Returning to Manchester from Scotland, Linson did not immediately announce that the team was on holiday, but organized the team to watch a game together in the conference room at the training base.

Community Shield.

The Community Shield of the Premier League is actually the Super Cup of several other major leagues, which is a dessert before the opening of the league dinner, far from quenching hunger, but it can affect appetite, the appetite will be better, and those who have not eaten will feel more hungry, this season's Community Shield is between last year's league champion Manchester United and FA Cup winner Chelsea, which is also the first contest between the two coaches Ferguson and Carlo Ancelotti in the Premier League.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. Lin Sen deliberately let the whole team watch this game together, of course, not to let everyone sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight to have a good time, because the two tigers on the TV will be the two strongest opponents of Manchester City this season, more than Arsenal, but also more than Liverpool, before watching the game, Lin Sen deliberately asked Tang Hua, who came back, to send a "Instructions for Watching the Ball" to all the players, on it, the key points of each player to watch the game were noted......

It's not just the players who have to know about watching the game, as the head coach Lin Sen himself is no exception, after he took office in Malaga last year, he watched the game video and wanted to vomit, and the situation has improved this year, but he still has to watch the video that should be watched.

How Ferguson, who lost Ronaldo, will make up for the vacancy of the Portuguese, this is a big attraction, nominally Valencia will directly and seamlessly connect with Ronaldo's position, but obviously Ecuador still has a lot of gaps in ability and the former Mr. Golden Ball, these gaps, in the case of Manchester United's overall card strength has not been improved, can only rely on Ferguson to make up, just like a restaurant loses its signature dish, you still want to attract so many customers, the chef is the key.

Another big thing to see is how Carlo Ancelotti has taken Chelsea, who almost reached the Champions League final last year, one step further. Ancelotti, who had just taken up his post and was interviewed, said only two general concepts. He said he would bring experience and personality to Chelsea, but he talked most about tactics. The Italian has always had an unusual arrogance on a tactical level, and even Carlo Ancelotti is not modest in this regard, pointing to the lack of tactics in the Premier League, which is clearly what he has brought to Chelsea.

Ferguson faced Carlo Ancelotti, the two had met twice before on the European stage, once in the 0405 season and once in the 0607 season, both of which were won by Carlo Ancelotti, and the Italians won three of the four games. And although no one knows whether Ferguson is convinced by these two collisions, at least on the surface, the old man is convinced.

The game at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium saw the more familiar United enter the game early after the start of the first half, but Chelsea were quick to adjust and almost opened the scoring in the fifth minute when Patrice Evra's clearance hit the woodwork, just four minutes later. Nani pry open the door of Cech with a kick and then returned to parity in the first half. In the second half, Carlo Ancelotti, who was behind, took the lead in making changes, and Bosingwa replaced Ivanovic. In the 52nd minute, Mourinho levelled Chelsea with Carvalho, who had not been hoeed all summer long, and after that, both sides scored a controversial goal. One foul first, one offside.

The penalty shoot-out, like the comparison of the strength of the goalkeepers on both sides, Cech refused two penalties. Ben Foster couldn't do anything about it.

Players look at players, coaches look at coaches. Linson has no memory of this game, that is, he doesn't know whether it was a final win, what the score was, whether history has changed, but as a bystander, the penalty shoot-out must have had a certain amount of chance, but considering that Ancelotti is only a newcomer, it is clear that this time it is the Italians who have taken the top.

The balance of the game proved that the two managers were impeccable in the pre-match preparation, and in terms of on-the-spot command, Ancelotti took the lead because his team was behind, the Italian's move was immediate, Nani who scored for Manchester United in the first half was then frozen, and Chelsea equalized as desired, Ferguson reacted unhappily, he immediately replaced the goal-scorer Nani with Valencia, in this regard, Ancelotti's response was to replace the more balanced attack and defense of Ballack to replace the stronger defense than the attack Mikel, further control the midfield, And this can be said to be the turning point of the game. The Community Shield can be replaced by up to six people, and the two managers can do whatever they want, and after being overtaken by Chelsea in the game, Ferguson even changed four people in one go, but no matter how the personnel changes, the tactical philosophy of the two managers is still very clear, Ancelotti emphasizes control, while Ferguson emphasizes efficiency.

After watching the game, there is no need for Lin Sen to deliberately arrange the next communication, they are all professional players, and some things only need to start, and the next things will fall into place.

Linson announced a day off tomorrow and then left Robben behind after the team disbanded.

