Chapter 299 Both humans and ghosts are showing off, only Manchester United is being beaten!

"The Sun's face seems to have been swollen."

In the "Sky Sports" studio, host Lineker was analyzing the Premier League match between Chelsea and Burnley.

"This was the most disparate first half game in the first round of the Premier League, and it looks like it will also be the most disparate final score."

"The Sun said that Pan Yi might not be able to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League, and would also be taught a lesson by the tough playing style of the mid- and lower-tier teams in the Premier League, but now it seems that this is not the case at all."

"Whether it is technically or in terms of fighting, Chelsea has shown superior strength. I can't see Burnley having any hope of a comeback. No, the hope of scoring a goal is very slim."

"Gary, I remember you didn't like this new Chelsea very well before the game. What do you think now?"

At the end of the day, Lineker turned the question to Gary Neville, who was sitting opposite him.

Also attending the show today were their old friends, fellow Manchester United star Roy Keane, Liverpool star Jamie Carragher, Chelsea star Gianfranco Zola, and the famous former England striker

Alan Shearer.

Facing Lineker's question, Neville showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, but he still answered:

"The results of such a game are actually predictable."

"Eden Hazard alone in the Chelsea team is worth as much as the entire Burnley team, and his weekly salary is almost the same as the total of all Burnley first-team players."

"So, this is an unfair contest. Pan Yi won such a contest, but there is nothing to brag about."

But at this moment, Neville's good friend Carragher suddenly said:

"Falcao's weekly salary is 350,000 euros."

"Di Maria's weekly salary is 325,000 euros, and Wayne Rooney also earns the same amount."

"Robin Van Persie's weekly salary is 275,000 euros... Yes, these people are all Manchester United players, and their weekly salary is higher than Hazard's 250,000 euros."

"In Swansea's team, those with the highest weekly salary are their French forward Buffetibis Gomi, Icelandic midfielder Sigurdsson, and Polish goalkeeper Fabianski, all of whom are almost five years old.

Around 10,000 euros.”

"but……"

Carragher didn't finish his sentence.

But everyone understood what he was going to say.

In a game earlier in the first round of the Premier League, Manchester United lost to Swansea 1:2 at home!

In this game, Manchester United's new coach Louis van Gaal also used the 343 formation he is good at, but his performance was stumbling and did not achieve good results.

Swansea turned the tables and South Korean midfielder Ki Sung-yoon opened the scoring in the 28th minute.

In the 53rd minute of the second half, Manchester United captain Rooney pulled a goal back, but in the 72nd minute, Swansea's "Icelandic sniper" Sigurdsson sealed the victory with a long shot.

In the end, Manchester United, who were ten times worth their opponents, swallowed the bitter fruit of defeat at home at Old Trafford and got off to a bad start to the season.

And Carragher just compared the weekly wages of some Manchester United players with those of Swansea players, which is to tell Gary Neville that although sometimes worth and weekly wages can explain some problems, they cannot explain all situations.

Also using the strong to defeat the weak, Pan Yi's Chelsea can play with ease in the away game, but Manchester United cannot beat Swansea at home...

Of course, Carragher now dares to show his face and output because Liverpool also won the first round. They defeated the "Saints" Southampton at home with the goals of Sturridge and Sterling.

, got a good start to the season.

In addition, several other strong teams also achieved victories.

After being rejected by Pan Yi, Tottenham chose Argentinian Pochettino to coach. He lived up to expectations and defeated the "Hammer Gang" West Ham United 1:0 in the first round of the game. Central defender Dier

Kill the opponent in the 90th minute.

Manchester City, who was also rejected by Pan Yi, continued to use Chilean engineer Pellegrini as head coach. They also defeated Newcastle United 2:0, with David Silva and Aguero shining, each scoring a goal.

Finally, there is Arsenal. The Arsenal still performed steadily under the leadership of coach Wenger. After winning the Community Shield, they defeated Crystal Palace 2:1 in the first round of the Premier League. The goals of Koscielny and Ramsey ensured

won this victory.

That is to say...

After many Premier League games in the first round ended, "Both people and ghosts are showing off, only Manchester United is getting beaten!"

In response to Carragher's ridicule, Neville still forcefully explained:

"This is only the first game. Perhaps Van Gaal has not fully instilled his tactical concepts into the players."

"Coupled with the impact of injuries, Falcao and Robin van Persie were unable to play in the first game, which also affected Manchester United's strength to a certain extent."

"Swansea's performance is indeed good, and luck is on their side. I dare say that Sigurdsson's long shot may not be able to hit even if he shoots all the shots..."

In response, Carragher laughed and said: "But that's not what you said about Chelsea just now."

At this time, Roy Keane quickly came out to relieve Neville: "Let's go back to this game. Now we have entered the second half of the game, and Chelsea still leads Burnley with 3 goals. This game should not be

It’s suspenseful.”

