Football’s First Defender

Chapter 448: Set Kick

  Ntent

If we say that after being appointed as his successor by Ferguson last season, Moyes feels like an ugly daughter-in-law. In the Premier League and Everton, after so many years of struggle, he can finally go to the giants. The team, and it is possible that like Ferguson, coaching to retirement, the kind of stable work.

   But now, less than two months after the start of the new Premier League season, Moyes is under tremendous pressure.

   This kind of pressure comes from the record, from the fans, and also from the team's management.

   Regarding the team's results this season, after all, Moyes is a newcomer, and Manchester United will not be too strict with him directly leading the team to defend the title.

But as the most successful giant team in the Premier League era, the defending champion team this season, even if Manchester United does not have a rigid goal of chasing the championship this season, but in the league, it is Manchester United who guarantee the top four and qualify for the Champions League. Minimum goal.

   Participating in the UEFA Champions League is not only a large share of broadcast fees, but the most important thing is the exposure of the "Manchester United" brand.

   The endorsement advertising revenue brought by brand exposure is also the bulk of Manchester United's source of income.

   Moreover, although the mandatory requirements for the results are only the top four Champions League qualifications, in order to appease the emotions of the Red Devils fans, Moyes's record in the strong-strong matchup that has received great attention cannot be too ugly.

After all, for a giant team, you can say that the team is not in good condition and the new coaching tactics have not been adjusted, but you must not use the same excuse every time, again and again, can not compete with other giants. The game played by the team.

After all, this kind of high-exposure matchup between giants will first affect the brand value of the team, and secondly, it is also a stage where the fans of the two sides fight each other. The blow suffered by the loser and the negative energy brought by the ridicule will affect the ball. Of the team.

   Although the Premier League season has not started for a long time, Manchester United's performance in the record and strong dialogue is unhappy.

  Especially the loss of the Double Reds and the Manchester City Derby is absolutely unacceptable for the Red Devils fans.

Let an old opponent who has been under him for more than 20 years stand up, let a Manchester City, who has been a "little brother" in Manchester for many years, press down. The glory of Manchester United, after Ferguson retires, seems to dissipate very fast, almost to let The fans were caught off guard.

   The players are still those players, but the team record cannot be guaranteed.

   For Manchester United this season, the so-called variable may be that the age of the players has increased by one year, and the coach of the team has been replaced by Moyes.

   In the eyes of the fans, these players who also won the league championship last season are already the best players in the Premier League. Then it can only be the coach's pot, it can only be a problem of Moyes' tactical system.

   There will be a certain crisis in Manchester United's coaching position, which Moyes had expected before, but he did not expect that the pressure would be so great and it would be so tormented.

   At Everton, for Moyes, victory or defeat is the normal rhythm of the game during the long season.

Fans will not pursue too much of the results of a game. They are happy if they win, and don’t care if they lose. The team only needs to play two Merseyside derby matches a year to keep their Premier League qualification. Already contented.

   However, for Manchester United fans, such low requirements are naturally inappropriate.

   What Manchester United needs is victory, constant victory, good-looking football, and suppression of other giants. What Moyes needs is to maintain Manchester United's glory, not to make Manchester United an ordinary giant.

Moyes, who has been under pressure from many aspects, is no longer able to carefully consider his tactics. The situation has developed to this day. Even if the game is only an English League Cup, whether it is promoted or not should be irrelevant in the third round. , But because this is another double red society, I had to deal with it wholeheartedly.

   can be the current record, Moyes has been thoroughly grilled on the fire.

   "Offense! Offense!"

   Moyes can only signal the players from the sidelines, continue to strengthen the offense, continue to use the fast-paced offensive to open the game.

Although Manchester United does not have too sophisticated offensive tactics in this field, it must be said that it is indeed that a simple offensive method means that players can maximize their personal strength and can also create a certain unexpected offense. opportunity.

   Manchester United, who mainly played on the wing, passed the ball to the goal several times in a row without results. After being cleared by Liverpool players, Manchester United's offensive players began to change their passing routines.

  Nani can still use his speed on the wing to get rid of and get pilling space.

And this time, Nani’s pass began to exert greater force, and instead of looking for Van Persie and Rooney who were in front of the center, he began to pass back more strongly, bypassing Liverpool’s dense center defense. The area, at the rear point, creates murderous intent.

Nani's pass, the ball is very fast, the position of the drop is on the right side of the penalty area, Liverpool's defenders are shrinking in the middle, and when judging the position of the back point, Jose Enrique wants to move forward Stopped, there is no longer a time.

   Giggs in the penalty area on the right, bent his bow and hit the arrow, before the ball fell, hit the goal directly with one kick, and shot the ball towards the goal.

   The quality of the ball was extremely high, that is, Mignolet once again showed his value, excellent reaction ability, successfully saved on the goal line, blocked the ball out of the baseline, and gave Manchester United a chance for a corner kick.

   Position-kick defense, after Liverpool’s constant staff adjustments in these two seasons, is definitely not one of Liverpool’s strengths. Of course, it is not weak.

There are not many real high-point players in Liverpool, that is, Yang Feng and Skortel on the central defender, but the rest of the players, the set-piece defense is actually not bad, whether it is Suarez or Sturridge on the striker, or Glen Johnson and Henderson in the midfield, although Liverpool do not have too many high points~lightnovelpub.net~, the players' ability to compete is definitely above average.

   It's just that Manchester United's positioning ball advantage is too obvious.

   If the two central defenders on both sides cancel out each other's advantage in the dispute, Fellaini, Manchester United's high school midfielder, is a huge header advantage.

He is tall and strong, and has good mobility. Since childhood, Fellaini has the foundation of a forward. During the Everton period, Fellaini can often be used as a guest high center in the final stage of the game. In the set ball, he can bully the matchup. Don’t be too easy.

   The corner kick from Giggs flew directly to the back point.

   Before the corner kick was issued, Ferdinand and Vidic, one rushed forward and the other smashed against Skrtel in the center, successfully entangled the positions of two Liverpool centre-backs.

   Fellaini, who has been on the outside, rushed to the back point like a bulldozer when Giggs was approaching, defending his Henderson, and could not withstand Fellaini's forward charge.

   The two took off together to compete, but Fellaini's height is more advantageous.

   What is afraid of.

   Rodgers emphasized the positioning ball defense before the game, but there was still an error.

   In the 11th minute of the game, Manchester United relied on Fellaini to beat Henderson's header on the back point to break the deadlock. Old Trafford stadium was instantly boiling.

   Moyes instantly felt a lot less pressure on his body. ntent
