Chapter 570: First Productive Forces

"Hello spectators, I'm Gary Lineker, and welcome to the daily game!"

"Hello, I'm Alan Shearer!"

"I'm Alan Hansen!"

"Hello audience friends, I'm Charlene Lahri!"

When each host greets the audience, the camera gives a big close-up.

When all four of them have finished speaking, the camera zooms out and a distant view of the entire studio appears, including all four of them.

"If you want to talk about these games tonight, I don't know which one everyone is most concerned about?"

Lineker smiled and pointed to Alan Shearer, "If I'm not mistaken, Shearer should be most concerned about Southampton and Reading, right?" ”

Alan Shearer nodded, "Yes, I care about this one the most. ”

Alain Hansen on the side suddenly laughed, "He was born as a saint and is considered a celebrity. ”

"No, no, no, not exactly!" Alan Shearer quickly shook his head, "One of the most important reasons I care about the Saints is that I feel like this team deserves a reward!" ”

"League runner-up, not enough?" Lineker asked with a smile.

Alan Shearer was speechless at this moment, and could only shrug his shoulders and act helplessly.

"Hansen, which one are you most concerned about?" Lineker asked again.

Alan Hansen nodded, "It's also the Southampton game against Reading. ”

"Why are you?" Lineker thought it was funny.

You said that Alan Shearer cares about Southampton because Shearer is a famous saint, so why do you care?

"When I was on Charlene's show before, she told me that Southampton was introducing more high-tech elements in training and games, and I was very interested, so I've been following this team all the time, every round."

Lineker nodded in realization, "What did you find?" ”

"Steady dìng, very stable dìng!" Alan Hansen shook his head and exclaimed: "This team has been fighting on multiple fronts since September last year, but their rotation system has worked quite well, and they have done a pretty good job in terms of player rotation and overall team effectiveness, especially since December. ”

When everyone else heard this, they all nodded in unison.

When it comes to rotation, Southampton has the largest rotation this season.

Even Bielsa has promoted players such as Mateo Kovacic, Januzaj, Luke Shaw and Chambers in many cup games, and these players have been very good in many cases.

This is quite surprising.

It stands to reason that teams that like to rotate will inevitably have ups and downs in strength.

Southampton, however, is quite stable.

There may be ups and downs, but it's really hard to see!

"Charlene, what about you? Which one do you care about the most? Lineker turned to the blonde beauty, Charlene Lahri.

She is one of the flowers in the three big male hosts of the daily competition.

"I'm more concerned about the derby between Manchester United and Manchester City!"

This time, the three major male hosts are all strange.

As we all know, Charlene Lahri has always been a fan of the Saints, why did she suddenly turn to care about Manchester United?

"Why?" Lineker asked.

Charlene Lahri smiled, "Because I know that Southampton has won, I should care about the opponent rather than focus on a game without suspense, so ......"

Everyone was out of luck at this time.

What is hardcore powder called?

Charlene Lahri is a die-hard fan of the Saints!

"Okay, now that the game is over and everyone knows the result, I'm very interested to know, what do you guys think about the result? Southampton are now just five points behind Manchester United and have six league games to go, what do you think? ”

Lineker immediately looked at Alan Shearer as soon as he finished asking.

Without thinking, the Saints replied: "As I said, I think Southampton deserve a reward for their successful comeback over Manchester United. ”

'From the last few rounds of the league, there is definitely a problem with Manchester United, maybe it is physical, maybe it is tactics that have been figured out, all in all, I think Manchester United have a problem and there is a very high possibility of continuing to drop points.

"Five points, only two or three games, judging from Manchester United's table in the past few rounds, it is completely possible!"

'On the other hand, Southampton have been on a winning streak, the unbeaten record is quite impressive, the morale is high, the players are holding their breath, and it's time to get on the go, so I think Southampton is likely to continue their winning streak.

Lineker nodded and turned to Alan Hansen, "Hansen, what do you think?" ”

Alan Hansen thought for a moment, "I partially support Shearer's view, but I have some different opinions. ”

"Tell me about it!"

"I think the more we get to this critical moment in the race for the title, the more we can't ignore the role of the manager!"

"Yes, that makes sense!" Lineker nodded.

"Ferguson is the most experienced manager in winning the Premier League, and don't underestimate Ferguson's ability to adjust himself, the slump in the past few rounds of games, I prefer to believe that it is over, Ferguson must have a way to deal with it!"

Lineker nodded again, feeling that Alan Hansen had a point.

But at this time, Charlene Lahri interjected, "Hansen has a point, but I'm curious, no matter how Ferguson adjusts, he can only adjust the physical condition and psychology of the players, not to mention how much the veteran can adjust, this is unknown, I'm curious......"

After a pause, Charlene Lahri looked directly at Alan Hansen, "How can Manchester United's tactical problems be solved?" ”

"What kind of stubborn disease?" Alan Hansen asked.

"As we all know, including Steve Wilson's columns, it has been mentioned many times that after the departure of Queiroz, Ferguson's transformation of Manchester United is going backwards, and once Manchester United's attack hits the front court, there is no idea at all, how can this be solved?"

"By Rooney?" Charlene Lahri shook her head and laughed.

