Chapter 142 The Third Captain
After the game, Keane was named the best player on the spot, and the media gave him a full score, impeccable Tottenham captain.
"Today we were unlucky, Tottenham played a huge fighting ability, we are lucky again, we have such a good player, in Tottenham's home, especially when Tottenham played more than perfect, we can still win. One point." Mr. Ferguson evaluated the game objectively.
But Tottenham's coach Ramos was selectively ignored. Today's protagonists are players and fans.
In the locker room, Nicole covered his head with a towel. He was annoyed and tangled. Nicole thought he could do better, but he flinched.
"Nicole, come on, you're good enough, it's not your fault." Scholes noticed Nicole's depression.
"Thank you! I'm fine." Nicole tried to squeeze out an ugly smile.
Scholes is about to turn 34 years old, and this year he has been suffering from constant injuries. As an important member of Manchester United's 92 FA Youth Cup generation, he is a native player in Manchester.As an attacking forward, his attacking methods are extremely diverse. He can not only attack with the ball, but also wait for an opportunity to pass a deadly strike. The most commendable thing is his ability to attack from the back and distribute the ball to his teammates. Finally, he who was still in the midfield was able to insert into the penalty area like a ghost, grab the best attack point and complete the fatal blow.
Former England boss Keegan described Scholes's ability to push through the attack as "the number one in the world".In the England national team and Manchester United, Scholes is the shadow killer in the midfield.His excellent technique has made him a midfield engine for Manchester United.He is the successor of England legend Pratt, but as a midfielder, he can often score goals.His technique is very good, his movement is flexible, and although he is not tall, he is very good at grabbing points.
Nichols has great respect for Scholes, although they are rivals.
At this time, Ferguson came in from the outside and took a look at the players, "I talked with Paul just now, and there is a decision to announce that Nichol will become the team's third captain from today. Qualified captain."
"My captain?" Nicole was a little surprised, he could hardly believe his ears.
"Why, is there a problem?" Ferguson smiled.
"I will work hard, Boss." Nicole said immediately.
"Okay, pack up, let's go home, and, I admit, although today is only a draw, I am very satisfied, boys."
"Yeah! Oh, oh!" There was a man's howl in the locker room, and the Jazz rarely praised people.
Manchester United's first captain is Neville, the second captain is Giggs, the original third captain is Scholes, and now it is Nickel.
The next day's newspaper headline is very interesting:
Keene: A Tough Man! "Praised Keane as the captain for leading the team to play a soul-stirring game, especially at the last moment, he risked injury and forced a header to equalize the score, which is even more admirable!
There is also an interesting headline from The Sun, which has always favored Nicole, "If Tottenham still has Nicole! "Although Tottenham played an exciting game, among their opponents, Nicole's performance was not overshadowed by their light. The problem is that Nichols was 'driven' away from Tottenham. If Tottenham really If they still have Nikkor, then their lineup is really terrifying.
Manchester United's draw gave other teams a chance, but apart from Arsenal's home win, Liverpool and Chelsea failed to seize the opportunity to close the points gap, and they both ended the round with a draw.
The team rushed back to Manchester that day, and now they have no time to think about other things, because what is waiting for them is the derby, Manchester United vs Manchester City at home.
On July 2007, 7, former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra bought Manchester City for 6 million pounds and became the new owner of the club.Since Thaksin-Chinawa took over and invited the former England coach Eriksson, Manchester City has spent a lot of money on acquiring players, buying Elano, Martin Petrov and Benjani respectively. -Stars such as Mwaluwari and Michael Ball also sold many players and carried out major reforms and reconstructions for the club.Although Manchester City's performance in the first half of the season was very good, the weakness of the team's lack of foundation has been exposed very clearly in recent rounds, and the performance has begun to decline.
Head coach Eriksson was eliminated by the British Championship team Sheffield United in the FA Cup, which caused strong dissatisfaction among fans and clubs. Now they only have the league left. If they can't get a good ranking, they can enter the European arena. So this year's huge investment can only be empty.
Manchester City lost at the feet of Arsenal in the last round. This round against Manchester United, the rival in the same city, Eriksson can bear it. Now Manchester City's main lineup is relatively stable, and it is not as intensive as Manchester United. However, In terms of absolute strength, there is still a gap between them and Manchester United, especially at Old Trafford.
And the derby battle with Manchester United is the focus of the fans of both sides. They can tolerate you a lot, even downgrade, but they will never let go of your weakness in front of the rivals in the same city.This kind of game skills and tactics has taken a backseat, and it is often courage to win the game.
The first battle between the two teams dates back to November 1881, 11. St. Mark's Hall, the predecessor of Manchester City, played at home against Newton Heath, the predecessor of Manchester United. Newton Schiff won 12:3.The first meeting in the league was on November 0, 1894. Newton Heath defeated Manchester City 11:3 at the Cade Road Stadium, and returned to the home court. Manchester United defeated their opponents 5:2, completing the Manchester derby. First double kill.It is worth mentioning that the first Manchester derby was not completed in the highest level of the league, when both teams were in the second tier.The Manchester derby appeared in the top league in the 4/1 season. Manchester City first beat Manchester United 1906-07 at home, but Manchester United responded with 3-0 when they returned home. Since then, the two sides have never met in the lower leagues.
For Ferguson, the most painful experience of the derby was on September 1989, 9, when Manchester City slaughtered Manchester United 23-5 in the league. At that time, Ferguson came to Manchester United for three years and was still empty-handed. His wife recalled: "He came home after the game, put on the quilt and went straight to sleep!" Nope, the Manchester derby was completely manipulated by Manchester United throughout the 1s, with 90 wins and 9 draws. They did not lose to Manchester City for a whole decade, including 5. In a 1994-11 victory on November 10, 5, Kanchelski scored a hat-trick. This is also the most disparate victory for Manchester United in the Premier League derby so far.
Although Manchester United's recent record is quite good, their striker problem has always been a time bomb for the team.
Among Manchester United's three leading forwards, Saha has become a "glass man". Although he occasionally plays, he has been dissociated from the team's offensive system on the field.Tevez is not suitable to play a single striker, which has been confirmed in both Manchester United and the Argentine national team.And during the winter transfer period, the team failed to introduce a striker who should play.
And Rooney's powerful impact and abundant physical fitness are an important guarantee for the team to win. His off-ball running is the most active one in the team.When the team is attacking, his running position can help his teammates to open up the defensive gap, making the players who take the ball more comfortable; Participate in defense near the baseline.In the case of Ronaldo or Giggs' physical decline.
This season, due to the addition of Nickell, the offensive and defensive organization ability of the team's midfield has been greatly improved, so Ferguson often simply let them top the front line.
Although the effect is good, it is always scary. Everyone is praying that Rooney will not be injured, but this time against Manchester City, Rooney was suspended due to a yellow card, and Manchester United is facing a test.
