In the match with Leicester City, Chu Ge only played half a game, and received a total of 3 million appreciation points.

When he was in La Liga last season, he played close to the whole game in the average game, and the praise points he received were about 3.5 million.

Obviously.

As his fame increased, Chu Ge's speed of gaining appreciation points was also accelerating.

If you extrapolate according to the appreciation points obtained by the Community Shield, for every ordinary game in the Premier League, Chu Ge should receive more appreciation points than during the La Liga period.

After the Champions League final, in order to improve his shooting ability to SS, Chu Ge basically spent all his appreciation points.

And in the offseason, with the growth of fame, Chu Ge's appreciation points are constantly growing even if he does not participate in the competition. It's just that the appreciation points increase a little slower than when you participate in the competition.

Coupled with the appreciation points of this game with Leicester City, the total number of appreciation points that Chu Ge has accumulated so far is almost close to eight million.

Unlike Serie A and La Liga, the Premier League has a higher number of close teams.

Manchester United's games against Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and even Tottenham Hotspur will attract a lot of attention.

While a single game may not be as impactful as the Spanish national derby, it is a large number of wins.

These games have accumulated, and Chu Ge estimates that he will accumulate points faster in the Premier League than in Real Madrid.

Despite the fact that Manchester United does not have a Champions League.

But Manchester United are a team with Chu Ge at their core.

This is a big difference from the Real Madrid period.

In Manchester United, Chu Ge will gain more exposure than Real Madrid. Moreover, no one here will take the credit of Chu Ge, as long as Chu Ge performs well enough, as long as the team's results are good, the media and fans will focus their appreciative eyes on Chu Ge alone.

Maybe Ibrahimovic and Pogba will also take some.

However, Chu Ge, Ibrahimovic and Pogba are all new players at Manchester United, and everyone's competition is on the same starting line.

This is exactly what Chu Ge wants.

……

As the league approaches, the line-ups of the Premier League teams for the new season are gradually taking shape.

In this summer's transfer market, the biggest spenders are undoubtedly Manchester United.

And other strong teams also have a lot of investment.

As the new season approaches, The Times has compared the transfer investments of several Premier League powerhouses.

Chelsea have bought Michy Batshuayi (£33.15 million), Marcos Alonso (£24 million) and David Luiz (£34 million) since manager Antonio Conte took over.

At the same time, they sold "Egyptian Messi" Salah to Roma for 12.75 million pounds.

Arsenal have also invested quite a bit in the transfer market, with new signings such as Mustafi (£35 million), Xhaka (£38.25 million), Mkhitaryan (£25 million) and Lucas Perez (£17 million).

Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are also investing heavily.

They have signed new signings such as John Stones (£47.5 million), Leroy Sane (£42.5 million), Ilkay Gundogan (£23 million) and Nolito (£15 million).

Liverpool also have several heavyweight signings, such as: Sadio Mane (£35 million), Wijnaldum (£24 million), Karius (£5.3 million).

Among the five strong teams in the Premier League, Liverpool, who invested the least, also spent 65 million pounds, while Manchester United spent the most 250 million pounds.

The Times described it as an "arms race" in the Premier League.

The craziest team in this arms race is undoubtedly Manchester United.

They broke several records.

The transfer value of Chu Ge and Pogba has surpassed that of Ronaldo and Bale before, becoming the two most expensive players in the transfer market.

Manchester United spent £250 million in a single transfer period, making it the team that spent the most in a single transfer window in football history.

"After the return of Alex Ferguson, the godfather of the Red Devils, Manchester United announced their return in this way. Chu, Paul Pogba, N'Golo Kante and Ibrahimovic are four heavyweight signings that will make Manchester United one of the toughest opponents in the minds of any team in the new season. ”

After spending heavily on strengthening the team's defeats, Manchester United are undoubtedly the favourites to win the title this season.

But.

They weren't the hottest team in the eyes of the media and spinach.

The favourites are Manchester United's local rivals, Manchester City.

Manchester City are priced at 3.5 to win the tournament on bet365, the top of all 20 Premier League teams.

