From the man behind the football king to the football king

After the game against West Brom, the Christmas vacation for Manchester United players has begun.

Christmas is coming, and for Westerners, it’s the New Year. Bruno and Vanessa are getting better early. They are going to Madeira for vacation this holiday. At the same time, Bruno’s family will also go to Madeira. This is considered a holiday. Let Vanessa meet Bruno's parents.

The two have been together for two years, and Bruno finally agreed to take her to meet his parents. Can Vanessa be unhappy? This little woman hugged Bruno excitedly.

Bruno returned to Manchester with the team, and Vanessa was already waiting for him in her car. The two immediately rushed to Manchester International Airport and boarded a plane to Madeira.

When the two arrived in Madeira, it was already early in the morning. Bruno's father drove to the airport to pick them up and took them directly to a holiday villa he rented in Madeira.

Before Bruno and the others arrived, his parents and sister had already flown to Madeira. As for his brother, he originally played for the local team Madiana in Madeira, which is a team in the Portuguese third-tier league and belongs to the Portuguese Second Division Southern Division.

However, compared with Bruno's infinite glory in world football, the situation of his brother Ricardo is not good, and he cannot gain a foothold in the Portuguese second team. The last time the two brothers spoke on the phone, Ricciardo had decided to hang up his boots at the end of the season and end his playing career.

As for Manchester United, they have 16 wins and 1 loss in 17 league games, accumulating 48 points and leading the Premier League standings with a 5-point advantage.

In this game, Mourinho gave his players only one task: attack.

On December 26, 2016, at 15:00 GMT, a focus game of the 18th round of the Premier League started at Old Trafford Stadium.

While fans from both sides were entering the stadium one after another, the players from both sides were accepting the final arrangements from the head coach in their respective locker rooms.

Their football is very boring, mainly based on defensive counterattacks. However, they do not have players with sufficient strength in the frontcourt, which has resulted in them only scoring 15 goals in 17 rounds of the league. The average goal is less than one goal per game, which is less than one-third of Manchester United's goals. .

It can also be seen from Manchester United's 16 wins and 1 loss in the first 17 rounds this season that this Manchester United is no longer the team when he coached.

After taking over as the coach of Sunderland in the summer, Moyes did not receive the signing support he had promised before, and was forced to use his own connections to recruit old players such as Pienaar and Anichebe. The 2016-2017 season suffered a winless start in 10 rounds, and the team has been stuck in the relegation zone since then.

………………

After resting on the island for four days, Bruno and Vanessa set out on their way back to Manchester. After all, starting from the 23rd, the Manchester United team will resume training to prepare for the next Christmas Devil schedule.

………………

On the other hand, Manchester United, after the club changed hands in the summer, spent more than 300 million euros in the transfer market and introduced a number of strong players headed by Ballon d'Or winner Bruno. The team's strength has been greatly improved.

The two sides have met 139 times in history. Manchester United has the upper hand with 63 wins, 35 draws and 41 losses, scoring 240 goals and conceding 200 goals. The last time the two sides met was on February 13 this year, Sunderland defeated Manchester United led by Louis van Gaal 2:1 at home.

This made Mourinho think that it would be very difficult for Sunderland to threaten Manchester United in the away game, so he chose to use the 433 formation before the game. This more offensive formation allows the team to face those who are not as strong as them. The chance of winning is greatly increased when facing an opponent.

Bruno spent this holiday in peace and health. Apart from accompanying Vanessa, he also went hiking with his family near the holiday villa. Due to the special geographical environment, Madeira has few beaches where you can swim and rest, but the environment full of mountains and hills is very suitable for hiking.

Madeira is an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean very far away from the mainland of Portugal. These islands, due to their special geographical location and mountainous landforms, have an amazingly mild and stable climate. The summer temperature is generally around 22 degrees, while the winter temperature is about 16 degrees, and the humidity is also maintained at a moderate level. Reflecting the special subtropical characteristics of these islands. The seawater temperature is also very mild. Due to the influence of the warm bay, the average seawater temperature in summer is 22 degrees and in winter is 18 degrees. It is so-called warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for tourism and vacation.

Since it is not a team of the same level, David Moyes has corrected his attitude and set a strategy for the team to defend on the road and then wait for opportunities to counterattack.

From the beginning of the league to now, Sunderland has played a total of 17 rounds.

In the 24-year history of the Premier League, Manchester United has won 18 times, more than any other team.

Therefore, when analyzing the opponent in this game, you cannot just look at this one game, but you must watch all 17 rounds.

Manchester United will use constant attacks to completely destroy Sunderland.

Counterattacks are just waiting for opportunities. If there is no good opportunity, they would rather not counterattack. The task of this game is to win by scoring one point.

After arriving in Madeira, Bruno initially asked her where she wanted to go, but Vanessa usually flew around all day long and didn't go to many places, so she told Bruno that she would rather sleep with him after the holiday. The lazy pig doesn't go out to play when he's asleep. Bruno couldn't help but feel weird after hearing this. Vanessa has always been so cute. She may act like a strong woman in front of outsiders, but in front of herself, she is always such a little bird. Bruno was deeply moved by Yiren.

On Sunderland's side, although their head coach David Moyes really wants to defeat his old club at Old Trafford and prove his coaching ability, he also understands the team's current situation.

But football cannot be compared so simply, especially in a football match, many statistics are actually meaningless.

A well-known football commentator in Argentina once said, "A single football game has no logic. It only becomes logical when hundreds of games are added up."

………………

………………

Whether judging from the historical confrontation record between the two sides or the current points, Manchester United is better than Sunderland, and it is much better.

Sunderland had 4 wins, 2 draws and 11 losses in the first 17 rounds of the league, with 14 points, ranking 18th and deep in the relegation zone.

Sometimes Moyes thinks that if he had received such strong support from the club when he was coaching Manchester United, he might not have left in such a mess.

However, they cannot act too weak, otherwise Sunderland will definitely be beaten to the ground by Manchester United.

"At the beginning of the game, if we kick off, we will use this opportunity to show Manchester United our offensive strength and give them the impression that we can threaten their goal at any time, so that they will attack when they attack. A lot of restraint.”
