"Beep 721!" With the whistle of the referee on duty, the highlight of the seventh round of the Premier League this season - the red derby, has begun.
As for Liverpool, in terms of starting a center forward, Rodgers plays Olic but not Balotelli, which naturally makes sense.
This reason, after a few minutes of the game, fans with a little more experience quickly saw the suspicion.
Midfield control! Yes, Rogers chose Olic just to fight for this thing. Because what he used was not the skillful cooperation between Olic and Li Yi, but Olic's defensive robbery.
ability!
From the first minute of the game, when Olic entered the field, he had forgotten the fact that he was a striker and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the midfield attack on Manchester United.
It’s also -1, but because Liverpool temporarily gave up attacking, there was one more player in the area. The difference in the strength of the midfielders between the two teams is not big, so the result is by no means as simple as 1+1. Look at the field, there are more midfielders.
Liverpool, alone, easily had the upper hand in the battle for control of the midfield.
In this way, although Manchester United seems to be stronger than Liverpool on paper, the actual situation is that the Red Army actually takes the initiative on the field.
After the midfield opened, the Red Army's offense gradually took off. Less than 10 minutes later, the midfielders pressed forward to build momentum, forcing De Gea to run here and there, very busy.
-
He kept chewing gum in his mouth, his eyes seemed to be staring at the situation on the court without any focus, but Sir Alex Ferguson's head did not rest for a moment.
To be honest, before this game, Ferguson didn't think much of Rogers' ability.
Because in Sir Alex's view, although Magic Bird has achieved good results in leading the team, it is all the result of taking a wrong approach and is not universal in actual operations. Therefore, as a "disciple" of Uncle Bird, even if Rogers can give Magic Bird
Even if you learn 10% of the things in your head and lead the Red Army to fight against the now mature Red Devil, you won't be able to make any big splash.
However, the idea of looking down on the opponent was completely forgotten by Ferguson in less than 10 minutes.
Asking the center to retreat and participate in the midfield press is not something that no coach has tried before when other teams faced Manchester United, but Sir Alex Ferguson is certain that a team that can achieve the same effect as Liverpool on the field,
But there is none. Therefore, the root cause of the Red Devils' disadvantage on the field is definitely not this. It must be that Rogers has arranged some secret chess, which he has not been able to see for the time being.
It is precisely because of this that Ferguson now truly regards Rogers as an opponent.
Just kidding, how many years has Sir Alex Ferguson been a coach? Almost 40 years have passed since 1974. It can be said that Ferguson can feel the moves that coaches often use with his eyes closed.
But the current situation is that Rogers came up with some tactics that allowed the Red Army soldiers to miraculously suppress Manchester United. Sir Alex Ferguson was unable to fight back for a while.
Well, if he can achieve this, no matter whether he wins or loses the game in the end, Rogers is proud enough and can tell the world with his chest that he is no shadow of a madman.
"Bump!" With a big kick, Li Yi moved the ball under his feet to Royce on the right wing. Without any pause, Li Yi threw away the Manchester United defender and rushed towards the Red Devils half.
Speaking of which, Li Yi has not valued Rogers' abilities very much until today's game.
Rogers' arrangement before the game was relatively simple and easy, which was to let Olic recover and replace Li Yi as half of the defensive midfielder, constantly pressing, and then completely freeing Li Yi to roam the midfield.
Rogers' original words at the time were that Li Yi was fully responsible for the Red Army's midfield in this game. He was the head coach on the field. No matter what instructions he gave, other players could give their opinions after the game, but as long as they were still there,
Competition must be supported unconditionally.
Well, if Rogers was speaking to Balotelli, it can be foreseen that Liverpool will definitely be beaten by Manchester United on the court. Fortunately, the person Rogers is speaking to is Li Yi.
With a brain that is countless times more powerful than ordinary people, Li Yi himself does not have many concepts. When he thinks about it, his ability is just to analyze the opponent's next move and then predict it in advance, nothing more 721. As everyone knows
, under Rogers' suggestion, Li Yi, who has the "big power", also showed his extraordinary control over the game in this game.
…
As Suarez deflected away Manchester United defender Ferdinand and bounced higher than the goal, Liverpool's attack came to an end.
Shaking his head gently, Li Yi didn't feel much anxious about the Red Army's delay in opening up the situation.
Just kidding, although the boss thinks highly of him and Li Yi is very confident, no matter what, he will never think that the Red Devils built by Sir Alex Ferguson with countless efforts will be so unbearable in front of Liverpool.
one strike.
