I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 390 Falling in love with Wenger

Flying back to England from Spain, Ye Su and Manchester United immediately started preparing for the next match.

Less than four days later, at 0:30 on February 26th, Beijing time, that is, at 5:30 pm on February 25th, British local time, the 2017-2018 League Cup final will start at the New Wembley Stadium, hosted by Manchester United. Against Arsenal.

Wenger's team has performed poorly in the Premier League this season. After 27 rounds, they only ranked sixth. They are already 28 points behind Manchester United, leaving only the last hope of winning the championship in theory.

Not to mention winning the Premier League, the Gunners are under a lot of pressure to reach the top four in the standings. They are at least 4 points behind Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool, which are ranked third to fifth.

Coupled with the fact that Arsenal was eliminated by Nottingham Forest early in the third round of the FA Cup, known as the thermos cup, the League Cup has become Arsenal's only hope this season.

With the massive investment last summer, the Gunners' record has not improved, and public opinion has repeatedly voiced Wenger's resignation.

It can be said that this season, the League Cup is the "insulated cup" in the minds of gun fans!

If Arsenal makes a mistake in this final, I am afraid it will be really difficult for Wenger to stay in the coaching position of the team he has played for more than 20 years.

………………

"We attack." At Arsenal's tactical analysis meeting, Wenger made the final decision, "My judgment is that Ye Su would not have thought that we would attack aggressively in the away game. Therefore, in this game, we will catch them by surprise and strive to score early. ball."

Wenger looked at the crowd and asked again: "Who has a different opinion?"

No one has it, no one dares to have it.

At the same time, Manchester United was also conducting a pre-match tactical analysis meeting.

"Let's attack!" Ye Su raised two fingers, "Wenger has two options, the most likely is to defend first and not concede the ball, but it is not ruled out that Wenger wants to give it a go and try to get ahead first." ball."

"However, no matter what Wenger chooses, my decision is to attack." Ye Su said, "Our defense is good, our offense is better than the opponent, and we have not lost against Arsenal. Advantage."

He shrugged and said, "We are not afraid of them in the league. It makes no sense to be cautious in the cup."

It's very refreshing to be so confident. The players screamed, some applauded,

Someone whistled.

………………

After the tactical analysis meeting, Wenger immediately went to war with Ye Su at the press conference.

Wenger declared that although Arsenal's record against Yesu's Manchester United in the league is at a disadvantage, the cup is different from the league. Arsenal has rich experience and confidence.

Ye Su immediately responded without showing any weakness: I understand Wenger's meaning, but he seems to have forgotten that even if they met in a cup match, he never beat me. And the cup championships I won in more than three years seem to have exceeded the sum of his 22 years!

During the Ye Su era, the two teams met twice in cup matches. The first time was the quarter-finals of the FA Cup in the 2014-2015 season. As a result, Wenger's team lost 1:3. The second time was the Community Shield at the beginning of this season, and Wenger lost another 3:1!

Since Wenger took charge of Arsenal in 1996, he has won 6 FA Cups and 5 Community Shields in 22 years, a total of 11 cup championships, which is considered very successful.

But Ye Su's achievements are more brilliant than him. Since coaching Manchester United in early 2014, in less than four years, he has won 2 FA Cups, 2 League Cups, 3 Community Shields, 3 European Super Cups and 2 The Club World Cup, a total of 12 cup championships, just surpassed Wenger by 1 trophy.

Wenger was very helpless, his face hurt a little, but he immediately stabbed Ye Su back and said: "Ye Su has indeed won many championships, but he will soon realize that he is still far behind me."

"Yes, I am much younger than him." Ye Su said.

Wenger felt that this guy was sarcastically calling him an old bone, and said angrily: "Some young people should respect their predecessors."

Ye Su responded immediately: "Hi senior, don't cry when you lose."

………………

The media and fans were very happy. They watched the war of words between Wenger and Ye Su with great interest.

Some reporters even lamented that they seemed to have returned to the time when Mourinho was still in the Premier League.

Some reporters even thought that the war of words between Ye Su and Wenger was more interesting than before.

The people who eat melons are very happy to see it. One fan even posted that it is really impossible, you two should fight.

Ye Su even liked this post, thinking that this suggestion is very reliable.

