Football’s First Defender

Chapter 373: Manchester United's threatening attack

Rogers is very optimistic about the technical ability of this young man Coutinho. After all, he was also a young talent who was famous in Brazil at the time. It is only limited by the joining mechanism of youth training players (Brazil players under the age of 18 can only transfer to grapes. Can't go to other European leagues), after Inter Milan signed him that year, he had to play for his original club on loan.

In European football, in the past two years, I don’t know how many young talents will emerge. When Coutinho reached the age mark, he came to Italy and came to Inter Milan, only to find that Inter Milan now has the prospect of him. Not optimistic.

Rogers passed this transaction, on the one hand, to strengthen the reserve of technical personnel in the midfield and prepare for possible injuries. On the one hand, he also wants to try. In the second half of the season, this young man will be given a certain opportunity. See if you can surprise yourself more.

   After quickly completing the operation of buying and selling the winter window, even if the winter window window is still closed for more than half a month, Liverpool has entered the stage of military preparation early.

   After 21 league rounds, Liverpool now has 36 points, ranking 6th in the Premier League.

   The top team is Manchester United, one of the best rivals of Liverpool. With 52 points, it is the best. After Manchester United was dramatically let Manchester City win the championship last season, in the league this season, it showed the absolute dominance of the traditional giants. Now there is a huge gap of 16 points with Liverpool.

   For Liverpool, it is no longer realistic to compete for the Premier League championship this season. The team's most realistic goal is to revert to competing for the Champions League qualification this season.

   Now the defending champion Manchester City ranks second in the league with 45 points. It is not too much pressure on Manchester United, but to keep the second place, only the second half of the season will not make a big mistake. Manchester City should have no problem.

The fiercest competition, the same as last season, is the third or fourth place, and it is not the usual six giants. The weaker four teams compete for the third or fourth place. This time, seven teams compete for the third or fourth place. Champions League places.

Tottenham’s 39 points are third in the league, Yang Feng’s old club Chelsea’s 38 points, Liverpool’s city rival Everton’s 37 points, are ahead of Liverpool, while Arsenal’s 34 points and West Bromwich’s 33 points , And they are not much different from Liverpool's points.

   Among them, Everton and West Bromwich, whose personnel reserves are significantly worse, are very likely to fall behind.

   The four-game situation this season, after the Christmas schedule, is still confusing. No matter which team is slightly slack, everyone is likely to fall behind.

And every game requires serious preparation for Liverpool. After the team "closed the winter window" in advance, the first opponent in the league is now the top team Manchester United, the second double red meeting this season. , Will be launched at Old Trafford Stadium.

For Liverpool, although Sturridge performed well in his first show, his opponent in the third round of the FA Cup is a low-level league opponent after all. After repeated consideration, Rogers still did not dare to come to the team for only 10 Sturridge of the day, starting in a double-red game.

   However, although the team may change the starting line frequently and there may be a tacit cooperation problem, it is better than exposing one's own weakness to the opponent.

   Therefore, the team lineup and the game formation have changed again under Rogers's tuning.

   For Liverpool, the official stance map is 433 formation.

The four defenders and the goalkeeper have not changed. The three midfielders, Lucas, Joe Allen, and Gerrard are lined up from left to right on the stance chart. In the game, how to adjust the stance and focus on offense and defense, but also The specific situation when you see it.

   As for the three forwards, Downing and Sterling are separated from each other. Of course, Suarez is in the middle of the front.

   Once again, Tang Ning, the absolute main player of last season, began to appear more in Liverpool's lineup. In the previous half of the season, there was not enough playing time. Recently, thanks to Rogers' changes, he started to have more time.

At both ends of the offense and defense, Rogers, who has been unable to find a balance point, began to further strengthen the defensive ability of the defense by limiting the insertion range of the two full-backs. The well-known assaultman made a fuss, abandoning the attack power that must be in the middle, to supplement the offensive firepower of the side.

