The Godfather of Football

Ten against eleven, sometimes the scene may not necessarily be a crushing defeat.

Just like Ye Qiu's previous life in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals in 2010, Mourinho's Inter Milan defeated Barcelona 3:1 at home in the first leg and then played as a guest at Camp Nou in the second leg. After sending off one person, it is still unknown who will advance to the finals.

Why do you say that?

Maybe this has something to do with everyone's subconscious, because everyone wants to win convincingly.

After one man was sent off, Mourinho completely gave up on the issue of face, because no matter how conservative his tactics were, it all boiled down to the fact that I had one less opponent, and then I could naturally use an extremely conservative tactic. If I win, I will be more heroic than if I win normally.

Therefore, sometimes when a red card is sent off, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for the team with one more player depends on the specific situation. Of course, in general, it is definitely a good thing, because no one does it for no reason. Someone who is willing to be sent off.

After Ferdinand was sent off, Ferguson completely gave up his resistance, replaced Benzema with Smallin, and began to use bus tactics around the penalty area. Even Rooney and Tevez in front of them retreated. By midfield, it looked more like two defensive midfielders, let alone anyone else.

In this case, it became more difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to score Manchester United's goal.

The first substitution adjustment Ye Qiu made was to replace Frank Ribery with Eden Hazard. This was a matchup substitution. The latter obviously had some physical problems, and Hazard came on. Can continue to maintain Tottenham Hotspur's attacking ability on the wing.

The second substitution was to replace Chilean international Vidal with teenager Pogba. This was also a matchup substitution.

Although it was Tottenham Hotspur's first appearance, Vidal's performance is still worthy of recognition. He played a huge role in both offense and defense in the midfield. He was able to participate in the offense going forward and showed his offensive ability. With great impact, he can actively participate in return defense in the future, and his success rate is very high.

For such a midfielder, basically everyone who has only watched this game will feel that Tottenham Hotspur only spent 12 million euros to acquire him, which is definitely a big profit. Not much else to say, just based on this game, Vidal's net worth is estimated to have increased by another 10 million euros.

This is the effect of exposure and media attention. After playing such an amazing game on the Premier League stage like Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United, Vidal's value will definitely soar, especially if he This kind of offensive and defensive style of play in Tottenham Hotspur is even more amazing.

Another person who shocked everyone must be the new Italian international Pirlo who joined this season.

This midfield master who was abandoned by Allegri showed his master level in this game. He is present in almost every Tottenham Hotspur offensive, and he himself has A direct free kick was scored, and his performance has indeed reached the level of his peak. Even his current football awareness and wisdom exceed his peak.

"Judging from the situation so far in this game, Tottenham Hotspur's two signings this season are indeed very powerful and high-level signings. Both Pirlo and Vidal can be very direct. It has improved the strength of the midfield, but I personally feel that there is one player that we must pay attention to, and that is Aaron Ramsey!”

Andy Gray took advantage of the gap in the commentary to comment on Tottenham Hotspur's entire midfield starting three in this game when Vidal came off the field. He gave Pirlo and Vidal both the top quality. In his evaluation, he believes that both players have reached the level of top European players, of course, in terms of their performance in this game.

Richard Keith said that the next step depends on their continued performance. After all, many players performed very well when they first arrived because of their freshness. For example, Sneijder and Van der Vaart were all high-level players in Real Madrid. Drive low, so judging Vidal and Pirlo depends on their future performance.

"Why do I say we should pay attention to Aaron Ramsey?" Andy Gray was very impressed by this Welsh midfielder. He looks very gentle and delicate, but he can run very well. "He is very good at running. So far in the 80 minutes of the game, he has run more than 12 kilometers. According to OPTA data, he has run the most of all players in the game. "

"Also, the data I got shows that in this game, Tottenham Hotspur players ran a lot more than Manchester United players. Maybe if someone is looking for why Manchester United suffered such a disastrous defeat after the game , I think maybe running distance will be a factor that can be used as evidence.”

"Ramsey was very good at running before, but I noticed that since last season, his use of skills has become more mature. Whether it is passing, advancing, shooting, interception, steals, etc., he They have all improved a lot. Last season, there was one game where he played as a defensive midfielder. I was very impressed in the first leg of the Champions League against Manchester United.”

"In the past, everyone knew that Ramsey could run. He was the best runner in the Tottenham Hotspur team. But many of his previous runs were blind runs, as if It’s like the current Phil Jones, who completely ignores the team’s overall tactics and teamwork, and just rushes and runs alone.”

"In the past year or so, I think Ramsey's biggest improvement has been at the running level. He has become smarter. Obviously, the experience of the past few years has taught him how to run to make himself more efficient. efficiency."

