The most low-key superstar

Chapter 100 Challenge Toffee

Nicole has resumed training, but he is training with the youth team, and now there is no tactical drill. There are only 7 people in the entire Manchester United first team. Even Ferguson has no intention to pay attention to training issues. He can only pray silently. When the team regroups, don't give yourself a bunch of injuries, otherwise it will be a disaster.

Now Manchester United is facing a huge test. When the tired players return to the team, in just two days, the team will face an away game against Everton in the league. Last season was more mature and stable, with a hint of strong team demeanor. Immediately after the game against Everton, the away game against Lisbon in the Champions League group stage was ushered in. Now it is almost impossible to win all the games. So now he has to choose, but how to choose, now he can't help but scold the FA in his heart, because today the FA has clearly rejected Manchester United's application to postpone the league.

On the 13th, McLaren was in high spirits again, because England defeated the Russian team led by direct rival Guus Hiddink 3-0 cleanly. This performance made the whole England in the joy of victory, and now England is in the group position Very well, the initiative is completely in their own hands, and even Hiddink admitted, "If England continue to perform like this, our European Championships will have little hope, but we will never give up."

Nickell knew that McLaren's biggest weakness was about to be exposed, a flaw that would cost him his reputation and, at the same time, lead England into the abyss.But Nickell doesn't have more energy to care about his life and death, and now he will face Everton's game immediately.

Moyes stood on the sidelines and looked at the players under him with a sense of pride. Although Ferguson had repeatedly expressed his hope that he would become his successor, it was obvious that he did not want to be dubbed a certain heir. To start your own business to prove yourself.

"Let's introduce the rosters of the two sides. First, let's take a look at Everton. Everton at home still continues their usual 442 formation. The goalkeeper is Howard who just transferred from Manchester United. Facing his old club, I believe He will use his performance to prove himself and prove that Manchester United was wrong to abandon him. The defenders are Hibbert, Yobo, Stubbs, and Lescott. The midfielders are Osman and Phil, who is also from Manchester United. Neville is also the captain on the field, Carsley, and the Spaniard Arteta, and the forwards are Andy Johnson and Gagielka." The biggest highlight of this round of competition is Everton vs. Manchester United at home, so it was arranged global live broadcast.

Originally, the focus of this round was the north London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal. However, the poor performance of Tottenham since the start of the game forced Sky TV, which obtained the broadcasting rights, to temporarily adjust the number of games. However, when they got Manchester United's lineup That regret at the time, no one thought that Mr. Ferguson would send out such a lineup.

"Next, let's take a look at Manchester United's roster. The goalkeeper is the Dutchman Van der Sar. This 36-year-old veteran has shown an admirable competitive state since he came to Manchester United. The defenders are Brown, Pique, O'Shea, Sylvester, a strange combination, look at the midfield again, Fletcher, Nickel, Scholes, Park Ji-sung, Tevez and Solskjaer in the forward, oh well, Manchester United is a team today A new combination, but this combination feels like Manchester United have given up the game, I don't think this is a good idea." Taylor is obviously not satisfied with Manchester United's arrangement.

"Previously, Manchester United was the only team to maintain a complete victory in the first five rounds of the league. Arsenal remained unbeaten with 4 wins and 1 draw. Everton ranked fourth with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, while Chelsea ranked fourth. Only 4 win, 1 draws and 3 loss is disappointing. After the end of this round, the battle for the top spot may change. I think it is difficult for Tottenham to stop Arsenal's progress. Surprising strength." Morrison also commented on some of his own views.

"Crack!" Ferguson turned off the TV and looked back at the players, "You've all seen it, this is how the media evaluates you. They think we have given up the game and you are all dispensable waste. They say you can't win the game, what do you think?"

"No, boss, we can win." The dissatisfaction in the hearts of the players was very strong.

"Okay! Prove yourself. If no one gets injured, I won't make a substitution. I'll give you enough time to prove it." Coach Ferguson said slowly, and then he led the others out first.

In the player tunnel, Nickel looked at the provocative Everton players next to him. It is not difficult to guess that Moyes has also adjusted his morale to the highest level. The temptation to pick the best club in England is big enough.

Arteta, a midfielder who came to the Premier League from Spain, has become the absolute core of Everton's midfielder last season. His performance almost determines the direction of Everton's performance. Looking at the young man on the opposite side ——Nicole, he remembered what the head coach Moyes said to himself, you must be careful, 'Arteta, you have to be careful of this Nicole, you have played against him before, you should know that this is a difficult one Guy, you have to increase the speed of the pass, expand the range of running, and don't let him get entangled. This is the key to our game. '

The game started immediately. Moyes stood on the sidelines and glanced back at the Manchester United bench. There were Giggs, Rooney, Saha, Carrick, Vidic and other famous stars sitting there. If I have so many players like this, what can I do better than you, successor?Joke, I, David Moyes, will never be anyone's successor. '

The fans sang "Here We Go". In the singing, the game started. After the game started, Everton showed a high-spirited attitude and launched an attack on the hinterland of Manchester United. to fight together with the opponent.

Everton took full advantage of the width of the pitch, and after a fierce attack in the opening few minutes, Arteta slowed down the overall rhythm, constantly using the ball to mobilize the United defense, just as Moyes predicted. On Arteta, he hoped that he could limit the soul of Everton, but Nichols gradually discovered that today's opponent is very smart, he does not entangle with himself, but quickly passes the ball out, and constantly Changing his position made it difficult for Nickell to grasp the opponent's offensive line. On the contrary, when Nickel took the ball, the opponent seemed to be loose, but blocked all angles and cut off Nickel's passing route.

Nickell knows that today's game will be very difficult. Everton is using overall football to deal with Manchester United, and the effect has been good so far.
