The team will have great difficulties. I will try my best to complete the tasks assigned to me by the coach and play according to his requirements. Of course, the coach knows how to use me."
In La Liga, David Silva and Yaya Toure were both Aguero's opponents, but now they have become teammates. The Argentine golden boy did not hesitate to praise: "They are great players.

As a friend, he said: "He and I were teammates. He and I got along very well. We are good friends. We played for the Argentine national team and Atletico Madrid together."
Manchester City said that Aguero will participate in this weekend's Dublin Super Cup. In the new season, Aguero will wear Manchester City's No. 16 jersey, which is also his jersey number in the Argentina national team. Aguero's old club
Atletico Madrid also announced the news on its official website and expressed its gratitude to the Argentine forward. "From now on, Aguero will no longer be a member of the team. The club thanks Aguero for his contribution to the ball over the past five years."

The team played 30 games and scored 13 goals.
Manchester United in the same city has already started a series of warm-up matches in the United States and even visited the White House!
Barcelona encountered embarrassment in the United States. They planned to conduct training around the White House, but were kicked away by the security department. Manchester United, who also appeared near the White House, received VIP treatment and was invited to visit the White House.[
Manchester United defeated Barcelona in the Champions League final. In the United States, the Red Devils' brand influence seems to be much greater than Barcelona. Ancelotti and his players were invited to visit the White House. Although they were not received by President Obama, they received special permission.
You can visit the White House at will.
Ancelotti said: "It's great, we all enjoy it. I've been to the White House before, but this time it's still exciting. It's an extraordinary place with history." Manchester United defender Ferdinand will also tour the White House rooms on his own.
The photos were posted on my personal Weibo.
The treatment of European champion Barcelona was completely different. The whole team came outside the White House and planned to do some stretching and running activities, but they were kicked away by security personnel. Midfielder Xavi said: "We were told that there can be up to 10 people at a time.
There were 15 people operating there.” According to the security personnel, the reason why they drove away Barcelona
Players, because so many people are not allowed to gather near the White House. Compared with Manchester United, which has a tour group of more than 40 people, which can enter and leave the White House in a mighty manner, Barcelona, the European champion's golden sign, seems to be difficult to use in the eyes of Americans.
Of course, this also includes itinerary arrangements and the close relationship between British and American culture.
However, the British media were very interested in this matter. The Sun used the headline "Manchester United 3-0 Barcelona". The newspaper joked that the Red Devils defeated Barcelona twice in the Champions League final, but this time it finally became a
A complete victory.
Of course, Barcelona is also actively expanding its influence in the United States. Recently, the team's president Russell and coach Guardiola attended an event with Bill Gates, aiming to cooperate with the Gates Foundation to help polio patients. Then
As Barcelona has gradually established itself as the world's strongest team in the past two years, their influence is also rapidly expanding.
However, Manchester United still has an advantage in terms of brand value and global influence. According to the global ranking of the most valuable clubs released by Forbes last week, Manchester United ranked first in the world with US$18.4 billion, beating the Americans.
There are many professional teams that we are proud of (the Dallas Cowboys football team is second and the New York Yankees baseball team is third). The only football team that is close to Manchester United is Real Madrid, which ranks sixth on the list, while Barcelona does not enter the top ten.
name.
Among the Manchester United generals, the one who gets the most attention in the United States is of course Li Yu, the Manchester United star. Not only in football, his new wife is also the Hollywood star Jenny. After arriving in the United States, many media took photos of Li Yu.
Stealing photos of Jenny, wherever Manchester United No. 9 goes, they will naturally follow in groups.
Li Yu doesn't have anything to do now. You can take pictures if you want. We are aboveboard. Who can say anything wrong about the newlyweds?
While Manchester United was in the United States, Jenny accompanied him throughout the entire process, and Ancelotti did not publicly express any dissatisfaction. Although it was a warm-up match, everyone knew that Manchester United also wanted to open up the American market and make money by the way!
Now the club owner is very happy to have Jenny giving free publicity to the Red Devils, so naturally he won't stop him.
After Jenny finishes filming her latest movie, she will also go to England to stay for a while.
After defeating Barcelona, Manchester United achieved a complete victory in their warm-up trip to the United States. The data of scoring 20 goals and conceding 3 goals made Manchester United full of confidence in the new season. City rival Manchester City was also in good condition after defeating Serie A giant Inter Milan 3-0 without any blood.
.The two teams will provide a high-quality "warm-up" for Premier League fans in this Sunday's Community Shield match.
"Daily Mail" stated that Manchester United assistant coach Mike Phelan believed that this was just a warm-up match with "some flavor". More than three months ago, Manchester City eliminated Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-finals and finally won the FA Cup.
Champions League, this matter still makes Manchester United feel worried. Phelan believes that the Community Shield match with Manchester City is just an appetizer before the start of the league, and there is nothing special. He said: "This (match with Manchester City)
The game) is no different. Manchester United faces challenges from other teams every day, and Sunday's game is just an ordinary one. However, this game will indeed be 'delicious', after all, the two sides are against two Manchester teams.
