820 for you, boss!

Some people joked that the FA had foreseen the strength of the Red Rebels this season when arranging the schedule, so it deliberately welcomed Manchester City in the league immediately after arranging for the Red Rebels to win the championship, giving Van Gaal's team a chance to take revenge. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Coincidentally, this game was arranged in the gap between the two Red Devils derbies in the last eight of the Champions League.
But unfortunately it is precisely this, sandwiched between two Champions League knockout games, Manchester City is also worried about dealing with Liverpool, the first leg of the 1-1 draw away to Liverpool, back home Manchester City must go all out.
In this case, Van Gaal is unlikely to give it his all in the league.
Sure enough, both teams coincidentally chose to play on the bench, but judging from the score, the Red Rebels' bench lineup is better than Manchester City, at least Walcott, Ozil, Aaron? The likes of Aaron Ramsay outperformed their peers, notably Theo Walcott, whose England winger had two shots and one pass in the game to keep the Red Rebels on a 33-game winning streak and extending their season-style winning streak.
Judging from the media rendering with a strong smell of gunpowder before the game, after the game, although Manchester City lost the game 3:1, the media gloated in the past, but praised Van Gaal's wisdom.
Instead of clinging to the hopeless Premier League rankings, rather than clinging to the battle of spirits, it is better to recharge and wait for the second leg of the knockout round to beat Liverpool and reach the semi-finals, which is a good compensation for Manchester City.
If they can win the Champions League, even if they lose the Premier League, this season will be a fruitful season for Manchester City, after all, they have become the king of Europe.
And three days later, Manchester City sat at the city stadium to welcome Liverpool, Van Gaal did his best to play, recuperating Manchester City and entangled in the Champions League qualification area compared with Liverpool, both physical and technical tactics are better, although Liverpool stubbornly in the case of two years behind, twice to pull back the score, but in the end Manchester City still with Sneijder's stunner, eliminated Liverpool.
The Dutch midfielder has also become the hottest and powerful midfielder in Europe with his outstanding performance in the Champions League, and many experts have praised him as the attacking core of this Manchester City team.
On the second day of Manchester City's defeat of Liverpool, the Red Rebels also defeated Manchester United 0-1 away with Messi's goal, and sent the Red Devils out of the Champions League with an aggregate score of 4-1.
As a result, the four teams in the semi-finals of the Champions League have all been released, namely the Red Rebels in the first half against Droisden, and Manchester City in the second half against Chelsea, and it is still the Premier League team that monopolizes the Champions League semi-finals.
For such a situation, fans can be said to be both familiar and helpless, they have all seen the strength of the Premier League team, but they are also eager for more teams to rise and break the monopoly of the Premier League, but in the end there is nothing they can do.
UEFA intends to abandon the principle of avoidance in the draw from the knockout stage of the round of 16 in order to limit the strength of Premier League teams, but this proposal is still on the agenda, and even if it is finally passed, it will not be implemented until next season.
This season's Europa League has to be held in South Africa in the summer, so all competitions have to be completed by May 15, with the exception of the Champions League final and the UEFA Cup final.
So in the latter part of the season, the schedule becomes extremely intensive.
After playing the Champions League, the Red Rebels immediately ushered in the 34th round of the league, away to Hull City, and the substitute Red Rebels slaughtered the opponent cleanly 0:4 away to achieve 34 consecutive wins in the Premier League.
Two days later, the team travelled to Stamford Bridge for an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea.
Although playing at home, Chelsea's season is also intensive, and the physical condition of the Blues' players is no less than that of the Red Rebels, especially in the rotation of players, and Rijkaard cannot get the same generous conditions as Mourinho in terms of squad and bench depth, making his rotation very limited.
Two days ago they came close to Bolton Wanderers, but thanks to Nicolas Anelka's late goal, the Blues were saved and now the Red Rebels are looking poor for the Chelsea players both physically and mentally.
On the contrary, the Red Rebels, although Mourinho played away, he boldly promoted young players to play the main role, including Walcott, Ozil, Wilshere, Rodwell and other young players all got the start in this game, and performed well, and finally helped the team beat Chelsea 0:2 away.
Walcott continued his red-and-purple form, passing and shooting in the game to help the Red Rebels reach the FA Cup final.
On top of that, the likes of Wilshere, Rodwell and Nimar all excelled in the game, with many even suggesting it was related to the group of managers in the stands at Stamford Bridge.
David Beckham and Dunga were both in attendance for the FA Cup semi-final, and the players they focused on were undoubtedly fringe internationals from England and Brazil.
Walcoat is a weapon under David Beckham, and it is logical that he will be selected for the England national team, but whether Wilshere and Rodwell can be selected depends on their form, and the strength they showed in this game is indeed up to Beckham's requirements.
