Chapter 679 Appropriate choice
During the intermission, Kintag praised the performance of the players in the locker room: "Guys, you really did not disappoint me. When facing the underdog Ghent, you can still guard against arrogance and impetuosity. We scored 3-0 in the first half, I am so proud of you!"

After a slight pause, Kintag continued: "But you have to pay attention, continue to strive for goals in the second half. Because we will have a very intensive game next, the more goal difference, the more solid we can be in the second round. "

"In addition, I also ask you to pay attention to the scale of fouls and not to receive unnecessary yellow cards, so as not to accumulate yellow cards in subsequent games and suspend the game."

Hearing what Kintag said, Scholes understood in his heart: the captain has already considered his next Champions League opponent in advance.

Scholes was right, Kintag really didn't care about Ghent anymore.At the beginning of the second half, he made a substitution adjustment. He replaced Griezmann with Dybala, and let Griezmann, who had been fighting continuously, go down to rest.

Then Kroos replaced Kanter to prevent Kanter from getting a yellow card for defense.

In Kintag's mind, the most indispensable player for this Manchester United team is Kanter. As long as Kanter is on the court, he is not afraid of any team's attack.

After Manchester United made personnel adjustments, their offense in the second half still did not relax. Ghent looked shaky under Manchester United's stormy attack.

In the 73rd minute of the game, Manchester United scored again.

This time it was Dybala, who came on in the second half, who scored the goal.He broke through Gent's defense through his personal skills, and then shot around the corner of the penalty area, and the ball went straight to the dead corner.

4 to 0!Manchester United has completely sealed the victory!
At the last moment of the game, Kintag replaced De Bruyne with Martial and continued to strengthen the offense.

However, in the 85th minute of the game, Ghent scored a goal through an attack from a set kick in the frontcourt.This time, Martial, who had just changed to the field, touched the ball when he returned to defense, and then the ball fell into Manchester United's goal at a very strange angle. De Gea had nothing to do with the ball.

This ball made Manchester United a little helpless, and Martial was also very embarrassed.

However, Kintegger off the court has a different view on this ball: "Martial has performed very well recently, not to mention his offensive performance, at least now he often tries his best to return when the team needs him. Defense, this is very good."

The final score of this game was fixed at 4 to 1. Manchester United scored 4 away goals, and they have already entered the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

After pacifying the game, Manchester United once again ushered in a cup game-the fifth round of the FA Cup, away to Shrewsbury.

"It's really depressing recently, it's been four consecutive away games!" Jin Taige was very resentful.

Phelan was also a little irritable: "Yes, it can be seen during training that the players' state has begun to fluctuate."

Scholes was also a little worried: "Although we have been winning games during this period, if this continues, the team may be in trouble next time."

Jin Taige looked at the schedule in his hand: "And the schedule is getting more and more dense, and we need to make appropriate trade-offs for the next game. The cup game is a game to determine the outcome, and there can be no accidents. Then we can make appropriate arrangements for the league. Substitutes come on."

Scholes looked at the league standings: "Now we are 9 points ahead of Leicester City, and the gap is quite obvious. There are also conditions for proper cup preservation and league release."

In the game on February 2, although the opponent Shrewsbury was only a League One team, Kintag still did not dare to relax. He only rotated half of the main players, and he still hopes to be more secure in this game.

The starting striker combination of this game is Van Persie and Dybala, both of them performed very eye-catching today.The two scored a goal each, and Van Persie's long-range shot also caused an own goal for the opponent.

In the end, Manchester United won the game 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

In the draw ceremony after the game, Manchester United's quarter-final opponents drew West Ham. West Ham has performed well this season. They are currently ranked No.8 in the league and are in very good condition. Therefore, Manchester United's next game must be There will be some difficulties.

However, this game will not be played until a month later. For Manchester United, the most important game is the League Cup final on February 2. The Manchester derby will be officially staged. Manchester United will face their rivals in the same city at home. Manchester City.This is Manchester United's first title fight of the season, and there is no doubting the importance of this game.

After the victory over Shrewsbury on February 2, Manchester United will face Arsenal in the league on February 23, and the League Cup final on the 2th will begin.The appropriate trade-off that Jin Taige said a few days ago is mainly about the competition during this period.

After an internal meeting, Kintag absolutely gave up the game against Arsenal on the 26th, and let all the main players take turns to prepare for the League Cup final three days later.

Scholes raised his hands in agreement, but Phelan felt a little regretful: "We have won [-] consecutive league victories. If we can win Arsenal again, then we will have [-] consecutive victories..."

Jin Taige smiled: "Our current team's lineup is already quite luxurious, at least in multi-line battles, there is enough bench depth. But it is impossible to have the same strength as the substitute and the starting lineup. So I think To be more secure in the League Cup final, the main players must be rested."

Scholes also persuaded Phelan: "It is not easy to win [-] consecutive victories. We should not lose important championships because of the greedy record of league victories. It will not be worth the loss."

"Well, you're right." Phelan also understood when he heard Jintag and Scholes say the same thing.

Therefore, in the seventh round of Premier League No.20 three days later, Manchester United ushered in a challenge from Arsenal at home.In this game, Kintag sent all the substitute players. His goal for the team is not to lose at home.

But this game was far more difficult than he imagined.

Just 10 minutes into the game, Arsenal striker Welbeck received a pass from Ozil and headed past his old club's goal.

1 to 0!Manchester United fell behind at the start!
In the following time, Manchester United players stepped up their offense, but it was obvious that Arsenal performed better in this game.

In the 39th minute of the game, Ramsey took a violent long shot from outside the penalty area and blasted the goal guarded by Romero!
2 to 0!Arsenal expanded their score advantage!
Seeing this situation, Jin Taige shook his head on the sidelines.

Alas, this game...

hanging...