.We still have a week and we can try something new."
Before every game against Manchester City, the two sides will inevitably have several verbal spats. This is where "noisy neighbors" and Tevez's "Welcome to Manchester!" come from.
In the new season, with the retirement of the old captain Gary Neville, Nani took the initiative to take on this "task". "The Sun" said that after the game with Barcelona, Nani, who performed very well, has already asked his city rivals Manchester City
Issued a warning. Nani said: "In every season, the Community Shield game is an important start, and now this game will become even more important. Manchester City has become very strong, but it will be us, Manchester United, who win!" [
Nani is likely to regain Ferguson's favor through his outstanding performance against Barcelona. And forward Berbatov, who did not get a chance to play in the whole game, may not escape the fate of being purged. "Daily Express" said that La Liga's horse
Laga still has not given up its pursuit of Berbatov. Manchester United has clearly informed Berbatov that the club will evaluate whether to renew his contract after the end of the new season. Berbatov's agent Emil Danchev also
Said: "I will not comment on these rumors. Berbatov is still a Manchester United player. He is very happy in the team. He will not transfer before the expiration of his contract."
In the warm-up match between Manchester United and Barcelona, De Gea played the entire game. Although Thiago scored a goal, his overall performance was still very good.
After the game, head coach Carlo Ancelotti said that De Gea can replace retired goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.
"Manchester Evening News" stated that De Gea's outstanding performance coupled with Lindegaard's strong competition will make youth training youngster Amos face a severe challenge. Amos must now decide whether to stay at Manchester United and accept the challenge. Amos
Si has realized that if he continues to stay at Manchester United, he is likely to spend his new season in the reserve team. Amos said: "This is a difficult decision (whether to stay in the team), and I am still considering it.
I have a chance, but it still depends on the head coach's arrangements. The next few weeks are very important to me, and I will not give up easily."
According to the "Daily Mail" report, Manchester United midfielder Fletcher has completely got rid of the gastrointestinal virus. Fletcher was infected with this strange virus last season, which caused him to lose weight drastically.
He lost the physical strength to participate in the competition. Fletcher was very happy with his complete recovery. He said: "I am very happy to be back. I feel that my weight has been restored very well."
Fletcher has recovered, but Valencia, another general, is still facing physical and mental torture. The Daily Mail said that Valencia, who is struggling with injuries, has been forced to use his image due to issues with his image rights.
Contract renewal negotiations have encountered resistance. Manchester United's eo Gill revealed last Friday that he is confident of completing the contract renewal with Valencia. However, the current negotiations between the two parties have been put on hold and may be delayed until the start of this season.
Contract renewal negotiations between Manchester United and several players have been put on hold, presumably because of the stingy Glazer family.
At the same time, Arsenal's money-making journey is not over yet, first in Asia, and then in their home country against the New York Red Bulls.
Do you remember that he leaned on Dennis Irving to pick up the ball, and under the pressing pressure of Manchester United's iron defender, he fired a volley. The ball shot like a rainbow through the sun, piercing Butters's fingers; did you remember that he took the ball?
Vieira's long pass, after unloading the ball on his thigh, fired directly, the ball was like a cannon, and it hit the dead center of the goal. England goalkeeper James could only watch the ball and sigh; have you ever remembered that he performed a thousand-mile walk-off in the North London Derby?
Riding, he rushed forward from the backcourt, broke through three consecutive blocks and scored, single-handedly destroying the defense of the Gunners' mortal enemy, Tottenham Hotspur... Too many memories, too many emotions,
Now, it has become a common voice, spread all over the stands of the Emirates Stadium, and the banners made by the fans all read the same sentence: "Welehome! therry!" Welcome home, Thierry Henry!
Arsenal's game against the New York Red Bulls was the first time the Emirates Cup invited a team from North America. The intention is self-evident: to invite the former King of Highbury to the Emirates Stadium! Before the game, New York Red Bulls head coach Butts
Grammer said: "Henry has had a phenomenal career, and he deserves the most solemn welcome!" This is indeed the case. During the warm-up before the game, the on-site announcer announced the starting lineups of both sides, and deliberately dropped "Ti" at the end.
"Ery Henry", as soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into a tsunami of applause and cheers, which lasted for up to a minute. Then, when the main players from both sides officially entered the player tunnel, the entire audience burst into laughter.
The fans stood up collectively and gave another long round of applause, not for anything else but because the leader was named Thierry Henry!
After the game started, applause for Henry still sounded from time to time. In the 2nd minute, Henry faced Sagna on the left side of the penalty area. Gervinho double-teamed and unexpectedly sent a heel cross, although his teammates failed to grasp it.
Chance, but Henry's exquisite pass still won the applause of the audience; in the 11th minute, Henry picked up the ball at the top of the penalty area and suddenly took a cold shot. The ball went straight to the lower left corner of the goal against the turf, grazing the left post.
Missed; in the 24th minute, Henry caused a foul on Sarnia at the front of the penalty area and won a free kick. He personally took the penalty. Many fans in the stands shouted "Thierry! Thierry! Thierry!"