Another important key to whether these two young players can go to South Africa with the team is the degree to which Beckham relies on the Red Rebels' system, after all, these two youngsters are players who have grown up under the Red Rebels' tactical system and are very familiar with this system, which is what makes them more advantageous than other players.
In addition, Wilshere can play wingers, midfielders, central midfielders, and even playmaking midfielders, such a midfielder is indeed something that every manager cannot give up; As for Rodwell, he can play both as a midfielder and as a centre-back, and he has shown a very good level, and Beckham admires him as well.
It is unknown whether Nimar will be able to enter the Brazilian national team, but it is not surprising that Dunga values him, even if he is selected, after all, his performance in the Red Rebels is indeed impressive.
Of course, whether it is in terms of age, strength or experience, these three youngsters are destined not to become the protagonists of their trip to South Africa, even if they are all talented, but age and experience limit their performance, the South Africa World Cup will not be their stage, if Beckham and Dunga bring them to South Africa, there is only one purpose, the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
As for the other players in the Red Rebels, Mesut Ozil has already proven himself to be a worthy core player in the German national team. Thornton should not be in the Italian national team, as are the brothers Fabio and Rafael, who are still young and have great promises, and 2014 is their stage.
…………………… There is still a long way to go before the World Cup squad is finalised, but the Red Rebels' schedule is overwhelming.
After the FA Cup, the team ushered in the 35th round of the Premier League, and challenged Roy away? Keane's Black Cat Sunderland.
Jose Mourinho continued to use his starting line-up for the FA Cup, with only minor tweaks and modifications, and the youngsters lived up to Mourinho's high expectations, despite the away defeat to Roy? Keane's tenacious defensive tactics, but they still withstood the pressure and beat their opponents 0-2.
Wilshere was an eye-catching performer in this game, scoring twice and being voted Man of the Match, which also added some confidence to his selection for the England national team.
Three days later, the Red Rebels returned to the Butcher's Knife Stadium for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final tie against Droisden.
Jose Mourinho takes this game very seriously, but he is well aware of the knockout rules of the Champions League, and he has to play more aggressively and actively on the road than at home, taking the lead in attacking fiercely from the start.
This is also related to the Champions League's knockout stage away goals rule, which makes teams playing away from home often more able to let go, while teams playing at home are always worried about the number of away goals, so it is difficult to let go, especially in the first leg at home.
That's why the home-to-away schedule is so unfavorable!
However, Manuel Pellegrini apparently had guessed that Mourinho would use heavy pressing tactics in the first leg, so he started the game with a defensive footing, with Mascherano as the core of the defence doing well in this game, with the Blood captain and Gago building a defensive wall in midfield.
The Red Rebels' attack was a huge problem in front of Droisden's defence, and Manuel Pellegrini's side were organised defensively and did not give the Red Rebels too much of a chance.
As the game ticked by, Jose Mourinho's side were slow to find a way to beat Droisden.
At half-time, Mourinho made some adjustments to his tactics, but after the start of the second half, the Red Rebels' attack still looked thunderous and rainy.
Seeing that the team's attack was futile again and again, and seeing that the team's attack failed to open up the situation, Mourinho finally made a substitution adjustment, this time he replaced the underperforming Di Maria with Messi.
Messi was a little injured before, Mourinho did not let him start the game out of the idea of protection, just sat on the bench, and switched to using Di Maria, but Angel suffered from Leiton on the right side of the game? Barnes' focus on defense failed to show his best form.
As soon as Messi came on the field, his cooperation with Alves on the right side immediately showed its power, he made a clever two-one-one cooperation with Alves on the right side after the first touch of the ball, cut to the front of the penalty area, plugged straight behind, and the anti-offside inserted Kaka stopped the ball and stabbed it, but Joe? Hart reacted quickly and blocked the angle of the shot in time.
Although he failed to score a goal, Messi's performance on the right side after coming on the field was indeed eye-catching, especially the skillful cooperation and excellent tacit understanding between him and Alves, which was even more amazing.
2 minutes later, Messi forced a breakthrough with the ball on the right side, and Leyton? Barnes was shown a yellow card by the referee for pulling him down at the edge of the box when he failed to stop him, but unfortunately, Michael? Johnson's direct free-kick hit the wall and missed a chance to score.
Messi continued to play at a high level on the right and his form looked very exciting, but Droisden's defence looked solid and the Red Rebels couldn't find a chance to find the back of the net for a while.
