Two rounds ahead of schedule in the group stage of the Champions League, although it has not been able to lock in the first place in the group, it has allowed the main players of Manchester United to have a little rest, train the substitutes and newcomers, and ease the employment crisis that may be brought about by the United's three line battle.
The weekend's match with wolves is related to whether Manchester United can catch up with the record of 11 consecutive wins set by Tottenham in the last century. Most coaches will attach great importance to it, but Ferguson doesn't care. In order to prepare for the city derby with Manchester City next week, Ferguson has drawn up a semi main team to forge United's potential newcomers. Giggs, Scholes, Neville even don't have a big list In.
Manchester United's youngsters are very competitive. They beat wolves 4-0 at home, Rooney scored a hat trick, Hernandez scored a goal, and Gao Xiaodong arranged four assists for the whole team.
After the match, the media finally recognized Ferguson's view after playing in the Champions League and praised the youth storm of Manchester United. They thought that although the young people of Manchester United rarely came from the youth training camp of Manchester United, they could copy the miracle of class 92 of Manchester United that year.
"If anyone doubts Alex Ferguson's ambition, then he must be wrong," Ferguson said triumphantly after the game. I've been here for 24 years, and I'll stay longer and have more expectations. When we win, we get praise, just like when we don't perform well, there will be voices of doubt, which can't affect me I know how to build a team and I've been doing that for many years. Now I have a group of outstanding young people who will develop in the club. We are training these young people. They will become more and more outstanding and will eventually replace the old players and continue to dominate the Premier League and the Champions League
For next week's City Derby, Ferguson does not care, "derby is always very special, we must take it seriously, but Manchester City has never been our opponent, they are just a noisy neighbor, our opponent was Liverpool, then Arsenal, and then Chelsea, opponents have been changing, but we have not changed."
"In the past few years, we have seen a lot of wealthy owners become part of the football club. When they enter this field, they almost spend money like the Shenfeng special attack team. It's still amazing to see such endless spending in the current game. But it's not very useful. I think in the next two or three years, they will understand that just by throwing money, they won't get the results you want. "
In the face of such disdain from Sir Alex, Manchester City Manager Mancini certainly can't admit it. When he was interviewed by the daily mail, he resolutely attacked Ferguson.
"What Ferguson said doesn't matter to me at all. I respect his point of view, but I have to reiterate that, like Manchester City now, Manchester United have spent a lot of money in the past. Don't talk about us all the time! Don't forget, Manchester United also spent 80 million to buy Gao Xiaodong last season. When you want to get a good player, it's normal to spend more money. That's the market! Chelsea have been successful by spending money. I think Manchester City will be successful too. This is modern football
Then Mancini deliberately ignored Manchester United, who won 11 in a row, when talking about the championship situation this season.
"Chelsea is the most stable and powerful team in the Premier League. Only Arsenal can compete with them in terms of technology. But Chelsea have stronger physical quality, which is why they are stronger than Arsenal. Although we beat them in the league, I told Ancelotti after the match with them, "I beat you, but you will win the League because you are better off than me and everyone else."
Mancini is not as aggressive as Ferguson in the water battle, but he deliberately ignores the 11 consecutive wins that have created the history of Manchester United. Of course, Ferguson is very comfortable.
Ferguson then held a press conference, Mancini, "who is the best team in the Premier League?" Mancini has the final say. Manchester United won 11 consecutive games, and created the record of Manchester United. This will be a history book. I believe that after the next match against Manchester City, we will break the hottest streak record, hoping Mancini will continue to say Chelsea and Arya. Senna is the best team
Mancini responded: "Manchester United may win the championship, but it does not mean that they are the best team. We can only say that they are good at winning. We may not win the final championship, but we will never allow Manchester United to make history on our shoulders."
The two coaches fought against each other across the air, and the players from Manchester City and Manchester United naturally joined in.
Argentina beast Tevez, who has been transferred to Manchester city without being used by Manchester United, took the lead in the battle, saying: "I don't care how many consecutive wins Manchester United has won and what records they have set. They won't win at our home. I have been longing for the Manchester Derby for a long time. I am in good condition now and I want to kick Manchester United out of Manchester."
Tevez's attack on Manchester United was quickly hit back by Gary Neville. "Manchester City are playing in council house now. (in a big city like London or Manchester, the less secure area is usually the CouncilHouse, a national residence close to an industrial area, which means that Neville belittles the city.) ""Manchester United can't win the championship forever, but even if we don't win the championship, we will at least be ahead of Manchester City, which will never change," he said
Rooney's speech is more simple and crude, "no matter what kind of game, even the warm-up game, we must blow Manchester City, wait, we will set a record in the city stadium."
Manchester City's talented striker Balotelli's way of participating in the war of words is the same as his people. He said: "before I came to Manchester City, I didn't even know about this team, but it doesn't matter. Since I came here, Manchester City has become greater than Manchester United. Mancini said that Manchester United didn't play well. He always made a lot of sense. What Manchester United will play is only my good friend Gao Xiao Winter, but I will score one more than him in this game. After the game, I will comfort him and exchange jerseys with him
The team-mates performed well in the war of words. When Manchester City transferred in the summer, they always wanted to buy Gao Xiaodong, and the annual salary for Gao Xiaodong was much higher than other teams. Gao Xiaodong intended to keep a low profile and didn't take part in it. Unexpectedly, Balotelli pulled him out again. Gao Xiaodong had to respond on his Twitter: "OK, let Mario get one more than me, but I'm not sure After that, Manchester United won the game
Then in an interview with reporters, Gao Xiaodong explained his words on twitter, "the importance of the derby is second only to the champion. Although I want to score, I hope the team can win. Manchester City's strength has been greatly improved, but they still can't compete with us. They'd better think about how to win the Champions League. The champion is ours. "
before Mansoor, a rich man in the Middle East, came to Manchester City, the Manchester Derby was not outstanding. However, with the strength of Manchester city increasing, Manchester derby has become one of the most important competitions in the Premier League. More than the previous double red cross.
