Chapter 16 This Manchester United is not our opponent

With such a big score loss, the Southampton players were naturally very frustrated. In the player channel, Dong Fangzhuo put his right hand on Rooney's arm.

"Don't be depressed,"

"It's not your fault."

It’s not in Manchester United, nor in Chelsea or Manchester City. Is it normal to lose? It’s just that Rooney is not used to it. In the past, winning was common in a giant club, but now it’s natural to lose...

Gerald also had a low face, and at the age of 34 he was also unwilling to admit defeat.

"Steven, I played really well today."

Dong Fangzhuo went to chat with Gerald for a few more words. He has this special identity. As the boss behind Southampton, he doesn't want these two old guys to be discouraged. The league is long and the team needs them.

Even Leicester City can achieve great results. Isn't this Southampton team good? In fact, Dong Fangzhuo is really selfish...

"Your body looks like it's still at least three years old. Take care of them well. Maybe you have a surprise at the end of the season?"

Dong Fangzhuo doesn't treat himself as an outsider at all...

※※※※

With two wins and two draws, Manchester United finally climbed one up the standings, ranking 9th in the league, and was not widened. However, Manchester City and Chelsea still scored three points, and the distance between them was not narrowed. In the scorer list, Dong Fangzhuo, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi were getting farther and farther. The latter two scored twice again, and the gap between the ball was widened.

The news after the game is basically concentrated on Manchester City and Chelsea. Although Manchester United won, the media prefers to report the two tigers between Chelsea and Manchester City, Messi and Ronaldo's battle, Manchester United and Dong Fangzhuo are all downplayed...

The feeling of staying away from the championship group for the time being also makes Manchester United fans really uncomfortable. Just like when Ferguson was not at Manchester United a few years ago, finally, Manchester City fans no longer discuss Manchester United. They only have Chelsea in their eyes. In restaurants and taverns, Manchester City fans are discussing Chelsea and Ronaldo.

"When the international match week ends, after the Champions League, and to face Chelsea at home, Manchester City will definitely be able to beat Chelsea and then sit at the top of the list alone!"

"Guardiola and Messi can definitely beat Mourinho and Ronaldo."

They look forward to the future, and Manchester United fans are also looking forward to the future. In that round of league, Manchester United's opponents were not easy to deal with. They were the old opponent Liverpool, but Manchester United was going to Anfield.

Every year, the same story is repeated...

International games are finally here, but it is a disaster for big clubs like Manchester United. Other teams may be resting. However, in clubs like Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea, their players basically have to participate in national team games. After a week, they don’t know what their condition will be like, nor do they ask for how good they are, but they are satisfied without being injured.

As a result, the lower the idea, the higher the tragedy.

Manchester United lost another team in this international game. French international Schneiderlin injured his left thigh muscle when he played for France for the fourth time. Argentine Di Maria directly twisted her left ankle in order to give Messi an assist. Even Belgian international Fellaini, who came on the bench on England, twisted his waist in the confrontation.

"this……"

After receiving the injury report, Ferguson directly greeted all the national teams of these players. Because of the European Cup, Schneiderlin and Fellaini were excused to be injured, but Di Maria's injury was so painful. It was just an ordinary friendly match. As a result, Di Maria both appeared and fought to the death. Now it was a tragedy. Messi scored a goal, nothing happened, and he was going to sit on the hospital bed.

Manchester United's combat effectiveness has been lost again, with two midfielders and a winger. If Rashford is included, Manchester United actually has almost half of its main players.

Ferguson is glad that Dong Fangzhuo did not go back to participate in any friendly match. Anyone who is too young to Manchester United can accept it, but Dong Fangzhuo cannot be left behind.

He did not forget Schweiingsteiger, but after training in the reserve team for a week, Ferguson finally transferred Schweiingsteiger to the first team again.

Nowadays, Schweiingsteiger is very important. When there is no one available, Schweiingsteiger has the opportunity and must prove himself. If he can't fight, Ferguson might have to deal with him.

Manchester United's bench does not raise waste people.

However, from the training state, Schweiingsteiger did not see much good condition. His defensive level was not good, and there was no characteristic of inserting offense. He just wanted to pass the ball to Dong Fangzhuo's feet...

I have to say that Schweiingsteiger is really a little old, although he is really not very old, he is only 32 years old.

After all, Ferguson was dissatisfied with him and turned to seek new changes.

Ashley Young was mentioned in the midfield, and the left back was handed over to Blinder, and young player Lingard had more opportunities to enter the main force.

In the mid-week Champions League, Ferguson lined up a new formation, 4231, the four defenders were Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Blind, the back midfielder was Lingard and Ashley Young, the first three players were Mata, Dong Fangzhuo and Rashford, and the center was Mbappe.

The lineup is correct, but the staff are a bit inappropriate.

Ferguson still dared to play at home. As a result, the team won 1:0 at home. The game was extremely ugly. Dong Fangzhuo scored the goal. Dong Fangzhuo kicked Wolfsburg's goal with a long shot in the 13th minute of the game. The two teams did not make any achievements after that.

This seems to be the most ugly game that Manchester United has played in the past two years. It only has 10 times and hits the goal frame 4 times.

Needless to say, the performance of this game was immediately criticized by the English media.

The Times said:

"The worst Manchester United in three years! The league victory is not Manchester United's fig leaf. In the Champions League, they began to show a downturn. Such Manchester United is not the real Manchester United. A 1-0 victory cannot cover up Manchester United's ugliness. Who else can do this in the Manchester United team besides King Dong?"

The Manchester Evening News' view is even more pessimistic. From this season, maybe Manchester United will be replaced by Manchester City. Neither domestic nor foreign, it will be comparable to Manchester City. Time will gradually show its true colors. They are no longer able to launch an impact on the championship on these two battlefields. Ferguson should now start introducing defenders and buying a world-class forward.

Every day, there is such a bombing of news, which makes me feel annoyed. Anyway, I am becoming less and less optimistic about Manchester United. Even Manchester United's opponents over the weekend look down on Manchester United.

Liverpool fans started discussing Manchester United with confidence in the forum.
