As David Beckham's performances for the Red Rebels went from strength to strength, especially this time when he came to England with the title of England's first ever double footballer of the year, Eriksen had to rely on him and build the team around him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the one hand, Eriksen's position is not secure after the cheating, and Beckham is a key player he must rely on, as he has already proven his quality against Northern Ireland last time out, and he has also proved that he can be at the heart of the national team.

On the other hand, Eriksen is also in the consideration of off-field factors, it must be said that after winning the double footballer, Beckham's popularity in the UK is unimaginable, and his fame around the world is rising, especially under the promotion of the Red Rebel Department of Commerce.

Today's Beckham may not dare to say that he is the world's No. 1 when it comes to strength, but if it comes to fame, even Ronaldinho, Zidane and others cannot compete with him, and even they together may not have Beckham's commercial value.

Behind all this is the impetus of the Red Rebel Ministry of Commerce.

One only has to imagine the team's worldwide popularity overshadowing the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea, threatening Manchester United's leading position, and one can imagine the commercial success of this team over the years.

Rebellious surname Kid Cristiano? Ronaldo, the devout believer gentleman Kaka, the boy next door Leo? Messi, coupled with Beckham, a popular idol who has long been the most commercially valuable in the world, has made the Red Rebels immediately the object of reverence of countless sponsors.

Being able to bring together so many idol elements in one team and attract so many fans from different ethnic groups, Red Rebels can be said to be the hottest commercial brand in football and even the world, and their constant focus on charity has also made the value of this brand rise with the water.

The commercial success of the Red Rebels also favored England.

This time, England recruited a total of four Red Rebels players, namely Ismail, Beckham, Terry and Curtis, the latter three of these four players are the main players of the Red Rebels, and Ismael Although he is temporarily unable to play the main team, he has performed well in many appearances, and he is also a descendant of the Red Rebels, loyal to the team.

Among them, the news from the Sun newspaper said that Erickson is currently considering recruiting Michael, who is a member of the Red Rebels? Johnson, in addition to the fact that the player can help Beckham in midfield, also has a sponsorship relationship.

A number of sponsors, including Nationwide, Carlsberg and PepsiCo, are very fond of the Red Rebels players, and the sponsorship contract that Nationwide has just signed with England requires that the Red Rebels players must participate in the company's advertising shoots.

Of course, Ismail's selection also has a lot to do with his excellent performance in the warm-up games when he was selected for the national team for the first time before, he is like a giant tank, constantly attacking the opponent's defense, and will be the most powerful fulcrum in England's front.

However, judging from the current situation, Eriksen trusts Rooney and Owen more, and although Ismael is selected, it is difficult to get the opportunity to be the main team, after all, Rooney and Owen are in good form.

On the contrary, Curtis, after Terry sat in the main position, Curtis was originally pressed under Ferdinand and forced to compete with Campbell for the third central defender, but with Manchester United's performance this season, Ferdinand's unstable characteristics have also been exposed, on the other hand, Curtis, he and Terry's central defender combination is the most stable in the Premier League, and the combination with the least number of goals conceded.

In addition, once Curtis is on the field, he can help Beckham share the pressure in the front insertion, which Ferdinand does not have, and it is bound to make Beckham better involved in organizing the attack.

Eriksen ultimately decided to start Curtisz in place of the inconsistent Rio Ferdinand for the sake of safety, and the latter did not disappoint Eriksen, who clearly knew that this was the best chance to prove himself.

In the familiar Red Rebels Stadium, under the noses of familiar fans, Curtis appeared very active, in the 23rd minute of the first half, with a corner kick opportunity from Beckham, he scored with a header to help England open the scoring.

He was very active in the game after that, being able to play in attack and help John Terry to protect the goal, while he and John Terry's centre-back combination once again helped England to keep a clean sheet.

With goals from Curtis, Steven Gerrard, Wayne Rooney, David Beckham and Frank Lampard, England thrashed Azerbaijan 5-0 at home and Christian Eriksen's side picked up another valuable victory.

The England squad then spent four days training at the Red Rebels' Newton Heath training base before heading to Wales for a trip to the Millennium Stadium to take on Wales away.

This time Eriksen once again opted for a centre-back combination of Curtis and John Terry, with Rio Ferdinand on the bench and Campbell not even in the squad, while Eriksen put Ismael on the bench as Rooney's replacement due to Owen suffering a minor foot injury in training.

Under the leadership of David Beckham, England faced Wales with a rebellious attitude and showed their determination to win this game from the beginning, attacking the Welsh defence in turn, and finally with two goals from Wayne Rooney and substitute Ismael, England defeated Wales 0-2 away.

