Chapter 268 Benitez's Last Stand (31100)

"You are playing with fire and trying to catch fish! Even if you beat me in this game, then in the next game, the next game, your main players will also be injured due to excessive physical exertion! When the time comes, your Manchester City will probably fall behind." Shaking hands after the game, Ferguson commented on Duncan's "irrational" behavior.

"But in the end I still won, and I'm still ahead in the standings, aren't you old man?" Duncan just laughed.

Ferguson shook his head. He didn't want to persuade Duncan when he said this.Duncan insisted on depleting the physical reserves of the players, so let him do it.

Anyway, everyone is an opponent.

It's just that Ferguson was a little disappointed. Originally, he still regarded Duncan as a strong opponent. In his eyes, Duncan's position was even higher than that of Benitez and Scolari.

However, Duncan's attitude of disregarding the dense schedule for the victory of a game at a critical moment still disappointed Ferguson.

Ferguson actually has his own guesses about Duncan's insistence on using the main lineup.

The biggest possibility is that Duncan wants to continue his winning streak against Manchester United too much.

Prior to this, he faced Manchester United and had won four consecutive victories.

Ferguson guessed that Duncan must especially want to continue his winning streak against Manchester United.

Indeed, in this game, Manchester City extended their record against Manchester United to five consecutive victories.

But so what?

Players have wasted too much energy in this game, what should they do in the next game?

Ferguson only felt that the rapid collapse of Manchester City was already within sight.

……

In the Manchester City club's physiotherapy room, Duncan met Paganini, the club's chief physical trainer.

"Oh my God, it's unbelievable." Paganini, a senior physical trainer, glanced at the report in his hand, and said in an unbelievable tone: "How is it possible? The physical recovery speed of the players is too strong! And especially a few The physical fitness of the young players was fully recovered overnight, and it was not obvious that they had played a game the night before."

"Okay, okay, calm down, Pieri." Duncan looked at the famous physical trainer who is well-known in the domestic and foreign sports circles, knocked on the table, and said, "Don't patronize and marvel, show me, tomorrow's game, who His stamina and state have returned to fullness. Who needs rest?"

Duncan looked at the stern-looking physical trainer wearing glasses, and was actually a little funny in his heart.

This guy was invited through a personal relationship. At the beginning, facing the high salary of the Manchester City club, this guy was a little overbearing.But the addition of Pedro Chuai later surprised Paganini.

Later, Zhu Kennong, a traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation physiotherapist, took the initiative to reduce Hargreaves' recovery period from the injury by a full month, which made Paganini speechless.

Then, the physical recovery of the Manchester City players at the speed of light made Paganini think that he had entered a superman training camp.

Especially Manchester City's opponent in the last game was still a team of Manchester United's level.

"It's unbelievable." The city mansion, which has been cultivated for many years, did not let Paganini hold it.

"Their physical recovery speed is so strong!" Paganini praised.

"Mr. Pieri?" Duncan could only remind Paganini again.

"Uh, Mr. Duncan, you want to ask about the physical condition of the players in our team?" Realizing his gaffe, Paganini quickly calmed down and said.

"Most of the players are fine." Paganini glanced at the report in his hand again, and said: "Their physical condition has fully recovered, and their physical condition is also very optimistic. Not only for the Liverpool game, you can send all The main team, even the next game and Manchester United's Carabao Cup final, you can also send the whole main team."

"Most of them are fine?" Duncan heard what Paganini meant, and asked, "Is there still a problem with consciousness?"

It stands to reason that in Duncan's team, everyone is affected by the Juling Formation.Now even the 32-year-old Shevchenko can fully recover. Is there anyone else in the team whose physical recovery is worse than him?
"It's Trabelsi." Paganini made an expression that "men can understand", and said: "Look at the report, this guy has been a bit indulgent in his sexual affairs these days..."

Duncan raised his forehead.

This strange guy, it seems that he is really a dragon and a tiger.

He ran up and down against Manchester United for nine and 10 minutes, and he was still able to survive the night.

Duncan squeezed his chin, and said viciously: "Since this guy is so energetic, it seems that the two days of training should be given to this kid!"

Then the next day, Trabelsi found out sadly that he had added a considerable amount of strength training to his training plan.

"This is a small recipe that Mr. Paganini gave you, so that you can practice your strength in confrontation. Needless to say, thank you, train well." Duncan patted Trabelsi, who was sweating profusely, hum He left with a little song.

……

Benitez has had a hard time recently. Compared with other teams, Liverpool values ​​the league championship more.So Benitez has put in all his energy this season and wants to take the lead in the league.

And Liverpool's lineup is also the most luxurious lineup in 20 years.

Therefore, in order to compete for the championship, Benitez did everything possible. Not only did he work hard on tactics, he even launched a war of words in the media that he was not good at.

The object is Duncan.

But every time Duncan made surprises, it made Benitez mess up.

Every time Benitez fires, the person who gets bombed the most is often himself.

Before the winter break, Benitez was still very tight with Manchester City, but his nonsense sometimes had an impact on his team.

Liverpool's record in January and February was not good, and they were immediately thrown off by Manchester City.

When Benitez reacted and wanted to lead the team to catch up, Manchester United stepped on their heads and rushed over.

Liverpool's ranking has fallen to No.3.

The point gap with Manchester City has also widened to 10 points.

There are 12 rounds left in the league, but Benitez does not want to give up.

So this encounter with Manchester City is the last straw in Benitez's mind.

With the victory, the points gap has narrowed to 7 points, and Liverpool's morale, which was somewhat depressed, will also be greatly improved.

fail……

Benitez did not dare to think about the consequences.

Therefore, in order to win this game, Benitez deliberately let the main players get enough rest and ensure sufficient physical strength.

... In fact, there is no way to not rest. Liverpool has been eliminated in the League Cup and the FA Cup.

In any case, Benitez's idea was that Manchester City had already fought Manchester United in the FA Cup.They either send out the main force with residual blood, or send out half-blood substitutes.

What they have to face is all the main players of Liverpool waiting for work!
