Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

The next day, Lu Wei walked into the Newton Heath base with a bright look, and the warm greeting caught Mr. Matthew Ross, who was guarding the gate of the base, a little caught off guard, usually seeing the chairman is expressionless, how has he changed today.

Lu Wei's mental form is at its peak, FC United's players are also in very good form, with just five days to go before the start of the league, and their first round opponent is the once illustrious Nottingham Forest.

Nottingham Forest did not have a good result last season, only 17th, and manager Doug Friedman also left class midway through the season, bringing in former Ligue 1 Rennes manager Philippe Montagnier this summer in the hope that the Frenchman can use his top-flight coaching experience to help Nottingham Forest return to the Premier League.

However, in Lu Wei's impression, the Frenchman's coaching performance is not as good as his predecessor, Nottingham Forest has barely completed relegation every year until Steven. Cooper's appointment has allowed Nottingham Forest to return to the Premier League for the first time in 23 years.

Although it is the third and seventeenth in the league last season, but the media are not optimistic about FC United, in terms of player lineup, Nottingham Forest in the summer transfer window although mainly on loan, unlike the wealthy FC United are their own player training, but loan also has the advantage of loan, that is, players are instant combat power, strength is not a problem, the only thing to worry about is the team run-in problem.

In this regard, the media very much believes in Montagnier's coaching ability, having led Real Sociedad and Rennes, years of top-flight coaching experience will definitely allow him to discipline these players, and although Lu Wei has just obtained the UEFA Pro level coaching certificate, his age is one of the main reasons why people doubt him.

Another point is that he is also the president of the club, many fans have scorned Lu Wei's practice of concurrently serving as the head coach of the team, and many people think that Lu Wei is just putting on a show, and most fans know that the president of a football club has a lot of things to take care of and has no time to focus on coaching the team.

Coupled with the loss of four main players, FC United's transfer moves this summer ranked first in the Championship, although the net transfer fee of nearly 50 million pounds is even higher than that of Premier League teams, but Lu Wei only spent one-tenth of the player to buy players, which made countless fans think that Lu Wei put the money into his own pocket.

When Lu Wei was asked by a reporter about this, he laughed crazy.

"I said this journalist friend, you are from an entertainment newspaper, we are a membership-based club, all income is managed by the club, it will not be attributed to individuals, I advise you to check the information before writing an article."

Lu Wei's words also caused other reporters to laugh, like this kind of layman reporter only knows to rub the heat and rub the topic, there is no bottom line of their own.

"Our signings and targets were the result of unanimous discussions among our coaching staff, and they were approved at the General Assembly, and part of the transfer income we took out to refurbish the red course, and the rest of our club plans to invest in the upgraded signings, which can be spent next year, so you don't have to worry about the money going into my hands."

A very structured and confident answer, since Lu Wei became the club's president, the word promotion has never left his mouth, people don't know where his confidence comes from, and only Red Rebel fans believe him so hard.

Lu Wei announced another message at yesterday's pre-match press conference that he will permanently retire the team's number 12 shirt.

"The shirt belongs to all the Reds fans, they are the twelfth man on the Red Court forever, the fans will always be the family of FC United, and we will not forget your support and love for the team over the years."

There was also an episode on the shirt number, due to Mi Chu's departure, the team's No. 10 jersey was empty, but no one offered to wear this number that symbolized the core of the midfield, and Lu Wei asked several midfielders and resigned.

Baird, Jenas and Holihaan were not interested in No. 10, neither Grames nor McGim wanted to be so high-profile, and Hayden was a defensive back and didn't want to wear a No. 10. Madison hesitated for a moment but refused, believing that he was not worthy of the number now.

The strikers liked their numbers and didn't want to change their shirts, so the number 10 shirt could only be vacant at FC United this season.

Before the start of the Championship, a number of media outlets offered odds for Championship promotion, with relegated Newcastle United and Aston Villa in the top two being relegated Newcastle United and Aston Villa, and then Derby County, who lost to Hull City in the promotion play-off final last season, and they also beat relegated Norwich City in odds.

Media predictors FC United will be in 12th place at the end of the season, one place below Nottingham Forest. After seeing this report, Lu Wei couldn't understand why these people questioned us, questioned my coaching ability, questioned the strength of our players, questioned the operation of our club.

Is it our FC United not strong enough? Is it our FC United who are not good enough? Or are we too strong, you don't recognize this alternative team in English football, don't believe that we can defeat you, well, since you are not convinced, then subdue you!

Last season's defeat was just a test for us, and this season I will show you the true horror of the Red Rebels.

The victorious and defeated soldiers have unexpected family affairs, and it is a man who bears shame and shame.

The children of Koto are many talents, and it is unknown whether they will make a comeback.
