The day after the Bournemouth game, Jose Mourinho began to analyse the problems in the previous game for his players, as is customary.

'Against Bournemouth, even though we won, it still showed a lot of problems. If it weren't for Shen Peng, we might have had some difficulty even equalizing yesterday. ”

Most of the players didn't react much when they heard this, and Shen Peng's performance yesterday really deserved this kind of praise.

However, this kind of praise caused Martial's dissatisfaction, of course, he didn't show it explicitly, just the disdain in his eyes, anyone who noticed it, could see it.

"After the analysis of our coaching staff, the biggest problem in yesterday's game was the lack of scoring ability in the face of the opponent's dense defense."

'The tactics of the opponent in this game were very good, after the lead, they immediately tightened the defense, and although we won in the end, at least for the first 70 minutes, they did it perfectly, we didn't have a chance.

'Their defence is based on the aggressive fighting and the fighting spirit of the players who are one point ahead, and that one point ahead is their belief that if they hold on to that point, they will get three league points at home.

"The turning point of the game was Shen Peng's breakthrough when the second half was almost halfway through."

"In the previous 70 minutes, he used up the opponent's stamina through his constant running, so that the defenders could not keep up with his rhythm, so his breakthrough caused the opponent's defense to mess up, and finally Rooney was able to shoot the ball into the goal."

"This goal completely shattered the opponent's belief and made their persistence in the first few dozen minutes meaningless, so we were able to score four more goals in a row."

"Just imagine, if we didn't have Shen Peng's goal in this game, would there be these goals later? Obviously, no, even if that goal is ten minutes late, the opponent will hold on until the end of the game, and it is likely that it will only end up being a 1-1 draw. ”

'Our other opponents will definitely see the problem, such as Southampton, our next opponent, at our home stadium, they will definitely defend to the end, and they will make some tactical targets based on this game, and they will even shrink their defence at the beginning of the game.

"So once we get into a stalemate, it's likely that we'll be held to a draw by our opponents."

"In order to avoid this, we will focus on training to break down the dense defense in the next few days."

Then, after the players warmed up, they began to train in an orderly manner.

Jose Mourinho watched his players train and fell into deep thought.

At present, the basic prototype of his team is complete, but there is still one role missing, that is, the midfield commander.

Now this position in the team is Rooney, but although Rooney is only thirty-one years old now, he is already a little unable to run, which may not be anything when facing a weak team, but once facing a strong team, this weakness will be infinitely magnified and used by the opponent.

Originally, this season's first target was Juventus midfielder Paulo? Pogba's was later changed to Shen Peng, compared to Pogba, the current Manchester United needs a player like Shen Peng more.

However, this has led to too much spending for the club, which is limited by UEFA's Financial Fair Play Act, although the club has tried to deal with it as much as possible, for example, signing Shen Peng on a staggering eight years of contract, so that the average share is only more than 30 million euros per year; Submit a "Plan on How to Achieve Breakeven Year by Year" in accordance with the adjustments of the Fiscal Fair Play Act of 2015; Adjust the salary structure, sell some players, etc. But to sign Pogba, it's not enough.

So, the only way now is to continue to sell some players.

The first thing he thought about was Anthony Martial.

Originally, at the beginning of the season, he came with the idea of Martial playing Shen Peng as a substitute, but now Martial is obviously a little dissatisfied, plus his data last season was also good, making 31 appearances and scoring 11 goals, so many teams are interested in him, but he can buy a good price.

And during this period of training, Rashford performed well, so when Shen Peng rotated, he could let Rashford play.

In fact, Shen Peng's condition is also very good, he rarely missed games in the previous seasons, and he has not had any injuries, so keeping Martial has no chance to play, and it is not good for this young talented player.

In addition to Anthony Martial, there are a few players who are still in the squad but have no place to be cleaned, such as ...... Schweinsteiger, even if he may not sell for a good price, can improve the club's salary structure and give Pogba more room to sign.

Thinking of this, he made a decision.

At this moment, there was an exclamation on the field, and Mourinho also happened to capture the scene that happened, and his eyes lit up: "Yes, there is still this method to break the dense defense!" ”

……

On August 17, three days after the first round of the Premier League, Manchester United officially announced another bombshell news: the club has signed midfielder Paulo from Juventus? Pogba, transfer fee of 80 million euros.

As soon as this news was announced, it immediately caused an uproar.

Pogba, who won the 2013 European Golden Boy Award, scored eight goals in 35 appearances for Juventus last season, which may not be impressive just by looking at the statistics, but he is not a striker, but a midfielder, and fans who have watched him know his performance, 80 million euros...... Some are cheaper.

"How could Juventus let him go?"

"Shen Peng was worth 270 million euros before, and even if Pogba is worse than Shen Peng, he can sell it for at least 120 million euros!"

This is a question on most people's minds.

However, at Manchester United's press conference, the reason was finally known.

"Shen Peng is the most talented player I've ever met, and it's an honor for me to play with him."

"I've wanted to play with Shen Peng for a long time and I'm looking forward to joining Manchester United."

"At the beginning of last season I couldn't go to Dortmund for some reasons, but this season I took my chances.

Pogba's original words made it clear that there was a subjective element of the player in this transfer.

As the case is, Pogba, as the hero of Juventus' fourth consecutive league title, the club did not embarrass him, and finally agreed to Manchester United's offer of 80 million euros.

When Shen Peng learned of Pogba's statement at the press conference, his face immediately became a little exciting, but he didn't expect that he also played a role in this transfer, and it was revealed that the club also saved a lot of money.

Shen Peng thought a little shamelessly, can the money saved by the club be shared with himself?