At the same time, this is actually saving yourself from trouble.

As a famous Manchester United player, Roy Keane would also feel embarrassed if the topic among the guests kept lingering on Manchester United's first-round loss.

After all, before the start of the season, he and Neville also swore that Manchester United would definitely reverse their decline and return to the championship this season under the leadership of Van Gaal!

"Yes, Chelsea played really well in this half." Lineker didn't want to listen to their bickering, so he pulled up the first half's data panel and put it on the big screen.

The ball possession rate was 75% to 25%, the shooting rate was 12 to 1, and the number of corner kicks was 8:1. No matter which data, Chelsea was crushing.

"I think the football Chelsea showed in this half of the game is very indicative of Pan Yi's level." Lineker continued, "His 343 formation is even better than when he played in Hamburg.

It is smoother and more controlled. Of course, this may also be the reason why he chose to play 343 at Chelsea, because he knows that he needs to fight a lot of tough battles like today, and 343 can be handled more flexibly."

Alan Shearer also agreed with Lineker's statement, and then he also put forward his own additional opinions.

"Although Chelsea's center Lukaku wasted some opportunities today, his role in the frontcourt was outstanding."

"We saw a lot of games when he was on loan at Everton last season, but none of them were as comprehensive as his performance today."

"In Coach Pan Yi's set of 343, Lukaku can not only fight for the top in the penalty area, but also retreat to play the ball, or cooperate with teammates who intervene."

"At this point, Pan Yi may have really activated Lukaku and made the Belgian youngster realize that he can do more on the court. This may be why Pan Yi insists on recalling Lukaku to the first team this season.

Reason."

"Of course, the two wingers on both sides of Lukaku, including the two wing-backs, also performed extremely well. Hazard and Bernard Silva each scored a goal, which also proved their respective strengths.

"

It can be seen that Alan Shearer is full of praise for the performance of Chelsea's forward.

As the top scorer in the history of the Premier League and a famous forward who has won the Premier League top scorer twice, Alan Shearer's evaluation is obviously very valuable and has great reference significance.

Gary Neville said sourly: "This is only the first game, maybe there is some luck. Some forwards..."

Before he finished speaking, Lukaku on the broadcast screen received a long pass from Marcos Alonso and directly hit the goal with his head, changing the score to 0:4.

Gary Neville immediately changed his tune and said: "Chelsea's forwards may have performed really well in this game, but this has something to do with the opponent's weak strength."

"Although Chelsea's schedule this season is very good and they don't have any strong opponents in the first four rounds, I still feel that except for Burnley, it will be difficult for them to take advantage of their future opponents."

"Let's talk about their opponents in the next round. Leicester City is the champion of the British Championship, and they are much stronger than Burnley!"

"In the first round, Leicester City drew with last season's fifth-place Everton, showing great strength."

"Whether it is goalkeeper Schmeichel, defender captain Morgan, midfielders Andy King and Drinkwater, or forward Mahrez, as well as the newly purchased Hamburg player Vardy! The abilities of these players are really

It's not something Burnley can compare to."

"So, unless Chelsea can win against Leicester City in the next round, I still think their win over Burnley is not that easy to brag about!..."

Alan Shearer and Lineker looked at each other with helpless expressions in their eyes.

"Then, let's make a bet." Zola, who had been sitting aside and had been silent, couldn't bear Neville's nonsense and suddenly said to Neville.

This diminutive former Italian striker is the greatest player in Chelsea history.

Before Chelsea received Roman Abramovich's investment and was still a mid-range team, Zola led Chelsea to win two FA Cups and a European Cup Winners' Cup. He was also elected as England's FWA Footballer of the Year.

Inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame.

And one thing that can prove his important status in Chelsea Club is that after he retired, Chelsea's No. 25 jersey was permanently sealed!

Zola obviously also loves Chelsea deeply. After Pan Yi joined the team, he was extremely excited because he believed that Pan Yi could lead Chelsea to glory!

And today's first game led by Pan Yi also proved this point.

But Neville kept saying here that Chelsea was just lucky or their opponents were weak...Zola finally couldn't help it anymore.

"What are you betting on?" Neville glanced at Zola.

"Just bet on Chelsea's next game." Zola said confidently, "If Chelsea wins Leicester City, then you have to treat all of us here to dinner..."

"How can anything be so cheap?" Neville interrupted Zola, "In a football match, anything can happen. If Chelsea's bad luck wins again, where can I explain it?"

Zola glared: "Didn't you say that Chelsea can't beat Leicester City?"

"You can bet, but unless it is..." Neville said while checking Chelsea's schedule, and then said, "Unless they can maintain five rounds... no, seven rounds without defeat, I will admit defeat!"

Neville was so confident in speaking this time because he saw that Chelsea's opponent in the fifth round will be the last Premier League champion Manchester City, and their opponent in the seventh round will be Arsenal, who just won the Community Shield.
