Chapter 54 The Eve of the Great War
Chapter 53 The Eve of the Great War

"Wow..."

All the FC United players who entered the away dressing room let out an exclamation.But it wasn't because of the luxury of the dressing room—on the contrary, the contrast between the small room that caught their eyes and the majestic Old Trafford they had imagined was too great.

This dressing room has only two areas, the hall and the shower room, and it is very small, it feels smaller than FC United's home dressing room.And it is lower than ordinary houses, giving people a very depressing feeling.

There is only a row of clothes hooks on the bare walls around the hall, and a row of stools under the clothes hooks. It looks shorter than normal stools. It is estimated that all the players have to bend their feet. Under the stools is a Row of cabinets.There was an old massage chair in the middle, but nothing else.

The players looked at the shabby locker room of the visiting team and looked at each other.This is completely different from the rich dressing room they imagined. Before that, they were ready to take a few photos in Manchester United's dressing room and post them on Facebook.

"Surprised, lads? Let me tell you, the dressing rooms of all Premier League teams are not as good as you think!"

Markinson's laughter came from behind them, and members of the coaching staff also walked into the locker room, and the narrow space suddenly seemed a little crowded.

He beckoned, "Sit down, it's too crowded to stand. The room is full of people dangling around, making me dizzy."

So the stunned FC United players sat under the hooks with their own jerseys.

"Because this can create pressure and trouble for the visiting team and make them feel uncomfortable. Maybe you suddenly run out of hot water when you take a shower. I'm not exaggerating at all, hahahaha" Ma Jinson laughed to himself Get up, and the players who have heard of these tricks for the first time look like they have seen the world.

"Do you see where the tactical board in the locker room is?" Majinson put away his exaggerated smile.

The players glanced left and right, and the tactical board in the locker room was actually on the wall next to the door.

"Do you know why the tactical board is installed here?" Without waiting for the players to answer, Ma Jinson continued: "Because it is installed at the door, when you are arranging tactics, it is easy to be beaten by people coming and going. break."

It was an eye-opener for a group of amateur players. They really didn't expect that in order to interfere with the visiting team, the locker room would be so particular.

"Remember what I said the last time I played Liverpool? Players step on the pitch, they are born to win. See that, that's how Manchester United treat their opponents! Guys, we're here to play For the game, Manchester United is our opponent in this game, not the glamorous super giants you see on TV! Put away your curiosity, change my clothes now, and prepare to warm up!!"

Wait until the players have changed their clothes and went out to warm up.Makinson turned around and asked his assistant Roy: "Has Manchester United's starting lineup for this game come out?"

Roy took out a piece of A4 paper from his handbag and handed it over: "It's out, today's game is not easy to play."

Ma Jinson took it over and took a look, and it printed the list of Manchester United's games.

The starting players include goalkeeper De Gea, the back line has right back Rafael, center back Smalling, Jones, right back Evra; midfielders include Nani, Anderson, Carrick, Kagawa Shinji, striker Online Rooney partner Pea Hernandez.

This is a semi-main lineup!

Ma Jinson scratched his head, the opponent paid more attention to this game than he imagined.

It seems that Manchester United will not take this "quasi derby" game lightly, not to mention that the opponent eliminated by FC United in the last round was Liverpool!
The commentator shot by Sky Sports for this game is still Andy Gray, with Gary Neville and Redknapp sitting in the guest seats.

"What do you two think about the lineup sent by Coach Ferguson?" Andy Gray, who had just finished reading the starting lists of both sides, put down the information in his hand.

"I think Coach Ferguson is a little too cautious!" Redknapp said first, "It is true that FC United eliminated Liverpool in the last round, but until now I still think that this is not because of the strength of FC United. Strong, this is just an accidental game. FC United scored two goals in three attempts in the whole game. Scoring more goals, Liverpool have paid for their luck and underestimation."

"What's more, this is Manchester United's home ground, FC United don't have many chances."

"I don't think so!" Gary Neville retorted, "It may be an accident that FC United beat Liverpool, but there is also a certainty in the accident. First of all, their defense is well organized and they have not lost positions in key areas. And they have very good physical fitness, and they can still keep up with the rhythm when Liverpool are attacking for 10 and [-] minutes. For an amateur team, such a physical reserve is really invaluable!"

"And what I want to focus on is that their striker, the young Chinese student, his ability is really not like an amateur player. He got stuck in the position before the opponent several times. At least he didn’t lose to Carragher! Even though Carragher is very old.” Gary Neville teased his old opponent, and then said: “And his two headers show that his header skills are also very good. Yes, the most important thing is that his body is too strong, strong body, not very slow speed, full of physical fitness, good header skills, and accurate judgment of placement. I think such a center forward will have a lot of goals The team wanted him."

Just as Neville and Redknapp were facing each other in the live studio in the UK, in China, Zhang Jun also got the roster for the game at this time.

This time the game has attracted more attention than the last time, and even the sports channels in some places will broadcast this game.And this time the anchor also arranged for him to be a guest commentator as a partner-former international player Li Tie.

Li Tie also played in England that year, played for Everton, and also participated in the FA Cup.

"Director Li, tell me your opinion on this game." Zhang Jun asked.

"First of all, let's do a good job of defense. I'm talking about FC United and Manchester. I watched their last game against Liverpool. Li Qingshan is really a good player. Although he is a center forward, he He was also very good in defending the high ball. I think a lot of clubs must have come to him after that game."

"Haha, this may be a happy trouble for him. Does director Li think that Li Qingshan's current ability can adapt to the professional arena?" As a broadcasting unit in China, of course the most concerned are the players in his own country.

"Of course, I don't think Li Qingshan's performance in the last game was accidental. I checked again before I came today. The latest statistics show that Li Qingshan has scored [-] goals in the seventh league! This goal The efficiency of the ball is really terrifying. You must know that many players who played from the English amateur league to the professional league are far inferior to such a goal efficiency! This at least shows that he is unrivaled in the amateur arena And this means that he has the ability to play in professional leagues." Li Tie has played in England and has a considerable understanding of England's league system.

At this time, the FC United players who had finished warming up walked back to the crowded dressing room one after another.

While everyone changed into dry game clothes, Ma Jinson emphasized the tactical deployment they had said countless times.

stick to...
Wait for the counterattack! ! !

After hearing the sound of the referee outside the door announcing their appearance, everyone walked out of the locker room one by one under the leadership of captain Dean Stott.

This time they have experience, they no longer shake their heads and look around, but look straight ahead with serious expressions.

We are no rookies, Manchester United, wait! !
