Both Chelsea and Manchester United are honing their teams frantically before the Premier League opens. This start is crucial for both sides.

However, for Mourinho, who has just arrived in England, he has no record to convince the public. The English media and peers will not pay too much attention to the honors of last season. For them, those trophies are just past glory and do not represent anything.

Sir Alex Ferguson is also a triple champion, and the Premier League championship and FA Cup championship are much stronger than the Portuguese Super League boss and the Portuguese Cup.

Anyway, there are many people who don't like Mourinho and Chelsea. The problem of hating the rich is not just one or two people, but many people like it.

As long as those who are used to solving problems with money have trouble, these people who have been watching coldly will immediately swarm in.

Have you seen a pack of wolves? Those who have a critical heart and can't find a way to vent are like a pack of wolves, waiting to bite you to death at any time.

Mourinho ignored these comments, because you can never manipulate everyone's thoughts, especially those who don't like you.

Of course, Lin Yi responded more directly to the nonsense of the critics, "It's okay, don't fight with a group of idiots, that's just asking for trouble."

Playing well in the first game of the new season is what Mourinho needs to consider now. As for how those reporters make noises in the newspapers, he doesn't want to know at all. Anyway, anyone with a brain knows what they will say, which is those old things that have been turned over and over.

But Mourinho really wants to thank Ranieri for the achievements he made last season, because he doesn't have to work hard to prepare for the Community Shield.

Chelsea, which has nothing in its hands, can now sit back and watch the fight. It seems that it is not so bad that it gained nothing last season. At least before the start of the new season, Chelsea does not need to mobilize a large number of troops to prepare for a deadly battle, while Manchester United and Arsenal, the old enemies, will start the war first.

If Ferguson doesn't want to be at a disadvantage in the fight with Mourinho, then the person he least wants to lose in the Premier League is probably the French old man from Arsenal. The war between the two of them has long become a beautiful landscape in the Premier League.

Of course, there is nothing to see about these two old men, but their fights on and off the field have long become the most delicious meal in the Premier League.

Before Chelsea came out, those tabloid reporters and columnists looked forward to the collision between Manchester United and Arsenal every season.

Because as long as these two old men meet, there will definitely be no lack of news, and every time they meet, there will be constant saliva.

At that time, Wenger would not show his French elegance, he would choose tit-for-tat. The war of words between him and Ferguson is no longer a new thing. From refuting each other's lineup and playing style, these two old guys can even argue about each other's clothing taste.

These are the two greatest old guys in the Premier League. Not only do their respective team records make people feel jealous, but their news effects in the eyes of the media are also hundreds of times stronger than many people. It can be said that these two guys are the precious wealth of the entire Premier League, and no one can compare.

But only before Mourinho appeared, because the Portuguese was also the focus of the media, although this focus is not necessarily good or bad.

But now these two old guys are going to meet in the Community Shield again. Maybe Ferguson and Wenger are cursing God's arrangement.

When they both have to face the pressure from Chelsea at the same time, the old enemies have to take the lead in a bloody battle, which is really cheap for the Portuguese.

But at this time, if you want someone between Ferguson and Wenger to take a step back and give up the Community Shield trophy, it is nothing more than dreaming. Can they be willing to lose to each other? Isn't that bullshit? Even if he breaks his head, Ferguson can't lose to his old enemy in the game.

On August 8, 2004, the battle between Ferguson and Wenger began again. Both sides wanted to use this game to make their first league debut.

Both sides played with most of their main players. It can be seen that both wanted to make a good start. For those who are a little superstitious, the start may be better than anything else.

But it is obvious that Arsenal, who won the Premier League championship last season, took the initiative on the field, especially their sharp offensive line, which completely controlled the rhythm of the game. This time, Reyes, who was not used to the local climate last season, finally showed his excellent state after a summer of polishing.

Throughout the first half, Arsenal basically launched continuous attacks, and Manchester United's goalkeeper Howard became the busiest person on the field.

Henry, Bergkamp, ​​Pennant, Reyes, these beastly guys, used powerful shots to test Howard's reaction again and again.

If it weren't for the American's high and low blocks, perhaps Manchester United's goal would have been knocked open by the opponent long ago. Even the host who was responsible for commentating the game kept praising Howard, saying that in this game, it seemed as if Howard was possessed by Schmeichel, and he was simply Manchester United's new goalkeeper!

I just don’t know what kind of expression Ferguson would have when he heard this praise. I guess he couldn’t laugh because his team was in such a mess and without Ruud van Nistelrooy’s deterrent power in the opponent’s penalty area, those Arsenal's defenders can press out with impunity.

