Grass roots glory

Chapter 910

In the official starting list given before the game, Manchester United still formed a 3-4-3 formation. Sure enough, the pre-season training still had an effect. The starting lineup for this game is the main lineup determined by Van Gaal in the first two games.

Facing a relegation team like Swansea, with Manchester United's strength on paper, there is no need to make too many targeted arrangements.

Van Gaal's special emphasis is on offense.

"The new season has really started. Listen, the only thing I ask of you is to show our attitude with offense as you have shown before! Zhou, Juan, I want to see your offense and defense. effect."

Van Gaal made such a request to Zhou Tiancheng and Juan Mata in particular.

In fact, it is not too much. From Van Gaal's standpoint, it is completely understandable that the first game of the new season really needs to show momentum.Especially for Manchester United, whose performance last season was almost disastrous.

Especially against such a relegation team, if you can't win...even if the win is not beautiful enough, all the highlights of the previous International Champions Cup may be wiped out, at least in the eyes of fans and the media, there will be doubts about Van Gaal immediately ——After spending so much money, is it still not on the table?Weak as soon as you reach the league?

Therefore, Van Gaal had very high requirements for this first game. His requirement for offense was to run continuously and fast-paced. This made many veterans bite their lips tightly, but Zhou Tiancheng was fine and simply nodded.

"No problem, sir."

"Zhou, in the Premier League, you have to get used to calling me boss in the future." Van Gaal frowned slightly and confessed.

Zhou Tiancheng nodded with a smile, but did not change his words immediately. Although some features of the Premier League are well known around the world, such as the labor certification system, such as the managerial head coach, Zhou Tiancheng still couldn't name it.

He looked at Van Gaal, and even thought in his heart: With this temper, if he changed his words, he would not become a tyrant in the future?To use a catchphrase of my dad when I was a child - don't raise your tail to the sky?

Officials from the Football Association's competition department walked into the locker room, checked the labor certificates of each player issued by them, and indicated that all players can play.

Zhou Tiancheng stood up, put on Rooney and Falcao on the one hand, and smiled: "Little Fatty, what I tell you will always be valid."

Rooney's expression changed subtly, and he nodded slowly. In such an extremely open environment in England, why do you always feel awkward when you say such things in such a posture?

Dude, I'm afraid you don't know what it means here?

Falcao obviously understood and snickered on the other side, but before he could enjoy himself, Zhou Tiancheng slapped him hard on the shoulder: "Lamedal, stop complaining. Be honest and stay here. Wait until you have a chance to play , you will know that I never talk empty words."

This scene in the locker room is very abnormal. The captain's armband is worn on Rooney's arm. Van Gaal did not clearly instruct the whole team to revolve around Zhou Tiancheng like Klopp did in training.In other words, Zhou Tiancheng at Manchester United does not have any power to direct his teammates, but whether it is a veteran or a new player, they are willing to listen to him and accept his words.

Zhou Tiancheng's current appeal is not comparable to that of ordinary people, and many teammates have fought against each other before and suffered losses.In his heart, he knew Zhou Tiancheng's strength.From the moment Zhou Tiancheng joined, as long as there was no competition for positions, many people welcomed Zhou Tiancheng.

Both inside and outside public opinion are ready for his debut at Manchester United, and he felt it from the moment he stepped onto the Theater of Dreams.

Facing the North Stand at the exit of the player channel, at the moment when players from both sides lined up, a wave of red surged, and eye-catching slogans could be seen in the crowd.

Zhou, welcome to Dream Theater!
This is a real welcome ceremony, which is different from the one arranged by the club. It is more or less like an official show. It is true that it belongs to the fans.

In fact, there is another point, which is not reflected in the red-eyed and crowded Old Trafford Stadium-at least more than 18% of the fans are wearing Zhou Tiancheng's No. [-] jersey.

He didn't play for 1 minute at home, which is the embodiment of Zhou Tiancheng's star effect.

At the commentary booth, the media cameras were ready.

For Chinese fans, the only change in the new season is that if they want to watch Zhou Tiancheng, they have to learn to use computers to follow new media. Old fans over the age of 40 must learn to accept this new way of watching football.

The broadcast rights of the Premier League in the new season in mainland China were exclusively bought out by the new online media platform PP Sports. The new online media broadcast is characterized by a greater degree of freedom.

I bid farewell to those veteran celebrities on CCTV, but the old fans of the Premier League are looking forward to it even more.

As they expected, before the game started, they heard a familiar voice.

The No. 1 domestic Premier League commentator, former ESPN Singapore Radio Premier League talker Zhan Jun, excited the old Premier League fans for many years with his first sentence.Everyone swiped the screen in the barrage comment area.

"Wow, it's really Zhan Jun!"

"Thumbs up Brother Jun!"

"There is Brother Jun, and I am the King of the Week. Don't say anything. From now on, the Premier League will chase every round."

"Look at how Brother Jun plays Zhou Qiuqiu, it must be more fresh and refined than CCTV!"

Many Premier League fans only recognize Zhan Jun for the Premier League commentary.

There is a saying among football commentators with unique characteristics in domestic evaluation: People who can describe football as a stand-up comic.

Zhan Jun does not belong to this stream, but after reading his commentary, he can probably give such an evaluation: a person who can speak football in a rap style.

As long as Zhan Jun is in the mood for a focus battle that has attracted much attention from the outside world, it can be done.

No, Zhou Tiancheng made his debut in the Premier League. With the warm cheers on the scene, Zhan Jun explained with a smile: "Hi everyone, welcome to 2014-15, the first round of the new Premier League season, Manchester United's first match at home. Show! This game has attracted much attention and has been waiting for a long time! New coach, new lineup. From now on, the only expectation of Manchester United fans is to return to the top at the end of the season. This goal will test Van Gaal, how to grasp the key and make good use of the core In the post-Ferguson era, the new leader of the Red Devils should of course be him—”

The camera focused on Zhou Tiancheng, and Zhan Jun took advantage of the situation to express another wave of emotions: "Zhou Tiancheng! Listen to the atmosphere on the scene, it really came out after a long time! When Zhou Tiancheng came to Manchester United, everything that followed was worth looking forward to. Never In Manchester, which lacks stories, the Chinese players are really destined to be here. From blue to red, if the color is changed, the legendary ink color will definitely add two points. Get ready, the game, start now!"

Coupled with Zhan Jun's ups and downs, it is extremely able to mobilize the fans' sense of substitution.

It couldn't be better to listen to a uniquely styled commentary opening speech before the game starts.

Many of Zhan Jun's words are due to his unique commentary style, but there is one point of concern that everyone pays attention to very clearly.

After all the calls came out.

With the start of the new Premier League season, whether Zhou Tiancheng suits Manchester United's tactics, the previous warm-up matches can be ignored, and now we will start from scratch.

The Premier League, is very different.
