Nori was not deeply involved in Prowse's transfer. He only had to give instructions, and soon, after the national team game ended, Southampton refocused.
In the next period of time, Southampton will be under greater pressure. In addition to continuing to compete in the league, there are two games against Ajax and the League Cup competition has also begun to reignite the war. In such a situation
Under such circumstances, every game has to be fought hard, and if the main players can play, they must play, so there is really no chance for Prowse to exercise.
If Southampton's main lineup is strong, then there will be some games that are not stressful enough to train new players.
But Southampton's strength is not that strong now.
In the next round of the league, Southampton's opponent is West Ham United.
The Hammers have performed well at the beginning of this season. They are currently ranked ninth. Considering that they also have 11 points, which is only two points less than Southampton. From this perspective, West Ham United is also Southampton.
Puton's fierce rival.
"What a strong opponent. We beat Manchester United and tied with Manchester City. Our performance fluctuated because of the Champions League. What about West Ham United? They faced Villa, Swansea, Norwich, and Richland in the first seven rounds.
It is normal for a mid-to-lower team like Lemm to have better results, plus they are a newly promoted team... But they showed their prototypes in the last game against Arsenal, and they lost without any temper. They have several good players, such as
Former Bolton goalkeeper Jaaskelainen, Andy Carroll who was very popular in the past two years, midfielder Kevin Nolan... But compared with us, they are far behind." Noriya was in the locker room.
Said disdainfully.
The players all laughed. Although most of the international players had just played for the national team for a long time, Ji Ya knew that this period of time is when he has to grit his teeth and persevere. He cannot rotate anymore, otherwise he might not be able to play well in the Champions League.
The league didn't play well either.
It seems that Southampton cannot yet expect to perform extremely well in both the Champions League and the league.
In this game, he sent most of the main players, goalkeeper Navas, defenders Klein, Chambers, Font and Blind, midfielder Matuidi, Drinkwater and Vidal, forward
Nolito, Willian, Benteke. Except for Ronaldo and Mkhitaryan, two players with slightly poor physical conditions who were rotated, the others are the main players.
Without the two of them, although there are two less breakthrough players, in the Premier League, this lineup has stronger running and its ability to break through from the wing is even better.
After the baptism of the Champions League, Southampton's young players may not have substantially improved in terms of ability, but their patience and observation of the game have gone up a notch.
In the fierce confrontation in the first half, the two sides failed to score a goal. Shortly after the start of the second half, Benayoun broke through on the wing and created an opportunity. He passed the ball to the back point, and Nolan advanced to the back point.
Scored the first goal with a poke.
Upton Park Stadium immediately burst into loud cheers, but what the West Ham fans didn't expect was that this would be the beginning of their nightmare!
Southampton quickly equalized the score.
After William received Vidal's pass, he made a sharp diagonal break into the penalty area, and then passed the ball back in an inverted triangle. Vidal in the middle of the penalty area missed the ball, and Drinkwater, who followed in the back row, shot the ball hard.
Flying into the blind spot of the goal!
Just five minutes later, Nolito broke through from the left and passed in. William knocked the ball to the center immediately. Benteke followed up and volleyed the ball, and the ball hit the net for the second time!
Southampton, who had completed the reversal in a short period of time, did not relax at all, but continued to launch a violent attack. West Ham United, whose mentality was somewhat unbalanced, was immediately beaten by them.
After a two-on-one with Klein on the wing, Willian raised his foot and sent a beautiful curve ball. The ball flew into the penalty area. Benteke, who was running in place, jumped high and made a domineering dive.
Head to the top!
Three to one, Southampton expands its lead!
Southampton players ran over to celebrate with William - although William did not score a goal, he assisted all three goals, a hat trick!
This is indeed worthy of praise.
William had 14 league assists last season, which ranked second in the Premier League. The first was Manchester City's David Silva, who had 15 assists, and the third was Manchester United's Wallen.
West Asia, thirteen times.
This season William has already had six direct assists, and his condition is quite outstanding.
At this time, West Ham United had no fighting spirit, and Southampton's offense continued. Before the end, Vidal broke through and was tripped. Southampton got a penalty kick. Willian made a penalty kick and scored a goal.
and three assists, completing his perfect performance in this game!
"I'm very happy to win this game. Two consecutive league wins prove that we are starting to get back on a better track...William? He has always been a top player, and this started from the first day he joined our team.
I knew it... Last season he was the player with the second most assists in the Premier League. I thought everyone knew this... There is no problem with our players, Prowse? I think he can play in a team
The team competing is better than staying at Southampton."
Noriya said with a smile at the post-match press conference, obviously he was still in a good mood.
Although this game is away from home, and they will soon fly to the Netherlands to play the third round, Southampton is still in a good mood.
Ajax's performance in the Champions League this season was not very good, but after they regained the league title last season, it has been proven that a new Ajax team has emerged again. The core of their midfield is Danish Eriksen.
Although other players seemed to be average, around Eriksen, Ajax performed quite well.
Although they lost the first two rounds, it doesn't mean they don't have the strength to fight back.
In this game, they proved it.
Originally, Noriya planned to stabilize first in the away game, and then wait for opportunities to attack, trying to score goals by relying on his midfield running and frontcourt counterattacks. As a result, Ajax played quite conservatively. Except for forwards Babel and
Except for midfielder Eriksen, everyone else is basically defensive.
"Frank DeBoer really knows how to..." Ji Ya complained speechlessly.
Who would have thought that Ajax, sitting at home and losing the first two rounds, would still use defensive counterattacks against Southampton under such circumstances?
This is simply undesirable!
Ji Ya didn't expect Ajax to do such a cool thing, so at this time, he could only complain.
