The most low-key superstar

Chapter 232 The Problem of Lineage
After returning to England, Manchester United's performance in the away game, especially the first half, was widely criticized. However, at this time, Mr. Ferguson stood up and launched a counterattack against the media, diverting the fire from the reporters to himself, thereby protecting the players. , especially those young players who play.

The intensity of the competition during this period made it difficult for all teams to bear, especially those teams with more international players. Because of the World Cup qualifiers and the European competitions, plus league and cup competitions, players' injuries There is also a gradual increase in the number of diseases.

But Manchester United is much better. Their young players have got a lot of opportunities to play. Mr. Ferguson adopted the method of main skeleton to drive young reserves, which provided a lot of time for some players to improve.

On October 10, Manchester United could finally send their main lineup to play, and their opponent was Blackburn.

Paul Ince, the soul of the former England midfielder, led the team to No.7 last season and entered the European arena with their heads held high. However, they still seemed powerless in the face of the full-strength Manchester United. The gap in strength , coupled with a strong opponent, they lost by two goals in front of [-] fans at Ewood Park.

Before the end of the first half, Rooney received a pass from Giggs, grabbed the ball before the opponent's defender, and headed the ball into the net.

In the 78th minute, Nani crushed his opponent with a beautiful individual performance. At the last moment, Nani did not seek credit, but passed the ball to Berbatov who was in a better position. , Manchester United sealed the victory.

And Nickle performed very steadily in defense, basically did not give opponents any chances, it was difficult for Blackburn to organize an effective offense, and rarely threatened Manchester United's gate.

Manchester United, who won this round, has won five consecutive victories in all competitions. Although the league has not distanced itself from its direct competitors, the three teams Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool have already stood out. Arsenal continue to be in a downturn. 1:1 draw with Sunderland, gradually began to fall behind.

With the joy of winning, Nichols went to London. On October 10, Capello announced the new list of the national team. This list is not much different from the last one. That is Gerrard Nickel, who performed well, continued to be recruited.

England will first face Kazakhstan at home, and then four days later, they will go away to Belarus. After these two games, their World Cup qualifiers for this year will be completed. The next game will not start until April 09. .

The England team did not have any injuries this time, and the personnel were very neat. With the return of Gerrard, the problem of Nickell's position was picked up again by reporters and some interested people.

This is England's tradition. Reporters use their pens and some unsatisfied guys to dictate the formation of the national team. The biggest victim is Nicole. There is a large part of this reason, Mike Laren was unwilling to give Nicole a chance. Of course, McLaren was also a victim. In order to flaunt his differences, he was stubborn in the formation of troops, unable to distinguish what was the correct opinion, which led to England's disgraceful exit.

"Nicole should play on the left side, England is still relatively weak in this position, and Nichols has performed well in this position, and although he has also shown good ability in the center before, Gerrard can't To be wasted, and Lampard should not be benched, is the greatest waste of resources." - The Times.

"Nicole, a young man, has performed well in the past, but this is a World Cup qualifier. England can no longer afford to lose. We must use the safest way to ensure a World Cup spot. If England cannot appear in South Africa due to carelessness , it would be an unbearable disaster for English football." - The Daily Telegraph.

Unable to bear these, Nichol also uttered his own voice, "I think my position is a problem that the head coach Mr. Capello needs to consider. Who will start and who will be on the bench in the game not only depends on the state, but also depends on the head coach. Tactical arrangements, rather than relying on the ridiculous judgments of some so-called experts. So in this regard, I would like to ask some people to shut up."

It is true that Nicole was pushed to the forefront, which is difficult for Nicole to accept. He does not think experience is a problem, and his performance against Croatia in the last game is enough to prove himself, and he used the league and the Champions League in the club. The champion made a good interpretation of his own strength. Is age really so important?Or are there other factors?
Just when Nicole was confused, the head coach Mr. Ferguson called, "Nicole, I know these things, I think, you don't need to pay attention to those bullshit experts, my suggestion is, don't use reporters to justify What, what to express, even to say, you don’t have to read those broken newspapers at all, just kick your own ball. Bloodlines don’t represent ability, I believe you.”

It turns out that this is the case, Nicole finally understood that it was his half Chinese blood that made some people unhappy. Written something on the one inside his jersey.

Capello, who was not clear about it, was also a little annoyed by the madness of the media, "I am the current head coach of England, and I have always been before the contract is executed. As for how I arrange the lineup, that is my job. It is very impolite for me to give advice and do not need others to do it for me."

"Nickel's ability doesn't need to prove anything anymore, and some people's speculation about him is unfair to him." Teammate Wayne Rooney stood up, and he was the first to fight for Nickel's injustice.

"I support Nicole, I think he has been treated unfairly."

"..."

Many players from the national team have expressed their opinions and expressed their support for Nicole, and even Gerrard publicly stated, "Please don't associate me with Nicole. Although we are enemies in the club, I want to privately We're friends, this guy is great, and I haven't taken advantage of him yet."

In the new Wembley Stadium, although the opponent is not enough to pose any threat to the England team, enthusiastic fans still fill the entire stadium, and the tickets allocated to the opponent have not been sold. The Kazakhs are very happy. Knowing how to do business, they resold the tickets to England and made a small profit.

Nicole continued to sit in the middle, and because Carrick's physical condition was not very good, Gerrard partnered with him, Lampard sat on the bench, Downing and the newly selected Lennon lined up two sides, Rooney and Ke Rauch led the striker, Ashley Cole, Ferdinand, Terry, Brown formed a powerful back line, and James continued to guard the gate.

Nickel was very happy to become teammates with his old partner Lennon. Before the start of the game, Nickel secretly agreed with Lennon to have a drink together after the game to celebrate their reunion.

In the first half, the Kazakhstan team did not have any decent offensive organization at all, while England played very easily. They suppressed their opponents in the half court and did not let their opponents pass the half court at all.

In the 9th minute, England's Crouch broke through the opponent's goal, and Rooney also scored in the 22nd minute.

Nicole is a little anxious, he is very eager to score goals, but the opponent is too weak, England's formation is very open, Nicole rarely has a chance to get in, he can't compete for the goal and his teammates.

Before the end of the first half, Gerrard's long-range shot pierced the goal of Kazakhstan again, and England led the first half with three goals.

In the second half, the England team completely gave up control of the midfield, replaced Crouch with Defoe, and asked the team to release their opponents, and the whole team practiced defensive counterattacks.

"Mr. Capello seems to be rehearsing tactics for the future games. I think our head coach is understandable to do so when the victory can be guaranteed. Although the scene is ugly, it also shows that Against our opponents, we are strong."
