Chapter 805: Priceless Treasure
In his post-match press conference, Mark Hughes looked smug: "...... I'm not surprised at all, Rong has the quality and we've been helping him get back into form in the pre-season this summer, so I know very well how he's forming. Having him start in the first round of the league was definitely not a risk or a gamble as some people say, and I didn't get any pressure from the top of the club, I'm the manager of the team, I decide who to play and who not to play, and the reason I let Rong play is simple, he meets the requirements of the game. Everyone has seen the results. ”
With that, Mark Hughes shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.
"I'm glad that Rong is back and he's still the best player in the world!"
Of course, some reporters asked Mark Hughes if the team's goals for this season would be different with such a strong glory.
'Of course, if you have players like that, you're going to be a little bit ambitious. But I think we should take it one step at a time, and we'll do it steadily. I hope that by the end of the season we will be in a better position than last season......"
The reporter who asked the question asked: "Is it just better than last season?" After all, you spent so much money and bought so many players in the summer......"
"Do you want us to win?" Mark Hughes himself laughed. "Well, if I have to be exact, I'm hoping to qualify for Europe next season......
"How hard is this goal?"
"I don't think it's too hard." Mark Hughes said he looked very confident.

The next day, the entire English media reported on Manchester City's match against Aston Villa.
But everyone's focus is on Glory.
Every touch of the ball in the game can be the content of the media, and many newspapers have made special reports on Rongguang's watch in the game.
The reporters who were still ridiculing Glory for not being able to return to the top have now changed their tune.
“…… If Rong can really return to the level he was at before his injury, then the transfer fee of 100 million euros does not look like much at all......"
"Rong's excellent performance has made Aston Villa's wishful thinking come to naught! Gareth Barry's pre-match rhetoric looks like a joke! ”
"Judging by his goal, his injured right ankle is really fine......
"Bayern Munich's team doctor, Dr. Wolfat, was also very surprised by Rong's appearance, and he originally thought that Rong would be able to fight again on the pitch and already win...... Now it's a miracle! ”
"Ashley Young is fast, but in front of Young, he is as slow as a classic car that is about to be scrapped!"
"Rong's performance in the game was outstanding, not just that goal, at other times he started and sprinted very powerfully......"
"Glory conquered the most discerning English media in yesterday's game! After the game, several English media outlets were singing praises for glory! This is the glory we are familiar with! Welcome back! ”
Not only the English media, but the media throughout Europe, the Chinese media, are desperately touting the glory in the game.
Rongguang's former teammates also expressed their opinions on Rongguang's excellent performance.
"I knew Rong could do it, he just had the ability!" Lucas Sutton, who already plays for Atletico Madrid, appeared happy when he spoke to reporters. "There's nothing in this world that he can't do, and I'm pretty sure of that."
Schweinsteiger: "I'm very happy, really, very happy. If a player as good as him ends up dropping out of the top ranks due to injury, it would be a loss for world football......"
Ram: "It's good that Basten's tragedy didn't happen. ”
"I'm glad to see that I was wrong...... Dr. Wolfart also said. I don't know how Rong has recovered in the past few months, but now it seems that he has recovered very well. I am sincerely happy for his appearance yesterday. To be honest, it's a pleasure to watch Rong play, even if he's not a Bayern Munich player anymore, I think so......"
Ronaldinho, who moved to AC Milan from Barcelona this summer, also welcomed the return of Glory: "Welcome back, Glory! You've made us wait too long! ”
Ballack: "I watched the game and I jumped up from the couch to cheer for every goal Jung scored. It's great to see him get back to form! ”
Klose: "I knew Rong wouldn't fall so lightly, he was as strong as a rock!" ”
……
There are also a number of players and coaches who have commented on Glory's performance against Aston Villa.
Everyone is praising the glorious cousin Xiàn, thinking that he is a phenomenal master.
Finally, the BBC commented: "Young's hat-trick has a deeper symbolic meaning in a sense...... This meaning goes beyond a simple win or defeat. It shows how much energy a person can burst out in the face of the ridicule and doubts of others after experiencing a serious setback. How does frustration work on a person, and how does this person fight against fate...... I think that's what these three balls mean......"
Such an evaluation can be described as ...... Quite high!
But no one objected.
Glory's story is indeed quite inspiring, the injuries he suffered at the beginning, everyone saw it, and the whole world swore that he could not return to the top, but Glory did not give up for a day, he trained and recovered seriously every day.
Until this game, he surprised the whole world!
As the BBC said, he really embodies a spirit of never giving up, a spirit of confrontation with fate.
This spirit is actually the spirit of sportsmanship, challenging strong opponents and surpassing oneself.
Sports is the process of human beings' pursuit of their own limits.
And in Rongguang, this is fully demonstrated.

