Legendary godfather of green grass

Carrington Training Base, Manchester, England.

Moyes sat in front of the big screen in the tactical analysis room, staring at the big screen in front of him with piercing eyes, his brows tightened.

All the videos of Crystal Palace games from this season are being played on it.

These videos are excerpted by Moyes' coaching staff and data analysts, some very clear clips of Crystal Palace's technical and tactical play, allowing people to see the technical and tactical characteristics of Crystal Palace at a glance.

Moyes looked very seriously.

And this is not the first time Moyes has watched the tape.

Almost every time he looked, he was able to see something new.

The more I look at him, the more I feel that Tong Yi is not an easy guy.

Moyes asked the assistants around him, and asked, "After reading so much, what do you think of Tong Yi?"

Langde and the others looked at each other, and then Langde said seriously: "Obviously, this young Chinese is more mature, and his tactics are not just a simple high-position press, his skills and tactics are even more advanced." Rich. And they are flexible to use. When facing Tottenham Hotspur, they are more defensive and counterattack, and there are very few high-position press..."

Woods and Lunsden nodded slightly, and their expressions were very serious.

Lunstein added: "And Lukaku's arrival has enriched Crystal Palace's tactics. Although Lukaku is young, he is much better than last season's Crystal Palace striker Glenn Murray. With him, Crystal Palace The attack power is stronger, and we have to guard against it."

Moyes nodded slightly, indeed.

To be honest, he used to be optimistic about Lukaku.If he hadn't left Everton, he should have loaned Lukaku to Everton, and it was simply not the turn of Crystal Palace.

Moyes looked at the big screen again, nodded slightly, and said: "Crystal Palace in the new season is indeed much stronger than before. The most important thing is that Tong Yi is more mature and powerful than before, and it is difficult to deal with."

Obviously, Moyes and the others didn't believe what the media reporters said before.

They can all see that Tong Yi and Crystal Palace are great, but they dare not underestimate Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace is currently the top team in the Premier League.

More importantly, they can see the strength of Crystal Palace and Tong Yi's ability from these games and Crystal Palace's skills and tactics.

Crystal Palace and Tong Yi are not easy!

Moyes takes it very seriously.

Suddenly, Moyes asked again with a red drill: "Do you think Crystal Palace will send Laporte to start this game?"

To be honest, Laporte is in very good form recently and his performance is also very good.No wonder so many media reporters and fans are supporting Laporte?They all felt that Crystal Palace should replace Van Dijk with Laporte. Van Dijk is not worthy of being the main force of the team.

I really don't know why Tong Yi is so optimistic about Van Dijk?

Rand groaned slightly, but did not speak.On the contrary, Lunsden said: "I think it should be impossible. Tong Yi, a Chinese person, is very assertive and difficult to be influenced by outsiders. I think no matter how noisy these media reporters and fans are, Tong Yi will No changes will be made.”

Woods also echoed: "Yes, I think so too."

Moyes felt that it made sense when he heard the words. Tong Yi, a Chinese soft-fan guy, was indeed quite stubborn.

Van Dijk made so many mistakes last season, isn't Tong Yi still going his own way and continuing to reuse Van Dijk?Under such circumstances, Van Dijk was not allowed to end, how could it be possible to replace Van Dijk now?

Moyes immediately nodded and said: "Then we can focus on attacking Van Dijk's defense in this game, what do you think?"

Rand immediately said: "I think it's feasible. Van Dijk is still too young, and his ability is not outstanding."

Lunsden immediately nodded in agreement.

The corner of Moyes' mouth rose slightly, and he continued: "Also, Crystal Palace's defense in the middle of the midfield is very strong in interception and oppression. We must avoid confronting them head-on. However, their defense on the two wings is relatively weak. , especially the defense on the left flank."

Rand immediately brought a tactical board and handed it to Moyes.

After Moyes took over, he continued: "Whether Robertson or Alonso starts on the left side of Crystal Palace, this is their weakness."

Rand and the others stared closely at Moyes.

Moyes continued: "Compared to Alonso, Robertson's defensive ability is stronger. But Robertson is too young, not very experienced, and his body is relatively weak. He is definitely a weakness of Crystal Palace. But, what about Alonso? He is a player who is obviously stronger in offense than defense. After starting, Crystal Palace's defense on the left side will be relatively weak. This is our opportunity!"

Lang De and others have seen the data collected by the tactical analysis room.

There is a comparison of the strengths of Alonso and Robertson, as well as some intercepted game videos. It is very intuitive to see the characteristics of these two players and the differences between them.

After careful reading, they all felt that Moyes was very right.

