After a tough pre-season training session, Southampton finally ushered in the new season.
The first game is against Manchester United at Wembley on August 11th.
Noriya doesn't care about this game. After all, it doesn't matter to Southampton whether they can win such a cup, as long as they play well in the next games.
But for Moyes, this game is very important. Whether he can win a championship at Manchester United is not only important to Manchester United, but also to him.
Manchester United's support for Moyes this summer was okay. Although they didn't spend too much money, in addition to Blind, they also spent more than 30 million to buy his direct descendant Fellaini and Crystal Palace forward Zaha.
, the other main players have not been let go either, and in terms of signings, they are pretty strong.
So in this game, Moyes sent out his strongest lineup, and Manchester United's players were also very motivated. Facing Southampton, who snatched the league championship from them last season, they had a common enemy.
a feeling of.
Ji Ya sent out a lineup that looked a little weird.
Goalkeeper Gulacchi, right back Rudiger, center backs Font and Otamendi partner, left back Alonso, midfielders Matic and Casemiro serve as double midfielders, and the two attacking midfielders are Mu
Hitarian, De Bruyne and Ronaldo serve as the second forward, with Lukaku stepping forward.
Such a 4-4-2 lineup makes people feel a little awkward. In fact, they did seem a little awkward during the game. Although they suppressed their opponents in the midfield, their frontcourt offense was not as sharp as before.
Manchester United withstood Southampton's attack in a passive situation. At this time, Manchester United, which retained their offensive configuration, showed their experience. Van Persie used a smart header in front of the goal to grab the point and follow up the shot.
With one goal in each half, Manchester United defeated Southampton 2-0 and won the Community Shield!
Moyes, who finally won his first championship in so many years, was very excited. After the game, he thanked Ferguson and the Manchester United management, and then said that he would lead Manchester United to do better.
Only then did everyone realize that Moyes, who had excellent coaching results in many people's minds and had been coaching for so many years, had only now won a decent championship!
And it’s a Community Shield championship, not a serious cup competition. He hasn’t even won a League Cup!
Thinking about it this way, it seems that apart from a league championship, all Jiya got is some scraps, but the accumulation of these numbers is already super amazing!
Noriya calmly stated at the press conference after the game that he did not particularly care about the outcome of this game because the team had just come out of the fatigue of training and the joint training had only been for a week. There was still more to come.
It needs a good break-in.
A reporter asked him what he thought of Lukaku's performance. The Belgian wasted at least two excellent opportunities in this game. There were also several times such as stepping on a bicycle and knocking himself out, dribbling the ball past everyone but leaving the ball behind.
In terms of magical operations such as staying in place, Noriya said that Lukaku is an excellent striker, but he is still young and needs time to grow up slowly. He is very optimistic about Lukaku's prospects and will continue to use him in the future.
.
The reporters were not surprised by Noriya's answer, because Noriya has always supported players. However, Southampton fans felt that the young Belgian forward was completely incomparable to Benteke. Think about last season.
Benteke scored consecutive goals as soon as he came here. How can this stupid big guy compare with Benteke?
Such comments made Lukaku suffocate. He was unhappy with Benteke, a competitor of the national team, last season. He originally thought that he would give Benteke a good look after returning to Chelsea, but the result was unpredictable.
, Benteke transferred to Chelsea at a high price, but instead came to Southampton as a backup...
Fortunately, head coach Ji Ya thinks highly of me, so I must perform better!
In the next week, Lukaku trained harder. Kiye did not let him gain weight, but let him stay more flexible and impactful.
"You are not a standard center, Romelu. You must recognize this, understand? Your running in the frontcourt, taking the ball, passing and grabbing points are the most important. You can be an all-around forward.
, let the wealthy families surround you and launch an attack... Yes, you have such potential, I believe in you, and you have to believe in me."
Recalling Ji Ya's words, Lukaku felt that he had more fighting spirit.
In the tactics of the Community Shield Cup, Noriya was actually testing the possibility of playing a four-midfielder, but now it seems that the possibility is not high. After all, Southampton does not have this habit, and there are no good players who can play wide in the midfielder.
.
Last season, Southampton's wing attack mainly relied on the forward penetration of the two full-backs, coupled with the assistance of wingers such as Willian and Nolito, but those two are pure wingers, allowing them to enter the center.
It was inappropriate to come here, not to mention that William is gone now.
Others, whether it is Ronaldo or Coutinho, they are all pseudo-wingers, because these two are not fast. They can occasionally get the ball on the wing, but if they are always on the wing, it is easy to create a breakthrough, but there is no way.
Completely get rid of your opponent's dilemma.
Therefore, three forwards are more suitable. Whether it is Ronaldo or Coutinho, they need to be close to the opponent's penalty area, but not too close to the opponent's penalty area, so that they can take advantage of their breakthrough or long-range shooting after getting the ball.
At the same time, it avoids the defects that their vision is not wide enough, their speed is not fast enough, their physical fitness is not good enough, and they are easily targeted.
There is no perfect player, it just depends on how you use him.
This summer, the top players in the Premier League have made a lot of moves. In addition to spending a lot of money on Southampton, Chelsea mainly introduced Eto'o on a free transfer to fill the vacancies in the midfielder, winger and center.
It was temporarily put on hold because there was no good candidate. Manchester City also continued to spend money after the new head coach took office. What made Jiya unhappy was that most of the players Pellegrini bought were La Liga players. Negredo, Navas,
Demichelis, the forward brought in Jovetic from Florence, and the midfielder spent a lot of money to dig up Fernandinho from the miners. Of course, this was mainly because Matuidi was robbed by Chelsea...
Arsenal really spent a lot of money this season. The players they transferred basically did not receive any money, which means they kept most of the main players, and then bought Ozil from Real Madrid for 40 million pounds, and 2,000 pounds.
Five million pounds were spent to buy Chambers from Southampton to increase the strength of the midfielder and central defender. Tottenham bought a bunch of people after losing Bale, Lamela, Eriksen, Paulinho, Sol
Aldado...
In the new Premier League season, competition will obviously become more intense.
