Midfielder.

Chapter 200

During those 15 minutes at half-time, no one knew what happened in the Manchester United dressing room, but what can be guaranteed is that Ferguson did everything in his power to motivate the players who were depressed, especially the young lads. Once he finally didn't turn on his hair dryer.

Maybe this old man also understands that the game is ultimately up to the players to play, especially in this kind of peak confrontation of strong dialogue, the mentality must be kept stable, otherwise, no one knows what will happen to these boys , he doesn't want to lose this damn game.

No one knows what happened in the dressing room, but the Stamford Bridge Stadium was not idle during the short break. Fans from both sides began to tease each other with words, especially the Chelsea people. They sang loudly , This is the first time they have the confidence to defeat each other.

"This is the blue ocean! Red devils, go back to your hell, you Manchester people are not welcome at Stamford Bridge."

Such provocative voices are not uncommon. Chelsea's combat effectiveness in the first half made all Chelsea fans excited.

So they don't feel friendly to those Manchester United fans who come to Stamford Bridge. They have to use this voice to declare their existence.

And Manchester United fans will point to the flashing pictures on the big screen, laughing at Chelsea and Mourinho's conservativeness, thinking that their opponents dare not fight.

"You can only defend! A group of cowardly turtles, you dare not attack us at home, you just shrink in your own half and wait to die!"

Of course, outnumbered, the voices of the United fans are often drowned out by the roars of the Chelsea fans, but these people are still waving the red flag of the United team, as they have often done in the past ten years Similarly, today, they also insist on the idea of ​​​​winning.

Just like those fans' argument, even the host responsible for the broadcast is divided into two factions at this time, there are those who support Ferguson and those who support Mourinho.

Some people say that Mourinho played too conservatively. According to Chelsea's strength, they can have a happy confrontation with Manchester United on the turf.

Just like Ranieri last season, although the result of the game will be full of uncertainty, it is much better than such a dry game process.

However, some people agree with Mourinho's arrangement. When he is not familiar with the Premier League, it is the most practical way to defend and then try to score goals.

It is definitely not a wise approach to simply consider the beauty of the scene, at least in the game against Manchester United, it is indeed dangerous to do so.

But there are indeed many people who are denouncing Mourinho's skillful style of play, thinking that he has destroyed the most original beauty of football, and that the gorgeous offense has lost its due brilliance in the face of Chelsea's strangling tactics. There are too many people who don't like the way of winning games with physicality and confrontation.

But this kind of argument will not affect Mourinho's thinking, because from the very beginning when he decided to play the game like this, he knew very well that it would provoke a lot of people.

"Because they are no longer in my position, anyone has the right to blame others, but don't forget, my Chelsea is not Brazil."

"And I don't want to be the Brazil team in 82, dying in a magnificent way of playing. This is not suitable for me as a victory man, and I don't like that. The game is to win, not to be remembered. How well these guys played and then they lost the game."

Just like those arrangements he has made in the midfield, the defensive counterattack argument will never make any changes. All Mourinho needs is the result.

As for how the outside world evaluates his style of play, for this guy who is single-minded about taking down his opponent, it doesn't hurt or itch, and he doesn't even hear it at all.

"Listening to a group of non-professionals discussing a head coach's tactical arrangement is really the most idiotic performance." This is the guy's counterattack.

Anyway, Mourinho has just one idea now. You like to say that the hammer has nothing to do with me. My team can play as they like.

Taking three points is the last word. As long as he can win the game, even if those criticizing voices don't shut up, not many people will listen to his nonsense.

Just as no one could have imagined that Chelsea would use this defensive counterattack against Manchester United at home, no one could have imagined that Mourinho would be the first to make a substitution in the second half. This guy took the lead in replacing Goodjohn with Mutu Sen, and Drogba was pushed to the forefront of Chelsea's entire offensive line by him.

"Ambush behind Didier Drogba, try to control the second ball, get as close to the goal as possible, and cause trouble for the Manchester United defenders."

This is the task that Mourinho entrusted to Mutu before he came on the field. Although the Romanian footballer did not perform well in Ranieri's era, but now in the Chelsea team, this guy has the most sensitive sense of smell in front of the goal. Compared with Kezhiman, Mourinho obviously trusts Mutu more.

The most important thing is that after experiencing the turmoil of drug abuse, Mutu's performance in training was not as bad as those unscrupulous reporters criticized.

Mourinho knows very well that players will sometimes be in poor form, especially in an environment that he is not familiar with, and what is worse is that he will have a coach who is hesitant about tactics. It must feel terrible. As for Mourinho Mourinho doesn't care about drug use at all.

