Chapter 446 The tenacious Manchester United (daily transition)
Autumn is approaching, and more and more leaves are falling at the Cobham training base.
Chelsea players doing warm-up exercises.
"More than ten years ago, I asked Totti how he managed to date five female celebrities at the same time."
"They are five hot female celebrities!"
"He told me that if I see a girl I like on TV, I should call her immediately."
"So one day, I called him as usual."
"What do you think the result will be?"
"The female star said to me: Oh! Totti, you imitate Buffon's tone so much!"
"Hahahaha...why don't you laugh? Isn't it funny?"
Buffon's hearty laughter made two magpies on the treetops flap their wings and fly away.
Dino led the staff to arrange obstacles on the training ground. This time it was still a targeted "diamond hexagon", but the scope of the obstacles was expanded, and the effective offensive and defensive area of the team members would be narrower.
Tuchel put his hands in his pockets and looked enigmatic under his black peaked cap.
...
Manchester United is not weak. Even though they lost to Brighton, they are still third in the Premier League standings.
Weaken when we are weak, become strong when we are strong, the ultimate Iron Hammer Gang.
De Gea has been "honed" to become the goalkeeper who ranks first in various statistics in the five major leagues.
Although he can't play the ball, in this historical period, he is still a T0-level goalkeeper in the minds of fans.
The frontcourt is picturesque, and De Gea is in the backcourt.
Pseudo-core Pogba, eukaryotic De Gea.
Various collections of extreme saves kept the audience hooked.
Defend against the opponent, defend against Maguire, defend against Lukaku, defend against Luke Shaw, defend against Smalling...
Just looking at the lineup on paper, Manchester United is star-studded.
Carrington training ground.
Surrounded by green trees, the scenery is beautiful.
"Paul, you were almost late again!"
"You were captured by the Sun paparazzi again last night!"
Although The Sun is a toilet paper newspaper, the relationships between men and women it reports are generally true.
Facing the ridicule from his teammates, Pogba looked stern and ignored it.
He lives a very disciplined life and only goes to nightclubs twice a week.
Agent Raiola helped him create a perfect public image, but the opinions of the marketing trolls were not unified enough: "Pogba never goes to nightclubs" "Pogba and Ronaldinho met in a nightclub, accompanied by beautiful women, chatting
Very happy.》
"cheer."
"We're going to kill Chelsea at Old Trafford!"
...
Time is like a rushing river, and in a blink of an eye, it is another round of Premier League match day.
The Chelsea bus slowly drove into Old Trafford.
Tuchel, led by his staff, arrived at the pre-match press conference.
Reporters paid more attention to Mourinho.
"Playing against Chelsea again, what do you want to say?"
"Is Manchester United confident of withstanding Chelsea's blue storm at the Theater of Dreams?"
"How do you evaluate Chelsea this season? Can Tuchel repeat the great season of more than ten years ago?"
The Premier League media is very harsh on Manchester United because expectations are relatively high. Most people hope that the Red Devils can return to the top instead of becoming the soil for lace resources.
Mourinho's expression was very calm, he pointed at himself, and then stretched out three fingers!
...
VIP box.
Ferguson, 76, took a sip of red wine.
It's really wine.
In the past few years, whenever Manchester United loses, he will vent his anger by drinking. Occasionally, when Manchester United wins, he will invite opponents or old friends for a drink.
As for the previous habit of inviting rival coaches to drink every game, I no longer maintain it after retirement.
Old Trafford itself provides alcohol to guests, but it must be removed fifteen minutes before the game.
"I remember Lee's Champions League debut, which was at Old Trafford."
"It was the Champions League qualifying play-offs two years ago, the Jazz..."
"Qualifying play-offs..."
Unpleasant memories are filtered out by the brain.
Looking at the red ocean in front of me.
Ferguson, the former leader of the Red Devils dynasty, never imagined that Manchester United's dominance would decline to such an extent after his retirement.
...
Player tunnel.
Players from both sides greeted each other.
Too familiar.
Matic, in particular, seems very enthusiastic towards his old Chelsea friends.
As well as the French Black Egg Pie, the Belgian Pie, the Spanish Pie, and the Arsenal Old Friends Pie.
Sudden.
Li Kang saw a mouse crawling under his feet, which immediately made the caddies extremely happy.
Rat infestation is a legacy of Old Trafford's history, and rats can occasionally be seen on the turf during games.
Pogba's hairstyle today is relatively normal: a mohawk dyed blue.
He silently glanced at the Chelsea queue, and the desire to fight suddenly spread throughout his body.
Losing focus when playing against weaker teams.
Focus when playing against strong teams.