"Louis, pay more attention behind you and don't pounce too hard. Marco, you do the same. Ricardo, after the opponent passes you, you don't have to close too hard. I will fill in behind you. Steven, you should
Pay attention to Luiz's side. Well, Olic, please work hard in this game and run more behind me. Well, that's it."
Taking advantage of a free kick in the backcourt, after everyone gathered together, Li Yi, who had gradually become accustomed to the command position on the field, very decisively explained the next tactics.
But after hearing Li Yi's boss-like lecture, it was strange that none of the big names present had any expressions of impatience on their faces.
In fact, before the game started, they were still very dissatisfied with Rogers giving so much power to Li Yi.
However, as the game slowly unfolded and they discovered that Li Yi's tactics seemed to be really effective, everyone naturally adapted to it.
To be honest, Rogers came up with this on-court command much faster than his off-court command.
Because Manchester United is not a weak team, after falling into a quagmire in the midfield, there is actually no need for Sir Alex to say anything. The players themselves are making various minor adjustments all the time.
In this way, without Li Yichang's various on-the-spot responses, it would have been impossible for the Red Army to gain such a huge advantage and suppress the Red Devils.
Of course, this advantage is also temporary.
I believe half-time is enough time for Ferguson to thoroughly understand Rodgers' tactics from the sidelines.
When the time comes, Li Yi, who is not a coach, will be able to do his best no matter how awesome his on-court command is.
Or, there is no need to wait for the end of the half. After 20 minutes, Wang Laoji, the old demon on the Manchester United field, has already figured out a little bit about the Red Army's tactics.
Then, Liverpool was surprised to find that the Red Devils, who had always advocated midfield control, actually changed their normal behavior and started playing long pass rush with them.
Well, in this way, no matter how good Liverpool's midfield is, it will have no effect in an instant.
Using a fancy scorpion tail to stop Wang Laoji's long pass, Nani took the ball and quickly headed towards the baseline.
Speaking of this game, Nani was quite choked up.
Li Yi's various cares allowed him to play for 20 minutes, and he could count the number of times he touched the ball on one hand. At this time, Nani, who was "burning with fire", finally waited for the ball and did not play with it.
Looking at the Red Army's defense, which had done nothing before, it was almost impossible to bear his nickname.
Tianchao Studio
"Hey! Let's see! Manchester United has a chance!" the studio announced. After seeing the situation on the field, he changed his previous attitude and shouted excitedly.
Duanxuan's resurrection with full health is actually not without reason.
Because regardless of whether Xuan Xi likes Manchester United or not, as a Li Yihei, no matter who Li Yi’s team’s opponent is, he will definitely fall to that side decisively. Therefore, when Liverpool had the advantage on the court before, Juan Xuan made a speech
Not very positive.
Now it's different. Due to Manchester United's sudden change of tactics, this first long pass, it can't be said to have achieved good results. No, when Nani brought the ball to the vicinity of the Red Army's penalty area, Piszczek
After inserting the assist, the gap was too big, and Thiago Silva arrived belatedly.
"Ah! Nani passes! Van Persie has been waiting for a long time in the middle!!! He is still making breakthroughs!"
However, what made Duan Xuan vomit blood was that General Fan had already run out of space in the middle. As long as Nani passed the ball, he would most likely score before De Rossi. However, Nani's ball was not passed out.
.So, even though the emperor was not too worried about the announcement, everyone in the studio became anxious.
"Haha! Duanxuan, have you forgotten the nickname of Manchester United's bilateral side? He can't pass it! If he passes the ball casually, he still can't pass it? Haha!"
After hearing Duan Xuan's excited roar, Teacher Sun Liu teased him with added jealousy.
In the end, Manchester United's attack did not achieve the desired results because Nani delayed the opportunity.
Even because he failed to dodge the rebounding ball at the last moment, Nani was forced to cover the goal at will and failed to even get a corner kick.
The game continues.
After Manchester United changed their tactics, although they abandoned the midfield and simplified the tactics, sometimes, simple things can be hard to guard against.
No, after defending against Liverpool's new attack, after tossing and turning, the ball was once again sent to the feet of the forward Nani by Carrick's big kick.
Nani moved the ball forward gracefully, and Nani began his new challenge.
The last few times, facing his sister-in-law's failure, Nani felt very angry.
This time, when he saw Piszczek standing in front of him, Nani was ready to let this kid from nowhere know how powerful he was!
