Red Rebels
Four hundred and eighty-four The Red Devils are out
Regarding the transfer rumors of Curtis Davis, as early as when they were still in the lower leagues, there would be a little so-called rumor almost every season, but over the years, he has always been there.
If Curtis was just a promising rookie back then, now he has become the premier central defender in the Premier League. He has excellent physical fitness, fast speed and explosive power, and has excellent anticipation and positioning sense. , and at the same time, his marking has caused headaches for countless super forwards across Europe.
In addition, Curtis has skills, passing and running abilities that other central defenders lack!
Some people say that there are three abilities that players who come out of the youth academy are most likely to lack. The first is technology. Technology has always been important. The youth academy and the first team are of the same origin. Every player who comes out has outstanding and delicate skills. , and although Curtis is in the first batch of youth training, his skills are also quite good.
Passing and running without the ball are the tactical characteristics of the United States, which is also vividly reflected in the youth training camp. From Curtis, we can also see very profound traces, so profound that someone once said, Curtis Si's most suitable position is the defensive midfielder. He is too talented as a central defender because he has excellent passing ability and creativity.
Now, Curtis has also played as a defensive midfielder. Not to mention, he performed well, but he personally and the club feel that he should appear more in the central defender. This has a lot to do with the playmaker's back position. With an excellent passer at the back, he can support and organize the defensive midfielder to the maximum extent.
Of course, this does not mean that Curtis has no shortcomings, but his advantages are so outstanding that at a young age, he has already become the main force, competing with Ferdinand in England, and he has already Having the Premier League title and the European Champions Cup in hand is not easy for a 20-year-old young man.
At a time when there is a general lack of outstanding central defenders in football, the emergence of Curtis can be said to not only represent the present, but also represent the future. Many teams are making a calculation, that is, introducing Curtis can Solving the central defender crisis in the next decade or so, he can become the cornerstone of the team.
With Curtis's continuous maturity and progress, as his performance improves, the England international's value is also increasing day by day. Especially this season, Manchester City once offered Curtis more than Ferdinand's 4,000. The sky-high price of 10,000 pounds was rejected.
But now, there are media rumors outside that Kolo Toure has a close relationship with Curtis. He learned that Curtis was very dissatisfied with his treatment and situation and hoped to improve, so he took the initiative to poach his former partner and switch to him. Archrival Manchester City, for which Manchester City even issued a blank check.
It has to be said that Manchester City is famous for its bad checks. Since they issued a bad check for Beckham, Kaká and Ronaldinho followed closely. Now it is Curtis’ turn. It is said that they are also preparing to introduce Messi.
"Oh my God, who can tell me how much money Manchester City has?" Xiao Yu threw the newspaper in front of him with a smile. He really likes reading newspapers recently, but it's not like he can't get enough of these eight poles. gossip tabloids, but focused on takeover rumors from Liverpool.
With the arrival of December, the takeover battle for Liverpool has become more and more intense. The competition between Thaksin Shinawatra and Stephen Morgan is very fierce, but Benitez has protected the team very well and prevented the team from being impressed. .
Liverpool are currently undefeated in the Premier League and occupy the top spot. Benitez wants to buy someone. He hopes to win the championship. After all, with the thickness of Liverpool’s current bench, it is not easy to win the championship. Therefore, the fans and the board of directors are calling for the acquisition to be completed in the Premier League. Make the final decision before Christmas.
Stephen Morgan is a wealthy local in Liverpool. His family has businesses all over England. He is very wealthy. He has been the third shareholder of Liverpool for many years, but this time he finally couldn't help but want to step into the forefront, but there is no doubt that he has great affection for Liverpool. emotion,
He has been a die-hard Liverpool fan since he was a child.
"More than Thaksin and Stephen Morgan, more than Abdullah, more than Glazer, but not necessarily more than you!" David said with a smile.
"According to my estimation, except for Liverpool, there won't be much movement during the winter break. Basically, it will be just small fights. However, Liverpool is currently short of staff. With the winter break at the peak of injuries, When the team arrives, Benitez may have to bring in two or three more powerful stars." Cassel analyzed the current situation.
Mourinho has refused to trade during the winter break. Mourinho is very satisfied with the current 25 players in the team, so he does not want to make any changes during the winter break. In addition, David Pace asked Xiao Yu for advice before, and Xiao Yu Yu saw that many teams are currently coveting players from Droisden, and he believed that it was more important for David Pace to retain players than to introduce them.
"Of course, how many of these media's words can be trusted?" David raised a newspaper in front of him.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh: "If Kolo Toure hadn't had his brain damaged, he would definitely not have said that he would help poach Curtis!"
Any player who has ever played for this club will know that Curtis has feelings for this club. He is regarded as the soul of the team by the fans. Similar to figures like Gerrard, you can imagine his loyalty to the club. How high is it? In addition, people like Messi, Kaká and others are not for sale to the team, and they are also loyal to the club.
"However, this matter has indeed caused quite a stir. Mark, please arrange for Jose and Curtis to attend the press conference together to clarify it to the outside world. Also, clarify it on the official website so that fans will not worry. Let’s not fall into Manchester City’s plan to disturb the enemy!”
David nodded in agreement.
In the 16th round of the league, they faced Manchester City at home. This was the second confrontation between the two teams this season. Van Gaal once said that they would defeat them away from home. Maybe the transfer rumors are the beginning of this game!
…………… Due to the emphasis on this game and the fact that the team has taken the lead in qualifying as the first in the group, Mourinho has made many arrangements for the away game against Werder Bremen. Young players and substitutes start.
The starting lineup is goalkeeper Casey Keller, the defense from left to right is Lahm, Vidic, Chiellini, and Alves, the double midfielder is Michael Johnson and De Rossi, and the attacking midfielder is Arsenal. Cuero, the two wingers are Ribery and Robben, the lone forward is Ismail, and Walcott and others are sitting on the bench.
