649 Ferguson's Wish

readx;

Time seemed to freeze, and the entire Old Trafford stadium fell into a deathly silence. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It took three seconds for the scene to erupt in a noise that could almost overturn the entire Old Trafford stadium, but it was unusually mixed, with cheers, curses, disdain, and cheers...... It is not difficult to imagine that they all come from the mouths of two opposing groups of fans, and it is naturally impossible to reach an agreement.

No one would have imagined that what was supposed to be a close match turned out to be a personal stage for the Red Rebels, with Manchester United once again becoming the green leaf next to the protagonists.

It had only been 41 minutes into the game, but the score on the pitch had become 0-2, and the Red Rebels took the lead again at Old Trafford, with the home team in front and the visitors behind, and they were still two goals ahead in one go.

Judging by the first 41 minutes of the game, Manchester United had little chance of coming back from defeat to win.

It's not that the players are sloppy, it's not that they don't work hard enough, they lack fighting spirit, it's not that they're afraid of the Red Rebels, on the contrary, all 11 players on the pitch have shown their best side, they are hungry to beat the Red Rebels, they want to beat a super team that has been called the king of Europe.

But in the end, they found it difficult!

In the 26th minute, Beckham's accurate diagonal long pass was transferred to the right side, Messi failed to take advantage of Taiwo after stopping the ball, and chose to cross, Van der Sar was a little hesitant to attack or not, Xiao Xiaoluo rushed into the penalty area, grabbed before Ferdinand, jumped to the top, and scored with a header, 0:1!

The Dutch goalkeeper's performance has declined this season, at least in terms of competitive form, both in concentration and judgment, which obviously has something to do with his age, especially in the Premier League with such fierce competition, he is inevitably a little overwhelmed, and his first mistake in this game directly caused Manchester United to concede a goal.

The other person to blame for conceding the goal was Rio Ferdinand, whose lack of concentration was once again revealed, and the lack of chemistry between him and Van der Sar, both of whom thought the other would make a move, only to have an own goal and lead to tragedy.

When Ferguson conceded the first goal, he kept shaking his head, very helpless.

In Philip? After Mex's arrival, Ferguson laughed that he had the new Blanco, and Manchester United's backline found a stable cornerstone, and in the previous games, the combination of Mexs and Ferdinand was really good, the two complemented each other's characteristics, and the cooperation was quite harmonious.

But in this game, facing the Red Rebels, the problems between them were immediately exposed.

If someone is responsible for the first goal conceded, then the second goal is the result of the Red Rebels' individual ability.

Aguero faced Mexes in the middle, and he used his skills and flexibility to find an opportunity in the front of the dense penalty area, passing behind him between Mexes and Ferdinand, and Xiao Xiaoluo inserted in the back row and fired a powerful volley to break through Manchester United's goal again, 0:2!

It was a very demoralizing goal, because everyone knew that against the Red Rebels, there was no precedent for coming back from two goals down to win back the score, or even a reversal.

'Ronaldo looked very excited, his brace at Old Trafford took his league goal tally to 21, well ahead of the top scorers, followed by Liverpool's leading striker Fernando Torres with 14 goals in 16 games, and third in third place by Ronaldo's team-mate Sergio Aguero with 12 goals.

"Long before the start of the game, everyone is offering advice, Manchester United wants to defeat the Red Rebels, must find ways to restrain Mourinho's pseudo-striker trident, whether it is Ronaldo and Aguero who are in a hot state of goal, or Messi, who is a little sluggish, the Red Rebels' trident attack power is the best in Europe, which is terrifying."

"But in the 41 minutes of the game, Ferguson's side didn't have much to do in this regard, especially the marking of Ronaldo and Sergio Aguero, which gave the two a lot of chances, and although United also created a few good scoring chances in attack, Cech was solid and United were never able to break through the Czech goalkeeper."

The game was steadily led by the Red Rebels, with Beckham, De Rossi and Essien composed of three midfielders, both offensive and defensive, hard, thick and creative, especially Beckham's wind-scratching mid-long pass, which frequently threw bombs directly behind the Manchester United defense, making Manchester United's back line never dare to press too high.

