Premier League: MU before 'treble'

MU was the first English club to achieve the magnificent 'treble' (winning the national championship, national cup and European C1 cup in the same season). Now, people play on words, somewhat painfully, when saying that MU is also on the verge of a treble.

N IMPORTANT MILESTONES

There are two ways to understand the concept of "treble" that is waiting for MU to conquer right now. Firstly, MU will complete a series of 3 consecutive wins if they take all 3 points against Brighton at Old Trafford in the late match of the Premier League tonight (23:30 on October 25).

It sounds simple at first. But for MU in the past few years, that would be a miracle. Winning 2 consecutive matches is already an important event (MU just did this, for the first time under coach Ruben Amorim). Since the beginning of last season, MU has never had the feeling of winning 3 consecutive matches in the Premier League. Moreover, Brighton, although not a famous name, is a "monster" for MU. They have won MU in 6/7 recent clashes in the Premier League, and won in the last 3 away trips to Old Trafford.

Talking about MU this season, we have to talk about the new attacking trio, especially the two wingers (or strikers) Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. They both scored for their former team when they met Brighton last season, and are in good form for MU at the moment. The hope of victory for the home team at Old Trafford in this round is not small.

The second understanding of the concept of "treble" that is inviting MU is much more important and difficult. It will be a successful revolution for coach Amorim if he leads MU to victory in all 3 upcoming matches: against Brighton, Nottingham Forest and Tottenham respectively. Last season, MU lost all 6 matches when meeting these teams in the Premier League (not to mention losing to Tottenham in the League Cup and Europa League). Never before has MU under Amorim been as prosperous and in good spirits as now. But let's wait and see if this MU can reach new milestones, as a declaration of returning to the top football ranks.

C WAIT TO SEE THE AMAZING YOUNG BROTHERS OF C HELSEA

In just one night, history was rewritten three times, as Chelsea crushed Ajax Amsterdam 5-1 in the recent Champions League match. First, Marc Guiu became the youngest player ever to score for Chelsea in the Champions League. Just a few dozen minutes later, Estevao broke Guiu's record. And when the match ended, Guiu dropped to number 3 on the list. Tyrique George, a month younger than Guiu, appeared on the scoreboard. And Chelsea became the first team in history to have three "teenagers" score in a Champions League match.

It was even more amazing that Chelsea's impressively youthful victory came against Ajax - the team that holds the record for being the youngest champions in Champions League history (in 1995). 10 players aged 21 or under appeared in the Chelsea squad that beat Ajax. In the Premier League this season, Chelsea has the lowest average starting lineup (24 years, 116 days). No player over 28 has ever played under coach Enzo Maresca. Tonight, this wonderful young force will meet Sunderland at 9pm. Although newly promoted, Sunderland are flying high, only 2 points behind second-placed Manchester City after 8 rounds. Therefore, the match will be very attractive.

Chelsea are in good form with four straight wins in all competitions. They could well be on their way to a third straight Premier League win, their first under Maresca.
