Red Rebels

"John Terry, move your position forward, don't pull it too far, move faster!"

"Patrice Evra, your position, your position, when Florent Malouda goes up, you should also go up, within 25 meters of him, you know?"

"Keep up, keep up, yes, when the team is attacking, the second and third echelons have to keep up, just like a wave, understand? A wave, do you know what a wave is? That's layer upon layer, Wave after wave, endlessly!"

"Alexander Hleb, don't push yourself too hard, when Malouda goes up, you should take it back a little bit, and you, Bosingwa, when Hleb takes it back, you should also come back properly, or the other party will take it back. Counter-attack and we have two centre-backs behind us!"

On the pitch, the players of the first team were divided into two groups to fight against each other. Mourinho kept shouting from the sidelines, sometimes calling this team of players, sometimes calling the players of that team, and his loud voice could be heard from a distance. .

The wave movement is a subject currently being studied by Mourinho and Cassell. It is derived from Barcelona's stepped movement, but it is more flexible and changeable than the stepped movement, which also causes this kind of movement system. complex and difficult.

At present, Mourinho's strategy is to form a framework through simple off-ball movements, and then gradually sculpt and improve.

How long did it take Cruyff to get Barcelona to accept his theory? How many years did it take Eric Harrison to help Manchester United build that off-the-ball system? The new Manchester United system will take no less time than them!

"He is our new Manchester United head coach, Jose Mourinho, a very powerful Portuguese!" Xiao Yu explained when he saw Kaka watching the first team training a little strangely.

"Is your training so passionate?" Kaka asked.

Xiao Yu smiled without saying a word, "But you see, the fighting and physical confrontation on the field are very fierce."

As he spoke, he saw little Juninho grabbing the ball and being squeezed out of position by Paulson on the other side. He threw himself behind him and fell to the ground.

"Football in the future will be more and more technically and physically demanding, especially in Europe, do you know Denilsen?"

"Of course, he is the most skilled player among the active players in Brazil!" Kaka looked up with admiration, and Denilson was a star from the Sao Paulo club.

"But he couldn't get used to the rhythm of Europe and the intensity of the confrontation, so he didn't succeed at Real Betis!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yu walked towards the laboratory with Kaka.

"You are a very talented player, a talented player, and your characteristics are different from many Brazilians, but your future must be unlimited, the Brazilian league simply cannot satisfy a talent like you, so you have to start now To start, learn to adapt to the pace of European competition and have a strong physique that can adapt to Europe!"

Kaka followed behind Xiao Yu, and his heart was excited when he heard it. He had heard a lot about Xiao Yu from Messi, and he was very admired and grateful for him, so when he heard from Xiao Yu. He was flattered by his evaluation of himself.

"Work hard, Ricardo, before your father left Manchester, I promised him that I would take good care of you, so I believe that in the next period of time, you will receive the best care!"

After the training camp, the new Manchester United began a long journey of the season.

The first game of this season's League Three is scheduled for August 5, with the new Manchester United away to Shrewsbury, and then followed by a League Cup game, the draw will be held until July 7, so the new Manchester United Manchester United do not know who their opponents will be in the first round, but it is certain that the opponents will be very strong.

After the League Cup, there are two more away games.

The opponents are Scunthorpe and Hartlepool, both of which are not easy to deal with, especially for a team like New Manchester United who has never had a professional league experience, they ushered in three away games at the beginning of the season. , this is definitely a test for the club.

In order to cope with the upcoming game, the new Manchester United specially arranged 7 warm-up games. Except for one of the opponents, which is against the Premier League Everton at home, all the rest are going away to challenge teams with a higher level than themselves. , but the first warm-up was to the Butcher's Knife course in Droyston.

Most of the opponents are also in the vicinity of Manchester. After all, the long journey will not only cost the club's funds, but also bring trouble to the team's preparations.

As a newly formed team, Mourinho has always insisted on training with the ball, and asked Faria to cooperate with the laboratory to develop a set of enhanced training with spheres. This plan is to ensure the physical fitness. To speed up the running-in of the team, so that the players can establish a tacit understanding more quickly.

From the training in the next few days, Xiao Yu vaguely guessed the main lineup of Mourinho.

His preferred lineup is Barcelona's usual 433 tactics. The striker swings between Crouch and Kitson. The former is taller and has excellent foot skills, but the disadvantage is that it cannot be used as a bridgehead in the penalty area, while the latter is physically strong and belongs to That kind of powerful center is the most dominant player in the penalty area after Zhikic leaves.

