在这个即将迎来来二十一周年的夜晚,也许老人已将答案揭晓,其中奥秘尽藏一纸出场名单上。 光看他排出的替补球员,其中一半不超过22岁,平均年龄也仅有23.3岁。 着手重建曼联王朝,99年的三冠王功臣他却仅留下了这四个——加里-内维尔,保罗-斯克尔斯,韦斯利-布朗,莱恩-吉格斯。 福吉相信他现在的年轻人们“与八年前的英雄相比,才华不相上下”。 www.imanutd.com9 x7 y9 z# k9 @+ A* L
中卫杰拉德-皮克:21岁,为曼联攻入第一球,为爵页大加赞赏,确保了自己在他的名单上的一席之位。 丹尼-辛普森:才第二次首发看来已颇有大将之风——若他的队友肯多多传球给他,他应能更上一层楼。 罗纳尔多:22岁,招牌进球完美终场; 纳尼,20岁,戏耍如入无人之境。 人们很容易想不起,脸上有着丑陋伤疤的卡洛斯-特维兹,也只有23岁的事实,而这个年轻人刚取得了他欧冠的第一个进球。 - y4 p* U& r2 T3 `; q
正是由于这些年轻人的热血,弗格森显得老而弥坚;他那第二座欧冠奖杯的梦想,不破。 “我们上下一心,随时准备以雷霆之势出击。若想成为冠军,一开始就要明确夺冠的目标。”爵爷强调。
