384 Premier League

The Red Rebels also take the Newton Heath Cup seriously, on the contrary, Mourinho is a little dismissive of the Community Shield in a week's time, even if the opponent is Manchester United.

This is not to say that the Red Rebels have started to play big names after winning the Premier League, in fact, even Ferguson has said that Manchester United are interested in promoting substitutes to play in the Community Shield, and let the main players better prepare for the upcoming new season and hone in the tacit understanding between the players.

The Community Shield has turned into the last warm-up game before the season for the Premier League powerhouses, and that's a real fact!

Jose Mourinho fielded the main line-up in the Newton Heath Cup, goalkeeper Petr Cech, and the backline from left to right: Patrice Evra, Terry, Curtis, Colo? Toure, the two midfielders are Beckham and Essien, the forward Kaka, the two wingers are Ronaldo Jr. and Robben, and the single striker is Drogba.

The Droysden team also fielded their strongest main lineup, including Mascherano, Muntari, Maika? Richards, Joe? Hart, Dzeko and others were all in the starting lineup.

Both sides were in full swing and the Red Rebels were undoubtedly in the ascendancy, as they were better than Droysden in terms of controlling the tempo of the game and working together with each other.

The final score was 4:1, Dzeko scored a goal, and Mascherano and Maika? Richards and others are doing well.

Xiao Yu watched the game for 90 minutes in the seat specially provided for him, and he was right to David next to him? Pace continued to praise De Roysden's improvement in the game, especially the team's passing and receiving on the field, as well as the overall offensive and defensive transitions, which were much improved compared to before.

Manuel Pellegrini's ability is unquestionable, and Xiao Yu believes that under his leadership, De Roysden will be a big favorite to promote to the Premier League this season, and believes that with the rise of a number of potential stars in England, De Roysden's results will be even better.

The Red Rebels' performance in this game was much better than the previous warm-up matches, but Ronaldo and Arjen Robben, who had just experienced the European Championship, were not excited enough in the game, and the lab thought it was a sequelae of the tournament and had to give them some time to adjust.

On the other hand, Leo, who replaced Robben? Messi, one pass and one shot, showed a strong offensive ability on the right side, especially his cooperation with Kaka in the middle is very tacit, and the two seem to be wearing the same pair of pants.

As the first official match to be held at the Red Rebels Stadium, fans are generally supportive of the team, with all 55,000 seats fully booked, and the Red Rebels are expected to sell more than 40,000 season tickets this season.

Judging by the boom in season ticket sales, it's not hard to guess that the Red Rebels will record new stadium attendance this year, which, combined with the sales of VIP boxes and business seats, makes the Commerce Department predict that this year's ticket sales are likely to be the highest in the club's history, even surpassing last season's victory at Old Trafford.

The revenue from the tickets has increased, and with the opening of some service shops in the stadium, the income from the game will also become another major income for the Red Rebels, plus sponsors, theme park rentals, broadcast fee income, commercial operation income, etc., the Red Rebels are likely to make a profit in advance this season.

But the key question is how much profit can be made, and whether it can surpass Manchester United!

With winning the Champions League last season, Real Madrid's commercial value has long surpassed Manchester United, and if the Red Rebels want to surpass Real Madrid in the short term, they must have results and stars that can be used, Beckham is one, but slightly weak, and the team has only won a Premier League title, which is not convincing enough.

Of course, the results and stars are a gradual process, Xiao Yu is not in a hurry at all, but the pace of the Premier League is getting closer and closer, and the first to ring the doorbell is the Community Shield.

…………………… Prior to the Community Shield, Ferguson and Jose Mourinho had each made previous representations with the FA, with both hoping to send substitutes or reserves to play in the Community Shield, as the league is relatively more important, and many of the players from both teams have played in the European Championship and Copa America, so they need to buy some more time to adjust.

The Community Shield is scheduled at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, which will require the two Manchester teams to go back and forth, especially given that the league kicks off on August 14 and has to travel south to play an innocuous Community Shield on August 8, which is a bit dangerous for both the Red Rebels and Manchester United.

However, the FA took a tough attitude, and also hinted that if Ferguson and Mourinho both wanted to let their assistants lead the team south to play the Community Shield, it is likely that a penalty will be ushered in, in addition to a fine, but also a ban.

In this regard, Ferguson and Mourinho have expressed their helplessness, especially Mourinho, in order to strive for more time for players to rest and adjust, he only took some players south, including Ronaldo Jr., Robben, Beckham, Philip? Lahm and others were left in Manchester to train with the Kassel team.

Manchester United also hid a number of main players in this game, the goalkeeper used Howard, and the back line from left to right were Fuqiong, Silvestre, O'Shea, Gary? Neville, the five people in the midfield are Jemba, Keane, Fletcher, Ryan Giggs, Richardson, and the striker is Allan? Smith.

The Red Rebels' goalkeeper is Almunia, and the backline from left to right is Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Curtis, Colo? Toure, with Cesc Fabregas and De Rossi playing as a back two in midfield, Franck Ribery and Leo? Messi plays as a two-sided striker, with Kaka in the front and Drogba as the single striker.

It can be said that both sides did not attach much importance to this game in this game, and they were more concerned about not getting any players injured, so when Manchester United O'Shea landed a little unexpectedly in the first half when he landed in a battle with Drogba, there was no big problem, but Ferguson was nervous to replace him with the new star Spektor.

