Chapter 572 I will guard this gate! (page 12)
Shen Hao, who returned from North America, made headlines on Fleet Street again.
Perhaps it's because the summer transfer market is a little slow.
There really aren't any big deals worth Fleet Street's expectations.
It was Shen Hao who was photographed when he was out on the street.
Although he has not lost weight like a lightning bolt, he has returned to the image of a well-proportioned, handsome and cool handsome man.
In just over a month, Shen Hao lost a lot of weight and was able to show off his eight-pack abs even when he took off his shirt.
Leeds United's summer preparations have reached the final stage.
Rose Cup.
This year they invited three teams: Portimao, Dinamo Zagreb, and Copenhagen.
Although the opponent is not strong enough, at least the investment in the game is absolutely satisfactory.
And it will also help Leeds United promote the market.
Leeds United's clash with Portimão was described by Fleet Street as a "father and son game".
The meeting between Shen Hao and Shen Guoqiang on the court became a good story.
Not surprisingly, Leeds United won all three games in the Rose Cup.
What makes their changes obvious to the outside world is that the young substitute players last season have made great progress.
At the beginning of August, Leeds United took a new season family photo before going to the Community Shield.
Their lineup is leaner than last year.
Two people left and one came.

...
On the eve of the Community Shield.
Shen Hao, who has successfully lost weight, attended the pre-match press conference with his usual chic attitude.
Major media from Fleet Street gathered at the Thorpe Arch training base.
They rushed to ask questions to Shen Hao.
Shen Hao first summarized the summer transfers that the outside world is most concerned about.
"We will not sign for the sake of signing. If you think Leeds United is not doing well enough, then I am willing to sincerely listen to your suggestions. Come on, tell me a few names that Leeds United can refer to for signings."
The reporters at the scene looked at each other, some hesitated to speak, and finally sighed.
Leeds United has won the Champions League for five consecutive years. There is indeed room for improvement in the lineup, but it is not much and it is not obvious.
To improve in a targeted manner, only world-class stars can do it.
But...are world-class stars so easy to buy?
Price but no market!
This is actually the main reason why the major European giants have so little business this season.
Looking at the European giants, Barcelona's introduction of Cesc Fabregas has the greatest effect.
But if Fabregas hadn't written the word "loyalty" on his face, could Barcelona have taken away the Arsenal captain so easily?
Fleet Street journalists immediately turned the conversation to the upcoming Community Shield.
Leeds United's opponent is Manchester City, who won the FA Cup last season.
Manchester City stole the spotlight in the summer.
In other words, Manchester City has been the protagonist in the past few transfer windows.
Shen Hao spoke highly of Manchester City's signings.
"Manchester City has completed the transformation of its lineup with crazy investment in several transfer windows. They have become an unstoppable new force in the Premier League. In the past two years, people have expected Manchester City to participate in the championship competition. Now, Manchester City There is no excuse to escape.”
Leeds United won six consecutive Premier League titles.
People's minds change.
But Leeds United themselves don't pull the ball.
It is difficult to raise the outside world's expectations for traditional championship teams.
In the end, we can only hope that the impact of emerging forces can break the pattern dominated by Leeds United.
Manchester City has strengthened its lineup year after year, even though it is still unable to compare with Leeds United.
But Manchester City's determination to win the championship should definitely far exceed that of Manchester United, Chelsea and other teams, and may even exceed Leeds United.
Because they don't have a championship.
Mancini was also irritated by the media before the game, and Manchester City executives did not give him much time.
With this lineup in hand, can’t we compete for the championship?
Mancini said before the game: "Winning the Premier League championship is the most difficult challenge in the world, but Manchester City will have the courage to try. We must attack the championship!"
Shout out!
The championship slogan is shouted!
Fleet Street was thrilling and nearly climaxing.
This makes this season's Community Shield contest a high-profile event.
Rather than being more like Leeds United versus Chelsea or Manchester United, as in the past, Arsenal's pre-match warm-up.
8 month 8 day.
London, new Wembley Stadium.
On a sunny afternoon, Leeds United and Manchester City met as scheduled.
Fans who had been pent-up during the offseason also unleashed their enthusiasm and filled the stadium with excitement.
Leeds United sent all its main players to the field.
The lineup is luxurious and the stars are dazzling.
Manchester City's starting lineup is remarkable.
Goalkeeper: Pantilimon.
Defenders: Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Kolarov.
Midfielder: Milner, David Silva, De Jong.
Forwards: Adam Johnson, Aguero, Nasri.
Although generals like Barry and Yaya Toure are missing, the impact on strength will not be too great.
Shen Hao glanced at Manchester City's bench with some curiosity.
Joe Hart was put on the bench.
Pantilimon, the starting goalkeeper, really doesn't have anything special about him.
