Chapter 1070 Conte's statement

The International Champions Cup can only be regarded as a pre-season training at best. Mourinho saw what he wanted to see, but the biggest gain must be that the problem between Lukaku and Martial seems to be resolved.

Back in Manchester, the team started the final preparations before the season. This is a real joint training for all members-with the addition of newcomer Depay.

Depay was so excited that when he saw Zhou Tiancheng for the first time, the Dutch winger, who had been firmly in the main position in Eindhoven as early as 17 years old, took out his mobile phone to find Zhou Tiancheng, and proposed a Very strange request: group photo.

This scene surprised the teammates present, including Matic, who had already convinced Zhou Tiancheng, watched with interest. Is this a little fan of Zhou?

Zhou Tiancheng was also a little surprised. Matic respected him a lot and he could understand that it was played face to face. But what does this newcomer Depay mean?He remembered that the last time he played against Lyon was several years ago, right?
Could it be that now I have reached the point where I have fans all over the world?

"Don't worry, Grizzlies, we have time later, hehe, we are a big family, trust me, you will have a good time working with everyone."

A trace of doubt flashed in Depay's eyes: "Zhou, what do you call me? Grizzly?"

Zhou Tiancheng smiled: "Your name is Memphis Depay, I remember it well, right?"

Depay nodded, but he still couldn't think of any connection.

"That's right, don't you know there is an NBA team called the Memphis Grizzlies? Memphis Grizzlies, exactly the same name as you, plus your body, well, height is an issue, but for you it's just It's a small problem, do you have any comments?"

This nickname matches Depay's appearance very well. Although his height is only 1.7 meters [-], which is far from the concept of "grizzly" in the eyes of normal people, except for his lack of height, Depay is almost perfect in other aspects.Wearing a training suit on the field can't stop the slightly bulging muscles. When changing jerseys in the locker room, you can see the clear four-pack abdominal muscles that are completely out of proportion to his short stature, and what's more terrifying is the wrist As thick as thighs.

Zhou Tiancheng sized him up and compared him with his brother Chen Pengfei in Naples. It seemed that there was no comparison. Chen Pengfei was considered excellent to be the main player in Naples, but he could see the gap between the two just by looking at his muscles.

A truly powerful winger does not rely solely on speed. In modern football, only the use of technology under high-intensity physical confrontation can show true strength.Chen Pengfei's speed is fast enough, but the problem can be seen in the World Cup semi-final match against the German team. Facing the German team's targeted side space compression, it is difficult for Chen Pengfei's physical fitness to open a gap on the side.That defeat was not only the reason why Zhou Tiancheng was absent on the spot.

Depay was a little excited. Before he was about to leave Lyon, he knew about his new club, especially Zhou Tiancheng, the right back Raphael from Manchester United. From this population, he knew that Zhou Tiancheng was definitely able to be present. A teammate who is reassuring and can play in the locker room is given a nickname when he first arrives. He naturally accepts it happily. This is Zhou Tiancheng's true acceptance of him on behalf of Manchester United.

Mourinho doesn't have much time left. What he wants to see is Depay's quick integration. This is the person he uses to replace Di Maria's role. Naturally, he must have plug-and-play attributes.

The Community Shield is close at hand. As the last warm-up opportunity five days before the start of the season, Mourinho knows very well that this game will be watched by many people.

This is the first official appearance for him to lead Manchester United in England, and the opponent is Chelsea, who has just coached. Mourinho can figure out what the English media want with his thumb.

Winning, that is a must, is only a basic requirement, and they also need to see the oppressive situation.

But the opponent is Chelsea. Although the lineup has not changed drastically, Mourinho still understands most of the people he coached last season, but he knows that there are many players in the team who can be versatile. God knows what different coaches will be. How to use him.

What's more, his successor also has a great background. Former Juventus and Italian national team coach Antonio Conte is one of the outstanding representatives of Italian "academic" coaches. In Italian football, "academic" is definitely not just talking on paper. The derogatory meaning of being inflexible and inflexible, on the contrary, it is definitely a commendatory term, which means that the use of tactics is as precise and flawless as mathematical logic calculations.

Moreover, Conte's style is quite different from that of Mazzarri and Zaccheroni. He does not focus too much on defense. During his coaching of the Italian national team, he even tried extreme offenses such as 4-2-4.

However, Mata returned to his old club after Mourinho's arrival. Although the Spanish midfielder's style of play is soft, his creativity and ability to launch offense in the midfield are recognized by all the English media, and he can become Zhou Tiancheng's side. The most important helper, ability does not need any doubt.

This is also Conte's first game after taking office. He took Mata on the debut and put on the Chelsea blue shirt again. Unsurprisingly, everyone wanted to know what he was thinking.

A fact that everyone knows well-why does Mata, a good horse, want to turn back?If it weren't for Mourinho, I'm afraid Mata would not have left.

However, Mata did not want to talk about this issue: "Jose Mourinho is a very special person, my conflict with him? That is the past tense, everyone has the right to choose for their career. When my condition allows, I want to stand in the center of Stamford Bridge and enjoy football for a few years. Of course, I have almost forgotten what it is like to play against Zhou."

"So Juan, do you hope to get back in this game?" The Manchester United reporter's question was ambiguous, but he looked at Mata with a very professional smile on his face, and what he really wanted to ask in his heart was: Want to get back that feeling of being abused?
Mata smiled and continued: "Chelsea is a very ambitious club, and no opponent can stop us from accomplishing our great goals."

Conte nodded slightly at the side and echoed: "Juan is such a player, and I came here to complete Mr. Jose Mourinho's regrets. Of course, for this goal, we will let him continue to regret. "

Conte has directly expressed his ambition, and the Manchester media just smiled lightly, not feeling provoked, but smiled lightly.

It would be very much in the style of the Russian behind Chelsea, who has been chasing more titles since arriving with the banknotes.but……

There is nothing wrong with ambition, but if you make such a statement, don't you consider whether it can be done?
