Bailey looks very old, but is actually only 22 years old.
African Cup of Nations champion.
Best XI of Europa League.
Mourinho likes his toughness and speed, and he is more aggressive than Phil Jones, who has been plagued by injuries.
The weight of the two tendencies, aggressiveness and tactical obedience, needs to be balanced according to the actual situation.
Especially when you come to a new team, you have to consider the characteristics of different defensive teammates when making choices.
Bailey doesn't think he did anything wrong.
He rushed towards the football without hesitation.
If Smalling can't defend Morata on his own, what's next for the Premier League and Europa League?
...
"Bailey is very fast."
"Li Kang is closer to football."
"I didn't use much force with my feet when I just made the steal."
"Football is something you can control within a few steps."
Li Kang's left foot touched the football first.
Pull back gently.
Avoided Bailey's flying shovel.
Knock the inside of your right foot again.
The football rolls backward toward the gap diagonally ahead!
As he turned around, he accelerated in two steps.
Bailey was completely thrown away.
Old Trafford is boiling again.
....
There are no shadows of legendary stars.
He just used the golden left foot to pull the ball and turn around.
"Chicken and unrestrained."
"Get away from others gracefully."
"Bailey turned and chased back very quickly."
"Can't catch up."
"Li Kang didn't give him a chance to fight and sent a long pass!"
"back-court."
"Morata, one against two! He is surrounded!"
Morata's golf IQ is very high.
When he is fighting for position, he does not rely entirely on his body.
A fake move of speeding up and rushing to the outside, deceiving Luke Xiao into taking two steps back.
Many times, it is the smart people who can be deceived.
Smalling was stupid and did not make a fake move to eat Morata.
He has not received any systematic youth training, and what his big brothers Vidic and Ferdinand taught him back then were all martial arts secrets.
It is equivalent to having a university professor teach him calculus before he graduates from elementary school.
Therefore, this guy's basic positioning awareness is often criticized.
No sloppiness.
Morata started eating Smallin raw.
Which way to run?
No matter which way he runs, Li will definitely pass the ball over.
In the lens.
Arsenal's striker got past the 1.94 meter Manchester United centre-back in just a few steps!
"When Smallin didn't grow that tall, he could turn around very quickly."
"He's not too slow now."
"Morata started too quickly."
...
The right side of the top of the penalty area.
Morata stopped the ball with his chest.
There was no rush to shoot.
He knew his responsibility in this counterattack.
After all, he was the young Real Madrid player who was taught by Mourinho how to play transition offense.
Forcibly shooting will only waste this hard-won counterattack.
He raised his elbow to block Smallin's body contact.
He moved the football flexibly and avoided the Manchester United central defender's kick.
He is waiting too.
Wait for Sanchez.
Didn't wait too long.
Manchester United players are about to get back into position!
Morata cut the ball and turned around, quickly accelerated toward the baseline, grabbed the space for the ball, and sent a cross.
"Sanchez on the other side!"
“So timely!”
"Put in the rush!"
...
Sanchez didn't shoot.
The defensive positioning of De Gea and Luke Shaw was fantastic.
The Chilean striker finished his thinking in the flash of lightning.
There was a snap.
His dark, thick thighs knocked the ball behind him.
Set up the cannon!
Arsenal No. 10, arrived as scheduled.
Old Trafford let out waves of exclamation.
My thoughts are drawn back to a certain season dominated by the blue giant beast...
Isn't this just the Chelsea style of attacking and shooting three long-range shots?
Mourinho on the sidelines was dumbfounded.
...
De Gea is going to cry.
He reacted very quickly, but he couldn't jump from the near post to the far post in an instant.
The Old Trafford goal is 7.32 meters wide.
That's too late.
Boom!
Li Kang, who was unmarked, fired an unremarkable long shot from outside the penalty area.
An elegant arc without violent turns.
There is no strong ball speed that rushes like the wind.
The football fell into Manchester United's net unimpeded.
0:2!
In the theater of dreams, lamentation and cheering are constantly intertwined.
Pogba, who came back to defend, knelt on the ground and stopped beside Li Kang.
Mr. One Hundred Million angrily beat the turf again.
"The ball is in!"
"Li Kang finally broke through the opponent's goal before the Manchester United players returned to defend."
“A classic moment from Dream Theater!”
"Arsenal fixes transition shortcomings!"
"He's worth more than 200 million!"
"At the end of the first half, Sanchez assisted and Li Kang scored with a long shot. Arsenal expanded its lead!"
....
Studio.
The whole process of Arsenal's counterattack was replayed on the big screen.
