Chapter 701 Things change and people change

Fellaini is gone.

On a sunny morning in February 2019, I traveled thousands of miles by plane to a strange country.

Go play in an unfamiliar league.

At this time, Xia Xing, who was on the training ground, suddenly heard the roar of a plane. He looked up and saw a plane heading east.

Maybe Fellaini is sitting on it?

do not know.

For a moment, Xia Xing suddenly felt sad.

Only half a year later, Manchester United has undergone tremendous changes from last season.

Rooney and Carrick retired, and Ibrahimovic left the team.

The departure of three veterans made him the new captain and he was under tremendous pressure.

Mourinho's departure made Xia Xing extremely melancholy.

He likes Mourinho.

Even if in fact Pearson and Ranieri, Xia Xing prefers Mourinho.

He likes the Portuguese's invincible desire to win, and it feels super cool to work with such people.

And now, Fellaini has also left.

When Mourinho was coaching before, if he encountered a fierce opponent's attack, he often deployed three defensive midfielders.

Himself, Matic, Fellaini.

The defense of the three is like an iron wall, able to block any opponent's fierce attack.

Even Xia Xing recalled that when he was at Leicester City, his partnership with Kante and Drinkwater was not necessarily as enjoyable as Manchester United.

Matic and Fellaini are both tall, and they are a great intimidation to opposing offensive players, and they are very practical standing next to them.

And now, Fellaini is gone.

If you encounter the opponent's fierce attack, there will be no assistance from Fellaini...

On the training ground that day, Herrera played extremely hard and even knocked down his teammates with too much force a few times.

No one knows why.

Only Xia Xing went over and patted his shoulder gently.

Herrera looked expressionless and nodded slightly.

xia, in a few months, it will be your turn to send me off...

February has arrived, and Manchester United will face several tough battles this month.

February 2, the 3th round of the Premier League, away game against Leicester City.

February 2, the 9th round of the Premier League, away game against Fulham.

On February 2, in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Paris faced the challenge at home.

February 2th, FA Cup fifth round, away game against Chelsea.

On February 2th, in the twenty-seventh round of the Premier League, Liverpool will be welcomed at home, and the second round of the double red club is about to begin.

February 2, the 28th round of the Premier League, away to Crystal Palace.

In the entire month of February, Manchester United only played six games. Although there were two double matches a week, it was already considered very good.

It’s much better than the previous intensive schedule around Christmas.

However, many heavyweight matches and powerful opponents have put Solskjaer under great pressure.

On February 2, the King Power Stadium welcomed the Manchester United players.

During this match, Xia Xing looked serious. Looking at the huge photo of Vichai placed in the stands, he bowed deeply.

Captain Morgan and Schmeichel stepped forward and greeted Xia Xing in a friendly manner.

"team leader."

"Xia, it's great that you are also the captain now. And you have won another Golden Globe Award. I am really happy for you."

“I wouldn’t be where I am now if it wasn’t for the valuable experience I had at Leicester City, thank you all.”

On the side, Vardy also came over and gave Xia Xing a hug.

"Xia, I had a dream last night. I dreamed that you returned to Leicester City and we scored goals together." "I miss those old stories too. I miss you so much."

This game was full of warmth. The scene of Xia Xing and Leicester City players hugging each other before the game moved countless fans in the stands.

It’s so touching to recall those unforgettable stories.

Beside the Manchester United coaching bench, Leicester City defender Evans was also greeting Carrick.

"Michael, long time no see."

"Jonathan, long time no see."

"To be honest, I'm still not used to the way you look in a suit. You won't be able to replace yourself in a while."

"Haha, it's not that bad. You're in good shape during this period. I'm really happy for you."

"Isn't it good? How about you say hello to the Manchester United board of directors and buy me back?"

"What a great idea!"

"Ha ha!"

The two had a good personal relationship and were joking on the sidelines.

Evans, 30, is a native of Manchester.

He grew up in Manchester since he was a child, and even entered the Manchester United youth team early.

In 2006, he was officially promoted to the first team.

After that, he experienced many coaches, and finally moved to West Brom in the summer of 2015.

In the summer of 2018, he came to Leicester City again and became an important part of the team's new puzzle.

He and Carrick have worked together for many years at Manchester United and have a good relationship.

Many players from the two teams have a very good relationship, and the two sides were extremely friendly before the game.

But when the opening whistle sounded, everything seemed to have changed.

Especially Leicester City launched a rapid attack from the beginning!

Leicester City used the same 4-2-3-1 formation in this game, and coach Pierre was suspected of replicating Mourinho's style of play.

But with this lineup, they have been in excellent shape in the past two months.

The double defensive midfielders Mendy and Ndidi work well together and have excellent defensive capabilities.

With the two of them sitting in the midfield, Madison, the No. 10 core in front of him, can organize the offense with ease.

Madison, who was transferred for 2500 million euros last summer, is only 22 years old this year.

Excellent defense, excellent offense, accurate passing, quick long-range shots, and also has a very good free kick level.

Now in Leicester City's formation, he is even called "Xiao Xia Xing" by fans.

It's enough to prove the fans' love for him.

In this game, he still started as the team's core organizer, delivering cannonballs to Vardy in the frontcourt.

In the current Leicester City formation, Vardy is still the number one attacker who bears the brunt.

As soon as the game started, Leicester City relied on Ndidi's midfield steal to create a fast break opportunity!

Give the ball to Madison!

Madison deftly passed the oncoming Fred and quickly passed through!

Accurately found Vardy who penetrated forward!

Vardy sprinted quickly, entered the penalty area, and shot low!

The ball hit the lower edge of the post and bounced out!

They missed the opportunity to score in the opening game!

And next, Leicester City took advantage of their home court to attack Manchester United!

Left forward Harvey Barnes is another highlight of Leicester City today.

He is a talented forward produced by Leicester City's youth training. He has been on loan for the past few years and just returned this winter.

But he just came back, and he contributed two passes and two shots in five games in January, becoming the new favorite of the fans.

Vardy has been lacking a strong strike partner, and now Leicester City sees new hope.

There is also the increasingly mature young defender Chilwell, who has already become an indispensable defensive general for the team.

With Madison, Harvey Barnes, Chilwell and other young stars, Leicester City's revival is in sight.

In this game, it will be very difficult for Manchester United to win away from home... (End of this chapter)