Alan Smith and Saha couldn't cause any trouble for German goalkeeper Lehmann in the frontcourt, and their shots were always far away from the goal.

It was really a kind of luck that Manchester United could hold on to a 0:0 result in the first half, but this kind of luck cannot stay with them forever. At the beginning of the second half, Van Persie, who replaced Henry, got in front of Howard. A moon-looking header knocked on the door of Manchester United.

When the Dutchman headed the ball towards goal, there wasn't even a Manchester United player around him to keep up with him, a mistake that made Ferguson absolutely furious.

This old guy, in front of all the fans, slammed the water bottle in his hand. His anger shocked everyone!

1:0, this goal almost pushed Ferguson to a dead end. The old Scottish man substituted three people in a row to strengthen the attack.

Saha was replaced by Rooney. When the Frenchman walked off the field, Ferguson didn't even stand up and pat him on the shoulder. It could be seen that Ferguson had lost confidence in this shooter who once shined in the Premier League, or maybe he There is no longer any patience to wait for the other party to explode.

And after Rooney came on the field, he immediately made those die-hard Manchester United fans forget the existence of Saha. His first touch of the ball made Lehmann make a world-class save. Even so, that football It still hit the goalpost hard, and Alan Smith followed up with a follow-up shot in time.

In less than three minutes, the score on the field had been tied by Manchester United. It took Rooney less than three minutes to conquer the fans with his performance.

When the little fat man waved his hands and celebrated the goal with Alan Smith, the Manchester United fans on the sidelines had already called his name affectionately.

"England's striker ace in the next ten years, maybe with his presence, we don't have to worry about Owen's injury, because this kid can score more goals, just like his performance on the court today, he can definitely become this The brightest star in the Premier League this season.”

When the host evaluated Rooney's performance on the court, he did not hesitate to praise him. It can be seen that Rooney has successfully integrated into the team.

And Ronaldo, who created this shooting opportunity for him, showed his sharpness in the European Championships in the next two or three breakthroughs.

Now no one continues to criticize his original high transfer fee. Everyone is praising Ferguson for making another visionary deal.

However, they are not the only young people who shine in this arena. There are also many new guns produced in Arsenal's arsenal. Especially after Henry left the field, the entire Arsenal frontcourt became completely dominated by young people. And their core has been replaced by a Spanish boy.

Fabregas, a name that was still unfamiliar before the start of the game, used his performance on the court to once again prove Wenger's ability to discover young players. In the subsequent thirty minutes of the game, he completely controlled He controlled the rhythm on the court and became a well-deserved commander.

In the 70th and 78th minutes, it was this kid from Spain who broke the balance on the field with two extremely penetrating through balls.

Reyes and Ashley Cole each got a chance to face Howard alone, and neither of them wasted Cesc Fabregas' pass.

A push shot, a kick in the crotch, and two goals in eight minutes. With a score of 3:1, Ferguson had no choice but to return to the coaching bench and sit upright this time.

Although Manchester United also launched a fierce counterattack, when facing Lehmann, Rooney's header and Ronaldo's long shot from the outside were saved, and Giggs' direct free kick was also very special. Unluckily, it hit the crossbar, and Manchester United's chance of winning was gone.

3:1, this score remained until the final whistle sounded, and Ferguson could only watch helplessly as Arsenal lifted the championship trophy.

Wenger's team lifted the Community Shield for the 11th time. Although this trophy is not heavy, for him, it is a blessing of good luck.

As for the media's questions to Ferguson after the game, they were all rejected by the old Scottish man because his mood was already terrible at the moment.

Losing to his old enemy before the official start of the new season is not a good sign for Ferguson, and the team's technical and tactical problems when playing against the wind also give the old Scottish man a warning. Wake up, his Manchester United is not a perfect team yet.

When young players lose their way, there is no one in the Manchester United team who can guide them. Keane, a tough guy, cannot appear. It is indeed a loss, but even Ferguson cannot guarantee that the Irishman will remain unscathed throughout the season. Stand on the field and direct without any damage.

According to that guy's fiery temper, he has to receive a few red cards every season, but once such a situation occurs, who can be the soul on the field?

Ronaldo? Rooney? Or do they rely on Giggs to direct them? I'm afraid even Ferguson himself can't answer this question. He can only continue to explore.

Manchester United's problems cannot be solved in a day or two. This defeat is a disaster for many diehard Manchester United fans.