Barrage flying.
-[What's going on? I just poured a glass of water, why did Arsenal score a goal? Didn't Manchester United suppress them and beat them?]
-【Li Mingdeng is awesome!】
-[Isn’t this the counterattack of Chelsea’s style? It’s just that in the starting stage, Li Kang and Walcott shortened the sprint time by passing the ball. One ran well, and the other passed the ball far enough in advance.]
-[Lure Bailey again to distract the last line of defense.]
-[Morata's individual ability is strong enough. He can cheat one by one and eat one by one. The timing of the cross pass is very accurate! I originally thought he was going to shoot by himself. 】
-[Sanchez is very good at setting up guns. Not only that, but last season, he would definitely have kicked it himself.]
-[Manchester United's defense was disrupted by the two of them.]
- [Pay attention to Li Mingdeng's movement and passing in this counterattack... It's amazing. It's like it's been calculated. Every link is just right. If the final kick was a few seconds late, Manchester United would have been beaten.
The returning player destroyed it!]
-[Aren’t Arsenal going to be invincible this season?]
- [If there are no injuries, play first, if there are injuries, play second... rush to grab points before a large-scale injury wave! The Premier League champion is guaranteed.]
....
In the stands.
Ferguson's face turned red, he clenched his crutches with both hands and knocked heavily on the ground.
He wanted to give the club's scout a good beating.
It was obviously Manchester United who discovered that kid first.
"Can't Manchester United pay 200 million?"
"Unlucky Wenger... spent 200 million to build a dynasty before retiring!"
"No."
"He won't retire so soon! That kid Li can still play for many years!"
Angry.
Even more angry than when Cesc Fabregas smashed the pizza.
It was obviously Manchester United who discovered Li Kang first.
...
Bang bang bang.
The spectators in the neutral stands gave warm applause.
With the cheers of Arsenal fans.
Many Manchester United fans were also infected and couldn't help but clap their hands.
This is the value of Mr. 200 million.
Not just individual abilities.
It also has the magic to reverse the situation instantly.
Arsenal's goal, which was in danger, was instigated by him to launch the most simple and direct counterattack.
....
Courtside.
Boulder was still confused.
Wenger was already surrounded by the coaching staff, raising his fists high.
Exciting transition offense.
This goal is of great significance.
A spatial counterattack separated from width and depth.
The shooter is no longer a young man with an avoidant attachment personality!
The first move is invincible.
The backhand is domineering.
Who can stop this Arsenal.
"Oh, God."
"Lee has solved a problem that has plagued Arsenal's coaching staff for many years."
"Boss, we are going to replicate the miracle of being undefeated in 49 games back then!"
"Calm down, this is only the fourth round of the Premier League!"
"Don't just celebrate. Give Li a banana quickly. He must be tired from running so far."
....
The other side.
The Manchester United coaching staff was silent.
Mourinho called Bailly in front of him and shouted filial piety.
"What's going on in your head?"
"This is Manchester United, not Villarreal!"
"The back line must not be out of position."
"Even in the face of the enemy's counterattack, we must move our defensive focus back instead of attacking at will."
"If you don't get out of position, we might even hit Arsenal out of position after completing the tackle!"
"..."
Of course Bailey didn't understand.
He didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Last season at Villarreal, he was able to keep a clean sheet against Barcelona, which owns msn!
Mourinho looked at his disciple's confused expression and his tone gradually weakened...
never mind.
Even if Bailly doesn't lose his position, that kid Li Kang may still be able to score three goals.
....
On the green field.
Li Kang was surrounded by his teammates.
Morata said excitedly: "Lee, I know what you are thinking... This kind of counterattack is too easy for me!"
Sanchez was silent and scratched Li Kang's hair excitedly.
Walcott took the banana from the sidelines, peeled it and stuffed it into Li Kang's mouth.
Banana is a high-potassium food, which can strengthen muscles and endurance, improve concentration... It's not that exciting, but experiments show that it is a quick source of energy.
For example, Bayern Munich's Neuer often eats bananas during games.
Calasso quickly asked everyone not to scratch so hard.
He was afraid that Li Kang would not be injured by his opponent, but would be scratched by his teammates.
The joy of one person contrasts the sadness of the other.
The Manchester United generals, who had been firmly in control of the situation, were a little discouraged.
De Gea has not yet learned to scold his teammates. He patiently explained the problem of defensive positioning to Smalling... Although he has talked about it for several seasons, he may continue to talk about it in the future...
Pogba was reluctant to get up for a long time, looking lost.
Why do you lose to Li every time?