Manchester City fans were also very happy with the result and after the game they couldn't wait to start hoping where City would be in the league book at the end of the season.
Mark Hughes said his goal was to qualify for Europe, and he didn't say Champions League, but Europe, and the difference between the words can be very different.
The Champions League has a defined goal, while European competitions include the Champions League and the UEFA Cup.
That said, he felt that qualifying for the UEFA Cup would be a complete task.
But excited Manchester City fans are thinking further ahead, hoping to qualify for next season's Champions League directly at the end of the season.
The last time Manchester City played in the Champions League was in 1968, 39 years ago!
In the case of the Champions League becoming more and more important and the gold content is becoming more and more abundant, being able to participate in the Champions League means that the strength of the team has become stronger.
Who doesn't want their team to get stronger?
Manchester City didn't have that chance, but now they have it.
They are looking forward to glory and continue to score goals and lead Manchester City to victory after victory.
And the good news came right after, in addition to the glory, Robinho's transfer deal was finally finalized!
The Manchester Evening News revealed that Robinho's agent has begun negotiations with Manchester City FC on the player's individual contract, which means that once the negotiations reach an agreement, Robinho will be a Man from Manchester City!
This summer, Manchester City first grabbed Berbatov with Manchester United, and now Robinho with Chelsea, and they have both successful transfer deals.
The news was very encouraging for Manchester City fans.
Robinho is the successor of Pele's handpicks!
His strength is naturally undoubted, with his arrival, good glory together, it will inevitably form a terrifying attack line!
And Robinho's arrival has not only strengthened Manchester City, but also weakened direct rivals Chelsea, who have become rivals to Manchester City, as well as Manchester United.
They believe Manchester City will not just play these two teams in the transfer market and emerge victorious, on the pitch and in the league as well.
Glory, Robinho, Berbatov...... Such an offensive lineup is really drunk to think about.
In addition, the Manchester Evening News also quoted Spanish media reports to suggest that Robinho chose Manchester City between Chelsea and Manchester City, not because Manchester City could offer him a higher salary, but because of glory.
“…… Robinho once played against Rong when he was playing in Brazil, and he must know Rong very well. When he chose Manchester City, he actually chose Rong. After seeing Rong's excellent performance against Aston Villa, he believes that Rong will definitely be able to return to the top, and it is better to stand in the same trench with such a person than to stand on the opposite side, right? ”
This news has raised the expectations of Manchester City fans for glory - he can not only win the game and bring the team victory, but also play a vital role in the transfer market!
Now it seems that Manchester City's transfer fee of 100 million euros and 300,000 pounds per week salary are really well spent!

Mark Hughes is convinced that glory will bring victory to the team and lead the team forward, just as he did with Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich.
He may have been right.
In the second round of the league, Manchester City welcomed West Ham United in their first home game of the new season.
It was also the first time Glory played at the Manchester City Stadium.
In order to witness the glorious superstars, the stadium, which can accommodate 48,000 people, is completely full.
Manchester City's fans welcomed the glory with great enthusiasm.
When Glory appeared, the cheers from the scene were able to make anyone who didn't have heart disease get a heart attack.
The narrator also had to shut up when he said this, because no one would hear what he said.
With a hat-trick in the first game of Glory, everyone's attention to him has also reached its peak.
And the glory did not disappoint the more than 46,000 Manchester City fans.
He opened the scoring for City in the 37th minute, a goal that relied on speed.
At that time, after receiving the ball in the midfield, he suddenly started, and after getting rid of the defenders with speed, there was no change of direction, straight **** penalty area, and then a kick of the newspaper!
West Ham United goalkeeper Roberto Glenn had nothing to do with Glory's powerful shot from inside the box, and although he made a save, it was clear he was slow.
The cheers that erupted at the Manchester City Stadium were louder than when Glory came out...... But at this point, the commentator can't shut up, he has to be hoarse and fight the crazy Manchester City fans.
"Scored in two games in a row, four goals in two games! Young's form is outstanding! He used his watch to make people completely forget that he had suffered a serious injury! Terrific! Wing is by far City's most successful signing! ”
After a pause, he added: "Manchester City have bought a priceless treasure!" ”
