After defeating Manchester City with three goals away, Manchester United has already scored 9 wins, 1 draw and 28 points in the standings, sitting high at the top of the Premier League standings, and even six more points than Manchester City, which ranked second!

With only ten rounds of the league, it is actually a huge gap to have the advantage of six points!

Manchester United's outstanding performance this season has also attracted unanimous praise from the football media across England...

"Murinho led the 'Red Devil' to return!"

"Marteau United finally chose the right person this time, and Mourinho is the one who is most suitable for Manchester United!"

"Marinho's coaching style has completely changed this season. After winning the UEFA Cup for Manchester United with defensive counterattack last season, the Portuguese has begun to recreate the new 'Red Devils' this season with strong offense!"

"Murinho's team building idea is very correct. He first defended and counterattacked, and then gradually changed his tactical style and strengthened the team's attack power through signings. This is why the 'Red Devils' reborn this season!"

"In 10 rounds of games, scoring 34 goals and conceding 5 goals, Manchester United has the strongest attack power in the season and the most stable defense at the Premier League team! So far, there has been no defeat! This is a true championship performance! Manchester United will be expected to recover in full this season!"

"When Manchester United's attack line exerts speed to the extreme, the power generated is really amazing. This is just like when Guardiola used the pass control to the extreme. When a team's characteristic reaches the extreme, a huge qualitative change will definitely occur, which will transform into a powerful combat power."

For Manchester United's game against Manchester City at the city stadium, all professionals unanimously gave the "Red Devils" a very high evaluation, because Mourinho really played something very new this time, the "pseudo-center" tactic with super fast speed. This tactic of pursuing offensive speed has not been used before, but no one has used this tactic to be as extreme as Manchester United.

While the outside world praised Manchester United, a large-scale event quietly started within Manchester United... Select the captain!

As Carrick gets older, he will only play at Manchester United until the end of this season, and then retire and change to become a coach. Therefore, the candidate for the new captain of Manchester United has reached the point where he must be selected.

Even if Carrick won't leave for the time being, the new captain must start working, which also means... the transfer of rights in the locker room.

Normally, Manchester United's captain candidates are elected by the previous captain organization. Whoever gets the most support will be the final captain candidate, but whether they can become a candidate... is another matter!

Because Manchester United has always attached importance to traditional youth training, players who have completed youth training at Manchester United have a very special position in the locker room, so they naturally have the right to choose a captain. For foreign players, they have to play at least three seasons at Manchester United before they can have the right to choose a candidate.

At this time, Pogba's "bloodline" played a key role. Even though he left Manchester United after completing youth training, he was a real "Red Devils". Even after completing youth training at Manchester United, he still made his Manchester United debut under Ferguson!

The day after defeating Manchester City away, Carrick personally summoned everyone in the team to his home for a "meeting"... Well, it's actually a party!

Only after eating and drinking enough did Carrick summon everyone to his large living room, and asked the family members to go out to play in the yard, and then began his own speech.

"Brothers, it's been my twelfth year since I came to Manchester United. During this period, I experienced the glory and trough of the team. Although I was not growing here, my soul has long been entangled with the Red Devils."

"Everyone knows that I will retire after the end of this season. I may continue to stay here as another person in the future, but I am no longer your comrade."

"I gathered everyone together today because I think it's time. According to the tradition of our team, we will select the new captain next. After discussing with Zlatan, he also gave up his position as deputy captain, so today we will select the two positions of future chief and deputy captain."

Carrick's words did not cause any surprises. The news had spread in the team before, and those who were interested had started to move early in the morning.

Carrick said: "I will make some demands for my successor, first of all, loyalty to the club! Secondly, it is age. Considering that the team needs a stable future, we hope that the boss and deputy captain this time will not be over 27 years old! In addition, in the position of the team, there should be a stable chance of playing so that the team can be dominated on the court. What remains are the previous conditions, either from Manchester United's youth training or transfer to Manchester United for three years."

"After screening, Zlatan and I made a list of candidates. I will read it later. Those who don't want to participate in the election can give up directly."

Smalling, Brinde, Rojo, De Gea, Phil Jones, Lingard, Pogba, Luke Shaw, Martial, Rashford, and... Yang Xiaozhuang!

These eleven people are currently eligible for the campaign, but some of these people immediately announced their giving up... Smalling, Brinder, Phil Jones, Lingard, and Martial cannot guarantee their playing time, so they chose to give up as soon as possible.

Then Yang Xiaozhuang, Rashford, and Lukesha also wisely chose to give up because they knew that they were too young and their prestige was not enough to convince the public.

At this time, only Rojo, De Gea and Pogba were left. Normally, Rojo has no hope, but this season's Argentine central defender's performance is becoming more and more stable. Although he cannot be compared with De Gea and Pogba, his main position is stable.

Choosing a captain...is not choosing a tactical core!

It is actually very suitable for the central defender to be the captain!

And Rojo really wants to give it a try, even if the hope is not great, once he succeeds, his reputation and status will be improved unprecedentedly, and he can even move into the ranks of first-class stars in one fell swoop.

Carrick asked the three people again, and after confirming that no one gave up, the voting election began to ease. The first thing was to choose the captain, choose one of the three people, and the final result was...Pogba was elected with more than half of the thirteen votes.

Although the French midfielder has not returned to Manchester United for a long time, he has worked very hard to show himself during this period. At least the Manchester United gang has been almost fully collected by him. With Martial's support... he was naturally elected.

The candidate for the vice captain was born among De Gea and Rojo, and De Gea, who had been playing for Manchester United for a longer time, eventually became the vice captain.

De Gea was the vice captain. If he was the captain, Carrick would object because the Spanish goalkeeper's heart... was not at Manchester United at all!
