Pirated Ronaldo

Chapter 567 Comprehensive Test
Wigan, a small town west of Manchester, J** Stadium.

Today's Manchester United starting lineup is very young, including Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, and Rio Ferdinand, the three team captains and vice captains are all excluded from the starting lineup, because although the team has just passed a It's a long rest period, but three days later it will be a life-and-death battle with Real Madrid, so I have to guard against it.

Real Madrid is in a period of turmoil at the moment, do they still have the power to fight back?This is a very stupid question!

A team with a large number of superstars such as Zidane, Ronaldo, Beckham, etc., will retain the power to fight no matter what happens. The reason why these people can be called superstars is because they have too much practical experience , so rich that you don't need to give them instructions, or even give them any advice, as long as you throw these people on the field, they can all exert great fighting power!
At this juncture, the Real Madrid club will be chaotic, the fans will be chaotic, and the players will also be chaotic, but chaotic players may not be able to play well when they are on the pitch.

First, the superstars have their own dignity, and they will use practical actions to defend their dignity; second, no matter how chaotic Real Madrid is, they are still rich, and the superstars may not want to continue to find their place in Real Madrid next season, so they must Work hard to make a good impression on yourself; third, the Galaxy Fleet will inevitably disintegrate, but these players will still be active on the court, and their current performance will determine their fate in the summer transfer period, including taking over. Realistic issues such as the team, worth, salary, etc.

So, is Real Madrid, who will come to Old Trafford, necessarily weaker than the first round?I'm afraid not necessarily!
Reasonable fans may come to a conclusion: the upheaval of Real Madrid will cause a change in the battle between Manchester United and Real Madrid. The big victory above the ball kicked Manchester United out!

Is the 2:1 away advantage irreversible?If Real Madrid does not change, it almost means that Real Madrid is out. But if Real Madrid changes, Manchester United must be more cautious. Once Manchester United is eliminated under absolutely favorable circumstances, then the failed Manchester United will not only become a big joke, And it will suffer heavy losses, and this season may be ruined.

As the saying goes, there is no big mistake in being careful. If today's opponent is not the somewhat elusive Wigan Athletic, Queiroz will even send a pure youth army to play!
"Look! Queiroz is saving his energy for the Champions League match against Real Madrid! None of the veterans played!"

"Maybe Wigan has a chance of winning today, maybe a draw?"

"Patrice Evra! Gerald Pique! Tsk tsk... Paul Jewell would be a shame if he didn't take his chance!"

In the media area of ​​the J** stadium, reporters commented on both sides' playing lists. Although no one thought that Manchester United would lose, the general view was: because Manchester United had substitute players in several positions, Paul- Jewell's Wigan Athletic has some opportunities, and today's game may become an upset.

There is nothing unacceptable in itself. Generally speaking, whenever a strong team has an important European game to deal with, other teams can always take advantage of it.

However, judging from the starting lineup, Queiroz's rotation is very strong!
Left forward Park Ji-sung, left back Patrice Evra, and right back Gerald Pique, two of these three players are new winter aids, and there is also a solid young substitute, except Park Ji-sung in the first few games There have been many appearances in the game, the other two are the first starts after January, and the French Senegalese defender Evra is the first time for Manchester United.

Goalkeeper: No. 1 John Phelan
Forwards: No. 22 David Connolly, No. 30 Jason Roberts, No. 7 Henry Kamara

Midfielders: No. 24 Reto Ziegler, No. 10 Lee McCulloch, No. 21 Jimmy Bullard

Defenders: No. 18 David Unsworth, No. 6 Steinhan Henkez, No. 16 Arjan Dezeuu, No. 2 Pascal Chimbonda
Today's Wigan Athletic, compared with the Wigan Athletic that appeared at Old Trafford in December last year, except for the more experienced 12-year-old Australian veteran John Phelan in the goalkeeper position, The main change was their left flank, on the side facing Ronaldo, and Wigan manager Paul Jewell changed all the players on this flank.

Left winger, the 29-year-old Irish player David Connolly is a technical winger. He is slender, with good speed and technique. He has a pass and is also good at shooting inside. He has been in the British Championship for many years The league, the most commendable is that he played for the relegated West Ham United in the 2003-04 season, wearing the No. 8 jersey. The imported players are worth 200 million pounds, but due to the outstanding performance of Senegalese striker Kamara, Connolly rarely has the chance to start.

Left forward Reto Ziegler, a 20-year-old Swiss genius, was bought by the Premier League Tottenham from the Zurich Grasshoppers for £100 million in January last year. This transaction caused a sensation at the time because Ziegler is tall and strong, and what is rare is that he is a left-wing wizard. From left winger to left midfielder, to left back, he can complete the task well, but after half a year, Tottenham loaned this young player to In the Bundesliga Hamburg, the reason is that Ziegler is considered "not enlightened". During this year's winter transfer period, Wigan obtained the right to use Ziegler for half a season on loan.

