The deep-rooted arrogance hurts the biggest stabbing Liverpool fans. In terms of club performance, Liverpool is more successful than Manchester United. Since Scotsman Bill Shankley became Liverpool's head coach in 1959, the club has been extremely brilliant for the next 30 years. He won the European Champions League four times from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, and was the second "king of Europe" after Real Madrid in the late 1950s.

However, even in the era when Liverpool swept through the army, Liverpool people still felt that Manchester United had taken away too much attention. Even when Manchester United was demoted to the second division in the early 1970s, the "King of Europe" at that time felt that they had not enjoyed the highest respect, but Manchester United was always an overly favored child. Liverpool's glory was inevitably jealous and hated. Manchester United's excessive commercialization made Liverpool, who still maintained the traditional management model, feel ashamed of this resentful neighbor.

Since both clubs are among the most successful clubs in British football history, and they both reached their peak after World War II, the league championships and cup championships over the years have been held in the competition between the two teams, deepening the derby relationship between the northwest England, and the resulting personal grudges are inevitable. The most famous one is the hatred between the two Scots in recent years, Liverpool King Dalglish and Manchester United coach Ferguson.

Before joining Liverpool in 1976, Daglish played for the Celtics and Catholic; Ferguson was a Wanderer center and a Protestant when he was young. Religious conflicts made it impossible for the two to become friends. Before becoming the leader of Old Trafford in 1986, he served as the assistant of famous coach Stan in the Scottish national team. At that time, Daglish was Scotland's number one star, but both of them never spoke.

After 1986, Ferguson's biggest challenge was how to break Liverpool's monopoly on English football, and Darglish had just taken over Liverpool's coaching point from Feigan.

Both Scots are strong-willed, sharp-talking and extremely strong desire to win. Ferguson won the first league championship after seven years of struggle at Manchester United. Daglish defeated Ferguson when coaching at Liverpool. Later, he transferred to Blackburn and took the Premier League championship from Ferguson. The two became a pair of derby enemies, and the hatred still showed no sign of fading. Ferguson has a famous saying in his autobiography: "When you die, you only need four friends to carry your coffin." This sentence is when Daglish became a commentator on the TV station and encouraged the media to siege Ferguson, the old coach scolded him cynically.

The derby between cities is also Manchester and London, Newcastle and Sunderland, Portsmouth and Southampton, but compared with such a close neighbor as Manchester and Liverpool, these pairs of derby pale in comparison. Manchester and London are mainly due to the confrontation between simple industrial cities and glitz-like capitals, while the rest are competition between neighbors. But it is precisely because the derby between these cities that enrich the connotation of professional football. The most direct effect is that this derby can always attract thousands of fans to buy derby tickets and attract a derby victory with its old rival to the pride of the city.

In the spring of 2003, Liverpool was selected as the next "City of European Culture". This should have been a happy event for the youthful vitality of the ancient port. However, two days before this selection, Liverpool lost to Manchester United 0-4 in the league. Therefore, the Liverpool mayor said sourly: "Due to the ignorance of the referee, we lost a main course to celebrate the European Culture Capital." - Four minutes into the game, the referee sent off Liverpool central defender Hypia's red card, and the Reds were defeated.

In late autumn of 2003, Manchester United defeated Liverpool again in another confrontation between the two sides, and that was at Liverpool's home court, with the score being one-to-three. In that game, Liverpool lost without any temper and the whole game was under the control of Manchester United. Liverpool's midfield was completely suppressed by Manchester United's midfield led by Ronaldinho. The goal scored by Liverpool was still the comforting goal scored when Manchester United players were absent-minded at the end of the game.

Now we are here again, and Liverpool shouted the slogan of revenge half a month ago. They have reasons to do so. But it is enough that they are mortal enemies on both sides, not to mention that once Manchester United wins this game, they will win the league title. Nothing is more unbearable than being trampled onto the stage of the championship by their mortal enemies.

Although Manchester United's championship this season has basically become a foregone conclusion, even if they beat Manchester United, Manchester United still leads the second place in the league by Arsenal for seven points. With only three games left in the league, the gap of seven points is almost an insurmountable barrier. However, Liverpool people will still do their best, and even if it only delays Manchester United's winning time, they will be very happy.

The battle of words between the two sides began half a month ago, but just like the gap in the standings between the two sides, Liverpool was completely defeated by Manchester United and Hollier completely defeated by Ferguson. In the current Premier League teams, Ferguson is still invincible in playing psychological warfare and war of words.

