Chapter 246：CHAPTER 276 - The Devil Falls in England (1)

Etihad Campus.

Not long ago, Etihad Airways in UAE bought the title of "City of Manchester Stadium," and at the same time, the name of the training ground changed.

This huge campus, like Etihad Stadium, is owned by the City of Manchester and is separate from the Manchester City Football Club.

It is not a property of Mansour.

The expansion, now scheduled for 2027, was also part of Manchester's urban plan, which did not directly involve Mansour's property.

But it was not at all.

As Mansour contributed to the local economy, it could be interpreted as a direct favor to Manchester City.

This was quite natural given that Barclays bank, where Mansour is the largest shareholder, was the fourth largest in the world.

The expansion of Etihad Stadium was also possible in the same vein.

Large or small, once the power of Mansur was extending everywhere.

Ho-young entered the training center and felt it painfully.

'That's why Manchester City has grown so far.'

As was expected, it was a great scale.

But this is not yet completed, it was amazing.

Waldevevas was huge, but here too.

In addition to the size, the facilities were state-of-the-art, and the level of the training ground was also the best.

I heard that they also have a system that allows detailed analysis of the athletes' movements in real time during training.

I was building the best training skills in the world and it wasn't wrong.

'I'm not envious of the directors of other clubs here.'

It feels like you've come to an alien facility.

Following the coach's guidance, Brian Kidd, he passed through a secret passage and immediately arrived at the main training ground where first-rate athletes trained.

Outside there were endless green grass.

January 2 morning.

"Welcome to the family."

"Please treat me well."

The first day of the camp began.

This was not a school.

There was no such thing as introducing himself in front of the players like the transfer students, and Ho-young simply greeted and shook hands with the people who entered the training area.

"Hi. I call it Young. "

"Nice to meet you. This is Derek Boyata. I was usually a fan. "

"Hello, I'm Greg Cunningham. I've been a fan all the time. "

"Please, thank you. Chris Chantler. I'm a big fan too. "

"Ris Wabara. Please call me Wabara. No, please call me. I would be happy to call me poop. You are my idol. "

Man City's player base is quite thick.

The double squad is basic, and since it manages separate teams under the age of 21 to deal with injury, even triple squads could be built.

There were quite a few young players under the age of 21 not included in the Roster of EPL 25.

They play mainly in group 2 games, but sometimes team 1 players get injured if they are injured in piles or fail to play in a cumulative manner.

In other words, Real Madrid were players like Marcos Alonso and Thevar.

So, of course, they have to look up more good.

It was only natural to greet everybody with no fuss.

And in fact, so was the position of Ho-young.

Manchester City's 25-man roster doesn't have a name for him.

Goalkeepers: Shay Given (34), Stuart Taylor (29), Joe Hart (23)

Defenders: Kolo Toure (29), Jolean Lescott (27), Mika Richards (22), Vincian Company (24), Nedum Onuoha (23), Alexandre Kolarov (24), Wayne Bridge (29), Pablo Zabaleta (25)

Midfielders: Gareth Barry (29), Nigel Dayong (25), Patrick Vieira (34), Michael Johnson (22), Yaya Toure (27), James Milner (24), Craig Bellamy (30), Sean Wright-Phillips (28) ), Adam Johnson (22)

Attackers: Robinho (26), Carlos Tevez (26), Emmanuel Adebayor (26), Roque Santa Cruz (23), Joe (23)

This was the 25-man roster that Man City submitted last September, and there was no room for Ho Young.

I didn't have to wear it.

According to the current EPL roster rules, players under the age of 21 can enter an unlimited number as of the end of the season.

This means that other players do not have to fall in favor of Ho-young.

In many ways, it was a great help for the team.

However, the reaction of the first-team players who came in one by one was unexpectedly warm.

"You'll see a real Young here."

"To this world."

So too, this was so secretly fast-paced that this was unbelievable.

They greeted each other, but there was an invisible wall between them.

Of course, the benefits of Ho Young's transfer to Man City were significant.

The FA Cup, which was progressing smoothly, could easily be won, and perhaps the miracle could win the Europa League.

They also had a coveted career.

But what next?

That's what some players are worried about.

'I don't want to be a bridesmaid.'

'You only go six months? Are you saying you're going to play a hero? '

'Even though our club is a club with money, it's like bringing mercenaries with money.'

'Damn it. But the media's attention has been declining, and it seems like Woo Ho-young is focused. '

'We will be treated as consumables and released from the team one by one.'

To that end, there were some players who couldn't happily accept Ho-young's transfer.

Of course, it's a good thing the team wins.

