What ball king, call me ball god

"This formation is 3241, and he can switch between 4141 and 451. When playing against a weak team, he can press the opponent in the opponent's half. There are many attackers in the frontcourt. Manchester United itself has been playing a high press for almost a season. Tactics, if the ball is lost in the frontcourt, 5 players, including 2 defensive midfielders, directly jump in to counter-attack. The ball can be easily recovered. Even if the ball cannot be recovered, one defensive midfielder immediately returns to the full-back position, and then 4 players Return to defense, and the single defensive midfielder also returns to defense to help. If you encounter high pressure and need to defend again, pull one of the attacking midfielders back to the defensive midfielder position. This will become a formation of 4 defenders and double defensive midfielders, and then Everyone returns to defense. In short, this is very efficient and fast." Gary Neville said.

"But there is also a shortcoming!" Lineker said, "He has extremely high requirements for the center, because there must be a center at the front. He must be able to score by himself, pass the ball to his teammates, and be able to pass the ball to his teammates. Attracting opportunities to create space for teammates. So, this is really not something that all teams can use!"

"So, currently only Manchester United is using this tactic. Even Manchester City, who invented this tactic, is not using it because their center is not suitable for this tactic." Ferdinand said with a smile.

Another guest, Richards, couldn't help but said: "As far as I know, Manchester City has begun to look for a new center. Obviously, Aguero is declining, and Jesus is not an absolute high center! Wait until Gua After Diola finds a new high center, I believe he will also use this tactic, there is no doubt about it!"

Lineker immediately answered: "Oh! Mika, are you saying you have Manchester City's internal communication channels?"

Richards smiled helplessly: "I have been in Manchester City for so many years. It is not strange that I have friends who still work in Manchester City. And Manchester City does not want to hide this kind of thing, so don't compare me with those The guy who leaked club secrets is linked!”

What Richards is talking about is that in recent times, especially after the epidemic, locker room dynamics and other internal situations at many clubs have appeared heavily in newspaper reports.He believes that this situation may stem from the challenges faced by clubs in operation and management during the epidemic. Of course, it may also be related to the livelihood difficulties in all walks of life.

Specifically, the lockdown and restrictions caused by the epidemic have led to the suspension of sporting events and difficulties in club operations.Many club staff may be under financial pressure as a result and may have to find additional sources of income.The sports sections of newspapers are often an important source of information for people to follow, so selling news and developments within the club to newspapers in the form of news may provide a way for staff to earn extra income.

The locker room is the core area of ​​the team. The dynamics and news in it often contain the internal situation of the team and the dynamics between the players. Sometimes they can even reflect the overall state and mental outlook of the team.Therefore, these news are often very attractive to fans and the media. In other words, they can be exchanged for a lot of money, and this money directly prompts these employees to take risks and pay the price to do these things.However, this over-exposure may have a negative impact on the team's internal operations, as it may destroy the balance and harmonious atmosphere within the team, and may also cause some of the team's strategies and plans to be prematurely exposed.But the employees who leaked the information may not care much about the consequences.

Lineker continued his analysis, saying: "Now that 33 rounds of the Premier League have been played, Manchester United tops the league with 92 points. This is a quite high score, and for other teams, this score is undoubtedly is an insurmountable obstacle. With 5 rounds left in the league, Manchester United has the opportunity to further improve their points and even exceed 100 points. If they can do this, they will become the first team in the history of the Premier League to have more than 89 points. 5% championship team! However, what is surprising is that Liverpool is closely followed with [-] points, ranking second in the league. Despite this, the two teams did not have a direct dialogue in the last [-] rounds. But from the schedule From the looks of it, Manchester United clearly has the advantage."

He picked up a glass of water and took a sip, and then continued: "In the remaining five rounds of Manchester United's matches, except for Leicester City, which is a stronger opponent, the other opponents are relatively weak. As for Liverpool, , they not only have to face strong teams such as Arsenal and Chelsea, but also compete with teams such as Burnley, Brighton and Newcastle that cannot be underestimated. From this aspect, Manchester United seems to have more opportunities and Advantage."

Lineker's eyes shone with anticipation and excitement for the future of the Premier League, and he continued: "Nonetheless, we cannot underestimate Liverpool. Their quality is unquestionable and they have proven their quality in many games in the past . The competition between the two teams will be very fierce. But in general, Manchester United seems to have a certain advantage in points and schedule. But this does not mean that the championship has been determined, because the Premier League venue It’s full of variables.”

