At the start, Mane and Salah flew on both wings

The match against Swansea has attracted the attention of many fans. Notts County, who comes from League One, will play against Swansea, which currently has 7 wins in 8 games.

The two teams have many similarities. As the oldest football club in the world, Notts County has never won the championship of England's top league. The most important championship is the FA Cup. In addition, Zhou Xu won League Cup trophy.

As for Swansea, this is a football club from Wales. Although it was once the dominant team in the Welsh League, it has never won a heavyweight championship trophy after joining the English football system.

At the tactical level, both teams use offensive tactics. Swansea head coach Ralph’s high-pressure tactical formation is 4231. The two midfielders can protect the back line well, but the midfielder’s strangulation ability is relatively poor. 433 seems a bit inadequate.

In a pre-match interview, Swansea head coach Ralph said that Zhou Xu's tactics were a backcourt move, while his own tactics were the real offense.

Of course Zhou Xu had to respond to this,"The truth will be revealed in the game. The results of the game will prove that Ralph is just talking big words."

For this game, Zhou Xu's starting list, the starting goalkeeper is still Alisson.

Defense line Robertson, Stones, Maguire and Niemann.

The midfield trio Wang Chu started to replace the injured Pogba, Fred singled as a defensive midfielder, and Verratti partnered with Wang Chu.

The front trident is B Febenteke and Salah.

Notts County's injury situation in this game. Although Kanter wanted to play in this focus game, according to the team doctor, Zhou Xu still did not let him be included in the match list.

Vardy, Van Dijk, Pogba, Mane and Cancelo are also injured.

The situation in Swansea is not as serious as Notts County.

Shane Lavery, who was sent off in the last game, is suspended for this game.

David McGoldrick and Nicolas Pepe were injured, but they were not serious injuries. It is not sure whether coach Ralph will send them out in this game.

David McGoldrick is a Notts County youth player and has been selected for the Ireland national team. McGoldrick is an amazing player. He can play as a central defender or as a forward. His ability is not outstanding, he is very good technically and has good speed. As a substitute player, he is like a brick, moving wherever he needs to be, whether he is a full-back, a winger, a midfielder or even an attacking midfielder.

Zhou Xu is very familiar with Nicolas Pepe. He once joined Arsenal for a transfer fee that broke the history of the Arsenal team, but was called a parallel import. Swansea's scouts also seemed to be time travellers. Swansea signed him from the French Amateur League for only 52,000 euros. Pepe is currently playing well, with 1 goal and 1 assist in 4 league games. Obviously, he has a promising future.

By plane, Zhou Xu and the players arrived at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea, Wales, where the Swans and Magpies will play against each other.

Swansea's starting lineup is still a 4231 tactical formation.

The starting goalkeeper is Amir. He is 1.86 meters tall and has good reflexes. He has 5 clean sheets in 8 league games. The disadvantage is that his ability to play the ball is slightly insufficient and he is not an Onana-type goalkeeper.

The left back is Kaduli, the Moroccan international. At the age of 34, his body has declined severely, but as a defensive full-back, his speed is still acceptable, and he can still defend the impact of wingers very well in the British Championship.

Right back Rickards has good physical fitness and fast speed, but his skills are rough and he has a promising future.

In the central defender combination, Williams is on the left. The Welsh international has outstanding defensive ability and a strong header threat. At the same time, he is physically strong and can restrict the opponent's forward players very well. The disadvantage is that Williams has no ability to hit the ball.

His partner is Greg, who is the outlet of Swansea's backcourt. His defense is not as good as Williams, but his offensive ability is far superior to Williams. The 30-year-old Greg was a right winger when he was young, but now he has been transformed into a central defender.

In the double midfielder position, the one on the left is Bostock. This is a relatively versatile midfielder with good speed, good defensive ability, and good ball play, but he is not top-notch.

The right midfielder Sidibe can not only play as a midfielder, but also as a forward. At 1.98 meters tall, he is a great threat in the air, has full mental attributes, and has a leadership temperament. He has good ball-playing ability, but his body has declined severely and he has no speed at all.

In this game, head coach Ralf let Rodri rest. Since Swansea signed Rodri on loan, he has not missed any game.

In the attacking midfielder position, Congreve, who was trained by Swansea Youth Academy, started the game. He has no characteristics and has a bright future.

The left winger is Malvin from Sierra Leone. He debuted at Fulham and now plays for Swansea City. Malvin is a typical speed dog. He has nothing but speed, but he is famous all over the world with his speed. He played as a substitute this season and had a key winning goal, helping Swansea gain 3 points in a league game.

Esse, a right winger, has good speed and good skills. His conversion between off-ball and on-ball is excellent. He is considered a well-known genius player in the British Championship.

The starting forward is Ivan Klashnic. This Croatian international is now old. After many years of training in the Bundesliga, Klashnic has some qualities of a German striker. He is good at seizing opportunities in front of the goal and often appears in the most appropriate moments. The location where it appears. Klashnic possesses the delicate footwork unique to Eastern European players, and dribbling is also his fatal weapon that makes his opponents fearful.

As a forward player, Klashnic not only has accurate shooting skills, but creating opportunities for his teammates is also one of his strengths. In the league, Klashnic's number of assists every season is not inferior to that of midfielders. When the team has a chance to counterattack, Klashnic always acts as an arrow figure, and his excellent speed advantage is one of his means of attack.

In the visiting team's locker room, Zhou Xu looked around at his players.

"The opponent's most threatening player is Krashnich, even though he is 32 years old. Maguire, you and Stones must keep a close eye on him and foul him hard when necessary, otherwise he will pose a great threat to us.

The two wingers are very fast, which can force them to use their non-dominant feet more often, and the threats on both sides will be reduced accordingly. In the midfield, Swansea is too arrogant. Rodri, the core of the midfield, did not play, and their control over the midfield will decline a lot.

The two full-backs on the wing are very tired, especially the left-back Kaduli. Salah, play to your strengths and pass him. He has started 5 games in a row and played all of them. Now he is very tired and the defensive intensity has been greatly reduced.

Finally, if we win this game, we will gain the initiative to compete for the top spot in the Championship. Must win!"