"After signing John Stones at a high price, Manchester City, who have Kompany and Stones, may be the team with the strongest centre-back combination in the league. Although they were unfortunately robbed of Chu by their city rivals, the whole of Europe was crazy about Chu, but the addition of Leroy Sane still allowed Manchester City's frontcourt strength to continue to improve. The combination of Sergio Aguero, Leroy Sane, David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne will be the biggest guarantee for Manchester City to compete for the league title this season. ”

"At the same time, we can't forget Manchester City's biggest signing: Pep Guardiola."

Manchester City is followed by Manchester United and Chelsea.

Manchester United's odds to win the title are 5.0 and Chelsea's are 5.5, which is about the same for the two teams. Liverpool (8.0) and Arsenal (9.5) are close behind.

Leicester City, who won the title last season, adjusted their odds to win the championship from 1 to 5,000 last season to 1 to 29, ranking 7th among the Premier League teams.

Obviously, everyone is not optimistic about Leicester City's title defense this season.

In an interview with reporters, Leicester City's Italian coach Ranieri said that Leicester City's task in the new season is to get 40 league points and fight for relegation.

This old handsome man is obviously well versed in the mysterious oriental philosophy, and he is low-key and has a good character.

While analyzing the chances of each team winning the championship, the media did not forget to summarize several highlights of the Premier League in the new season.

Manchester United accounted for two.

One is whether Alex Ferguson's return after a three-year hiatus can set things right and lead Manchester United's revival. Will the old coach's comeback this time be like Liverpool's legendary king Dalglish, who smashed his own signboard.

The other is Chu Ge, who is under the halo of Ronaldo and Real Madrid, and Pogba, who has returned at a sky-high price, whether they can prove that they are worth their money in the new season.

Chu Ge did well in the Community Shield.

However, the English media did not approve of this.

The reason is simple.

Leicester City are not a traditional powerhouse, they are not strong enough. Moreover, the pre-season matches are warm-up matches, and even the Community Shield final is not as intense as the official Premier League matches.

Everyone admits that Chu Ge is a young man with outstanding talent.

However, in the high-intensity confrontation of the Premier League, whether Chu Ge, who took on the team's offensive responsibility for the first time, can still be as good as last season when he was in Real Madrid.

Many people expressed skepticism.

After leaving the help of Cristiano Ronaldo, Bale, Modric and other big-name teammates, in an unfamiliar league environment, facing huge pressure, whether Chu Ge will encounter the "rookie wall" is also a major highlight of the Premier League in the new season.

The Liverpool Echo specifically pointed out that Argentine "White Wizard" Juan Veron, and World Cup Ballon d'Or Diego Forlan have all been in the Premier League.

These two excellent players have one thing in common with Chu Ge, and that is that they both joined Manchester United.

In addition, Chelsea's Andriy Shevchenko and Lazio's Mendieta have both been widely acclaimed and widely regarded as the best players in the world. However, they all suffered a painful Waterloo after their transfer away from their familiar surroundings.

Will Chu Ge be next?

The Liverpool Echo featured prominently on the front page, raising their doubts.

Besides.

Will Arsene Wenger leave Arsenal after this season?

With character coach Antonio Conte, will Chelsea rediscover the blue-collar spirit they once had?

At Anfield, Jurgen Klopp will have his first full season at Liverpool. After Matip, Mane and other strong reinforcements joined, what kind of report will Klopp deliver?

……

As the new season draws closer, more and more discussions about this season are starting to grow.

And at this time.

Chu Ge gave an exclusive interview to Manchester United's official website.

'I know a lot of people are waiting to see Manchester United and my jokes, and I know that after I joined the team, all kinds of weird voices never stopped.

"I'm a player, not an actor or whatever."

"I'm going to use my performance on the field to respond."

'Since joining Manchester United, Ferguson and the rest of my team-mates have been telling me what Manchester United means. This is England's most successful team, having won the only treble in England. We've been missing out on the league title for the past three years and all Manchester United have had enough of that. ”

'I know it's difficult, but for Manchester United, there's only one big goal for the new season, and that's to win the league.

"I will give my all for this goal."

……

August 14th.

The new season of the Premier League has officially begun.
