Chapter 62 Meeting the Red Devils Again ([-])

Greeting the two to enter Highbury, Shao Bo took them to visit the stadium. Over 80 years of ups and downs, they have witnessed countless championship football stadiums.

Seeing that the appointed time was approaching, Shao Bo took them to find Liam Brady, Arsenal's youth training director. Shao Bo's request was not too much, but he just asked him to see how the bear's paw fish was. Can you enter Arsenal's youth training team?

In fact, because the youth training is to recruit players by casting a wide net and catching more fish, the threshold is actually not high, and it is relatively easy to get in.It’s just that if you want to become a talent, extremely high talent, hard work, and the most important point: luck, all three are indispensable.

Shao Bo believes that as long as Xiongpaoyu shows a certain amount of football talent, it is enough to join Arsenal's youth training camp.

As long as he can successfully enter Arsenal's youth training, how far he will go in the future is not Shao Bo's concern.Of course, as long as his performance is excellent, Shao Bo will definitely give him a chance to show himself.

Shao Bo exchanged pleasantries with Liam Brady, and the latter asked Xiongpaoyu to do warm-up activities to prepare for the assessment.

Shao Bo, who had nothing to do, watched quietly from the side. He also wanted to know how good this kid who has been playing wild football for many years is.
The assessment time was not long, but Shao Bo could see from the short period of time that this kid had good physical fitness and fast speed, and he was not sloppy when doing some fancy moves-there are many dexterous players in England. Not common among players.

"Well, not bad. Where did you find this kid? Shao Bo, you can be a scout, haha." After the assessment, Liam told the Xiong family father and son that Xiongpaoyu can join Arsenal's youth training camp .For other trivial matters, such as files and other things, the Xiong family and his son need to come over the next day to handle them.

Surprised, Uncle Gong thanked Shao Bo again and again.

Although he didn't want the children to play football, Shao Bo did his best to help them.

"Forget it, the child can do whatever he wants, we can't control it anyway." Before leaving, Uncle Gong sighed.

"Little bear!" Shao Bo called Xiongpaoyu, and then said, "You have entered Arsenal's youth training camp now, but don't relax or be proud. There are hundreds of children like you in London , not to mention the whole of England. But how many people are famous? Your foot skills are good, practice more, watch more videos of the game to learn and figure out. I can put the words here, if you don’t work hard because of yourself And if you get caught in the end, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After Shao Bo finished speaking, he felt as if he had suddenly turned into a villain, so he hurried to restore his image. "Of course, as long as your performance is good enough and good enough. I will open the door of the locker room of the first team for you. Think about it. At that time, you will be able to fly in the Premier League, play football on the European continent, and be heard thousands of times on TV. It has been seen and known by tens of millions of viewers."

……

"It's not bad, but it's a pity that it's too late to bring us here. Some things have been finalized, and it's not so easy to change. Also, I heard that he was born as a field player? So in terms of vision, the overall situation I'm afraid it's also..." Liam had a cup of coffee with Shao Bo after the assessment.

"I believe in your youth training level. With you as the youth training director of our Arsenal, I'm afraid I can't fix this kid's problems? It's okay, don't worry about my face, just train him hard. If he can't persist If I quit halfway, I have nothing to say."

"Okay... By the way, how are your preparations for next week's game? The last game against Manchester United was really good! I think we can improve in this way..." As he spoke, Liam and Shao Bo started discussing the game next week in depth.

Now the focus of work has to be on the duel with Manchester United.Holding the attitude that one point in the league is enough, Shao Bo still wants to prepare for the game against Valencia for a while.After all, cup matches are more accidental, and in the league, it is enough to grab points in those small clubs.

It's just that on the football field, there are only fighters who strive to win with all their strength. How can there be a head coach who strives for a draw?Shao Bo, who had this idea, was chopped up in Highbury like melons and vegetables.

"3:1! It's a pity, but we still have to announce that Arsenal once again tasted the bitter fruit of losing at home, and Manchester United won this game!"

In fact, Shao Bo's tactics were not completely seen through by Ferguson. At the beginning, Ferguson hadn't figured out how to break the situation with Shao Bo's bus tactics.However, Beckham, who has a "golden right foot", opened the scoring for Manchester United with a beautiful free kick.At this time, Shao Bo looked down at his watch, only 24 minutes had passed.

There is really no way for this kind of goal. In order to do a good job in defense, Shao Bo has worked hard on defending set kicks in the past few days.It can only be said that Manchester United was very lucky, and the first set kick of this game scored them a point.

Having already conceded a goal, Shao Bo naturally wavered between continuing to defend and taking the initiative to attack.The players on the field were even more eager to move, so, taking advantage of a gap, Gary Neville made a through pass, and Cantona caught the ball and made a strong shot. Although the ball was blocked by David Seaman, But because of too much power, the ball still rushed into the gate.

