future king

The last time he faced Arsenal at home, he opened the scoring for Manchester United, which opened the prelude to the crazy scoring performance of the Red Devils; 3 points; he scored goals in 3 consecutive games, setting a new record in his career; he performed positively throughout the game and made some gains... Who is this?Manchester United No. 9 Li Yu is also!

Once again in the first game, and once again facing a strong opponent, Li Yu showed a strong desire to win and continued his good luck in scoring.

Manchester United's No. 9, who is favored by Ancelotti, also proved with practical actions in this game that his efforts will eventually pay off: in the 27th minute, Li Yu, who did not get a good chance after the opening, got the ball in the counterattack and made great strides He dribbled into Arsenal's penalty area, but unfortunately shot in a hurry when his center of gravity was unstable, and finally deviated from the target. This was one of the few opportunities he got in the first half.

In the second half, in the 64th minute, Li Yu took advantage of his opponent's mistake to get a one-handed goal. Under the interference of goalkeeper Szesny, he barely hit the goal. The moment the slowly rolling ball entered the goal, it was finally chased back in time. Tesack made a clearance; in the 67th minute, Mata's through ball from the center of the frontcourt accurately found Li Yu, but the latter was unstable in receiving the ball in the penalty area and lost a good opportunity; until the 81st minute of the game, Varen West Asia created a threat on the right. His cross allowed Li Yu, who had already run to the position, to take a leisurely kick. The latter volleyed with his right foot and scored, completely sealing the victory for the team.

Scoring three consecutive games is definitely not accidental, at least it proves that Li Yu has gradually found the feeling of scoring goals in his new position, taking on more responsibilities, and now Li Yu is more "stable".

"Sky Sports" scored 7 points for Li Yu, the second highest in the game after the game.The local media "Manchester Evening News" even offered him a game-high 8 points, praising him that "the winning goal is the best reward for an afternoon's hard work."

At the same time, Manchester United's official website also pointed out, "Li Yu continues to start Manchester United's important games. When Manchester United needs to score goals, he can always return the team with a performance full of energy."

opta的赛后数据同样证明着曼联新核心的优秀：全场比赛4次射门3次射正，打入1球，完成1次解围并且赢得2个任意球。

It is not difficult to see that Manchester United's No. 9, as the core of the offense, is aiming more and more in place, which can improve the efficiency of his goals to a certain extent.Former Manchester United legendary striker Ruud van Nistelrooy is a good example: the reason why the Dutchman was able to "goal like picking up grass" on the field has a lot to do with his superb shooting skills and his attitude of never shooting at will.

This is the 25th goal Li Yu has scored for Manchester United this season. It is almost certain that the number of goals in the whole season will reach the three digits.

It is particularly worth mentioning that Li Yu has a strong ability to fight tough battles. He has scored goals against three strong teams this season.At home in the league 3-0 Tottenham, Li Yu took the lead and contributed a pass and a shot; in the league defeating Arsenal 8-2, Li Yu once again opened the scoring for Manchester United; Li Yu scored a beautiful goal in a 2-1 away victory over Manchester City in the Total Cup.

Manchester United coach Ancelotti also expressed his affirmation of his lover after the game: "Our No. 9 is unbelievable. He has very good speed and movement on the field, always around the defenders, always ready to attack. He may have scored four or five goals today, and had a few good chances, but unfortunately he was not lucky. But his goals are still crucial, and he has continued to score goals in the first team. He's done really well for a young lad."

Although it was once equalized, Arsenal still lost to rival Manchester United 1-2 in the end. This season, they were double-killed by Manchester United, and the Red Devils conceded 10 goals in two games. The old hatred of 2-8 has not been reported, but new hatred has been added, but the technical statistics of the shooting ratio of 3-6 and the ball possession rate of 48.7%-51.3% show that Arsenal cannot gain an advantage over Manchester United even in their own home court. It is not wrong to be double-killed by an opponent.