Left back David Unsworth, a 32-and-a-half-year-old veteran, is characterized by fierceness and stability.

my God!Wigan coach Paul Jewell is going to fulfill his promise before the game. He wants to make Manchester United's monster disappear from the pitch!

Anyone who sees the list of Wigan's starting players will express such emotion!
The reason is very simple. Paul Jewell is too targeted. He has basically not adjusted the center and right of his opponent's team. All replacements on the left!

Technical winger Connolly + Swiss teenage genius Ziegler + experienced Unsworth!
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that Wigan coach Paul Jewell has exhausted his mind on how to defend Manchester United's right-sided monster Ronando. The three players have their own characteristics. Connolly at the front The offensive skills are good. Unsworth at the back is mature and stable, and Ziegler in the middle is all-round and good at attacking and defending. Although there is no big-name star in such a wing, even the most picky coach can Must nod secretly.

Wigan coach Paul Jewell can arrange such a wing configuration with both offense and defense, and no shortcomings can be found, which is amazing!
Wigan Athletic is not a big team. If there is a certain team that can equip players at this level on the left and right sides, and give a little bit more power in the middle, once such a team is well-adjusted, it will be fine. It's not a bad idea to use it to compete with the top four in the Premier League.

Of course, to say that Paul Jewell's left wing is capable and can compete with the top four in the Premier League does not mean that a team composed of such a team can achieve results comparable to giants in a season. It is impossible. , because the personal abilities of these Wigan players are not top-notch after all, and their performance will not be stable. After a long time, the opponent team will find a way to crack them, take advantage of the shortcomings of these players, and beat them to the ground.

However, it is safe to say that it is enough to hit a game or two with this configuration!
So, when Wigan Athletic's starting list was released, everyone immediately thought of an interesting question: When Manchester United's monster encounters this carefully arranged and targeted wing lineup, what can he do?
This is a real comprehensive test of Ronando's offensive and defensive skills!

When Ronando participates in the offense, he will be one against two, and when he is in the defensive position, it will still be one against two!

Although the football position is not static, and Ronando will also get help from his teammates near the position, but the basic formation must have value. Paul Jewell is determined to die today. He weakened in the middle In order to improve the defensive strength, the basic formation was adjusted from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3, just to take a gamble, if such Wigan Athletic can make Ronando lost in the opponent's numerical advantage and lose the siege The ability to pull out the wall, Paul Jewell's Wigan Athletic, is likely to make a profit in today's game!
In other words, Paul Jewell, who led Wigan Athletic from the third tier of England to the Premier League and squeezed into the second camp of the Premier League, is not having a good time today!
Wigan Athletic has become the dark horse of the Premier League this season. Of course, Paul Jewell wants to become famous in one fell swoop, or to make himself more famous. The way to become famous is to allow Wigan Athletic to qualify for the European war next season. In that way, Paul - Jewell's reputation in English football will take a big step forward.

Because, there is a saying in English football that roughly means: After all the hardships, if you don't qualify for the European war, everything will be for naught!

For a small team like Wigan Athletic, if they win the European qualification, the sponsorship will immediately "roll in". Coupled with the expected TV broadcast share in the future, Wigan Athletic will be able to make a comeback.

At that time, no matter whether Paul Jewell continues to stay in Wigan to coach or go to another team, his personal status and treatment will all rise, because he is a player who once helped the small team win the championship. The magical coach of the European seat, he can even rise to the ranks of the Premier League's first-class coaches.

However, at this point in early March 2006, Paul Jewell suddenly realized that he really seemed to be trying to draw water from a bamboo basket!
Let’s talk about the league first. Since the Christmas match at the end of last year, Wigan Athletic seems to be out of luck. The magic of the past is completely gone. Not only the strong teams can win them, but the weak teams can also gnaw behind them. The next piece of meat, after the start of the league in January, Wigan Athletic's situation has not improved much. The total score is 1 win, 3 draws and 2 losses. It is very difficult to rely on the league ranking to qualify for the Europa League next season.

Besides, in the just-concluded League Cup, Wigan Athletic tried their best to reach the final, but in the end they were defeated by Arsenal. This allowed Wigan Athletic to gain a runner-up honor, and their actual benefits were zero!

In English football, the League Cup is born after the stepmother. Although both the Champions of the League Cup and the FA Cup will qualify for the Europa League next season, the specific treatment is different. For example, if the winner of the FA Cup has already won the Champions League Or Europa League qualification, the Europa League seat will be replaced by the runner-up, but this is not the case in the League Cup. When the League Cup champion obtains the Champions League or Europa League qualification in advance, the League Cup runner-up does not have the right to replace the champion to get the Europa League seat. This seat will be allocated to No.6 or No.7 of the league.

