Chapter 465 The Manchester Derby of the Community Shield
(Reply to two updates tomorrow~~~ I want to try to enter the classified monthly ticket list, so I will add updates based on the two updates. Brothers, please leave all the monthly tickets for me)
Manchester City's performance in three friendly matches in North America was not good, and it was even completely different from what fans expected. In these three matches, Manchester City only won one.
In three games, Manchester City lost 1:3 against Mexico and the Vancouver White Caps lost 2:3 until the end of the Los Angeles Galaxy, Manchester City finally won a victory with a score of 3:2.
The biggest reason for the loss in the first two games was the chaos in Manchester City's midfield. Last season, Manchester City's tactics were centered around Yaya Toure, Silva and Tevez, Yaya Toure's backcourt dispatch, Silva's frontcourt organization, Tevez's final decision.
However, this season, Li Feng's joining will inevitably cause huge changes in Manchester City's midfield. At the same time, Aguero's joining will also have a huge impact on the front line.
In these three games, except goalkeeper Joe Hart, Manchester City were different. Obviously, this trip to North America was just Van Basten's training journey.
After the game against Los Angeles Galaxy, Li Feng exchanged jerseys with Beckham as he wished, and then Manchester City officially ended his trip to North America. Eight �
After returning to Manchester, it has entered August, with only two weeks left before the league starts, but before the league starts, Manchester City still has one game to play.
The England Community Shield, which is held by the FA, is a contest between last season's league champion and FA Cup champion.
Life does not require scripts, but sometimes life is more exciting than scripts. Last season, the English champion was Manchester United and the FA Cup champion was Manchester City.
In other words, this year's Community Shield will become the Manchester Civil War. Seeing such a match is undoubtedly a pleasure, or even a level of enjoyment for fans.
So far, Manchester derby has played 158 games, with Manchester City winning only 43 games in total, 22 less than Manchester United, and the remaining 50 games ending with a draw.
Manchester United also took a slight lead in the derby in the Cup, with the two sides playing 14 games in total, with Manchester City 6 wins, 7 losses and 1 draw.
In terms of the number of wins of the Community Shield, Manchester City cannot compare with Manchester United. The century-old history of the Community Shield is in total. Manchester United has won 18 championships in total, which can be traced back to 19o8. Recently, last year, Manchester United defeated Chelsea 3-1, and Manchester United has participated in this event for four consecutive years. This year is the fifth year. They have won three championships in the previous four years.

However, Manchester City only had pitiful three times. The last time they participated in the Community Shield was dated back to 1972, which is nearly forty years since now. It can be said that both sides are completely incomparable.
Especially this season, after crazy investment, Manchester City's strength on the surface is no less than Manchester City, and it even appears faintly.
After the end of last season, Manchester United legendary midfielder Scholes officially retired, which is one of the reasons why Manchester United pursued Li Feng crazy in the summer.
As for the result, there is no need to be described. Manchester United will then turn to Inter Milan in Serie A. Unfortunately, Inter Milan asked for too high prices. After weighing the trade-offs, Manchester United gave up Sneijder.
Turning to Tottenham midfielder Modric. However, it is not only Manchester United who is interested in Modric, but also his mortal enemy Chelsea. Unfortunately, when the two teams were fighting, the Tottenham chairman actually stood up. Then Modric was labeled as a non-sale product.
In the end, Ferguson turned his attention to Arsenal and France attacked the midfielder. Before, Nasri was in a deadlock with Arsenal due to salary issues. Then, when Arsenal pursued Li Feng, he used the French as a bonus.
This move immediately aroused Nasri's dissatisfaction. The proud French genius introduced the interview as a declaration of leaving the team. The conflict between the two sides could no longer be reconciled. In addition, the French contract was only one year left. In order not to lose all his money, Arsenal could only push Nasri into the transfer market.
Although there are not many teams pursuing Nasri, not many are willing to offer high prices. After all, Nasri's departure is a foregone conclusion. At this time, no one wants to be the sucker. They are even more willing to wait for a year and then get Nasri for free.
However, just when both sides were in this dead end, a quote from Manchester United brought things to a turnaround. Finally, after discussion by Arsenal senior officials, Arsenal agreed to Manchester United's offer.
Immediately, Manchester United officially announced on its official website that Arsenal's French attacking midfielder officially joined Manchester United, with a transfer price of 2ooo,000 pounds. The two sides signed a contract for four years, and the Frenchman's weekly salary was 110,000.
Manchester United lost not only Scholes this summer, but also their legendary goalkeeper Van der Sar. For this reason, Ferguson spent 178o pounds to bring back the 21-year-old De Gea from Atletico Madrid.
The Manchester City Derby has an extraordinary significance for both sides, and it is even more so for new players. This is their first time participating in the Manchester City Derby, which is the best opportunity to be recognized by fans.
As for the media, the two Manchester City heroes started to jump up and down as early as when they were still in North America. After all, there are so many things worth reporting this summer.
Without talking about old hatred, new hatred is eye-catching. Facing the pursuit of Manchester City's two heroes, Li Feng actually rejected Manchester United and chose to join Manchester City. This behavior is enough for Manchester United fans to hold grudges.
In addition, the media also linked Li Feng and Nasri together. Arsenal took the French as a bonus in pursuit of Li Feng, which is also the main reason why Arsenal and Nasri had a falling out.
Moreover, Manchester United's initial choice was not Nasri. In the media, Nasri was just Manchester United's helpless choice after pursuing Li Feng without success.
Although this is true, you have a few meanings to slap in the face so blatantly. So although Li Feng and Nasri have never met, Nasri has already hated Li Feng.
Even Ferguson jumped out without any hesitation, "Malco? I only know that he was a great player, head coach? Oh~~~ I'm sorry, I haven't played against him yet, so I don't know, but~~~ I'm still very welcome to Marco in England to coach."
"Jarguson is a great coach. His achievements at Manchester United deserve respect. In terms of coaching, I am still a newcomer and there are many places to learn." When I heard this, the disappointed expression of the reporters on the scene was beyond words.