这场失利也让阿森纳遭遇了英超三连败，这是温格在任期间阿森纳第3次遭遇英超三连败，前两次分别是在2005年的12月和2007年的3月至4月。

时隔5年之后，阿森纳又一次在英超赛场遭遇三连败，在近7轮联赛中也只取得了2胜1平4负的战绩(0-1曼城、2-1阿斯顿维拉、1-1狼队、1-0女王公园巡游者、1-2富勒姆、2-3斯旺西、1-2曼联)。

The 22 rounds of the Premier League this season have ended, Arsenal's points are only 36 points, 5 points away from fourth-ranked Chelsea, 10 points away from North London derby rivals Tottenham, 15 points away from Manchester United, and even more away from Manchester City, who is at the top of the standings. 18 points short.

Now, a rather embarrassing reality is in front of Arsenal-the Gunners are as much behind Manchester City in points as they are ahead of the penultimate Wolves in the standings.

Before this campaign, Arsenal captain Robin van Persie once vowed: "Since I played for Arsenal, I have never experienced (2-8) such a defeat before. Losing with such a score is really painful. But now that is history, in football you always get new opportunities to correct the past, for the spirit of the team, and above all for the fans, we want to accomplish this (beating Manchester United). We Never forget how great the support from the fans was, even after that 2-8 game they supported us and we wanted to make it up to them. We knew that to get the 3 points from this game we had to play our best In good form, everyone at Arsenal is focused on winning this game. As an individual, you have to play well, but also through tacit teamwork to beat Manchester United. I will not give up the Champions League, not at all, hope We were able to prove it to everyone by beating Manchester United."

However, although Van Persie worked very hard and scored an equalizer, his wonderful goal was still in vain due to the overall strength of the team.

Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger also pointed to club chairman Hill Wood before this campaign: "From a financial point of view, not being able to qualify for the Champions League will indeed be a very serious blow; but we will make preparations for not being able to participate in the Champions League every year, so this It won't be a disaster either"

"For me that was (catastrophe) because I wanted to compete with the best teams, we were going to be in the top four, qualify for the Champions League and anything else was not good enough."

Arsenal has entered the Champions League for 14 consecutive seasons. However, after losing to Manchester United in this campaign and suffering a three-game losing streak, Arsenal's hope of competing for No.4 this season and qualifying for the Champions League has become increasingly slim.Wenger also admitted after the game: "We are in a very difficult position after this game because we can no longer afford to lose."

However, it is not easy for the current Arsenal to avoid unnecessary loss of points and overtake Chelsea?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the thickness of Arsenal's lineup cannot be compared with that of Chelsea. In this game against Manchester United, the 18-year-old reserve player Yanneris was even replaced; moreover, the rich and powerful Chelsea has signed England international Gary- Cahill came to strengthen the team's relative shortcomings in the central defender position, and it is possible to further enhance the team's strength by investing money in the transfer market. In comparison, Arsenal's signings are dwarfed up.

It is obvious that the team's lineup needs to be strengthened, but with only 10 days left in the winter transfer window, Wenger still did not make a statement about signings after losing to Manchester United, but said: "Flower Money is not the goal, buying good players is the real goal. We need our players to come back from injury. People don't realize that we have 10 players out (injury). You can see, we are in those We created good chances in the second half of the game without the injured and it was important to get those injured back."

This also seems to imply that Arsenal, which pinned their hopes on the return of the injured, does not intend to invest money in signings.

The poor record and worrying prospects have revived public opinion demanding Wenger's dismissal.

Steven Howard, a well-known football expert in "The Sun", wrote an article a few days ago that although letting Wenger get out of get out of class is a kind of blasphemy for this outstanding French coach, the reality is very cruel. Although Wenger can guide the ball on the field The team plays pleasing football and is also very discerning in the cultivation of young players, but these alone are not enough. Due to years of no championships and tight money transfer policies, Arsenal are now in a situation where they cannot retain core players and cannot buy them. A vicious cycle to good players.

