Since the beginning of the 2005-06 season, before this campaign, Manchester United has won the championship for 4 consecutive seasons; and in the 20 seasons before this season, Manchester United has only lost all four majors in two seasons. Therefore, it is difficult to win this championship.
The League Cup is of great significance to Manchester United. A championship club must have the inertia to win the championship. Sir Alex Ferguson knows this very well.
Starting next Saturday, Manchester United will usher in the March schedule. Within 22 days, Manchester United is now determined to play 5 games. The good news is that these 5 games include 3 home games and 2 away games.
Among them, starting from March 10, they will face AC Milan, Fulham and Liverpool at home consecutively, and there will be two away games at the beginning and end of this month, respectively to challenge Wolves, currently ranked 17th in the league, and Bolton, which is 15th.
It is not difficult to score all 3 points in two away games.
On the contrary, there are three home games, and Manchester United needs to deal with them seriously. Four days after beating Wolves, Manchester United will face the challenge of AC Milan at Old Trafford. This is an extremely important game for Manchester United.
It is directly related to whether the Red Devils can continue to compete in the Champions League this season.
Now, Manchester United's morale is high after winning the League Cup. It will not be difficult to challenge Wolves away from home, who sent 11 substitutes to score three points in the first round of this season. Wolves coach McCarthy may even use substitutes as substitutes.
lineup or semi-main lineup to face the enemy. After all, when the two sides met for the first time in the first half of the season, the Wolves actually gave up the away challenge to Manchester United.
In the game, they played with the entire main team, and then defeated the newly promoted Burnley 2-0 at home, winning an important three points on the road to relegation. After defeating Manchester United at home in this campaign, Wolves will next
The opponent in the round is still Burnley. Of course, this time the Wolves are going to challenge Burnley away from home. It may not be that easy to get all 3 points.
Four days after playing Milan, Manchester United will face Fulham at home. The Cottagers beat Manchester United 2-0 at home in the league last season, and they beat Manchester United 3-0 at home in the league this season. For the Red Devils, this is
An out-and-out revenge battle; a week after playing Fulham, Manchester United will continue to face Liverpool at Old Trafford. The Red Army has won 2-0 at home this season.
Manchester United has a clean sheet, but this time it is about the focus of the battle for the title and the Champions League places. Manchester United must respond seriously. After all, the Red Devils have lost three consecutive games to Liverpool in the league; and once they get past Milan, the Champions League 14 finals
The first legs of the match will be played on March 30th and 31st local time. It is still unknown whether Manchester United will face the enemy at home or as an away challenge.
Looking at it now, Manchester United's most important game in the near future is the second leg of the Champions League 18 finals against Milan at home. In terms of personnel, Anderson's season has been scrapped ahead of schedule. The main central defender Ferdinand and the main right back O'Shea will definitely not be able to play against Milan.
, Forward Owen, who suffered a groin injury in this game, may not be able to play. However, Nani, who has been suspended from domestic competitions, can play, and Giggs, who is injured in his left arm, is also very likely to return in time. In this way, Manchester United will be able to have a relatively neat team.
lineup to face Milan.
Once they can win against Wolves, the morale of Manchester United, which has won three consecutive victories in all competitions, will be very high. Milan, which is almost destined to lose Pato, will have to score at least two goals in the away game to eliminate Manchester United. It will be difficult.
It will undoubtedly be very large.
On April 3, Manchester United will face Chelsea at home at Old Trafford, which may become the battle for the Premier League title this season. Of course, for Sir Alex Ferguson and his Manchester United, they prefer Chelsea to win in the Champions League.
Farther away. Because, in this case, Chelsea will compete on three fronts (Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup), and Ancelotti’s team does not want to give up on any one of them (only Chelsea is left in the traditional semi-finals of the FA Cup)
, if so, the best time for Manchester United to win an unprecedented four consecutive league championships is coming!
Li Yu is also working hard to sprint towards the championship. Jenny is still having a cold war with him recently, but Li Yu is not worried at all. Since he already knows what Xiao Nizi wants, he will give her a carefully prepared proposal ceremony.
That’s it.
I definitely can’t leave now. If Xiao Nizi is okay in the UK, I can only wait until the end of the season to give her a surprise.
In the game against Wolves, Li Yu started one after another, but his condition was really not good. He ran a lot but failed to seize any opportunities. Rooney, who replaced him, scored the only goal of the game in the 70th minute.
A goal.
Manchester United defeated Wolves 1:0 in the away game. It was completely different from the ease predicted by the media. During the game, Wolves played very actively, which caused a lot of trouble to Manchester United. The most important thing is
Fortunately, they successfully suppressed Li Yu's performance. In any case, this alone is enough for them to be proud of.
They seem to have found a solution to the problems that many wealthy clubs have failed to achieve. Of course, this has something to do with Li Yu's own state. He did not perform well and was replaced by Rooney. This is the first time in Li Yu's career.
Ferguson said after the game that he replaced Li Yu not because of dissatisfaction with the performance, but to allow Manchester United's No. 9 to rest more!
