Star card system.

With Xia Xing's goal in the first half, Manchester United opened the scoring.

Relying on De Gea's world-class performance, Manchester United achieved a clean sheet.

In the end, Manchester United won this much-anticipated double red meeting.

The score of 1-0 cannot represent the intensity of the game, but three points is enough.

Overall, Liverpool performed very well today.

For example, Henderson even interfered with Xia Xing's passing and shooting many times, and his risk-taking style of play made Xia Xing uncomfortable.

For example, Salah, Mane, and Firmino shot frequently with good angles, speed, and power.

But there was no way, they encountered Manchester United's strongest resistance.

In the end, I can only regret Manchester and watch helplessly as Manchester United continues to lead the Premier League standings.

Klopp's harsh words last season about winning the Premier League title this season seem to be drifting away now...

In this long winter, Manchester United completed the first half of the Premier League.

They lead the Premier League table with a four-point advantage over Liverpool.

But Solskjaer knows very well why the team is strong.

They are in good shape in many aspects, but the biggest contributor is of course Xia Xing.

For half the season, Xia Xing played all the games and almost all 90 minutes.

And until now, Xia Xing is still the top scorer and assist leader on all fronts.

This is simply an incredible result!

Win the Premier League and win the Europa League!

King-level performance!

Even the results of this half season have become the best half season of Xia Xing's career!

Everyone praised Xia Xing, and Solskjaer naturally did so.

But he was also worried inside.

The team needs an outstanding midfield star.

Whether it is as a supplement to Xia Xing or as an improvement in tactical diversity, signings must be made.

In the half-season since Drinkwater joined the team, he has really recovered well and become a strong supporter.

But after all, he is not the core of the midfield, but just a role player like snake oil.

I used to be a great player in Leicester City, but not in Manchester United. After all, this is the best club in England.

Therefore, the top attacker in the midfield must buy one.

In addition to the midfielder, another forward, preferably a center forward, needs to be introduced.

There are only two people at the center position this season, Greenwood and Martial.

Greenwood's performance is not bad, but it is all done properly at the tactical level. After all, he is not a natural center candidate. Only his flexible movement in the frontcourt can maximize his effect.

As for Martial, although he has center potential, his physical confrontation is too poor, and his running is not active enough, and his header is not good either.

Therefore, Manchester United must buy a reliable center.

Finally, under the operation of the club, Manchester United finally signed the all-round attacker they wanted in the midfield.

Portuguese star Bruno Fernandez!

The 26-year-old Portuguese midfielder transferred from Sporting CP and cost Manchester United a transfer fee of 6500 million euros.

The price is not low.

You must know that he has played for Udinese and Sampdoria in Serie A before, but he did not have much energy. He finally returned to Portugal and slowly returned to people's vision.

During his time at Sporting CP, his talent was fully utilized.

His superb passing ability is what everyone knows about him.

Whether it's a key pass, a through ball, or a cross from the wing, he is a good player.

It is not an exaggeration to even say that he is Europe's top passer.

And when the team needs it, he can always appear on the defensive end.

And he also has the ability to shoot long distance.

Overall, he has a strong overall ability and is a good support.

Some people even compared him to the Portuguese midfield superstar Rui Costa.

Although the strength and historical status are still far behind, it is already very successful if it can be compared with its predecessors. Joining Manchester United and wearing the No. 18 jersey, Solskjaer has high hopes for him.

But when someone comes, someone leaves.

The previous owner of the No. 18 jersey left Manchester United just this winter.

Ashley Young, Manchester United vice-captain and a meritorious veteran of Manchester United.

He was a signing from the Ferguson era. He was once criticized for his rough skills and his ability to run around blindly.

But now it seems that no one in the Manchester United team can catch up with him.

Even Luke Shaw, who is very talented, is far less comprehensive than Ashley Young.

However, as he gets older, he has lost his main position.

This winter, he left Manchester United, where he had played for ten years, in order to play more games.

Manchester United was also interested in him and let him go to Inter Milan for a symbolic price of 170 million euros.

This low price does not reflect the value of Ashley Young.

This is just because the club downgraded the transfer fee in order to help the veteran get better treatment in the new team.

Ashley Young burst into tears on the training ground before leaving Manchester United.

He hugged Xia Xing, De Gea, Smalling and other veterans tightly and said goodbye reluctantly.

Also leaving was Rojo.

The Argentine veteran returned to the Argentine League on loan and joined Estudiantes de La Plata.

Whether he will come back after half a year is unknown.

After leaving two left-backs, Solskjaer promoted several teenagers from the youth team.

Solskjaer's characteristic is his love for young people.

One transfer cost 6500 million euros, which put Solskjaer's center candidate in ruins.

Manchester United is indeed out of money.

In the end, at Solskjaer's strong request, they gave face and added an additional 13 million.

This is the upper limit of the club.

But at this price, how can you buy a good center?

You must know that Manchester United is now a championship team, what is the use of buying a second-rate center?

But with so much money, do you want love?

Solskjaer could only endure it.

In the end, after careful selection, he chose Ighalo, the striker of the Chinese Super League.

One-year loan with a loan fee of 1200 million euros, including a buyout clause.

If he can prove his worth, then he is likely to get a long-term contract with Manchester United.

However, because of this loan, Manchester United was ridiculed by countless hostile fans.

Have you all started poaching people from the Chinese Super League?

But Manchester United fans also have something to say.

Ighalo made his debut with Udinese in Serie A in 2008, and his starting point was not low.

After that, he has been playing in Serie A, La Liga and the Premier League for the past ten years. He is definitely a player at the level of the five major leagues!

This is indeed true.

As a center who can gain a foothold in the Premier League and Serie A, Ighalo's strength is obvious to all.

When he joined Manchester United, he was the fulcrum center that Solskjaer expected.

With him in the middle, the Fast Horses on the wings will have more ways to handle the ball.

Although Manchester United didn't make many moves in this winter window, they made quite a lot of moves.

The transfer fee of B fee is 6500 million euros, which demonstrates Manchester United's ambitions.

With a strong team in the second half of the season, Manchester United is ready to go and looks forward to sprinting across the board! (End of chapter)
