However, a 4-0 thrashing of Bremen did not put United at the top of the table, as Barcelona thrashed Sofialevski 5-0 at Camp Nou!

The long-awaited new season of the Champions League started with a crazy massacre! In addition to Manchester United's 4:0 massacre of Bremen, Barcelona 5:0 Sofia Levski, Bayern 4:0 Spartak Moscow at home, and Shakhtar Donetsk 4:0 at Roma at home.

However, there were also two giants who had a bad start, Liverpool drew 0:0 away to PSV Eindhoven, and Inter Milan lost 0:1 away to Sporting Lisbon.

Manchester United fans expected Manchester United to dominate the Group A group stage, but Barcelona were the first.

However, at the press conference, Ferguson still expressed enough affirmation of Manchester United's results: "Obviously, Bremen are stronger, Sofia Liwski won relatively poorly, I am very happy with the result, Bremen deserve enough respect from us, I think Barcelona will have a big headache when they meet them." ”

"We are going to meet Barcelona away in the next round, are you ready?"

'It was two league games later and now we need to think about playing Arsenal at home, then Reading and then Barcelona, so it's them to be afraid of, we have nothing to fear.

The big win over Bremen gave Ferguson full of confidence, although Rooney's form is a little worse, but Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo are in hot form, as long as one of these two people breaks out, Manchester United can win any opponent, what about Barcelona, can they win Bremen by four goals?

However, Ferguson still took the opportunity to complain to the FA, "After playing the Champions League, you have to play Arsenal immediately at the weekend, such a schedule does feel incredible, but over the years, whether it is Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea, everyone is not surprised, every year the leagues of other countries will concede for the Champions League, but every year the English team has to ......play like this"

He also learned Mourinho's trick and put pressure on the referee.

Of course, in the Premier League, the treatment is equal, and Arsenal has only played a big game in the Champions League group stage, but compared to Manchester United's slaughter of Bremen, Arsenal's away game against another Bundesliga powerhouse, Hamburg, is quite difficult, if it is not for the Hamburg team being sent off halfway, Arsenal may not be able to win the opponent. And in this game, Arsenal was also the main force in addition to Henry, and there was no reservation at all.

Thomas Schaff thinks that Manchester United are too strong for Bremen to lose, while the Hamburg coach believes that the referee dominated the outcome of the game and that Hamburg should not concede three points at home.

It's just that these are already facts that cannot be changed......

After the first round of the Champions League group stage, Dong Fangzhuo unsurprisingly temporarily became the top scorer in the Champions League with 3 goals, and the second place was Milan's Inzaghi with 2 goals and Barcelona's Ronaldinho with 2 goals......

In addition, Dong Fangzhuo also had an assist, which made him easily win the title of the best player in the Champions League in the first round.

Now, his stage is not limited to England, Europe has long been his stage, and on both stages, he is not inferior to anyone.

※※※※

Ferguson only gave his squad half a day off before regrouping for the weekend's home game against Arsenal.

After four consecutive wins in the league, Ferguson still wants five consecutive wins, Arsenal is also four or two wins, if Arsenal is killed, then only Liverpool is left, he hopes that Manchester United can kill one competitor after another, and finally only Manchester United is left at the top of the standings.

Although Arsenal won four or two, their victory was hard-won, with all but three of their first round wins by a narrow one-goal victory. This season's Thierry Henry is obviously not in as good shape as last season, and is prone to injuries, but fortunately Van Persie came out to share a certain goalscoring task.

In stark contrast to Manchester United, Manchester United's trident has a terrible number of goals in the league, Dong Fangzhuo 5, Ronaldo 5, Rooney 3, the three of them have scored 13 goals combined, that is, in the top five European leagues, their data is also the first, and the second most scored goals happens to be their previous Champions League opponent Bremen, who was slaughtered by Manchester United 4:0......

So, about the weekend's league game, the news media have said: "Wenger wants to get a win at Old Trafford, at least until the next away road, they can't get points here." ”

"Wash it up and wait to be rubbed at Old Trafford!"

'Arsenal, who are still rebuilding, can't be an opponent for Manchester United, Chelsea is.

Arsene Wenger never thought about how important the 'gun' was, and the reason why Manchester United is so favored by the media now is because Manchester United now have three good guns that are invincible, and Arsenal also have them, but it is still unknown whether Henry will be able to catch this duel at the weekend, and although Van Persie has performed well in the Champions League, he still loves Henry's gun the most.

However, he is also used to being looked down upon by the outside world, and in recent years, Arsenal has been unable to stand Manchester United even at home, not to mention away.

After four rounds, the famous British William Hill Spinach Company has adjusted the odds of the Premier League's top scorer, and Dong Fangzhuo has suppressed Henry and is at the top of the list.

Dong Fangzhuo's odds to win the Premier League's top scorer are 2.15 to 1, Henry is second, 3:00 to 1, Shevchenko is third at 4:00 to 1, Ronaldo is 5:00 to 1, and Rooney is 10:00 to 1.

Manchester United actually occupies three of the top five scorer odds, and the strikers on Liverpool's side did not even enter the list. In fact, referring to last season's final standings, except for Shevchenko, these people occupy the top five positions, and it is not surprising that this season with the strengthening of Manchester United.

Although Rooney's performance in the Champions League was sluggish, but in the weekend league, Ferguson still put Rooney in the starting lineup, although Rooney couldn't score, but he was still very good in other aspects, Rossi could only sit sullenly on the bench, in addition, Ferguson also made some rotations, Giggs started, rotated Scholes, on the back line, Pique replaced Ferdinand, Evra was replaced by Richardson, Smith entered the bench, Manchester United is really strong now!

Lineker had to sigh: "It's not what it used to be, and Ferguson dares to rotate in the game against Arsenal!" ”
