Chapter 408
August 16.
In the morning at Carrington Base, Alex Ferguson was reading the newspaper while enjoying breakfast.
"The Community Shield has come to an end! Manchester City 5:1 bloodbath Chelsea!"
The result of this game.
Although Ferguson did not watch the live broadcast yesterday, he knew it immediately after the game.
But it did not prevent him from enjoying this game that made him happy through this report from the Manchester Evening News today.
"Mourinho left the field early and missed the post-match press conference..."
"Hahaha."
"My good neighbor, this really pissed off the Portuguese."
Ferguson could imagine how dark Mourinho's expression could be just by looking at the text description.
Of course.
After being happy, Ferguson had to raise Manchester City's strength this season to a higher level in his heart.
"It seems that their summer signings have been well integrated."
"Stuart is really quick."
"We are so lucky to sign Cannavaro and Zambrotta..."
After Juventus was relegated by the Italian Football Association, Ferguson also wanted to get a few stars from Juventus, which was demoralized.
The result was unexpected.
When he contacted them again, almost all the stars who were about to leave had already decided on their next club.
This also led to Ferguson getting nothing in this "meat-sharing" drama.
However.
Things have come to this point.
Ferguson knew that he had no time to regret those things. He was preparing for the new season, leading the Red Devils to hit the league championship and return to the throne.
This is the most important thing at the moment.
"Manchester City has become stronger."
"Chelsea's new players have problems with running-in, and Liverpool should not be as bad as last season."
"As for that old man's Arsenal..."
.....................................................
London, Arsenal training base.
Arsene Wenger, the old man in Ferguson's mouth, is holding a cup of black coffee and watching the Community Shield video.
Whether it is Manchester City or Chelsea.
They are Arsenal's toughest competitors in the new season.
Wenger will certainly not miss any game between the two teams.
The video of the game finally freezes on Su Fei holding up the Community Shield to celebrate.
"This kid."
"More and more comprehensive."
"Evolved again after the World Cup."
The scene of going to the Netherlands to watch the World Youth Championship a year ago is still vivid, and today, a year later.
Everything has changed dramatically.
Who would have thought.
This kid has now become a world-class star, and he is also a non-sale Manchester City player that he can't afford to buy now.
However.
Wenger has never been the type to regret afterwards.
Since he missed it.
Then he will be down-to-earth and look to the future.
This year.
The league championship is still not Wenger's main goal. The ultimate goal is still the biggest regret last year, the Champions League.
Manchester City is very strong.
But those giants from La Liga and Serie A.
To some extent.
are more difficult to deal with than Manchester City, and are also Arsenal's biggest enemy in the Champions League.
"Champions League, Champions League..."
.....................................................
"The magic man Su has five sons! Destroyed Chelsea's defense alone! "
"Su Fei's Community Shield highlights of all five goals, the best striker in the Premier League! "
"The historic Community Shield! Manchester City beat Chelsea! "
"Who will be crowned Premier League in the new season? The latest championship odds are released: Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea fell out of the top four! "
"The first round of the 2006-07 Premier League opening game is coming on August 19! "
The new Premier League season is about to officially start. While reporting on the news related to the Community Shield, the Premier League media also began to warm up for the opening game.
At the same time.
The 20 teams in the Premier League are also in intense preparation.
Birmingham, West Bromwich and Sunderland, which ranked last last season, were relegated to the Championship, and the Premier League welcomed three new promoted teams.
"Biscuit Man" Reading, "Blades" Sheffield United and "Bumblebee" Watford.
And Manchester City's first round opponent in the opening game is the "Biscuit Man" Reading Football Club, one of the three promoted teams.
Reading F.C.
Founded in 1871, the club has been founded for 135 years and has never had any experience in the English top league.
In other words.
This season, Reading is the first team to win the Premier League after 13 years.5 years.
The origin of Reading's nickname "Biscuit Man" comes from Reading's former club, a famous biscuit company in England.
..............................................
August 19.
The entire Manchester City team flew to Reading, Berkshire, in the southeast of England, to play away.
Compared with the luxurious home stadiums of other traditional Premier League teams.
Reading Madejski Stadium can be regarded as the most "shabby" stadium Su Fei has ever seen.
In terms of capacity, Madejski Stadium can only accommodate 24,000 fans. The stadium was built in 1998, and the overall supporting facilities are relatively new.
However.
During the appearance ceremony, the cheers from Reading's home fans were no less than any other Premier League team.
For Manchester City.
This is just an ordinary Premier League game in the new season.
But for Reading's fans.
This is the first time in the 135-year history of the team to compete in the top English tournament.
How enthusiastic are Reading's fans?
Today.
The entire stands are filled with fans wearing blue Reading jerseys. You can't find any fans following Manchester City on the away game.
All the tickets were booked by Reading fans.
Knight couldn't help but complain in Su Fei's ear.
"Today is really a pure away game. When we score a goal later, I don't think we will hear cheers."
"Haha, I think so."
Su Fei agreed with Knight's statement. When Manchester City scored a goal later, the stadium would be quiet and the Manchester City players could only celebrate alone.
......
On the other side, Zhan Jun and Wang Tao also started the live broadcast on time.
"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"
"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"
"Welcome to watch the opening match of the 2006-07 Premier League, Reading vs. Manchester City!"
"I am the commentator Zhan Jun, and I will be partnering with Wang Tao to comment on the game for you."
"The referee is looking at the clock!"
"The game is about to start!"
"First, let me introduce the starting lineups of both teams!"
"The home team, the newly promoted Premier League team wearing blue jerseys and nicknamed Biscuit Man, Reading!"
"Starting goalkeeper: Federici!"
"Defenders: Nick Shorey, Ingimarsson, Andre Bikay, De La Cruz!"
"Defensive midfielder: Ginarsson"
"Three forwards: John Oster, Steve Sidwell, Seol Ki-hyun!"
"Two forwards: Kai Wen Doyle, David Kitson!"
"Reading's side is a 4-4-2 formation with a single defensive midfielder, which is also the usual starting lineup that helped Reading advance to the Premier League!"
"The other side!"
"The visiting team, wearing pink retro jerseys, the Blue Moon, Manchester City!"
"The starting goalkeeper: James!"
"The defenders are..."
"Hey!"
"What a fierce tackle!"
"At the beginning of the game, Knight, who was dribbling to the side, was directly knocked down by Reading's right forward Xue Qixuan!"
"Today's game, the intensity of the confrontation is expected to be not small..."
