Manchester United forward Hernandez believes that Red Devils star Li Yu is better than Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in some aspects.
The Mexican has scored 15 goals this season, and Li Yu has maintained a very high scoring efficiency all season long, often performing the savior drama at critical moments. For this strike partner, Hernand
Si commented: "I have always admired Li Yu before coming to Manchester United. It is really a pleasant feeling to be able to partner with him now. Our cooperation is very good."
"There is no doubt that Li Yu is the best forward in the world. In my opinion, there is no one. His shooting is better than Messi, and his header is better than Ronaldo. Their styles are different, but Li Yu
Jade is a super forward."
Hernandez said these words in an interview with "The Sun". As for whether Li Yu's shooting is better than Messi's and whether his header is better than Luo's, it is obviously a matter of opinion. If the interview is true, then
Mexicans clearly made their point.
In addition, Hernandez also said that he has done a lot of physical exercises in order to adapt to the Premier League. "Football now is not just about technique, but also about physical preparation and adaptation."
"I run a lot, in addition to exercising my muscles and increasing my speed. In Mexico, the pace is not as intense as here. In the Premier League, physical strength is very important. I can only do what I just did last summer by making some sacrifices."
Things that seemed impossible when they came.”
"I hope to continue learning and seize my opportunities, but I never expected the success I have now. Now I am a participant in the best club competition in the world (Champions League). I watched the Champions League broadcast in Mexico, but now I am
One of them."
Talking about the Champions League, Hernandez said that now the whole team is looking forward to reaching the final and competing with Barcelona: "We have a good chance to enter the final, Barcelona is also the favorite to enter the final, and everyone at Manchester United is looking forward to it."
I hope we can win Barcelona like we did in the 2009 final. If it can happen at Wembley, it will definitely be extraordinary."
Next, Manchester United will face strong opponents in the Premier League, against Arsenal and Chelsea. Hernandez said: "I believe Arsenal will be difficult to deal with, they have excellent players, and maybe the pressure has damaged them, including losing to
Barcelona and Barcelona lost to Birmingham City in the League Cup final. But this time Arsenal will still be difficult to beat and we must go all out."[
"But the spirit and history of Manchester United will make our opponents fearful. Even if we are 2-0 down with 20 minutes left in the game, people know that we will come back, which is difficult for other teams to do. We still have to fight.
Chelsea, I know they will fight until the last minute, but we are in control and if we win these games we will win the Premier League."
Hernandez’s success this season has earned him praise from many famous players. Former Liverpool star McManaman said: “What Hernandez has achieved this season is incredible. He is a man from Mexico.
As a young man, I don't know what his English level was when he first came to Manchester United, but the fact is that he adapted to everything amazingly."
"You originally thought he would be good in a few years, but he has been very good so far. He moves very well in the game and always appears in good positions. Only a really good shooter can do that.
This, this is something we are born with.”
Even Arsenal coach Wenger admitted that Hernandez has been outstanding this season. "He has played very well this season, very well, and has always performed outstandingly. And he also asked Rooney to play a new position and serve as an organizer.
”
"Li Yu can adapt to any requirement, which is very suitable for Manchester United. Hernandez moves around in front, while Li Yu keeps wandering and always maintains the determination to score goals. Such a player is really scary."
For Manchester United's opponent in the next round, Arsenal, the past two weeks have been a nightmare. Almost everyone has no idea why Arsenal collapsed at this time.
The total 19 shots in the game were far higher than the opponent's 12, and the 672% ball possession rate was more than twice that of the home team Bolton. However, it was such a game of suppression and suppression, and the losing side was Theory.
Arsenal has an absolute advantage in data!
What's even more shameful is that the opponent scored the winning goal in the 90th minute of the game. Of course, Arsenal people are probably used to this kind of "shame". From Sunderland at the beginning of the season,
From the 4-goal lead against Newcastle when it was equalized, to the recent Liverpool, the Gunners have always been accustomed to conceding goals near the end of the game, until they lost their last hope of competing for the title this season.
