Chapter 300: Notch County can be runner-up?

?

Notts County's first game of the new season is not the English League, but a traditional game in England, the Community Shield. ≥≧

Before the name change in o2, the name of the event was the Charity Shield Cup. The two sides of the game were the British League champions and the England FA Cup champions last season. The tickets are all for charitable purposes. The donation target is designated by the two sides.

This is not a very influential game, but as a warm-up before the start of the English League, you can still see something.

Notts County was qualified for winning the FA Cup title, while Notts County’s opponent was the British giants Manchester United, the British champion last season.

After David stayed in Notts County, several of England's strong teams, including Liverpool and Arsenal, Notts County have had the experience of playing, the only one who did not have the experience is only Manchester United.

As the defending champion of the United Kingdom, Manchester United’s operation in the transfer market this summer is not satisfactory. At least from the previous warm-up games, Manchester United has lost the sharpest offensive weapons in the past. Beckham’s departure has made the Red Devils’ The offensive system has undergone a lot of changes. It is too difficult for Ronaldinho to pass the coquettish and long pass of Beckham on the side.

At least in David's opinion, this season's Manchester United is by no means the protagonist. Arsenal in the past life ended the English League with a terrible undefeated record. It is also the most brilliant season for Arsenal.

Of course, this game is not so important. It is good for the team to sprint in the next English league in order to adapt to the atmosphere of playing with the English team in advance.

How many is a champion, David does not think too many championship trophies in the team's honor room.

This game is also considered to be the first appearance of the two teams in the new season after the summer run-in. Therefore, most of the media in the press conference before the game were there.

When asked about his goals for this season, Lord Ferguson did not hesitate to regard the British League Champions League and the Champions League as a bag. It seems that these two championship trophies are worthy of Manchester United's status as a giant.

If David is on the scene, I am afraid that he can stand directly in front of Lord Ferguson and tell him aloud that neither of these two champions Manchester United has played!

Indeed, Arsenal suppressed the league, and although the UEFA Champions League has forgotten which step Manchester United has taken, there is absolutely no Red Devils in the semi-finals, because this season the UEFA Champions League is a very famous history of the counterattack. Season.

When asked about his opinion of the opponent in Notts County, Lord Ferguson smiled unexpectedly strangely, and then spoke a word calmly, and this word also completely ignited the scene of the meeting.

runner up!

This is the word that came out of Lord Ferguson's mouth.

This runner-up obviously does not refer to the League Cup runner-up, nor the FA Cup runner-up, but the British League runner-up.

Ferguson thinks Notts County can win the second place in the English League?

Is this a sincere compliment to Notts County or a derogatory Arsenal from the side?

Obviously, the top league in England has changed from the previous Double Red Club to the direct collision between the Red Devils and Arsenal. After Liverpool lost their championship competitiveness year by year, the fight between Manchester United and Arsenal for the championship has become the main theme of Britain.

In the past seven seasons, the champions of the English League have been swept by these two giant clubs. Arsenal have won two championships, while the other five have been taken into the arms by Manchester United.

In such a fierce competition, Ferguson suddenly came such a sentence, obviously not really optimistic about Notts County, but borrowing this method to devalue his biggest opponent Arsenal!

The reporters were all excited, and originally thought that there would be no interesting news in an insignificant community shield cup, but they did not expect that the old Scottish man Ferguson was not at all lonely!

"Don't you think that the strength of Knotts County is stronger than Liverpool and Newcastle, or even stronger contenders than the British champion Arsenal?" a reporter asked excitedly. This question also represents the doubts of all reporters.

Ferguson nodded with a smile and said seriously: "Yes, in my opinion, Notts County is very strong. If you give them a few more seasons, you may have the ability to win the championship directly, but This season, Manchester United can still suppress their championship. As for Arsenal and other teams, it should not be the opponent of Notts County. After all, Notts County has won the UEFA Cup on behalf of England in the Premier League. The most important thing is If I remember correctly, Notts County had already eliminated Arsenal in the League Cup when they were in the Premier League. Doesn’t that explain the problem!"

The reporters suddenly remembered that Ferguson was really not aimless, but that it did.

The reason why Notts County was able to participate in the UEFA Cup last season as a Premier League club was precisely because it won the English League Cup in the English Premier League last season, and on the road to winning the championship, it was unexpected. Has eliminated Arsenal. That time, it was a shocking shock to England!

But the story of Notts County and Arsenal did not end. Although Ferguson did not say, maybe he forgot or maybe he didn’t know at all, but the reporters remember clearly that in the last quarter of the FA Cup quarter-finals In the battle, Notts County once again stubbornly defeated Arsenal, and finally won the FA Cup championship trophy.

Speaking of that, Notts County has beaten Arsenal twice in a row.

The reporters looked at each other and ignored it before, but the facts are in front of them, Knotts County really has a little meaning of Arsenal!

But the FA Cup and the English League are completely two concepts. Okay Even if Notts County eliminated Arsenal in the cup, does that mean that Notts County can be casual in the English League? Just suppressed Arsenal?

A little nonsense!

No, it's too nonsense!

Not to mention the surprise of a single knockout game, just the degree of Arsenal's investment in the two cups is enough to make Arsenal have something to say.

Obviously Ferguson, the stubborn old man, is using this method to devalue his opponent and find Arsenal uncomfortable, but the question is, does this method really work?

In any case, when Ferguson was present, Love, the younger generation, had no sense of existence at all. Listening to Sir Alex Ferguson talked about it, Love was also crying and laughing. Obviously, it was the first time that Ferguson's mouth had been taught.

"Manchester United is very strong, we will try our best to win the opponent in this game, but no matter what the result is, I think it is a valuable experience for the players, because they are still very young!" The only sentence that husband said at the cloth meeting, but it was still considered by the media to be Luff's lack of confidence and he didn't dare to challenge Manchester United. It really made him helpless for a while. 8
