Star card system.

Mourinho heard boos from some Chelsea fans outside Old Trafford.

This made Perrin beside him frown.

"Aren't these fans going a little too far?"

Mourinho shook his head: "Each one is his own master, I can understand them."

"But you are Chelsea's godfather-level coach after all!"

"But I still couldn't bring Chelsea a Champions League trophy, which is a pity."

Sitting in the bus, Mourinho looked out through the window with complicated eyes.

Perrin patted his shoulder gently and sighed softly.

Alas, this is football...

The bus stopped, and the Manchester United soldiers got off and walked to the players' tunnel.

When Mourinho got out of the car, the Chelsea fans not far away booed again.

This makes Manchester United players very unhappy!

When facing the former coach and the former meritorious coach, is this the way you behave?
Xia Xing, who was signing autographs and taking photos with Manchester United fans, frowned slightly. He patted the fans on the shoulders and pointed to the Chelsea fans not far away who were booing Mourinho.

"understand!"

Manchester United fans quickly lined up and shouted Mourinho's name loudly!
Applause everywhere!

Outside the Old Trafford stadium, we still can't suppress you!

Mourinho smiled and waved to the Manchester United fans, put his arm around Xia Xing's shoulders and walked into the tunnel together.

After finishing the preparations in the locker room, the Manchester United soldiers took the field.

Chelsea arrived earlier and they had already started to warm up.

On the sidelines, Mourinho saw Conte.

The two looked at each other, but neither of them had any intention of walking towards each other.

In the end, Mourinho took the initiative to go over and shook hands with Conte politely.

As soon as their hands touched, they both shrank back.

With nothing to say, Mourinho turned around and left, returning to the home team's coaching bench.

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer smiled and chatted with the fans.

"Now Mourinho and Conte have completely broken up.

"The two had a good relationship before, but since they met for the first time this season, they have become incompatible.

"Actually, it was just a matter of stance at first, and they didn't have much personal preference.
"One is a former Chelsea player and the other is a current Chelsea player. When the media talks about the two of them, it is bound to make people uncomfortable.

"This is normal.

“However, in the last round of the competition, the two had a head-on conflict.

"At Stamford Bridge, Conte's team led 3-0, and the Italians celebrated excitedly, which made Mourinho very dissatisfied.

"He even rushed to the Chelsea coach's bench to express his dissatisfaction to Conte, which almost caused a conflict between the two parties.
"But in the end, Manchester United achieved a great comeback 4-3 in that game, and Mourinho also got his revenge, which was great.

"But the war of words between the two sides after the game did not end.

"Conte, in particular, criticized Mourinho a lot, which further worsened the relationship between the two.

"So the meeting between the two just now was just a polite touch, and there was not even a verbal exchange.
“I believe that both sides of this game are holding back their energy and want to win the game.

"Even regardless of the team's situation, but considering their personal emotions, the two coaches are eager to defeat each other.
“This will definitely be a good game to watch.

"let us wait and see!"

Although the two coaches are not getting along, the players on both sides of the court have a good relationship.

Rooney and Terry, as captains of the two teams, were chatting happily in the middle of the court.

"Old man, I didn't expect you to start this game. I thought you were going to retire. There is really no one in Chelsea's defense."

"Forget it, you are only a few years younger than me, aren't you still starting for Manchester United? I think Manchester United's front line is empty." "Tch, as long as I am here, I will definitely score goals."

"Forget it, you really can't score as long as I'm here."

Terry and Rooney have played together in the national team for many years and have played together in many international competitions. They have always had a good relationship, so they can joke like this.

Beside them were Carrick and Gary Cahill, both current and former players of the England national team, also chatting.

There were also several Spanish national team teammates, including De Gea, Cesc Fabregas, Azpilicueta, Marcos Alonso and other players, also saying hello in the middle of the pitch.

De Gea: "Chelsea is really good, they are almost forming a Spanish gang."

Fabregas: "How about you come too? Come and play with us."

De Gea: "Forget it. In order to keep Courtois, you even ruined Cech. If I go, I will be finished."

Courtois, the protagonist described by De Gea, is also chatting with fellow national team members.

Belgians Fellaini, Courtois and Hazard were chatting lively about the recent national team match.

On the left side of the midfield, two friends were also chatting enthusiastically.

"Xia!"

"N'Golo!"

As soon as Xia Xing came on the stage, he met an old friend walking towards him quickly.

N'Golo Kantor.

The former Leicester City midfield partner and Xia Xing's most trusted defensive partner has now become Chelsea's midfield defensive iron gate.

Even after joining Manchester United and having many outstanding teammates, Xia Xing still felt that Kante was his best midfield partner, bar none.

His low-key, diligent, down-to-earth and steady attitude makes him definitely the best midfield partner I have ever encountered.

In other words, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best partner.

In Kanter's mind, the same is true for Xia Xing.

The best partner in my career, bar none.

Even now that he has come to Chelsea, where his teammates are stronger, and there are top stars like Hazard and Cesc Fabregas around him, Kante still misses his summer trip.

He even suggested to Conte whether he could try to sign Xia Xing, but in the end nothing happened.

Goodbye Xia Xing, Kanter's emotions were very complicated.

On the one hand, he missed his friends; on the other hand, he was also troubled by this rival status.

Xia Xing saw his predicament, stepped forward with a smile, and hugged him sincerely.

"N'Golo, I've been following your matches recently and you've performed extremely well."

"Really? Are you still paying attention to me?"

"Of course, you are a good friend of mine. Although it has been less than a season since you joined Chelsea, I think you have made great progress. It's really good."

"Xia, I have been paying attention to you. You have been performing at a world-class level recently. You are really amazing to be able to bring Manchester United, which was still in decline last season, to the top of the Premier League."

"To be honest, the last person I want to face in this game is you."

"me too."

"But I'm sure you will most likely be assigned to defend me."

"You really know our coach."

"I, I know you. In Chelsea, you are the only one who is most sure to defend me."

"Don't say that, I don't think I'm sure, but I will try my best."

"I will do the same. Let's meet on the field. Let me see up close how far you have progressed?"

"me too!"

The two brothers high-fived each other vigorously, their eyes shining brightly! (End of chapter)
