There is a dream called football

Chapter 482 Manchester United Rotation
Goalkeeper Kutcher.

Right back Cicinho.

The central defender is Juan from Brazil, Mex from France, and Tonetto is the left back.

The midfield is De Rossi, Perotta, Mancini, Giuly.

The forwards are Totti and Aquilani.

This is Roma's starting lineup. When the outside world gets this list, it should be said that there is nothing surprising, because this is the formation commonly used by Roma in recent games.

However, when everyone got Manchester United's roster, they all talked loudly because several of Manchester United's main players did not start. First of all, Li Qiao was sitting on the bench, followed by Rooney, who was also sitting on the bench.

When Spalletti saw the starting list, he had mixed feelings. On the one hand, he felt humiliated. On the other hand, he saw the possibility of winning, because it was a good thing for him to underestimate the opponent.

Of course, Li Qiao hopes that he can start, but in a big team like Manchester United, he must obey the overall interests of the team in many cases, and Ferguson also sent him to the squad, which means that he may still play the game.

The two teams were actually competing when they were warming up. They glanced at each other from time to time, as if seeing prey. Both sides also knew each other's status in the group. This was the most important match in the group stage. It was not only about 3 points, but also a battle of honor.

A battle of honor between Italian football and English football.

Totti's popularity in England is also very high, so when Totti was warming up, many Manchester United fans were also shouting.

In fact, if Totti is willing, Ferguson is willing to offer a big contract. Of course, Ferguson also knows that Rome is probably impossible to buy with money.

Totti was doing shooting drills, and there was a round of applause when his powerful shot went into the goal of Cucci's handle.

This may be the giants, just like when Del Piero played at the Bernabeu, the audience could stand and applaud.

When a player can reach Totti's level, he can already exceed the limits of the team itself. He has become a common asset in the football circle, and Totti is also very face-saving. He raised his hands to thank the home court.

Li Qiao looked a little envious. Everyone wanted to be a player of this level, just like Del Piero and Inzaghi. That was already a legend, not just a professional player.

At this moment, Rooney patted Li Qiao, "Is it very uncomfortable, we have a rest today."

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with it. It feels good to sit on the bench and watch the game."

"Hey, don't worry, we should play in the second half. I asked Queiroz about the normal rotation. This is Manchester United. The rotation is normal."

Li Qiao nodded. Here, Ferguson may be the only one who is unstoppable. Other than that, everyone else is replaceable, including Ronaldo. This is the background of a wealthy family.

Before the game, Ferguson took the initiative to say hello to Spalletti.

The two marshals cherish each other. Of course, this is for the photographers on the side to see, but it is very necessary.

After paying tribute, the contest on the court will begin soon, and that is the real contest.

*****
Nani replaced Li Qiao on the right in this game. The Portuguese's speed and footwork are no worse than Li Qiao's, but he will be a little less calm at critical moments. Besides, Nani is also a very good winger on the right.

Nani's several breakthroughs left a deep impression on the fans. Rooney patted Li Qiao, "Are you worried? He seems to be very good. Maybe he will replace you."

"Hehe, that's impossible."

"is it?"

The two laughed, but Li Qiao was worried in his heart, not only Nani, but also Tevez.

Fortunately, Tevez's English is terrible, and he is unwilling to learn, which makes Ferguson a little unhappy.

In the past, Veron was like this. He could only speak a few words of very simple English, and he refused to learn. In this way, Ferguson needed a translator every time he conveyed tactics, which was actually very inconvenient.

After the opening, Manchester United's two Portuguese wingers performed very well, and even Nani's side was stronger than Ronaldo's side.

Although they are friends in private, on the court, there are no friends to talk about. As long as there is a chance, Nani very much hopes that he can grab Li Qiao's main position, even if it is not easy, it doesn't matter.

But it may be too impatient, Nani's crosses are always half a beat, either the pass is too big, or the opponent's central defender disposes of it.

You must know that the two central defenders of Roma are both international players, so it is difficult to penetrate this line of defense with general passes.

Nani was a little impatient. Not only Ferguson discovered this, but also Scholes on the field. At this time, he needed to make his own adjustments with the midfield metronome, so Scholes passed more passes to Ronaldo on the left.

And Ronaldo's side is not easy today, because here is the Brazilian international Cicinho.

Cicinho is known as Cafu's successor. Although it was later proved that his ability is not as high as that, he is still one of the best full-backs in the world at this time. At this time, Ronaldo still only uses speed to bully his opponents.

On the contrary, Saha performed very well. Ferguson is very accurate in judging people. He said that Saha's ability to be healthy is no less than that of Ronaldo and Rooney. This time Saha also fully demonstrated his strength in front of his compatriot Mex.

And the way Saha shows his strength is to eat hard.

The moment Saha took the ball, he immediately turned around and squeezed the opponent's Mex, but this time, Mex did not squeeze, and the defense in the penalty area is often a moment of lightning and flint, but after Mex did not squeeze the first time, then the second time was useless. Saha volleyed the near corner of the goal with great power, but the ball was a little bit wide and missed.

But this time, the old man was excited, this is Drogba of Manchester United.

Now it was Rooney's turn to be depressed, and Li Qiao chuckled, "Vien, it seems that it's not me who lost the main position, but probably you."

……

……

Rooney frowned, he wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing.

On the pitch, Manchester United is still the one that controls the tempo, and firmly controls the tempo of the game, but this does not worry Spalletti. After all, the Italians have always been defensive counterattacks, and even the tighter they are pressed, the greater the power of the explosion.

It has to be said that the philosophy of Italian football has been integrated into the soul of Italian footballers.
