Manchester City FC is also in a stable situation right now, the players returned last month, only a few players who participated in the World Cup returned a little later, but now they are all in place except Ding Hongxing for pre-season training. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

France, as Ding Hongxing remembers, defeated Brazil 3-0 to win the World Cup, and the rest of the Manchester City players who participated in the World Cup, except for Córdoba who did not get many opportunities to perform due to Colombia's early exit, the rest of the players performed well.

In this summer, the players of the Manchester City team, as in previous years, were coaxed by many big clubs, and they offered a high transfer fee to buy several Manchester City players, including Ding Hongxing, Real Madrid and other clubs even offered a high price of 50 million US dollars to get Ding Hongxing, but according to Ding Hongxing's instructions, Van Tengberg rejected all offers.

The current Manchester City team is strong and cooperative, as long as the player himself does not apply for a transfer, he will not be sold as a player.

Manchester City players basically did not apply for a transfer, in Manchester City, the salary can reach a first-class level, there is no worry about no honor to take, the atmosphere in the dressing room is good, there is a boss like Ding Hongxing who does not bully his teammates, there is anything he stands up for, is there anything bad about staying here?

The most important thing is that Manchester City has been winning, a team that has been winning, there is no need to change.

Of course, the change is not nothing, Quinn said that he is old, he took the initiative to apply to Mu Shengli to reduce his playing time, this is not a problem, his reduced playing time, just give Vanney, Vanney after several seasons of training, is now a very good center, in addition to his heading skills and confrontation ability and the peak of Quinn, there are still some gaps, in all aspects are stronger than Quinn, especially his sense of smell and scoring ability, is already the level of a first-class center.

Quinn is thirty-two years old after all, his physical fitness is declining day by day, and it is okay to cope with some low-level competitions, and if the confrontation is too strong, he will be a little powerless.

Due to the stability of the locker room and the fact that there are not many players participating in the World Cup, the pre-season training of the players is very systematic, only Ding Hongxing alone has missed most of the pre-season training, but everyone is an old teammate, and there is no major change in tactics, as long as Ding Hongxing's own training is not left behind, it is very easy for him to integrate into the team.

Mu Shengli was still a little worried about Ding Hongxing, he had carried a sandbag for more than a month, and his physical fitness and skills would not decline, but after Ding Hongxing participated in the first training session, he was relieved, Ding Hongxing was still the same Ding Hongxing, the superstar who won the European Golden Ball Award and the World Footballer, he is still the one with the best performance on the field.

As long as Ding Hongxing's form is not a problem, Mu Shengli is completely relieved, and he is fully confident that he will still lead the Manchester City team to good results this season.

The 18-year-old has officially entered the first team this season and has been developed into a versatile defender at both left-back and right-back in Manchester City's Academy, with good defensive and assist qualities that will be a great addition to the first team.

Wright Phillips and several other outstanding youth team players have been loaned to Leyton East, which excelled last season and have been promoted to League Two. Ambitious and wanting to make a big splash, Hearn bought a couple of former League One players and loaned out a couple of young players from Manchester City.

Manchester City's first official game of the season came just days after Ding Hongxing returned to Manchester, and this game was of course the Charity Shield of this season, which was originally the league title last season against the FA Cup winner, but Manchester City won all the titles they could have won last season, so of course this game can only be against Arsenal, the runners-up of the league and FA Cup last season.

The game was held at Wembley Stadium in London on August 9 and most teams don't particularly care about the Charity Shield, but because of this, this game tends to be very open and can play big scores, which can often give the Premier League season a good start.

For this game, the audience also has a lot of expectations, a lot of doubts, looking forward to the introduction of French midfielder Pire and striker Wiltord this season's Arsenal team, can challenge Manchester City's dominance, doubts are that Ding Hongxing did not participate in the pre-season training of the Manchester City team, whether there will be any problems with his state in the new season.

Pire and Wiltord originally came to Arsenal after two seasons, but the dominance of Manchester City has made Wenger always try to find excellent players to improve the strength of the team, his influence in France is very large, so he can buy most of the French players, Pire and Wiltord put in his team in advance, plus the previous excellent French players such as Petit and Vieira, the Arsenal team has also formed a strong French gang.

Of course, new players still need to run in, and the actual effect depends on the situation of the game.

Ding Hongxing's state is even more worrying, everyone basically knows about Ding Hongxing's participation in the flood relief in his hometown, when he thinks of a superstar worth a huge amount of money, he actually carries a sandbag on the embankment like an ordinary man, everyone has a weird feeling, after not training for so long, can Ding Hongxing exert his strength?

However, at the beginning of the game, Ding Hongxing proved that there was no problem with his form, and in the fifth minute, he took advantage of the shortcomings of the Arsenal midfield's lack of tacit understanding, dribbled the ball through the siege of three players, and fired a furious shot at the edge of the penalty area to open the scoring for Manchester City.

It can be seen that Wenger wants to make Pire the attacking core of the midfield, and Pire also has such technical ability, but the cooperation between him and his teammates is still a little rusty when he first arrives, which also leads to the Arsenal team's midfield operation is a little sluggish, and there are relatively large holes at both offensive and defensive ends.

Thankfully, this is just a Charity Shield and not a big game, so Wenger can still sit still, and he is determined to use this game to run in the squad.

There was no suspense in the situation, as Ding Hongxing scored a hat-trick in the first game, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Seedorf scored one each, and Ovmars and Wiltord pulled back two points to end the Charity Shield in a 5-2 scoreline.