However, many media seized this opportunity to trumpet the end of the Li Yu phenomenon in order to gain more attention.
Will this be the end of the Lee Ok phenomenon?
Maybe the media themselves believe the lies they have made up, but the fact is that the sales volume of newspapers is amazing, and one report after another of lies can actually make the newspaper sell a lot.
This is not the luckiest media. "The Sun" took a different approach and has been paying attention to Li Yu and Jenny's Twitter, and found that the interaction between the two has been much less recently. Looking at Li Yu's recent performance on the court, they boldly
We came to the conclusion that the crisis in their relationship was the reason for Li Yu's poor performance.
Li Yu didn't expect that "The Sun" had really done enough homework, as if nothing could be hidden from them.
However, as the person involved, Li Yu chose to remain silent. The best way to deal with this group of media is not to make any remarks. Once they speak, they will just follow the rules and they must not be given this opportunity.
An abnormal performance in one game attracted so much news, and many people may even envy Li Yu's exposure.
Soon, in the home league match against Fulham four days later, Li Yu shattered all rumors about his phenomenal status.
In the match against Fulham, although Manchester United shot as many as 15 times in the first half, they were still unable to open the door to Fulham. However, in the second half, Li Yu scored twice, Rooney added the icing on the cake, and the Red Devils won 3-0.
The score was successfully avenged.
This was another game that Manchester United won in the second half. This season, if the score in the first half is excluded and only the theoretical points obtained by the score in the second half are calculated, Manchester United has scored 65 points after 30 rounds, averaging 2.17 points per game. Arsenal has finished the game.
Accumulated 63 points in 30 rounds, averaging 2.1 points per game
; Real Madrid and Bayern both have 54 points after 26 rounds, averaging 2.08 points per game; Chelsea have 58 points after 29 rounds, averaging 2 points per game; Barcelona have 51 points after 26 rounds, averaging 1.96 points per game; Inter Milan
Obviously he was better at playing in the first half, but his points in the second half were not among the top ten in Europe.
Not only the domestic league, but also the Champions League. In the 6 group matches, if only the second half score is calculated, Manchester United has 5 wins and 1 draw, and the points reached 16 points; in the 18th finals, they played Milan in two rounds and defeated Milan 3-2 away from home. In the second half, Manchester United "
Defeated Milan 2-1; beat AC Milan 4-0 at home, Manchester United dropped
Defeat the Rossoneri "3-0" at half time. In other words, in the two most important games of the Premier League and Champions League, if only the second half scores are counted, Manchester United can score 87 points in a total of 38 games, averaging as high as
With an incredible 2.29 points, there is no doubt that Manchester United is the best team in Europe at playing the second half.
With an investment of only -51.4 million pounds this season, Manchester United's decline in strength will be inevitable, but even so, the Red Devils can still thrive in the Premier League and Champions League this season. Sir Alex Ferguson is using him
With his magical hands, Manchester United in the post-Crotves era has been gradually pushed to the throne of four consecutive Premier League titles.
This is thanks to Li Yu's full explosion in the second half and dominated the game.
If you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that many times it is Li Yu who bursts out suddenly, leading Manchester United to a crazy counterattack in the second half. Manchester United's No. 9 best interprets the unyielding spirit that Ferguson instilled in the players.
In this regard, Fulham's top killer Zamora said after the game, "I think Ronaldo's departure has made Li Yu a better player. The speed of his improvement is incredible. I just hope he can
Keep this up in the World Cup, because when he is on fire, the World Cup will be more exciting."
Teammate Vidic also praised Li Yu, "Li Yu is definitely the best shooter in the world. His performance this season has been great, especially in the second half of the season. He is the main reason why we have won so many games."
Reason, I'm glad I don't have to guard him in the game."
Fulham coach Hodgson also praised Li Yu after the game, "Li Yu can prove at any time that he is one of the best players in the world. He can score so many goals in such a difficult league.
He was the protagonist in the World Cup and the Champions League. It’s not surprising that Real Madrid is eager to get Li Yu, I just know that I don’t have that much money.”
After the game, Sir Alex Ferguson believed that Manchester United still had 8 rounds left in the league this season, with a maximum of 5 games and a minimum of 2 games in the Champions League. It is a very realistic goal for Li Yu to chase Ronaldo's single-season record of 42 goals.
But Li Yu himself is not too interested in this record, "Honestly, scoring 42 goals doesn't mean much to me. It's actually not important. Of course it feels good to score goals. I want to score every goal."
To score goals in every game, what Cristiano Ronaldo has achieved is incredible. But I am a different type of player and a different person. I don’t want to compare myself to Cristiano.”
Li Yu has now scored 28 goals in the league, which not only allows him to continue to lead the European Golden Boot list, but also, with the last 8 rounds of the league left, who dares to say that Li Yu will not break Shearer and
What about the Premier League scoring record of 34 goals in a single season held by Cole? In a word, Li Yu is still making great strides towards the three golden boots of the Premier League Golden Boot, the Champions League Golden Boot and the European Golden Boot.
