When the international match day ends, Manchester United ushers in the devil's schedule: in the next three weeks, Manchester United will usher in seven battles in the Premier League, League Cup and Champions League!

At 22:00 on September 30, Beijing time, in the 7th round of the Premier League, Manchester United faced Crystal Palace at home.
Three whole weeks, the whole tournament was a one-week double race!
With such intensive schedules, Ye Su had to conduct large-scale rotations. This is the key to Manchester United's great success in the past few seasons and is also an inevitable choice for Manchester United to fight in multiple lines in the new season.
……………………
At 7:30 pm on September 9th, Beijing time, the fourth round of the Premier League was the first, and it was also the focus of this round of Premier League: Blue Moon Manchester City sits at the Etihad Stadium and faces the Reds Liverpool!
In this game, Manchester City showed their fangs to the world: At the Etihad Stadium, Aguero took the lead in helping Manchester City break the deadlock, Jesus and Saneimen scored twice, and the Blue Moon slaughtered Liverpool 5:0 at home!
Originally, Liverpool could have avoided such a crushing defeat. The turning point happened in the 37th minute of the game. Mane stepped forward in the middle of the frontcourt and kicked Ederson who was attacking. The referee directly showed a red card and sent him off. The Reds had to fight with ten people in the next hour, and were no longer able to compete with the home team. He was eventually massacred by Manchester City for five goals!
After losing this game, Liverpool scored 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the first four rounds, and won 7 points. Manchester City continued to remain unbeaten, with 3 wins, 1 draw and 10 points, once again overwhelming Manchester United, which had not yet played, and rose to the top of the Premier League standings.
Three hours after the match between Manchester City and Liverpool, Manchester United played at Britannia Stadium.
Although he will usher in the first round of the Champions League group stage in 74 hours, Ye Su still lined up all the main lineups in this Premier League game. Goalkeepers Romero, Luke Shaw, Maguire, Van Dijk, Valencia form the four defenders, Kante, De Bruyne and Mata form the three midfielders, and Rooney, Harry Kane and Rashford are the teams on the front line.
As long as Manchester United remain unbeaten in this game, they will achieve 43 unbeaten in the league, surpassing Nottingham Forest to create 42 unbeaten games in 1977-1978, enjoying the honor of the second most unbeaten games in the top league in England, second only to the 49 unbeaten games created by the Gunners Arsenal!
In such a game, Ye Su will naturally not be satisfied with a draw. The competition with Manchester City in the new season will be extremely cruel. Facing a mid- and lower-level team like Stoke City, Manchester United must score three points!
……………………
However, at Britannia Stadium, Manchester United encountered tenacious resistance from Sky City.
In the 43rd minute, Manchester United's former player Darren Fletcher made a diagonal pass from the middle, and another Manchester United player Mam Diouf successfully counterattacked from the right and made a cross. Shubo Moting fell to the ground and shot into the net, Stoke City led Manchester United 1:0.
This is the first time Manchester United has fallen behind their opponents in the game in the game, and it is also their first goal conceded in the Premier League in the new season!
However, Manchester United quickly equalized the score.
In the first minute of stoppage time in the first half, Luke Shaw made a cross from the left corner, Maguire headed the ball in front, and Harry Kane headed the ball on Rashford's head and bounced into the upper right corner, and the score on the field became 1:1.
It took Manchester United only 2 minutes from falling behind to equalizing the score!
Ye Su's Manchester United showed their terrifying attack power, which made any opponent scared!
After the halftime break, Manchester United, who was unwilling to get only one draw, strengthened their offense.
In the 57th minute, Luke Shaw intercepted the ball from the left and broke through and passed the ball. De Bruyne made a wonderful pass in the middle. Harry Kane successfully counter-offside and was blocked by Stoke City goalkeeper Batlan. However, Harry Kane reacted quickly in the second time and shot to the upper right corner. Manchester United overtook Stoke City 2:1.
In the 62nd minute, Stoke City almost equalized the score. Pittels made a cross from the left, and Real Madrid's player Hesse, who was loaned to Stoke City, had a crossing shot, but Romero was incredibly lifted out of the crossbar.
Stoke City failed to equalize the score this time, but they quickly made up for their regrets. Shaqiri made a cross from the right corner, Shubo Moting headed the ball back and scored twice, Stoke City tied the score to 2:2.
……………………
After being equalized by Stoke City, Manchester United began to counterattack violently and launched a tide of offensive towards Stoke City's goal.
Ye Su gradually dispatched troops, Vardy replaced Rashford, and Bruno Fernandez replaced Mata.
Although Rashford was lucky enough to score a goal in this game, his performance was hard to say. He was too sticky and had poor shooting skills, which was his shortcomings in the game. Manchester United's many attacks were terminated from him.
Ye Su feels that at this stage, it is still a bit insufficient to make Rashford the main force of Manchester United. Faced with tough battles, the veteran Vardy should be more reliable.
Sure enough, after Valdy appeared on the court, he quickly showed his good form and strong ability to grasp opportunities. He first made a cross in the 81st minute of the game, helping Harry Kane score twice, and also allowed Manchester United to surpass the score with a score of 3:2. Then he received a pass from Rooney in the 88th minute of the game, broke through Stoke City's goal, and completely locked in the victory of the game.
In the end, Manchester United reversed the game 4-2 and continued to lead the Premier League standings with four consecutive victories.
After the game, Manchester United coach Ye Su said in an interview: "This is a difficult game. My players are different from before in the national team game. They are not in normal state. But we are still working hard. We are not here for 1 point, and the final result also makes me very satisfied. I don't care about the unbeaten record, it doesn't make much sense, only victory and 3 points are the most realistic!"