Although Beckham failed to score and assist, his outstanding performance in the game was unanimously praised by the outside media, especially his excellent and consistent performances in successive games, which made people expect high hopes for him and his England team.

But for the general hype of the outside world, Beckham is deliberately low-key, he believes that the team still needs a long time to run-in, and there is still a 1-point gap with Poland, the game against Poland in September is the key, but if you want to go further in the World Cup, it requires the team to work together, and at the same time, you need to run in a set of mature and stable technical and tactical play and lineup as soon as possible.

…………………… With England winning two games, the Red Rebels also won on another battlefield.

In the just-concluded UEFA Executive Committee in Nyon, a total of four stadiums were involved in the final competition for the UEFA Champions League final in the 06/07 season: the Red Rebels Stadium from Manchester, the Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece, the Olympic Stadium in Rome, Italy, and the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia.

After careful consideration and analysis from the application to the present, UEFA finally made the decision to place the venue for the UEFA Champions League final in the 06/07 season at the Red Rebels Stadium in Manchester.

A UEFA spokesman said the team had carefully examined the Red Rebels Stadium and found that the facilities were modern and the technology met the requirements for hosting a heavyweight competition such as the European Champions Cup final.

It is reported that UEFA's assessment evaluation of the Red Rebels Stadium is very high, especially the radiation of the surrounding business circles, as well as the atmosphere of the Red Rebels Stadium, which led to the Red Rebels Stadium finally defeated Greece, Rome and other stadiums, and became the venue for the 06/07 European Champions Cup finals.

It's an honour and a challenge for the Red Rebels, because who wouldn't want to be a part of an event held on their doorstep?

The draw for the Champions Cup top 8 knockout round also gave birth to the Champions League top 8 knockout round of 4 matchups, of which the Red Rebels faced Italy's Juventus, in last year's League Cup, the Red Rebels also met the Serie A giants, and finally won the opponent with difficulty, this time home and away.

The other match in the same zone as the Red Rebels is Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid, and the winner will play the winner of the Red Rebels vs Juventus in the semi-finals to determine a team in the final.

The two matchups in the other zone are the Milan derby between AC Milan and Inter Milan, which is the most talked-about match in the last eight knockout rounds, while Chelsea meets Monaco, Carlo Ancelotti's team has basically been crowned by the media as a semi-finalist, and one has been drawn.

The first leg is scheduled for 5/6 April and the second leg is scheduled for 12/13.

Due to the tight schedule, as soon as the draw came out, the Red Rebels coaching staff immediately launched a series of information collection on Juventus, and the club was like an efficient machine, all kinds of data and information were collected and summarized, and soon turned into stacks of data and tapes, which were sent to the coaching staff.

For Juventus, the Red Rebels are no strangers, and Mourinho knows a lot about Capello's tactics when he coached Juventus, because Capello's tactical philosophy in charge of Juventus is completely different from when he was in Rome, typical of 1:0ism.

Just like the strategy formulated by many English media for the Red Rebels after the draw results came out, whether it is home or away, never let Capello's team score first, because once Capello's team takes the lead, then the next result will definitely make you depressed to vomit blood.

"Defending the counter-attack, this is Capello's tactical characteristic, before his team has scored, it may be possible to find a hole, but once he takes the lead, then I'm sorry, the rest of the time is equivalent to rubbish, he will do everything to grind with you, and finally you have to vomit blood and accept defeat, even if he scores in the first minute of the game!"

This is typical Capello Doctrine!

It can be said that this passage vividly depicts Capello's tactical thinking of coaching Juventus, but it is not comprehensive, because even if it is defense, it is necessary to pay attention to skill, but it is very profound to put forward a point, that is, Capello's team cannot be allowed to score, especially valuable away goals.

How to fight?

When Mourinho put the question on the table and asked it to the coaching staff, everyone had confusion and distress on their faces.

Yes, Capello's team is definitely a hard stubble that all teams in European football do not want to encounter, they counterattack sharply, but the defense is solid, in the face of such a team, you attack, you can't start, defense, may not be reliable!

Not to mention the coaching staff, even Mourinho himself has a headache.

Capello celebrated in an interview with the media after the draw came out, saying that his team had drawn a draw and played away to the Red Rebels, 0-2.

"Don't doubt that I'm talking big, I've found the right for this team and we'll settle this battle at the Red Rebels Stadium!"

This is Capello's exact words, but don't think that the Italian is crazy, in fact he is not stupid, he is playing psychological tactics, because the Red Rebels are not good at stubble, let alone soft persimmons that can be pinched by anyone.

But when Mourinho saw Capello say it on TV, he burst out laughing.

"Maybe, Jim, I mean maybe, we can be a little harder on ourselves!"
