"Will Manchester United be the champion of this year's league?"
The reporter asked Guardiola.
"It may or may not be, I don't know." Guardiola refused to answer.
...
"Will Manchester United be the champion of this year's league?"
The reporter asked Ferguson.
"I hope it is, but it is difficult. If it is, I will be very happy; if not, I believe that the time required to win the championship will not be too long. I am confident in my players." Ferguson smiled.
...
"Will Manchester United be the champion of this year's league?"
The reporter asked Conte.
"I still believe that the champion's initiative is in our hands." Conte expressionless.
...
Will Manchester United be the champion of this year's league?
After the Manchester Derby, this topic has become the most concerned topic of the entire British Isles, and even the world's fans, with the ascent of Manchester United.
Countless people, professionals or ordinary fans, have joined the discussion.
"Better than points, Manchester United lead Chelsea. They seem to have the initiative to win the championship. But in fact, the most promising team to win the league title is still Chelsea."
"The reason is very simple. Chelsea have the best schedule. And, the advantage is great."
The remarks of Zeiss Schulle Kunt (cxk), a senior French football columnist, represent the views of the vast majority of neutral groups.
There are three rounds left in the league.
Manchester United and Chelsea also have a make-up match.
Together, these two teams have the last four games.
After removing the last round of direct dialogue, Manchester United's opponents are Arsenal (May 7, away), Tottenham Hotspur (May 14, away), Southampton (May 17, league Round 28 of the make-up, away).
Three consecutive away games.
And the opponents are very strong.
The next schedule for Manchester United will be very difficult.
And Chelsea?
Compared to Manchester United, Chelsea's schedule is significantly easier.
Their next game will face Middlesbrough (May 8, home), West Bromwich (May 12, away), Watford (May 15, home).
Two masters, one guest, but also weak opponents.
Middlesbrough has been relegated. West Bromwich and Watford are both ranked in the top ten of the league, without any desire.
As long as Chelsea does not die, a three-game winning streak is a normal result.
And Arsenal, Tottenham and Southampton meet at Manchester United are all fighting for the European qualifications next season. Want to score points on these opponents, and still away, the difficulty of the game can be imagined.
and.
In addition to the great difference in the difficulty of the league schedule, there is also a clear difference in the playing environment between the two teams on the European schedule.
Chelsea has no European war.
Manchester United reached the semifinals of the Europa League.
After eliminating Belgium's Anderlecht, Manchester United met Spanish powerhouse Vigo Celta in the semifinals.
The semi-finals will come first and then the main event, respectively on May 4th and May 11th.
If Manchester United can eliminate Vigo Celta, they will have to face the winner between Ajax and Lyon on May 24, three days after the final round of the game against Chelsea.
The final of the Europa League can be put aside for the time being.
The match against Vigo Celta is in the league interval. In Chelsea's single-line battle, you still need to go to three league away games, as well as the European stadium, to deal with two fronts.
Chelsea's schedule advantage is very obvious.
"If the difficulty of Manchester United's next game is rated as 5 stars, then the Chelsea are only 1 star. Perhaps, 1 star is not reached." C.x.k commented.
In fact, Chelsea is not only a clear advantage in the schedule.
The Canadian journalist Chris of the Spanish Sports World pointed out in his report that with the injury of players such as Ibrahimovic, Manchester United's lineup is much thinner than Chelsea.
Chelsea's main players are basically in a healthy state.
Manchester United is not.
Luke Shaw, Ibrahimovic and Rojo had already bid farewell to this season in advance. Pogba and Jones were also affected by injuries and suspensions. The old players such as Carrick and Rooney were injured and stopped. Did not play a few complete games.
By the end of the league, half of Manchester United's main lineups are free of battle cards.
"If it wasn't for Chu's consecutive goals, Manchester United might have already fallen behind."
"But can one's efforts really win a league title for a team? I doubt it."
"Chu's continuous game, physical fitness will also have problems sooner or later. Moreover, his game state can not always be a red arrow. Coupled with the devil schedule at the last moment, hell-level opponents, Manchester United's chance of winning the league championship Chelsea, far behind them. "
...
Carrington.
In Ferguson ’s office.
Giggs sat opposite Ferguson.
"It seems that people are not optimistic that we can win the championship." Giggs glanced at Ferguson sitting opposite him.
Ferguson was silent for a while.
"To be honest, not only are they not optimistic, but I am not sure in my heart. What they say is an objective fact. There is no exaggeration or fiction."
"For us, wanting to win this season, it may be really too difficult."
Manpower is sometimes poor.
Ferguson sighed, he was helpless.
"Actually, no matter whether we can win the championship in the end, our performance this season has been good enough. I think our fans, our management, will also be proud of the results our team has achieved now." Feeling The teacher's helplessness, Giggs quickly comforted.
Ferguson smiled.
He shook his head. "In terms of the results, it may be so. But one season has now reached the point where the hope of winning the championship has been reversed, and it has reversed the competitors and came to the top of the list. If you can't win the championship in the end, it is definitely a lie to say that you are not disappointed. "
"Would you like to save strength in the Europa League and put more energy on the fight for the league title? The biggest disadvantage of our competition with Chelsea is our two-line battle." Giggs thought about it and made suggestions.
"Do not!"
Ferguson shook his head decisively.
"Most of the time the game is a match. If you lose your heart first, you will lose all. Giving up the European game seems to be beneficial to the league, but it may not be the case."
"What's more, we have reached the semi-finals. One step further is the final. We have no reason to give up!" He flatly rejected Giggs' proposal ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Giggs was silent.
"Okay. I will let the team medical team always pay attention to the physical condition of the players and try to keep each player in the best possible physical condition."
Giggs left in a hurry.
Looking at the back of the assistant leaving, Ferguson thought for a long time.
He went to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked over the training ground.
On the green training ground, the players dressed in training uniforms, sweating and training seriously.
They are preparing for the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals to be held tomorrow.
Ferguson's eyes were quickly attracted by a player on the training ground.
He looked at the player.
If the gaze is still.
