Chapter 142 Old Fox Ferguson
On October 2011, 10, on this very special day for Chinese people, Li Mo went to Manchester with the team. In the seventh round of the Premier League, they were about to challenge the overlord of the Premier League, the Red Devils Manchester United.

Before the game, Ferguson directly announced that Rooney, who was absent due to injury in the previous game, would play today, without any smoke bombs, and directly showed his card to play Sheffield United.

For Manchester United, they are bound to win this game, and they have taken the complete initiative in terms of strength. It seems that there is really nothing to hide against Sheffield United.

On the Sheffield United side, after Speed ​​and Li Mo's speeches and enlightenment, the players are now challenging Manchester United with a positive attitude.

They are not worried about losing. There is indeed a big gap in strength. This has to be admitted, so they simply let go of playing against Manchester United, just like the training content of Speed ​​​​drill, using Manchester United's defense to try them. Now the attacking and overall pressing ability.

The defense led by Maguire will naturally undergo a great test, but this is also a good opportunity for experience.

Even if you play four or five games against the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, the training of the entire defense may not be as great as playing against Manchester United. The process is painful, but it is also the most rewarding.

After all, Zhongwei, how can he grow without being abused?
Even if Ramos grew up being abused by Ronaldinho in La Liga, and Maguire was abused by Rooney, it seems reasonable.

After unloading the psychological burden, the Sheffield United team behaved very relaxed after arriving in Manchester.

The pre-match stepping and warming up were all carried out amid laughter and laughter, which surprised the local media reporters in Manchester.

"A team made up of young people really doesn't have any pressure."

A reporter sighed on the sidelines.

Sheffield United is doing well now, the players are young and talented, and they are receiving more and more attention. The top game between them and Manchester United can be regarded as the most popular game in this round of the league. Therefore, at Old Trafford, many reporters They all entered the scene early and prepared to shoot the material.

The players of Manchester United were also discussing the recent performance of Sheffield United during the warm-up, especially Li Mo's performance.

Although Brown and O'Shea transferred and left Manchester United, they are meritorious players of Manchester United after all, and they also keep in touch with their old teammates.

Sheffield United beat Sunderland in the last round, but Li Mo bullied O'Shea and Brown enough. It's impossible not to attract the attention of Manchester United generals with this strength.

"Wayne, that kid has already scored seven goals, don't you feel the pressure?"

Evra joked to Rooney with a smile as he stretched before the game.

Lu Xiaopang smiled confidently, "My opponent this season is only Sergio. Li has performed well recently, but he still needs time to prove himself. After the [-]th round of the league, he will still be ranked. If he is in the top five in the scorer list, he is qualified to be my opponent."

Rooney missed the last round of the league due to injury. Currently, he has scored nine goals in five games and is in a hot state. Aguero below him has scored eight goals in six games.

The two were rushing forward on the scorer list. At first, other shooters couldn't touch their tails, but Li Mo caught up abruptly by relying on his hat-trick in the previous game.

But Rooney is still not worried. At the beginning of each season, there will be some unknown shooters in the top ranks, but as the season unfolds, after more than 20 league rounds, those shooters will return to their proper positions.

Except for a few seasons, which player who can compete for the league golden boot is not a long-established striker?
Rooney actually recognizes Li Mo's strength, but Li Mo is still too young. Rooney thinks that Li Mo may score [-] or [-] goals this season, but wants to compete with him for the Golden Boot?It is simply a fantasy.

Only Aguero, who Xia Chuang transferred from Atletico Madrid to Manchester City and scored goals against him in the previous rounds, is his recognized opponent.

Others such as Adebayor, Dzeko, and Defoe are simply not in his eyes.

Moreover, Berbatov and Carlos Tevez, the golden boots of last season, are destined to be unable to achieve results this season.

Berbatov's relationship with Manchester United is very embarrassing because of the contract renewal issue, and he has been reduced to a substitute. Although Rooney sympathizes with this teammate's experience, he can't change anything.

Tevez is even more nonsense. He only won the Premier League Golden Boot in Manchester City last season. This season he directly fell out with the club, and now he can't even play.

As for Van Persie, who scored [-] goals last season and ranked third in the scorer list, Rooney does not think he will pose a threat to himself.

A sick guy, the kind who plays one game and rests three games, wants to win the Golden Boot?

Let's think about how to keep healthy first, um, although Van Persie doesn't seem to have encountered any injuries at the beginning of this season.
it's OK!When it comes to winter, Van Persie will always be injured, old tradition~
Rooney thought for a while, and still felt that as long as he overwhelmed Aguero, he would be the Golden Boot this season.

The state is good, the team he belongs to is the dominant player in the league, and his teammates and coaches support him.

In a word, the advantage is in me!
The other players on Manchester United's side were just joking with Rooney, and they are now confident to help Rooney get the Premier League Golden Boot.

After all, Rooney has this strength. This season, Brother Xiaosha has been reduced to a substitute. Rooney is the absolute core of the striker. The team's resources are tilted, and it is reasonable to get a golden boot.

Li Mo also doesn't know what the Manchester United players are thinking now, otherwise they will definitely laugh out loud.

