future king

Three days after the derby, the second game of Manchester United's so-called back-to-back games began!

Manchester United have only allowed their opponents to score two goals in the past eight visits to Villa Park, but after Manchester United's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa away, all Manchester United fans can't help but secretly rejoice, because If it weren't for the poor ability of Aston Villa players to seize opportunities, Manchester United might even leave this once blessed land with a bloody defeat.

And the player who opened the gate to the opponent and staged the ultimate defensive end is precisely the left-back Evra, who was hailed by Ferguson as the team's "most stable man".

Evra's performance this season has always been unstable, but thanks to Manchester United's solid defensive system, some of Evra's negligence and mistakes on the defensive end did not cause disastrous consequences for the team.

But in this game, Evra's left flank has almost become the opponent's defensive weakness. Aston Villa's only 20-year-old teenager Albrighton performed like a player in front of Evra. A world-class winger who threatened United's defense with almost every touch.

The young player who has just risen this season once said in an interview with the "Daily Mail": "I will not be frightened. I will treat my opponent as a young full-back in the reserve game. I focus on the game itself. It's not the atmosphere of the game." As a result, Evra really became a "rookie full-back" in front of Albrighton.

In the 15th minute of the game, Albrighton singled out Evra for the first time and won. La directly swayed, then easily dodged the space, and completed the cross before the defensive player intercepted.

In the 22nd minute, Albrighton made a comeback, and Evra blindly made a steal. As a result, Albrighton flicked the outside of his foot, shaking Evra again to complete the cross. Fortunately, Ferdinand, who was guarding the front point Push the ball over the baseline.In the 33rd minute, Evra made an extremely amateur error in receiving a pass back from his teammate in the backcourt. He stopped the ball 10 meters away and was almost successfully intercepted by Albrighton who quickly inserted.

Former England coach Graham Taylor expressed gloomily during the half-time commentary that he had never seen so many low-level pass and stop errors in a Premier League game over the years. [

But Evra's nightmare was not over yet. In the second half of the game, Albrighton's performance became more active. The former "world's number one left-back" was almost played by his opponent wantonly.

In the 46th minute, Albrighton successfully tackled Park Ji-sung from the side and rear, and then rushed to the left side of the penalty area after hitting the wall with Ashley Young. At this time, Evra was already far behind. The quality of Brighton's cross is not high, otherwise Abanglaho, who has already outflanked in the center, will get the chance to single out Van der Sar.

In the 53rd minute, Downing sent a high-quality cross from the left. Albrighton, who is only 1 meters tall, rushed out from behind Evra, headed the ball and passed the goal.In the 75th minute, Albrighton scored the ball past Evra near the center circle, and then used his speed to make a long-distance attack. Fortunately, Vidic made up his position in time and intercepted the ball.

Evra's ineffective defense eventually led to bitter fruit.In the 70th minute, Abanglaho took the ball from the wing, Evra lost his position defensively, and Vidicina pulled to the wing to make up for it, but was blocked by the opponent and made a cross. Ashley Young, the referee decisively awarded a penalty kick, Ashley Young scored the first goal for Aston Villa.

In the 75th minute, Aston Villa launched a quick counterattack. Ashley Young went straight to the left and Downing made a low pass to the center from the left side of the penalty area. , rewriting the score to 2-0.

Evra was to blame for the two conceded goals.

In addition to being full of flaws on the defensive end, Evra's proud left assist did not exert its due destructive power.

Evra's only threatening pass came in the 31st minute, when Manchester United won a free kick. Evra feinted and rushed to the penalty area. A low pass near the bottom line in front of the goal, the ball passed the goal.

In addition, Evra rarely showed his face on the offensive end, especially after Nani attacked the left side in the second half of the game, Evra was almost reduced to a spectator next to Nani, and could only watch Nani use his personal ability to create threats , I can't help myself.

According to opt's post-match statistics, Evra made 41 passes in this campaign, only 32 of which were in place, and the pass success rate was 780%. The number of breaks, counter-breaks, and threatening balls are all 25.

"Sky Sports" gave Evra the lowest 5 points in the game, and commented slightly conservatively: The whole game has not entered the state.On the other side, Albrighton scored a game-high 8 points and was awarded the best player in the game. "Sky Sports" commented on him: he never stopped running, crossed wantonly, and harvested a grain Deserved goal.It is worth mentioning that the valuation of Albrighton by the German "Transfer Market" is only 22 pounds, while the valuation of Evra is as high as 2376 million pounds, which is 100 times that of Albrighton. many.

I have to admit that Evra has passed the peak of his career due to his strong dependence on physical fitness.

Although Mourinho once intended to bring him to Real Madrid this summer, in fact, Evra was only the second choice of the "madman" after the failure of the introduction of Ashley Cole.Although the two are about the same age, Evra's decline is obviously faster than the more elegant Ashley Cole.