After losing to Bolton, Arsenal, led by Wenger, has only achieved an embarrassing record of 1 win, 5 draws and 1 loss in the last 7 league rounds. Their position in the standings has also been overtaken by Chelsea. This round
Afterwards, Wenger, who was still obsessed with winning the championship, had even been opened up by 3 points behind the second-placed Chelsea, and even had a 9-point gap with the leader Manchester United. Winning the championship has become an empty talk. 0 championships in 6 years
The nightmare is approaching them step by step.
"I said a few weeks ago that Chelsea was our main challenger, but I don't know if anyone listened to that at that time. It's true that Arsenal can play beautiful football, but Chelsea people are obviously better.
, they are more experienced than Arsenal, have a strong lineup, and the key is richer championship experience." A few weeks ago, when Arsenal were still "biting" Manchester United in the standings, Ferguson had already foreseen it.
When Arsenal collapsed, Sir Alex Ferguson's remarks were more easily understood as a "provocation" to Wenger.
Now it seems that Ferguson's disdain has become the naked truth. Looking from a distance, the next key league match between Arsenal and Manchester United at home was originally defined as the key battle between Manchester United and Arsenal for the championship.
This is more like a kind of irony, because what Wenger is fighting is not a championship battle, but a pure "blocking battle" to make a wedding dress for Chelsea people.
From the perspective of player performance, look at Djolu's "suicidal" poor performance at Reebok Stadium tonight, and then look at the god-level performance of Gary Cahill, the man who missed out in the winter. The sharp contrast between one god and one ghost, is not surprising
What do you think of Wenger on the sidelines? "Chelsea is even stronger." Ferguson's warning words are still ringing in my ears. It can be said that he hit the nail on the head! With such a broken lineup and full of loopholes in the defense, how can Arsenal compete with Manchester United?
, to compete with teams like Chelsea?
We can get a glimpse of this in a recently published Premier League coach transfer spending list and money-burning list by the British media. On this list, Mark Hughes, the then Manchester City coach, averaged one
The season's cost-loss ranking was 14.6 billion pounds, ranking first.
Among the top ten, there are many famous coaches like Mourinho, Benitez, Ancelotti and Mancini. The "money burning" of these famous coaches also objectively reflects the situation of football teams such as Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool.
The team's investment, expenses and expenditures are a symbol of the wealthy clubs' money burning.
However, we can hardly find Arsenal professor Wenger in the top 15 of this list. Looking carefully, the Frenchman is ranked 18th on the "money-burning list", which is the same as Sunderland's.
Working with coaches like McCarthy and Bruce.
Of course, there are even more shabby statistics. Since Wenger coached Arsenal for 15 seasons, the average investment per season is only 1.68 million pounds! This is almost equivalent to one-ninth of the investment of Manchester City during the Mark Hughes era! Close to
One percent investment! A hundred times! With such a low investment and such a disparity, it is no wonder that Arsenal has suffered the embarrassment of 0 championships in 6 years. After all, Wenger is not a god. He only relies on his "Midas".
How can you compete with the giants in the Premier League? [
It is true that in today's world football, spending money may not bring heavy trophies one after another, but on the other hand, if you don't spend money, it can be said that it is impossible to win a championship.
Clubs such as Barcelona have a strong youth training system, and their own "blood-making" ability is the best in football. They still invest heavily every year: last summer they purchased Mascherano and Villa, and the year before last they introduced Ibrahimovic.
and Zygrinski; Inter Milan introduced them in one fell swoop the summer before last
After recruiting heroes like Sneijder, Milito, Motta and Lucio, they won three golden trophies and the unprecedented "Triple Crown" after one season; Chelsea spent 7,500 during the winter transfer period.
Thousands of pounds, and finally made a strong comeback in the middle and late stages of the league...
