Although the new United won all three games in November, they only won one Young Player of the Month award when it came to the award of the month, and the accolade naturally went to Curtis.

As for the Manager of the Month and Player of the Month, they were all taken away by Cardiff, who also won three games in a row, and Mourinho and Juninho Jr. were both in second place, which made the fans of the new Manchester United feel indignant, because they all felt that it was because Cardiff was at the top of the list, otherwise, with the schedule of the new Manchester United, the two major rivals, Mourinho and Juninho Jr., would not be wronged if they did not win the monthly award.

But soon, the fans of the new United were laughing as the curse of Coach of the Month was fulfilled once again.

In the 20th round of the English League on December 1, Cardiff hosted promoted Makid Minster, who was a surprise surprise surprise with a 0-1 win over Cardiff at the top of the table, which surprised almost everyone, and some even said that it was a betting incident controlled by the bookmaker.

But those who watch the game will find that the Kidderminster team was indeed tenacious, and they were pressed and beaten by Cardiff throughout the game, but they held on until the last minute of the game, and then scored a goal from Cardiff through a counter-attack to get the precious three points.

And because the new Manchester United and Brighton have won successively, this makes 20 rounds later, Brighton once again topped the League C table with 47 points, which is also their second time at the top this season, and according to the current strength of Brighton, it is not easy to pull him off.

The new United and Cardiff are tied on 45 points, but the new United are second on goal difference, Cardiff is third and Kurosawa is fourth with 43 points.

The top four in the league are biting very tightly, and there is only one game between them, as long as one is not careful, it is likely to be completely pulled down by the opponent.

It is for this reason that Mourinho is very serious about the competition throughout the winter break.

However, the whole month of December is still a big test for the new Manchester United, for the simple reason that the Muslim Eid al-Fitr festival is on December 27, that is, the month before that, which is the Muslim Ramadan, and for the two Muslims in the team, Abidal and Essien, the whole December will be a test.

However, the most troublesome thing is that there is a busy winter break after December, and although the new United have been eliminated in various cup competitions, leaving only League C, they still have at least one game a week, two of which are two games a week.

With the experience of the last time, this time when Ramadan was coming, Essien reacted to the club a month in advance, and the laboratory also hurried to deal with it, after all, the team is now short of major generals, and if the team's combat effectiveness decreases because of Ramadan, it is really not a joke.

The method used in the laboratory this time is what Xiao Yu mentioned before, which is to adjust the diet time of Eshin and Abidal to the night in advance, and then reduce their training volume, so that they can focus on recovery and maintenance as much as possible.

The new United have a total of four games to play before December 27, namely at home to Cheltenham on December 8, away to vice-captain Banlett on December 15, away to Plymouth on December 22 and Rochdale at home on December 26.

Paulsen and Aarau Diarra have both returned from injury, so Mourinho decided to substitute Essien for these games, after all, he will not allow even the slightest mistake in his side as the league is in its most competitive moment.

As for the centre-backs, Mourinho is very optimistic about the partnership of John Terry and Curtis, insisting on using the two starters, and with Hangrande as a substitute, Abidal can safely welcome their Ramadan, and the left wing-back position is handed to Patrice Evra.

The position of goalkeeper due to Schmeichel's severe knee sprain in the national team game in October, the absence of the team, the laboratory believes that at least February will not be back to the team, so during this time, Almunia has always been the team's first goalkeeper, and the Spaniard's performance is also quite stable, but it still cannot replace Schmeichel's role in the team.

To paraphrase John Terry, Schmeichel's experience can help the team better when he is around, especially when it matters most, and he will stand up to remind his team-mates, which makes Terry reassuring because he knows that there is a big brother behind him who will always remind him not to make mistakes.

But Almunia is not, he may be a qualified goalkeeper, but he always does his job diligently, and he doesn't communicate much with his team-mates, and he has never been able to give people a sense of trust like Schmeichel.

However, in Schmeichel's absence, Juninho Jr. has been getting better and better, often helping the team at crucial moments, stabilizing the morale of the team, and he is becoming more familiar with the team's tactics and adapting to the English style of play, which allows him to help the team better.

And just when the new Manchester United was concentrating on preparing for the game, Xiao Yu's super murder weapon that he had been waiting for for two years finally came out!

