After the Champions League victory, Manchester United held a three-day parade to celebrate, and then manager Ferguson gave the players a holiday, allowing the players who had worked hard for a season to go home for a holiday, which lasted until early July.
Although the season is over, the news of Manchester United has not decreased. On the second day after the celebration, Manchester United midfield master Paul Scholes announced his retirement through the club's official website: "it's not easy to make this decision, but after winning the treble again and surpassing Liverpool, I feel that it's time to end my career as a player. I'm 37 years old and I hope to win I hope to spend more time with my family. I don't speak much. What I want to say is that playing football is my favorite in my life. It's a great honor for me to have such a long and successful career at Manchester United. I want to thank the fans who have been supporting me in my career. I also want to thank all the coaches and players who have worked with me. But I want to thank Sir Alex the most. From the first day I joined Manchester United, his door has been open for me. Now Manchester United is very strong, I know this team will continue to win a lot of titles under his management
Scholes's departure is not sudden. When Neville announced his retirement, Scholes revealed his intention to retire. However, he and Ferguson were not sure that Gao Xiaodong was in charge of Manchester United's midfield, so they chose to stay. Now Gao Xiaodong's performance in Manchester United is very good. Even without the help of Scholes, Gao Xiaodong can sort out the attack and defense That's why Scholes announced his retirement.
Just after van der Sar left, Manchester United immediately lost Scholes, which made Manchester United fans very sad and worried. They worried that Giggs, the last player in class 92, would retire. Therefore, Manchester United fans launched an online campaign to retain scholko's signature and marched to Carrington training base and Old Trafford stadium, hoping Scholes would stay for another year Waiting for Gao Xiaodong to fully mature.
Of course, the fans can't change Scholes's mind. Scholes agreed with Ferguson before he announced his retirement.
Although in Scholes' condition, he can play for another year, but now Manchester United are strong, especially the reserves of midfield players are very rich, such as Anderson and bogba need time to grow, so Ferguson agreed to the retirement of Scholes.
however, Scholes will not leave Manchester, his farewell game will be held at Old Trafford in August and he will be part of the United coaching staff after that.
Neville has just left the brilliant season in the past, and now Scholes has also left. At the beginning, the golden generation of Manchester United is now left alone by Giggs, and an era is over.
On the retirement of Scholes, Sir Alex said with emotion, "apart from what I have said before, what else can I say about Scholes? We are going to miss a really incredible player, Paul is always 100% loyal to the club. I'm happy that he will join our coaching staff next season. Paul always encourages teammates of all ages. We know that he will continue to play in his new position
Manchester United team mate Ferdinand called Scholes "the best player of his time." Ferdinand wrote on his micro blog, "I love every minute of playing with Paul. I'll miss the training days with him, the harsh words and boring comments he gave me when I was warming up on my bike. "
There is only Giggs left in class 92. Wang Laoji said regretfully about Scholes's retirement, "I was the only old friend in those years. Now I don't know when I will leave. Maybe next season, maybe I can't play any more, so I will choose to leave directly. Paul is a great player, he is a natural with football. Paul's feet don't have the magic of a Latin player playing the violin, but his ability is devastating. Paul often does some crazy things on the training ground. He will point to a tree 40 yards away and say to me, "see that tree? I'm going to kick him. There was no run-up. Scholes swung it and hit it
It's a happy and sad thing for the new generation like Rooney and Gao Xiaodong to lose another old guy. Scholes' experience is helpful to them and the team. But after Scholes leaves, the new generation will surely be more free, and this Manchester United is more like their Manchester United.
Rooney tweeted a story about Scholes' retirement. He said: Scholes once kicked the ball into a bucket 60 yards away. I asked him how he did it, but you know, you can't get any answers from him. But I understand that in addition to genius, Paul is also a very diligent person. "
GAO Xiaodong's comments are different from others, because some media think that Scholes is forced to retire by Gao Xiaodong. This season, Scholes has less and less playing time, and the core position is gradually given up to Gao Xiaodong, which makes Scholes disheartened and decide to retire.
Gao Xiaodong tweeted: "it's a pity that Scholes has retired. He is the best player in England. He interprets a simple football style. There are no flashy empty moves, but it's deadly and effective. His retirement is an irreparable loss for Manchester United
Scholes announced his retirement, which attracted the attention of football media all over the world, but after all, Scholes is a low-key and introverted person, and his influence among the fans is also poor. Three days later, the enthusiasm of Scholes' retirement gradually goes down, and then the focus of media attention is on Gao Xiaodong, the first person in the world football.During the season, Gao Xiaodong's news is about goals and goals. In the off-season, Gao Xiaodong's news is about transfer, which is also the practice. As long as the season ends, whether Gao Xiaodong has renewed his contract or not, there are always rumors about Gao Xiaodong's transfer.
Of course, the media don't hype Ronaldo and Messi, only hype Gao Xiaodong. It's because Gao Xiaodong's transfer is too frequent. He only stayed in Porto for one year. If Porto can't accommodate big gods, it's absolutely unexpected for Gao Xiaodong to leave Inter. Therefore, as soon as inter won the treble, Gao Xiaodong chose to transfer to Manchester United, which became the turning point of last season He is the best player in the football market and the second most valuable player in the world after Ronaldo.
Now Gao Xiaodong has won the treble in Manchester United again, and has won the best striker in the league and the Champions League. Without "pursuit", will Gao Xiaodong choose to leave Manchester United?
Obviously, the media, fans and gambling companies all think it is possible. Even the three major European gambling companies have offered odds for Gao Xiaodong's transfer. The odds for Gao Xiaodong to stay at Manchester United are 1-1.4, while the odds for his transfer are as high as 2.75, which means that Gao Xiaodong's transfer is very likely.
