Starting from entering Kawazu

Chapter 147
The Community Shield has always been a warm-up, and there is a curse.

However, after Manchester City won the Community Shield last season, they were not poisoned. Instead, they won the Triple Crown. Obviously, the curse will always be broken.

In this game, Mourinho let the veteran Hubner and the teenager Charlie Sheringham partner as strikers. The front midfielder is useless, and there are 6 midfielders.

These three will definitely take turns to get assists.

A large number of young players are on the field, which is similar to Wenger's arrangement. Arsenal also has a large number of substitutes. Both sides are testing the effect of summer preparations.

In the opening 9 minutes, Lampard put in a through pass, Hubner turned around wildly, shot vigorously, and the ball went straight to the dead corner, 1:0!

The old Italian smoker was so excited that he rushed to the sidelines and yelled.

The Manchester City fans in the stands were also very excited. This veteran could actually surprise them. They thought the club bought it to make up the numbers.

Mourinho also turned his head in surprise and murmured something to Guardiola, and Guardiola also shook his head in disbelief. Obviously, he couldn't see clearly about Hubner's state.

After coming to Manchester City, Hubner can be said to be quickly isolated by his teammates.

It's not that he's the only Italian in the team, it's that he smokes and drinks and smells bad.

But he can score goals and that's fine.

At this time, teammates also ran up to congratulate Hubner.

The old smoker smiled a little honestly at this time, and he was probably very proud in his heart.

Jia Yi saw the goal in the stands and was satisfied with his decision. It seems that this old smoker can play for a few more seasons.

After the game restarted, Arsenal quickly pressed forward to attack.

Wright-Phillips puts on the wing at high speed, Ariadiere jumps over, but Cahill has another bad luck, the ball hits him on the forehead and flies towards the goal. Joe Hart has no time to react, and the ball flies in. Goal, 1:1, Arsenal Lightning equalized the score.

On the sidelines, Mourinho had a bitter look on his face. This Cahill is really unlucky. It is considered a warm-up match. This is already his second own goal since he came to the first team.

Guardiola has some confidence in his disciples. In the reserve team league, Cahill performed very well. Last season, the reserve team won the FA Youth Cup, and Cahill contributed a lot.

Maybe he still hasn't adapted to the adult competition. Cahill still needs to increase his competition experience.

On the other side, Wenger was cheerful. He didn't expect this kind of result either.

The two sides confronted each other without reservation.

In the 19th minute, the old smoker received a pass from Mendes and fired a shot from outside the penalty area. The ball flew into the upper left corner of the goal like a shell, 2:1!

"Haha, old man, yes."

Jia Yi couldn't help laughing. Hubner's shot was really good. Once he was given space, the 30-meter area was very dangerous.

The Arsenal players obviously didn't know anything about Hubner, and they didn't defend him closely at all. Now, it's a bit miserable to die.

If Hubner's body can be kept in shape for a few more years, he may still be able to score a lot of goals.

On the field, teammates rushed forward again, and now they no longer dislike the smell of tobacco and alcohol on Hubner, and they are all conquered by the old smoker.

Hubner also grinned happily. He didn't expect to score twice in his first game in Manchester City. Although this is just a tasteless cup game, this feeling is still very good.

Hubner's performance also put a lot of pressure on the forwards on the bench.

This year the team has 8 forwards, and Mourinho has always liked defensive tactics, and he can play at most two per game. Such fierce competition is absolutely driving people crazy.

However, the transfer window has not yet closed, and there may be changes to the 8 forwards by then.

If the condition is not good, it is likely to be rented out.

The game continues.

Arsenal also quickly counterattacked, and this group of youth troops is also quite capable of attacking.

Ariadiele's personal ability is still good, and it caused Cahill a lot of trouble.

In this way, both of them will grow rapidly, depending on how high they can reach.

Before the end of halftime, Mendes hooked Ariadiere's ball behind his back and then turned around and kicked it out. The ball was once again accurately stopped by veteran Hubner.

Faced with the double-teaming of the opponent's player, Hubner pushed lightly, and the teenager Charlie Sheringham inserted at high speed and volleyed vigorously, 3:1!

The two hugged each other excitedly. The age difference is 21 years, but they cooperated very well.

After Jia Yi saw it, he also had some ideas. If the abilities of these two people were combined, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Thinking of this, Jia Yi immediately activated the system, wanting to integrate the attributes of the two, that is, to take some attributes from each other to make up for his own shortcomings.

