David Winston continues to use the formation of the last game, but the starting lineup has been changed.

Goalkeeper Sebastian Frey, Nicky Shorey, Roberto Ayala, Luis Pereira and Luke Young at the back.The double defensive midfielders are still Miguel Arteta and Yaya Toure, one is more organized and the other is more defensive.The front midfielder was replaced by Marek Hamsik, the two wingers Franck Ribery and Fran Mikiel Smicer, and the striker Dirk Dirk.

The mobility of this lineup is better, the speed of transition from defense to offense is faster, and the defensive thickness of the midfield is also more stable, which will benefit the Southampton team whether they are leading or falling behind.

There is a sea of ​​red and white in the St. Mary's Stadium. Compared with the previous St. Mary's service under Rupert Lowe's chairman, the fans prefer the service of this group of Chinese from the ancient East.

Free sandwiches and drinks.Free scarves and jersey cheers, which gave the Saints fans who spent a lot of pounds to watch the game a certain amount of psychological comfort. These small actions made the Saints fans feel very warm, which proves that the team management Always remembering the fans, knowing how important the fans are to them.

Of course, today the Chinese management in the hearts of the fans gathered in the newly improved boxes, preparing to watch the first show of the new season at St. Mary's Stadium.

Yuehun, Alice, Lin Seshu.Lin Qinling sat on a comfortable sofa, surrounded by two waiters who continued to provide services for them, very comfortable.

"Hey, Uncle Se, let's make a bet, guess if David Winston will send Alan Shearer to play today!" Yue Hun said lazily, slumped comfortably on the sofa.

Lin Seshu thought for a while and said, "I think it should be, after all, it's the first game, so I should give the fans an explanation!"

"Okay, then I guess not!" Yue Hun said cheerfully, as if the victory already belonged to him.But the expression of Alice beside him was very complicated, with mixed feelings.Lin Qinling looked at her quietly.

Of course, David Winston couldn't hear their conversation from above. He still watched every move on the field with frowning, even though the game hadn't started yet.After the start of the new season, David Winston was very nervous about every game of this season because he thought too much and had the desired performance goals. He watched the video very late every day. Hard work and happiness coexisted. .

With the countdown sound of all Saints fans, the game officially started.

The Portsmouth team has obviously not recovered from the defeat in the last game. They played without fighting spirit on the field. The players did not actively fight or run, and all stood and watched the game lazily.Such a situation is obviously not even realized by David Winston.

Sometimes happiness comes so unexpectedly and so quickly.

David Winston's tactical intentions are also well reflected.

Dirk - Dirk from the opening after the endless harassment of Portsmouth's two central defenders.This frantic harassment and pressing paid off the most in the 10th minute of the game.

Portsmouth's central defender Stefanovic had to pass back to goalkeeper Westerveld under the pressure of Dirk Dirk. It is not known whether it is a mentality problem or a purely technical problem.The two did not communicate well with the return pass, which resulted in Stefanovic's return pass being weak, and the goalkeeper Westerveld did not intend to attack and take the ball away, which gave Dirk- A chance for Dirk to drop in the sky, of course, he will not miss such an opportunity.

Dirk Kurit ran towards the passing lane the moment Stefanovic passed the ball, and when the ball rolled almost slowly on the lawn, Dirk Kurit had regained control For the ball, it was too late when Westerveld wanted to call his teammates. He watched the ball go straight to the net, but he was powerless.Despite the tsunami-like shouts of the audience, they scraped wantonly from my ears, stimulating the sensitive nerves of the Portsmouth players and coaches.

After scoring a goal, he did not choose to celebrate, which was in stark contrast to Hierro's crazy celebration next to him.David Winston had already expected the moment when he would score a goal. While recording something in the notebook in his hand, he walked to his seat and sat there calmly, watching everything in the stadium calmly.

The rest of the game completely became a training match for Southampton. In the first half of the game, Dirk Kurit completed a hat-trick. He also became the first player in the history of Southampton. A player who has scored a hat-trick in one game for his team.These three goals slapped David Winston in the face, because before his concept of Dirk Kurit was a representative of a defensive forward, but now he has become a general who charges forward .Of course, David Winston likes this kind of slap in the face, and he hopes that the whole team can score goals is the best.
