The Red Devils' revival starts with retaining Mourinho

On the morning of July 8, the sun gently sprinkled outside the Manchester United Club's Carrington training base, as if covering this place with countless glory and dreams with a layer of golden veil. However, compared with the tranquility of the past, it became lively early today. A group of people have gathered in front of the gate of the training base. The media reporters are like soldiers ready for battle, carrying all kinds of photographic equipment, with keenness and expectation in their eyes. They occupy various advantageous positions just to capture the arrival of the players at the first time, and they are thinking about how to dig out exclusive news to make their reports unique among many media and attract the attention of fans.

In addition to reporters, many enthusiastic fans also gathered here. They came here early, with enthusiastic smiles on their faces and holding homemade cheering cards in their hands. On them, there were encouraging words for their beloved players written in colorful handwriting, such as "Come on Manchester United, go for the new season" and "Create more glory", etc. They were looking forward to seeing their idols up close. Even if they just waved and said hello, it would be enough to make them excited for a long time.

Inside the training base, the members of the coaching team were also making the final and detailed preparations for the first full-staff training of the new season in an orderly manner. The whole base was filled with an atmosphere of tension and expectation.

Head coach Mourinho was still dressed in his iconic outfit. The black long windbreaker made him look particularly calm and full of aura. He took firm and powerful steps, shuttled between the various training areas, and his deep eyes revealed concentration and seriousness, as if he was a general who was about to command thousands of troops to go to war, examining every detail of the "battlefield" that was about to start the battle.

Mourinho first came to the data center. At this time, Giovanni Serra, the head of the data center, was directing the staff to debug various professional testing instruments to ensure the accuracy of the players' physical monitoring. Mourinho walked forward and asked softly: "Giovanni, is everything ready? Today's physical monitoring data is very critical. It allows us to clearly know the physical condition of the players after the holiday, and to formulate a more appropriate training plan for the future." Giovanni Serra pushed his glasses and responded seriously: "Jose, don't worry, everything is ready. All instruments have been calibrated to ensure that the players' various sports indicators and sports functions can be accurately monitored."

At the same time, in the physical training area, physical coach Rui Faria and physical trainer Carlos Larin were directing the staff to place a wide range of physical training equipment. From dumbbells of different weights to elastic bands of various specifications, from agility ladders for agility training to treadmills that simulate sprints, etc., everything is available. While directing the placement, Rui Faria discussed with Carlos Larin: "Today's physical training intensity must be well controlled. After all, this is the first day. The intensity cannot be too high at once for the players to bear, but there must be enough volume so that they can get back to the state and rhythm of the game as soon as possible." Carlos Larin nodded in agreement, and took up the detailed training schedule in his hand, carefully introducing the intention and expected effect of each arrangement to Rui Faria.

In the exclusive field for goalkeeper training, goalkeeper coaches Silvino Rulo and Emilio Alves were also busy. They were concentrating on debugging the ejection device specially used for goalkeeper training, carefully adjusting different angles and ball speed gears, and repeatedly checking the training balls of various colors and specifications placed aside to ensure that their air pressure and other aspects met the training requirements. Silvino Rulo looked up and said to Emilio Alves: "We have to observe the state of the goalkeepers today. I don't know if they have maintained good training during the holidays. Through this first training, we must have an idea in our minds, so that we can strengthen their weak links in a targeted manner in the future." Emilio Alves responded: "Yes, the goalkeepers are the last solid line of defense for our defense. Their state is too important to the entire team. We must strictly require them later."

On the other side, assistant coach Scholes came to the tactical board. He stood there with his hands folded across his chest, looking intently at some of the team's tactical arrangements on the tactical board last season, thinking about the adjustments and optimizations that may be needed in the new season. He frowned slightly from time to time, and nodded thoughtfully from time to time. He was already thinking about many tactical matters that he would discuss with the head coach and the players later.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, the players began to drive to the training base one after another.The first to appear was the captain David De Gea, whose low-key black car slowly drove into the parking lot, and the window glass reflected a faint luster in the sun. David De Gea wore sunglasses, and his whole person exuded a calm temperament. The sharp-eyed fans immediately recognized that it was De Gea's car, and instantly burst into cheers: "De Gea! De Gea!" The voices echoed in the sky outside the training base.