Richard Keith laughed when he heard this, "I remember Ye Qiu once mentioned Ramsey in an interview in the past. Many people said that Ramsey can only run, but Ye Qiu can't." Hehe said with a smile that the most important thing for a football player is to be able to run. Then a reporter said that he ran too stupidly. Ye Qiu said that it is normal to be a little stupid at first, just like a baby learning to walk. I was always clumsy, but gradually I learned better after falling down a few times and became more stable when I walked.”

"This reflects Ye Qiu's cultivation of Ramsey in the past few years. He just wants someone who can run well, run in a wide range, and cover a wide area. At the same time, he has excellent and delicate foot skills and can take down the ball. An all-around midfielder who can organize the ball, pass the ball and assist, and can score points when he comes in behind. He can also press the opponent's midfield and frontcourt, and he can also actively return to defense. "

"Let's look at Phil Jones now. This player's skills are relatively rough, but have you noticed that his fighting spirit in the game is very good, his physical fitness is also very strong, and he can run very well. And Ye Qiu also let him run, but I heard that he was given a hard time during training to let him practice basic technical skills. "

Andy Gray snorted, "The former legendary head coach of Nottingham Forest, Brian Clough, once said that he likes to introduce players who have problems themselves, because such players represent potential and progress, and such players It is usually cheaper, and after helping them correct their shortcomings, they are often top players, such as Keane!”

"Actually, Clough's words are very similar to what Ye Qiu once said. Ye Qiu said that the most important thing for a player to grow up is to know how to learn, because learning can help them get rid of their shortcomings. He said that all top superstars "The road to the top is actually a road of continuous learning and continuous improvement of one's shortcomings."

"Yes, so I am very optimistic that Ramsey can be the main player this season!" Andy Gray said with a smile. As long as they are British, they are more or less partial to local registered residence. Welsh players are also regarded by many people as It's my own family.

As they were talking, they saw that the originally dull game on the court suddenly experienced surprising changes.

I saw that after Tottenham Hotspur quickly passed the ball back and forth to cooperate, Pirlo appeared in an unguarded midfield area. After receiving the ball, he calmly faced the direction of the attack and directly faced the ball. pick.

Pirlo's ball passed through Manchester United's entire midfield and defense. Evans made a fatal mistake when predicting the landing point. He always has problems with his judgment of high balls. This mistake caused him to appear. Messi rushed out from behind him like a ghost, caught up with the ball, and fired a volley before it even hit the ground.

This volley was not just in the right spot. In order to suppress the ball, Messi specifically hit a ground ball, so after the ball was hit, there was a process of landing and rebounding in front of the goal, while De Gea Feishen made a save, but still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net, 7:0!

"It's over!" Andy Gray screamed, and the entire Old Trafford stadium seemed to fall into a hellish silence for an instant, because Tottenham Hotspur scored seven goals. It will tie the historical record set more than 80 years ago and will also be the most painful defeat in Manchester United's football history.

In the past three times they suffered a seven-goal massacre, Manchester United was not a strong team. But now Manchester United is already a well-known top team in the Premier League, and it is also a wealthy team that all fans around the world look up to. But it is such a team that is in its own league. At home, they were beaten by seven goals by their bitter rivals from North London. How did the Red Devils fans accept this?

The Tottenham Hotspur players were celebrating, but it seemed that they all cared about the feelings of the home team fans, so there were no provocative celebrations, and they were more of hugging each other in the stadium. This time Almost every player on the team performed very well in the game.

"Tonight will be the darkest night in Manchester United's history of more than 100 years. Even if many, many years pass, they will continue to feel ashamed and angry for this night's defeat!" Andy Gray Somewhat helpless.

As things have developed now, no one would have thought, just like no one would have thought that Tottenham Hotspur could slaughter Arsenal, but this North London team did it, and it was at the Emirates Stadium. , and this time they defeated Manchester United with such a humiliating score at Old Trafford.

The live footage of the game was replayed repeatedly, and the scene where Evans fell to the top appeared in front of all the fans. It looked clumsy and ironic, while Smallin showed no reaction at all. These two young people The central defender was favored by Ferguson, but in this game they clearly failed to live up to the expectations of the Red Devils fans.

"It's Evans who stepped up again. It was his mistake before that led to Ferdinand's red card, and now it's his mistake that caused Manchester United to suffer such a humiliation. Maybe Ferguson should reconsider him as a central defender to take over. People’s choice, after all, Evans has not performed very convincingly so far!”

Andy Gray actually sympathizes with Ferguson a little bit, and hates that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

Richard Keith mentioned Tottenham Hotspur, "As for the central defender reserves, I am more optimistic about Nastasic and Varane. These two players are more stable and improve faster. If Phil Jones plays as a defender, I think it’s still okay. In addition, I noticed before that there is a young central defender with great potential in the Tottenham Hotspur youth training camp.”

