Chapter 399 This is what the most successful club in England should look like!
The Manchester Derby, which attracts global attention, has come to an end.
Manchester United relied on Ling Feng’s personal performance to defeat their local rival Manchester City 4-2 at home. In addition to winning the first-round Manchester Derby, Manchester United also extended their league winning streak to four games!
This is also a dream start for Manchester United to achieve consecutive league wins after five years!

"The best player in the Premier League! The best coach in the Premier League! Together, they are invincible!"
"Mourinho taught Guardiola a good lesson! The Premier League is not that easy to play!"
“The rise of the Red Devils is already unstoppable.”
In addition to the media’s hype, famous Red Devils who have always been very popular also took this opportunity to come out to enhance their presence. .
"Ling Feng proved his worth in just one game!" - Scholes.
"Lingfeng is the present and future of Manchester United!" - Gary Neville.
“This year’s Ballon d’Or should be awarded to him!” - Ferdinand.
In addition, before the game, the famous Lingfeng group leader Lineker, who predicted that Lingfeng would score a hat-trick, also posted two tweets in a row.
The first post is to congratulate Ling Feng for winning, and then adds a high-definition photo of Ling Feng shooting through the goal guarded by Bravo.
The second item is confession:
"It's great to see my little brother shine. Although he didn't score three goals as I expected. But two goals and two assists? I almost forgot he was a midfielder! However, now he can enjoy the beauty of scoring goals and assists! "
"You all know that I am happy to admit that Messi's playing style fascinates me. However, Ling Feng's playing style. , his wind-like speed, and his unstoppable super heavy artillery, all gave me a hearty feeling of pleasure!"
"I love Ling Feng so much"
And Ling Feng! Feng also immediately interacted with him on social media:
“I love you too, my friend!”
The overwhelming news reports also allowed Ling Feng to once again see the huge influence of the Manchester United platform.
It is not a key game to establish the championship, nor is it a cup final, it is just an ordinary league game, which can actually trigger such a huge discussion before and after the game.
However, it is easy to understand.
The first showdown in England between the two top managers in today's football, the club with the largest number of fans in the world and the most popular stars.
Both the topic and the attention , all filled up directly!
For the club and the fans, defeating Manchester City at home is of great significance!
Not only was it as simple as defeating a rival in the same city, but it also showed the world Manchester United's newfound fighting power.
This is what the most successful club in England should look like!
After welcoming new coach "Madman" Mourinho and investing nearly 200 million pounds, Manchester United has finally returned to the first group in the league championship!
Manchester City, which has the second best odds of winning the championship, has been beaten. Next, there are Chelsea, who have the third best odds of winning the championship, and Arsenal, who have the fourth.
As long as they kill these championship competitors one by one in a head-to-head confrontation, they will naturally be the best candidates for the championship!
This day is really exciting!
And this is all thanks to the master-disciple pair of Mourinho and Ling Feng.
For a time, there were waves of praise for Mourinho on the Internet.
“Famous marshal, capable!”
"The real man of the Red Devils!"
"Mourinho, you are my god!"
And Lingfeng's jersey sales have skyrocketed again!
From joining Manchester City Derby, just one month after he joined Manchester United, his jersey sales reached a terrifying 750,000 pieces!
This number is more than one-third of Manchester United’s total jersey sales last year!
It also set a record for jersey sales for new Premier League players joining the team!
The official selling price of a Manchester United jersey is between 80 and 110 pounds.
In other words, in just one month, Manchester United earned nearly 70 million pounds just by selling Ling Feng's No. 7 jersey
If this continues, within three months, Manchester United can recoup Ling Feng's transfer fee just by selling jerseys!
After the "Daily Mail" published this data, everyone once again appreciated the terrifying influence of the Red Devils and Manchester United.
The most popular players in the Premier League and even Europe, plus the club with the most fans in the world, it is simply a powerful combination of the top and the top!
It would be strange if jersey sales don’t explode!
Of course, jersey sales have soared, and the happiest person is not the club, but the jersey manufacturer.