   Even at Old Trafford Stadium, Rogers still hopes to use offense to obtain the suppression on the offensive end and play a vigorous game.

   Manchester United played at home, but Ferguson did not change the lineup like Rogers did. It is still the team's most familiar lineup. In the event of personnel injuries, they use a huge talent pool to provide spare talent.

   can be refined into a 4231 formation, the central defender partner is Ferguson's most trusted two-man combination of Ferdinand and Vidic. Evra and Rafael are still the fixed choice of two full-backs.

Goalkeeper De Gea still guards Manchester United’s door. The strength of this back line may be the highest for Manchester United today. They will use their strength and experience to limit one of the most popular strikers in the Premier League this season. Suarez.

   The reason why Suarez is only one of the most popular strikers, rather than the only one, is because Manchester United’s starting striker is still the indomitable General Van Persie.

   Rooney is limited by injury factors, and he has not played many games this season, but Van Persie, who shot from Arsenal this season, has made up for Rooney’s lack of firepower output.

   Yang Feng and Skrtell, this game will continue to limit Van Persie's offensive end as the first task.

Carrick also has academy player Cleverly, the double defensive midfielder of Manchester United in this match, while Shinji Kagawa, Welbeck, and Ashley Young are on the official stance map. The field is lined up.

   Considering that Welbeck may be better at finishing ability, so in this game, Manchester United can adjust back to 442 and push Welbeck up to serve as a firepower point in the penalty area.

   From the beginning of the game, the two teams focused on the midfield area and started fighting.

  Liverpool, who wanted to open the field with three sharp axes, and Manchester United, who also wanted to seize the opening, directly faced the tip of the needle. Both sides tried various methods to break through the opponent's defense.

   The running, interleaving, and passing of the offensive players, pushing forward little by little.

   But the defensive side has arranged a line of defense, blocking, delaying, blocking space, and layered defenses, which will weaken the threat of the opponent's attack little by little and ensure the safety of the team's defense.

  Strong matchup is like this. The two sides may play very lively in the game, but there are very few ways to create such an excellent opportunity to hit the goal with one shot.

In more cases, because the attacking party has to take into account the problem of its own defense, it wants to take the initiative, but it is not the strongest offensive firepower to face the opponent's almost full push hands, it is difficult to completely break through all the defenses Form an offensive, more often it is to attack near the restricted area and get stuck.

   Yang Feng and Scotter performed very well today. In the situation where the ball possession rate, the number of shots and the number of threats are not much different, the attack opportunities created by both sides are similar.

   However, due to the maturity of Manchester United's defensive system and the better experience of defensive players, Liverpool's real threats are not as many opportunities as Manchester United.

   Especially Liverpool's right defense. Although the teenager Wisdom is very active in the game, he can not make up for his lack of strength and defensive experience.

  Manchester United's offense is mostly concentrated on Wisdom's side, just to make a threat this time.

   In the 17th minute of the game, after mutual testing in the opening stage, Manchester United's offensive continued from the center to the left.

   "Evra also stepped forward to participate in the attack this time."

   "But Evra is only playing a role in the wing, Manchester United's attack this time, should still be based on the center."

Indeed, Shinji Kagawa, Cleverly, Welbeck, Carrick and other good players gathered in the middle, and the ball is also passed in the middle area. For Liverpool’s defense, of course, it is also necessary to assemble heavy troops in the middle to deal with opponents. Possible offense.

   "Kagawa Shinji took the lead and broke through. After meeting the Liverpool defender, he gently knocked the ball to the foot of Welbeck who had received it."

  "Welbeck passed the ball forward with a straight pass and passed the ball to Cleverly, who had already been inserted near the penalty area line."

   "With a non-stop ball, and facing Liverpool's defensive players, it is possible to complete a high-intensity defense at any time. Cleverly, the first time he chose to mobilize space by cross."

   "Evra on the left receives the ball!"