Losing to Arsenal is not terrible, but the level of the whole team on the field does not seem to be much better than last season.

This is the most worrying problem for Manchester United fans. You know, in the first five rounds of the league, the teams that Manchester United will face are not weak teams.

If there is a chance, Manchester United may become a chaser on the standings from the beginning of the league, which will be very passive.

If the start in the league is not smooth, it will not be a good thing for Manchester United, which is gradually adjusting its personnel age structure.

Young people who can't stand the pressure may face a test of their hearts. Even if there is a collapse, it is not alarmist.

I just don't know how the old Sir Alex will deal with this unfavorable situation. Maybe this Scottish old man will once again show his magical wisdom?

Who knows, maybe as a Manchester United fan, the best way now is to find a bigger church and pray for the fate of the Red Devils.

However, in the entire Community Shield match, many English media once again discovered a large number of new players from the two teams.

Fabregas, Van Persie, Ronaldo, Rooney, these players may become the brightest stars of tomorrow in the Premier League in the next few years.

However, when the newspapers mentioned the performance of these players on the field, many newspapers and reporters mentioned Lin Yi's name intentionally or unintentionally. It can be seen that these media are selecting future opponents for Lin Yi, and they also want to see what the transfer market's bid king has.

If Lin Yi can't conquer these picky guys with his performance on the field, maybe he will be labeled as high-paid and low-skilled by these people.

While these media are praising Ronaldo and others, they are also indirectly transferring a kind of pressure to Lin Yi, but there is nothing they can do about it. Who made Lin Yi's transfer value raised so high by Chelsea? Even if he doesn't want to be the target of others' attention, it is impossible.

Many people are waiting to watch the first match between Manchester United and Chelsea to see if the black-haired boy is really more practical than Rooney.

Mourinho would not miss such a match, but he was not at the scene, and only watched this peak showdown through TV broadcast.

"The highest level of confrontation in the Premier League, it seems that we do have many opponents this season." Mourinho said to Brito after watching the game.

Indeed, this is not the Portuguese Super League. Porto only needs to pay attention to Benfica and Sporting Lisbon every season. This is the Premier League, where traditional giants and emerging teams are mixed in. It is not uncommon for strong teams to capsize in the gutter. Chelsea will have many opponents.

It can be said that Chelsea must be in high spirits from the beginning of the league, otherwise, no one can guarantee what will happen during the game.

However, after watching Manchester United's performance, Brito seems to be less worried about the first game. The Red Devils' performance seems to be very sluggish.

"If Manchester United is very excited, I won't worry, but now, I have to beware of these guys' sudden explosion."

Mourinho is not as optimistic as Brito, because when Ferguson refused to be interviewed, he could see what the old man was thinking. How could such a person who is very persistent in winning allow his team to be so depressed? He will definitely accumulate strength.

Losing to Arsenal has already embarrassed him. Will this old guy allow the team to continue losing? The first game will definitely be difficult.

Although Manchester United lost three goals today, apart from the two passes made by Fabregas after he came on the court, there are not many loopholes in their defense.

The injured defenders of last season have mostly recovered after the summer adjustment, which makes Manchester United's defense much stronger.

It's just that Ferguson did not send all the main players to the back line. Only Brown and Gary Neville started, and Sylvester was on in the second half.

The 1:3 loss meant that the performance of the defense line was not outstanding, but these guys just ignored those two passes, and the rest of the time they were very stable. Perhaps Fabregas's sudden appearance caught them off guard, or the desire to attack made them press too far forward.

At least they did not show the same sense of powerlessness as they did against Porto last season, and don't forget that Ferdinand has not played yet.

Although the England's top central defender did not play in the Community Shield, it does not mean that he will also be absent in the first round of the league. Judging from the guy's performance in the European Championship, Mourinho dare not say whether the old Sir Alex Ferguson is setting an ambush for himself or hiding his strength.

After all, the Community Shield is not a top honor, and it is not impossible for the old guy to keep a hand at a critical moment.

If Ferdinand can play, Brown can also start, and cooperate with Sylvester and Gary Neville, then the Red Devils' defense line is not a decoration.

Even if Mourinho is asked to break through this defense, he will have to work hard, because the current Manchester United is no longer the incomplete army of last season.

This match at Stamford Bridge will be a fierce battle, and even Mourinho himself cannot predict who will be the winner. . .

(Tonight the men's football team will play against Qatar. If they win, they will basically qualify for the group stage, and I should prepare for the tenth update...)