These two have their own advantages and disadvantages, but overall for their Manchester United team, they are both weaknesses in the Crystal Palace defense line, which their Manchester United team must take advantage of.

Moyes continued: "As for the Huaxia man on their right, this guy is really good, with a balanced offense and defense, and very good physical fitness... Seriously, he shouldn't appear in Crystal Palace. If he comes to us What a great Manchester United team!"

Yes, Moyes is a little envious of Tong Yi, he has his eyes on Zhang Linpeng.

But now, the Manchester United team is really lacking in the position of full-back. He believes that Zhang Linpeng is capable of playing the main position in the Manchester United team.

Langde also said: "This Chinese man is really good, and he is not the same as Manchester City's previous Chinese Sun. This Chinese man is more physically fit and more focused on defense."

Lunsden also said: "When we transfer in the winter, should we bring him to our Manchester United team? I believe that Manchester United's attractiveness is still very useful. Players on this planet who can reject Manchester United... no many!"

Moyes pondered for a while, as if thinking about the possibility in Lunsden's words.

After a long while, he said: "Yes! You can go to work and see if it is possible to bring this guy to our Manchester United team."

Lunsden immediately said: "Okay, leave it to me!"

Then, Moyes continued to talk to his assistants about Crystal Palace's tactical issues, looking for Crystal Palace's lineup and tactical loopholes, and then crazily targeting opponents, they will be able to win Crystal Palace.

Soon, they worked out a plan.

In this game against Crystal Palace, Manchester United focused on the left side of Crystal Palace and Van Dijk.They believe that this is the loophole of Crystal Palace and must be attacked.

And they also want to avoid head-on conflicts with the Crystal Palace midfielder.

Crystal Palace's frontal defensive interception and sweeping capabilities in the midfield are very strong. It is difficult for Manchester United to break through Crystal Palace's frontal defense in the middle of the midfield.

The three guys Paulinho, Kanter and Pogba are in the midfield, and their ability to intercept and press is very strong.

Therefore, the current Manchester United still has to fly on both wings.

Professor Ferguson's tactics are retained.

After formulating the strategy, Moyes then brought these into training, and asked the Manchester United players to focus on training these tactics to prepare for the game against Crystal Palace.

And in the usual training, Moyes will also instill his own requirements and opinions into the Manchester United players in detail, so that they can prepare seriously and adapt to these small tactical adjustments as soon as possible.And it will also let the players simulate the defensive positions of the Crystal Palace, etc., so that the Manchester United players can better complete the training.

Seriously, Moyes is really, really involved.

After seeing the training of Manchester United players, Moyes himself is full of expectations for this game.

To be honest, he thinks that their Manchester United team has a very good chance of winning.

And in the usual training, he also told the Manchester United players these views and opinions.He said: "As long as you can maintain this state during the game and completely follow our tactics, our Manchester United team will win this game!"

To be honest, some players in the Manchester United team don't trust Moyes.

They don't think Moyes is so good.

They have doubts about Moyes' coaching ability, so during training, they did have a lot of doubts, and some people were even very dissatisfied.

These subtle adjustments to tactics have affected the interests of many players.

This slight adjustment will allow some players to run more distance, and it will also make some people less important in the game, etc.More importantly, they don't think Moyes can lead Manchester United well.

However, at this time they still followed Moyes' request.

After all, Moyes is the successor appointed by Ferguson himself, and the Manchester United players still have to give Ferguson this bit of face.But if Moyes' recent coaching performance is not good, their emotions will definitely explode later.At that time, it will be more difficult for Moyes to control the team's locker room.

Moreover, at this time, whoever takes over Manchester United will be frequently compared with Sir Alex Ferguson by reporters, fans and players.Especially the players, their feelings are more direct and intuitive.That's why they feel that Moyes is not good at all.

Moyes is too far away from Sir Alex Ferguson.

They think that Moyes's set is not good at all, and they think that Moyes is just messing around.

Therefore, in fact, since Moyes came to Manchester United, the internal problems of Manchester United have already emerged.

To be honest, it is very difficult for Moyes to succeed in coaching Manchester United.

However, at this time, Moyes did not consider these, he was full of confidence, he firmly believed that he could do it.

At this time, he was very involved, leading the Manchester United players to actively prepare.

He firmly believes that in this game, their Manchester United team can defeat Crystal Palace and win the game.

The members of Moyes' coaching staff are also very motivated. They also believe that they can gain a firm foothold in the Manchester United team, and then take root in the Manchester United team like Alex Ferguson, and will become a part of the legend of the Manchester United team in the future. .

Looking at these players who are actively engaged in training, they are full of confidence in the upcoming game.

They must be able to beat Crystal Palace.