That is a personal choice in life, and in the pre-season medical examination, the Romanian did not have any physical problems.

That's enough. Mourinho doesn't want to bring too many irrelevant things into the game. He only needs his players to be in a very good state.

But the most important point is that Mourinho doesn't like Kezhiman's attitude in the game and training. In front of Drogba and Lampard, he also considers himself the boss.

It doesn't matter that those players don't dump him, Mourinho will ignore him first. For him as a head coach, Kežman's worth of 800 million is not worthy of the name.

At least the Seychelles didn't conquer himself with his attitude and state on the training ground, let alone the embarrassing situation where he failed to make any achievements in the two warm-up games.

Who is Mourinho?Lin Yi, who was the best player in the Champions League final, dared to put him on the bench. How many paws do you have, the top scorer in the Eredivisie?

But although Mutu's appearance made many people pay attention to Chelsea's next move, Ferguson is not the guy who cares most about people at the moment.

The person the old man was staring at now was the group of substitutes who were warming up behind the Chelsea gate, because he saw Lin Yi!

Lin Yi was warming up. The kid who had been sitting for half the court was finally ready to play, but this was not good news for Ferguson.

I don't know why, anyway, as long as Ferguson sees that black-haired kid, his heart can't help beating violently. Maybe that kid left too many painful memories for himself last season. All in all, Ferguson Understand, Chelsea is brewing tactical adjustments.

And that kid is the key, but Ferguson has to guess now, what is Mourinho going to do?Is it like the time in Porto?

Let Lampard and Lin Yi be on the field at the same time, forming a combination of double midfielders?Attack Manchester United's defense?Or are you going to put that monstrous kid somewhere else?Or adjust Lampard's position on the field?Too many changes, which made Ferguson a little confused.

No way, whoever made that little bastard always look like a ghost when he was on the court, anyway, as long as there is him, there will never be peace.

And looking at the boy's relaxed expression, Ferguson always felt uneasy. The more relaxed the boy was, the more dangerous he was.

The smile on the corner of Lin Yi's mouth is just like Mourinho's expressionless face, always hiding murderous intentions in secret, and then inadvertently, savagely slashing.

Now Ferguson not only has to worry about the tactical adjustments Chelsea will make after Lin Yi plays, he must also see some problems that have already occurred on the field.

I have to say that Mourinho is really sensitive to the sense of the game. After he replaced Mutu, Chelsea's defensive counterattack became sharper.

Originally, Drogba, a strong guy, often caused trouble for Manchester United's defense when he got two wide passes. Now that he has a shadow striker behind him, his performance can bring more threats , and Mutu's flexible movement behind Drogba is even more terrible.

Manchester United's defense, in order to trap Drogba, Ferdinand can only focus all his attention on the African elephant, and Lampard's back row is inserted, with Fletcher and Brown The help defense, but now that Mutu is so intrusive, it immediately disrupts everything.

Brown must concentrate on the Romanian's movement, and there is no extra strength to help Fletcher, let alone Ferdinand.

At this time, Lampard has only a regular midfielder like Fletcher in front of him. Whether it is experience or personal ability, Lampard is better.

After the start of the second half, although the Chelsea team still tightened the fence in their own half to prevent Manchester United from overstepping the barrier, they began to counterattack vigorously. Lampard and Murphy In the first 10 minutes of the game, Tu got three consecutive shots.

If Howard hadn't tightened his nerves, no one would have known what would have happened. If so, Ferguson was also roaring loudly from the sidelines.

"Push them out! Don't let these guys get a chance so easily in front of our goal!", but his reminder didn't help. In the absence of Keane, Manchester United's midfield defense Thickness, began to show the lack of experience and ability.

And now not only is Fletcher in trouble, even Joe Cole is starting to create defensive pressure on Sylvester. This is the task Mourinho gave him in midfield, "First half You played too carefully on the field, and I want you to use your technical advantage to suppress the opponent's wing on the field."

With Mourinho's words, do you still expect Joe Cole, a kid with an offensive factor in his bones, to be safe?He has started to continuously break through Sylvester's defense on the wing. This guy who is known as the most talented offensive player in the England team has shown a sharp knife.

Compared with Chelsea's counterattack, Manchester United still controlled the football for most of the time, but now they feel the pain of weak attacking. Relying solely on the impact of Rooney and Alan Smith, the effect is really poor.

This is the case now, watching the Manchester United team very busy on the field, but every time they interspersed and ran, they failed to escape the encirclement and suppression of the Chelsea players.

Only Giggs can occasionally pass a threatening kick or two. Scholes is basically paralyzed under Makelele's marking.

Ferguson knew that going on like this would not work, he had to make personnel adjustments, otherwise, Manchester United would be worn down by the opponent sooner or later.

