Football: Reject the national football team, I will join the German national team

After finishing the League Cup journey, the team got three days of rest.

Ye Chen had enough rest this time.

But Ye Chen discovered a characteristic.

That is, once Manchester United loses or draws, the media news will be overwhelming.

But there is very little news about Manchester United winning.

Sometimes Ye Chen even wonders whether the media is controlled by some organization.

Of course, Ye Chen didn't sit still and wait for death.

He arranged for Lina to secretly acquire several well-known European sports news media.

Specially posted news about Manchester United and its players.

In modern times, football has a reputation for public opinion war.

For example, Haaland's triple crown is still not as good as Messi's hip-stretching performance in the league——

This is the power of media.

Moreover, in the eyes of capitalists, the essence of football is not a competition, but a business.

They will praise anyone who is obedient.

This makes it understandable why Ronaldo has so many negative fans.

This guy has always been independent and very difficult to control.

With TIK-TOK secretly helping, it is not difficult to have the right to speak.

After entering December, there are a total of eight games.

After the League Cup journey, Manchester United embarked on an away journey to Liverpool.

There are two teams in Liverpool, one is Liverpool and the other is Everton.

After thirteen rounds of games, Everton ranked 7th in the league, with 5 wins, 4 draws, 4 losses, 16 goals, 15 goals conceded, and a goal difference of 1!

Focusing on a balance of offense and defense.

However, the focus of this round is Chelsea's away game against Manchester City.

Conte leads the team to Manchester.

After trailing 1-0 to Guardiola's team in the first half, they pulled back three in the second half - cleanly handing Manchester City their second defeat.

After the game, Guardiola had a sad face, "It's too early to talk about competing for the championship, we need further investment!"

This time Guardiola has his sights set on Brazil's 19-year-old talented forward Jesus!

The two sides are already discussing transfer matters, and also recall Jovetic, Rulli and Sukulini...

Guardiola was a little confused in his first season in the Premier League.

Especially when Manchester United next door puts great pressure on him.

However, their boss is still very supportive of him and gave him a transfer budget of 5000 million yuan.

You must know that generally speaking, winter transfer fees are small and there are few large transfers.

After all, this is a critical moment in the championship.

Tottenham swept Swansea 5-0 and were in excellent form.

The team's coach Pochettino expressed his expectations for Manchester United in the post-match press conference, and also mentioned the "Asian Derby".

With the rapid growth of Son Heung-min over the years, he has become Tottenham's football star second only to Harry Kane.

But even so, his status in the team is not very high.

Lori often pointed at him in front of everyone...

In the away game against Everton, Mourinho made a certain degree of rotation.

There is no way, the match against Tottenham is also mixed with a direct contest against Paris.

This is related to the question of who can qualify first in Group A!

Now the first is Manchester United, the second is Borussia Monchengladbach, and the third is Paris Saint-Germain.

If Paris wants to advance, they must beat Manchester United at home.

And when Manchester United lost, Borussia also won, then Manchester United will go to the Europa League!

So the last round is the most critical contest!

Of course, many fans have already asked for leave and are waiting for the game to officially start!

But Manchester United fans are a little worried.

They can feel that Manchester United does not seem to be as strong as at the beginning of the season.

At the beginning of the season, it can be said that God will kill God if he blocks it, and Buddha will kill Buddha if he blocks it.

But everything was pressed on the pause button after Chelsea 4-2.

There are reasons for everyone to learn Chelsea's style of play, and there are also reasons for the team's frequent injuries.

Smalling still holds the exemption card.

What can I say about the partnership between Maguire and Jones? There is no tacit understanding...

And Jones' defense is really a bit reckless.

Often likes to gamble on defense.

Once out of position, the opposing forward can directly face the goalkeeper.

Maguire also got valuable rest time in this game, so the central defender combination was Rojo partnering Jones.

Left back Blind, right back Damian...

When attacking, Blind has to rush forward, and Damian becomes a full-back.

This defensive routine was a suggestion given by Ye Chen after attending a tactical meeting.

In the German national team, when Kimmich attacks, the three central defenders become a three-back system.

But now Manchester United has the conditions to play three defenders.

Moreover, when Damian was at Inter Milan in his later years, he played as a right center back or defensive full-back.

His offense is indeed not good, but his defense is really good.

After all, he has the pedigree of great Italian full-backs.

But in this case, the offensive pressure will be placed on the players in the frontcourt...

Manchester United struggled in this game.

Everton was not a weakling during this period, and being ranked in the upper reaches of the Premier League explains everything.

After Ye Chen helped Manchester United take the lead, the team consciously retracted the defense line.

Want to hit Everton's counterattack.

But Everton always had enough players in the backcourt to not give Manchester United the slightest chance.

Of course, 1-0 may not be safe for other coaches.

But it was enough for Mourinho.

He started to change the midfielder to play defense.

In the 85th minute, Fellaini replaced today's attacking midfielder Rooney.

Fellaini was indeed very active after coming on the field, heading the ball one after another to clear the ball.

But in the 89th minute, when Fellaini was fighting for the top of the penalty area, his arm directly hugged the neck of substitute Enna Valencia.

This Valencia and Manchester United's Valencia are both from Ecuador.

And Ye Chen was still very impressed by him.

In the opening game of the 2022 Qatar World Cup, it was this veteran's brace that helped the team defeat Qatar 2-0, directly shattering the host country's unbeaten rule in the first game.

Of course, it was not Enna Valencia who took the penalty kick, but Everton's legendary captain Baines.

Baynes is the team's leading penalty kick scorer, with a shooting percentage close to 100%!

Currently, only one of the 16 has been lost.

The only one he missed was a penalty missed at Old Trafford in an away game against Manchester United in October 2014.

When Baynes stood at the penalty spot, the fans at the scene held their breath...

He will face De Gea again!

"Beep!"

As the referee blows the whistle.

Baynes started quickly and volleyed directly into the lower right corner.

De Gea rushed out like a rabbit in front of the goal...

"Shh!"

When the football scored, the entire Goodison Park stadium fell into a carnival.

Ronald Koeman, who was on the sidelines, even slid to his knees in excitement to celebrate.

His excitement was in sharp contrast to Mourinho's silence.

Ye Chen, who was substituted and sat on the bench, also shook his head silently.

I thought Mourinho's 1-0 score would last until the end.

But in the face of Fellaini's foul, everything came to nothing...

Of course, Mourinho's substitutions after the game were once again criticized by the media.

First, McTominay delivered a well-positioned set piece at a critical moment, and then Fellaini delivered a point in the last minute of regular time.

A chance that ruined the team's chance to secure top spot in the Champions League group stage.

The other is to allow the team to lose two more points.

If they fail to win the league title at the end of the season because of these two points, neither Mourinho nor Fellaini will reap the rewards!

This draw also made the top-ranked Manchester United become precarious again!

However, in the face of doubts, Ye Chen, who attended the post-match press conference, asked Mourinho's classic words, "Just look at whether Manchester United is top of the Premier League!"

As soon as these words came out, all the reporters who were looking for trouble fell silent.

Mourinho, who was originally serious, finally laughed.

As a human being, don’t bother yourself!

No team can win all the time, losses and draws are very reasonable.

Just like the college entrance examination, after passing one subject, you will drop another subject.

If you keep worrying about your poor performance in the previous exam, you may do even worse in the next exam!

So now their top priority is to prepare for the away game against Paris.

You must know that Paris fans have been very arrogant recently. They are already clamoring to defeat Manchester United and let them return to the Europa League!