Steve Wilson, one of Europe's leading football columnists, once commented in his column that it would be a sad thing for the Premier League to win the title this season.

The reason is very simple, Manchester United's style of play in the past few seasons has completely gone against the trend of continentalization!

Why?

Steve Wilson mentioned that Manchester United's entire midfield is very mechanical, full of players such as Fletcher, Cleverley, Nani, Ashley Young, Valencia, Anderson, etc., what can these people bring to Manchester United's midfield?

The answer is, no!

Ferguson was a stubborn man who believed that actions were more important than ideas.

Therefore, Fletcher, Cleverley and others are all practitioners of his philosophy.

But the problem is, you are very violent, very brave, but you have no ideas, what should you do?

What does it mean to kick a ball with your brain?

That is to say, when you play football, you have to have ideas in your head, you have to have imagination, you have to have creative power!

On the football field, ideas are the first productive force!

But even in the season when Manchester United reached the Champions League final and finally lost to Barcelona, the most commendable thing for the Red Devils was never their attack, but the steel defense formed by Rio Ferdinand and Vidic.

Aside from the veterans, the only one in the team who has more ideas is Carrick.

But it's clear that Carrick can't hold up the entire midfield of Manchester United!

Therefore, as a last resort, Ferguson could only invite Scholes and Ryan Giggs to stay in the team and play to their spare heat.

Even, even with the likes of Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Michael Carrick, there is nothing commendable about United's entire midfield system, it is something very British and stubborn.

So, Steve Wilson said that between Manchester United and Southampton, he was unwavering in his choice of the Saints!

Now, more and more teams are starting to know how to play Manchester United.

Thus, the crux of the Red Devils' attack was exposed.

What's more, as the core offensive player in the team, Rooney is obviously failing!

"I dare say that if Manchester United want to continue to do something in the Premier League, they have to win Wayne Rooney!"

"By the same token, if Manchester City want to make a difference, Yaya Toure has to take it!"

Speaking of this, Charlene Lahri shook her head and sighed with embarrassment: "Many times, it is painful to make such a decision, and Manchester United and Manchester City may not do it, but the best players may not be the most suitable!" ”

Charlene Lahri's words made the three people present fall into deep thought.

Manchester United, with Wayne Rooney at the core, and Manchester City with Yaya Toure at the core, have obviously encountered problems.

At the very least, the ceiling of these two players is strictly restricting the development of these two teams.

It can even be said that Manchester United's attack has exposed the gap between Wayne Rooney and the top stars, and Manchester City's midfield has also shown everyone why Yaya Toure has been pressed by Pep Guardiola in the midfield position.

Relatively speaking, Southampton made a much smarter choice.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, as one of the best centre-forwards in the world, needs the team to build tactics around him, but the strength of the Swedish centre-forward and his position as a centre-forward on the pitch have become an advantage.

Many people say that Ibrahimovic has his own tactical system, what is the explanation?

It's not that Ibrahimovic alone can top up to all of his opponents, but it's describing his tactical value.

The Swedish center forward has an almost perfect body, speed, flexibility, flexibility, strength, height and whatever, how to be perfect, and what is even more terrifying is that he has delicate foot skills and excellent shooting skills.

With such a perfect center, the midfield and backfield are casually matched, as long as it is not too bad, can pass the ball to his feet steadily, and then equip him with a set of secondary offensive lineups around him, then the whole set of tactics will be!

Opponents are heavily defended?

It doesn't matter, Lao Tzu used his body and technology to forcibly bump out a space, what are you afraid of?

With the Swedish center's physical and technical ability, which is enough to crush all the central defenders, let alone one-on-one, many times two-on-one is enough!

Once on the pitch, it's like twelve dozen eleven!

In the past three years, Southampton has pushed Ibrahimovic's tactical role forward step by step.

Look at Southampton's frontcourt this season, Neymar, Gareth Bale, Hazard, Sturridge and Ravel Morrison are all very capable players who can pass the ball to Ibrahimovic and actively participate in the second attack.

What about the midfield?

Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, James Rodriguez, Isco, Nemanja Matic......

Plus Javi Martinez, David Alaba and Danilo at the back.

It can be said that Southampton's entire squad configuration is doing its best to give full play to Ibrahimovic's tactical value.

The Swedish centre-forward has not disappointed either, with nearly 30 Premier League goals now in his tally this season.

What's even more terrifying is that he has also reached double digits in assists.

Neymar, Gareth Bale and Vidal all got big deals from Ibrahimovic!

It's like playing Reading, one goal, three assists, which shows the important role of Ibrahimovic in the team!

Ibrahimovic, who is getting older, has clearly begun to transform with the help of Southampton's coaching staff.

There are superstar players at the core, but compared to Southampton, the core players of Manchester United and Manchester City are obviously inferior, is there?

In the final analysis, Manchester United and Manchester City have sacrificed too much for the sake of their core players at the tactical level!

Southampton is different.

As long as Ibrahimovic continues to maintain this excellent competitive form, even if Southampton really sells Neymar and even Gareth Bale, as long as the right players are introduced, Southampton's overall strength will not be weak!

Just kidding, Da Feng is at the front first, who can bear it? R1148
