The day before the Manchester derby began, Jose Mourinho drove his Audi to Carrington Training Base.

The English media reporters who had been waiting on both sides of the road immediately rushed up.

Watch these reporters desperately block in front of their cars.

Mourinho also reluctantly lowered his car window.

"I only have two minutes, so I can't be late for training as the head coach, right?"

With a wry smile, Mourinho gave reporters two minutes to ask questions.

"Mr Mourinho, Manchester United have recently won five consecutive league and Champions League wins, and are there any confidence in the face of Manchester City, who are unbeaten so far this season, to continue this momentum?

"Mr. Mourinho, I wonder if you think Su Yao has reached the strength of a top midfielder like De Bruyne and David Silva?"

"Mr Mourinho, is it true that you want to buy Harry Maguire from Leicester City in the winter transfer?"

Mourinho, who has dealt with the English media for so many years, certainly knows that any mistake in his words will be distorted beyond recognition by them the next day.

"Oh, De Bruyne and Silva are already among the top midfielders in the world today in my mind."

"Su Yao still has a long way to go if he wants to reach his level."

Mourinho did not brag for Su Yao.

For young players like this, you can't push them too high at once, otherwise it's easy to lose yourself.

There is no shortage of talent in football, but like Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, extremely talented and extremely self-disciplined is the biggest reason why they can stand at the height they are today.

'Manchester City's squad is the most competitive in Europe, they spend a lot of money every year to replenish players, and there is still a big gap between Manchester United and them in terms of squad depth.

"Manchester United's current squad does need a new centre-back, the current centre-back combination has too many injuries to last a full season, and as for whether or not to sign new players, that is Woodward's decision, the decision is not in my hands."

Mourinho also took this opportunity to borrow the mouth of the media to remind Manchester United's board and Woodward that it was time to buy himself a central defender!

After answering these questions, Mourinho closed the window and drove into the Carrington base to begin the final preparations before the derby.

On the day of the game.

The road leading to the Etihad Stadium in Manchester is already full of police officers maintaining order.

Whenever a derby comes, the road to the stadium and the bar where you can watch the game are often the hardest hit areas for football hooligans.

English football hooligans have a reputation for not only frequent troubles on the international arena, but also fights on the domestic arena.

At this time, in the Manchester United dressing room, Mourinho was making the final tactical arrangements.

"Herrera, you are responsible for keeping an eye on David Silva, you follow him wherever he goes, he just goes to the sidelines to drink water, you have to follow him, drink water with him!"

"Fred, you have to use your running to disrupt Manchester City's midfield, this De Bruyne is injured and can't play, it's a good opportunity for us to suppress Manchester City's midfield!"

"Shaw and Dalot, when you two attack, you must pay attention to the amplitude of the forward insertion, don't press too much, don't go up and you won't be able to come back, and you must be careful of the breakthrough of Mahrez and Sterling."

............

With the arrival of players, the entire Etihad Stadium has long since turned into a sea of blue, and Manchester City fans sing their anthem in unison.

"The blue moon

You see me standing alone

There are no dreams in the heart,

Nor my own love.

The blue moon

You know I'm right there

You listen to my prayers

For the people I really care about... "

Manchester City's anthem is called "Blue Moon", which is where the team's nickname comes from.

Although this song is tender, when all the fans sing together on the field, this soft song exudes an unexpected sense of pathos.

The grief and indignation that has been suppressed by Manchester United, the sworn enemy of the same city, for so many years, seems to be integrated into the song.

"It's a pretty good song."

The comma live broadcast room at this time.

In addition to the fans' old friends, Manchester United's famous Dong Fang Table and the new little fresh meat deer.

There is also a guest commentator who is familiar to everyone.