Because the majority of the profits from jersey sales belong to the manufacturer (Adidas), Manchester United can actually only get a 5 to 10% share.
In fact, for Manchester United's operations, jersey sales only account for a small part of the club's revenue.
The key is that Ling Feng, as the Red Devils' new No. 7, can bring more brand effect and commercial value to Manchester United.
The better Ling Feng performs on the court, the higher his commercial value will be.
As for Manchester United, which aims to build Lingfeng into the new face of the Red Devils, they can extend their brand influence to a new generation through Lingfeng’s outstanding image and huge influence among British youth groups. among young people.
You must know that these young fans will become die-hard fans of Manchester United in the future and become long-term and loyal consumers!
. . .
Mourinho was very happy to give the first team a day off due to the Manchester City derby victory.
In the evening of the same day, Ling Feng, dressed in a casual suit, brought his girlfriend Barbara to Sir Alex Ferguson's home in Cheshire.
After yesterday's victory over Manchester City, Ferguson invited him to have dinner at home today.
Ling Feng also readily agreed.
After all, the opportunity to have dinner with the godfather of Manchester United does not come often.
"Sir Alex Ferguson, this is Egal's bull's blood"
Knowing that Mr. Ferguson likes to drink, he specially gave his girlfriend the famous Hungarian wine as a gift for dinner at his door.
“Haha, I’m interested.”
Compared to Ferguson, Ferguson’s wife Cathy is more enthusiastic.
In addition to preparing sumptuous Scottish specialties for Ling Feng and Barbara, they also praised Ling Feng non-stop at the dinner table:
"Young man, I have to tell you that since you joined, my old man has been laughing from ear to ear when he sees the news about Manchester United every day."
"You are so great, every time you are on the court. Taking the ball and passing the ball can make the team's offense smoother and more organized."
Perhaps it is because he is a senior fan himself, and because Ferguson often goes home to review after the game. The only one listening, Cathy's understanding of football is far deeper than many fans. Of course, the two elderly people did not forget to ask gossipy questions about their love lives.
For example, how long have we been together and how did we meet?
Although I have been in a stable relationship with Ling Feng for more than a year.
However, Barbara has not yet been taken home by Ling Feng to have dinner with his parents!
It's not that Ling Feng doesn't want to take him, it's just that the time doesn't always match up.
When they first started dating, the relationship was not yet stable, and the two of them did not propose to meet their parents.
When the relationship between the two stabilized, it was Ling’s father’s turn and Ling’s mother’s turn.
Because, at the beginning of this year, Ling Feng's parents quit their jobs and started traveling around the world!
Ling Feng can only know which country and city his parents are in through daily video calls.
Until now, Ling Feng has been to Barbara's home with his parents, brothers and sisters, but Barbara has not been to his home to have dinner with his family.
Therefore, she was somewhat nervous about the "concern" from her elders.
However, Barbara has always been very straightforward and cheerful, and she answered gracefully:
"The first time we met was in Milan"
After hearing the story of how the two met, Mrs. Ferguson winked at Ling Feng and said with a smile:
"Young man, you are a lucky guy!"
After eating, Ferguson took Ling Feng to visit his family's mansion, and then came to his honor collection room.
The walls are covered with important moments of Ferguson’s 27-year coaching career.
From being appointed as Manchester United coach in 1986 and his debut at home, to the first championship with Manchester United in 1990, the treble in 1999 and the UEFA Champions League in 2008.
In addition to the winning moments, there are also A group photo with Robson, Cantona, Class of 92, "Manchester United Twin Stars" Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo.
As one of the greatest managers in football, Ferguson’s Manchester United coaching career has too many memorable moments.
However, when it comes to the celebration photos of winning the Champions League in 2008 , Ferguson suddenly stopped:
“This is Manchester United’s last Champions League championship. Before you know it, eight years have passed.”
After sighing to himself, Ferguson turned around and asked casually:
"Do you and José still get along?"
"José is a very straightforward person. I have a good relationship with him. He has also fulfilled his promise and given me enough trust and freedom"
"How is Manchester compared to Leicester?"
