I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Arsenal tried to take advantage of the opportunity of just equalizing the score and improving morale to put pressure on Manchester United's goal. It is best to overtake the score in the first half of the game.

But at this time, Manchester United quickly gave Arsenal a gouge.

This is Manchester United's second attack after a set-piece attack in the frontcourt failed.

The first is De Bruyne's credit. He relied on his personal skills to dribble laterally from the front of Arsenal's big penalty area, pulling Arsenal's defense. Then De Bruyne and Ibrahimovic, who retreated to meet him, made a wall-hitting cooperation.

Ibrahimovic's off-the-ball movement attracted Arsenal's defensive attention, while De Bruyne passed the ball directly.

A black head appeared in the camera. He jumped up, facing the football in the air, shook his head, and made a beautiful arc.

The football drew an arc, bypassed the ten fingers of Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech, and flew into Arsenal's goal!

"Rashford! A very powerful blow!" the commentator roared.

After Rashford scored, the camera immediately locked on Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger.

In fact, in a situation like this, the parties concerned are very disgusted with these backstage directors.

Wenger looked up, opened his mouth first, then closed it. Frowning, expression dignified. It seems to be the habitual expression after losing the ball, and there is no difference.

However, in the end, the professor subconsciously covered his face with his hands, and only looked up after a few seconds, which showed that he was not at peace.

This little guy in the opposing team is really Arsenal's nemesis.

On April 21 this year, after Manchester United won the 22nd top league championship in team history, the tragic Arsenal lined up to welcome Manchester United before the game for two consecutive years. Arsenal, aiming to disrupt Manchester United's championship celebration, was almost stunned when they encountered Rashford's second combo within three minutes when they were about to start their momentum. Although former Manchester United players Welbeck and Goldfish Eye each scored a goal in the first and second halves, Fellaini also scored in the second half for Manchester United. In the end, Manchester United defeated Arsenal 3:2 at home.

If that game hadn't been for Rashford's performance, Arsenal might have really succeeded in disrupting the situation.

This made all Arsenal people deeply remember this little guy who was only 18 years old at the time.

Now half a year later,

The 19-year-old Rashford met Arsenal again and had a good performance. First, he assisted Ibrahimovic to open the scoring, and then when Arsenal equalized the score and was about to start, he personally scored to help Manchester United again. The key goal to overtake the score suppressed Arsenal's momentum.

………………

There was thunderous applause at Old Trafford, with the Red Devils cheering on the performance of their own academy graduate, who turned 19 late last month.

Surrounded by his teammates, Rashford smiled honestly and celebrated the goal with everyone.

Ye Su stood on the sidelines, applauding, with a gratified smile on his face.

Seeing Rashford's high spirits now, there is pride and satisfaction in his chest.

Even without him, Rashford would have become a rising star who attracted worldwide attention, but now watching him grow rapidly under his guidance, Ye Su felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Of course, for Rashford, Ye Su's greatest sense of accomplishment is to help him defeat Bayern teenager Sanchez and win this year's European Golden Boy Award.

When receiving the award more than a week before his birthday, Rashford came to his office and told Ye Su that it was the best birthday present he had ever received in his life.

"2:1! Rashford's goal!"

"If you want to select the player who performed the best in the first half, I will vote for Rashford! This Manchester United youth who has just turned 19 and less than three weeks old, this one won this year's European Championship last month. The local kid from Manchester who won the Golden Boy Award grows up really fast!"

Lineker also praised Rashford's excellent performance.

………………

In the end, at the end of the first half, the score was temporarily fixed at 2:1.

The home team, Manchester United, led Arsenal by scoring goals from the veteran striker Ibrahimovic and the teenager Rashford, the old and the young.

"Yesu's tactics are successful." John Mortensen commented on the first half of the game, "Ibrahimovic's goal came from Rashford's assist, and Rashford's goal came from De Bruyne's assist. , Manchester United's frontcourt attacking four, except for Lingard, all scored or assisted. Although Lingard did not score or assist, it does not mean that his performance is not good, he is constantly in the frontcourt Running and pressing is also one of the key factors for Manchester United to lead."

"Furthermore, in the midfield, Kante and Fellaini managed to limit Kingfisher and Sanchez. Kingfisher worked very hard. He wanted to control the game and assisted Sanchez to score a goal. The restriction of the two key players in Arsenal's formation has been relatively successful."

"Not only that, today Rashford and Lingard are more active on the two wings, which limits Arsenal's wing attack to a certain extent." Lineker said.

