Chapter 578 Where is the opponent?
"Looking forward to meeting Pep Guardiola's Barcelona team, it will be very different."

I don't know why, but Sun Yi was very excited when he heard that Guardiola had returned to the Barcelona team.

I also feel more motivated.

This makes Sun Yi very active in the next pre-season preparations.

Since there is no need to spend energy on signings, Sun Yi can focus more on the team's preparations.

This has allowed Southampton to prepare better than in previous seasons.

Although Sun Yi does not need to spend energy on recruiting, he still needs to spend some time on stabilizing people's hearts and retaining people.

As long as no one goes, he doesn't need to buy people to fill the space.Therefore, when he prevented others from poaching corners, he was still very careful.

And because Southampton has swept various championships for two consecutive seasons, the attraction is even far more than that of Real Madrid and Barcelona.This makes Southampton's players almost all willing to stay in the team.

And there were indeed people who spent a lot of money to poach corners, but none of them were poached.

Even Golovin and the others who couldn't become the absolute core didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.

Staying in the Southampton team is equivalent to all kinds of glory. If you get all kinds of championships and get soft hands, you will only leave if you are stupid.

Therefore, those who were tempted by the Southampton players ended up disappointed.

By the end of the entire pre-season preparations, the Southampton team did not produce any players they wanted to leave.No one was poached.

Under such circumstances, the Southampton team's lineup is extremely stable.

It can be said to be the most stable team in football throughout the summer transfer window.

In this regard, some people outside believe that the Southampton team may be holding back their big moves.Maybe, when the transfer window closes, there will be a big deal like Ronaldo or Felix.

There are also those who feel that Southampton's situation is good news for others.

Because such a Southampton team has been studied almost from head to toe.The same lineup means that others don't have to spend more energy on research.

Of course, there are also opponents who are desperate.

"This is the king lineup that has swept all opponents for two consecutive seasons. We really have no chance at all. This is really hopeless!"

No matter what the outside world thinks is good or bad.

Sun Yi himself was extremely satisfied.For the new season, I feel that the pressure will not be too great.

And soon, the opportunity came to test whether Sun Yi's feeling was correct.

The preparations are over, and there will be a Community Shield game before the start of the new Premier League season.

Since both the Premier League and the FA Cup were won by the Southampton team, the opponent of the Community Shield this time is the final opponent of the FA Cup last season, Leicester City.

Last season, Leicester City showed some signs of recovery, which made them invest more in the new season.

Therefore, there are unrealistic fantasies.

They want to have a good arm wrestle with Southampton in the Community Shield.

As a result, he was naturally woken up by the Southampton team very quickly.

The game only lasted 5 minutes, and the old and strong Ronaldo scored a world wave 30 meters away.

After being slapped by Ronaldo, the Leicester City team was overwhelmed.Then under the successive goals of Felix and Balotelli, they were taken away by Southampton in just the first half.

In this way, Southampton won the game calmly.And lifted his first championship of the new season.

"Win the championship again."

This is the third time to win the Community Shield Cup. Sun Yi is happy, but not so excited.

"I hope the next game will be a little more challenging."

After playing the Community Shield game, wait a few days for the start of the new Premier League season.

This time, Southampton were scheduled for the opener.

And the opponent is Arsenal.

This somewhat excited Sun Yi.Think it should be a bit challenging.

But after the real game started, Sun Yi was disappointed.

Arsenal, which has little money for military purchases, can be said to have a stable lineup second only to Southampton.

Originally, their strength could still bring some pressure to the Southampton team.

However, they are determined to reuse Prince Gong.

The result was that the game lost its suspense early on.

Only in the first half, Arsenal was beaten by Southampton.Southampton, who was playing away, scored four goals.

And Southampton's players on the field did not let Arsenal go.In the second half, four more goals were scored.

In the end, Arsenal could only be beaten 0:8 by Southampton.

Seeing such a result, Sun Yi was also very helpless, and even felt a little boring.

"I hope that Arsenal will still have a chance to compete for the top five this season!"

Such an Arsenal team can no longer be called an opponent.For the current Southampton team, at most it is a boy who gives away points.

The first two games of the new season were not very challenging.

It gave Sun Yi a feeling that he had played the game and cleared the level.

He can only put his hope on the important game of the next game.

Southampton won the UEFA Champions League last season and will play a UEFA Super Cup match against the Europa League champions.

The opponent is last season's Europa League champion Sevilla.

This is a strong team that has won the Europa League several times.Sun Yi hopes that they can bring some challenges.

He even hoped that this opponent would have the strength to beat Southampton.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed in the end.

Although the Sevilla team is also very strong, its strength is still not comparable to the La Liga duo.

With such strength, facing Southampton's Kings, they are basically unable to wrestle their wrists.

The result was that only until the end of the first half, the Sevilla team lost their ability to resist.

In the end, Southampton won the game 4:0.

Whether it is from this score or from the entire game process, Sevilla is not Southampton's opponent at all.

In this way, the Southampton team not only achieved three consecutive victories in the new season, but also won the second championship of the new season.

In addition, this is their defending European Super Cup.

This made the outside world couldn't help but marvel at the strength of the Southampton team.

"The Southampton team is still so strong! Look at this posture, they are rushing to sweep again."

"It's too strong! I have to say that the Southampton team is really the king's team."

Southampton are finally considered kings.Sun Yi was very happy.

But this joy did not last long.

"I won another championship. I am a little embarrassed to win it."

It is very common for Sun Yi to be a champion.Now, what he wants is an opponent.

"Where are the opponents? Where are you?"