The player on the left is Malouda, and the right is Hleb. Ribery and Wright Phillips are both substitutes. The former is thin and the laboratory believes that he cannot meet the conditions for the game. Receive a body strengthening training, and although Wright Phillips performed well in training, he has not been able to leverage Hleb's main position for the time being.

The three midfielders are Arau Diarra, Juninho Jr. and Paulson. The Brazilians are in the middle of the schedule, and they frequently move forward when attacking. In the end, Mourinho especially valued his height, while Paulson was guarding alongside Juninho.

Xiao Yu's favorite Essien was deprived of the main position, but Xiao Yu did not make any comments on this, because he knew that Essien was not blocked, but Mourinho felt that he needed to be beaten, especially He often has some moves that don't follow tactical instructions on the court.

Young people always like to show their prestige, especially for Essien, who became the main force of the team last year, he is eager to prove himself better. This is motivation, but it is also pressure, so Mourinho decided to let him this season. Substitute.

The back line from left to right is Abidal, Terry, Distin and Bosingwa, and the goalkeeper is Schmeichel.

Although Evra performed well last season and is the absolute main force of the team, in Mourinho's view, his defense still has a lot of flaws, especially his habit of rushing forward is even more uncomfortable. Rest assured, he is still young, and Abidal appears to be more comprehensive than Evra, and his offense and defense are more balanced. Of course, he is the main force of the team.

As for Bosingwa replacing Stanson, Xiao Yu felt that the former should be more in line with Mourinho's taste, with balanced attack and defense, and Stanson's slow speed, which led to his apparent lack of offensive ability on the flank. Mourinho even thought that , he is more suitable as a central defender, rather than the right back where he is currently.

As for goalkeepers, Mourinho made it clear that in the absence of injuries and physical fitness, Schmeichel will be the absolute main force of the team, because the players on the field are relatively young and need him to sit on the back line.

In addition to 433, Mourinho has also tried the 442 lineup many times in training. The forwards are basically Crouch and Kitson, and Olic and Palacio each have a player to form a high-speed combination. , which is also the most enthusiastic striker partner of many English teams.

The two midfielder midfielders have not changed, and the midfielder adopts a double midfielder. Arau Diarra and Paulson are in the middle, and the back line has basically not changed.

From this set of tactics, Mourinho is obviously thinking about how the team should respond when Juninho is absent. After all, the current lineup of the new Manchester United really lacks a player who can be as strong as Juninho. shooter.

De Rossi is good. He has returned from a striker to a midfielder. He has a certain passing ability, but he is not young enough for Mourinho to entrust him with a heavy responsibility. You know, this is the League Three professional league. Not the amateur league it used to be.

Of course, the main lineup in the training game does not mean that the main force will be played in the official game. Mourinho has expressed his attitude in exchanges with the players many times.

"In my team, no one is irreplaceable and the absolute main force, if any of you want to play, okay, show me your strength and hard work in training to convince me, and once you are in training If the performance on or off the court makes it difficult for me to accept, then I'm sorry, you have to accept the bench on the sidelines!"

It is precisely because Mourinho has shown his attitude since he took over the team from the first day, so although the training intensity of the team is very strong, the players still grit their teeth and persevere.

This point has to be commended to the laboratory. They require the masseuses hired by the players to be able to relax and recover after the high-intensity training of the players, which makes the new Manchester United players experience Mourinho's hell-style training. Amazingly, there were no injuries.

The only thing that makes people feel a little uneasy is Ribery. The Frenchman's physical fitness is so bad that Mourinho even had to let him temporarily stop participating in the first team training and go to train with the youth team. At the same time strengthen physical fitness.

Every time he sees Ribery in the youth team, Xiao Yu has to shake his head and sigh. It is not for nothing that those late blooming football talents were abandoned early in their careers.

Evra has speed, but his technique and defensive skills are not very good. Although he has made great progress in the past two years, in Mourinho's view, he has not yet met the main requirements of the professional league. Being abandoned by Paris Saint-Germain is not a blind spot.

The same is true for Ribery. His body is too thin and his physical fitness is too bad. Just imagine, except for a perverted traverser like Xiao Yu, who would give Ribery a person who seems to be unable to play professional games. The player has the opportunity to let him take a salary, slowly adjust his body, and slowly strengthen his physical fitness?

Maverick's magic can't be practiced in a day!