The national team lost.
The club also loses.
Yin Bu directly pulled him up without saying a word, with a stern look on his face. He raised his hand and pointed at the football in the net, signaling the French little black egg to hurry up and pick it up.
....
The circle reopens during the game.
Yin Bu kicked the ball back and passed it back to the backcourt.
Atkinson looked at his watch and immediately blew the whistle to end the first half.
The shouts from the stands on all sides stopped abruptly.
The LED screen in mid-air at Old Trafford showed the score of 0:2.
Arsenal fans were delighted with the lead.
Manchester United fans have a strong ability to adjust their emotions at home. They were not too frustrated and left their seats happily.
The home team's offensive performance was impressive, but they were unlucky and failed to score a goal.
Dream Theater, how many times has it been two goals behind at halftime?
It’s never uncommon for two to chase a third in a script!
.....
Players from both sides walked off the green field.
Cech put his arm around Li Kang's shoulders and said as he walked: "Li, you don't have to retreat so deep in the second half... I can solve the problem."
Which goalkeeper doesn't look forward to having Mr. 200 million in front of him in critical moments?
But Cech's overall team awareness is very strong.
He is the goalkeeper that best fits the Bus system.
The key is not to be defensive.
It's about fighting back.
He believed that Li Kang was more threatening when he was active outside the penalty area during positional battles.
Passage.
Wenger, who has the upper hand, will never be angered by Mourinho again.
He began to patiently think about his opponent's adjustments in the second half.
....
After a while.
Arsenal dressing room.
Borrow pulled up the tactical board.
After a brief exchange between Wenger and the Gunners coaching staff, he began to make tactical adjustments for the second half.
"Pogba and Yinbu represent the connection between Manchester United's midfield and frontcourt during the attacking phase."
"Thanks to their personal abilities and styles, it will be difficult for us to cut them off."
"But matchup defense can be put on other people."
"Martial staying away from the crowd, Lingard running around."
"Also watch out for Herrera who is always plugged in."
"These three points are crucial."
"If Mourinho replaces Martial with Rooney or Mata in the second half, then we have to pay attention to the defensive depth..."
soon.
Defensive tasks are divided among each midfielder and backfield player.
Li Kang is still not assigned marking duties.
Wenger has always believed that two hundred million dollars spent on defense would be a waste.
....
Manchester United dressing room.
A very interesting incident happened.
Yin Bu pushed Mourinho and Faria out of the door.
The door slammed shut.
No one knows what happened between the players.
Two minutes later.
The locker room door was opened again.
The Manchester United coaching team saw faces that were no longer frustrated and had high morale...
The anger that Mourinho was preparing to vent dissipated in an instant.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sometimes.
Maybe it would be better to analyze and summarize the errors in another way.
.....
The fifteen-minute intermission ended quickly.
Player tunnel.
Rooney and Li Kang said hello.
The two of them are not very familiar with each other.
But Xiaopang is familiar with Kramer, Bender and other playboys from North China.
Last season's Champions League quarter-finals and quarter-finals.
Rooney has introduced many good places to Leverkusen players to experience the local customs and customs.
It's just that the waiter is a bit older.
Li Kang smiled, looked at the energetic Rooney, and began to simulate Manchester United's formation changes from a God's perspective.
He likes to watch Rooney's game highlights.
There is a huge amount of data in the memory.
...
Tens of thousands of spectators returned to their seats.
The referee team led the players from both sides to return to the green field.
Old Trafford is back in action.
"Viewers, welcome back, now we are broadcasting the fourth round of the 2016/17 Premier League season for you."
“The second half of Manchester United vs Arsenal!”
"Mourinho made his first substitution."
"Rooney comes on for Martial!"
"Manchester United's formation is very likely to become 4-4-2! It may also become 4-3-3!"
"Wenger is standing still. According to his style, it is expected that Arsenal, who are leading by two goals, will make substitutions within 60-75 minutes!"
....
Studio.
Barrage flying.
-[Isn’t Rooney going to the United States? Is he still capable of playing in the Premier League? Make way for young people!]
-【Occupying the latrine and not shitting.】
-[Don’t talk nonsense, he is in good shape this season, and he can even score a golden hook upside down in the first two rounds!]
-[Manchester United's formation is still 4-5-1. Rooney, who has played as a central midfielder in recent years, is stronger and more powerful.]
】
-[If his private life is more restrained, his career will be more brilliant.]
-[Lu Xiaopang’s journey as a Red Devil has been brilliant...]
-【Having Lu Xiaopang in your family means you are blessed and healthy.】
