Football: The strongest center in history

Chapter 431: This is the temperament of the championship team

After such a hustle and bustle, the second round of the league came.

The start of the Premier League season has been no small test for Manchester United.

They are away at Tichelsea in the second round and then away at Liverpool in the third round.

These two games are very difficult to play.

The Daily Mail was pessimistic about Manchester United when looking forward to this game: “Two consecutive away tough games, this is a very serious test for Manchester United, especially for Moyes, the first round against Swansea, Manchester United won is not an accident, if Swansea can’t win, then Moyes may encounter a major crisis of confidence in the first round of the league.” And playing Chelsea in the second round is the real test for Moyes’ Manchester United. ”

Chelsea beat Hull City 2-0 at home in the first round of the season.

In this transfer window, Chelsea have completed two signings so far. 、

The first is, of course, the introduction of Wayne Rooney, an entry that Mourinho sees as an important replacement for Drogba.

In addition, Germany international Schurrle was also under the Chelsea network, as well as midfielder Shaheen who returned from Real Madrid on loan.

Chelsea have grown significantly this season.

And they don’t stop there, Chelsea are still stirring up the storm in the transfer market.

With their boss Abou’s connections in Russia, Chelsea are very likely to take away Brazilian international Willian, African cheetah Eto’o, from Russian Premier League giants Anzhi!

If successful, this transfer could greatly enhance Chelsea’s strength.

Although both David Moyes and Jose Mourinho are new managers this season.

But the understanding of the team by both sides is obviously not a level – Mourinho is the second palace, and now this Chelsea, the core backbone players, is still left over from the first period of Mu, so Mourinho’s appointment as Chelsea can be described as plug-and-play, and there is no need for any run-in period.

And Moyes?

He took over a red empire from a great manager, Alex Ferguson.

It’s too hard to adapt in a while.

Therefore, this game is regarded as a major test for Manchester United, and it is also an “interview” for Manchester United fans, and even players, on whether Moyes can firmly steer the big ship of Manchester United.

….

How is Moyes doing?

Actually, judging by the atmosphere in the away dressing room… He failed in this “interview”.

I have to say that Moyes made very meticulous preparations.

He explained the characteristics of Chelsea’s players at every point, their tactical routines, Chelsea’s strengths, Chelsea’s shortcomings, Jose Mourinho’s characteristics, and even when and where Hazard likes to attack.

In Moyes’ opinion, he was well prepared for this game.

For this game, he stayed up late to watch some of Mourinho’s highlights of the game, as well as a series of warm-up games for Chelsea this summer, and the first round of the league against Hull City.

Just look at Moyes’ dark circles and tell how hard he tried.

However, when Moyes finished speaking, the look of appreciation and realization of the Manchester United players he expected did not appear.

It was not what he expected…

When he was at Everton, when he had fully analysed the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent, his players’ faces would show a clear look.

But now…

Manchester United’s players just looked at each other.

Some of the older players’ brows furrowed.

Vidic and Rio Ferdinand were not included in the squad due to injuries.

Evra, who wore the captain’s armband for this game, looked at his teammates and knew he was going to come out and speak.

“Boss, do you pay too much attention to the other party?”

Moyes was stunned.

What do you mean?

Isn’t it good to value opponents?

Moyes doesn’t know so….

Ronado also frowned slightly.

Moyes’ analysis of his opponent made the proud Manchester United players feel a little comfortable.

Because from Moyes’ gesture, they saw a … A temperament that shows weakness.

A temperament that puts oneself on the weaker side.

This was absolutely invisible during the Ferguson period. 、

Manchester United are giants, strong teams, champions.

Such a team, of course, should be dominated by me, play at its own pace and control the game.

As for the matter of adapting to the opponent … Let’s leave this kind of thing to the other party to consider!!

This is the temperament of a championship team.

In the Ferguson era, the pre-match game arrangement, 90% of the arrangement, is how Manchester United will play, and the remaining 10% is to analyze the opponent.

And now… Moyes reversed.

Ronaldo looked at his teammates and wanted to say nothing, but he didn’t say it.

Wait until everyone is out of the dressing room.

Ronado stopped Moyes.

He felt that Moyes was a good man and that he needed to remind him.

“Boss, we are Manchester United…”

Ronaldo said.

“You don’t have to care what other teams do, as long as we play well, there will be no opponent who can beat us!”

Moyes was stunned.

He looked at Ronaldo’s back as he turned away, lost in thought.