In this game, Schaff followed the tactics from the last duel, establishing a zone defense in the midfield, using the numerical advantage to limit the attack, which made a group of young players feel very uncomfortable. There are restrictions everywhere, making it difficult to attack with a threat.
On the contrary, Werder Bremen, who were very active at home, repeatedly harassed with sharp counterattacks, and Klose scored a goal in the 44th minute of the first half.
After taking the lead, Werder Bremen was even more active in the second half and put more pressure on the midfielder. However, at the critical moment, Ribery made a sharp breakthrough on the left and used his personal skills to get out of the double-team of two people. After fighting his way into the penalty area, Ismail passed the ball to the back post and scored with an easy header to equalize the score.
After that, Werder Bremen and Werder Bremen fought back and forth happily. Since Werder Bremen and Udinese also competed for the qualification to go to the UEFA Cup, Werder Bremen was bound to win this game, which made Werder Bremen Bremen showed a strong desire to win in the game, and in the 78th minute, Klose scored another victory.
The German striker who scored twice was very excited. Although he only faced the second team, he was still proud of the goal he was able to score.
Although he tried hard to get the score back, Mourinho finally replaced a defender and replaced him with Theo Walcott, but in the end his crazy attack failed to turn defeat into a victory or even equalize.
2:1, they lost to Werder Bremen in an away game, and also lost their first defeat in the European competition this season. However, after this game, Mourinho praised these players in the locker room, thinking that they had a difficult time in the away game. Under the circumstances, he showed his fighting spirit.
At the post-match press conference, Mourinho once again highly praised Schaff's team, even though they will be eliminated from the Champions League and go to the UEFA Cup. Regarding the performance of the players, Mourinho was High praise.
"I would like to ask Mr. Mourinho, some people say that after qualifying from the group stage, we will face a weaker opponent. What do you think?"
Mourinho found this question very funny, shook his head and asked: "How do you evaluate the strength of strength?"
The reporter didn't expect Mourinho to be so critical after winning, and was speechless.
Only reporters from many English teams around him would secretly laugh and understand that although Mourinho's team was not the best team in the group stage, Mourinho still did not want to give the players any chance at this time. Instill the illusion of easy winning.
In fact, after qualifying from the group of death, the opponent in the next round may indeed be a weak team, but who dares to say that a weak team will not have a chance of upset? Who dares to say that Lyon overpowering Real Madrid and qualifying first in the group will not happen again?
There are no underdogs in the Champions League. This is something that any head coach who covets the Champions League should not forget.
"Real Madrid is the team that has won the most Champions Leagues. Are they weak teams? Ajax, Blues, PSV Eindhoven, Benfica and Glasgow Rangers are also not weak teams. They are all real players from the group. We have eliminated the strong teams of our opponents and qualified for the qualifying round, so we have no qualifications to evaluate the strength of our opponents!"
The reporter was speechless by Mourinho's words. He knew very well that he was just unlucky enough to be used as a negative example by the Portuguese. The madman did not attack him intentionally, but he could not deny that he was scolded like this in front of his face. He just wanted to find a hole in the ground and burrow down.
The second places in the eight groups are Blues, Ajax, Barcelona, Benfica, Eindhoven, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Glasgow Rangers. According to the principle of avoidance of teams from the same country and teams in the same group, unless It was unlucky to encounter Real Madrid, otherwise, the opponents drawn would not be too strong.
This is why Mourinho is so obsessed with the two-round match against Barcelona, because getting first in the group does take a big advantage in the schedule. As long as he does not encounter Real Madrid, then the hope of promotion is very high.
In fact, even if he meets Real Madrid, given the situation of the Spanish giants this season, Mourinho has absolute confidence that he can advance, but he still hopes to meet a weaker team, which will give him enough space to advance. Adjust the player's physical fitness and condition, and his rotation can also be more thorough.
Although he was happy about the potential opponents in the group knockout rounds, Mourinho still looked cautious on the surface. He even believed that teams such as Brugge and Ajax had the strength to defeat them, especially in 2 month. [ban^] First release
This is not because Mourinho is deliberately showing weakness, but everyone can see that the schedule that really determines the success or failure of this season will be concentrated in December, January and February. This period will be affected by multi-front operations. Many players have to be recruited to participate in the African Cup. It can be said that internal and external unfavorable factors broke out at the same time.
However, compared with the headache of the upcoming tight schedule, Manchester United can breathe a sigh of relief.
They tied in the last round and could only rank fourth in the group. They did not even qualify for the League Cup. In addition, they lost to Blackburn at home in the League Cup. Manchester United has only one player left so far. The league and FA Cup are up for grabs.
But everyone can see that Manchester United does not have much advantage in the league. Although Manchester United under the coaching of Ferguson has many great achievements in the second half of the season, this is a situation where Manchester United and Arsenal are the two dominant players. What happened next, but look at the Premier League today, with the emergence of the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City, and Liverpool, it is no longer the Premier League at the beginning of the century.
It may be for this reason that after Ferguson was eliminated from the Champions League, he reportedly scolded the players in the locker room and criticized them for their lack of fighting spirit, especially in key games. Many players failed to do so. Showing his best form, the team was eliminated from the Champions League in despair.
Some people also say that being eliminated from the Champions League is not a bad thing for Manchester United. With competitors such as Liverpool, Liverpool and Chelsea still fighting on multiple fronts, Manchester United focuses on the league and may be able to achieve another shocking reversal.
But Mourinho sneered at this, because on the third day after the last round of the Champions League group stage, his team ushered in a competitor that focused on the league, the archrival Manchester City!