Fans jokingly said: This is Pogba's way of forbearance.
...
"ESPN, ESPN, hello, viewers."
"The live broadcast for you now is the eighth round of the 2017/18 Premier League season."
"Manchester United vs. Chelsea at home."
"The passion battle is about to begin."
"The camera panned to the away stands. It was Hermione, the protagonist of "Harry Potter" and a loyal Chelsea fan. She has not acted in movies or commercials in the past year, but has focused on the feminist movement."
"The camera then switched to the VIP box, it was Hilps who played for Manchester United in 1994!"
The red sea is churning.
Amidst deafening cheers.
The referee team led the players from both sides out of the tunnel.
The moment Li Kang stepped onto the turf, the system prompt sounded quietly.
[Task introduction: After Mourinho's training, Manchester United now has a more three-dimensional and solid defensive system, and the threat in transition attacks is extremely strong. Of course... the premise is that their defensive players can keep their minds clear. 】
[Task reward: Manchester United Legend·Platinum Treasure Box.]
...
"The following introduces you to the lineups of both sides."
"Manchester United's formation is 4-2-3-1!"
"Goalkeeper: De Gea."
"Defenders: Valencia, Maguire, Smalling, Blind!"
"Double defensive midfielders: Herrera, Matic."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Central Midfielder: Sanchez, Pogba, Martial!"
"Forward: Lukaku."
-[I think this lineup is evenly matched with Chelsea..., not much different.]
-[Herrera is Hazard’s natural enemy, with a restrained style. He defeated the goal scorer in four matches... just like Cruyff meeting a golden retriever.]
-[Mu's second year, the peak of his combat power.]
-[The duel between Pogba and Li Kang, the two strongest talented midfielders of the young generation.]
...
"Chelsea's formation is 4-3-3!"
"Goalkeeper: Buffon."
"Defenders: Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill, Marcos Alonso."
"Midfielder: Li Kang, Kante, Fabregas."
"Forwards: Hazard, Morata, Willian."
-[This lineup actually does not have an absolute finishing core, and all attackers are very selfless, resulting in an offensive design that is unpredictable to the opponent.]
-[Soldiers are unpredictable, water is shapeless, and Tuhel is unpredictable.]
-[This game must be avoided. The strangulation game will take up a lot of time and offensive and defensive rounds, and big goals cannot be made.]
-[Li Mingdeng hits Old Trafford three times.]
...
Accompanied by the referee's whistle.
The game officially begins.
Manchester United possession of the ball.
Lukaku twisted his fat body, kicked off with an underfoot, and passed back to Matic.
Who would have thought that he was still a lean little black egg last season.
He took two steps forward sideways, and after observing the path of the football, he moved forward with the formation and invaded Chelsea's half.
He stared fiercely at Chelsea's goal.
Thirty Years in Hedong.
Thirty Years in Hexi.
Don't bully young people into poverty.
Little Hei Fatty was once a Chelsea player, why does he have such a strong desire for revenge?
The story begins in the 2011/12 season. Villas-Boas did not register him in the Champions League squad. As a result, Di Matteo led the team to win the Champions League.
'I didn't touch the Champions League trophy because I didn't win it myself.'
Hate the house and the bird.
In the years since, Lukaku often vented his dissatisfaction with Chelsea to the media and complained about Chelsea players.
...
"Lukakula is on his side!"
"Blinder presses forward to the 40-meter area, adjusts slightly after receiving the ball, and makes a long pass!"
"Diagonal bombing!"
Blind's oblique long biography is very accomplished. He personally cast Robin van Persie's "Flying to the Top" world-famous painting.
A masterpiece of Ajax youth training.
During the 2007 European Youth Championship, he was still a well-known handsome boy in Europe, known as the "Bourne Anderson on the green field". Unfortunately, at the age of 20, he began to have cheeks and cheeks and a receding hairline.
The football was spinning in mid-air.
Following its trajectory, the camera suddenly moved to the right half of Manchester United's offensive direction.
Marcos blocked the ball in time and interfered with Lukaku's ball at the landing point.
pity.
Unable to withstand the impact of two hundred pounds!
Old Trafford suddenly burst into applause.
The visual impact is so explosive: an elephant fights a leopard!
"Wow!"
"Lukaku pushed Marcos out of the touchline with his butt!"
"Li Kang's supplementary defense!"
"Stuck in position and let the football roll out of bounds. It was a very reasonable defense. Pogba also responded in time."
"Chelsea's throw-in."
Lukaku was like an elephant, crazily arching Li Kang's butt.
Why can't it turn over in one fell swoop?
In the end, I could only watch the football go out of bounds.