During Manchester United's Triple Crown, Evra was once known as "the world's number one left-back". Back then, with his abundant physical strength and comprehensive offensive and defensive capabilities, he was able to take almost all the left.However, times have changed, and Evra is now 29 years old. For a full-back, this age does not allow him to run back and forth as frequently as he did when he was young, especially in the case of double matches a week. Evra The physical problem is more prominent.

More importantly, Evra also injured his ankle in the "Manchester Derby" in the middle of the week. He and right back Rafal were included in the team's injury list at the same time. [

But in this game, Rafal's position was replaced by Brown, but Evra still appeared on the field.Starting from October 10th, Manchester United played 30 games within 15 days. Evra started all of them and played a game every 5 days on average. Evra's age does not allow him to undertake such a game density.Ferguson must consider finding a qualified substitute for the "least rotatable player".

Another possibility is that what Ferguson is looking for in the transfer market is not Evra's substitute, but Evra's substitute.

Manchester United will clean up the team after this season, and Evra, who was previously considered to be included in the team's future plans, may be transferred by the team.

"The Sun" revealed that Ferguson has forgiven Rooney's previous criticism of the club's behavior and plans to let him start next Saturday's game against Wigan Athletic.

Considering that Evra once criticized Rooney's remarks that he "doesn't deserve to wear a Manchester United jersey anymore", the relationship between the two will become a huge hidden danger in the Manchester United dressing room.

The rumors of Evra's recent transfer to Real Madrid seem to indicate that this former left-winger is very likely to leave Manchester United.And this player, who Manchester United only spent 550 million pounds to introduce, is expected to bring about 2000 million pounds in transfer income to the team. From a business point of view, this is undoubtedly a successful deal, but from a competitive Looking at it from a different perspective, it may not be so easy for Ferguson to find a young youngster who can completely replace Evra.

Manchester United narrowly escaped death in the away game and finally took 1 point from Villa Park. After the game, Ferguson admitted that the Red Devils were lucky to get 1 point.

"We conceded maybe six goals in the second half, they hit the woodwork twice and their right-winger Albrighton wasted two absolute chances. Otherwise, frankly, we would have been screwed. We waited too long It took time to get back the passion, the desire to win in our games. We didn't show it until we were 6-0 down."

"Villa players played with enthusiasm, a lot of tackles today were justified, a lot of unreasonable, but the referee kept allowing the game to go on, we saw a great game today. You have to be against the Villa players in 90 minutes Great kudos to the team for their continued passion, they tackled, they fought, the seething stands inspired them to do it. Their young players, their energy, made it a tough day for us."

"Today was different from the away games we've drawn before and we were worried about losing points like before. But when you're 0-2 down and you've got 10 minutes to go, you can end up with 1. You should be very happy."

Manchester United's next league round will be against Wigan Athletic on the 20th of this month, and Ferguson confirmed that Rooney may be able to play at that time.Manchester United's official website said Rooney will meet his teammates next Monday, where he will undergo a medical examination.If he passes the medical examination, he will once again play for Manchester United, and this game is likely to be next Saturday's home game against Wigan.

"Rooney had a good week in the United States. He trained very hard. We achieved what we wanted. He completed two training sessions a day on two days and three training sessions a day on the other three days." Ferguson told " A reporter from Sky Sports said.

Li Yu is still the most stable player in Manchester United's formation. With one goal and one assist, Manchester United will get 1 point.

Many reporters have also played a rule of Li Yu this season. He broke out suddenly in the second half of the second half, and his goal efficiency was astonishingly high. Gorgeous, Li Yu's performance in the second half of the second half became the key.

When the opponent's physical fitness declines, the power of Manchester United's No. 9 will fully explode. Of course, there is no constant entanglement before. In the second half of the second half, the opponent's physical fitness will not become so unbearable.

Li Yu has become the only guarantee for Manchester United's offense. Is the offensive ability of the Premier League overlord really suffering from dependence?

Let alone whether there is any dependence, at least Manchester United don't have to worry about the offensive power now.

Ferguson is still trying to find a suitable replacement for Manchester United's goalkeeper before retiring.

The Norwegian Alsance club officially announced that goalkeeper Lindegaard will join Manchester United in January, but has since deleted the statement.However, almost all the media in the UK have confirmed that Lindegaard will join Manchester United with a transfer fee of 1 million pounds in the winter.

The 26-year-old Lindegaard has played 4 times for the Danish team so far. In the warm-up match with the Czech team in the middle of the week, the city gate guarded by Lindegaard was not broken by the opponent. "The Sun" stated that the reason why Manchester United signed Lindegaard was because Ferguson believed that he was experienced, and very cheap, and the price was not low.Lindegaard has been a Manchester United fan since he was a child, and he regards the legendary Manchester United goalkeeper Schmeichel as an idol, but Schmeichel is not optimistic about his little compatriot. He thinks Lindegaard is not worthy of Manchester United, and Ferguson Serious mistake was made in this matter.