Wenger was furious: I can kill him with one hand!

It seems that the smell of gunpowder is very strong. This is an offline appointment, isn't it serious?

It is really unexpected to outsiders that the relationship between these two people is actually quite good in private.

It is worth mentioning that Wenger and Ye Su had a heated quarrel, but none of the players from the two teams participated in the battle.

In fact, they were suffocated. But whether it is Ye Su or Wenger, players are prohibited from participating in the war of words.

Let's say hello to each other, so don't join in the fun and prepare for the battle with peace of mind.

Of course, it is said to be hilarious, but in fact the purpose of the two people is definitely not simple. They really hope to stimulate each other, make the other party dizzy with anger, and make tricks.

A good relationship in private is a private matter, and when you are facing each other as an opponent, this will really kill you.

………………

The new Wembley Stadium was sunny this afternoon and the stands were packed. Fans from the two clubs from all over the world filled this super stadium with a capacity of 90,000 people to the brim.

"The players from both sides have already entered the field, and the game is about to start. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides in this semi-final." Zhan Jun's voice sounded.

It is already late at night, and this time period is very unfriendly to Chinese fans, but according to statistics afterwards, the number of fans watching the League Cup final between Manchester United and Arsenal was quite large.

"Arsenal, the goalkeeper is their cup goalkeeper Ospina. The three central defenders are composed of Chambers, Mustafi and Koscielny. In the midfield, Xhaka and Ramsey sit in the middle, Bailey Lin and Monreal are separated on the two wings; Jinyuyan, Sanchez and Aubameyang form the striker trident. Professor Wenger's formation is a bit surprising, it seems that he really wants to win Ye Su. "

Ye Su was also a little surprised by Arsenal's starting lineup.

He didn't expect Wenger to take the risk of using the 343 formation, which is obviously to fight Manchester United!

………………

After the game started, Wenger sat in his seat, staring at the Manchester United players, thinking about Ye Su's starting lineup.

The 433 lineup is basically Ye Su's standard configuration in the past two seasons, and the goalkeeper is the Argentine Romero. Smalling and Phil Jones are partnered at centre-back. Van Dijk and Maguire, who fought fiercely in Spain in the middle of the week, both took turns. The left back is Ashley Young, and the right back is teenager Wan Bissaka.

In midfield, Manchester United played a combination of McTominay, Fellaini and Bruno Fernandez.

Then on the front line is the combination of Mbappe, Harland and Rashford.

Obviously, this is Manchester United's rotation.

Wenger felt a little offended. Facing Arsenal, who played with all the main players, Ye Su actually used such a substitute lineup. He didn't take Arsenal seriously!

However, this is also Arsenal's opportunity. If even Manchester United's substitute lineup can't win, then there is really no need for him to stay as Arsenal's head coach.

………………

Wenger got up from his seat, growling, cursing in his mouth.

He was very dissatisfied with the referee's penalty. Only five minutes into the game, Manchester United committed two fouls.

This time it was a very fierce tackle by Fellaini, who knocked Jinyuyan to the ground with the ball. However, the referee on duty only verbally warned Fellaini and did not play a card.

Ye Su's established tactics are that Manchester United will focus on offense in this game. His offense does not mean weakening the defense.

And Manchester United's offensive tactics are very hard and aggressive. It has only one purpose, to use offense to suppress Arsenal, and to use offense to offense to provide protection for the defense.

Manchester United's offense is already very threatening and sharp.

In this game, Yesu deployed the double midfielders of McTominay and Fellaini in the midfield, which ensured Manchester United's defensive hardness in the midfield and the ferocity forward, which caused Arsenal a great headache .

Wenger soon discovered that it was basically difficult to organize an effective attack in the face of Manchester United's tough midfield interception with Arsenal's established tactics for the opening attack.

Manchester United's midfield interception was very fierce, and it can even be said that it was a big move. Arsenal lacked the necessary preparations for this.

All of a sudden, scenes of people turning their backs on their backs frequently appeared on the field, and Arsenal, who were unprepared, were in a hurry.

Goldfish Eye and Sanchez, and even Arsenal midfielders such as Xhaka and Ramsey, were completely caught in a hand-to-hand battle with Manchester United.