Although he likes to speak ill of people, he is still a good boy.
Lukaku patted Li Kang's butt in a friendly manner, and then pulled up Marcos, who had been ravaged by him.
Li Kang touched his little braised egg.
...
Sideline.
Tuchel sat on the coaching bench, with his hands folded on his chest and a calm expression.
Dino took notes carefully: "Sure enough, Manchester United took the lead and took the initiative to suppress Marcos' side. They used the right and the left to attract defensive forces, and then Pogba, who was supporting him, made a small arc pass and run.
"
"Plus Sanchez who rotates to the center..."
"Mourinho's independent offensive design is also very targeted."
the other side.
Mourinho looked calm, with one hand in his pocket and the other hand directing the defensive formation to move back.
During Mu's second year at Manchester United, their level of abuse was average, but they were very good at fighting tough battles.
Research on tactical cracking in the Premier League is progressing very quickly.
At this time, Manchester United also learned the lessons of Manchester City and Tottenham: they cannot face this Chelsea head-on with a high defensive line for a long time.
...
"Marcos throws in."
"Manchester United didn't put in much pressure in the frontcourt, and everyone retreated to defend. Even Lukaku had to cover the wing defense."
"Li Kang passed the ball to Hazard."
"oops."
"Herrera is really Hazard's lifelong enemy! A close skin-to-skin kiss."
"Nice turn to get away!"
"Give it to Morata in the middle!"
"I heard... he has inverse feet on both feet!"
"Wow!"
"Is this still Morata?"
Sometimes the slap in the face comes quickly.
Who doesn’t eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?
Morata, who retreated moderately, observed Maguire out of position before receiving the ball.
good chance.
Big gap.
Adjust body tendencies.
Swing arms.
Get up.
Boom!
A world wave was blasted from the thirty-meter area!
Old Trafford let out waves of exclamation.
The football turned into a black shadow in mid-air and flew towards the Manchester United goal.
Scientists have done research: De Gea's reaction arc limit is 0.18 seconds, which is faster than the average lightning duration of 0.2 seconds!
The slender figure stretches in mid-air.
Platinum gloves, clenched into a fist.
Snapped!
The fast-moving football calmed down instantly and flew lightly out of the baseline!
"Beautiful, De Gea!"
"God pounce!"
"Catch heavy artillery with one hand!"
"It's such a pity that Morata made such a powerful long-range shot."
"Chelsea's corner kick chance from the left!"
Catching a heavy shot with one hand is not a fantasy story. Cech has done it, Buffon has done it, and Neuer has also done it.
De Gea wanted to curse something, but looking at Ma DaTou who was still scratching his butt... he couldn't curse anything.
Morata applauded and his confidence doubled.
...
William stands in the corner flag area.

approach.
Snapped!
"Walk on the ground."
"Tactical corner kick!"
"Fabregas takes the ball."
"Manchester United's defense started to open up more space."
"I heard that Tuchel's team will only conduct short set-piece practice the day before the game."
"Set up the artillery!"
"Li Kang!"
Although Fabregas is no longer as brave as he once was, his ability to read the defense is top-notch.
Snapped.
Knock lightly and horizontally.
It just captured the gap when the distance between Manchester United's defense lines expanded.
Li Kang met the ball and shot from the left side of the arc in the penalty area!
Boom!
The football rises rapidly, spins violently, and is about to make a graceful arc.
But it hit a big face.
Maguire!
"Full level frontal air defense at the beginning!"
"It's so dangerous."
"It's Maguire who stands up this time."
"Manchester United dodged a bullet again!"
"Chelsea's left side kick!"
"The siege is about to begin!"
Maguire smiled and gave Li Kang a thumbs up.
Li Kang also gave him a thumbs up.
VIP box.
Ferguson looked complicated. He was quite satisfied with the performance of the Manchester United players, but the home team had already told him in previous games: These guys might have trouble at critical moments.
...
Old Trafford is one of the few stadiums in Europe that likes to give applause.
Time passes minute by minute.
Chelsea launched a siege against Manchester United, and the fierce positional battle captured the hearts of the audience.
Applause and cheers overlapped.
Tuchel rushed to the command area at some point and made serious gestures.
Mourinho looked increasingly grim.
Dino silently took notes: "There is so much worth learning about Manchester United's low-post defense in Mu's second year."
...
-[It’s been almost 19 minutes and you haven’t scored yet?]
-【Don't worry, the fun has just begun.】
-[Can Lukaku play as a center forward? He always plays wide.]
-[The most complex offensive design VS the most rigorous low-post defense.]
-[It’s so meticulous, Maguire’s counter-attack long pass hit David Luiz in the face again...]
