For the next month or so, Jiang Chen checked in on time every day, while maintaining a high level of training intensity without slack.

And his comprehensive ability value finally reached 65, barely passing.

In the team, Jiang Chen relied on his cheerful and lively personality to successfully mingle with his teammates.

In his free time, he even cooks some Chinese delicacies to share with everyone.

In short, everything is moving in a good direction.

During this period, there were three friendly matches, and Jiang Chen also got some opportunities to play.

But obviously, the friendly match is to grind the lineup and playing style of the new season, so Jiang Chen has always been a substitute, and each game leaves him only ten minutes to play.

Although Jiang Chen cherishes the opportunity to play and runs sparelessly every time, he can't perform miracles in every game.

In three friendly matches, Sheffield United lost all of them, even to a League Two team!

This naturally cast a shadow over the team's prospects for the new season, resulting in an extremely tense atmosphere in the team.

"Tomorrow is the last friendly game before the season."

"The team desperately needs a win to sweep away the gloom!!"

"Our opponent is the mighty Manchester United !!"

"Are you afraid?"

Coach Heggin Bertom's gaze swept across the crowd, but no one responded, much to his disappointment.

But just when everyone fell silent, two sonorous and powerful voices sounded in unison.

"Don't be afraid!"

All the players followed the prestige, and their eyes fell on Jiang Chen and Maguire.

It was they who broke the dull atmosphere in the conference room.

Maguire and Jiang Chen were both stunned, and then looked at each other, revealing a knowing smile.

Hechinboxum looked at the two little guys in front of him and was immediately relieved.

One is an attacker in the front, the other is a fixed needle in the backcourt, and tomorrow's starting lineup has already taken shape in his mind.

Anyway, it has already lost three games in a row, so what's the harm in overthrowing the current tactical system?

In the face of Manchester United, they seem to have lost the game, it is better to use it to boldly test new tactics, maybe there will be a windfall!

Don't break and don't stand, break and stand!

On the morning of the second day, manager Heggin Bertom announced his squad for the match against Manchester United.

No one expected that Heggin Patham would temporarily change 4-3-3, and Jiang Chen and Maguire appeared in the starting squad at the same time!

Maguire can understandably say that at the age of 19, he has already shown his potential as a big demon.

But what about Jiang Chen?

By what?

What qualifies him to start?

"Why? The formation we are familiar with is 4-4-2, not 4-3-3!!

"A temporary change of formation is a taboo for soldiers!"

The main striker, 35-year-old England striker Chris Well, expressed his dissatisfaction, his face gloomy as water.

Everyone's eyes converged on him, and everyone knew the reason.

At the moment, 24-year-old Welsh striker Ched Evans is out due to injury, and the two-forward combination is basically Chris Well and 29-year-old England striker Porter.

Due to the change of formation, Jiang Chen squeezed out his position, causing his heart to be very unbalanced.

"Chris Well, stay calm!"

"The first three fiasco said enough and we have to make a change!"

"Remember, data doesn't lie!"

"You didn't finish helping the team to a win, you should review yourself and not complain here!!"

"Got it?!"

Hegginbertom was furious, and his words showed no mercy.

Jiang Chen was also stunned, this was the first time he had seen the head coach so angry.

"Well, sir, I respect your decision!"

"But you will definitely pay for your stubbornness and prejudice!"

Although Cresswell took a step back, he was still not to be outdone and was not optimistic about Jiang Chen's performance.

Although no one mentioned him, invisibly, the pressure all fell on him.

As soon as Jiang Chen was about to say something, Hejingboxom's gaze came over.

"Don't think too much, prepare well!"

"I'm the one who makes the tactics, you just need to play the game with your heart, the rest has nothing to do with you!"

Although the tone was very domineering, Jiang Chen's heart warmed, why wasn't this another form of care?

Jiang Chen's heart was a little nervous, but he was ready to fight!

Manchester United, I'm coming!!

Time passed minute by minute, obviously only a few hours, but for Jiang Chen, it was like a year!

It was the first start of his career, although only in a friendly.

Under the leadership of the old lord, the Red Devils Manchester United have just won last season's league title.

The team is star-studded, with Wayne Rooney, Owen, Scholes Giggs, Park Ji-sung, Valencia, Nani, De Gea...

Unfortunately, he played very poorly in the Champions League and was scribbled out in the group stage.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the Bramo Lane Stadium was crowded, and a fierce game began!

The Premier League champions face the League One relegation horses, a match with little suspense.

In order to prepare for the new season, Manchester United's main team has played as much as possible, and has no intention of staying behind.

The four heavenly kings of darkness are all firsts.

On the forward line, Bebujin (Welbeck) is at the front, and the left and right wings are Nabuchuan (Nani) and Wabu (Valencia).

Carrick and Anderson are in midfield.

On the back line, there are five big players such as Smalling, Young (Ashley Young), Vidic , Ferdinand and Evra.

As for the goalkeeper position, it is Spain's future star De Gea.

As soon as the game began, the Reds firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, and the attack was like a tidal wave, overwhelming Sheffield United almost breathlessly.

As a left winger, Jiang Chen has almost recycled to the front of his own restricted area.

Welbeck and Nani played a delicate combination time and time again on the left flank, posing a huge threat to the Sheffield United goal.

Unfortunately, the score was not rewritten.

Near the end of the first half, Sheffield United defender Harry Maguire kicked a long pass and the ball fell at Jiang Chen's feet.

This is almost the first time Jiang Chen has won the ball in this game, and he has to face a world-class defender!

Smalling, Vidic, and Carrick stood in a triangular position and approached Jiang Chen.

As the team's flashpoint, Jiang Chen tried to pass the ball with the ball, but several attempts ended in failure.

In the face of this solid line of defense, it was difficult for Jiang Chen to make a difference.

The final whistle blew and both sides entered the dressing room with a 0-0 result.

"Welbeck, you must have been clubbing again last night, right? Otherwise, why is the shot so soft?!

"Nani, pass! Don't let the waves shoot, the opposite stands will be shot through by you! "

Valencia, your really sucks like! Can't you ask Ronaldo for advice on archery?!?!

"Ashley Young, pass the ball early before anyone is over!" Please, okay?

"Come on, it's just a League One team opposite! Not Real Madrid or Barca, don't look ahead! "

Pressure me on the attack in the second half!"

"Rooney, shoot me the opposite goal!"

In the Manchester United dressing room, coach Alex Ferguson chattered endlessly, venting his dissatisfaction.

In the dressing room of Sheffield United, the atmosphere is slightly dull.

For them, the 0:0 score is already an extraordinary performance, and it is not too much to ask for.

"Guys, hold on! Fight to steal another one!

"Jiang, don't retreat so deep in the second half, stay in the front court to play the speed advantage, and wait for the opportunity to counterattack!"

"Maguire, you have to head beautifully, pay attention to protect the second penalty!"

"Porter, if there is no chance in the front court, then retreat more to catch the ball and do a good protective catch!"

......

Soon, with the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began!
