In the second half of the warm-up game, Mourinho made a radical change.

First of all, Crouch played as a lone striker, Malouda was replaced by Wright Phillips, and Aarau Diarra replaced Olich, and the team's formation immediately changed to 433.

As Mourinho said, playing 433 is more demanding for all positions of the team, but it also puts more pressure on the opponent, because 433 is the formation when attacking, and when defending, Mourinho has different requirements from Bruce, requiring the team to recycle in an orderly manner, and the two wingers must retreat, which makes the formation become 451, leaving a striker in front.

Judging from the field, the players are still a little unfamiliar with Mourinho's requirements, especially at the moment of the transition between attack and defence, the two wingers and full-backs still have some problems with the combination, and Terry and Distin, who replaced Garay Turner in the 55th minute, are not tacit enough.

The most intuitive performance was that De Roysden, who was surrounded by the new Manchester United in the second half, played a counterattack in the 78th minute, Rich Willens's extremely fast inside, crossed into the box, Terry and Distin could not get back to their positions in time, if it wasn't for the excellent performance of Almunia on the bench Schmeichel, Jonathan Maiten would have scored.

Jose Mourinho frowned from the sidelines, he had no doubts about the fighting spirit of the players on the pitch, but he was a little concerned about his team's ability to adapt to the new tactics he had put in place.

"Louie, it seems that the most urgent thing for us at the moment is not to get all the players to adapt to the new tactics and the new running system, but to run in a set of main squads as soon as possible." Mourinho looked at the performance of the players on the pitch and said with some concern.

Louis Faria, the assistant next to him, nodded: "Yes, the head coach has been changed, half of the main players have been replaced, it is difficult for you to ask them to do more, as for the rotation, I think it should be after the main squad has been run-in." ”

There are many games in the English League C in the new season, and it is impossible to play a season with a single lineup, so it can only be rotated, but the problem Mourinho is facing now is that even the main squad does not cooperate tacitly, how to rotate?

Maybe it's getting worse the more you rotate, the team's results are poor, and the players' form is also declining, that's fatal!

Although the new Manchester United players did not implement the new tactics thoroughly enough, in the end, the overall strength of the players was much higher than that of Droisden, so this warm-up game was easily won 3-0.

After the game, David Pace complained to Xiao Yu with great emotion, but he was very aware that if he didn't work harder, Droysden would only be pulled further and further away by the new Manchester United.

After the game, Mourinho took his players to the stands to thank the fans, while Walsh also announced on behalf of the club that all proceeds from the game would be used to set up a charitable foundation to serve the community, with Xiao Yu and David Pace donating £1 million and £500,000 respectively.

In addition, Walsh also took this opportunity to tell fans that he had reached a preliminary intention with the FA to hold a charity cup at this stadium before each season, and the name of the cup was initially set to be Newton Heath Cup, and all ticket revenues and commercial sponsorships from the cup would be handed over to charitable foundations to serve the community.

Walsh's remarks immediately drew a cheer from the fans in attendance, who were all grassroots through and through, and how could they not be moved when they heard that the team they supported would think so much about them?

After returning to the Newton Heath training base, some local reporters who heard the wind from the butcher's knife stadium chased after them, among whom Scarlett even got a private interview with Xiao Yu.

In this exclusive interview, Xiao Yu said that this is one of the new Manchester United's initiatives to serve fans, and in the future, the club will continue to introduce more measures to help fans and players.

"I remember Scottish coach Jock Stein saying that football is nothing without fans! New Manchester United was founded by the fans, so he will always be a club that belongs to the fans and serves the fans! ”

In the Manchester City Evening News the next day, Xiao Yu's words made headlines, and his words also caused a lot of reactions among Manchester fans, especially many fans responded to Xiao Yu's move and generously supported the Red Rebels Charity Foundation.

Due to the enthusiastic response of the fans, even many foreign fans have expressed their support, so Xiao Yu specially opened a donation channel on the new Manchester United official website on the Internet, so that foreign fans can donate directly on the spot.

Some of the fans are poor and some are rich, but the foundation has no prejudice, whether it is a donation of one or two dollars, or those who donate tens of hundreds of pounds, the new Manchester United fan department recorded them in detail, and then according to the address they provided, sent them a beautiful charity gift.