He finally concluded: "In general, the Premier League championship battle has entered a fierce stage, and the next few rounds of games will be decisive moments. Let us look forward to the final result of this battle!"

On July 2023, 7, the much-anticipated 10th round of the Premier League match between Aston Villa and Manchester United took place at Villa Park.This is the last showdown of this round, attracting the attention of countless fans.

Before the start of the game, Liverpool had defeated Brighton 3-1 away from home, further consolidating their leading position in the standings.In the real-time standings, Liverpool has accumulated 92 points, but due to the disadvantage of goal difference, they are still ranked second.Nonetheless, this match against Aston Villa is too important for Manchester United to miss.

Before the game started, Manchester United encountered a series of emergencies.Three key players, Bentancur, Matic and De Jong, suddenly came down with the flu.Although this is not a fatal coronavirus, it still has a huge impact on Manchester United as the three of them are unable to participate in the upcoming games.Among these three, Bentancur and De Jong are the absolute core players of the team. Their absence will undoubtedly greatly reduce Manchester United's strength.Especially in Manchester United's current change of play and the adoption of a 3241 formation, although Bentancur is not the best candidate in the mind of coach Ten Hag, he is currently the most suitable player for this position in Manchester United's formation.

Now, Ten Hag is faced with the problem of replacing Bentancur and De Jong in these two positions.This is a major challenge, because Bentancur's role is not only technical, his leadership, decisiveness and team spirit are all indispensable in Manchester United's current lineup.

However, Ten Hag did not spend too much time on this.He made an unexpected decision and chose Lingard to replace Bentancur in the attacking midfielder position.Lingard is a versatile player whose running, passing and shooting abilities in the frontcourt are second to none.Although he is not the best choice, he can undoubtedly bring some new elements and vitality to Manchester United at this difficult moment.Nonetheless, Ten Hag and the entire Manchester United team need to find the best tactical strategy and personnel combination in the game to deal with this sudden blow.

Ten Hag then chose McTominay in De Jong's position. Frankly speaking, this was an even more unexpected choice.

Judging from the results of the game, Lingard and McTominay's performance was undoubtedly outstanding.Although Lingard did not get a lot of opportunities on the offensive end, he always performed stably in the game, including precise passes in the ribs at the front of the penalty area, creating opportunities for Greenwood to cut in and shoot.This was a wonderful collaboration between the Englishmen, and Greenwood finally opened the scoring, laying the foundation for Manchester United's victory.

Afterwards, Rashford made a personal breakthrough from the left and made a pass, but the quality of the pass was not ideal.However, due to luck, the pass bounced to McTominay's feet, and the Scottish midfielder did not hesitate to push into the far corner to score.McTominay's shot hit the dead center accurately, making the score 2-0.This goal is undoubtedly a highlight of this game.

Despite this, the best player in this game was not Lingard or McTominay, but Lin Kedi.Although he did not score in this game, his role in the frontcourt was very obvious.He kept running, attracting the attention of defensive players and creating multiple shooting opportunities for his teammates.For this reason, he was voted the best player of the game.

Link faced the media after the game and showed determination and enthusiasm when asked how he had dealt with Liverpool's pressing challenge.He said: "We are never afraid of any challenges. Although we face strong competition, we are confident in our own strength. We have scored the 95th point this season. This is the result of our hard work and our Proof of strength. But this is not the end, our goal is far beyond that.

"I believe that as long as we continue to maintain this effort and enthusiasm, we have the ability to score the 100th point. This goal is not out of reach for us. Every game is a new challenge and we will do it with positivity. face it with an attitude. Moreover, I believe that when we achieve this goal, the whole team will hold the championship trophy high together. This is our common pursuit of success and the source of motivation for our perseverance.

"Although the competition is fierce, I believe that our team has the ability to achieve this goal. There is no doubt about it, I firmly believe in it. Our team has excellent players, they have excellent skills, good teamwork spirit, and An indomitable spirit in the face of challenges. All this gives us the strength and confidence to win the championship.

"We will face difficulties and challenges, but please believe that we can do this! We will continue to work hard, continue to fight, and work harder to achieve our goals. Our team is resilient and we have the ability Overcome any difficulties and achieve final victory.

"In general, we will face the challenges ahead with a positive attitude. No matter what difficulties we face, we will persevere because we have strong faith and determination.
