The most low-key superstar

Chapter 295 Rome!I am coming!

Unlike Manchester United's step-by-step adjustments, Guardiola, a young coach, still has a lot to learn compared to Ferguson. Unlike Ferguson, who focuses on adjusting the player's status, Guardiola is collecting videos of Manchester United's important games this season.

Watching the video with him is also his coaching staff.

As more and more games are watched, a word keeps flashing in Guardiola's mind, that is 'stability'.

"This Manchester United team is too stable, terrifyingly stable." Guardiola couldn't help but take a breath, yes, Manchester United's performance is too stable.

"Yes, Josep, the stability is unbelievable, which is completely inconsistent with their age structure. You see, these people in the frontcourt, Rooney, Nicole, Fletcher, Tevez, Nani, which one is not Mao? It's unbelievable, boy." Viralova, Guardiola's early roommate, also expressed his opinion, and obviously, he also noticed it.

"They have a characteristic at the beginning." A coach sitting behind suddenly opened his mouth.

Guardiola glanced back, "What characteristic?"

"Their opening went to two extremes, either they suddenly showed their strength and directly crushed their opponents, such as the second leg against Arsenal, or they were a slow process, such as against Porto. I watched them carefully all season. This feature became more and more obvious in the second half of the season, I think we can use it."

"Yes, I can use it well, but how to use it?" Guardiola was lost in thought.

"There is also this Nichol. I think many teams have fallen into a misunderstanding in defense against Nichol, that is, focusing on defending Nichol himself and ignoring a key figure." This old coach is usually not obvious, At this critical moment, the continuous words are amazing.

Nickle is the key to Manchester United. Whether it is defense or offense, this Nickle is the core of the Manchester United team. Many teams have a headache for Nickel, but they can't find a good solution. They can't grow old. Waiting for Nichol's own condition to be bad, Guardiola is actually most worried about this Nichol.

"What? Who did we ignore?" Guardiola was delighted.

"Rooney!"

"Rooney?"

"That's right, many teams ignored Rooney. I carefully watched all the offenses that Nicole instigated. When Rooney was there, the scoring rate was much worse than when Rooney was not. Moreover, every time Nichol counterattacked Sometimes, Rooney's running position always pulls away the main defensive force of the opponent. There is a phenomenon that it is not Rooney who benefits the most from Nicole's counterattack. It's Wayne Rooney, who gets the least assists from Nicole, but Manchester United have the best win rate in games like this."

Guardiola carefully recalled the process of watching the game these days, and it really happened.He didn't speak, and continued to wait for the old coach named Juan Carlos to speak.

"Rooney is the original core of Manchester United, even the core of reconstruction, but Ferguson's tactics determine that Rooney is destined not to become a high-yield shooter. His role is to deter. Once the defense against Rooney is relaxed, then Rooney will become It’s a goalkeeper’s nightmare, but paying attention to Rooney’s defense will involve a lot of defensive energy, and other people can take advantage of it. It used to be Ronaldo, and now it’s Nickel.”

"Nicole is not the same as Ronaldo," Vilalova interjected, "C Ronaldo stole the limelight by himself, but this Nicole is even more terrifying. The scary thing is that he leads a group of people to share this, and Nicole is still in the limelight." There is one quality, that is, he has the ability to work alone, but most of the time, he hides this."

Viralova's level is really good, and he can thoroughly analyze the tactical nature of Manchester United in a few words.

"How do we restrain our opponents? This is the key."

"Liverpool has set an example for us. Many teams have tried to do this, that is, to constantly use offense, continuous offense, to suppress Manchester United. However, the strength of most teams is not up to it, and they cannot suppress Manchester United at all. Manchester United, because Manchester United is too strong, but I think we should be able to try." Carlos continued.

"It can only be like this, well, make a plan." Guardiola made up his mind.

In fact, Guardiola is also under a lot of pressure. Although he is the head coach, there is still a pope in the club who likes to talk, that is the Dutchman Cruyff. After the game against Chelsea, Cruyff passed His secretary expressed serious dissatisfaction with the team, which caused Barcelona coach Guardiola, who returned to Spain, to be questioned. This time, Cruyff went too far. He has publicly said in front of the media, "This In this game, Barcelona will definitely win a great victory, they will use artistic football, pure football to defeat any opponent, and let football return to its origin."

"Damn, old man..." Thinking of this, Guardiola cursed secretly in his heart. Cruyff's statement pushed Guardiola to a desperate situation. He had no way out. He had to use offense to defeat his opponent. Of course, the coaching staff The analysis further strengthened his confidence.

Barcelona's offense has been talked about by fans all over the world this season, but few people know that the most important thing that Guardiola's team has changed compared with previous coaches is the transformation of the team's defense , especially the integration of the defensive system, is the main reason for the infinite glory of Barcelona's offense.

