"Patience, patience." Wei Le said to the players, "Southampton can beat Liverpool twice in the cup, you can feel what level it is. Their offensive players are very strong, you will definitely face the impact."

"Hold firmly, there is a way. This is not a joke, but a real way to deal with it. From the first minute of the opening, I believe that Southampton players will attack frantically."

"But no matter how they attack, everyone should not be anxious. The later we lose the ball, or even if we don't lose the ball, the better it is for our game. This is the final of the League Cup. We must give up the kind of performance-oriented style of play in the English Championship. We must stick to discipline!"

To be honest, when Ruben Dias first heard Wei Le say this, he actually didn't take it to heart. It's not that he disdains Wei Le's words. Ruben Dias knows Wei Le's ability and is willing to believe him.

But... that's only the eighth place in the Premier League, Manchester United's offensive is just like that, what is Southampton? Of course, Ruben Dias knows that since Wei Le emphasizes it, there must be a reason for it, but is it necessary to emphasize it so much?

After repeatedly emphasizing and watching Southampton's game videos, Ruben Dias and other teammates believed Wei Le's statement. After the winter window, Southampton's offensive was indeed very fierce.

Ruben Dias stood on the court, closely watching the opponent's offensive development.

Only by standing on the court can you really feel how fierce the offensive is!

In the 16th minute, Southampton's right back Cedric Suarez cut into the front court and swept a low ball to the penalty area! The ball almost flew in horizontally at the penalty spot, and Gabidiani, who was standing in the center, suddenly broke free from Ruben Dias' interference!

"It's broken!" Ruben Dias watched Gabidiani twist his body towards the goal in front of him, and then kicked a shot! Ruben Dias had no way!

Martinez yelled, "Mine!" Then he dived sideways and saved the shot that was close at hand out of bounds.

Martinez shouted in celebration, then he walked up and patted Ruben Dias on the back, "Focus, they are really strong."

"Yes, I know, after all, this is the final." Ruben Dias stared at the tall center forward in front of him with a serious face.

"After all, this is the final." Martinez returned to his position, and Wout Prowse slowly ran to the corner flag area. His set-pieces are quite threatening, which is one of the reasons why Wei Le took a fancy to him.

Wout Prowse's corner kick was like a missile with a tracking system, drawing an arc and flying into the penalty area at a very fast speed, but this time, Ruben Dias would not let Gabidiani get another chance, he headed the ball out.

"Good ball, keep going!" Gabidiani didn't care about the opportunity of a corner kick, he raised his thumbs to greet the young player Wout Prowse, this corner kick was indeed very high-quality.

The two sides didn't entangle in the midfield for long, and the ball was back to the feet of the Southampton players again.

"This Romeu is too tough!" Van de Beek complained as he spat on the grass. He understood why Southampton's midfield could create opportunities for their strikers so stably.

First of all, there is Romeu. The bald midfielder produced by La Masia looks very fierce. The 25-year-old Romeu is at his peak, but he has not been reused since he transferred from Barcelona to Chelsea. From him to Stamford Bridge to Li Kai, his appearances are even only a pitiful 33 times.

But this does not mean that he is not capable. On the contrary, his strength has been fully demonstrated in Stuttgart, Valencia and after transferring to Southampton.

This midfielder is a complete "ball-grabbing machine", good at defense, good at passing safety balls, outstanding strength, and extraordinary ability to compete for headers. And the other midfielder who matches him is even more like a fish in water with the help of such an iron gate.

That is Steven Davis wearing the captain's armband.

The Southampton captain, wearing the No. 8 shirt, is a very creative midfielder. The opportunity in the 16th minute was created by his timely pass. The Northern Irish midfielder has reached the end of his career, but at the age of 32, he feels that he still has gas in his tank.

His successor may be Walter Prowse, who played as a right winger in this game.

The young man is a product of Southampton's youth training. He became famous at a young age for his extraordinary free kick skills. Now he has taken over the team's right to kick off all set pieces because he is really good at it.

Walter Prowse is not just a free kick machine. He is also a free kicker on the right side or on the right.He can play well in the middle. His slow speed is his biggest shortcoming, but he can make up for it with surgical precision passes.

In the 18th minute, Southampton midfielder Tadic, who got the ball, tried a lob shot in the area to the left outside the penalty area, but the ball was too straight and Martinez didn't need to move at all.

A few minutes later, the offensive started again. This time, Jota's careless back pass caused a mistake. The opponent took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. Steven Davis passed the ball directly to the left winger Raymond, who entered the penalty area!

In the double-team of Doherty and Coady, Raymond first dribbled to the left, then took advantage of the situation to kick the ball with his left foot. Taking advantage of the moment when Coady was about to block, he pushed the ball to the left with his left foot, and rushed out from the double-team of two people!

"Raymond's superb skills, he passed one, two, and now facing the goalkeeper, he chose to volley with his left foot...Martinez!!! The ball bounced off the goal post!"

Martinez got up from the ground and patted the goal post behind him with lingering fear. The goal post really helped a lot. But before that, when Raymond's low shot flew over, Martinez almost subconsciously stretched his legs to intercept.

His toes flicked the ball to the outside, and that time, the ball did not fly into the goal, but bounced on the goal post! Seeing such a good opportunity but failed to turn it into a goal, Raymond screamed to the sky and hugged his head with great regret.

Raymond, a fast winger on the wing, can be competent for the left and right wing positions and the center position. He can also play as a guest if he is arranged to be a front midfielder. His value has been rising since he came to Southampton, and it has now reached a price of 17 million euros.

"Wolves' defense is shaky. They look like a completely different team from when they played against Manchester United. Now, Wolves didn't even get a chance to shoot, and Southampton almost broke the score twice in a row!"

Martin Taylor's voice made Han Yang clench his fists. He was now on edge. From a God's perspective, the two offensive opportunities were almost entirely dependent on the performance of goalkeeper Martinez to save the day.

"Too dangerous, too dangerous. Wei Le, too dangerous."

Han Yang murmured. Of course, he knew that Wei Le could also see such a dangerous situation, but what kind of adjustments would Wei Le make?