Therefore, even if the League Cup champion Arsenal almost 100% qualified for the European competition next season in advance, Wigan Athletic, the League Cup runner-up, will get nothing!
The hope of winning the League Cup was finally shattered, which made Paul Jewel very sad, but no matter how sad he was, he had to live on. His only hope now is to keep Wigan Athletic in the seventh position in the league and stop falling further. Judging from the situation in previous years, the League Cup is the game that is most likely to be upset by a small team, while the chance of being upset in the FA Cup is much smaller. If Wigan Athletic can finally get the seventh place in the league, he will surely Can get the Europa League seat, no matter how bad it is, if it ends up ranking eighth, there is still a UEFA Toto Cup to fight for.

Of course, if Wigan Athletic wants to keep their league ranking, the first hurdle is to hold on to Manchester United, and to hold on to Manchester United, the first step is to strangle Ronando's strong point...

"The referee Steven Bennett blew the whistle to start the game! The last game of the 28th round of the Premier League has begun!"

"Today's away game against Wigan Athletic is a young Red Devils team. The captain on the field is the little tank Wayne Rooney we are very familiar with. This player is just 20 years and 4 months old, but he is already an experienced Premier League player. Star. Wayne Rooney's partner on the right is the most amazing Portuguese teenager this season, Cristiano Ronaldo, who is only 18 years and 7 months old. They are also the former Manchester United coach Sir Alex Ferguson The two vice-captains appointed in December last year..."

Hush!Hush! !

When the commentator of the J** Stadium enthusiastically introduced Ronando, there were bursts of violent boos from the stands!
After all, they are league opponents. After all, it was Ronaldo who "scorned" Wigan Athletic a week ago. After all, Wigan coach Paul Jewell made a harsh speech against Ronaldo. Therefore, Wigan at the scene Not all fans have a good opinion of Ronando, they booed to express their dissatisfaction with Ronando.

It is not surprising that Wigan fans can accept Rooney and be proud of Rooney.

Rooney's home is in Croxteth, Liverpool, west of Wigan. In a large sense, Rooney is the pride of blue-collar workers in Northwest England. Although he is an Englishman, Rooney was born The family lived in a local Irish-born blue-collar worker's residential area, where all poor families lived, and the Rooney family lived in a small house rented from the city government like everyone else.

Wigan is a small town that prospered during the Industrial Revolution. Many people here have working-class blood in their bodies, so they regard Rooney as their hero.

The young Ronando also came from a poor background. His background is even countless times more pitiful than Rooney. It is for this reason that Manchester United fans are more able to accept Ronando as the team's vice-captain, and Wigan fans are not because of Rooney. Nando used to "contempt" Wigan Athletic, he held a grudge against him and cursed him, but it was inevitable to boo him.

At this time, Gerard Pique approached Ronando and said with a playful smile: "Oh! How dare they boo you, why don't you give your middle finger?"

"You bastard! I gave you the middle finger!" Feigning anger, Ronando quietly raised his middle finger to Pique, and said with a smile: "Don't run too far ahead, be careful of cutting in on the 22nd, and just give the 24th to me as much as possible Already!"

"Of order! That Connolly is handed over to Lao Tzu!" Peake put his index finger and middle finger together, touched his forehead quickly, and made a salute gesture that he didn't know where he learned it, but put his right hand down. Shi Shi poked Ronando with his right middle finger, then turned his head and ran back.

This guy Pique started today, and his spirit is outrageous!
Pique is one of Ronando's best brothers in the team. Although he is now the vice-captain of the first team, the friends still often fight together, and Ronando will not be against Pique. What kind of airs does a brother like Ke put on the captain's airs? He always feels that the prestige of the captain is not based on showing off. The most important thing is that when the team is in trouble, everyone can work hard behind him. There is nothing wrong with laughing and joking, but if Ronando gets serious, not to mention Pique, even the old players in the team must be obedient!
This is the rule that Ronando set for himself, and he will gradually make this attitude a rule for everyone in the first team!
Ronando already has absolute status and strength in Manchester United. His journey as Manchester United captain is on the schedule, and no one can stop him!
In other words, the handsome Spanish guy Pique is 190cm tall. It is reasonable to say that his best position is a central defender, but he was born in the La Masia training camp in Barcelona, ​​and his skills are not weak. Tough, his running ability is not bad, so it is completely qualified to let him play as a full-back.In addition, Pique can also play as a guest midfielder. With these characteristics combined, Pique is very likely to become Manchester United's new "backcourt all-around player", replacing the original Phil Neville and becoming a super substitute.

Today, Queiroz's arrangement is very coincidental. The super young combination of Ronando + Pique faced the left wing combination carefully arranged by Wigan Athletic coach Paul Jewell. What is the situation on their side? It is very likely to affect the overall balance of the two teams. Ronando and Pique instantly became the focus of the audience...
