November in the UK is a rainy season, the temperature is not low, but the rain is very cold, like the water spilled from the sprinkler head in the garden, sprinkled on the body cold, people can't help but feel a chill.

On the training ground of the first team at Newton Heath, all the players are training in the mud, they are still hardworking, they are still tenacious, and even from time to time there will be some fierce movements, which is very common in English club training, and everyone is used to it.

Mourinho stood on the pitch with a cold face, next to his assistant Faria, who would blow the whistle in his mouth from time to time, and then stop the game, signaling how the player's pass was and how he was running.

The competition in October is more intense, because there is one more Pioneer Cup, and the participants of this cup are all professional clubs in English C and English B, the team strength is relatively strong, so the competition is very fierce, but unlike the previous FA Winner's Cup, the participating teams of the Pioneer Winner's Cup can get the corresponding bonus for each round of promotion, the lowest is a few thousand pounds, and the highest is the North and South Championship Final, which can get a bonus of 40,000 pounds, plus the previous promotion bonus, it is still very considerable.

New Manchester United didn't value the money very much, and with the league behind, Mourinho focused more on League C, which led to the elimination of New Manchester United by Nods County from League Two in the second round of the North Division.

But in the English C League, the new Manchester United in October five league games have achieved 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so the new Manchester United in the first 16 rounds of the English League C got 10 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, 33 points ranked 4th in the English League C standings, better than the new Manchester United results are Brighton with 38 points at the top of the table, followed by Cardiff with 36 points and Kurosawa with 34 points.

Heading into November, the fixtures have been relatively lighter, especially as the new United have been knocked out of the Pioneer Cup Winner's Cup, leaving them with only three league games and the FA Cup first round to play all month.

But that doesn't mean the new Manchester United have an easy schedule, as two of their three league games have been against their promoted direct rivals, namely Brighton & Hove Albion on Singles' Day on 11 November, and the 19th round of League C on 21 November, away to Blacksawa, and their opponents in the middle against Essext.

In this way, the new Manchester United game in November will be crucial, whether it is opened up by rivals, or reversed, and climb directly to the top three of the league depends on these two strong conversations.

But just when Mourinho was nervously preparing for the game, two big players in the new Manchester United team were suddenly poached.

…………

…………

Xiao Yu braved the dripping rain to come to the training ground of the first team, he looked up at the sky, it was a little gloomy, but the players on the field trained very hard.

Because the drainage facilities of the training ground of the Newton Heath training base are still improving, the training ground is very muddy, which makes Xiao Yu frown deeply after seeing it, and he feels that he really has not considered it in this regard.

However, it is no wonder that he has never had experience in this area, and in the case of the club's vigorous development, everyone else is also busy with their own affairs, and it is inevitable that there will be negligence, which leads to the drainage facilities of the training ground are not very perfect, and Xiao Yu decided to improve it as soon as possible after the end of the season.

In addition, the issue of indoor training ground should also be put on the agenda, after all, on such a rainy day, if there is an indoor training ground, then the players will be much easier.

At the end of the 90-minute intense and intense training, the players all came down from the training ground panting heavily, and saw Xiao Yu standing on the sidelines, some greeted from afar, and some came over.

"Boss, it's back!" Curtis stepped forward with a smile.

He's almost 16 years old, taller and more physically fit than before, and as captain of the new Manchester United youth team, he has excelled in the youth team, having been promoted to the development squad by Jose Mourinho this season, training with the first team and representing the team in the development team.

Incidentally, only professional league teams can play in the reserve team, so in the previous national league, the players could only play in the under-19 team, which is not the same as the reserve team game.

Xiao Yu smiled and patted Curtis's shoulder, this kid grew up with his own eyes, and now he is taller than Xiao Yu, the most rare thing is that he has made rapid progress, his header is a strong point with excellent physical fitness, but the sense of position, steals, marking and other aspects are very good, but there are some Bruce problems.

Mourinho's requirements for central defenders are steady, he doesn't like the kind of players who are very hard and frizzy, because he will feel that it is a landmine, and he doesn't know when the opponent will detonate it, it will be miserable, so he has criticized Curtis many times in training.

However, everyone knows that Mourinho's criticism is because he values it very much, and he didn't see Terry, who was the most fiercely criticized by Mourinho in the early part of the season, is now the team's defensive core.

"Good job, man, you're our future!" Xiao Yu smiled helplessly.

