Chapter 1: The Seven Crowns

In the midst of all the disturbances, the Premier League finally ushered in the 2015-16 season, a new chapter, a new journey.

Defending champions Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur kicked off the season and United fans can't wait to start watching it at Old Trafford.

Ferguson and Dong Fangzhuo attended the first home press conference of the new season together in midweek, and nearly 300 reporters almost filled the press conference.

Ferguson first confirmed the captaincy for the new season.

With Wayne Rooney gone, there is no doubt that the captain's armband is back in the hands of Dong Fangzhuo, who is the undisputed first captain of Manchester United.

Everyone is concerned about the second and third captains.

There are not many veteran players in the team, and the veteran players have basically left Manchester United, and the second and third captains are in suspense.

As a result, Valencia became the second captain.

The third captain fell to Fellaini.

Alex Ferguson has yet to bring a new centre-back to the Reds, who will start the season with their current squad. However, Ferguson has regained his former vigor and is not worried about United's defence.

"I think in this era, it's still an era of rampant offense."

"This season, we're still going to see a Manchester United team that's sharp and aggressive.

'Think of Chelsea and Manchester City, they have the same great players, Liverpool and Tottenham are eyeing each other, it's ridiculous to try to win with defence, and the attack is still the main theme in the Premier League.

Talking about the opening match that will start in the afternoon, Ferguson expressed caution and joked.

"Tottenham is not the Tottenham of the past, every time we meet them, my players get very excited, ah, the boys are here."

'But today is different, with Pochettino in charge of Tottenham, Tottenham have become a team that can compete for the league title and they have the ability to beat any team. I'm not complimenting them, they have the strength. ”

'Today we played at home and we have to pay attention to them because I think it's going to be a good game and there will be no fewer goals!'

※※※※

Dong Fangzhuo returned to the team and also accepted a ten-minute interview.

For becoming the captain again, Dong Fangzhuo seems to have no pressure.

'I've been through so much for me to be captain again and I know my responsibility to lead young Manchester United on the hunt for new honours. Compared to a decade ago, the competition looks tenfold more difficult. ”

"But it's also the most glorious era of the Premier League, and it's exciting to play with great players like Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo."

'For the new season, our goals are still the league title, the Champions League, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Club World Cup at the end of the year.

"That's right, if you count the Community Shield and the Super Cup, our goal this season is to win seven crowns, I haven't won seven crowns yet, and this season I hope to achieve that dream, and that's our biggest motivation!"

There was an uproar in the audience, seven-time champion, what an unattainable achievement! Or compete with Ronaldo and Messi in the same league, no matter how strong Dong Fangzhuo's ability is, his luck is not so good, the championship has been taken away by him, so Ronaldo and Messi can't even drink a sip of soup?

This press conference was broadcast live, and it just so happened that Messi and Ronaldo were watching the live broadcast. Although the two people are not in the same space, their expressions are almost the same.

"What a big breath!"

"What a big breath!"

At the same time, both of them made a decision in their hearts that they would never let Dong Fangzhuo's dream come true! When pigs fly! The remaining five titles, apart from the fact that they have no way to compete in the Club World Cup, are all capable of competing for it.

Especially the league winners and the Champions League!

Dong Fangzhuo's manifesto is actually theirs as well.

A little later, Ronaldo also followed Mourinho to attend the pre-match press conference, and reporters also mentioned what Dong Fangzhuo said earlier.

Ronaldo replied arrogantly: "Dong thinks too much, I won't let his dream come true." Chelsea and I need titles, we both want the league and the Champions League! ”

"This year's Premier League will not be a solo Premier League, as for the result, we will know until the end of the season."

Messi then attended the press conference, and in the face of the same question, Messi was as low-key as ever, but he also expressed his desire for the title.

'I'm here for the title and I'm going to give my all for City. Everyone wants the title, but there is only one title, and as Ronaldo said, it will be known at the end of the season. ”

The big battle has not yet begun, the smoke has already filled, and the three strongest guys in the English league have begun to shout......

And the new league odds have also been updated.

The odds to win the Premier League have changed again, Manchester United has the lowest odds to win the title at around 2.50, while Chelsea and Manchester City are catching up at around 4.00, Arsenal's 6.00 odds to win the title are in fourth place, while Liverpool is close to 29.00 to win the title seems a bit of an impossible task, and Tottenham's 150 times shows the decline of the team's overall competitiveness among several teams in London; Southampton has odds of about 300 times that they can only accompany the prince to study.

Looking at the top 4 teams in the odds to win the championship, there is not much difference between them, and they all have a chance to win the championship.

In the relegation odds, Watford is about 1.72, followed by Norwich's 2.0, the second favorite for relegation, Bournemouth is about 2.5 is also a half-catty gap, even Sunderland is about 3.00 is not a big gap, and Leicester City, Aston Villa, West Brom are also one of the teams that may fall into the relegation circle if they are not careful.

But if Dong Fangzhuo sees this odds, he will definitely laugh off, because the champion of this season was originally Leicester City, and now the odds are actually optimistic that Leicester City may be relegated......

Of course, this is not the same as in the past, and it is unknown whether Leicester City will be relegated, but they want to win the title? Ask Ronaldo, Dong Fangzhuo and Messi.

In terms of teams, United are slightly ahead of Chelsea and Manchester City, but when it comes to top scorers, things are a bit different, as Dong Fangzhuo is often absent from the front line, so he is not the favorite to be the top scorer.

The favorite for the top scorer is Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldo ranks first with a number of 2.30, as the former top scorer in the Premier League, Ronaldo does not need to adapt to the Premier League, Chelsea's offensive firepower is almost concentrated on him, and there are Hazard, Oscar, Willian and Cesc Fabregas around the top of the list, the probability of winning the top scorer is too great.

