Starting with saving Manchester United

I've been notified that it will be available for purchase starting tonight at midnight.

I'm not afraid to admit it, but I haven't dared to look at my book's collection and stats for a long time. But I can say with certainty that this will be the worst book I've ever written about football.

Even worse than the Red Rebels!

But this book took me the longest and required the most effort to prepare, from initial idea to completion.

Although my previous book, "The God of Football Starts with Passive Skills," didn't have a great initial subscription, its sales improved rapidly after it was released and it quickly became a featured book. However, halfway through writing it, my old problem resurfaced.

I messed it up!

Actually, after writing books for so many years, I know quite well what I'm good at writing and what I'm not good at writing.

But I can never get over that mental hurdle; I always think, "Let me try again, let me try again..."

I don't know how other authors create their works, but I'm the kind of author who has to put my own genuine feelings into my writing to express what I feel.

As I get older and online literature develops too fast, every time I read someone else's book, I feel both admiration and anxiety, always feeling that I am far behind and have fallen behind.

Therefore, I always feel immense pressure when starting a new book.

A few days ago, my blood pressure spiked to over 170, and I was completely dazed. The doctor said it was due to excessive anxiety...

Over the years, I have tried very hard to keep up with the pace of young people and keep up with the times, but ultimately my abilities are limited.

So, thank you all very much for your support and understanding along the way.

Please forgive any shortcomings in my writing! Thank you so much!

After learning about "God of Balls: Starting with Passive Skills," I thought, maybe I should go back to the path I'm more comfortable with.

Thus, this book, "Starting with Saving Manchester United," came into being.

Actually, this idea has been brewing in my mind for quite some time.

I first saw a question on Zhihu a few years ago: "Why has Manchester United declined year after year since Ferguson retired?"

I am not satisfied with many of the answers.

I've always felt that for wealthy clubs like Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich, assembling a competitive squad is actually the easiest thing to do. If these top teams continue to decline, it's definitely not a simple matter of money or personnel.

I wrote on and off until the middle of writing "The God of Football Starts with Passive Skills," when I thought about the new book and felt the urge to explore it again, so I started researching again.

After researching domestically, I used translation software to research overseas, hoping to present a more accurate picture of Manchester United in the 13/14 season.

Why did Moyes fail? Why has Manchester United been in such a long slump? What did Woodward do wrong?

The more I investigated, the more I realized that many things were not as I had originally thought.

Although they each had different stances, they were all trying their best to change things and save Manchester United. However, the harder they tried, the faster Manchester United declined.

The problem may lie in differing perspectives.

I hope to write these things down.

Unfortunately, my abilities are ultimately limited, and the writing flopped.

Regardless of how I've put in so much effort and prepared for so long, now that I've decided to publish it, I will definitely continue writing, no matter how it turns out.

It's been 16 years since "The Red Rebels." I can't guarantee whether my writing is good or not, or whether it suits everyone's taste. But I believe I have integrity and can be trusted to see things through to the end.

Finally, as always, I would like to make a request to everyone here.

If you find this book reasonably well-written, please show your support!

Thank you so much!
