Chapter 630 Dog Bites Dog

.., I am the first, second and third in the world.

"This is a great opportunity for us to get revenge. We lost to them in the group stage and we have to win back in the semifinals." Messi showed extreme desire in an interview with Catalan TV.

"I don't think their strength is really that great. We can definitely win against them."

After Barcelona's strong rise, Messi has become more confident in speaking.

Talking about Dong Fangzhuo, Messi said: "He is very strong, but the strongest players are in Barcelona. Other players in Manchester United are also very strong, but they are not as good as Barcelona's players. There is no reason for us to lose the third and fourth games. I I wish they could come to Camp Nou now!"

"We have the technical ability and the ability to control the ball very well. When the opponent wants to play fast and speed up the tempo of the game, Barcelona can resolve it through possession of the ball. We can try to slow down the tempo of the game and drag the game into our own pace. "

crazy!

Faced with Messi's words, the captain of Manchester United in England responded like this: "I only know that in the Champions League scorer list, I am ranked first, Kaká is second, and Ronaldo is third."

"This season we won against Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Bayern Munich."

"We will go to Camp Nou, but not now. What we have to consider now is the FA Cup. Manchester United has a tradition of capsizing in the FA Cup, so Sir Alex Ferguson rushed us all to the field and played Watford the day after tomorrow. Germany, we must reach the final, and then our opponent in the final may be Chelsea."

"Why not Liverpool?"

"Liverpool? Because they can't even win against Barcelona. I believe Chelsea can reach the final."

Dong Fangzhuo's words mean that Chi Guoguo is not optimistic that Liverpool can reach the final in another semi-final. Compared with Liverpool, Chelsea is more resilient, and only a resilient team can go far.

Meanwhile, England's annual awards are here.

The Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) of England has announced its nominations for the Player of the Year. This list includes seven superstars in the Premier League. They are: Didier Drogba (Chelsea), Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool) and four players from Manchester United, Luka Modric, Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo.

There are many dazzling names engraved in the historical honor book of this award.

The winner in 2003 and 2004 was Thierry Henry. In 2005, it was won by the Blues' goalkeeper Terry. In 2006, the winner was Liverpool general Gerrard. This year's PFA Rookie of the Year nominees are also full of stars, including Kevin Doyle (Reading), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), Mikah Richards (Manchester City), Cesc? Fabregas (Arsenal), Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United), Rooney (Manchester United), Dong Fangzhuo won this award last season.

The annual award is voted for by England's professional players at all four levels, with the winner announced this Sunday.

William Hill not only put Dong Fangzhuo first, but also adjusted it to the lowest level. It can be said that there is almost no suspense about Dong Fangzhuo's election.

"Man, you're going to win a prize."

Before the game against Watford, Ronaldo talked to Dong Fangzhuo in the locker room.

"What prize?"

"The Player of the Year Award, don't you know?" Ronaldo was surprised, wondering if this guy doesn't even care about football.

"That's right, I just remembered it, but I don't really care. I want to win the four crowns now, and that's what I care about. Once the team honors are achieved, individual honors will come naturally."

"Why not five crowns? The Community Shield counts." Speaking of the championship, Ronaldo's eyes also lit up. Five crowns, what an honor it is. In 1999, Manchester United won the triple crown. In 2007, Manchester United could Get the five crowns?

Five crowns!

It wasn't just Cristiano Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo whose eyes lit up, other teammates in the locker room were all moved when they heard the word "five crowns".

"Yes, guys, Cristiano is right, we want to win five crowns this season," Dong Fangzhuo waved his fist, "Now, let us deal with Watford first, we are going to the finals to wait for our opponents. "

"Five crowns!"

"Five crowns!"

"Five crowns!"

There was a sudden uproar in Manchester United's home dressing room.

Ferguson just walked in and happened to see this passionate scene. He thought to himself, it seems that he doesn't need to say anything. Everyone knows what our goal is. These guys have really matured.

His old face smiled.

The result of the game also proved his point, Manchester United defeated Watford 4:1. Dong Fangzhuo scored twice, Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney each scored a goal, and the Trident once again went crazy at the same time.

Watford's hope of reaching the final is a pipe dream.

What surprised the Manchester United soldiers was that the semi-final between Chelsea and Liverpool went into overtime, and in the end Chelsea had the last laugh.

The FA Cup final will be Manchester United vs Chelsea!

Manchester United is making great progress on three fronts. In the Premier League, they are 3 points ahead of Chelsea. In the FA Cup, they defeated Watford and entered the final with Chelsea. In the UEFA Champions League, they are 7 points ahead. :1 swept Bayern Munich and reached the semi-finals.

magnificent!

Even Cruyff, who was far away in Barcelona, ​​jumped out to make a few comments. As a football celebrity, although Cruyff has a vicious mouth, he does not look down on Manchester United like Messi and others.

Cruyff, a representative figure of Dutch football and the "godfather" of Barcelona, ​​was invited by Spain's "La Vanguardia" to write a column to analyze the current situation of European football.

"Now we have entered the final stage of the season, which is the stage where the championship is decided. Regardless of who can win the championship, there are three European teams that deserve our praise: Manchester United, Chelsea and Sevilla. Any one of them could win them all, or they could win nothing, but to me, that's secondary. Knowing what I know about football, there's still a chance of winning 3 titles going into April, and that fact alone is a big deal. They are beyond reproach. Then win one, two, three championships, or none, but I congratulate these three teams now anyway.”

"But if I had to choose a team that could be successful, it would be Manchester United."

"The football played by Manchester United is the most similar to the Dutch 'Total Attack' style of play that I have seen in so many years. Ferguson's team played a similar flavor to the Oranje team that year."

Cruyff watched Manchester United beat Bayern 7-1 and he felt a little incredible.

"I was sitting on the edge of my chair during the game, and I couldn't sit still at all. Manchester United played a one-shot, full-attack football, which was really suffocating. They played a pleasing attack, and now Manchester United are favorites to win the Champions League."

"Now the question is, can Barcelona win against Manchester United at home? Considering the records of the previous two matches, I think if Barcelona wants to defeat Manchester United at home, they must play the football of Barcelona philosophy. Manchester United can do it all 'Total defense', why can't Barcelona do it?"

"Almost every player in our team is more talented than the players at Manchester United. Even the most talented Chinese Dong, Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney, I don't think they can compare to Ronaldinho, Messi and Ines. Tower, then the question comes again, why do we still lose to them?”

"The key is attitude."

"Rijkaard has also been unable to control the Barcelona dressing room, so Barcelona's results this season are very bleak."

Rijkaard was very unhappy. What did Cruyff mean when he jumped out to accuse Barcelona players and him? Adding fuel to the fire?

"Cruyff has the right to speak, but there is no so-called attitude problem among our players. Everyone is working hard to fight for the final championship. He will regret his remarks."

"Every player also respects me very much and the locker room is harmonious. It's not as bad as he said."

The reaction of some Barcelona fans was even more extreme.

"Has Cruyff become a Manchester United man? He should live at Manchester United and publish his opinions in English newspapers. He forgets that he is a Barcelona man."

"Manchester United is so good, what are you doing in Barcelona?"

Just as the Barcelona people were engaged in civil war, Dong Fangzhuo attended the England Annual Awards at the weekend...
