Chinese fans are very talented fans, and the famous "Premier League Big Four Can't Be Provoked" comes from the genius creativity of Chinese fans.

Manchester United in stoppage time, Chelsea at home, Arsenal fighting for the fourth and Sunderland in relegation, these four teams are the four Premier League teams that are rumored in China and cannot be provoked.

Of the four, only the "Black Cats" Sunderland are the weakest team, and since being promoted to the Premier League in 2006, the red and white striped team, nicknamed the "Black Cats", has been below five points ahead of the relegation team for six seasons. Several times they were successful in the last two rounds of thrilling relegation, and they really deserved to be relegation maniacs.

Cats have nine lives, and they really can't be provoked.

However, the title of this relegation maniac, among the original four unprovoked, there is no Sunderland, and the title was given to Wigan at the beginning. Unfortunately, three years ago, Wigan, who had just won the first major championship in the team's history and defeated the mighty Manchester City in the FA Cup final, was beaten from heaven to hell by Arsenal 1-4 in the league at the Emirates Stadium, and was finally relegated, not only the title of relegation maniac was taken away by Sunderland, but also became the first team in the history of English football to be relegated from the top league after winning the FA Cup that season.

However, after nine consecutive seasons of relegation, the cat's nine lives have run out, can Sunderland be so lucky next season?

Next year's May is still early, and on the afternoon of May 27 this year, in the breeze and light rain, Sunderland's home stadium, the Stadium of Light, will welcome the warm-up matches of the England national team and the Australian national team.

Since one is in Europe and the other is in Oceania, two teams with deep ties have only met twice in history, the most recent of which was 13 years ago.

Two encounters, one win and one loss. In 1991, Australia lost 1-0 at home to England, and in 2003, England suffered a 3-1 defeat to the visiting Australian Kangaroos. It was Francis Jeffers who scored for England at the time, who played for the Gunners, and he is the brother of current national team captain Wayne Rooney.

However, this senior brother is not as good as his junior brother, and in that national team friendly match, he played with Rooney. He scored, Rooney didn't, and at first glance he was better than Rooney.

However, due to injuries and a lack of playing opportunities, Jeffers gradually disappeared from the public eye.

Although the weather was not very good, the enthusiasm of the fans was still high as they were able to see the super dry performance again. And the Stadium of Light, which has more than 40,000 people, is almost full.

Roy Hodgson, in the dugout, looked up at the sky. He said to Gary Neville, an assistant coach next to him: "The weather is not very good today, so I told them to take care of their bodies when they play football and not get hurt." ”

On the commentary stand at the Stadium of Light, Martin Taylor, dressed in an overcoat, read the starting line-ups of the two upcoming teams.

England lined up in a 343 formation:

Goalkeeper: No. 1 Joe Hart

Defenders: No. 20 Chris Smalling, No. 6 John Stones, No. 5 Gary Cahill

Midfielders: No. 2 Kyle Walker, No. 4 Eric Deere, No. 19 Wayne Rooney, No. 11 Deli Alli, No. 3 Danny Rose

Forwards: No. 26 Marcus Rashford, No. 9 Qiansheng, No. 10 Harry Kane

The Australian team is in a 4312 formation:

Goalkeeper: No. 1 Matthew Lane

Defenders: No. 2 Josh Resdon, No. 5 Alex Wilkinson, No. 6 Bailly Wright, No. 3 Aziz Bijic

Midfielders: No. 8 Mark Miligan, No. 4 captain Meyer Jedinak, No. 10 Tom Rokic, No. 7 Massimo Longo

Forwards: No. 9 Robbie Cruise, No. 11 Tommy Juric

"Roy's three-at-back tactics are very risky, what if one of the three centre-backs is injured?" Alan Shearer said with a frown.

'Eric can play in midfield or switch to a back four. Gary Lineker knows it.

"The strikers of this national team are very strong, whether it is Harry, Jamie, or Qian. or Wayne, Daniel, and Marcus, all of whom are very strong. But. Will 6 strikers be too many? Shearer said.

'Wayne is likely to play in midfield more often. Lineker said: "The position of Gan in the national team is very flexible, not limited to the forward line, so, to be exact, five and a half strikers. ”

Taylor turned around and smiled, "Remember the article that Pete wrote in the Daily Mail before, right?" ”

Shearer and Lineker looked at each other and smiled. Marcus Rashford and Qiansheng are destined to be lifelong rivals. But for now, Dry is ahead of Rashford by too much, both in terms of stats and performance consistency.

"In this game, Jack didn't play. Wayne is on the court, hehe, see if he'll pass the ball more to Marcus or give the ball to the dry. Lineker laughed.

"This is Marcus' debut for the national team, and Wayne will definitely take care of his little brother more." Shearer said with some concern. He was afraid that in order to let Rashford score, Rooney would not pass the ball to Qiansheng and affect the harmony of the team.

"Let's see, Roy shouldn't let Wayne mess around." Taylor looked at the pitch below, and the players from both sides entered the stadium under the leadership of the captain.

Singing the national anthem, shaking hands, picking sides, Australia got the right to kick off, England chose the position against the wind, after all, the second half was easy to play.

Rashford's heart was excited and frightened, excited to finally make his coveted national team debut, and to his horror, the biggest opponent on the right hand side who had an indifferent face but made him feel great pressure, Qiansheng.

Since his rise in the Premier League, he has scored goals every game, his incredible number of goals and scoring efficiency, especially since he does not have the inconsistent form that young players often have. In almost every game of Qiansheng, he scored at least three goals.

And Rashford, who has had a goal drought in five games, and a few games without scoring, although he has assisted the team to win, but no matter which aspect, Qiansheng, who is three years younger than him, suppresses him in all aspects.

In fact, without Qiansheng, the hottest local star in the Premier League this season is Rashford, but in front of Qiansheng's Premier League Golden Boot, the Red Devils can only be ashamed of themselves. The Daily Mail's Pete Jensen article became a joke in the eyes of fans: Rashford is a lifelong rival.

Rooney frowned and looked at the Red Devils who trembled slightly, this good talent who was originally smooth sailing and protected by the Red Devils coach, but was hit by Arsenal's No. 9, Louis van Gaal, who single-handedly promoted him to the first team and became famous, said to Rooney after class: "Marcus is like a flower in a greenhouse, too much protection." If he hadn't been allowed to go through the brutal storm sooner, Wayne, Manchester United would have spent a lot of money to buy the striker. ”

Clenching his hands hard, Rooney muttered, "Sorry, boss, this game is the most important thing for Marcus, forgive me for making a statement." (To be continued.) )