In addition, after the establishment of the foundation, the list and information of these donors will set up a set of files, and every expenditure and income of the foundation will be clearly announced on the Internet.

In order to accomplish this, Xiao Yu cooperated with a local charity in Manchester at the beginning of the foundation's establishment, and the other party sent personnel to help New Manchester United organize and work charity activities.

This move caused a lot of repercussions in Manchester and England, although the new Manchester United did not deliberately do this, but the English media did not care about this, they dug into the ground to make these gimmick news, so as to indirectly help the new Manchester United to make a name, David Pace's De Roysden also benefited a lot.

While Xiao Yu and Walsh were planning the foundation, the pre-season training and warm-up games for the new Manchester United were going on in an orderly manner.

Since the match with Droisden, Mourinho began to consciously establish the main lineup, and then run in this main lineup, whether it is in training or in the warm-up game, this main lineup has not changed.

In the forward position, Mourinho originally preferred Crouch, but after two warm-up games, he tragically found that the tall man has a height advantage, but his header is terrible, the physical confrontation ability is very weak, and he can barely stand in the penalty area.

On the contrary, Kitson performed well in the warm-up game, although it cannot be said to be eye-catching, but his power in the penalty area still made Mourinho's eyes shine, you know, his height has also reached 1.91 meters, and he is a strong central defender, weighing 82 kilograms, which is simply a tank in the penalty area.

As for the center-back combination, Garay Turner was positioned as the team's substitute by Mourinho, John Terry is Mourinho's handpicked defensive core, and Distin and Hangrande will compete for another position, but according to the warm-up game, Distin is obviously more dominant than Hangrande, because the former is faster, and the latter has the same disadvantage as Terry, that is, the slow turn.

Abidal was pinned to the left wing-back by Jose Mourinho, which forced Patrice Evra to be used as a substitute, as was Essien, who was a bit upset when the impressive youngster was snatched out of the main position by newcomer Arau Diarra.

However, they did not rebel, but after a conversation with Mourinho, they seemed to realise their problems and behaved actively in training, as if they wanted to impress Mourinho through training.

It was in this context that the new Manchester United sat at the City Stadium and welcomed Liverpool's arch-rivals Everton.

…………

…………

The current Everton is far from the Premier League powerhouse that David Moyes was in charge, and the current Everton is a Premier League team that has been aiming for relegation for several years, and its strength in the Premier League is only in the middle and lower reaches, or even downstream.

But even so, Everton is still a Premier League team after all, especially since they have brought in England talent Gascoigne this year; The Danish butcher Gravison who was introduced from the Hamburg team was the one who later transferred to Real Madrid, and even Tyson admired the tough guy; Italian defender Pistone was also brought in from Newcastle.

Although Barmsby, who performed very well last season, transferred to Liverpool, Everton's overall strength has not decreased much, especially the arrival of Graveson has injected a shot in the arm into Everton's midfield.

And in this warm-up game, Everton's performance did show the Premier League team's shocking strong attacking power and overall advantage, especially in their rhythm of attacking and defensive transitions, and even pulling the nose of the new Manchester United.

The new Manchester United put out the tactics of 433 in this game, but because the whole field was suppressed, it looked more like 451, leaving only one Kitson in front of him as an arrow, but he was also basically watched to the dead and failed to play much role.

However, although the new Manchester United counter-attacks were always in vain, Everton, who firmly dominated the field, could not convert the advantage into a scoreline, because they were ruthlessly imprisoned by the new Manchester United when they entered the new Manchester United half.

Every player on the pitch was firmly in line with Mourinho's pre-match tactics, firmly controlling every inch of space at the back, and although the Everton players still had a few chances on their own, they failed to find the back of the net.

The game ended in a dull 0-0 scoreline, but it gave the new United another lesson in the strength of a Premier League team, especially a traditional English team like Everton, which emphasizes physical confrontation and fast-paced attacking and defending.

Of course, this was Everton's first warm-up game after the training camp, and the players' form was inevitably a little bad, which is a big reason why the new United were able to control the backfield.

But no matter what, Jose Mourinho's side finally survived the exam from the Premier League!

ps: I encountered troubles at work today, and I was not in a good mood, and I saw [tourists] in the book review area to fart, which was really hot!