David De Gea heard the call, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a friendly smile. After he parked the car, he pushed open the door and walked down, straightened his collar, and walked towards the fans. Seeing this, the fans immediately surrounded him excitedly, and stretched out their hands, some holding pens and notebooks, and some holding mobile phones, eager to get close to him.

A young fan blushed and said with a little nervousness, "De Gea, I... I like you so much, can you sign an autograph for me?" David De Gea looked at his cute and nervous appearance, nodded with a smile, took the notebook and pen, signed his name seriously, and asked softly: "How old are you, little guy?" The little fan quickly replied: "I'm ten years old, I want to be a goalkeeper as good as you in the future!" David De Gea gently touched his head and encouraged: "Then you have to practice well, come on." The surrounding fans saw this scene and cheered again, and some took the opportunity to record this precious moment with their mobile phones.

Say goodbye to the fans and drive to the parking lot to park the car. David De Gea first straightened his collar, then politely and modestly greeted the familiar staff at the door, and then walked towards the data center at a leisurely pace. He knew very well that the journey of the new season officially kicked off from this moment of physical monitoring. As the captain of the team, he must set an example and meet the upcoming training and challenges in the best condition.

Then, Marcus Rashford's car also appeared in everyone's sight. As soon as his energetic figure appeared, the enthusiasm of the fans was rekindled, and the shouts became more enthusiastic: "Rashford! Rashford!" Rashford heard the shouts, his face was filled with a warm smile, he quickly got out of the car, strode towards the fans, and opened his arms as he walked, as if to welcome old friends who had been reunited after a long absence.

The fans swarmed forward, talking about all kinds of praise and encouragement. An older fan shouted loudly: "Rashford, you have to score more goals in the new season and lead our Manchester United!" Marcus Rashford nodded vigorously and responded: "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely do my best!" As he said that, he took the initiative to high-five the fans around him one by one. The loud high-fives and everyone's laughter intertwined, making the atmosphere on the scene even more heated.

At this time, a female fan held up a carefully made portrait of Marcus Rashford and said timidly: "Rashford, I drew your portrait, can you sign it for me?" Marcus Rashford took the portrait with surprise, looked at it carefully, and exclaimed: "Wow, it's a great painting!" Then he signed his name readily and took a photo with the female fan. The female fan was so excited that her eyes were a little wet and she kept saying "thank you".

The arrival of Erling Haaland pushed the atmosphere on the scene to a climax. As soon as his tall and strong figure appeared, the fans burst into deafening cheers as if they were under a spell: "Haaland! Haaland!" Erling Haaland was infected by the enthusiastic scene, with a bright smile on his face. He waved his hands vigorously and walked towards the fans.

The fans surrounded him in three layers, and everyone was vying to say a few words to him. A little boy was squeezed in the crowd, and he tried to stick his head out and shouted loudly: "Haaland, your goal last season was so cool. I want to see you score more goals in the new season!" Erling Haaland laughed heartily and responded: "Haha, thank you, I will work hard and strive to score more and more beautiful goals!" As he said, he deliberately bent down and hugged the little boy. Seeing this, the surrounding fans screamed and cheered again, and shouted for the people next to them to help take pictures, wanting to record this unforgettable moment.

Not far away, youth player Alejandro Ganaccio also got out of his parents' car. Although he was still a young player, many fans who knew him greeted him enthusiastically. Alejandro Ganaccio saw everyone with a look of surprise on his face. He walked towards the fans with a little shyness.A fan smiled and said to him: "Ganacho, you have great potential. You will definitely shine in Manchester United in the future. We are all optimistic about you!" Alejandro Ganajao scratched his head and said gratefully: "Thank you for your support. I will continue to work hard and will not let you down!" As he said that, he also patiently signed for the fans, with a firm look and a vision for the future in his eyes.

Then, Dean Henderson also arrived. The young man was full of vigor. He carried the big training bag and walked briskly. He was humming a popular football cheering song. As he walked, he joked with the staff around him. Obviously, he was full of infinite expectations for the new season. He was eager to show the results of his hard training during the holidays in today's training, so that the coaches could see his progress, strive to get more opportunities to play in the new season, and truly prove his strength on the court.

Another goalkeeper, Lee Grant, got out of the car slowly and leisurely. He was like an experienced elder brother with a calm demeanor. He greeted people he knew warmly and shared some interesting stories from the holidays. At the same time, he was always ready to contribute to the team with his years of experience.