........................ "Alves used his speed on the right to force a breakthrough, Leyton? Barnes had a yellow card and did not dare to defend fiercely, so he could only force him to the bottom line, and Alves cleverly used his speed to kill the bottom line and hoist the ball into the penalty area. ”
At the front point, Alves' pass reached the front point, and Messi, who was still at the front of the penalty area just now, had already entered the penalty area, grabbed the defender, and rushed to the top with a header...... Off! ”
"Messi's header is not what he is good at, but from his performance since he came on as a substitute, one has to marvel at the change he has brought to the Red Rebels, he activated the Red Rebels' attack, one shot on each side of the left and right feet, and now even his worst header."
"Messi's shot is really strong, you can see it from the performance after he came on the field!"
The fans at the scene also felt Messi's share of the score**, especially the changes he brought to the Red Rebels after coming on as a substitute, which was absolutely world-class.
The only regret is that the Red Rebels still failed to form a breakthrough!
Messi is in a hurry, the players of the Red Rebels are also in a hurry, every player is in a hurry!
It's been 80 minutes, and time is really running out!
Someone is right that it is really exciting to score a late goal, but it must be understood that a half is a classic, and if it is always like this, it must be the team's attacking problems!
The Red Rebels' performance in this game cannot be said to be bad, but De Roysden's defense is definitely super-level, and every player is unswervingly implementing the tactical arrangement of manager Manuel Pellegrini.
Kaka, Ronaldo, Aguero and others also tried their best, one by one, panting, they all wanted to help the team win, they all wanted to score at the last moment, but the key is that De Roysden is too tenacious!
In the 86th minute, the Red Rebels launched another wave of attacks, still a wave of attacks launched by Messi's right side, Alves entered the De Roysden half, and suddenly chose to cut inside, and suddenly picked up a pass at the front of the penalty area.
Otamendi quickly settled into his position, and after several years of experience in the Europa League, he has become a world-renowned right wing-back, especially in the card position, where his former centre-back resume has allowed him to perform better than other right wing-backs.
However, his height has become his biggest limitation, making it difficult for him to adapt to the requirements of European centre-backs, and after switching to right wing-back, he is also a weakness in high balling.
Ronaldo came first, relying on his height and excellent bounce power, before Otamendi, he shook his head and hit the goal, blasting Alves's pass towards Joe? Hart's goal.
Someone once counted that Xiao Xiaoluo's bounce power is actually not strong, and his real strength lies in his excellent ability to stay in the air, which makes him stay in the air longer than his opponents, and can make all kinds of technical moves more calmly.
It was the same this time, with his header hitting the near post very closely.
Joe? Hart was already on guard, but he was also taken aback, especially when he hit the goal with a header so close, he could only rush over, hoping to block the ball.
In fact, he did, his hand touched the football and blocked the ball out of the goal with his fist.
At this moment, the hearts of the Red Rebels fans all over the world were hung on their voices, and then fell heavily, sighing deeply, thinking that an attack was going to be on Joe? Hart's world-class performance came to naught.
But at this moment, a red figure appeared in the Droisden penalty area, and he sensitively judged Joe? Hart saved the ball and stood in the most advantageous position in advance, and when the ball came out, he just stopped with his foot and sent it directly into the empty goal.
Joe? Hart fell to the ground and he wanted to get up and make another save, but there was nothing he could do but watch as the shot went through Droisdon's goal.
“0:1! The Red Rebels have scored! It's Messi! Messi's goal in the 87th minute helped the Red Rebels open the door to victory! ”
"It was a valuable goal, Messi scored the winning goal at the most crucial moment!"
On the live broadcast screen, the figure of Messi who turned around and ran wildly appeared, he ran excitedly, pulled up the jersey on his body, and revealed a white T-shirt inside, which read: Dedicated to you, boss! Red rebels, keep moving!
Messi's gift appeared on all the TVs around the world that broadcast the live broadcast of this game, and he rushed to the bottom of the rostrum, he knew that Xiao Yu and the club's senior management were in a box above, and then he stood solemnly below, looking up with a reverent face.
The players scrambled to Messi's side, and they all clung to the Argentine one by one.
At this moment, the whole world knows why Messi is so excited, so hard, and so eager to score after he comes on the field, because he hopes that this T-shirt on his body can be seen by fans all over the world, and he hopes that Xiao Yu in the box can see the blessings he gave.
"Boss, go all the way! No matter what, as long as we are here, the Red Rebels will continue to move forward and continue to achieve more outstanding and brilliant results, this is our last promise to you, and we believe that this is also your greatest wish! ”
Although they didn't say it, all the Red Rebel players stood on the side of the court in unison, their expressions were resolute, and they all swore to Xiao Yu in the box above in their hearts.
At this moment, not only Xiao Yu felt it strongly, but even all the fans in the stands and all the spectators in front of the TV, they all clearly felt the strong determination of the Red Rebel players!
Perhaps, only at this moment can those opponents really understand why the Red Rebels are invincible!
