Chinese football fans are destined to suffer high-price Premier League matches for a couple of years in future. Nevertheless, the opening was still attractive for them last weekend, when their heroes began a procession for another year.

In the first round, Hleb and Gerrard salvaged Arsenal & Liverpool, when Chelsea also got 3 points without doubt. The most four popular teams didn’t disappoint their fans except for Man Utd, which was tied 0-0 by Reading, from which you can hardly point out a famous footballer.

The lone striker, Wayne Rooney was hurt badly on 38 min, which gave Red Devils a big shock. Having sold Smith and Rosi, leaving Dong to the backup team, Sir Ferguson had no Forward when Saha and Tevez who just solved the complication of his contract were still not able to play. In despair, he sent O’shea to be the striker. The Irish, however, obviously lacked of inspiration to score. Man Utd had to accept the tie when her two wings, Evra & C. Ronaldo were challenged badly and couldn’t support the striker effectively. Football comments that Ferguson was defeated by his inflexible strategy, and the Champion last season has a blue beginning in the August.

Possessing the most fans in China, Man Utd was filled with expectation. Now fans all hope Rooney can appear in the field as soon as possible.
