Chapter 1019 Impressive Achievements
On April 4, the 16th round of the Premier League kicked off.

Manchester United, who sits at home, ushered in Aston Villa, the deputy squad leader. One has dropped Manchester City by 8 points, and the other has been relegated early. There is no suspense about the outcome of this game.

Sun Wu made substantial rotation adjustments, and all players suspended in the Champions League returned. Herrera, Alderweireld, Van Dijk, Lingard, and Bernardo Silva all started.

Although Sun Wu himself sat on the bench throughout the game, Manchester United won Aston Villa calmly.

Within half an hour of the first half, Bernardo Silva and Lingard scored a goal each, and Griezmann scored a hat-trick with a head kick within 15 minutes of the second half.

The team was leading 5-0, and Sun Wu, who was sitting on the coach's bench, frowned and asked Rolf beside him in a low voice from time to time, because Chelsea was playing against Manchester City at Stamford Bridge.

In terms of offensive power this season, Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool are on par, but in terms of total number of goals, Manchester City is the first, while Chelsea is far ahead in defense. This is a contradiction in the Premier League this season.

Manchester City can't afford to lose, they are out of the Champions League, and they are 8 points behind in one game less in the league. If they lose this game again, Guardiola's coaching position will hardly be said to be stable.

And Chelsea is the same, the Europa League is out, the FA Cup is out, if the league does not even qualify for the Champions League, Conte will lose his position. Chelsea currently ranks fourth with 80 points, and Tottenham are behind. The spurs were only 4 points away.

Sun Wu picked up the schedule again. Although this is the 34th round of the league, Manchester United has one less game, Manchester City has two less games, and there will be one less game next, because next weekend is the FA Cup semi-final.

So there are still 4 rounds until the end of the league, but in fact, for Manchester United and Manchester City, there are still 5 or even 6 rounds.

"Next week will be double matches a week." Mike Phelan glanced over, "Crystal Palace will be played in midweek, and Liverpool will be played on weekends."

"Manchester City will also play a make-up match next week against Tottenham."

"We are playing Tottenham next weekend because the FA Cup semi-final is postponed and it is currently scheduled for May. This is not good news."

"It's hard to say, Manchester City may lose points by playing against Chelsea and Tottenham in a row." Carrick from the side leaned over, "It's still 1-0 over there?"

London, Stamford Bridge Stadium.

Excited shouts hovered over the court, and Conte on the sidelines jumped up and down like a big horse monkey, and rushed out to jump on Diego Costa who was rushing over.

Although Chelsea's performance this season is not satisfactory, Diego Costa has brought 28 league goals to the Blues fans. If there is no accident, he will become the new generation of Blues' top scorer after Didier Drogba.

The rhythm of the game was completely in the hands of Manchester City, and Chelsea put out the bus, this is not 343, it is already 541.

City were never able to find chances from open play, but took the lead through set-pieces and a direct free-kick from David Silva.

But in the last 10 minutes, when Manchester City tried to score another goal to kill the game, Schneiderlin sprained his ankle in a defense, and Conte reluctantly replaced Fabregas.

Fabregas, who had only 15 appearances this season, sent his iconic pass in the 88th minute. Diego Costa arrived just right, facing the attacking Bravo, he directly volleyed and scored. .

This is a goal that makes Guardiola desperate. He is 10 points behind in one less game and there are 5 league rounds left. What does this mean?
Even if Manchester City takes all the points, Manchester United only needs to score 5 points in the next 9 league rounds to securely win the league championship, which means it doesn't matter if they lose two games.

In the first 34 rounds of this season, Manchester United only lost 1 round of the league, and that was the second round of the league where Sun Wu was suspended.

The news reached Old Trafford, Giggs and Carrick pumped their fists excitedly, the fans also received the news, and the singing in the stands became louder and louder.

Mike Phelan hugged Sun Wu vigorously, "Best, do the math, do the math, when will we win the championship!"

Sun Wu twitched the corner of his mouth, these scumbags...

Calculating silently in his heart, Sun Wu said slowly: "If it goes well, win the make-up match in the middle of next week, then beat Leicester City in the 36th round, and Norwich City in the 5th round in early May to seal the championship , if there is a mistake, we have to wait for the make-up match against Tottenham."

Mike Phelan praised: "Win the championship early again. It is not unusual for Manchester United to win three consecutive championships, but what is strange is that they have won the championship early for three consecutive seasons!"

Sun Wu shrugged, "With a record of 22 consecutive victories and a record of 31 undefeated rounds, it is only natural to win the championship early!"

比赛结束后，曼联以33战31胜2平1负积95的骄人战绩领跑积分榜，曼城32战27胜4平2负积85分排名第二。

Almost all the media, including the "Manchester Evening News", which is biased towards Manchester City, also believe that there is no suspense for this season's league title, and Manchester United will almost certainly create the record for the highest number of championship points in Premier League history.

So, the next night, when Christine dragged Patrick to Sun's house, the latter was quite upset.

"That's right, you said it, but I didn't agree to this bet." Patrick said with his head down.

Christine put her hands on her hips and said sharply: "I testify, you agreed... You will come to Manchester United as an assistant coach if Manchester United wins three consecutive championships!"

Sun Wu lay lazily on the sofa, "Christine, don't worry...the league is not over yet, maybe there will be a miracle... Besides, is Uncle Patrick the kind of person who doesn't admit defeat?"

Patrick stared at Sun Wu fiercely, and was about to say a few harsh words, when suddenly there was a burst of laughter from the TV opposite.

On the screen, Carragher leaned forward and back with a smile, and when the camera turned, Scholes, Gary Neville, and Robbie Fowler couldn't help laughing.

"That's right, at least they can save the club a few travel expenses, although it's not that far from Manchester to Liverpool... Hahaha!"

"There is really no need to investigate. Look at Klopp. If he hadn't just finished playing Manchester City, he would definitely not fly to Manchester to watch Manchester United's game against Bayern."

"Yes, they are too familiar, too familiar."

Just earlier today, UEFA held the draw ceremony for the semi-finals. Real Madrid drew Atletico Madrid, Liverpool drew Manchester United, and La Liga and the Premier League both had civil wars.

The former is the Madrid Derby, and the latter is the Double Red Club.

And before the start of the semi-finals, the FA Cup semi-finals are also double red.

In other words, within half a month from April 4th to May 24th, there will be three double-red meetings, which has never happened before.

There have been discussions within the Manchester United coaching staff that Real Madrid is relatively stronger, and Atletico Madrid is relatively more spiritual, but for Manchester United, Liverpool is their least favorite opponent.

The victory or defeat of the Double Red Club is never just because of the comparison of the strengths of the two sides. There are many, many factors that affect the outcome.

Even in the more than ten years that Ferguson suppressed Liverpool, Liverpool often beat Manchester United.

Of course, in the last three years, Liverpool has never won against Manchester United. Although Sun Wu doesn't like this opponent, he is full of confidence.