< br>“It’s okay, I have nothing to complain about except the weather”
After chatting for a few words, Ferguson then went straight to the topic:
"Ling, do you think we have a chance to win the Champions League this season?"
For Ferguson, Manchester United can Not being able to win the league championship is not within his scope of consideration.
Because, there are too many Premier League champions in the Manchester United showroom!
They are also the club that has won the most championships in England's top league!
Winning another Premier League title will not greatly improve Manchester United's local historical status in England.
On the contrary, it is the Champions League champions who will announce to the world of football that the Red Devils are back!
As a club coach, the Champions League is the greatest stage!
Why did Manchester United have to replace Van Gaal, who won the FA Cup last year and finished fourth in the league?
On the one hand, we have almost reached an agreement with Mourinho, and on the other hand, it is also about Mourinho’s performance in the Champions League
Ferguson's thoughts are actually the same as those of many other old Red Devils fans who have witnessed Manchester United's past glory.
That is, they are the most successful club in England, and they are the super-rich club with the most fans in the world.
Therefore, they should have greater ambitions and goals!
The club’s highest honor is the Champions League championship!
So, even though the team has not won the league championship for several consecutive years, fans still have very high expectations for the club.
Top four in the league? FA Cup winner?
Not enough!
They want to win the championship!
Champion means league champion and Champions League champion!
Faced with Ferguson's question and those vicissitudes of his eyes eager for answers, Ling Feng did not answer immediately.
Instead, he pondered for a moment and then responded firmly:
"It's difficult. But we will do our best!"
. .
After the short vacation, Manchester United players are once again engaged in active preparations.
Because they are about to enter the Champions League!
And just before the team is about to usher in the first round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester United is ushering in double happiness!
Mourinho led the team to three consecutive league victories and scored 11 goals and conceded only 1 goal. He was well-deserved to be elected as the Premier League's best coach for August!
Manchester United's No. 7 Lingfeng, who provided three goals and six assists in three games, also defeated teammates Ibrahimovic, Manchester City's De Bruyne, Sterling, Chelsea's Hazard and other stars to be elected to the Premier League. Player of the Month for August!
It is not unusual for Manchester United generals to win the Best of the Month award.
Manchester United in August is simply scorching hot!
And this state of affairs also extends to the Champions League!
At Old Trafford, they ushered in the first round of the Champions League group stage.
The opponent is the Bundesliga powerhouse Monchengladbach!
Monchengladbach, nicknamed "The Little Pony", is definitely a traditional powerhouse in the Bundesliga.
German legends such as "Tiger" Effenberg and Heynckes also played for this team and made a name for themselves.
However, they were facing the mighty Red Devils Manchester United!
After the last Manchester City Derby, Mourinho also had a rough idea of the team's main lineup:
Martial can also be given time to make rescues;
Herrera returns to start as a defensive midfielder again, and Smalling returns to start as a central defender, allowing the midfield and backfield personnel to become more balanced
In this Borussia team, although there are Hazard Jr., Klaas Mo, Stindl, Dahoud, Rafael and other young talents and powerful players.
However, the overall strength still lags behind Manchester United.
And taking advantage of the Manchester City Derby victory, the Red Devils, playing at home, firmly took control of the initiative in the first second of the game!
In this game, Ling Feng transformed into a strolling midfield master, fully displaying his rich and varied passing skills.
In the first half, he assisted Martial to score his first goal of the season and assisted Ibrahimovic to score a header.
In the second half, he assisted Lingard, who came on as a substitute for Rooney, and completed his first goal in the Champions League!
After scoring the goal, Emperor Lin also excitedly gave Ling Feng a big hug.
In the end, Ling Feng, who completed a hat trick of assists, clocked out at the 75th minute amid the applause of the fans!
In the end, Manchester United defeated Borussia Monchengladbach 3-1 at home and won their first victory in the Champions League this season!
It also allowed Ling Feng to achieve a historic breakthrough from zero to one in the Champions League main game!