However, the system did not pass.

It seems that only one can be copied to another, and the original owner is compensated.

Jia had to copy Hubner's shooting attributes and gave it to Charlie Sheringham.

"The replication was successful, and Hubner's shooting returned to the average Italian player's shooting.

During the distribution of compensation, Hubner got the shot crit skill, and the time is limited to one season! "

After the system prompts, Jia Yi is dumbfounded, why are you still playing like this?

Obviously, this shooting crit technique also improves the shooting ability. The so-called crit is definitely to increase the aesthetics of violence in the shot, and the destructive power is stronger, making the opponent irresistible.

Hubnell gave Charlie Sheringham his own shooting attributes, but the system compensated him again. Although there is only one season, this season may become Hubnell's most memorable season.

Charlie Sheringham has increased shooting ability, and Hubnell has also increased shooting ability. Isn't this going to make them a nightmare for opponents?
At halftime, Manchester City led 3:1.

After the start of the second half, Mourinho replaced Maniche and Lampard, leaving only Mendes on the field as a midfielder.

The newly arrived Ilham Jiang and Reyes also adjusted the team's lineup to 3-4-3.
As soon as Reyes came up, he quickly hit the bottom line from the side and swept across the goal. Charlie Sheringham made a touch in front of him, and the ball was saved by Lehmann.

Charlie Sheringham quickly stepped forward to make up the shot, and Senderos reacted quickly. The two fell to the ground after facing each other at the same time, but the ball jumped out of the penalty area.

Hubner flew forward and felt that when he saw the opponent's defender rushing over, he jumped up high and made a sideways volley shot. The ball flew into the Arsenal goal like a shell, 4:1!

Crit effect, the first experience is really crazy!

"Dude, pinch me!"

After Mourinho saw Hubner's goal, he immediately said to Guardiola.

Guardiola smiled and said: "Jose, are you stupid? The goal is scored, you are not mistaken, this old smoker, what a surprise, our boss, can always bring us different players, this time , the old smoker will become our secret weapon again."

Mourinho punched Guardiola hard, and said: "Isn't it, with him, let's agree to Inter Milan's offer."

Inter Milan previously offered 1500 million pounds to buy Cruz. Mourinho felt that it was not a good deal. Cruz scored 19 goals for Chelsea last season and was a prolific shooter.

But now, with the performance of Hubnell and Charlie Sheringham, there is no need to keep Cruz.

Returning some money to the club and streamlining the lineup is also good for Cruz, which is indeed worth considering.

Guardiola said with a smile: "Our front line is indeed overcrowded. Now everyone has their own characteristics. It would be a pity to give up anyone. This is the coach's trouble."

"Who says no? Now I am full of expectations for Tristan, Luke, and Kevin Phillips. Maybe one day, they will explode."

Mourinho laughed.

Now Mourinho really doesn't have any grievances. None of the people Jia Yi brought is a coward, so why bother?

The game continues.

The two sides scored another goal later. In the end, Manchester City beat Arsenal 5:2 and successfully defended the Community Shield champion.

In the post-match press conference, Hubner was the focus.

"Yes, this is an old monster. His hat-trick shocked us all. Is he 37 years old? I suspect he changed his age by 10 years."

Mourinho was also amazed when he talked about Hubner.

Wenger also praised Hubner's performance, but he was not angry at the result of the game.

This is just a warm-up match, the real test is yet to come.

The next day, Manchester City announced that the team's Argentine striker Cruz had moved to Inter Milan for £1500 million.

The Argentine did not come to Manchester City to play many games, but he still made money for the club.

For Inter Milan, this is late love.

In another time and space, Cruz should have arrived at Inter Milan long ago. In this time and space, he was a year late.

But for him, this is still a trip worth taking risks. Coming to a giant team like Inter Milan, Cruz is eager to be the protagonist.

Subsequently, the club announced that the teenager Charlie Sheringham would be loaned to Chelsea to continue to slim down the striker.

Chelsea helped Manchester City train players for free, which is indeed a good move.

Although Charlie Sheringham has shown the true qualities of a future striker, he is only 16 years old and he needs a lot of game opportunities to develop.

Staying in Manchester City should not have so many opportunities.

Of course, Chelsea welcomes this. Every player from Manchester City is a good player.

La Nieli, a tinkerer, is good at doing this kind of thing. He moves here and there. La Nieli's goal this season is to reach the top 16 of the Champions League and fourth in the league!
Manchester City then closed the transfer window.
