With the arrival at Old Trafford, Van Bizhuang and Manchester United have officially entered the stage of preparing for the new season.

Because of the summer World Cup, for the Premier League teams, the new season of the league seems to be somewhat tight, especially for the giants, due to the large number of international players in the team, the impact is also the greatest, many teams can only train while waiting for the return of players.

Manchester United is the same, but the situation is slightly better, since August, most of the players have returned to Carrington training base one after another, and Fan Bizhuang can be regarded as all the new teammates, but in the matter of integrating into the team, the process is not fast, this is also a matter of no way, the time is too short, even with the help of Neville and others, as well as the "care" of manager Ferguson, but to be fully familiar with and integrate into a new tactical system, it is not possible to do it in just a few days.

On the training ground, the biggest problem of Fan Bizhuang and his new teammates is that the degree of tacit understanding is not high enough, and there are often some low-level mistakes, but Fan Bizhuang's strength level has been recognized by everyone.

This is what makes Ferguson both relieved and helpless. Fortunately, Fan Bizhuang did not change a new football environment that led to unsuitable, the level of competition and state have declined, helplessly, football is a team sport after all, even if Fan Bizhuang has a strong ability to fight alone, but in the game can not always play an important role in the overall situation, and one point, in the official league, he can not always be detached from the team as a player to entrust it - with Fan Bizhuang's current attitude, it is enough to act as a cavalry in the game, But if it is used as a regular workhorse, it will have many flaws.

But this is also something that can't be helped, if you want to give full play to Fan Bizhuang's ability and completely integrate with the team, it takes a long time to run in - and what Manchester United and Fan Bizhuang lack now is time, Ferguson can only take one step at a time and train with the game.

Fan Bizhuang is also very aware of his own problems, but also feel very helpless, after talking to the head coach and Neville and others, in the daily training and team games, Fan Bizhuang began to deliberately reduce the nature of personal performances, and more is to run, and teammates to seek cooperation, although it is still a series of mistakes, but the effect is a lot better - deliberately give up their strengths, and choose to do run-in with the team, the effect will gradually come out, at least Fan Bizhuang is familiar with the habits of most of his teammates to receive and pass the ball.

The clock ticked by in the first weekend of August, with the Reds playing their first unofficial game since the squad was assembled.

Due to the tight schedule, Manchester United did not schedule too many warm-up matches before the start of the new season, with only two games at full play, one against Championship mid-table side Bristol in Aston. The Stade du Gat, and the other game, is against last season's Premier League champions Chelsea at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium – the latter is the appetizer of English football before the start of each season, the Community Shield, which is played by last season's league winners against the FA Cup winners, and last season, Manchester United missed out on the league title but won the FA Cup, so this year's Community Shield title will be between Chelsea and Manchester United.

However, for Haoqiang, the Community Shield game is not valued, and the gold content is not high, which is considered a chicken rib, so Manchester United will also include this game in the warm-up game - if you can take it, if you can't get it, it's just a matter of training.

……

On 5 August, the Reds travelled by bus to the small south-west city of Bristol, where they will meet in the evening at the opponent's home stadium, Aston. Ghat Stadium, with which you will play a warm-up match.

Bristol is an honorary county in the southwest of England, a single administrative region, and one of the eight core cities of England, but in reality, it is only a small city with a population of less than half a million.

The city has a long history, but in the sport of football, there are no outstanding achievements and people, the town's only professional team, Bristol City, for a long time since the formation of the team mixed in the lower leagues of England, but in the new century, Bristol City's results have gradually improved, and now they are in the middle of the Championship.

Manchester United is the most successful team since the establishment of the Premier League, with countless stars and bright stars, especially Fan Bizhuang, who has just transferred to join him, is a recognized superstar in world football, and his team has not been able to play in the top league, but it is also an honor to be able to see the superstar on his own turf.

After all, it was just a warm-up game and didn't have much to do with the results, and the people in the town showed great enthusiasm for the arrival of Manchester United's stars, and Ferguson and his team were warmly welcomed here.

In the evening, the Aston Aston can only accommodate 20,000 spectators. The Gatt Stadium was packed early, and not only did the people of the town support their team as usual, but many of them also played "Welcome Manchester United!" "Welcome Van !" Obviously, Van Bizhuang is the most popular, in the stands, wearing his shirt number and holding his portrait poster, the town has the most fans - the town does not have its own superstar, in addition to its own players, people also have their favorite players, judging from the scene and cheers, Van Bizhuang, who joined the team with the first value in the history of Manchester United, is undoubtedly the most sought after star.

Aston. The warm atmosphere at the Gatt Stadium gave Van Bizhuang a very intimate feeling, and he also came from a remote seaside town, and it was there that he gradually made his name known to fans all over the world. Although this is England, not Villarreal, both cities are equally small and have spent most of their history in the lower leagues – and in that regard, Villarreal are undoubtedly much luckier, as the submarine is now known all over the world, perhaps in La Liga, they are not serious contenders for the trophy, but they definitely have the qualifications to storm the European stage every season.

Although the town is small, as long as there is ambition and persistence, it can also shine brightly.

Standing here, I couldn't help but miss the happy times in the small city, Fan Bizhuang was slightly moved, and kept waving in the direction of the stands where his name was shouted.

Immediately caused more cheers and screams in the stands.

"Your popularity is really ...... Wang! ”

Owen walked over from not far away, smiled and waved his hand to Fan Bizhuang, "I haven't officially made an appearance in the Premier League yet, but it makes British fans crazy, Fan, now your popularity in world football, the top three are definitely for sure." ”

Fan Bizhuang turned his head and responded with a smile: "This is my honor, and of course, it is also pressure. You know, Michael, the enthusiasm of the fans is forcing me to stop, and I have to show here to live up to the expectations of the fans and the club. ”

Fan Bizhuang's face was full of the flamboyance and confidence unique to young people, and Owen looked at him and nodded with some emotion.

How familiar I used to be with Fan Bizhuang, born in Liverpool, became famous in the World Cup, and then transferred to Real Madrid, I thought I would achieve greater success there, but I didn't expect that it became a turning point for me to go downhill - although I can still occupy a place in the big team now, but compared to my peak, there is a certain gap.

Seeing Fan Bizhuang, it is like seeing the most high-spirited self in the past, the difference is that his peak has passed, and Fan Bizhuang is still very young, he has just embarked on his own legendary road.

For Fan Bizhuang "snatched" his jersey number, Owen actually did not complain at all, perhaps in the eyes of many fans who support him, the club transferred the No. 7 jersey that originally belonged to him to others, which can be regarded as a "humiliation", after all, Owen is also a famous superstar.

But Owen doesn't think so, after so many years of ups and downs on the green field, he has seen many things very clearly, the football world is cruel, but also the most realistic, if you perform well, you can win everything, and if you perform poorly, you can only be unknown - after joining Manchester United, Owen's performance is not bad, but it is not too good, especially from time to time injuries, which will inevitably make fans and clubs lose patience.

Van Bizhuang is different, he is the hottest and top superstar in football today, and the first value in the history of the club, the club has spent so much money to bring him in, and Van Bizhuang's future at Manchester United will undoubtedly occupy an extremely important position.

One is an aging superstar, the other is a superstar in his playing years, and the answer is obvious.

Of course, even if he is unwilling to give up the number seven shirt, the club will not press hard, but there are quite a few words that are certain. However, for Owen, he didn't think it was necessary, the number seven shirt was a symbol of honour and legend for Manchester United, but not necessarily for him, so when the club asked him, he readily agreed.

He also wants to see if the future of this young man, who is praised by fans all over the world, can make Manchester United's No. 7 shine again.
