Chapter 100: The Calm Before the Storm

Matthew's life was a whirlwind of training, matches, and media appearances. He was the face of Manchester United, and everyone wanted a piece of him. But amidst all the chaos, he felt a sense of isolation.

The pressure of being the team's star player weighed heavily on his shoulders. He knew he had to perform, but the constant scrutiny was taking its toll.

One night, as he lay in bed, he couldn't shake off the feeling of anxiety. He thought about the upcoming match against Chelsea, the team sitting second in the league, just two points behind United. The thought of facing their potent attack and stingy defense made his mind race.

Suddenly, his phone buzzed. It was a text from an unknown number: "You're not good enough, Matthew. You'll never win the league."

Matthew's heart raced as he read the message over and over. Who was this? And why were they trying to unsettle him?