But players simply don't see what's in front of them.

If Manchester City wins a Champions League ticket, the team's reputation will increase, and the next season's high-profile players will be more likely to join the team.

Existing members are getting less seat.

If not, Woo-young had already come to Man City, saying that the club's reputation had increased.

Fans are already treating Ho Young as legend level, but outside fans are envious of Man City.

Maybe it was natural for players to be jealous.

Even if it wasn't, many players had bad feelings for Ho Young.

Naturally, Hovenue, who gave me the number 10, needless to say, Yaya Toure met several times in El Classico, Jerome Boaquin, who had been fooled at the Montagues of France, and the Vincent humiliated by the Olympics, and Patrick trampled in the Champions League. To Vieira.

Some of the players who had been robbed by Ho-young in various ways still had bad feelings.

That is why the atmosphere of the training ground was not unusual.

Of course, Ho Young did not predict this situation.

However.

'I think it's not just because of me.'

It's hard to hit.

As I trained, I felt that there was an invisible wall among the existing players.

clique.

Divided into English-speaking and non-English-speaking players, a confrontation was formed.

Moreover, there was frequent friction between the players and the coach.

Total difficulty.

As long as I felt good training during the day.

I didn't know the situation would be so serious.

By the way, today was a game yesterday, so I just loosened my body, and the next day and the next day was even worse.

That's what a true leader needs, and there was nobody on the team right now.

Carlos Tevez, the captain, complained of homesickness and only clouded the atmosphere.

Ho-young felt the seriousness of the team.

Mid-level teams and weak teams could win, but to win the Europa league or EPL, it would not have been enough.

I needed a moment to boost the team's tension.

'You have to show something for sure.'

As the worries increased one by one, the game day was approaching.

[ Woo Ho-young earned the respect of his colleagues in the team training last four days. Some players are said to have been moved to tears by his amazing skills.]

[ Woo Woo-young eats a chicken breast salad for breakfast. Tottenham's symbol, "chicken," is interpreted to mean a sacrifice for their debut.]

Chira Shiro is an English tabloid that forms both mountains.

The Sun and the Daily Star, with stimulating headlines, decorated the front sides of various tabloids.

The four most reliable newspapers, Independent, Telegraph, Guardian, and Times, also featured Ho Young's articles as main.

[ Tottenham's Redknapp manager "Who Young's debut will not be so easy, and he will show his spirit not afraid even if the god of football comes," he said. He added.]

[ Mancini Director "I don't know if Tottenham is qualified to say that. Looking at the top of the league pretending to be the league's top, it seems that the chicken he ate in the morning would come up. Breaking the confidence of the other person is my specialty. "]

[ Woo Ho-young "I am sick and tired all over. I will do as I did. "]

[ Gareth Bale "Let's show the strength of EPL and the strength of Tottenham."]

Numerous articles attracted the expectations of English football fans.

Meanwhile, Manchester City's team bus arrived at Tottenham's home stadium, White Hart Lane, in northern London.

It was 10 am Wednesday, January 5th.

Soon after, they came out on the ground to relax.

Their face was exhausted by the exhausted hell schedule.

Tottenham's players, on the other hand, were very impressed.

This was due to the fact that in the last game, Birmingham City was overwhelmed and proper fitness arrangements were made.

Of course, there were fears of Woo-young's existence, but they were mentally trained to overcome them.

Moreover, Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp called the players before the match.

"It doesn't matter if your opponent is a god of football or basketball. You are dealing with Manchester City. The poor team that we beat four to one in the last away game. It is not you who fear, but the guys of Man City. "

Redknapp, as always, gave players confidence.

It was the driving force that could pull Tottenham up to here.

Of course, there was a drawback that might make players nervous.

But that never happened.

It was Woo Woo-young, who was 17 years old, conquered the world stage and held Ballon d'Or.

No one had a loose mind against him.

Rather it was a problem.

I'm so afraid of Woo-young.

Over the past few days, players have been afraid of the good, despite having been training mentality for today's game.

'If you go out in this state, you won't be able to show half your skills properly.'

As a result, Redknapp finally made a special move.

"Don't think that the other side is Woo-young."

"What do you mean?"

As the team's core Gareth Bale recalled, Redknapp pricked his head and opened his mouth.

"Erase that name Woo-young Woo in your head. And switch ideas. It's not Woo-young you're dealing with, but just a footballer with two legs. "

"Well···. Okay."

Whether it worked or not, the players struggled and shouted cheering for the team.

"Come on you Spurs!"

"COYS!"

"COYS !!"

As such, the short-term game that would slash the fate of fourth and fifth places was approaching the nose.
