I am fascinated by this kind of low-cost, crudely produced short film because it is interesting.”

"I know that when you see this, some people will definitely say that you are not talking about football."

"Yes, I'm not going to discuss professional football today. That's not my strong point. Even though I often watch football, I don't like to waste my brain thinking about those tactics. I prefer the excitement of watching football games, so I don't I hope that the rationality generated by using my brain will affect my experience of watching football.”

"That's all I want to talk about today, Tottenham!"

"The German accounting firm Deloitte once gave a data that, excluding real estate companies and some industrial projects other than football, Tottenham Hotspur's market value has increased to one billion pounds. This is their assessment, and it was once revealed that "There was a potential buyer from the Middle East who proposed to buy Tottenham Hotspur for one billion pounds. That was two years ago. I was very confused at the time. I thought, those people were crazy, one billion pounds!"

"But in the past few days, I checked some information and found that Manchester City suffered financial losses of up to 290 million pounds in the past season, and in the past three years, this team has suffered a total loss of 290 million pounds. The investment is up to one billion pounds, but from the current point of view, at least we have not seen any trace of Manchester City’s top European teams.”

"If you include the 200 million pounds that Mansour spent to acquire Manchester City, plus the current gap in the value of the stars of the two teams, I think Tottenham Hotspur is not only impossible to be worth a billion pounds, but they are now It should be worth 1.5 billion, or even 2 billion, because you can’t build another Tottenham Hotspur!”

"The conclusions I came to surprised me, so I tried to find out why Tottenham Hotspur has such a high market value? What is it about this team that deserves people to give such a high value? ?”

"Because of the championship? Yes, they are indeed the most successful team in Europe in the past few years, but they have not won a championship in European competitions for two consecutive years. In terms of championships, they should be on the decline. ”

"Is it because of the stars? Maybe, but in the past they sold stars every year. This year, they even sold three of the world's top stars in the midfield in one go and brought in three players. One is a veteran that AC Milan doesn't want, and the other is... There are not many famous international players from second-tier countries in Europe, and one is a marginal player who cannot play a main role in the Brazilian national team.”

"Obviously, not a star either!"

"Then I find it very strange. They are neither champions nor stars, so what is it about Tottenham Hotspur that conquers so many fans?"

"I ran to ask Martin Samuel. He smiled and said that this question is very complicated. I asked, how complicated is it? Tell me, and he said a lot. You know, he was standing on a I tried to analyze it from the perspective of someone familiar with the football industry, but as a layman, I just noticed one sentence, culture!”

"Ye Qiu once said that he hopes to help Tottenham Hotspur reshape their football culture, and Peter Kenyon once said that the reason why fans like to go to White Hart Lane to watch football is not because of Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham Hotspur must win, not because Tottenham Hotspur’s style of play is gorgeous, but because they appreciate the culture here.”

"I want to explain this culture clearly in a short article. I ask myself that I don't have such a level. I don't have the ability of Ye Qiu and the huge team behind him in many professional fields, but I feel that Totna Over the past few years, Tottenham has become more than just a football club, but more of a cultural symbol."

"Ye Qiu said that some teams believe in using the lowest cost to win the most honors, so their process is very simple and rough, while some teams admire beauty and even risk everything to pursue beauty, so their process is very simple. Gorgeous, but the result is cruel. We at Tottenham don’t want to be the former, nor do we want to be the latter, we want to go the third way!”

"In the past few years when Ye Qiu was coaching, Tottenham Hotspur have always insisted on offensive football. They all insist on technology and advocating teamwork, regardless of whether their midfielders are Cesc Fabregas and David Silva. Gentle young men, or tough young men like Vidal and Phil Jones, they all insist on attacking. "

"But while insisting on attacking, they never forget their defense. This is a kind of realistic idealism."

"At the same time, Ye Qiu is completely different from other football club presidents and head coaches. He is like a technology symbol. He is very open. Tottenham Hotspur opened its official website and forum early, and was the first R\u0026D company Smartphone APP, insist on communicating with fans on the Internet and APP in a cute and interesting tone every day.”

"Just early this morning, when I was writing this article, the APP pushed a press release from Tottenham Hotspur with the title, Sorry, honey, I threw up!"

“I almost squirted my mouth full of coffee on the laptop screen. I clicked on it, and it turned out that they used a cartoon image of Ramsey vomiting on the court in a way similar to an intimate conversation between lovers. "I apologize to all the fans watching because he threw up on the pitch in front of so many fans around the world, which was a bit ungentlemanly."

"This shouldn't be the reason for the fans to be angry, and no one would even object to this kind of vomiting. But by apologizing like this, he made an already good thing even better, and made everyone watching this People who read the message were conquered by the gentle and cute tone similar to that of a boyfriend comforting his girlfriend, which resulted in a comfortable and valued feeling. At the same time, they would remember and like Ram. Stop this player."

"There have been many, many such examples in the past, and we can even find that the same thing is true. Tottenham Hotspur is demonstrating and creating a club culture of its own in all aspects, and what is reflected on the court is just It is one of the manifestations of this culture, or an explosion!”

"Like all TV dramas and movies, this kind of outburst can be very joyful, such as Manchester United's huge victory over Arsenal, or it can be very depressing and tear-jerking tragedy, such as when the team loses. , It can even be said that people feel very sad and helpless, that is when there is a draw. "

"So, everything on the pitch, whether it's a loss, a win, or even a draw, will not affect the culture of Tottenham Hotspur, nor will it affect the fans' reliance and appreciation of this culture. Even more fans will like the culture more and become more loyal with every game."

"I am more and more able to understand what Martin Samuel said. Tottenham Hotspur is a symbol and a platform. No matter who it is, whether it is fans, sponsors, players, anyone. You can find what you want on this platform.”

"This reminds me of what Ye Qiu said when he was interviewed by reporters at the Leaf Technology headquarters in the United States not long ago. The future world will be a world of the Internet of Things. When Starbucks becomes an Internet cafe, Chinese food appears in KFC, and even... If one day, Ye Zi Technology acquires Durex, no need to be surprised, because cross-border, mash-up, and integration are the future of the world!”

"I also see Ye Qiu's philosophy in Tottenham Hotspur."

"Many people say that it is unnecessary for Tottenham Hotspur to play real estate, hold carnivals, coach training courses, and even visit the community every week, etc., but this is not necessary. Isn’t it an attempt, an attempt to cross-border, mix and integrate football?”

"In the past 100 years of modern football history, football has always been very closed, appearing to the world in an internal cycle, but Ye Qiu and his Tottenham Hotspur are about to break this closeness, "Bring football out of the lofty mystique of wealthy teams and professional players in the past, into the community, walking on the road, and appearing next to each of us."

"As I write this, I suddenly realize that I like Tottenham Hotspur, not just because I like the team that plays fearlessly at Old Trafford and destroys opponents with its impactful and furious attack. The style of play, but also because this team has a very charming club culture, I would like to see where they end up.”

"I'm still thinking that maybe only Ye Qiu, a person from the ancient country of China, can have such insight, because what they believe in is peace, integration, and the golden mean, while we believe more Zero sum game.”

“Although I dare not say how long Tottenham Hotspur can be successful, or whether it can continue to be successful, I can say with certainty that when more and more football clubs begin to try to learn from Tottenham Hotspur, the closed, mysterious and isolated football circle will gradually be broken, and football will return to each of our fans and reintegrate into this rapidly developing world!”