   "Weissdom's approach is a bit slow to block, Evra has plenty of time to adjust and choose."

   "A flat ball passed, bypassing Visdom, who had come to the defense, and swept the ball directly into the center of Liverpool's penalty area."

   "Van Persie followed up and hit the door!"

   "Yang Feng!"

   "From the diagonal stabbing, the sliding shovel fell to the ground, and first touched the football and changed the course of the ball."

   "Scotter, who was nearby, made a clearance and stopped Manchester United's attacking round."

  Vesdom, as an extremely young right back, who can represent Liverpool on the field, naturally has certain strength and future prospects, but the lack of defensive experience is also inevitable.

   Active running. With so many rounds, Wisdom can still be jailed for the team’s starting point.

   But it is this kind of enthusiasm, this time in the defense, it almost caused a big mistake.

   Facing the heavy forces gathered in Manchester United's mid lane, Wisdom approached the mid lane very actively and wanted to help his teammates complete possible defenses.

   is in the process of getting close to the center. Cleverly knows that there is a big open space on the left. He can take the ball directly and pursue speed, so that Weisdom can not easily return to the defense position.

After   , Evra's pass was completely worthy of his starting position at Manchester United, with speed and precision. It is a pity that Evra and Van Persie formed a tacit understanding, but did not complete the final blow.

   Yang Feng, who had been observing the situation in the penalty area, naturally scanned the empty space on the side of Wisdom, but it was too late to remind him.

On the court, many moments are changing rapidly. Yang Feng’s command has not yet said it. Cleverly’s connection with Evra, Evra’s attempt to pass the ball to Van Persie in the penalty area, has already done it like lightning. .

Yang Feng can only rely on his grasp of the passing direction, rushing out the first time, using the defensive action of the sliding shovel to increase the distance of his foot forward, and strive to complete the ball before Van Persie completes the goal Contact, destroy the opponent's chance of hitting in the penalty area.

   Manchester United sits at the home court, and amidst the cheering of the fans, they launched their threatening attack opportunities.

   Although Manchester United and Liverpool are almost the same in terms of statistics, the real discussion of threats is that Manchester United, which sits on the home court, puts Liverpool in a lot of offensive threats.

   In the 24th minute of the game, Manchester United took advantage of the end of Liverpool's frontcourt attack to directly counterattack.

   Welbeck and Van Persie, they plunged into Liverpool's hinterland at full speed.

   Cleverly, who was responsible for dribbling the ball in the midfield and backcourt, used his passing characteristics in this counterattack.

   "At the midfield line, Cleverly dribbled the ball to counterattack, and directly sent a precise through pass~www.readwn.com~ to find Welbeck at the edge of the penalty area."

   Compared to Van Persie, who has more free space on the right side, Cleverly judged very quickly and chose Welbeck, who could pose a greater threat after receiving the ball.

   After all, although Van Persie has more room to receive the ball, the shooting angle is still a little too small in the far right position. Cleverly's choice this time should be correct.

   "Welbeck, excellent stop, after receiving Cleverly's pass, he stopped and led, moved laterally, and hit the goal with his left foot!"

   I have to say that Welbeck's own offensive strength is indeed good. In this counterattack, Welbeck's target who entered the core area of ​​Liverpool is Yang Feng.

   Facing Yang Feng, Welbeck just used more running to prepare to give full play to his speed expertise.

   A lateral kink movement, just in time to receive a straight pass from a teammate, and then took the lead, took a step with his left foot, and directly volleyed, flowing water, an extremely smooth offensive round.

   But...

   "Yang Feng again, another precise remedial defense."

   "Faced with Welbeck's shot, Yang Feng, who was responsible for guarding him, reacted quickly. When Welbeck half-turned and made a shot, he fell to the ground, increased his body area, and finished blocking the ball."

   "This kick has successfully made Yang Feng the best player on the field once again. On the defensive end, Liverpool's success cannot be separated from Yang Feng's defensive efforts..."