Failed to retain the main players such as Ashley Cole, Adebayor, Clichy, Fabregas, Nasri, etc., and let Jose Enrique, Scott Dann, Gary Card Hill and other strong players have slipped away; if they cannot enter the top four this season, then ace like Van Persie who is loyal but eager to participate in the Champions League may also be able to provide Champions League opportunities and higher salaries after the end of the season. The team poached.If that happens, Arsenal may even be excluded from the ranks of the Premier League's top teams.

And Wenger himself once said in an interview with "Team Daily" that he will evaluate his coaching performance at the end of this season and decide whether to continue to stay on the basis of this.A number of British media pointed out based on this interview with L'Equipe that if Wenger fails to lead Arsenal to the top four in the Premier League standings at the end of the season, he may be pressured by public opinion and his own pressure. Feel guilty and "take the blame and resign".

To avoid this "disaster", Arsenal need to seize the last period of the transfer window as they did after losing to Manchester United last time, and use a wave of targeted and aggressive consecutive signings to strengthen the team's lineup.Only in this way can Arsenal have enough confidence and capital to launch a strong impact on the top four in the Premier League in the next 16 rounds.

Arsenal lost 1 to 2 to Manchester United in the crucial battle. The media revealed that the Gunners players targeted a person after the game. He was the Russian player Arshavin, and his prospects in Arsenal have cast a shadow.

"Daily Mirror" stated that after the loss, Arshavin became the "public enemy number one" in the locker room, and many players were dissatisfied with his attitude on the court.In the game with Manchester United, Arshavin replaced the teenager Chamberlain, but the 30-year-old Russian czar has found it difficult to find his former style.

The newspaper said that in the locker room, the players stayed for a long time and discussed the reasons for the loss. Some people angrily accused Asavin of his performance since the season, and questioned the Russian's unwillingness to come back to defend.In addition, Arshavin was also asked to speak less to the Russian media, because some of his criticisms of Arsenal can often be reflected in the UK and have an impression on the team.

In this locker room discussion, Van Persie and Szeziny were the two who spoke the most and the loudest. In the end, the players expressed that they must work harder in the future and strive to get out of the trough.

"Daily Mirror" said that Arshavin's season's decline is very obvious, Arsenal may consider selling him before the transfer window closes, and Zenit St. Petersburg is very interested in buying back Arshavin.In public, coach Arsene Wenger has been supporting Arshavin, hoping that he will get back to form, but the newspaper said that the professor has gradually lost his patience with the Russians.

Former Arsenal midfielder Parlor believes that there is a problem with Arshavin's attitude, and Arsenal should give Chamberlain more opportunities and abandon the Russian."I don't like Arshavin," Parlor said.

"During the game, Arshavin looked listless and didn't seem interested in playing football. I don't know if it's because he didn't get many opportunities or didn't play enough time. I don't know what's going on in the team, but the sooner Arshavin leaves the team , the better for Arsenal, maybe the better for himself. He must be frustrated that he can't play the main force now, even if he gets a chance on the field, he can't grasp it. For Manchester United, he was replaced, and he seems to have no interest in the game. If I wouldn't have put him on, I'm not the manager."

"Chamberlain was brilliant, completely different. I met Thierry Henry after the game and he said to me that Chamberlain was different and that for Arsenal and England he was a future talent to look forward to."

The good news for Arsenal is that Henry and Mikel Arteta are on the verge of returning for Sunday's FA Cup clash with Aston Villa.The two missed the battle against Manchester United due to injuries. Among them, Henry's injury was fine, but his physical fitness was not [-]%. Wenger decided to let him rest for a game, while Arteta had a calf injury, but he should be able to play this weekend.In addition, full-back Sagna and Gibbs are expected to resume training this week, but Wilshere still needs to continue to rest.

Manchester United's next league rival, Stoke City, is a veritable "City in the Sky".The average height of the Stoke City team is 1 meters, which is the team with the highest average altitude in the Premier League. There are 87 players in the team with a height of 9+. Don't forget the terrifying "Delap Grenade".