"Are you talking about the fifteen-year-old Croatian central defender Jedovic?" Andy Gray has obviously heard of this youngster.

"Yes!" Richard Keith chuckled, "I heard that this player has very good skills. He is only fifteen years old, but he plays very well at the central defender position, and Thiago Silva is only twenty. Seven years old, Kompany is only 25 years old, and Nastasic and Varane are both 18 years old, so at least for the next ten years, Tottenham Hotspur does not need to worry about the central defender. "

Andy Gray laughed out loud after hearing this, "I bet Ferguson must have a headache for the central defender now!"

Vidic is injured, Ferdinand is suspended, and they will play Arsenal in the next game. How will Manchester United's central defender be adjusted?

Do we still want to continue to trust Smallin and Evans?

…………

…………

I still remember that in January, when Ye Qiu chose to sell Yaya Toure but did not bring in a player at this position, he said, "In our team, Ramsey and Phil Jones can both play this position. Position, I don’t plan to introduce players rashly, I believe they can help the team well!”

Ramsey was greatly encouraged, but unfortunately, he failed to help Tottenham Hotspur, nor did he fill the gap left by Yaya Toure, which made Ramsey always He felt very ashamed because he knew very well how much pressure the head coach was under.

Although no one said anything on the surface, a season was ruined because of Ye Qiu's decision. To say that he was not disappointed would be absolutely false, but Ye Qiu himself took all the responsibilities on himself.

This is a very good head coach, there is nothing to say!

When you win, the credit goes to the players, and when you lose, you bear all the responsibility. Where in the world can you find such a good head coach? Especially when you make a mistake, he can take the initiative to defend you and protect you from the wind and rain!

This summer, the sale of Cesc Fabregas and David Silva put Tottenham Hotspur's midfield in the limelight for a while. Everyone is excited about Tottenham Hotspur's new season. The midfielder is worried and believes that the midfielder who lost Cesc Fabregas and David Silva will completely lose the strength of the past.

But during the team training, Ye Qiu communicated with Ramsey. This was a very common communication. He would have various communication with different players almost every day, so that he could understand the players' psychology and idea.

Ye Qiu told Ramsey that he hoped that Ramsey could take on more responsibilities in the new season.

This was the signal to let Ramsey play the main role. The Welsh people were almost flattered, but Ye Qiu was very sure of it, and in the warm-up matches, he let Ramsey play in all the games one after another, and once Another first start.

After losing to Manchester City in the Community Shield, Ye Qiu found Ramsey again. He told the Welshman, "You shouldn't always think about becoming a player like Cesc Fabregas or David Silva. You can't be the second Yaya Toure, you should be yourself, Aaron Ramsey!"

"Perhaps, before going to bed at night, you should lie in bed and think carefully about what kind of player Aaron Ramsey should be? How should his advantages and characteristics be used to help the ball? Team, instead of blindly trying to imitate and follow the path that others have taken!”

Against Everton, Ramsey started again and played the entire game, but he performed very poorly. Tottenham Hotspur was forced to a draw at home by Everton. Ramsey was one of the worst players. , but Ye Qiu told him that he would continue to start against Manchester United.

Ramsey really had the urge to cry at that time, and he even thought, why?

Coutinho, Eriksen, Phil Jones, Beckham, Sandro... there are so many people in the team, why should the head coach trust him? Why give him a chance again and again? Even if you make a mistake, you still trust him so much?

What can I do? What should I do to live up to his trust?

Maybe, I can only fight!

Because my organizational ability is not as good as Pirlo, my defense is not as good as Vidal, my passing ability is not as good as Coutinho and Eriksen, and my physical confrontation is not as good as Pogba and Sandro, but I can rely on hard work, hard work, and me Abundant physical fitness and unremitting efforts to make up for my shortcomings and deficiencies in these aspects.

Therefore, from the beginning of this game, Ramsey has been running non-stop.

Not long after Messi scored, the referee Weber blew the whistle to stop the game. Everyone saw Ramsey standing on the field, bending over, opening his mouth, vomiting in big mouthfuls, with a very painful expression. This scene made the Manchester United fans in the entire Old Trafford stadium feel a little nauseous, and even seemed to feel his pain at the moment.

To be honest, players who can fight to the point of vomiting on the field are at least the kind of players worthy of admiration.

There is no doubt that Ramsey is such a player.

Perhaps he also has many shortcomings, deficiencies and weaknesses, but he is willing to fight and fight, and this quality is enough to make up for all his shortcomings, and he deserves everyone's admiration.
