Chapter 484 New Captain (page 12)

Amid cheers throughout the stadium, Manchester United players pounced on Bruno, celebrating his goal.

This is Manchester United's first league goal of the new season, which is somewhat memorable.

Mata's whole body wrapped around Bruno's neck, and said sourly and without complaint: "I have obviously raised my hand, why don't you pass it to me?"

Bruno laughed loudly and said: "I saw it, you ran well. I originally wanted to pass it, but I felt more confident."

Anyway, we have entered, who knows how sure we are?

Zero angle... more confident?

Mata couldn't bear it anymore and had the urge to go crazy.

His chances are obviously better, right?

Bruno laughed and hugged Mata's shoulders, turned to look at the sad-looking Joe Hart in front of the West Ham United goal, and secretly held a second of silence for him.

Speaking of which, this meritorious goalkeeper who guarded the Blue Moon Legion's goal during the rise of Manchester City is also quite miserable. As the main goalkeeper of two Premier League championships, four-time Premier League Golden Glove Award winner, and a member of the Premier League club with 100 clean sheets, Joe Hart is definitely a successful goalkeeper, but what more people remember is the world-beating goals. , Rooney's barb, Ibrahimovic's barb, Gaspar's side hook, Crouch's volley...

Perhaps after today, Joe Hart’s background list will also include Bruno’s Zero Degree!

………………

After Bruno high-fived his teammates one by one to celebrate, he called his teammates back to the playing field and prepared to restart the game.

Naturally, a goal cannot satisfy Bruno, because Manchester United not only wants to win this game, but also wants to win beautifully and win a full house. Only in this way can Mourinho insist on using the current style of play.

Bruno knows very well that Mourinho is a very stubborn person, which also makes it difficult for him to stay in a team for too long, and then the world football world has the saying that Mourinho has three years.

In his first season with Mourinho, Bruno felt very good and the team also achieved outstanding results.

According to past rules, Mourinho's second year of coaching the team is when he really achieves results, so this season, Bruno's goal is to go to the Champions League.

Now it is rare that Mourinho intends to make changes, and he also hopes that this change can change Mourinho's destiny.

………………

When Bruno scored the first goal for Manchester United, the situation on the field was completely broken.

Just five minutes later, Bruno cooperated with Valencia on the right and once again created an opportunity. Valencia crossed to the front of the penalty area. Mata quickly stepped in and scored in one fell swoop, giving Manchester United another victory.

2: 0!

West Ham United lost two goals in a row and their morale was depleted. Although rock coach Bilic tried desperately to prevent the team from defeat, he still could not withstand Manchester United, which was like a wolf in the first round of the new season.

In the 19th minute, West Ham United passed the ball to the frontcourt and made a mistake. Kanter quickly found McTominay with a long pass.

Little Mike, who was a guest center, flew the header behind the defense. Bruno quickly made a diagonal pass, caught up with the ball and easily passed the goalkeeper. He pushed the ball into the empty goal and scored twice, extending the score to 3:0.

In the 29th minute, Manchester United launched another offensive. Mata cooperated with Rashford on the left, and Rashford shot and scored again.

4: 0!

After a devastating defeat, West Ham United has been completely stunned!

Although Manchester United slowed down the pace appropriately after taking a four-goal lead, before the end of the first half, Valencia passed from the right and McTominay scored with a header from close range.

5: 0!

Manchester United entered the halftime break with a five-goal victory, and everyone believed that the team was certain to win.

The situation in the second half developed almost according to the team's expectations. West Ham United, which had lost five goals in a row, could only barely hold on to its defense and had no ability to counterattack. Manchester United was not in a hurry to attack after taking a five-goal lead. Control the ball.

In the end, Manchester United defeated West Ham United 5-0 at home and won a hearty victory.

Manchester United defeated West Ham United 5-0 in the first round of the league and climbed to the top of the Premier League.

The second ranked team is newly promoted Huddersfield. Huddersfield defeated Crystal Palace 3:0 away from home in the first round of the league, beating Manchester City and Tottenham, which both won 2:0, with a goal difference advantage.

………………

There is a week between the first and second rounds.

United had a day off the day after the game and a half-day on Friday morning.

Bruno did not take a vacation, but continued to stay at the club and practice hard because he knew that his condition was recovering rapidly and he did not feel that he needed a rest.

On Friday afternoon, everyone in the team returned to the Carrington training base.

After the afternoon training, Mourinho did not immediately announce the disbandment, but announced something, that is, Carrick joined his coaching staff. This season, Carrick will play for Manchester United as a player and assistant coach.

Carrick also said that in order to better serve the team, he will resign as team captain.

This also means that Manchester United must re-elect their captain.

Re-electing the captain is definitely a big deal in the locker room.

Carrick is a qualified and dedicated captain, but as everyone can see, he has gradually lost his main position. Although he still has the identity of a player this season, it can be seen from his resignation as captain that his identity this season has actually changed to the team's assistant coach.

With Carrick no longer captaining the team, who is the better player?

The captains of many teams will choose direct descendants of the youth training. Such players with good roots are undoubtedly the best choice.

But what is embarrassing is that although the current Manchester United team has several youth training players such as Rashford, Lingard and McTominay, they are all newcomers without exception, regardless of their qualifications. Neither the prestige nor the prestige can afford the captaincy of a wealthy team like Manchester United.

………………

Since you can't choose a direct descendant of the youth training, you can only consider it in terms of qualifications and prestige.

If you look at the resume, the team's vice-captain Valencia is qualified because he is currently the longest-serving player in the team. The Ecuadorian joined the team in the summer of 2009 and has played for Manchester United for eight years, earlier than Smalling, De Gea and Ashley Young.

Valencia has a calm personality, and as a veteran who has made great contributions to the Ferguson incident, he is also very prestigious in the team's locker room. As a captain, he has good conditions in all aspects.

But one problem is that Valencia is 32 years old and has not been the absolute main force of the team in the past two seasons. With the addition of Cancelo this season, his playing time may be further compressed.

If he is elected captain, it will definitely be a transitional role.

As for the rest of Smalling, Ashley Young and De Gea, they all have problems of one kind or another and are not good captain candidates.

Many people also think that Bruno is suitable. He is the number one star in the team, his performance on the field is convincing, his fighting spirit is very strong, and he can easily infect his teammates around him. But the problem is that he is too young, has only been in the team for one year, and has insufficient qualifications.