In the context of the prevalence of ground technology across Europe, Stoke City went the other way and launched a "high-altitude bombing", which can definitely be said to be a strange flower in the European arena.

Against Stoke City, which has a simple and rough style of play, the more experienced Lindegard may be a better choice than the thinner De Gea, but it can be said that he is afraid of something, Lindegaard is in He was injured and left the field during training, which means that De Gea will face repeated tests from the towers of Stoke City tonight.

According to "Daily Mail", "Daily Telegraph", "Sun" and many other British media reports, Lindegaard injured his ankle during training and screamed on the spot. The Manchester United team doctor was worried about Lindegaard's injury. To the ankle ligament, they put a protective boot on the Dane's right foot, and Lindegaard also returned to his home from the Carrington training base with the support of crutches.

Even if De Gea is reluctant to face Stoke City, he must replace Lindegaard to keep the goal for Manchester United tonight. The latter may even miss Manchester United's consecutive Premier League devils against Chelsea and Liverpool due to injury.Whether the young Spaniard can get out of the shadow of poor performance on the field and overcome his demons will be a highlight of this game.

In Manchester United's 1-2 loss to Liverpool in the FA Cup, the Red Army had developed a novel corner kick strategy against De Gea's weakness in handling high-altitude balls. A wall that can only be seen in rugby games was erected in front of De Gea, blocking the Spaniard's attack route and allowing Agger to easily score with a header.After the game, De Gea was criticized by the media. The former captain Roy Keane, who has always criticized Ferguson's practice of reusing young people, severely criticized the Red Devils in the last summer transfer window. De Gea, he He even thinks that Manchester United is likely to lose in the goalkeeper this season: "De Gea looks a little nervous. If you have a timid goalkeeper, then he will affect the performance of the entire team. You can recall that Manchester United has comfortable. The days of Mechel and Van der Sar, they were the key to winning the league. Joe Hart looks to be exerting a favorable influence on Manchester City, and the goalkeeper may be the difference between the two teams.

Since Manchester United's humiliating 2-3 home loss to Blackburn on New Year's Eve, De Gea has been taken down by Carlo Ancelotti in the starting line-up. Ancelotti, a young player, still chose to give De Gea a chance in the focus battle with Liverpool, although De Gea did not show his best performance.

But Ancelotti still supported the Spaniard. He said in an interview with the "Mirror": "We all know that De Gea has little experience in the Premier League and he is slowly adapting. De Gea is only 21 years old. For him, we have to take a long-term view. In recent games, we need more experienced goalkeepers, so I chose to let Lindegaard start."

Now that the Dane is injured and unable to play, An Shuai can only support De Gea unconditionally. In the previous confrontation between the two teams, De Gea performed very well and helped Manchester United score 1 point in the away game. Maybe the first round His performance can give him a little confidence.Manchester United has not allowed any mistakes in the process of chasing the leader Manchester City, especially in the goalkeeper position. It is no exaggeration to say that Manchester United's game against Stoke City will be De Gea's redemption battle.

However, the opponent Stoke City does not intend to give up this good opportunity to score points in the away game. Shawcross, who has played in the Manchester United youth academy for 6 years, said in an interview with the "Mirror": "To be a guest at Old Trafford , we are nobody but we hope to try to get 1 point. Our record against Manchester United (7 games, 6 losses and 1 draw) is not good, but we have drawn Liverpool away and hope we can do the same at Old Trafford can do that."

Facing menacing opponents, the Red Devils need to be ready to meet the challenge. Lindegaard's injury has increased Manchester United's first-team injury list to 12 people. The only good news is that Ferdinand can already play.According to the "Mirror", Ferdinand has just recovered from his back injury. He sat on the bench in the game against Liverpool and is likely to make an appearance in tonight's game.

The winter transfer window is about to close. Although the team is currently full of injuries, Manchester United is still in the transfer market. The treaty negotiations have still not made the slightest progress.According to the "Daily Mail" report, the British Championship team West Ham United coach Allardyce very much hopes to sign Morrison, West Ham United is trying to persuade Manchester United to release him.
