I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 60: Battle of Tianwang Mountain

   Just as the British media was enthusiastic about Manchester United’s impending collapse and the loss of the league title, three days passed quickly.

  Because the game was separated at 7:45 pm on April 29th, local time in the UK, Manchester United did not rush to London one day in advance, but took the train to London at noon on the 29th.

  Take the train from Manchester to London. The express train takes only more than two hours. Even if you add the time spent on the team bus at both ends, it is less than four hours.

The Manchester United team set off after having lunch in Manchester. After arriving in London, they took the team bus to the hotel where they were staying for a short rest, then had dinner at 5 o’clock in the afternoon and rested in the hotel for another hour. It was only at six o'clock that he went to Stamford Bridge Stadium slowly to prepare for the game.

   Of course, this is the itinerary of the team, Ye Su is not so leisurely. He and his coaching team Mike Ferran and others, as well as captain Rooney took the first step by helicopter to London to participate in the pre-match press conference at noon.

   At the press conference, Ye Su appeared very low-key. In the face of the media's hype about the collapse of Manchester United, he undertook to deal with the past. This disappointed the media and did not see their expected panic or hysteria.

   It was the team captain Rooney who was much stronger when answering questions from reporters. Lu Xiaopang said that Manchester United will definitely take away the points from Stamford Bridge today and will not give Chelsea a chance to overtake Manchester United, nor will it let the champion fall behind.

   Then, after seeing Ye Su’s announcement of Manchester United’s starting lineup for this game, the reporters seemed a little silent.

  ………………

   In this game, Ye Su can be said to be a good soldier under his command. Goalkeeper De Gea, the fourth defense line will be Kyle Walker, Maguire, Van Dyke and Luke Shaw. This is a new line of defense that Ye Su re-formed after he arrived at Manchester United. It cost more than 50 million pounds, which accounted for more than half of Ye Su’s signing funds last summer. But judging from the performance of these four people this season, these signings are very cost-effective, especially the two central defenders who spend little money, which can be called absolute value.

The midfielder is paired by Kanter and Phil Jones. The expected scene of Mata returning to Stamford Bridge against his old club did not appear, but Manchester United's midfielder is another Chelsea player, Belgian Kevin De Brauner, a rising star who has risen strongly at Manchester United this season.

So far, the Belgian, who left Stamford Bridge during the winter transfer window of 2014 and Mata at the same time, has contributed 8 goals and 16 assists in the Premier League. The candidate list, and the PFA season's best rookie list. And, in the two best selections, the voices were very loud.

   In addition, the media has also reported that De Bruyne is also very likely to be shortlisted for the best of the FWA season and the official best of the Premier League.

   The two Chelsea players who left in January 2014 are now in Manchester United, and they are both Ye Su’s most important midfield commander. In addition to De Bruyne's excellent performance, Mata's performance is not bad. Like De Bruyne scored 8 goals and had 9 assists, it is likely to hand over a double-double transcript after the end of the season.

   Some media joked that it was Mourinho who set up a strong competitor for himself. After all, it would be very difficult for Manchester United to get such outstanding two midfielders if it were not for him to drive away Mata and De Bruyne.

   In Manchester United's frontcourt, the other three are Portuguese teenager Bruno Fernandez and Vardi. Rooney still serves as the single arrow.

   This starting lineup, compared with Manchester United's miserable defeat at Goodison Park three days ago, only two people are the same, goalkeeper De Gea and Vardy!

  ………………

   Compared with Manchester United, which has a very complete lineup, Chelsea is a bit unfortunate. Mourinho's most headache is the striker. Both Diego Costa and Remy are unable to play due to injuries.

   Of course, there is good news for Chelsea. The biggest good news is that Mourinho's team has been unbeaten at home for a full year!

In this season, the Blues' record at Stamford Bridge is 12 wins, 3 draws and unbeaten, second only to Manchester United, which has 16 wins and 1 draw at Old Trafford, and is the second best team in the Premier League at home. . Other teams in the two home courts can be said to be "unable to offend" them.

   Some coincidence is that the only draw for Manchester United at home was given by Chelsea. In the 9th round of this season, Mourinho led the Blues to take away 1 point from Old Trafford Stadium. This is also the only point taken by the rest of the team in the Dream Theater this season!

  ………………

   After the opening, both sides were in a fast state. Especially Manchester United, they take the initiative to attack at Stamford Bridge Stadium, the main goal of anti-office. Mourinho is actually so happy, after all, what he is best at is defending counterattacks, and the cat has a chance to give his opponent a fatal blow!

