Red Rebels

657 Little Monster

From winning 7 crowns, returning to Manchester, to Kaká renewing his contract, the whole process only took two days.

Although the Red Rebels caused an uproar around the world that day, they could not stop the flow of England's continued progress at all, and because the eighth round was an away game against Newcastle.

Speaking of Newcastle, a veteran team, the recent situation is really difficult.

Many English teams have been acquired by wealthy people. They either spend a lot of money on signings to improve the team's competitiveness as quickly as possible, or they start to target the introduction of powerful but low-priced cost-effective stars and pay attention to long-term planning. , Newcastle is still holding on to its original title of a traditional British team.

However, in an increasingly competitive UK, Newcastle's life is getting harder and harder. It can even be said that it is getting worse day by day. Now even relegation favorites like Fulham and newly promoted teams like Sunderland are struggling. Dare to mess with Newcastle's head, which shows the low ebb of the Magpies in recent years.

Unlike the Red Rebels' expedition to Japan, other English teams can get a week's rest after playing 7 rounds. This allows the Magpies to sit at home, prepare for the game calmly, and wait for work.

Allardyce's life has not been easy at all recently. He joined Newcastle at the end of last season. Even though the club's operating conditions are not ideal this season, they still offered him a transfer fee of 100,000 pounds to introduce him. Players such as Alan Smith and Manchester City's rising star Barton also introduced 20-year-old forward Viduka on a free transfer. The Australian forward performed well at Middlesbrough last season and scored 4 league goals. He was sent by Newcastle. With high hopes.

However, this series of signings failed to improve the Magpies' strength. Newcastle is currently reduced to fifth in the Premier League, just one step away from the relegation zone.

For this situation, Newcastle's board of directors no longer have much patience. They have issued a kill order to Allardyce. If he cannot make the team's performance improve during the Christmas period, he will Will have to find another job.

Allardyce knew very well that this would cost him his life.

Newcastle's Christmas schedule includes the Red Rebels, Droyden, Chelsea and Manchester City. Any one of these four teams is far better than Newcastle, and in the busiest schedule, they will meet at the same time. When it comes to these four teams, Allardyce is really desperate.

Of course, despair is what he thinks deep down. On the surface, he still vows that Newcastle can score points against the Red Rebels.

Being conservative is Allardyce's tactic, and it is also the tactic used by countless English teams when facing the Red Rebels.

Everyone knows very well that after traveling long distances to Japan, returning to Manchester and rushing to the away game non-stop, the Red Rebels barely even had time to rest. This is the moment when they are most tired, even the little ones who are in the best physical condition. Rodou was a bit overwhelmed, and Mourinho replaced many substitutes in this game, including Theo Walcott and Ismail.

Once Newcastle want to defend, especially at St. James' Park, it is not easy to beat them.

"Tmd, this bastard is really shameless"

Even the good old Cassel cursed and glanced at the home team's coaching bench not far away. Allardyce's fat face happened to be in the coaching bench and glanced at the visiting team's coaching bench, but he seemed to be afraid of the stands behind him. Some Magpies fans would throw pig heads at him, but they would quickly shrink back.

At this time, he must be laughing in his heart. He didn't even think about winning. At least he would rather not win than make sure to get points first.

If it is o:o, Newcastle gets the points, which is already a good ending for Newcastle. I believe the old men on the board of directors will also be satisfied, right?

As for the fans' feelings... Allardyce can't care about it for the time being. After all, what he wants to do most now is to keep his job first, and then consider other things. After all, he is not Mourinho, and Newcastle is not Red either. The Rebels cannot guarantee that they will play well and still win the championship.

Who makes him not the protagonist?

"He plays so conservatively and ugly at home, why don't he drown in the fans' saliva?"

Mourinho and Maradona looked at each other on the coaching bench, and they were both surprised. They didn't realize that Cassel started to curse. She really has the potential of a shrew, she is vicious, ruthless and shrewish.

"Although they are a little conservative, the tactics are quite right. Besides, their strength is not as good as ours, so it is understandable to be conservative," Mourinho said with a smile.

Cassel glanced at him and said, "You are praising your opponent. It's already been 66 minutes and the score is still o:o"

Having said this, Cassel opened the notebook next to him, which immediately showed the latest English game situation, "Arsenal: o Temporarily leading Tottenham, Manchester City away o: Leading Aston Villa, Droylsden o : Leading Bolton, Liverpool 4: o Leading Portsmouth, Manchester United at home: Draw with Everton, Chelsea o: Leading Blackburn"

Cassell was talking about several English league games that kicked off at the same time. Except for the strong dialogue between Manchester United and Everton, the other strong teams did not miss the opportunity to score points and all took the lead. , only the Red Rebels are still o:o

"Should we make some adjustments?" Cassel asked.

Mourinho smiled bitterly and glanced back at the bench. Since the next round was against Liverpool at home, Mourinho left Ronaldinho and Messi in Manchester. Although Aguero came, but It's Asha, and Mourinho obviously has no intention of letting Aguero.

The Trident is the most powerful weapon for the Red Rebels to face Liverpool at home in the next game. The schedule is so tight that Mourinho can only give them a rest in this game against Newcastle.