…………

…………

In the laboratory of the training base, Xiao Yu, Walsh, Mourinho and others who heard the news all stared at the small pill twisted by Professor Fryer's right index finger and thumb with a look of surprise, as if this pill was the elixir that was said to be immortal.

"This is what you call a nutritional pill?" Xiao Yu felt that this little pill was not very eye-catching.

Derek beside Professor Fryer smiled and nodded, "Xiao Yu, don't underestimate this pill, do you know how many nutrients are aggregated in it?" ”

Xiao Yu and the others looked at each other, you look at me, I look at yours, no one is good at this thing.

"Alright, alright, Derek, don't show off, just say it!" Walsh was impatient and urged.

The funds for the laboratory were all allocated to Walsh, and as soon as he heard Walsh, who held his financial lifeline, speak, Derrick dared not listen, and immediately said the pills he had researched.

"We all know that everyone has an organic compound called adenosine triphosphate in their body, and we can also directly call it an energy substance, referred to as ATP, the ATP storage in everyone's body is very small, according to the general speaking, it can only maintain about 15 seconds of exercise, and after running a hundred meters, this energy substance will be exhausted."

"Are you trying to tell us that everyone can only run a hundred meters at most?" Walsh joked.

Derek shook his head with a smile, "No, this energy substance can be constantly recycled and self-synthesized, and he repeatedly synthesizes ATP by breathing, drinking water, etc., all kinds of means, so this is why our players can maintain a long and intense game confrontation." ”

After everyone listened to it, they suddenly understood a little, but the real connotation is not something that can be explained in one sentence.

"The main energy source for the synthesis of ATP is glucose and fatty acids, but when we do a lot of high-intensity exercise, it will cause a lot of consumption, and the synthesis rate of ATP will slow down, resulting in a decrease in exercise ability, such as muscle soreness and other symptoms will also occur."

"This is only one of the aspects, but also the most intuitive aspect, if you want to talk about other aspects, I think you can't finish talking about two or three days, anyway, you have to understand that the consumption of energy and substances in the body is the main reason for the decline in exercise capacity."

After listening to this, Professor Fryer smiled and nodded, "Derek is right, so we spent a lot of time and effort to research this nutritional pill, which contains a variety of minerals, vitamins, sugars, proteins and other substances that can replenish energy, and we aggregated them into this little pill." ”

After speaking, Professor Fryer pointed to the main computer next to him, which recorded the detailed physical data of each player, which is extremely detailed, which is a very, very professional set of data.

Mourinho, who saw this set of data files for the first time, was shocked, although he knew that the laboratory was researching and played a big role, at least helping him to test the physical fitness of the players well, but he didn't know that the player data in the laboratory was so detailed, and most of the testing items were unheard of by him.

"We will according to the physical condition of each player, through the first half of the running distance provided by opta, as well as various data, after entering the software, estimate the player's physical consumption in the first half, and what kind of nutrients they need to supplement, and at halftime, we will provide him with such a pill, drink water, rest for a few minutes, it will provide players with more energy in the second half, and then improve the player's athletic ability.

"Will it cause physical damage to the players?" Xiao Yu asked with concern.

If it's just something like doping, then don't use it.

Derek shook his head and said: "Of course not, if it's harmful, then it's better to take stimulants or something like that, we don't need to spend so much effort on research, I can guarantee that this is absolutely harmless and has no side effects, just like when we eat, but it takes a while for us to absorb when we eat, and this concentrated pill, he can be absorbed by the body after a few minutes, and it will work in more than half an hour after that." ”

Speaking of this, Derek smiled at Xiao Yu and said, "Of course, the effect of this pill is definitely not as fast as that of doping, and the effect will not be so great, but this will be very helpful to the players!" ”

"Has it ever been tested?" Xiao Yu asked again.

"Of course, everyone knows that you treat players as treasures, and I don't dare to bring it up without testing!" Professor Fryer laughed.

Everyone in the entire training base knows that Xiao Yu attaches great importance to the players.

After listening to this, Xiao Yu looked at Mourinho, who was obviously also a little moved, he is the kind of coach who emphasizes physical fitness very much, so he knows very well that if this pill can really speed up the physical recovery of players and improve the athleticism in the second half during the halftime, then this pill will undoubtedly bring great help to the team.

One person's improvement may only be a little bit, but 11 people on the field, a season, a few years, it will add up, it will be huge, which will give the new Manchester United more advantage in the competition with the opponent!