In the 3rd minute, De Bruyne made a pass to Luke Shaw, who was in the midfield, and Luke Shaw made a triangle pass to Rooney in the middle. Chubby also followed with a push and the ball was on the left side. The column flew out of the bottom line.

  Of course, at Stamford Bridge, the Blues cannot really defend themselves, at least they will not defend until they take the lead.

In the 7th minute, Chelsea launched an offensive. Matic assigned to Hazard on the left. The latter passed directly into the penalty area with the back of the instep. Fabregas was hit by the goal after he got the ball. Maguire headed to the midfield.

   In the 11th minute, Manchester United launched another offensive. Kyle Walker took the ball from the wing and handed it to De Bruyne in the center. Tintin observed the position of the old club goalkeeper after getting the ball and chose to take a long shot, but the ball missed the far post.

   Seeing his teammates constantly attacking the frontcourt, Van Dyke was a little itchy. In the 12th minute, he was also involved in the attack. The Dutch central defender took the ball from the midfield to the top of the penalty area, passed Zuma and chose to hit the goal directly, and flew out of the baseline after bumping into the defensive player, giving Manchester United a chance for a corner kick. It's a pity that Rooney's corner kick did not create too much threat. After all, Chelsea's defense is one of the best in the entire Premier League.

   The game was in the environment of Manchester United's main attack on Chelsea, and half an hour passed quickly. During this period, Manchester United had a slight advantage in the midfield, and the frontcourt organization seemed very calm.

  ………………

   After 30 minutes of the game, the situation on the court suddenly changed. Chelsea, who had been the main defender before, suddenly took the initiative to attack and launched a fierce attack towards Manchester United's goal.

In the 30th minute, Chelsea played smoothly in the frontcourt. Drogba received from the center and was assigned to Azpilicueta, who was inserted first on the left. However, the old Warcraft's passing speed was too slow, and De Gea jumped easily. The ball is taken off.

   Chelsea’s offensive was obviously premeditated. They did not stop because the offensive was blocked, but continued to press for Manchester United.

   Chelsea’s strength is unquestionable. After they launched their full offensive, Manchester United seemed a bit passive for a while.

In the 37th minute, it was Chelsea's beautiful cross-cutting cooperation. Oscar slammed his heel, and Hazard, who followed closely, got rid of the Manchester United player who was defending him, quickly inserted into the penalty area, faced De Gea calmly and scored the goal. Chelsea 1:0 Manchester United !

   At that moment, there was thunderous applause at Stamford Bridge, and the Blues fans cheered and screamed for the outstanding performance of their team's top card.

   Ye Su and Manchester United were obviously mentally prepared for the team's loss of the goal at Stamford Bridge, so there was no panic after the goal, and they continued to play steadily, control the game in an orderly manner, and organize the attack.

   However, before the end of the first half, Manchester United failed to equalize the score.

Their best chance came in stoppage time in the first half. De Bruyne picked up a pass into the penalty area. Vardy flew the header to the back point, but Courtois attacked decisively to get ahead of Bruno Fernandez. The ball broke.

   The end of the first half ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ With Hazard's goal, Chelsea, who sits at home, temporarily leads Manchester United 1-0.

  ………………

   Intermission, many media are talking about this game and analyzing the possible impact of this game. Most people believe that Chelsea will beat Manchester United at home, so as to overtake the points and eventually win the Premier League title.

   What gives these people confidence is not only the strong strength of this Chelsea, but also the magic of Mourinho, the magical coach himself.

  According to past practice, Mourinho’s team was definitely the strongest year in his second year as the head coach. Even the cosmic team Barcelona, ​​which was in full swing at the beginning, failed to get rid of Mu Ernian's theorem, let alone the rookie Ye Su.

   However, even if Manchester United fail to qualify for the Premier League title this season, it will not prevent Ye Su from showing his ability. After all, when Manchester United was in a trough, they accepted the team, led the team to the top four in the league for the first full season, and put great pressure on Mourinho's Chelsea throughout the season. The FA Cup reached the final and the Europa League also entered the semi-finals. This performance is amazing.

   Ye Su had such a good start at Manchester United. With Manchester United's tradition, he has absolutely no crisis of dismissal in one or two years. In this way, he can build his squad with peace of mind, slowly break in, and compete for the Premier League championship with teams like Chelsea and Manchester City.

   When everyone talks about this, they have a natural tone. Naturally, it is natural that Ye Su’s Manchester United lost the Premier League title this season.

   After all, with Chelsea and Mourinho's rock-solid performance, Manchester United and Ye Su gave them the opportunity to lead, and it is impossible for them to give up this opportunity.