The second place is Messi, Messi has a lot of helpers around him, no worse than Chelsea, the disadvantage may be Messi's first year in the Premier League, and physical fitness may also be one of the reasons, but Messi's super personal ability makes up for it. His number is 2.70, which is not much different from Cristiano Ronaldo.

In third place is Dong Fangzhuo, who has a stat of 3.4. Although ranked third, it is not much different, and the reason why Dong Fangzhuo is ranked third is because he does not play as a striker most of the time, and may play in the front midfield or in the middle of the midfield, which will reduce his shooting opportunities. At the same time, his team-mates have changed, and he is probably more of a supporter of Rashford than a team-mate who supports him to score. But even so, he is still in third place.

In fourth place is Aguero, but his number is 5.00, which is a bit far from the previous three, indicating that he is not favored by the spinach company.

Tottenham's Harry Kane is fifth with his figure at 6.00.

Lineker, who was ready to broadcast live on the spot, expressed his opinion on the top scorer, saying: "In terms of probability, Ronaldo is the most promising top scorer, but Messi, who does not admit defeat, is the best Messi, and he may continue the form in the Copa America, but if King Dong wants to win the top scorer, I think the first two will lose to him, as long as Dong wants, I think he can do it, the Premier League title may not be Manchester United, but the top scorer he can fight for himself." ”

"As for the eventual league title? I think Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City are all on the same page, so I don't know who it will be. ”

"But I know who's going to be fourth in the league, it's Arsenal......

As for Liverpool and Tottenham, they are not at all on Lineker's radar.

At 16:00 in the afternoon, Old Trafford was already overcrowded, and nearly 90,000 fans came to the stadium, which was beyond the reach of Old Trafford.

Tickets are hard to come by.

As a last resort, many fans can only watch the big screen outside the stadium.

The same is true at the Etihad Stadium and Stamford Bridge, where many fans come to see Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi play. This is the first home stadium of their respective teams, and who doesn't want to see the performance of the three stars of the day?

At 16:15, Dong Fangzhuo put on the captain's armband and walked out of the stadium and gave a five-minute speech in front of the 88,000 fans at the scene.

"Another new season has begun."

"We're going to start a new journey."

"We're going to do everything we can to get all the titles!"

Then, Dong Fangzhuo made a 7-character gesture, full of pride!

"That's what we're aiming for!"

The scene was thunderous with cheers and cheers.

"Dong,"

"Dong,"

"Dong!"

"Seven crowns!"

"Seven crowns!"

"Seven crowns!"

The enthusiasm of Manchester United fans was completely ignited by Dong Fangzhuo......

Even the Tottenham players waiting in the tunnel were a little chilling, playing at Old Trafford was so tiring!

Tottenham captain Harry Kane tightened the captain's armband in his hand, and a hint of confusion suddenly flashed in his eyes. He really wants to play at Old Trafford.

Ferguson has never offered him an olive branch, and Ferguson has opted for the younger Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial, ignoring him as a new England striker.

He also failed to fulfill his desire to play with Dong Fangzhuo, the player he admired the most over the years, and he had been imitating Dong Fangzhuo for more than a decade, but he eventually found that he himself had no such talent......

He couldn't help but be disappointed in his heart, in the Ferguson era, maybe he will never have the opportunity to join Manchester United again, since he can't join, then give them a goal!

After Dong Fangzhuo returned to the players' tunnel, the players from both sides began to walk out of the court......

Then the president of the FA said a few words on the spot, and the 201516 season of the Premier League season officially opened!

Dong Fangzhuo and Harry Kane hugged and then started guessing the coin to pick the edge, and eventually Tottenham won the kick-off.

At the same time, Messi in Manchester City and Cristiano Ronaldo in Chelsea also walked out of the stadium at the same time to receive the worship of their respective fans......

'It's set to be one of the most spectacular seasons in Premier League history.'

"Nearly 2 billion people around the world are said to be watching the new Premier League season, with 105 countries broadcasting live matches."

"It's crazy."

'Alright, now let's take a look at the starting line-ups for Manchester United and Tottenham.'

"On the Manchester United side, the goalkeeper is De Gea, the back line is Valencia, Rojo, Jones and Ashley Young, the midfielders are Mata, Schneiderlin, Fellaini, the forwards are Mbappe, King Dong, Di Maria, they play 433, King Dong appeared on the front line today, youngsters Rashford and Januzaj continue to be suspended, and Anthony Martial is injured and absent."

"Tottenham, goalkeeper: Lloris; Defenders: Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose, midfielders: Bentlaib, Mason, Carroll, Eriksen, Chadley; Striker Kane, they played 4231. ”

'Before the game, Spinach thought Manchester United could afford to concede a goal at home, and Manchester United went through two tough battles in a row in the Community Shield and the UEFA Super Cup, but in the end they won both opponents and won two titles in the new season.

"Just now, King Dong repeated Manchester United's goal this season, which is to win all the titles and become a seven-time champion. Whether Manchester United can achieve their dreams or not, this game is the beginning. ”

"Of course, King Dong has two most important opponents, Messi and Ronaldo appeared on the British field at the same time to put pressure on him, and the two of them also want to prove themselves, so the seven crowns are not so easy to get, the whole season will be full of disputes, Ronaldo and Messi will let Dong succeed so easily, maybe at the end of the season, the three of them will share seven championships, and no one can completely defeat anyone."

"At this time, Chelsea and Manchester City have also started their journeys at the same time, and I believe that after the first round of matches, the names of the three of them will appear on the scorer list."

Beep –

Tottenham's Harry Kane kicked off first, and the game officially began!