Curtis was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood why Xiao Yu said this, he knew that some players wanted to leave, so he walked over with a smile and hugged Xiao Yu hard, "Don't worry, boss, I won't leave, unless, you sell me!" ”

When Xiao Yu heard this, a burst of tears almost welled up, he thought of Curtiste running from London at the beginning, and thought of his parents who had hoped that he could go back to London many times in the past few years, but he chose to stay in the new Manchester United, even if it was only a team in the English League C.

"I won't sell you, Curtis, never unless you want to go!" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"That's a frustration, boss!" Curtis smiled very happily, and when he saw that his teammates were leaving, he said goodbye to Xiao Yu, "I'm going to take a shower, and we're going to play indoor soccer for a while." ”

The players passed by Xiao Yu one after another, and everyone greeted Xiao Yu happily, except for Distin and Stanson.

They are the two players who submitted a written transfer request to Mourinho, and when they saw Xiao Yu, they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at him.

"You're back!" Mourinho came to Xiao Yu's side, and obviously felt his shoulders loosen a little.

In the past, when Xiao Yu was there, he always felt that his defense had a wall to rely on, and if he didn't retreat to the wall, Xiao Yu would bear everything for him, but during the time Xiao Yu left, Mourinho was a little like he had lost his backbone.

It's not just him, it's the whole team.

In the past, Xiao Yu could be seen at the training base every day, and everyone just felt that it was normal, but when he left suddenly for more than half a month, everyone missed it very much, and they always felt that something was missing.

"Tell me about the situation, José!" Xiao Yu and Mourinho didn't care about the rain at all, and walked slowly on the path next to the training ground.

"Birmingham want to get Stansson, they know that Stansson can't play in our team, so they promised him the main position, he came to ask me a few days ago, and told me his thoughts very frankly, he said that if I can give him the main position, he will stay, otherwise, he wants to leave, I am also very frank, I can't do it!"

Xiao Yu walked slowly, listening quietly, he knew very well that Stanson was not the type of fullback Mourinho liked, his defense was really good, but he lacked offensive ability, and his speed was slow, which was a bit incompatible with Mourinho's tactics, so even if Bosingwa performed very average this season, Stansson did not get many opportunities.

Last season, Stansson was the main player of the team, and this season he was suddenly robbed of the main position by a newcomer, and the gap in his heart must be very large, and Birmingham is a League One team, Bruce knows him very well, and promised to give him the main position, and anyone will want to leave.

"Where's Distin?"

Mourinho looked at the players who ran into the training building one after another, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Newcastle in the Premier League made an offer to us, 1 million pounds, they want to take Distin, I asked him, he admitted that Newcastle had been in contact with him, although he didn't mention it, but his training has always seemed absent-minded these days, I can see that he also wants to go." ”

Newcastle, Xiao Yu has recently paid attention to this Premier League team, because Sun Jihai from China is now on trial in this team, and the Chinese media has been paying attention all day long, which also made Xiao Yu know that Newcastle's recent defenders have been seriously injured, and it is said that there are as many as 12 injured players in the first team.

The Chinese media believes that this is a favorable factor for Sun Jihai to join Newcastle, but Xiao Yu once laughed with Kassel and others that this transfer is no play, but who would have thought that Sun Jihai's success in joining Newcastle has not yet come to fruition, and the main central defender in his team has become the object of coveting.

Frankly speaking, in the face of the seduction of the Premier League team, it is difficult for the new Manchester United to retain people, unless Xiao Yu wants to break up in two, but this is obviously the worst and most disregarding result, because what will it make other players think?

The reason why Barcelona would rather lose a lot of money and be ridiculed and send Ibrahim to AC Milan is because they know very well that if they force someone to stay, the result will only be a lose-lose.

Recently, the transfer market in England has been very lively, especially the excellent central defender is more popular, Tottenham's Campbell is leaving, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool are all interested in him, Leeds United has bought Rio Ferdinand of West Ham United, and the transfer fee is England's first day price of 18 million pounds, which is also the first day price of a world defender.

Now Newcastle have reached out to the new Manchester United, and according to the situation, they are very confident that they will take Distin, otherwise, they will not make a direct offer.

1 million pounds, Xiao Yu really doesn't look at it, but what his real headache is, what will the team do after Distin is gone?

That's the real headache!

Maybe we should let Curtis get on top and give him a chance!

Xiao Yu thought to himself, but in this way, will the team's results be affected?

This is a consequence that Xiao Yu has to consider.

But it's clear that this is not the only thing that has a headache for him.

That night, Xiao Yu suddenly received a call from Scarlett.

"Hey, neighbor, do you know who I saw?"

"Who?" Xiao Yu asked angrily.

"Your manager, Mr. Jose Mourinho, do you know who is sitting with him?"

When Xiao Yu heard this, he was stunned!
