272. Chapter 265 Double Red Club! I specialize in strong teams!(1/2)
Author: Bei Guoxia
After the two national team games, the domestic media's praise for Lin Kedi has reached its peak.
There was a sound of praise.
Chinese footballer Yan Qiang called Lin Kedi's performance against the Philippines the strongest individual performance in the history of Asian football!
Other media people did not say as much as Yan Qiang, but it was almost the same.
And it’s not just the Chinese media that praises this.
Japanese and Korean media are also praising it.
The Japanese media wildly praised Lin's victory over the enemy as the pride of all Asians and as the best representative of Asian players.
The Korean media, while bragging about Lin's success, also bragging about Son Heung-min.
Among them, Luo Ming, the editor-in-chief of Sports Monthly, even published a long article praising Lin Kedi.
Luo Ming said——
"It used to be said that football is not a one-person game. There were discussions on various domestic forums in the past about giving the Chinese team a Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi. Even after the rise of Son Heung-min, but after the average performance of the Korean national team, everyone
I have said that football is not a sport for one person, but after watching Lin Kedi’s performance against the Philippines, I don’t think it’s that football is not a sport for one person, it’s just that the player is not strong enough. When Lin Kedi faced the Philippines,
Three times, I used my own speed and skills.
His skills and shooting skills crushed the Philippine defense, and he truly ended the game on his own. Lin Kedi can often end the game on his own in European competitions, let alone in Asian competitions! For example, when facing Newcastle
match, Newcastle hosts
Coach Bruce has tried his best to limit and defend Lin Kedi. He even arranged a 541 defensive formation, but Lin Kedi still completed a hat trick in that game! This shows that Lin Kedi is a single player.
A player with extremely strong combat ability.”
Luo Ming, as the only journalist in China who can vote for the Golden Globe Awards, also expressed his attitude at the end of the article.
"The fact that China can produce Lin Ke is not only lucky for Chinese football, but also lucky for Asian football. He became the first Asian to win the UEFA European Player of the Year and the first Asian to win the World Footballer of the Year.
Man, this is of great significance. In the Golden Globe Awards selection at the end of the year, I believe he can also become the first Asian to win the Golden Globe Award!"
All kinds of praises are pouring in. After all, Lin Kedi's performance is indeed amazing.
After returning to Europe, Manchester United will face a big battle.
The opponent is Liverpool, a classic double red club.
Liverpool ranked second in the league last season, and this season is also very strong, with 7 wins and 1 draw, behind Manchester United, which has eight consecutive wins.
Therefore, this game can be said to be the strongest opponent Manchester United has encountered since the beginning of the season.
Ten Hahe did not dare to neglect at all.
However, this game happened to be played after the national team match day, so the players' physical condition was very problematic.
Therefore, after the first-team players return to the team, Ten Hag will immediately take a look at the physical fitness report given by the team doctor.
The first thing he looked at was Lin Kedi.
I saw everything on the report was normal.
Tenhahe breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Link can play, this game will be a fight.
Afterwards, Ten Hag read the physical fitness reports of all first-team players and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There are only two players who cannot play due to physical condition or injury, one is Dalot and the other Matic.
Matic has already been positioned as a rotation player by Ten Hag, and Dalot is a substitute, so the impact is not big. Ten Hag is completely relieved to study the formation against Liverpool.
At the coaching staff meeting before the game, assistant coach Mitchell first laid out Liverpool's usual starting players and formation.
"Liverpool often uses a 4-3-3 offensive formation. Their tactics are actually very similar to ours, but Klopp and Eric are a little different in their understanding of the midfield. This will depend on what Eric gives us later.
Let’s talk about it – anyway, this is pretty much what Liverpool’s starting lineup will look like.”
"The goalkeeper is Alisson.
As for the defense, the left back is Robertson, the right back is Alexander-Arnold, the two central defenders are Van Dijk on the left and Matip on the right.
The single defensive midfielder is Fabinho, the left midfielder is Wijnaldum, and the right midfielder is Henderson.
The left winger is usually Mane, the right winger is usually Salah, and the center is Firmino. However, Salah has been injured recently, so Liverpool's offense will definitely be affected, which is our advantage."
After Mitchell finished speaking, he looked at Ten Hahe.
Ten Hahe took over.
"Liverpool is a very difficult opponent to deal with, especially if it is a double red club. Basically, there is no need to mobilize emotions. As for tactics, if Salah is injured and cannot play, Mane will probably play on the right or left.
, there aren’t many of them, they should be Austrians
Rigi is gone. Without Salah, their offensive threat will be reduced by at least half. In this case, Arnold will actually form a big gap on the right. This is something we can focus on. When the game is over
I will highlight this topic in the front dressing room!"
"Eric, everyone knows that Arnold is a big colander!"
After Mitchell finished speaking, everyone in the coaching staff laughed.
Carrick, in particular, smiled very happily.
It has become standard practice for Manchester United players to tease and ridicule Liverpool.
Ten Hag's coaching staff has just arrived and has integrated into Manchester United's tradition.
And in the locker room at night.
After training, Ten Hag will announce the starting lineup for tomorrow's game in the locker room.
For a strong force like Lin Kedi, the focus of today's meeting is what kind of tactics Ten Hahe has arranged.
For some others, this meeting is very important.
Especially those defensive midfielders.
Matic feels that he still needs to start in this kind of key game. As for Guimarães, he feels that his youth is an advantage in this level of game and he needs to run by himself.
And players like Fred all have their own ideas.
And Ten Hag came in with a list.
"Let me talk about tomorrow's starting lineup first."
"Goalkeeper De Gea."
"Left back Luke Shaw, right back Feltman. Center backs De Ligt and Lindelof."
"Back waist——"
Having said this, Ten Hahe raised his head and glanced at everyone in the locker room.
"Bruno Guimarães."
Guimarães almost wanted to scream.
But I endured it.
Matic on the other side was dejected.
"Central midfielder Bentancur, De Jong."
"The left winger Rashford, the right winger Perisic. The center forward Lin is the enemy!"
"Okay, now that the list is finished, let's arrange the tactics for tomorrow."
"In tomorrow's game, Salah's injury has not healed yet, and Mane will definitely return to the right wing by then. However, without Salah, although Mane has returned to this path, their offensive styles are not the same.
At that time our focus will be on the right side——"
"Arnold!"
Lin Kedi was the first to shout out the answer.
"Yes, that's Arnold! Lin is very experienced in this area!"
At this point, the locker room burst into laughter and was full of joy.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's name is not very famous in the Premier League at present, but the scene when Link beat Alexander-Arnold is a classic scene in the Champions League.
Everyone here knows it.
"Liverpool's tactics are basically the same as ours. They are high-position pressing tactics. So during the game, our midfielders and backfielders must pay attention to defense. As for their midfielders, they are mostly engineering players with technical skills at their feet.
Normally, so if you are pressing, you can try to find the midfielder."
Ten Hahe said a few words briefly, and it was time to wrap things up at the end.
"I believe there is no need to say more about mobilization in the end. After all, this is the Double Red Congress! You all know the meaning of the Double Red Congress!"
Everyone nodded.
Naturally, everyone clearly understands the significance of the Double Red Society.
