Star Card System

Mourinho likes summer vacations, and this fact is well known in the Manchester United team.

In order to join Xia Xing, Mourinho personally visited and invited him. Many people also know this.

As soon as he joined the team, he was made the third captain. It was obvious that he was given special care and training.

In comparison, Pogba is slightly worse.

After all, the French midfielder was introduced by the club management.

Regarding Pogba's joining, even Sir Alex Ferguson personally communicated with the Glazer family and would never recommend buying him back.

But ultimately to no avail.

And Mourinho couldn't refute the new club's face, so he could only agree to the transfer.

After all, this transfer does not affect his other buying plans. Anyway, Mourinho will not stop him from spending the boss's money.

Moreover, Pogba also performed well after joining the team, and Mourinho was quite satisfied.

Although he doesn't like to return to defense, he is very useful in offense, so Mourinho turns a blind eye.

But Mourinho sees Pogba's eagerness to win in Xia Xing.

However, things did not happen openly, and it was not easy for him to stand up and mediate.

After all, normal competition within the team is also reasonable.

So in the next period of time, Mourinho paid great attention to controlling the relationship between the two young talented players.

After defeating Manchester City on September 10, Manchester United ushered in an intensive schedule.

It is also a three-front battle.

The Europa League group stage is approaching, and the English League Cup has officially begun.

A few days ago, the Europa League group stage draw ceremony was held, and the group results were announced.

Manchester United's Europa League group stage opponents are: Feyenoord, Fenerbahce and Solya.

The result of this draw was very unsatisfactory, and several opponents were difficult to deal with.

Feyenoord ranked third in the Eredivisie last season. Although they are in a period of transition between old and new, many talented players in the team still maintain the strength of European giants.

Fenerbahce, second in the Turkish Super League last season, was only five points behind the top spot. There are many well-known former European stars in the team, and they will be very strong once they break out.

Solya ranked second in the Ukrainian Super League last season. Although there are no top stars in the team, he has a tough style of play and strong impact, which is difficult to deal with.

Facing these three opponents, Manchester United must cheer up and there is no game where they can relax.

The Europa League starts, the Premier League matches continue, and the EFL Cup is also interspersed.

In the next period of time, Manchester United started playing double games a week.

On September 15, Manchester United will usher in the first round of the Europa League group stage and play away against Feyenoord.

On September 18, in the fifth round of the Premier League, Manchester United played Watford away.

On September 24, in the sixth round of the Premier League, Manchester United faced the defending champion Leicester City at home.

On September 27, in the third round of the English League Cup, they played away against the low-level team Northampton.

On September 30, in the second round of the Europa League group stage, they played away against Sorya.

On October 2, in the seventh round of the Premier League, Stoke City faced the challenge at home.

In the next 18 days, Manchester United will play 6 games.

One game in three days is a big test for the team's rotation and the players' physical fitness.

After defeating Manchester City on September 10, the players took a short rest before heading to the Netherlands one day in advance.

Here they met an old acquaintance.

Van Persie!

Several opponents in the Europa League group stage this time are closely related to Van Persie.

He is now playing for Feyenoord, which can be regarded as a return to his roots. After all, he is a star who came out of Feyenoord's youth training camp.

The opponent in this game, Manchester United, was the team he had played for before, and also won the coveted Premier League championship under Sir Alex Ferguson.

There is another opponent, Fenerbahce. He almost joined the Turkish Super League last summer, but in the end he chose to stay in the Premier League.

And it was this choice that allowed him to reach the highest peak of his career.

This summer, he left Leicester City on a free transfer, returned to the Netherlands, and joined Feyenoord.

Now that Manchester United has come to the Netherlands, Van Persie has come directly to the hotel to meet with everyone.

During the few seasons he played for Manchester United, he got along well with everyone.

At that time, Manchester United had Sir Alex Ferguson and was very cohesive.

"Wayne, I noticed you seem to have gained weight, haha! I really miss the days when we were partners on the front line!"

"Carrick, how is your injury? If it's not healed, just take a good rest. I really don't want to see you. You pass the ball really steadily."

"De Gea, I will definitely shoot you tomorrow! Hahahaha!"

Robin van Persie was very enthusiastic when he saw his old teammates from Manchester United.

Rooney and Carrick also came up to say hello and joke with Van Persie.

However, it is not these old Manchester United teammates that Van Persie treats with the most enthusiasm, but Xia Xing.

"Xia!"

Van Persie hugged Xia Xing and hugged him hard!

"You guy, I really didn't expect to leave! Let me tell you, I was originally hesitant whether to stick with Leicester City for one year, but when I saw Kanter leaving, I was a little shaken, and then you left too. That’s too much! You’re gone, why should I stay?”

Looking at Van Persie who was very close to him in front of him, Xia Xing was very moved.

From entering Feyenoord's first team to now, Van Persie has never been a fuel-efficient lamp.

He is extremely talented, but has an aloof personality.

At the beginning, he was even isolated by his teammates and hit by the head coach in Feyenoord, and he almost had no ball to play.

Later, he went to the Premier League, and he had conflicts with his teammates or coaches in Arsenal and Manchester United.

But in Leicester City, he became a good boy and got along well with everyone.

Especially Xia Xing.

As the third captain of Leicester City, Xia Xing has a very high prestige in the team.

The two old captains relied on their qualifications to intimidate the team, while Xia Xing relied purely on personal charm and excellent skills.

Especially Van Persie, who received countless passes from Xia Xing throughout the season and scored more than 20 goals in all fronts during the season.

In the end, Leicester City won the five-time champion honor, and Van Persie also contributed.

And all he got was inseparable from Xia Xing.

"Xia, how is your stay at Manchester United?"

"Everything is fine, everyone treats me very well."

"Well, that's good. Although these guys are sometimes unreliable, they are very nice people and good teammates, haha."

In the cafe on the first floor, Van Persie had a good chat with several old Manchester United teammates and Xia Xing.

At this moment, they all seemed to have returned to that unforgettable period.

The former Manchester United players remembered the passionate era when Sir Alex Ferguson was in charge of the coaching seal.

Xia Xing's mind was also full of Leicester City's past.

The past years were really good.

Everyone chatted for more than an hour, and it was time to say goodbye.

"Robin, we are much stronger than you, and we will definitely beat you tomorrow!"

"Nonsense! I will definitely beat you tomorrow with me! Wait!"

Everyone chatted for a few more words and sent Van Persie out of the hotel door.

While waving goodbye, Van Persie looked at Xia Xing.

"Well? Robin, do you have anything to say?"

"Well."

"Okay."

Looking at Xia Xing in front of him, Van Persie put away his laughter and looked very serious.

"Xia, although the season in Leicester City was short, I had a very happy time.

"You are the soul of that team. Because of you, the team achieved the miracle of five championships.

"That is what I dreamed of, but I didn't expect to get it in Leicester City.

"Looking back on last season, it was so wonderful.

"Xia, thank you for making my dream come true!

"I used to be your teammate,

"I am lucky.

"I wish you all the best,

"I wish you win the world,

"My brother!"