Manchester United's tactics are very simple. The double defensive midfielders tear Arsenal's midfielder and escort Bruno Fernandez with all their strength, while the three teenagers on the front line are cruising in the frontcourt, ready to launch a critical strike at any time.

………………

Manchester United quickly seized an Arsenal mistake in the chaotic battle and launched a counterattack successfully.

This was Ramsey's fight against McTominay, who was forced to transfer the football to Xhaka. The Swiss midfielder was just about to receive the ball, but was surrounded by Fellaini and Ashley Young. He chose to pass back to Mustafi, and then the ball was intercepted by Haaland halfway.

Manchester United quickly launched a counterattack. Haaland found Bruno Fernandez with a through ball. After Manchester United's offensive brain dribbled the ball to attract the defense of many Arsenal players, they suddenly split sides.

After Rashford took the ball, he took two steps horizontally and shot a powerful long shot directly outside the penalty area.

The shot was powerful and fast. Ospina didn't dare to hold the ball and chose to hit the football outward.

Mbappe, who was ambushing in the penalty area, grabbed the football in front of the big brother of the national team. He first made a spike to avoid Koscielny's robbery, and then distributed the ball to the left.

The Manchester United right-back Wan-Bissaka who plugged in shot a low shot, and the football crashed into the net!

"Wan-Bissaka! Aaron Wan-Bissaka! Great shot! Manchester United were very aggressive, their right-backs rushed into the box and scored before Chambers!"

The new Wembley Stadium erupted in huge cheers when Wan-Bissaka kicked the football into the goal. The cheers were so shocking that even outside the stadium, the huge sound could be felt, like a volcanic eruption.

"1:0! Manchester United leads Arsenal 1:0, they go first!"

………………

Wenger was furious on the sidelines. He was very, very dissatisfied with the team's defense this time. Wan Bisaka was completely missed.

"We pressed too high." The assistant coach persuaded.

Wenger snorted and said nothing. He naturally knew the reason.

Arsenal's tactic is to press out to attack, especially relying on the two sides, especially the left side is the key point, which makes Bellerin frequently press out. This time, Manchester United hit the space behind Bellerin.

The ensuing game fell into a state of anxiety. Manchester United has further strengthened the fight in the midfield. Fellaini even brought down Sanchez and Ramsey twice in a row in five minutes.

The referee believed that Fellaini did not foul when he brought Sanchez down, but the second time it was found to be a foul and Fellaini was verbally warned.

Wenger was furious and questioned the fourth official on the sidelines: "Is that guy a Manchester United fan?"

This is a very serious accusation. The fourth official asked Wenger to calm down before speaking with a straight face. Otherwise, he would record it in the record. Such an accusation would cause an uproar.

"He's confused, don't mind." The assistant coach dragged Wenger back.

"Who do you think is old and confused?" Wenger wanted to save face, returned to his seat, and sprayed fiercely at his old partner.

The latter endured it silently. The old man always wanted to vent, and he could only vent on him. Could it be that Wenger was really going to be the referee?

………………

Forty-one minutes into the game, the referee finally drew the card. It was a tactical foul by McTominay who overturned Aubameyang.

Seeing this, Ye Su called Fellaini's name and made a gesture. Manchester United's violent interception disappeared immediately, and everyone became aware of it. On the contrary, on Arsenal's side, the anger aroused by Manchester United began to explode.

In the remaining five or six minutes of the first half, Arsenal players fouled Manchester United one after another. After the chief referee's tolerance reached MAX, he began a manic pattern of playing cards.

In just a few minutes, on Arsenal's side, Xhaka and Ramsey received cards consecutively.

Ye Su smiled on the sidelines. Xhaka and Ramsey are Arsenal's main defensive players. Both of them have yellow cards, which will definitely make Arsenal timid when defending.

Wenger is clearly aware of this too. The old French man, who had never seen anything in the world, immediately realized that he had been fooled.

"Is there any information about the referee?" Wenger asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, I've released your room." The assistant coach said.

Wenger frowned. He remembered that he was busy at the time, and only read the first few lines. Jane said that the referee whistled the penalty relatively loosely, so he didn't care and didn't continue to read.

Now it seems that there must be something in that report that he hasn't noticed.
