Pirated Ronaldo

Chapter 243 Temporary Trio

"Rooney and Van Nistelrooy have partnered up front! Isn't this combination rare?"

"Last season, the Red Devils' offensive power was worrying, with an average of only 1 goals per game. This is too far from Arsenal's 53 and Chelsea's 2. If you don't want to improve the midfield, the Red Devils? Hehe, The situation is still bad!"

"The king of the penalty area is Manchester United's trump card, but he played too few games last season! Does this mean that Ferguson re-emphasized Ruud van Nistelrooy?"

"The Red Devils have no player in the top ten scorers in the league. It is a failure! Van Nistelrooy is back, Manchester United still has hope! This is the right choice!"

Today's team training session is a semi-open training session, allowing some media reporters and Manchester United fans to enter and watch.

The media area next to the stadium was full of reporters, and thousands of fans in costumes surrounded the stands of the training center. However, don't think that the fans who came to watch the game were all here to observe Manchester United's first team in the new season. Heroic... on the stands, there are a few big slogans floating prominently:
"Glazer! Get out!"

"We want to see the real Manchester United! Manchester United belongs to us!"

This is a demonstration against the new owner, the Glazer family. They came to the stadium, perhaps to see the team's players, but more importantly, to express a meaning to the club and the media: they have not given up, and the Glazer family is still alive. is their enemy...

This is really a pain in the ass, the club's first team training was carried out in this atmosphere.

The eyes of reporters and fans are naturally focused on the main lineup first. Apart from Dutch goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, what attracted the most attention was Ferguson's changes in the front line. Van Nistelrooy and Rooney appeared together as the team's main line Double arrows, which probably only appeared when Rooney just transferred to Manchester United last summer.

However, the facts at the time proved that these two were not a good choice as partners.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is too "individual" to play football. He only has goals in his eyes. When the ball reaches his feet, he rarely creates opportunities for other teammates. He and Rooney can't play the role of 1+1=2 at all. Rooney's impact was broken by more than half.

And because Rooney played bravely in the UEFA Champions League group match when he represented Manchester United for the first time in September last year, scoring 9 goals alone, Ferguson resolutely decided to build a new striker around Rooney last season, so Van Nistelrooy gradually lost On the contrary, after one season, Rooney made a breakthrough in his personal career. In a single season, he scored 3 goals for Manchester United in various competitions and was elected the PFA Young Player of the Year.

But in general, the weakness of Manchester United's striker has become a crux of the problem, and Rooney alone cannot bear the burden of scoring goals.

Therefore, when reporters and fans saw that Ferguson once again arranged Van Nistelrooy and Rooney as strike partners, it immediately sparked heated discussions.

※※※

"Look! No. 22 from Portugal is the blue right-midfielder! Where's Quinton? Fortune? The South African sitting outside?"

"Oh hell! That 17-year-old with a big mouth took the bench?"

"Maybe it's just that Ferguson wants to give the new player a chance? Not letting him play as a right winger shows that he won't get a chance to play!"

Finally someone turned their attention to the side of the substitute team. This time, Ronando, who was wearing the No. 22 jersey, looked dazzling. The other players on the substitute team were all familiar old players, even the right back Adam Exley Manchester United youth team star, and has a record of playing for the first team, only Ronando is a rookie, it is difficult not to notice him.

If everyone's attitude towards the combination of Ruud van Nistelrooy + Rooney is anticipation, then they just dismiss Ronando!
Over the past few days, the result of heated discussions in the English media is that Ronaldo will become a mascot, at most he will play a few times in the insignificant English League Cup, and don't even think about getting a chance to play in other important games. , Ferguson and Manchester United can minimize to avoid being the target of media attacks.

Because, if Ronaldo does not play, there will be no game data, and there is no way to talk about the comparison between him and other young players in the Premier League. Although this still cannot avoid the embarrassment of Manchester United's mistaken signings, it is better than Manchester United being pointed at by the media. Nose ridicule, this may be Ferguson's only option to solve this trouble.

As for whether this arrangement is fair to Ronando himself... no one will ask this question!
If you don't die, you won't die. Who made Ronando not cherish the opportunity to join Manchester United, and insisted on firing a cannon at many media reporters, and it was a super cannon...

"Hohoho! Maybe we can write this: Portugal's miraculous teenager played bravely in the training game and occupied an important substitute spot on the right, or will become the new right wing guarantee of the Red Devils, and join hands with Ryan Giggs to form Manchester United's new wings!"

Suddenly, a tall, thin reporter in red expressed his opinion loudly, and he winked his eyes at the colleagues around him as he spoke.

high!It's really high!

