Mourinho doesn't talk much, but he's incitative.

Youngsters like Marcus Rashford are already clenching their fists in excitement.

Even the team's veterans are excited about Mourinho's passion.

Since Sir Alex Ferguson, United have not had such a boldness.

Moyes' aura is too weak, after all, he has never coached a giant, and he still lacks experience.

Van Gaal is too stubborn, and many of his tactical ideas are a bit outdated, which is a bit difficult to eat in the current Premier League and Europe.

And Mourinho is still the iron-blooded leader.

As long as the team is cohesive and cohesive, he doesn't care about the talent of the players and anything like that.

Unity, hard work, tenacity, and then strong tactical execution, Mourinho is confident to beat everything!

At the moment, looking at the players in front of him, Mourinho is in a good mood.

Today was the first day of training and Mourinho didn't say much to boost morale.

Everything, come in training and in competitions.

However, Mourinho has one more thing to announce before the start of official training.

"The current captains and vice-captains of the team are Wayne Rooney and Carrick.

"I'm very happy with their performance.

"I hope you continue to work hard and lead Manchester United to victory.

"And the third captain, who has been vacant, I officially appointed it today.

"The third captain of the team is - xia!"

When Mourinho said this, even the assistant coach Perrin next to him was a little surprised.

He decided this matter directly without consulting anyone.

The players didn't expect it either.

Because in the squad, players such as David De Gea, Ander Herrera and Valencia are eligible to wear the captain's armband, regardless of seniority or ability.

Even Ibrahimovic, who has just joined the team, has his own captain's aura.

However, Mourinho appointed the third captain to Xia Xing.

And Xia Xing was also a little stunned.

But soon, he adjusted his mentality.

Mourinho nodded at him and motioned for him to come forward.

Xia Xing came to Mourinho's side and turned to face everyone.

"Brothers, guys,

"To be honest, I didn't expect to be the third captain of the team.

"The coach's arrangement put me under a lot of pressure.

"Still, I'm up for the challenge!

"The title of captain is not an arrogant title, but an example of hard work.

"In the days to come, I will definitely lead by example and work harder with a more diligent attitude.

"Live up to the trust that the coach has placed in me and live up to everyone's expectations of me!

"Thank you!"

Xia Xing's words are not leaky, as the former Leicester City third captain, although he is young, he has a lot of experience in leading the team.

And he is now also the boss of a sports company with a market value of hundreds of millions of euros, and his management ability and aura have also been greatly improved.

Jose Mourinho nodded in satisfaction, and the players immediately applauded.

Rooney and Carrick, the captains and vice-captains at the front of the team, applauded vigorously, and Ibrahimovic next to him also clapped and nodded.

The rest of the players were also mostly convinced.

A 21-year-old talent, a playmaker who has led Leicester City to a five-time title, deserves to be the third captain of Manchester United!

No problem!

Still, there were people in the crowd who were lost.

Pogba, for example.

Returning from Juventus this time, Pogba has been holding back his strength.

He even wanted to see Ferguson.

Back then, you kicked me out, thinking that my contract was demanding, and you didn't renew my contract.

And now?

Why don't you have to bring me back?

When the time comes, I will take Manchester United to win the championship, and I will slap you in the face!

Let everyone see who is the real man of Manchester United!

But now, Xia Xing has completely stolen his limelight.

Not only was he more popular in the team, but he also got the position of third captain.

This upsets Pogba.

He clapped his hands symbolically, and it was considered a round of applause.

He put his hand down, but clenched his fist.

When I shine next season, you'll know who's the best talent at Manchester United!

The first time he met the players, Mourinho was crisp and sharp, not muddy.

Next, it's time for training.

The week is mainly about physical recovery.

For players who have just returned from vacation, it's important to control their weight, gain muscle and lose fat right now.

Many players with poor self-control have even gained about ten pounds this summer compared with the weight of normal athletes.

This is something that Mourinho will never allow.

The hard work began.

For some players, though, it's not a big problem.

For example, hard-working players such as Wayne Rooney, Carrick, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, etc., they have already started to adjust their bodies and stay fit at home, as long as they improve their game status during this time.

But even they can't compare to the team's new third captain.

In the first training session, Xia Xing stood out!

Whether it's speed training, strength training, or flexibility training, Xia Xing is the leader!

Assistant coach Perrin clapped his hands!

At this point, it's no problem to play in the Champions League final now!

And Mourinho was delighted, but also a little surprised.

How did Xia grow a lot taller?

And also got stronger?

I'm 22 years old, and my body is still growing, which is amazing!

After a week of recovery training, many players felt very tired, but Xia Xing didn't care.

He is still the first to come every day, and he has to practice on his own after training.

For this resilience, no one admires.

This third captain candidate is qualified!

Pogba, however, was not convinced.

Football is not rugby, and although it is important to be physically strong, it is more important to be technical.

When it comes to the competition, you'll see who's the best talent at the top!

A week later, I did.

But it's not Xia Xing, it's Pogba.

A week later, after training with the ball, Mourinho began to experiment with different combinations of formations and play intra-squad matches.

45 minutes of a game, mainly to train the cooperation between the players.

In the confrontation link, Xia Xing was even more out of the limelight!

Cooperate with the new team-mates, and try to stay as far back as possible, in the left wing-back position.

When it comes to attack, he defends with all his might.

After a few rounds of matches, Manchester United's attackers have learned Xia Xing's defensive ability.

Whether it is the young Rashford and Anthony Martial, or the veterans Rooney and Ibrahimovic, they all feel the defensive pressure of Xia Xing.

Xia Xing's marking ability is average, so he rarely defends one person all the time.

But with his excellent running ability, there is no position in the whole backfield that he can't cover.

Coupled with the top-notch speed and explosiveness, super body hardness and impact, any offensive player is worried when he sees him.

Even Rooney was amazed: "Xia, when we played in the league last season, you weren't that strong!" ”

Rashford has become Xia Xing's little fan brother: "360 degrees without dead ends super invincible back!" It's just as catch-up with Keane's predecessors back then! ”

And this is just a reflection of Xia Xing's defensive ability......
