Sir及Gary 黯然面對Nicky 的離去
2004-07-28 15:33:30
面對Nicky Butt 即將離去,Sir Alex Ferguson及Gary Neville紛紛給予最真誠的祝
福。
相信Butt 將在本週三以可能只有250萬英鎊的價錢加盟Newcastle,如今只剩下他個人
合約及身體檢查還未完成。
Neville說:「Nicky和我在很久以前就是很好的朋友。」
「球員的離去是必然的,而你也會給予他們祝福。不過當那個離開你的人是你很親密的
戰友時,要很灑脫的告別是件很難的事。」
「Nicky加盟了一個大俱樂部,我相信他在那裡會表現得很好。」
Ferguson也感謝Butt多年來為球隊付出的一切,並且認為Newcastle撿到了便宜。
「Nicky將會是他們超值的「新人」,」Ferguson說道。「他在我們的球隊中表現十分
出色。」
「他們撿到了便宜,真的,至少我認為這個價格太超值了。我希望他能夠繼續踢下去,
並且享受更多美好的時光。」
Ferguson承認上賽季結束前他們就已經決定如果球隊合適的話,他們將會讓Butt自由
選擇加盟。
他說:「由於我無法在陣容中選用他而造成難題,Nicky也接受這樣的情況。」
「他想要的出場機會多過我可以給予他的。」
「年輕球員如Darren Fletcher正在不斷成長,中場還有其他和他扮演一樣角色的球員
如Djemba-Djemba、Kleberson、Scholes,還有別忘了Phil Neville。」
「我們唯一能做的就是讓他離開去找尋他的另一個事業,並且祝福他一切安好。」
Butt當年14歲的時候就加盟曼聯,Ferguson說:「Nicky還是和年輕時一樣,他的態度
及個性從來沒有改變過。」
Sir Alex Ferguson and Gary Neville have passed on their best wishes to Nicky Bu
tt as he prepares to leave Manchester United for Newcastle.
Butt is expected at Newcastle on Wednesday after the clubs agreed a fee - belie
ved to be £2.5m - for the 29-year-old England midfielder. He is due to finalis
e personal terms and take a medical at St James' Park.
Neville said: "Nicky and I have become the best of friends over the years.
"Some players do move on and you wish them all the best. But it is particularly
difficult when you have become close to someone.
"Nicky has joined a big club and I am sure he will do well."
Ferguson thanked Butt for his services and added that Newcastle would be signin
g a "bargain".
"Nicky will be a great signing for them,'' said Ferguson. "He has been a fantas
tic performer for our club.
"They have got a bargain, really, as far as I am concerned. I hope he goes on a
nd enjoys many great years."
Ferguson revealed they decided at the end of last season that Butt could move o
n if the deal was right.
He added: "We had a difficulty in me not picking him and Nicky accepting that s
ituation.
"He wanted more appearances than I could possibly promise him.
"Young players like Darren Fletcher are breaking through. Then there are others
in that role like Djemba-Djemba, Kleberson, [Paul] Scholes and not forgetting
Phil Neville.
"The common sense verdict was to let him get on with another career and we wish
him well."
Butt joined United as a 14-year-old and Ferguson said: "Nicky is the same today
as he was then. His attitude and character has never changed."