Combined with the interceptions and pressing of Essien and De Rossi in midfield, there was a bit of a disconnect between United's front and midfield, and although they were given a few chances with the player's individual ability, they were never able to convert them into goals.

In this situation, only Ferguson himself knows that he is defeated!

It's not that he lost tactically, after all, whether it's offensive or defensive, no matter how you choose, it's not wrong, but the problem is that his team can't beat the Red Rebels in an offensive state in the end.

In the past few years, Manchester United has not defeated the Red Rebels, but in general, the contest between the two teams, Manchester United is less wins and more losses, and the Red Rebels are Manchester United's bitter master, especially in the last two games of last season, Ferguson is even more eager to peel the Red Rebels and cramp.

This season, the team is strong, and he wants to beat the Red Rebels in the open, but in the end, the Red Rebels scored 2 goals in the first half, which made Ferguson feel helpless and very unwilling.

"We should tweak our tactics a little, Sir!" Queiroz came to Ferguson's side and said cautiously.

At this time, only he dared to remind Ferguson what he should do, after all, the relationship with him Ferguson has been based for many years, and if he were someone else, he probably wouldn't even dare to get closer, because Ferguson was like an angry lion at this time.

Ferguson gritted his teeth and stared at the players on both sides of the pitch, not making a sound.

He was unwilling, unwilling to go to defense like this, but reason told him that if he didn't turn to defense, Manchester United's defense would be broken by the Red Rebels again, especially in the second half, once the player's physical fitness declined, Aguero, Ronaldo and Messi would have more opportunities at Manchester United's back, and it would be more deadly.

After conceding the first goal, Ferguson was still thinking about getting back into the score, and if he conceded the second goal, he had to be cautious.

Not all teams can be used as living teaching materials for the magic reversal, and not any team can casually stage the miracle of the big reversal, even if it is a team that has always been good at reversal, it is impossible to achieve a reversal in every game.

"Let Fletcher warm up!" Ferguson thought about it for about a minute, and finally reason prevailed over emotion.

There is still a chance to beat the Red Rebels, but if this game is allowed to continue like this, it could turn into a complete rout for Manchester United, which will cause immeasurable damage to the trend of Manchester United throughout the season.

For the Red Rebels, Ferguson has only one thought, perverted!

A perverted team, a bunch of perverted players, a perverted manager, oh, and a perverted chairman!

Although he is close friends with Xiao Yu, Ferguson himself has fantasized countless times that if Xiao Yu had not established the Red Rebels at the beginning, and after making a fortune, he bought Manchester United, then everything the Red Rebels have today, Manchester United will definitely do better and better, but this is just a fantasy.

Ferguson has not yet reached the age where he has to rely on fantasy to get by, and he still has pursuits!

A Champions League title, which has been Ferguson's pursuit over the years; Completely defeating the Red Rebels is Ferguson's new goal in the past three years, and he will never retire without completing these two wishes!

…………………… The score is 0:2, but in fact the scene is not as advantageous as the score shows, at least from the field of view, the Red Rebels and Manchester United in this game, the situation of the two sides is more inclined to be evenly matched.

Jose Mourinho was not blinded by the score in the first half, he clearly saw the tenacity of Manchester United, and also saw Ferguson's heart not to be outdone, so he was very sure that Manchester United would make adjustments in the second half and would become more difficult.

'In the second half we had to retract, the three lines were tighter, they were in line with each other, the full-backs were as far forward as possible, and I bet Ferguson would have played counter-attacking in the second half and they would have made a big deal with the wings.

Quaresma and Robinho are both very fast and technically good players, and if Ferguson were to switch to defending in the second half, he would have used both players to make a fuss, first seducing the Red Rebels to press, and then using their individual ability to break the deadlock and create chances to score.