Former Real Madrid chairman Calderon claimed before the game that Real Madrid hopes to sign Li Yu, but it needs to offer an offer of 80 million pounds or more. "It seems that the chairman is ready to buy Li Yu. I guess Manchester United is not willing to lose a player."
A player like him. Sometimes it's about money and if there's an offer, maybe there's going to be an agreement. You have to take it seriously and that's the most important thing.
Situation is what the player wants to do. Cristiano Ronaldo is a great signing, he is one of the best players in the world. He is a real professional and he does a really good job. I don't know how to spend another
"Whether €100 million (approximately £90.6 million) or €80 million (approximately £72.5 million) is feasible, I guess if that is the case, Manchester United will have to accept selling Ronaldo."
Calderon may really be disappointed. Even if Real Madrid pays 100 million pounds, Manchester United will not sell Li Yu.
The reason is simple. As a Chinese, Li Yu is the most popular star in the world.
Moreover, whether in the Chinese national team or the Manchester United team, Li Yu is the absolute number one. Now all European clubs want to open up the huge market in Asia. With Li Yu, Manchester United does not have to worry about this at all. Whether in Asia
In any country, jerseys with the number 9 printed on them are definitely a hot commodity in Manchester United fan stores.
The income from buying jerseys in Asia alone has already made back the sky-high transfer fees at that time.
When the Manchester United club is clearly in loan repayment crisis, they will give up the Asian market. The jersey is actually a small matter. With Li Yu on the team, if Manchester United goes to Asia to dig for gold, the price will not be the same as before. The price will be doubled.
more than.
In today's football, it is difficult to find a player with such fans, and no one may achieve such an achievement.
In China, Li Yu is a god-like figure. Even Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Kaka can't do it. Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are definitely the first brothers of Real Madrid and Barcelona, but in the world, they and Li Yu
It's not a level at all.
What's more, Sir Alex Ferguson himself said that the reason why he sold Ronaldo was entirely because the Portuguese was willing to go to Real Madrid. Li Yu has already claimed many times that he only wants to play for Manchester United. If he has to say this in this sentence,
If a time limit is added to the words, Li Yu's answer can only be: for a lifetime.
Of course, these are the rhetoric given by the media, but it is undeniable that Li Yu is living a good life at Manchester United and is very happy.
The British media are always saying, Li Yu goes to Real Madrid, no!
Where there is only a struggle for power, playing football is no longer pure!
This is the purest football in the UK!
However, Li Yu has long been accustomed to what these media say. Every day is the same. If she performs well, everything is good. When she performs poorly, everything is bad!
The reaction last week and this week is the best proof. Phenomenal level has immediately become world-class. The media just wants to watch it, entertain it, and really believe it, then they are fools!
Next, Manchester United faces AC Milan, a duel that is bound to attract the attention of the world. Before welcoming the red and black team at home, Manchester United head coach Ferguson believed that the away victory three weeks ago was a milestone.
Before February this year, Manchester United had visited the San Siro Stadium 4 times, but not even a goal was scored. Three weeks ago, Manchester United not only scored in Milan, but also scored 3 goals and won. Ferguson believes: "
It was a landmark win for us, no doubt. From a historical point of view, you are playing against one of the best teams in European history. You must come back thinking,
Winning and the psychological boost it gives is really important."
While welcoming AC Milan to Old Trafford, Manchester United will also welcome an old friend: David Beckham. This is the first time Beckham has returned to the Theater of Dreams since leaving Manchester United 7 years ago. "I think it's very exciting.
It's hard to predict their starting lineup, but I don't know if Beckham will start, I haven't made a conclusion yet." Ferguson said, "He hasn't started since the first leg, so it's hard to say whether he will start the game.
What an impact. But he will come and one thing you need to realize is his fantastic passing. It is a threat. Of course, they will bring us a lot of threats, but we are very aware of David's
threaten."
In this game, Manchester United fans threatened to watch the game wearing yellow and green sword-striped shirts to express protest, and delayed entry for 10 minutes to show their protest against team owner Glazer. In this regard, Ferguson believed that the fans would not do that.
"This is such an important game. Old Trafford will be buzzing with people. I believe that whether they are wearing the traditional red and white jerseys or the yellow and green sword stripes, the fans will be united.
Speaking with one voice allowed us to advance safely," Ferguson said.
In addition, Scholes, who scored at San Siro, said that his goal 3 weeks ago was perhaps the ugliest goal in his career. "It's easy enough to admit it. I was going to shoot with my right foot.
, but the ball hit my left leg." Scholes said, "But a goal is a goal and I will accept it happily. This is a goal we need because in the first 20 minutes of the game,
We were very passive and could have been three or four goals behind. From that goal onwards it looked like we were going to be the winners."
Rooney and Li Yu start together, which can completely guarantee Manchester United's offensive strength in the game. Although Rooney has some minor knee injuries, it is not a problem. As long as there is such a combination, AC Milan can only give a game