The speaker was Henry Winter, a well-known independent writer in England and a reporter from The Daily Telegraph. He is a supporter of the Red Army Liverpool. To be precise, he supports Steven Gerrard, the number one midfielder in England. Has always been at odds with Manchester United.

Of course, everyone will not misunderstand what Henry Winter means. Of course, this guy will not tout for Manchester United players. His only purpose is to make a fuss. How excellent, forcing Ferguson to inconveniently abandon Ronando, but once Ferguson is forced to send Ronando out...then there is something to play!

Not to mention how the media reporters and fans reacted, Manchester United's team training is about to start.

Steven Lund was the temporary coach of the substitute team, while Queiroz was the coach of the main team. Coach Ferguson stood on the sidelines to observe all the players.

"Okay, don't be nervous. The defense must keep an eye on the opponent's arrow. Wes Brown keeps a close eye on Van Nistelrooy. Everyone else pays attention to Giggs and Rooney cutting in. They must also beware of Alan Smith in the middle.... Be careful, this is just training!"

Steven Round explained a few words very succinctly, mainly just making simple arrangements for defense, but he didn't say a word about offense.

This is not surprising at all. The significance of the existence of the substitute team today is to serve as a training partner. Testing the combat effectiveness of the main team is an important subject of training today. When it comes to tactical coordination, it is enough for the players to play freely on offense.

Ronando looked at these players on the bench, and his heart began to move.

Other players on the bench may have already accepted their position in the team, including the captain of the bench, central midfielder Paul Scholes of the Premier League's best team of the past ten years, he is 31 years old and currently playing in the The team is an important main force in the rotation. Paul Scholes is basically satisfied with such an arrangement.

However, there are some players who have the desire to perform, and hope to use their excellent performance to improve their status in the mind of the head coach.

For example, right back Adam Exley and hidden forward Giuseppe Rossi, although these two teenagers have entered the bench, they are very low in their positions. If there is no accident In other words, there are very few opportunities to even sit on the bench this season, basically the same as players who were dropped from the bench.

The other is the French forward Louis Saha. His situation is different. It can be said that Louis Saha is similar to Ronaldo. They are both ambitious guys. They want to be the main force!
"Adam, if you have a chance, pass the ball to me and hit the opponent behind! Make a bold assist, no matter what the coach says... you know?"

Adam Exley was Ronando's most familiar teammate. He heard Ronando's muttering clearly, his eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded happily.

After finishing his affairs, Ronando went to discuss with Luis Saha and Giuseppe Rossi.

The defense of the main team is strong. With Ronando alone, no matter what, the best way is to unite two forwards with their own ideas. With the three of them forming a triangle, Ronando may be able to Easier to get shots on goal.

"Brother Luis, Giuseppe, why didn't Coach Ronde tell us how to play our offense?... My bottom cross and 45° oblique pass are not bad, Brother Luis, can you see if I can play when I go forward? Help me pull the defender away and run open? . . . we can't just fight back?"

Ronando's tone of voice, dressed himself up like a passer who likes to pass assists, and nakedly seduced the two forwards.

"Oh? Your passing quality is very high?" Luis Saha was tempted first.

"Well, it's okay... My average assist rate in the Benfica team is No.1." Ronando continued to seduce, and what he said was true, but the assists he said were absolutely in line with Luis Saha's understanding of passing. It's not the same thing at all.

The pass that Luis Saha mentioned is what Beckham did before, using accurate long and short passes to send the ball to the striker's feet to help the striker get a chance.

The assists that Ronaldo mentioned are not letting the striker be the protagonist, but he himself is the protagonist, creating opportunities through breakthroughs, and finally he shoots the goal by himself, or passes the ball to the striker who has already run to the shooting position. Finish with the last kick.

"Okay! I'll help you attract the attention of the back line... Giuseppe, you want to show off too? Try to cooperate with him! It's best to pull Roy Keane away... Who said that our substitute team must Worse than the main team? Let's do it well!"

Luis Saha got excited and started assigning tasks with great interest.

In his opinion, he is an important player in the team who can compete with Ruud van Nistelrooy for the main position, and it is only natural that he should be the core and leader of this temporary trio!So Louis Saha did not forget to shout a slogan to encourage the two "young brothers" after making a simple arrangement.

Giuseppe Rossi opened his mouth, and finally nodded...According to Luis Saha's arrangement, he became a complete supporter, how can this work?
However, the smart Giuseppe Rossi did not refute, but secretly made up his mind: "I cover, you run to catch the ball? You are so beautiful! Don't I know how to run?"

In this way, a temporary trio with different ideas formed...