The battle of words between the two sides only caused a few handfuls of salt to be sprinkled on Liverpool's wounds.

However, before the game started, both sides were a little upset. This was not because of the hostile relationship between the two sides, but because of the matter within their respective teams, that is, the number one striker of both sides was making a transfer.

Liverpool's top scorer Irving encountered serious injuries at the beginning of this season, which made him missed many games. In addition, Irving's contract is about to expire in one season, and Irving and the team are renewing the contract, but the two sides have a big difference in their contracts. Various media and newspapers are news that Irving will transfer and leave after the end of the season.

Manchester United also encountered the same problem.

Fanny is undoubtedly Manchester United's number one star after Beckham left Manchester United. In the games that have been held this season, Fanny has played forty times in four schedules and scored terrifying forty-two goals, including 29 league goals, 11 UEFA Champions League goals, and one goal in the League Cup and FA Cup. Not only is he the top scorer list in the Premier League, but he is also the first in the Champions League scorer list. If nothing unexpected happens, he will win the double golden boots in the Premier League and the Champions League.

Fanny's contract with Manchester United is expiring in two seasons, and it's time to renew the contract. However, Fanny's personal requirements are very different from the treatment given by the team. Fanny requires a contract with an annual salary of 7.5 million pounds, but Manchester United only gives him a contract with a weekly salary of 90,000 pounds, which means an annual salary of about 4.8 million pounds. This is already the fixed salary for Manchester United team, the same as the team's captain Keane.

Fanny was very dissatisfied with this, so the contract renewal between the two parties was temporarily shelved.

The reason why Fanny has put forward such high demands is because he has been tempted by the outside world. Abramovich's Chelsea and Florentino's Real Madrid are all seducing Van Nice. Chelsea attracts Van Nice because of money. Abramog offered a super contract with a weekly salary of 180,000 pounds, while Real Madrid attracts Van Nice because of reputation. Although Manchester United has achieved great success since the founding of the Premier League, Real Madrid is still recognized as the number one club, and they are the most successful teams in the 20th century.

Of course, the reason why Manchester United refuses to give in is that in addition to the high treatment required by Van Nicht, Manchester United has also been greatly tempted by Chelsea and Real Madrid.

Not long ago, Beckham and Ronaldo expressed their appreciation for Fanny on behalf of Real Madrid Chairman Florentino, and there were rumors that Real Madrid plans to bring the Dutch scorer to the Bernabeu at a sky-high price of 50 million pounds.

At the same time, Premier League rookie Chelsea also joined the ranks of competition for the Dutch. They gave a offer of up to £60 million! If the Dutch are willing to leave Old Trafford, Abu's offer may even be raised to £100 million!

With such external temptation, coupled with the fierce firepower of several other strikers and midfield attack groups in Manchester United, Ferguson and Manchester United management believe that Fanny is not indispensable.

In Manchester United, although Van Nie is the number one scorer, playing 30 games in the league, scoring 29 goals, and averaging one goal per game, because Manchester United's firepower is too fierce, they scored exactly 100 goals in the 34 rounds of the league that have been held! Van Nie only accounts for less than 30% of the total goals. Among them, the six forwards, Drogba, Solskjaer, Rooney, Van Persie, Villa and Torres, all scored at least seven goals, and Scholes, Giggs, Ronaldinho and Cristiano Ronaldo in the midfield have also scored at least seven goals.

Under such circumstances, even if Van Nie left, Manchester United's attack firepower was still amazing.

In addition, Fanny is now twenty-eight years old and is the time to be able to afford the price. Once the contract is renewed once, when the contract expires, Fanny is likely to be over thirty years old, so he can't afford the price.

Of course, if Van Nie is willing to live for a lifetime at Manchester United, there is no problem. However, Van Nie has never made any remarks about a lifetime at Manchester United, which has always had doubts in the minds of Manchester United's management.

Of course, these were all what Ferguson told Jiang Feng that he had not had a direct conversation with Fanny, which is one of the main reasons why he came to Manchester this time. Fanny is a player Jiang Feng admires very much. Emotionally, he does not want Fanny to leave.

Although Jiang Feng doesn't care about Fanny's salary, he doesn't want the team's salary balance to be broken because of Fanny. He is rich, but he doesn't want to invest in Manchester United all the time. Instead, he hopes that Manchester United can maintain financial health and at least be able to bear profits and losses by himself. Moreover, Manchester United has the ability to bear profits and losses by himself. (To be continued.