So, why is it that Arsenal is the only one who has been reluctant to take action? Is it really because of financial constraints due to the construction of the Emirates Stadium a few years ago?
"The only thing I can say is that the club is in a healthy financial position and we have the ability to spend big money on people if needed. But the average age of our squad is twenty-three, why should we make a big move after the season?"
Exchanging blood and buying people?" Wenger's words can be said to have made Arsenal fans feel cold. Since they are financially healthy and do not want to buy people to strengthen their strength, will the Gunners' championship road continue like this?
After a tragic defeat by Bolton, Arsenal has been pulled 3 points by Chelsea, who came from behind, and is still 9 points behind the leader Manchester United. It can be said that the championship is basically within sight. This season the Gunners have to face 6 years of 0
The embarrassing ending of the championship. After the game, coach Wenger looked depressed. He finally admitted that winning the championship was "very slim" for his team.
"Indeed, winning the championship is already very slim for us, but we will still work hard for it. We lost too many points, which makes us frustrated. We should have got 9 points this week (
Liverpool, Tottenham, Bolton), but we only got 2 points. This season is really full of stories."
Wenger said angrily: "Our players have shown a positive attitude this season. Our players can be blamed. If we really want to find a culprit, then this person is me. I am leading this team."
Team."
"We created a lot of opportunities in this game, but still couldn't score as many goals, which makes me very dissatisfied. Our team is still immature. Sometimes experience and mentality are very important." Wen
Ge finally said.
No matter what Wenger's mentality is now, a battle with Manchester United is inevitable again.
It was this kind of Arsenal that defeated the Red Devils in a home game against Manchester United.
Manchester United lost by one goal at the Emirates Stadium. Ferguson could not hide his disappointment with the result of the game after the game, but he insisted that the referee missed a penalty kick at the last moment. At the same time, he also admitted Vidic's handball in the first half.
Being missed also allowed Manchester United to escape. He told "Sky Sports": "In such a major game, the referee should try to make as few mistakes as possible."
"Although I think Vidic's handball was very hidden and difficult to see clearly, it can be regarded as a balance. But about the final penalty, Klich himself must know that he raised his head in horror at the time
"Obviously, Chelsea's opportunity has come, and this is the result of these penalties."
In the next game, Manchester United will face the challenge of Ancelotti's Chelsea at Old Trafford. Regarding this game that will determine the season's Premier League championship, Ferguson also expressed his concerns: "Last season they were
It happened once at Old Trafford (implying a misjudgment), and that’s what I’m worried about now.” Changing the topic, he continued: “Speaking of the game at Old Trafford, our supporters
We will be ready, and so will the players."
Ferguson believed that the team gradually took control of the game after conceding the goal, but unfortunately did not score a goal: "We dominated the game after conceding the goal, and I think we should have something in return. Our handling of the ball was not reasonable, but we conceded the goal
After that, we were basically pressed into the opponent's half."
In an interview with Manchester United TV, Ferguson said: "I think the team didn't really enter the game before conceding the goal. Our state was very poor before that. To be fair, the game should have been a draw. They only had one shot on target.
Just scored a goal, which is disappointing." In fact, the post-match opt statistics showed that Van Persie also had a shot on target, threatening the goal guarded by Van der Sar.
"It's hard for me to say it's due to player fatigue, because they fought hard in the last 30 minutes, which was good. They tried their best, but it came a little late. The important thing is that we pass the ball better and take advantage.
Space, we didn't do enough in the first half. Wayne had a good shot that was saved, and Nani also had a chance."
"Nani had a great pass, but Li Yu just missed it. During that period, we performed very well, but unfortunately we didn't get the goal we wanted."
"Vidic's handball may have touched his fingertips. It is difficult for you to ask the referee or linesman to see the ball clearly. Irving's ball was an obvious penalty. I am very worried that in important games, the penalty will be detrimental to us.
"
"I think Van der Sar had no chance to save at all. Arsenal played well and very smoothly, but to be honest, they didn't have a few real chances to score. When we replaced Anderson, Park Ji-sung did not adjust his position in time.