", and raised his own camera, ready to capture Henry's scimitar. Henry's shot went over the wall, drew a wonderful arc, and went straight to the upper left corner of the goal. Szczesny jumped up and flew the ball.
Save. Beautiful shot, wonderful defense, thunderous applause from the audience! In the 70th minute, Henry met a diagonal pass from his teammate on the left side of the penalty area and shot directly into the far corner of the goal. Thanks to Szczesny's rapid fall to the ground, he narrowly missed the goal.
The ball was saved and the audience applauded again.
Trying again and again finally paid off in the 84th minute. Henry took the ball in the upper left corner of the penalty area. He observed Roy Miller coming in at high speed and calmly sent a through ball. He handled it with just the right amount of force. Roy Miller scored.
The ball was already on the edge of the small penalty area. He took advantage of the situation and knocked on the door. The ball passed the attacking Szczesny and was hit by Arsenal youngster Bartley into the empty goal! 1-1! Red Bull tied with the Gunners!
Wenger said in an interview before the game: "Henry's return is very special for me, the club and the fans. He has left too many great memories here. I know he will test our defense.
, I don’t know if he can score goals, but I hope he works hard to score goals.” As Wenger said, Henry, who will be 34 years old on August 17, although his physical fitness and speed are difficult to regain his courage,
But the former Arsenal No. 14 still possesses superb skills and a strong desire to attack! Henry, wearing the New York Red Bulls No. 14 jersey, although he failed to score in this game, his dashing assist was equally valuable.
!It was with this goal that the New York Red Bulls won the championship with a record of 1 win and 1 draw, and captain Henry won the Emirates Cup!
As the match report on Arsenal's official website said: "This is Thierry's day!" (twstherry'sy) Wenger also said after the game: "People always say that great clubs never die; it seems that great clubs
Athletes will never die. Thierry showed us today with his feet and brain that he still has top-level abilities. I am very happy to see him today. He played a very good game.
game.”
Wenger is full of affection for Henry, and Henry is also full of respect for his mentor. He said at the press conference before the game: "I know that some people have asked Arsene (Wenger) to leave recently. But it was he who changed this.
club. If it were up to me, I would definitely keep him and let him coach Arsenal for the rest of his life! They were very close to the championship, but they just couldn't do it. When he really stops one day, people will realize
Really, what does Arsene mean." Henry was also full of affection for the Arsenal fans. He said at the post-match press conference: "This is really incredible. As soon as I get the ball during the game, the fans will support me.
Cheer, cheer for me when I am my opponent.”
"Arsenal will always be in my blood, forever in my heart, and I will miss you forever. I said I would be a Gunner for the rest of my life, and I didn't lie, because once you are a Gunner, you will always be a Gunner.
.Arsenal club is still in my heart and will always be there." Henry said this when he moved to Barcelona for 16 million pounds four years ago. Now, although things have changed, he and Arsenal are still the same.
Na and Na still love each other. Even though there has been anger and loss, these are temporary. Only love is eternal. Perhaps, this is the meaning of "family"...
Once again getting an embarrassing draw at home, once again being equalized when leading the score, Wenger and his Arsenal are suffering from unprecedented doubts. But what's worse is that midfielder Will
Sher was actually injured in this game against the New York Red Bulls.
After the game, head coach Wenger first talked about the injury of his favorite general Wilshere: "They told me that Wilshere may not return to the game before the end of next week, and he will miss the team's warm-up match with Benfica.
.If his injury recovery is not satisfactory, he is likely to miss the next England team game." The professor said disappointedly: "Of course, Wilshere is a strong kid, and his recovery speed from injuries is always...
It can surprise people, so I hope he can make a miraculous comeback this time."
At the last moment of the game, Arsenal fans booed deafeningly because they were dissatisfied with the home team's poor performance and weak defense. In response, Wenger said slightly reproachfully: "I can understand the fans' desire for us to win.
, but we don’t want such boos to bring extra pressure to the team. At the moment, I
The most important thing for us is to prepare for the new season, and the result of this game is really not very important." When talking about the transfer market, Wenger once again said: "We are trying to strengthen the team's strength. The club is currently
We are working very hard to step up the pace of signings, but so far we still have no specific target."
Finally, Wenger finally talked about his former favorite Henry. The French professor originally wanted to let Henry play for Arsenal for 5 minutes at the last moment of tonight's game, but because it was not allowed by FIFA's game rules, he was the referee.
If you don't agree, you have to give up. "I once discussed with the referee the suggestion of letting Henry play for us, but the referee did not allow it because a player cannot play for two teams in one game."
Similarly, Henry himself was very reluctant about this: "Such a rule is too weird and incredible. I wanted to play for Arsenal for a while. Such a friendly match is nothing at all. You know I have played in an Arsenal jersey."
Too many games. The fate is so incredible. Almost every time I touch the ball, every time
Fans applauded me when I ran to the sidelines, so I responded to them with applause and wonderful performance." As for the fans booing the Arsenal team at the end of the game, Henry chose to avoid it: "I didn't listen at all.
Yeah, because I was so tired at the end of the game, I was chasing the ball the whole game."