"Especially on the right side of the town where Maika was guarding, Robinho didn't have many chances in the first half and didn't show the quality he should have, but if I were Alex Ferguson, I would definitely focus on the left side in the second half!" Mourinho pointed at Mika? Richards said.

The England new international had a decent first half, Robinho didn't have many chances, and he naturally didn't make mistakes, but he didn't help much in attack, and the performance of the whole first half could only be considered average.

Although he was selected for the England national team, although he performed well in Droisden, everyone is optimistic about Mika? Richards, more because of his body and potential, so after the Red Rebels recalled him, they focused on honing his defensive skills, such as positional sense, defensive skills, defensive awareness, and so on.

Let's be realistic, Maika? In addition to his body, Richards' defensive ability is actually not strong, especially when he is only 19 years old, and once he is seized by Robinho's old fritters, he is likely to be gnawed to the point that there are no bones left.

Young people, it's either good or bad!

I believe that even if it is not Ferguson, even if it is replaced by any manager, he will definitely focus on attacking Mika? Richards' right flank.

"Don't worry, boss, I won't let him pass my line easily!" Richards assured with certainty.

The corners of Mourinho's mouth lifted and he patted Richards on the shoulder, "Very good, Mika, restrain Robinho, you are the hero of our victory!" ”

Richards' head was hot, and he immediately nodded.

"If I were Alex Ferguson, I saw that we played so steadily in the first half, and in the second half, we would definitely adjust our tactics, we wouldn't take the initiative to press out, they would play defense, we couldn't press too high, we couldn't give them space to counterattack, so we must pay attention to the echo and connection between the three lines, understand?"

Mourinho's voice resonated in the quiet dressing room.

"Understood!" The players said yes in unison.

........................ "Both players were back on the pitch and United made a change at half-time. ”

'Ferguson replaced Diego with Fletcher, who was not a regular player at United this season and was even a little marginalized, but in the recent Carabao Cup he scored twice and became the biggest contributor to United's promotion, showing good form, and Ferguson clearly wants to use him to further strengthen United's midfield.

In the past few years at Manchester United, Fletcher has changed from the earliest player with a creative surname who is known for his skills, and was even once hailed as the successor of Beckham, to slowly adding more engineering elements and transforming into a player with both attack and defense.

But it is also a coincidence that after Beckham left Manchester United, he transformed into a midfielder and came to the middle, and as his successor, Fletcher was also depressed at Manchester United, and now he has become a versatile player, right midfielder, midfielder, and right back can play, but in this game, Ferguson obviously also wants him to play the right position in the middle of the midfield.

Fletcher's responsibility is clear, help Gary? Neville restricts Ronaldo, while Senna and Hargreaves build a wall in front of the backline, with the trio acting as a firewall in front of United's defence.

After Diego went off, Wayne Rooney dropped back to central midfield, Robinho and Quaresma were pushed up, and it was clear that Ferguson was trying to use their pace to counter-attack, and Rooney was also a very defensive player.

Jose Mourinho watched from the sidelines as United made adjustments after the start of the second half, and everything was not far from what he had expected, with the only difference being that Ferguson chose Fletcher instead of Sully? Muntari obviously values Fletcher's tactical execution, as well as his decent offensive ability.

Although they all guessed correctly, Mourinho was not happy at all, but frowned.

Sometimes tactics are predictable, but no matter how good the tactics are, no matter how perfect the tactics are, the players need to execute them on the pitch.

At present, the tactics of the Red Rebels are on the right track, and the key is whether the backline can withstand Manchester United's counterattack, especially Maika? Richards' right side.

You know, Ronaldo is the most beautiful left winger in football today, but Robinho's momentum is not lost to him at all, and the Brazilian is invincible in the Premier League and Europe, which allows Ferguson to hand over the attacking burden to him.

On the other hand, Maika? Richards, experiencing this kind of much-anticipated Red Devils derby for the first time, will be a test of his mental endurance and his handling of top players.

Every professional player is honed in this constant test, and if he survives, he will improve, and he will be able to go more brilliantly, and if he can't survive, he may begin to stand out from the crowd.