Don't look at Rooney and Manchester United being so strong at the beginning of this season, but not only Rooney can't win the Premier League Golden Boot this season, Manchester United can't win the Premier League championship this season either.

Van Persie has been injured for so many years, but this year's ability to resist injuries is at full strength. He directly scored [-] goals in the league and strongly suppressed both Rooney and Aguero.

Of course, General Fan, who was finally promoted for a while, was poached by Manchester United next season, leaving only a legend of a little boy to Arsenal.

However, Van Persie insisted on winning the league Golden Boot for two consecutive seasons. Lu Xiaopang failed to win the Golden Boot in the season with the best personal data. I have to say it is a pity.

But now Van Persie has not yet started. In the Premier League, Rooney is indeed the most dazzling shooter, and it is normal for more people to be optimistic.

※※※

After the warm-up of the two teams, as time went by, the Old Trafford stadium gradually became full. Under the attention of countless media and fans, the match between Manchester United and Sheffield United started on time at [-] pm England time.

Sheffield United has a regular starting lineup, a four-four-two starting formation is more balanced, while Manchester United has a slightly changed formation, which looks like a four-five-one formation.

Among Manchester United's five midfielders, Carrick and Fletcher started as double midfielders, Anderson played as right midfielder, Nani played as left midfielder, and the midfielder turned out to be Park Ji-sung?

This is rare. Park Ji-sung usually doesn't play as an attacking midfielder when he plays. Speed ​​didn't understand Ferguson's thoughts for a while.

But as the game unfolded, after Sheffield United got the ball and started to organize the attack, Speed ​​and the Sheffield United players felt bad.

Park Ji-sung didn't come to attack in Sheffield United's half at all, but to pull Drinkwater into stealth with him!

Defensive players come forward, specially restraining the play style of the organization core retreating!

Ferguson was still old-fashioned, and he didn't target Li Mo or the two sides of Sheffield United. He directly killed Drinkwater, the core playmaker of Sheffield United.

With a pair of Park Ji-sung and Drinkwater who are physically fit and difficult to defend, Manchester United is simply making a lot of money.

With the double midfielder combination of Fletcher and Carrick again, it will be even more difficult for Sheffield United to quickly pass through Manchester United's midfield without Drinkwater's organization.

The two wingers attack sharply, but someone has to pass the ball, right?

Brother Drinking Water's performance is limited, and the other midfielders in the team are allowed to organize and dispatch, and the effect is much worse.

Speed ​​patted his forehead, gritted his teeth and looked to the other side. Ferguson smiled very "kindly" at the moment, and he couldn't tell that he had made such a ruthless move on the field.

Without Drinkwater's scheduling and delivery of the ball, Sheffield United's offensive frequency cannot be increased, and the number of offensive rounds cannot be increased. How can they play against Manchester United?

And Manchester United also relied on the number of midfielders to start to control the ball and advance steadily.

Both Nani and Anderson are capable of passing and shooting. Although they are not top-notch, they are both threatening.

The two of them retreated to the midfield to help control the ball, and they could also dribble the ball forward and top the striker, which provided great help to Rooney.

The combination of Fletcher and Carrick has organized Manchester United's midfield in an orderly manner. No matter how much Medel can grab, there is no way to grab the second. The configuration of double goal points in the backcourt makes Manchester United's team run very smoothly.

"Damn it, it's still been spotted, Dongchuang must buy another person!"

Speed ​​thought helplessly in his heart, besides the lack of bench depth for Sheffield United, there is only Drinkwater at the core of the midfield, and there is no second stable organization point. There was no team to target before. Sheffield United Relying on Brother Drinking Water alone, he can also play a smooth offense.

But now Ferguson has seen this shortcoming of Sheffield United and arranged tactics in a targeted manner, which made the whole game show a one-sided situation.

However, the Sheffield United players on the field naturally have a way to deal with it. They are aware of the shortcomings of their own lineup, and Speed ​​usually asks the players to practice relevant tactics.

Drinkwater put his energy into defense, and Park Ji-sung just followed him, because the ball was not passing from Drinkwater's side very much, and Maguire started to get the ball.

No ink mark, just a long pass to Li Mo, and Sheffield United's entire frontcourt began to move around Li Mo.

Manchester United's defense today consists of Evra, Ferdinand, Jones and Evans.

Vidic was a little injured and did not enter the squad.

Faced with such a defense that seemed incompatible with the status of the Premier League hegemon, Li Mo smiled.

Evra and Ferdinand still have oil, but they are too old.

Evra is 33 years old, and Ferdinand is almost [-]. Sometimes Li Mo can't figure it out. With so much transfer funds every year, why is Manchester United unwilling to spend money on a world-class defender?

After Ferdinand and Vidic left Manchester United, Manchester United's defense has never reached the world's top level.

What is the difference between the defense against Manchester United and the defense against Chelsea?

Rush and you're done!
Li Mo will choose to take the ball and do it alone in this game. If the two sides don't come, he will compete for Maguire's long pass and then come by himself.

Ferguson has targeted tactics, and Speed ​​also has simple and rude tactics to find Li Mo, and the fun is just beginning!
