At 8:05 pm local time on September 28, Great Britain, Manchester United faced the challenge of Solya from the Ukrainian Super League at home. Due to Manchester United's upset 0:1 loss to Feyenoord in the first round of the Europa League, this home game The second round of the group stage has become nothing to lose.

Mourinho made some adjustments to the lineup. Argentina goalkeeper Romero officially replaced De Gea as the cup goalkeeper, Rojo replaced Luke Shaw, and right back Fosu Mensah rotated Valencia. The other positions are all with The strongest lineup.

Fan Kerry is not eligible to participate and can only watch from the sidelines.

Manchester United's offense has adapted to the presence of Van Kerry. The offense without Van Kerry is very awkward. Whether it is Rashford or Martial, the breakthroughs and shooting from the wing cannot compare with Van Kerry, which means that they are completely unable to afford it. To the tactical effect brought by Van Carey on the wing.

If the effect cannot be achieved, it will become a situation where you cannot score points.

In the 45 minutes of the first half, even though Manchester United gained 70% of the ball, they were unable to break Solya's goal. On the contrary, the opponent's offense was more efficient. Two of the three counterattacks hit the goal.

If it weren't for Romero's heroic form, Manchester United would probably have conceded the first goal at home.

This shows the importance of Van Kerry to Manchester United.

The game lasted until the 69th minute when Rooney, who came on as a substitute, assisted Ibrahimovic to score.

And this goal was also the only goal in the game.

Although Mourinho doesn't want to see the team rely too much on Van Kerry and Ibrahimovic for scoring, some things are just like that. Who allows Manchester United to only have two players who can take on big responsibilities?

Van Carey is still young and will definitely be able to take on greater responsibilities in the future. The problem is that Ibrahimovic is already 35 years old and will be 36 next season. The biggest problem brought about by the increase in age is the need for playing time. Reduce, otherwise it is likely to cause immeasurable injuries.

At the end of the game, Mourinho, who won the game, can finally breathe a sigh of relief. If he fails to win in the two rounds of the Europa League group stage, even if he is ranked first in the league, he will be questioned by those unscrupulous reporters who avoid the important and take the easy.

He is able to turn a blind eye. The problem is that the top management of the club who do not understand football will be affected.

Fortunately, the opponents in the Europa League group stage are not particularly strong, and we can still qualify from the group by maintaining 100% concentration.

After the second round of the Europa League group stage, the Manchester United team quickly turned their attention to the seventh round of the league, facing Stoke City at home.

※※※

Van Kerry did not participate in the Europa League group stage on Thursday night. He is in very good condition to prepare for the league. Head coach Mourinho is also confident about defeating 'Sky City' Stoke City at home.

Just the night before the league started, Van Carey received an unexpected phone call.

"Hi Kerry, I am Danny Blind, the head coach of the Dutch national team and the father of your Manchester United teammate Daley Blind."

The other party announced his home, and Fan Kairui frowned:"Hello, Uncle Danny, are you okay?"

Actually, he knew what it meant when he heard Old Blind announcing his home address. The international match day in October is coming next week. As the head coach of the Dutch national team, Old Blind called personally and must have invited Dutch nationals. He plays...

Old Blind's voice reached Van Kerry's ears very clearly through the loudspeaker:"As usual, I have to ask you if you are willing to represent the Dutch national team in the World Cup qualifiers that kick off on the next international match day."

Previously, Van Kerry did think about playing for the Dutch national team to fulfill his grandma's dream, but he was hesitant when he really had the opportunity to play for the Dutch team.

【PS: This is just a foreshadowing and will not violate previous votes. The protagonist will definitely represent the Netherlands in the World Cup. 】

FIFA stipulates that once you represent a national team in an international A-level event, you cannot represent other national teams.

On the one hand, it is grandma's dream, on the other hand, it is inner persistence. He is very entangled and does not know how to make a choice. promise?

Or refuse?

Old Blind thought Van Kerry was too excited so he didn't speak. He smiled and continued:"Everyone sees your ability. On the second international match day next week, you will be a guest at the Stade de France to challenge France. The team really needs it." Assaulter like you……"

Fan Kerry closed his eyes and sighed, but did not reply to the other party for a long time.

When Old Blind saw that Van Kerry had not spoken for a long time, he raised his eyebrows and vaguely guessed something. He asked tentatively:"Kerry, do you not want to represent the Netherlands in the World Cup qualifiers?"

As the head coach of the Dutch national team, he also paid attention In the world football news, there are news reports about Fan Kerry's Chinese descendants, but he does not think that Fan Kerry can join the Chinese men's football team. First of all, China does not allow dual nationality. Born in the Netherlands, if you have Dutch citizenship, you will automatically give up your Chinese nationality. Without Chinese citizenship, How to represent the Chinese men’s football team?

Moreover, there are many well-known players in world football who have dual nationalities. It is also difficult to represent which national team to participate in international A-level events. He knows it very well and it is very common.

Fan Kerry said tangledly:"Uncle Danny, to be honest with you, I really want to represent the Netherlands in the World Cup qualifiers and fulfill my grandma's dream, but... I……"

At this point, he felt that he had nothing to say, so he changed the topic:"Uncle Danny, can you give me some time to think about it?"

Old Blind paused for a few seconds, smiled and said slowly:"I can give You have time to think about it, but I hope you can bring me good news before the international break next month, okay?"

"Okay, bye Uncle Danny."

Listening to the 'beep' sound of hanging up, Fan Kerry fell into deep thought.

……

One day passed quickly, and Manchester United faced the challenge of Stoke City at Old Trafford. Van Kerry was affected by his emotions. His performance in the game was not very good, he made too many mistakes, and was even almost stopped by Shaqiri. The ball launched a fatal counterattack.

Mourinho frowned, feeling very surprised. He remembered that his disciple Van Carey's training quality was very good in the previous two days. How come the league is like this today?

The Manchester United fans in the audience and in front of the TV were puzzled. Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai said solemnly:"What happened to Van Carey today? Is the decline in form too serious? He did not play in the Europa League in midweek. It shouldn't be!"

Affected by Van Carey's decline in form, Manchester United's offense was in a mess and did not have the dominant performance in the previous rounds of the league.

By the sixth minute of the second half, Van Carey still had not found his form, and Mourinho decided to replace him with Rashford.

Mourinho wanted to know what happened to his disciple that caused him to be in poor condition, so he pulled Van Kerry aside and asked in a low voice:"Kerry, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?""

"Actually, it's nothing, I just have a difficult problem waiting for me to make a decision."

"What decision?"

"Sorry, Uncle Jose, it's not convenient for me to talk. Mourinho patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of concern:"Do you want me to give you two days off?""

"That's not necessary……"

Van Kerry returned to the bench and sat down, and Faria asked Mourinho:"Jose, what's going on?"

"I am not sure as well. Mourinho looked back at the bench and said playfully:"Kerry is so handsome, so there are probably two stunning beauties waiting for him to make a difficult decision." Faria gave an expression like this:"I really envy his appearance.""