At half-time, the Red Rebels took a 1-0 lead.

But Mourinho started to make substitutions in the second half, and in the 50th minute, he used Michael? Johnson replaced Cesc Fabregas, followed by Mikel Mikel five minutes later for De Rossi, and then Sergio Aguero for Kaka, who had just scored for the Red Rebels.

After making 3 adjustments in one go, the situation of the Red Rebels on the pitch was a little chaotic, and Manchester United soon seized the opportunity to pull back 1 goal, Giggs broke through on the left and crossed, Alain? Smith grabbed the point and scored, 2:1!

However, after pulling the goal back, United also clearly relaxed their attack, and Ferguson also replaced Allan with youth team youngster Eagles? Smith, this is also the third substitution for Manchester United, and the previous substitutions have also been replaced by youth team youngsters.

This has turned the Community Shield into a youth match, and according to live footage, at least half of the stands at the Millennium Stadium are vacant, which shows how enthusiastic the fans are for the game.

There is a gimmick to say that Manchester United and the Red Rebels have a grudge entanglement, but last season's three matchups were sensational enough, and with both sides targeting the league, especially with the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal in the middle, there is no reason for Manchester United and the Red Rebels to fight for a Community Shield.

After that, it was clear that the young players of the Red Rebels were more active, especially Michael? Johnson's several through balls and diagonal long passes were very well placed, including in the 81st minute, Aguero was the first to receive Michael? After Johnson's pass, he used a clever heel knock to Messi in the back row, and Messi scored in the far corner, 3:1!

However, the flashes of young players have not been able to prevent this cup from becoming a chicken rib, especially in the media reports after the game, and it is even more unanimous that neither side wants to win this game, and the only thing that can prove it is that the young players of the Red Rebels are better than the younger generation of Manchester United.

Among them, the Times pointed out very fairly, Leo? Messi, Ismail, Michael? Johnson, Mikel and Sergio Aguero, who just applied for a special talent clause this year, are a group of players with outstanding talent and talent, and they will be the backbone of the Red Rebels for years to come.

On the other hand, Manchester United, neither Spiketor nor Eagles could take the baton, which is also the reason why Manchester United lost this Community Shield, but I believe that in the league, if the main lineups of the two sides really do a game, it is still unknown whether they will win or lose!

…………………… At the same time as the Community Shield was held, Chelsea had their final warm-up game at home in London, Carlo Ancelotti's side faced League One sides in a relentless 7-0 thrash, and after two months of exploration, he finally found the best squad for Chelsea, which was the Christmas tree formation he had made famous at AC Milan in his previous life.

The advantage of this tactic is to play a strong attack in the middle of Chelsea, with top strikers such as Shevchenko and Crespo acting as arrows, Joe in the back row? Both Kerr and Frank Lampard have had considerable freedom, while Deco, who had played in midfield, dropped back to play in midfield, and his forward playmaking and midfield organisation have made Chelsea's midfield more elegant and organised.

Andriy Shevchenko's hat-trick, Crespo netting a goal, Deco scoring from distance, Veron scoring from a direct free-kick and Frank Lampard scoring from a penalty spot in the box gave Chelsea's final warm-up game in full bloom.

Chelsea's outburst has also sounded the clarion call for Premier League fixtures ahead of schedule, especially in these games in August, when the favourites did not meet in advance, which made the conversation less appealing, but also gave these teams plenty of time to warm up and settle in.

It wasn't until mid-September, in the fifth round of the league, that the Red Rebels challenged Chelsea away, which kicked off the prelude to the strong dialogue.

However, although the opponents in August are generally not strong, but there are 4 league games to be played in half a month, and the schedule is indeed a headache for many teams, especially strong teams such as Red Rebels and Chelsea, they must take advantage of the weak team at the beginning of the season to grab points as much as possible, otherwise they will be distracted from the League Cup, League and Champions League group stage.

It is precisely because of the intensity of the schedule and the start of the league that each team takes the August competition very seriously, even at the cost of giving up the Community Shield to prepare for the league.

After Mourinho returned to Manchester, he began a five-day closed training session, refusing all activities, media interviews, and even the club's commercial department could not arrange players to attend any occasion during this period, and he had to take advantage of this time to concentrate on preparing for the upcoming new season.

Coincidentally, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool have also been collectively silenced during this time, and these teams are holding their breath and want to show their strength in the new season, especially Manchester United and Chelsea, who have invested heavily in reinforcements, and it is said that Abou gave Ancelotti a death order before the game that he must win the championship!

As many experts have said, the situation of the top five in the Premier League has been formed, and the second-tier Newcastle, Tottenham, Manchester City, Everton and other stalwarts have also improved compared with last season, and the new season of the Premier League is likely to stage a dragon and tiger drama.

And the craze for the championship is likely to start in the first round of the league!

This has made countless eyes around the world focus on the Premier League, all looking forward to whether the heavily recruited Chelsea and Manchester United can get their wish, how long the unbeaten Red Rebels can extend the record, and whether Arsenal and Liverpool can stage a Jedi counterattack by the giants!

It was in the expectation and expectation of the fans that the Premier League finally kicked off, and it was indeed as some people expected, bringing a series of good performances from the beginning!
