Chapter 574 - 0237 Kevin-style Backcourt Offense (Subscribe Please)
"Darren, Darren!!!"
While Cassano celebrated his goal, Ferguson waved at Fletcher.
"Boss, what do you need?"
Fletcher jogged to the side to ask.
"You can move more freely, but I have only one demand!"
Ferguson pointed to Real Madrid’s number 10 and said, "That’s to damn well mark him tightly. If he goes to the front, you follow him to the front; if he moves back, follow him back, and even if he goes to goalkeep, you damn well stand in the box and defend him. You must have more patience than you have with your girlfriend and kids, got it?"
"Yes, boss!"
Fletcher nodded earnestly.
To him, Ferguson was no different from a father.
It was really hard to say who received more care from Ferguson, Ronaldo or Fletcher.
After Beckham left for Madrid, Fletcher received Ferguson’s strong support. He still played in over thirty matches each season even when he wasn’t performing well. When former Manchester United captain Keane lashed out at his teammates in an interview, Fletcher, who was underperforming at the time, was specially named by Keane.