However, there is now a huge crack in the back line that Guardiola is most proud of, that is, the suspension of Alves and Abidal, which has dealt a huge blow to Barcelona.

Let’s not talk about the defense, but from the offensive point of view, the ability of the two full-backs to participate in the offense is almost an important force in Barcelona’s offense, especially Alves, who will replace him, now makes Guardiola worry.

Compared with Barcelona's lack of defense, although Fletcher's absence has an impact on Manchester United, but for Manchester United, the most indispensable are Nicole, Rooney, and Ferdinand. The existence of these three players is almost The integrity of Manchester United's entire skeleton, Fletcher's suspension is acceptable to Manchester United.

That's why, now, Mr. Ferguson can appear on the racetrack very easily, and he even has a good partner, Perrin.

"Alex, don't you know how to worry? I'm in the mood to watch a horse race right now." Perrin was a little puzzled that Ferguson was still in the mood to watch a horse race when he was about to go to Rome.

In the past few days of training, Manchester United has almost been practicing defensive counterattacks, which has nothing to do with the offensive battles promoted by the outside world.

In fact, the main purpose of Ferguson's high-profile appearance at the racetrack was to relieve pressure on his teammates, because as the game approached, Ferguson found that some players were obviously a little nervous. Recently, the club organized players to watch some Barcelona games. Clip of the match, apparently some people were spooked by the opponent's firepower.

"Come on, David, don't worry about any tactics. We don't need to study any tactics. Hiddink has already prepared them for us. We don't need to waste any more time." Ferguson comforted Perrin.

"However, Chelsea lost, and the Spaniards went to Rome." Perrin was still a little unwilling.

"If we also meet a referee like Herning, we will not win no matter how hard we try. I think if those big men in UEFA even arrange the final, then why should we bother ourselves? Hey, David, look, 'Lightning Star', it's great!" Ferguson's attention was drawn to a horse about to enter the field.

Ferguson's appearance at the racetrack certainly attracted a lot of media attention. They are probably guessing why Ferguson appeared here at such a critical moment. Could it be that the Red Devils are not the finalists, and don't they need to prepare for the game?
What made the reporters even more puzzled was that on the other side of the city, Nicole's family also appeared on the street. Nicole was wearing casual clothes, pushing a stroller, and beside him was his smiling wife. Where is the tension before the game?

The doubts of the reporters are also justified. This afternoon, they experienced the tense atmosphere before the final at the Carrington Base. Outside the base, hundreds of Manchester United fans chanted slogans and sent away the Manchester United players after training. Today It was the last day for the Manchester United team to train at the Carrington base. The next morning, they would set off to Rome as a whole team. After settling in, they had a day to adapt, and then the final the day after tomorrow night.

The fans who showed up outside the base were die-hard Red Devils fans, chanting. "Champion! Champion!"

"We're going to defend! We're going to defend!"

"Long live the Red Devil!"

"Long live the Red Devil!"

The abnormal news from the Manchester United team quickly spread to Spain. After hearing this, Guardiola was also very suspicious. He didn't know what medicine Ferguson bought in his gourd. Guardiola, the head coach in [-], couldn't help doubting his own tactical arrangements. He hurriedly held a plenary meeting of the coaching staff. He wanted everyone to analyze the loopholes in his team's tactical arrangements.

However, the meeting ended in less than 5 minutes, and the key figure was the soon-to-be-retired Juan Carlos.

When Guardiola reported the news from Manchester, Carlos laughed, "There is no need for a meeting, this is Ferguson's usual method, if we have a meeting, it proves that he has succeeded, this is the old guy Ferguson again Started his psychological warfare, he was using these things to interfere with us."

Only then did Guardiola know that he was fooled, 'still inexperienced. '

At ten o'clock in the morning on May 2009, 5, the chartered plane of the Manchester United team arrived at Rome's Fiumicino Airport. When they walked out of the T25 terminal, Nicole thanked Giggs for the reminder and prepared a pair of sunglasses in advance. Put it on, so that you won't be dazzled by the reporters' flashing lights.

Barcelona had arrived half an hour ago, and their bus had just left the airport, and the airport that had just restored order had become chaotic again because of the arrival of Manchester United. As one of the busiest airports in the world, of course it was impossible to let Manchester United is here to affect the operation of the airport.

Under the protection of a large number of security guards, the Red Devils finally broke through the encirclement and boarded the bus.

Looking at the city view of Rome outside the window, Nicole also felt a little excited, 'Rome!I am coming! '

The finals are about to begin. From the perspective of Beijing opera, this is the core (hu) of this season. I look forward to everyone's support!