In an interview last week, Schmeichel expressed that he was very optimistic about Reina to succeed Van der Sar, and he "doesn't believe the rumors of Lindegaard joining Manchester United at all."

But now that the rumors have been confirmed, when asked if Lindegaard is worthy of England's giants, Schmeichel replied very simply, "No. We are talking about Manchester United now. You can bring in talented players. You can buy good young players, but you don't want to bring in him.

Manchester United's No. 80 goalkeeper must have the ability to keep Manchester United in [-]% of the games.There are too many goalkeepers to choose from, but the basic criterion is that he can perform well and win trophies for this club.Manchester United goalkeepers have to be of a very, very high level and have experience. "

Although Schmeichel is not optimistic about Lindegaard, the Danish national team is already close to Manchester United. "Guardian" said that the Alexandria club eo Hoff and chairman Hagensen will fly to England today to complete the final negotiations on the agreement.Solskjaer's agent, Saul Bacon, has brokered a link between the two clubs, with Ferguson suggesting United were worth the risk on Lindegaard.

This summer, Manchester United sold the third goalkeeper Foster to Birmingham; after the end of this season, Van der Sar, who will be 40 years old, is very likely to announce his retirement; and the second goalkeeper Kuzzak has never won the trust of Ferguson. "The Guardian" stated that the Polish national team may also leave next summer.Although Ferguson is very optimistic about the 20-year-old Amos, he is very inexperienced.Therefore, Manchester United may buy two goalkeepers in a row, and Lindegaard may only be the second goalkeeper.

The British media claimed yesterday that Manchester United is about to buy the 1500-year-old Spanish genius goalkeeper De Gea for a transfer fee of 20 million pounds.

But Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo refuted reports that a de Gea deal with Manchester United was imminent. He insisted that Atletico Madrid did not talk to anyone about De Gea. The Spanish goalkeeper's contract with Atletico Madrid until 2013 year expires.In an interview with the Spanish newspaper AS, Cerezo said, "No one has talked to us about it, and no one has asked us anything about the agreement. We hope that he will be in the future for a long time. They are all Atletico Madrid players."

Although the chairman of Atletico Madrid refuted the rumors, Ferguson will not easily give up De Gea, who he has personally inspected.

Earlier this season, Ferguson and Manchester United goalkeeping coach Steele both attended De Gea's performances. "The Guardian" stated that Manchester United is very likely to purchase two goalkeepers, namely De Gea and Lindegaard, so that De Gea will succeed Van der Sar and Lindegaard will replace Kuzzak.If it is really difficult to buy De Gea, the Dutch goalkeeper Stekelenburg, the German goalkeeper Neuer, the French goalkeeper Lloris, and the Russian goalkeeper Akinfeev are all targets that Ferguson can buy; It is almost impossible for Reina, who I am highly optimistic about, to join Manchester United, because it is impossible for Liverpool to be in the mood to do this deal with Manchester United.

However, the "Offside" website said that Manchester United is very likely to introduce Italian goalkeeper Buffon next summer.

Barzarini, Italy's most respected football journalist and popular mesetter, revealed this week that Manchester United are the only players who are actually chasing Buffon.As long as Buffon recovers from his injury and can play frequently in Serie A, Manchester United will introduce the 32-year-old Buffon next summer. Previously, Italian media also revealed that Buffon has already looked for a house in Manchester.

It is not yet known whether Ferguson will buy De Gea or Buffon, but it is almost certain that Lindegaard will not be the number one goalkeeper for Manchester United next season.

In the Premier League held later, Manchester United finally got out of the bad luck of back-to-back two consecutive draws.

Manchester United have won all 11 Wigan games in history, scoring 35 goals and only conceding 4 goals, especially with two 5-0 double kills last season.Rooney returned from injury and entered the bench. This is the first time he has entered the game lineup since his contract renewal.

Wigan did not attract enough attention from Sir Alex, and Li Yu did not appear in the squad.

At Old Trafford, Manchester United finally regained the feeling of facing the ball. In fact, Ferguson's self-confidence is also well-founded. Manchester United does not need to exert all their strength at home against Villa.

Evra, who performed poorly in the last round, was ashamed and courageous, giving Manchester United the lead.

Manchester United broke the deadlock in the 45th minute. Park Ji-sung made a cross from the right. Evra headed the ball from the left edge of the penalty area and the ball went into the net.This is his first goal for Manchester United since April 2007 and his first league goal in four years.

Manchester United expanded the score in the 77th minute. Rafael made a cross from the right, and Hernandez, who was defending, dived and scored with a header from 10 yards.

2:0, winning Villa also allowed Manchester United to finally catch up with Chelsea's points. In the case of the first game, they had the same points as the top Chelsea.
