Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

FC United's presentation of new signings this year was simple, with only three appearances and no big name yet, and although De Wright carried the title of Premier League title, he only made 10 appearances in the first half of the season and was loaned to Middlesbrough in the second half of the season.

The other two, one from Arsenal's youth squad and one from League Two, were not talked about, and it's no wonder that not much media was interested in FC United's launch today, only a few local media came to the venue.

But this also follows Lu Wei's wishes, the more low-key the better, the more you look down on me, the better.

After Lu Wei announced the end of this summer's transfer work, all the media scoffed at Lu Wei's behavior, the team took four main players, but only bought these three, and a League Two player, so Hayden can say, without Tyrone, Michu and Gnabry, this season FC United not to mention promotion, even relegation is difficult.

At the first gathering of the team, Lu Wei repeated this sentence in the newspaper to the players intact.

"What did you think when you heard that?"

Lu Wei stood on the sidelines and looked at the group of players in front of him.

"He farts!" "It's ridiculous!" "Pull it down!"

Various voices of opposition arose one after another, and suddenly a sentence exploded in the crowd.

"Who said our goal is to upgrade, our goal is to win!"

Lu Wei and the players looked over in unison, and it was the team captain Andrew who spoke. Robertson, I saw Robertson with his hands behind his back, his feet shoulder-width apart, and his eyes very resolute.

"Andrew! Shout again, what are our goals for this season! Lu Wei looked at Robertson and shouted.

Robertson straightened his chest and shouted out in the loudest voice, not only him, but the eyes of other FC United players also began to burn fire.

"Championship champion!"

"Shout again! I want to hear from all of you what our goals are for this season! "

Championship champion!"

Not only the players, but even the members of the coaching staff behind Lu Wei shouted out.

"Very good, last season we had some bad things, but that's gone, this season we have to start over, there are 46 games in the league and I don't ask you to get 46 wins, but I ask you to do 46 games and after 46 games we will be at the top of the Championship table in 16-17. Do you have the confidence to do it? "

Yes!"

After spending a month and a half of quiet time at Newton Heath Training Ground, many hot figures have appeared again, FC United first team except Zinchenko and Baird after participating in the European Championship extended their holidays, will not return to the team training until after the "Friendship Cup", everyone arrived Although

the transfer left four players, only three players were introduced, FC United first team members only twenty-four left, but the internal competition within the team, But it's stronger than last season, I don't know how much.

The most competitive position is undoubtedly the left-back position, with Robertson, the Red Rebel captain, and even Zinchenko, the first active FC United player to appear in the World Series, has to sit on the bench (Mane's 12 London Olympics are not considered the World Series, only the World Cup and the Intercontinental Cup).

Flander. Mendy, who was still a thigh-level presence at Burleigh last season, did not want to stay in the team but did not want to transfer this season, was loaned by Lu Wei to Ligue 2 promotion side Strasbourg, and there is a buyout clause, and the deal will become permanent if Strasbourg wants to.

Although Webster is from League Two, he will not underestimate him, after all, many people in the FC United team have played in the League Two, and sure enough, on the first day of training, Webster confirmed that he was not here to run the trick, although the height of 1.9 meters is not as strong as Tyrone and Pinnock, but his header and foot interception ability is still above Tyrone.

This gave Tarkovsky and Igan, who thought they were in the main position, a wake-up call, and the two sweated more on the training ground.

The departure of Klukas did not reduce FC United's midfield configuration, and the remaining five people were not convinced by anyone except for two veterans over 33 who were willing to serve as substitutes, but fortunately, this was just healthy competition within the team and did not produce personal conflicts.

Holihahn is the role of Big Brother and Good Guy, Grimes and McGim are low-key, Hayden will not cause any trouble when he first arrives, and the only thorn Madison is still young and is taught by Lu Wei.

FC United's forward line can be said to be the youngest in the English professional league system, except for Hogan, who is 92, the other four are all post-95s, and there is also a post-00s young player promoted from the youth team.

Lu Wei in the tactical plan is also to watch the food policy, according to the characteristics of the opponent to arrange their own players on the field, except for the goalkeeper and two full-backs, no one can ensure their main position, and Zinchenko and Drette are not soft persimmons, still have the strength of the main player, Robertson and Taphnir as long as the state is not good, Lu Wei will put the two on the bench at any time.

The strength of the team has obviously declined in the new season, but Lu Wei believes that the overall strength of the team is stronger than last season, if the main squad of FC United last season was the level of the mid-table team of the Premier League, but the substitute lineup was only the level of the Championship relegation. But this season is different, there is almost no main force and substitute, the first team of 24 people casually paired with a set of 11-man starting list has the strength of the top three in the Championship.

Last season, the team's ceiling was high, but the lower limit was also relatively low, and the new season, although the ceiling is low, the lower limit is much higher.

All thanks to Newton Heath's advanced training environment and excellent coaching staff, of course, more importantly, the self-motivation and professionalism of the young players, 20-year-old Jarrod. Bowen sat on the bench for FC United for three years and finally waited for his wings to soar.

Maddison, who is only a month older than Bowen, is also about to become the offensive core of the team after a year of studying with Michu. Sollot, who has proven himself in the Norwegian league, has adapted to the English league for half a season, and is also looking forward to future matches. Then there's Tarkovsky, whose mother has long recovered and been discharged from the hospital to return to a normal life, and the 23-year-old is in a period of transformation as a defender, playing for the team on his doorstep, allowing him to focus 100% of his energy on football.

And of course, don't forget the Red Rebel Army Commander Andrew. Robertson, who officially became the captain of the team this season, has an armband on his arm that is not only a symbol of strength, but also a symbol of the spirit of the Red Rebels, and if Lu Wei is the soul pillar of FC United, then Robertson is the heart of this team.

Most of the young players in the football team do have a big disadvantage, that is, inexperience, instability, but the advantage is also obvious, that is, they are improving every day every month of the year, for FC United with an average age of 23.5 years old in the first team, even if new players are not introduced, the team is stronger every season than the previous season, and football can win everything with a group of children.

Coupled with the failures experienced last season, the hearts of all FC United players are twisted into a rope, and they have only one goal, that is, the championship!