"Arsenal is a delicate team. Only after a high degree of technical content and offensive speed can Arsenal play with full flavor. If there is one link that is not going well, the whole team looks a little strange. Today's strangeness lies in the full-backs. said Henry.

Henry is right, there are two problems for Arsenal today. One is the problem in the midfield, and the biggest problem is that their wings are successfully restricted by Manchester United.

Ye Su directly arranged Kanter and Fellaini, two engineer-type defensive midfielders, to sweep the midfield, that is, to lock Arsenal directly in the midfield.

On the wing, Rashford and Lingard, the two virtues of Manchester United's youth training, can attack the opponent's wings unscrupulously. This directly created a lot of pressure on Arsenal, and Monreal and Bellerin felt the most intuitive. Arsenal's two full-backs spent most of the time doing nothing on the wing, passing the ball, or passing the ball in an unmanned area. Even if the score is behind, there are not many shots of the two full-backs rushing with the ball.

………………

"I underestimated Ye Su. It's not just luck that he can achieve what he is today at such an age." Wenger sighed, "His tactics in the first half of the game were tailor-made for Arsenal. of."

"It's only 1:2, there is still time to come back." Pat Rice comforted.

"I know." The professor nodded, "I still have confidence in winning the game with a comeback. It's just that I don't feel very good about losing to the young man in the first half of the game."

"I understand, you've lost face and felt uncomfortable," Pat Rice said.

Wenger glanced at his old assistant, and said somewhat resentfully, "Pat, do you know why after so many years, you are still just an assistant coach?"

"Because I'm your assistant." Pat Rice said without hesitation.

Wenger couldn't help laughing, and said angrily: "Yes, you are right."

………………

Wenger was optimistic that his team scored in the second half and eventually came back to win the game. During the intermission, he adjusted the team's position and tactics.

He replaced Walcott with Giroud. Walcott is not a pile center forward. In front of the tall Maguire and Van Dijk, the little tiger couldn't hold it at all, so the performance in the first half was not good. Do nothing.

In fact, there are big problems in Wenger's deployment of troops in this game. Among them, arranging Walcott to start instead of Giroud is the most obvious mistake.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with Wenger not expecting Ye Su to adopt such a conservative style of play at home.

In Wenger's mind, facing the more than 70,000 home team fans at Old Trafford, Manchester United will definitely play very proactively, so Arsenal must have many opportunities for quick counterattacks.

In addition, Giroud has just experienced a busy international match day, and he is deeply poisoned by the FIFA virus, so his condition is not good.

For various reasons, Wenger finally decided to let Walcott start.

Unexpectedly, Ye Su completely disregarded face, and took the initiative to give up the ball to Arsenal at home. He played a high-post pressing tactic, which caught him off guard.

Now that Giroud is coming on as a substitute, it can be regarded as Wenger set things right and restored the correct employment.

………………

The game reached a stalemate, neither Manchester United nor Arsenal could break through the opponent's gate.

The camera gave a close-up of the coach seat on the sidelines. Ye Su sat in his seat with a calm expression. Wenger, on the other hand, was standing on the sidelines, with the professor's hands in his trouser pockets, pacing non-stop.

Ye Su wasn't in a hurry. Manchester United didn't score because they were in the lead. It wasn't them who were in a hurry. Just keep it, so they focus more on defense during this period.

Facing Manchester United's solid defense, Arsenal really have nothing to do.

At present, the Premier League has completed 11 rounds. Not counting the data in the first half of this game, Manchester United conceded 10 goals in 11 league rounds, which is the second-least conceded goal among the twenty teams in the Premier League. Only Pochettino's team conceded fewer goals. Tottenham only conceded 6 goals in the first 11 rounds, which is the best defense in the Premier League.

In fact, Manchester United encountered too many strong teams in the previous 11 rounds of the league. Facing the super strong Chelsea and Manchester City, although Manchester United won the game, they also conceded four goals in the two games, accounting for all the goals conceded. forty percent. Coupled with the hip-stretching of the defense in the away game against Watford and conceding three goals in a single game, this led to Manchester United's conceded goals reaching double digits.

Ye Su's first transformation of this team is the defensive end, and the effect is also very good.

The partner of Van Dijk and Maguire is currently the hardest central defender partner in the Premier League. And Luke Shaw and Kyle Walker, the starting full-backs for the England national team, are on the right and left, with excellent offense and defense.

Even the four-man Manchester United defense rotation of Ashley Young, Koulibaly, Smalling and Valencia is a top-notch combination in the Premier League.