"2:0! Arsenal have already conceded 2 goals at home! What is the head coach doing? Coach Shao Bo seems to be in a daze there? When the team is behind, this can't be done."

"Yeah, last time we saw a wonderful match between Arsenal and Manchester United, why now Arsenal has been defending in their own half, not coming out at all, don't they want to equalize the score? "

"Steady mind, don't give them another chance!" Shao Bo finally decided to let the team maintain this defensive posture until halftime. With 2 goals, there is still hope of equalizing or even winning, if Manchester United has a 3-goal advantage.Manchester United is not Milan, and they are used to being reversed. I am afraid that the Istanbul night will not be replicated on today's stadium.

"It's okay, keep the gate!" Shao Bo shouted at the players.

It's just that Arsenal, who have lost two goals, still can't defend at home. Such a shameful style of play made tens of thousands of fans at home mercilessly boo the home team players.

"Oh, it's a disaster, but in the face of such a scene, the fans can be forgiven for booing the home team."

The tactics were actually implemented well, and Shao Bo's ideas were not wrong. The current situation can only be said to be due to luck.

The first half passed quickly, and Arsenal, who were two goals behind, did not give Manchester United any more chances.As soon as the whistle blew, players from both teams walked back to the locker room to prepare for a rest.

"It seems that we have won. I think you should focus on the next game." After halftime, before walking back to the player tunnel, Ferguson did not forget to hit Shao Bo. He really used his psychological offensive to the extreme. .

"Cut." Shao Bo didn't answer. He just waited for the players to go back. He always likes to wait for everyone to return to the locker room before entering.

"It's nothing, everyone, don't have any psychological pressure. The two conceded goals in the first half were just luck. Everyone played very well. You don't have to blame Vieira. Who doesn't eat dumplings during the New Year, Gary There's no way Neville will be able to pass that kind of ball back and forth."

"Eat dumplings during Chinese New Year?" The players were a little confused. This is a Chinese idiom, how can foreigners understand it.Knowing that he had said something wrong, Shao Bo coughed twice to cover it up.

"In short, don't have any psychological pressure. Clubs concede goals every day on the football field, and we haven't conceded goals. Wouldn't he score 3 goals in the second half to win?"

"If you want to win, you can't lose the ball anymore. In the second half, we have to base ourselves on defense and wait for an opportunity to break through their goal! This time the players in the frontcourt don't have to worry about exhausting their energy. Only by scoring goals as soon as possible can we take the initiative right."

The second half began soon, with Bergkamp, ​​Zola and Anelka's three arrows constantly attacking Manchester United's defense.

It's a pity that Anelka's shot on the right side of the penalty area was blocked by the goalkeeper.Judging from the first half alone, Manchester United's goalkeeper Schmeichel was probably the most relaxed player today. In the first half, Arsenal did not attack the ball in front of him at all!

After 1 minute, Zola made a pass from the left, and Bergkamp missed the ball from the edge of the penalty area.He ran a little forward, and the ball slipped past Bergkamp's heel.After another 4 minutes, Bergkamp got rid of the two and made a cross. Anelka failed to compete for the header and the ball was easily picked up by the goalkeeper.

However, in the second half, Arsenal had resumed their offensive momentum. Although they did not score, the home fans also booed one after another and supported the team.

"weare gunner! weare the top!"

"weare gunner! weare the top!"

Of course, paying does not necessarily pay off.Arsenal gradually became unable to support such a high-intensity attack for a long time after repeated attacks to no avail.

As Arsenal eased the attacking pressure, Manchester United naturally wanted to go further, and a backheel pass from Cantona in the penalty area sent the ball directly to Solskjaer's feet.

"3:0! Solskjaer puts the ball in the goal easily! Arsenal's defeat is a foregone conclusion?"

Shao Bo was anxious, but he couldn't think of any good solution now, so he could only ask the team to press the offense and score at least one goal to save face.

Towards the end of the game Robbie Keane fouled Pratt.The latter passed a free kick from the left, and Mawson rushed to the top and hit the ball on the grass and ejected it into the net. The goalkeeper couldn't stop it, so he had to lament that his chance to clean up the opponent would have to wait until the next time.

After the game, Shao Bo's face was naturally livid, and he drank a glass of wine with Ferguson in a hurry.Shao Bo wanted to use boiled water to deal with it, but if he really did, he would be too embarrassed to do it.

"What's wrong with me? Could it be that there is something wrong with my mentality? I've been thinking too much about Valencia and Valencia lately, right? Subconsciously I underestimated Manchester United? Unfortunately, it's been a year and I still haven't found a chance to win well A Ferguson!"