But when Ferguson selected players from his bench who could play and open up the situation, Mourinho had already taken the lead in making the second personnel adjustment.

"Lin Yi came on and replaced Lampard." When the commentator on the scene reported this news, Ferguson finally understood why Mutu came on the field.

The attrition battle of more than 60 minutes has already made Fletcher's midfielder look shaky. At this time, adding an offensive player is to involve more defensive energy of Manchester United. In the end, the Portuguese is waiting for the end. Lin Yi was regarded as the winner by him.

"Prepare to make a substitution, ask Alan Smith to withdraw, and replace O'Shea in the midfielder position, the speed must be fast!" Ferguson almost shouted this tactical adjustment, because he knew very well that even if it was delayed a little longer Seconds, maybe Manchester United's defense is very dangerous.

But Lin Yi didn't have the time to care what his opponents would think of this substitution. When he stood on the sidelines, even his blood started to boil.

"This is my first Premier League game. This is a new stage that belongs to me. I really hope that bad old man of God can bring me good luck."

After high-fiving Lampard, Lin Yi couldn't wait to rush into the pitch. At this moment, Lin Yi wanted to shout loudly, "This is my game!"

Lampard has no objection to being replaced this time. Although he knows that there is no problem with his physical fitness, he must obey the head coach. This is the first thing he needs to understand since he started coaching under Mourinho. To replace him is also for the team to win the final victory.

And Mourinho did not neglect the team's midfielder, he took the initiative to pat Lampard on the shoulder, and praised this guy by the way.

"We performed well. We are almost crushing the Red Devils in Manchester. This should be our victory." The swing policy used to be very practical, and it is indeed a good way to apply kindness and harm.

Lin Yi's appearance not only alerted Ferguson, but more importantly, the appearance of this little guy set off the madness of the entire Stamford Bridge stadium.

"Lin!", although I haven't seen this kid's performance at Stamford Bridge, too many Chelsea fans are eager to see Lin Yi's performance.

Maybe it's because Lin Yi defeated Manchester United twice last season and his performance in the Champions League gave these people too much expectation, so the fans went crazy.

And people like Lin Yi are crazy, and they won't let this madness stop. After he came on the field, he slid a tackle in the midfield, cut off Fletcher's pass to Ronaldo, and then directly aimed at it with the back of his foot. Fletcher's defensive position rushed straight over, swinging, his upper body was swinging wildly.

Now Lin Yi's body is full of strength, and the accumulation of more than 60 minutes has made him a little impatient. Now, he just needs to explode!
Fletcher had experienced the power of this kid dribbling in the Champions League last season, and this time was no exception. When he saw such high-frequency fake moves, he still looked confused and did not dare to Stretching out his foot to steal the ball easily, he could only retreat while blocking, trying to drag out the speed that the kid was pressing forward.

But Lin Yi wouldn't give him this chance at all. Shaking, flicking and dunking, Lin Yi suddenly increased his speed when he was dribbling the ball at his feet the moment he got close to Fletcher.

Short-distance burst, if this kid was still lacking in this aspect last season, then after one summer, he became even more terrifying.

Because Fletcher didn't see how this kid disappeared from his eyes at all, and by the time he realized it, the kid had already been wiped away.

The simplest breakthrough action, but often this method is the most effective and lethal. In one round, Lin Yi got rid of the marker.

The involvement of Drogba and Mutu has already mobilized the two central defenders, Ferdinand and Brown, and there is no time for him. The only one who keeps up is Neville.

But even if this guy had the foresight, he miscalculated the speed at which Lin Yi broke through Fletcher. By the time he caught up, the kid had already shot.

What did Lin Yi practice for the whole summer?This kid is good at shooting. Otherwise, the one or two hundred extra practice sessions every day would not be in vain. If someone can ask the third goalkeeper Ma Qiao, he will know why this guy is usually destroyed by Lin Yi. It's like a beast in training.

But only such beastly training can train such a monstrous guy, 20 meters away from the goal, which is a distance he would not choose to kick at ordinary times, but in this kind of game, Lin Yi only has one thought, that is, he must To punch through Manchester United's goal, but be sure to come in person!
"Boom", when Neville's sliding tackle failed to stop Lin Yi from shooting, all he could hear was the muffled sound of the football being kicked out by Lin Yi.

With a dull impact, and with a whistling sound, the football passed by Neville's side, with a ferocity that tore through the air. . .

(Look at the national football team tonight. Anyway, it’s a life-and-death battle. Whether you qualify or not is just a matter of trembling... Maybe, probably, maybe, not necessarily, it can be like the Rockets, isn’t it? ..)
