The question was too complicated, but it was too late.

Lineker's question made Blackwell a little embarrassed. He wanted to refuse to answer the question, but he was yelling at Lineker in his heart: "Just ask questions, why do you have to mention the former coach of Leeds United!"

But he finally found a job, and he still understood the principle of doing things for money.

So he adjusted his mentality a little bit, and then Blackwell started to explain: "Well... First of all, I have to correct you. I don't know much about the current Leeds United. After all, I have been away from Leeds United for a long time, and although I played against Lee last season, the current Leeds United is still very different from that time. At least Torres and Podolski, the two forwards, I have never seen them in Leeds United before."

Lineker nodded to show his understanding, but his face was a little confused. He didn't understand why Blackwell specifically explained that he had been away from Leeds United for a long time. Everyone knows this.

So he continued to ask: "Well, we all know that you left Leeds United a long time ago, and you led West Bromwich Albion to lose to Leeds United by 6 goals at home last season. But my question is what do you think of Li's lineup today, you didn't say that."

"Fuck you, you idiot, don't you understand what I say? You are holding on to this matter, right? How do I see it!? I see it with my eyes! And lost 6 goals, you don't have to say it if you can't speak!"

If it was a handheld microphone in front of him, I believe Blackwell would have smashed it in Lineker's face. After cursing Lineker in his heart, he knew that he couldn't dwell on this issue anymore, so he gathered the last bit of reason in his mind, and began to answer Lineker's questions with a little feeling of despair in his tone.

"I think the reason why Li arranged this lineup today is to show weakness. He wants to win the game through defensive counterattacks!"

"We can compare the tactical system of Leeds United since the beginning of this season. As long as Modric and Alonso are healthy, they are almost always the starting lineups of Leeds United. But today, Li chose Mascherano and Toure, who have a larger defensive area and better physical conditions, to form a double defensive midfielder. This is very obvious. He wants to compress Manchester United's space in the midfield and prevent Scholes from having an easy chance to shoot. And on the front line, he chose to let the faster Podolski start, which must be to speed up Leeds United's counterattack! I have to admit that Li does have some ideas."

"Oh?" Lineker didn't expect Blackwell to have a positive evaluation of Li Shiguang. "From what you said, you are more optimistic about Leeds United in today's game?"

Blackwell was excited and didn't realize that Lineker was digging a hole for him. He shook his head and continued, "On the contrary, I am more optimistic about Manchester United!"

"What do you mean?" Lineker's eyes lit up!

"Haha." Hearing Lineker's curious tone, Blackwell seemed to have regained his confidence. "I just said that Li has some ideas, but as a coach, you have to use the ideas correctly to win the game. If Li has studied Manchester United's games this season, he will find that Ferguson is now increasingly relying on wing attacks. Ronaldo has matured a lot this season and is not as independent as before. Most of Manchester United's attacks are launched from his side. It is useless for Li to focus on the defense in the midfield!"

"Well, you seem to have a point." Lineker nodded, "Okay! Ladies and gentlemen, the players from both sides have already appeared. Next, let's follow the TV broadcast and watch this focus battle together."

····

But as soon as the game started, Blackwell was immediately slapped in the face.

After Poldoski and Torres kicked off, the players from both sides quickly stood in their positions.

Lineker, who was watching the game from a God's perspective, found the problem at the first time. Looking at Blackwell next to him, he spoke.

"Kevin, Leeds United's position seems to be completely different from your analysis! They don't play with two defensive midfielders, Toure is in the central midfielder position, and they are in a diamond position in the midfield like Manchester United!"

"Does Leeds United still want to play against Manchester United?"

After Lineker said this, Blackwell also realized that Leeds United's position was different from his analysis.

, so there was a little doubt in his tone.

If Li Shiguang could hear Blackwell's question, he would definitely reply to him immediately.

That's right! I just want to play against Manchester United, is there any problem?

In fact, Blackwell's speech in the studio just now only said one thing correctly, that is, this season Manchester United's offensive end is indeed increasingly relying on Ronaldo's breakthrough on the wing.

But even he, a temporarily retired coach who was scored 6 goals by Li Shiguang, knows this, how could Li Shiguang, who has mastered the skill of a master coach, not know it?

So he didn't even think about defending today.

10 minutes ago, in the home team's locker room, Li Shiguang was arranging tactics point by point.

At the same time, because the morale card has been used up, today he also plans to personally boost the morale of the team before the game.

"Frank, your main task today is to help Michael and limit the Portuguese as much as possible. You can push him to the bottom line, but you must not let him have the opportunity to cut inside easily, understand?"

"Gareth, your task today is very heavy! The left side will bear 50% of our offensive tasks. If you get the ball, you can break through it with confidence, whether it is going down the bottom or cutting inside. Try to use speed to suppress your Welsh fellow countryman in their half, and don't let him have the opportunity to easily kick and cross! OK?"

"Then it's Yaya, the other 50% of the offensive tasks are on you. Don't look at me so surprised, I want you to completely suppress Carrick. Whether it is physical, technical or speed, in my eyes, he is not your opponent. I want you to completely blow him up, and then pass or shoot, it's up to you to choose."

After arranging the three most important tasks, Li Shiguang clapped his hands vigorously and asked the players to look at him.

"Okay, Young Guards, listen to the cheers of more than 50,000 fans outside! Do you feel the blood in your body has been ignited? Last time we lost to them on this field, so today, we have to take revenge and keep these 3 points at Elland Road!"

"I only have three requirements for today's game, win, win, and win!"