He is still in the left midfield position, which gives Ramsey an opportunity to take advantage of." At the end, he did not forget to say harshly: "That goal conceded was the only chance we gave our opponent today."
After the highlight of the Premier League title match between Manchester United and Arsenal, Owen, who almost got a penalty kick for Manchester United after coming off the bench, said, "We are not happy. Today's result makes the next two games more critical, but we are still in a difficult situation."
In a good location.”
Li Yu said, "Today is a bad result, but (the championship) is still in our hands." Sir Alex Ferguson put pressure on the referee in a timely manner, "Obviously, these misjudgments have now given Chelsea a huge opportunity. They
They beat us at Old Trafford last season on a misjudgement and that's what I'm worried about at this point."
After losing this game, Manchester United's advantage in the championship group is getting smaller and smaller, but as the number of rounds decreases, Manchester United is getting closer and closer to the finish line.
As Owen and Li Yu said, "The championship is still in the hands of Manchester United." Now, with three rounds left in the Premier League this season, Manchester United is 3 points ahead of second-placed Chelsea and ahead of third-placed Arsenal.
6 points. The highest score Manchester United can theoretically get is 82 points!
The highest score Chelsea can theoretically get is 79 points, and the highest score Arsenal can theoretically get is 76 points.
On Wednesday evening, Manchester United will face Schalke 04 at Old Trafford in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. Since the Red Devils won 2-0 away from home in the first leg, it is not ruled out that the Red Devils will send some substitute players to rest many of the main players.
Possibility. On Sunday afternoon, Manchester United will continue to face direct championship rivals Chelsea at Old Trafford, while Arsenal will go away to challenge Stoke City, which has not yet been completely relegated.
Let's assume for the moment that Arsenal can beat Stoke City away from home.
Under this premise, if Manchester United defeats Chelsea in the next round, Manchester United will be 6 points ahead of Chelsea and Arsenal. With 2 rounds left in the league, the Red Devils have almost firmly grasped the Premier League trophy. They only need to win in the last 2 rounds.
If you get 1 point, you don't need to look at the faces of Chelsea and Arsenal and win the championship with 77 points.
If Manchester United shakes hands with Chelsea, Manchester United will lead Chelsea by 3 points with 74 points and Arsenal by 4 points. Since Manchester United will play at home against newly promoted Blackpool in the final round, it is very likely to win the game.
Therefore, as long as Manchester United draws with Blackburn Rovers in the penultimate round, the Red Devils will ensure the championship with 78 points.
If Manchester United loses to Chelsea at home, the Blues will be tied with the Red Devils in points, while Arsenal have 3 points less than them. With the last 2 rounds of the league left, the title race will become fierce. The most extreme case is that Manchester United will have 3 points less than them.
Losing to Blackburn in an away game, Chelsea losing to Everton in an away game, and Arsenal winning all three rounds, it is possible that the three teams will eventually be tied on the same points and decide the final championship based on goal difference.
Now, after 35 rounds, Manchester United and Chelsea both have a goal difference of 38 goals, while Arsenal's goal difference is 32 goals, which is a slight disadvantage.
If Manchester United loses to its direct competitor Chelsea at home in the next round, the Red Devils' goal difference will be at least 2 fewer than Chelsea's. This will undoubtedly be very unfavorable in all aspects of competition in the last two rounds, including goal difference.
Therefore, Manchester United cannot afford to lose at home in the next round. It is worth mentioning that if Manchester United wins the next three rounds and finally wins the championship with a record of 82 points, this will be the lowest score winner in the Premier League in the past 10 seasons.
One time was in the 2000-01 season, when Manchester United won the championship with 80 points; if Manchester United won the championship with only 77 points, it would be the second-lowest scoring championship in the Premier League in the last 14 seasons after the Red Devils won the championship with 75 points in the 1996-97 season.