Like David Silva, this is not the first time Linson and Robben have met. Robben's style of play is easy to misunderstand that this is a person who is not easy to get along with, but in fact, Robben in life is very low-key, and what surprised Linson was that when he returned to Carrington Stadium from Scotland on his first day, he saw that Robben and Adriano were already talking and laughing together. In Linson's opinion, it will be a great friendship, because in Robben there is something Adriano lacks the most, and that is self-confidence.

And Robben, who shines all over his body, is also the second real "superstar" of Manchester City in the eyes of Lin Sen. Others, such as Bale and David Luiz, are far from superstar status at the moment. Lin Sen and Robben did not talk for a long time, after welcoming Robben in his personal name, Lin Sen only asked Robben how he felt about his body, in this regard, Robben was very frank, he said that his physical condition was not the best, but there was no problem with playing, and the choice was in Lin Sen's hands.

After talking with Robben, Linson already has a rough list of starters against Blackburn Rovers in a week, and of course, the final decision still needs to look at the next week's training.

The last piece of the puzzle came suddenly, with some surprises.

The day before, Lin Sen made a special trip to chat with the Bend brothers for a long time, in addition to encouraging the two brothers to study hard every day, he put forward his own requirements for them. The club has found a loan home for the Bend brothers, and Birmingham, which has a Chinese owner, has become the next stop for the Bend brothers together, and the two brothers have gone on loan together, which is what Linsen demanded. The purpose is naturally to cultivate the tacit understanding of the Bend brothers to the greatest extent, although the two may not play at the same time, they can train at the same time, which is enough. Birmingham City had wanted to sign Hart on loan, but Hart had been persuaded by Linson to stay as the second goalkeeper, or rather, cup goalkeeper.

And today, the Dutch club Ajax suddenly announced on its official website that everyone did not expect that Ajax agreed to Manchester City's offer for Uruguayan striker Suarez, approving personal contact and negotiations between Manchester City and Suarez. What is the specific offer? No one knows yet.

Add to that the Bender brothers and Falcao on loan, although City have brought in enough players to form a new squad this season. But with Linson never saying anything like "our transfer window is closed", the British media has been speculating almost every day about City's next target, and Linson's old club in Malaga has become the favourite, but most of the thunder is light.

It's just that as the Premier League curtain is about to be opened and the warm-up game is over, Manchester City, which seems to have a complete lineup, seems to have no intention of bringing in reinforcements.

I have to say. Marwood's raid was carried out extremely perfectly, and Lin Sen couldn't help but applaud Marwood.

Not only because Marwood did not leak during this transfer operation, and almost no one got the news in advance before the announcement on Ajax's official website, but also because Marwood helped Lin Sen solve a headache in this transfer. That's the nail household: if.

Fifteen million plus Brazilian striker Ruo.

This is the offer made by Marwood that was eventually accepted by Ajax, and the Brazilian striker is valued at 10 million because the total value of the offer is 25 million.

For Ajax, there have been rumours about Suarez's transfer for the last two seasons. But it has always stayed in the scandal stage, not that Ajax is unwilling to sell, after all, they also know that Suarez will leave sooner or later. But there is really no tempting offer, Manchester City's offer is the most sincere, the price of fifteen million is enough for Ajax to consider carefully, not to mention a if.

You know, although the Brazilian has become a chicken rib in the eyes of Manchester City, but in a European second-tier league like Ajax, he is still a star who can kill all sides, and the reason why Manchester City introduced Ruo in the first place is not precisely because of Ruo's excellent performance in the Russian league, of course, the most important thing is that he is only twenty-two years old! Ajax, who is good at nurturing young people, has every chance to restore his value and let him re-enter the eyes of European giants.

And if I, with the pace of the new season of the Premier League, he who has not been Everton before, no matter how stubborn he is, he knows that his insistence is meaningless, and obviously he is not in Linsen's new season plan, in this case, the person who continues to "rely" in Manchester City can only be himself, although Ajax is not a giant, but it is one of the few "springboards" in the entire European football, after the agent won a season's salary from Manchester City for him as compensation, He finally nodded to Amsterdam as well.

As for Suarez, what reason does he have to reject Manchester City?!

On August 14, the day before the opening match of the Premier League, Suarez, who played for the Uruguayan national team two years ago, was approved for his labor certification, and Manchester City officially announced the signing of the Uruguayan striker on its official website, completing the final piece of the puzzle for Manchester City in the new season.