Cassel also understood Mourinho's difficulties and smiled bitterly. He knew that the Red Rebels really didn't have many bargaining chips to change now, especially after they left Ribery, Robben and many other players for two consecutive years. After the strong reinforcements, young rookies such as Walcott and Di Maria are now somewhat unable to catch up.

But as long as they are given another year or two to develop these players, the Red Rebels will once again reach their peak.

Of course, with the current lineup of the Red Rebels, they are the dominant force even in Europe and have strong advantages.

…………

Ismail kept running back and forth on the court.

Mourinho's requirement for him in this game is that he must be at the forefront when attacking. Especially when the Red Rebels are in possession of the ball, he must be firmly nailed in Newcastle's penalty area and use his His dominance in the penalty area suppresses opponents, and when defending, he has to counterattack on the spot and become the team's first line of defense.

Generally speaking, Mourinho's request is not too surprising, but there are some targeted details.

Ismail is very familiar with all this, because he grew up in the system of the Red Rebel Army. He is fully qualified for all this. Besides, he is already 0 years old and knows better than anyone else that he Gotta prove something.

Out of responsibility, motivation, and loyalty to the Red Rebels, Ismail worked very hard and diligently every time he played, and Mourinho also made no secret of his love for him. He even It is often said that Ismail is the striker that best suits his tactics.

Compared with Drogba, his shooting is more stable and his technique is more delicate. Compared with Villa, his body is stronger and his header is better. It can be said that Ismail is a forward with very strong comprehensive ability.

At present, he has firmly controlled the position of England's forward. If he plays as a double forward, Ismail must be one of them. If it is a lone forward, it is basically Rooney, but Ismail can always get many opportunities.

At 0 years old, Ronaldinho was already famous when he was 0 years old. Messi and Cesc Fabregas also became super geniuses with both strength and potential at 0 years old. Although Ismail is also widely favored, But in fact, he doesn't have many impressive goals or the experience of single-handedly saving the team.

Ismail's belief is very simple. Since he does not plan to leave the Red Rebel Army, he can only make a career in the Red Rebel Army.

This belief allows him to always work very hard on the court, no less than Drogba.

In this game, he was entrusted with an important task and played, but he had to face Newcastle's difficult and conservative tactics. Although Ismail tried hard to create several opportunities, he failed to help the team score.

Asha played Kaka's position. He formed a new magic quartet with Ismail, Walcott and Di Maria. However, judging from the on-site performance, the effect was average. He was unable to open up the situation and was unable to do anything. To the Magic Quartet's mercury-like offensive coordination and tacit understanding.

Seeing that Newcastle strengthened their interception on the field, Asha retreated to participate in more organization, and Ismail also followed suit.

Keeping distance is a very important factor in the Red Rebels' tactics, because only by maintaining a good distance between each other can they cooperate smoothly and maintain the team's stability and control of the game.

Just when Ismail retreated, De Rossi successfully intercepted the ball from Button's feet, and then quickly handed it to Michael Johnson. The England field sent the ball forward without any hesitation. .

At this time, Asa happened to retreat. When he saw the ball coming from Michael Johnson, he stopped and sent it, and immediately made an arc and sent it to the left wing. He originally retreated to prepare to participate in defense, but now he is moving forward Insert Walcott.

The young English player overpowered Newcastle's full-back, headed the ball and sent it right to the feet of Ismail. The latter leaned on the defender with his body. Seeing that there was no chance in front of him, he turned around to face the ball. He stretched out his left leg and swung it, handed the ball directly back to Asa, and then ran forward.

"A beautiful pass, with an imaginative scorpion tail. Ismail used this imaginative pass to give the Red Rebels a chance to reorganize their attack."

When Ismail pushed forward, Newcastle's defenders had already caught up with him, clinging tightly to Ismail. After all, this tall and powerful forward had powerful damage in the penalty area. He didn't know how many enemies who despised him fell at his feet.

In addition to staring closely at Ismail, Newcastle's defenders also targeted Ismail's left foot, because everyone knows that the difficult little monster is a left-footed player through and through. Almost all goals, other than headers, are scored with the left foot.

Asa saw that Newcastle's players had returned to their defensive positions and the defensive system had stabilized. He knew that this round of fast break would not be possible again, so he raised his hand, indicating that he should stabilize first and slowly look for opportunities.

"These guys are all focused on defense. Once the ball is lost, they will set up a steel barrel formation. It's his grandmother's fault." Cassel was still very dissatisfied and cursed on the sidelines. He rarely lost his temper with such anger.

Michael Johnson moved forward and cooperated with Asa several times, but failed to find a chance. When he saw Di Maria on the right taking the initiative to retreat and raising his hand to request, he immediately transferred the ball to the right.

Di Maria took the ball with his back to the defender, suddenly turned around, and broke through with the ball.

Enrique, the left back that Newcastle introduced from Villarreal for 6.5 million pounds this season, immediately caught up with him, but the Argentine teenager suddenly paused. He was so frightened that he thought the latter was going to stop suddenly, so he quickly slowed down. But suddenly Di Maria stepped in again and immediately distanced herself from Enrique.

Newcastle's full-back wanted to step forward to cover, but Di Maria passed a low ball into the penalty area first.

Facing Czech international Roznar, Ismail leaned on the opponent with his body. The latter obviously knew the threat of his left foot, stuck in the position, squeezed his body, and forced him to shift his focus to his left foot.

Seeing that the ball has come, Ismail leaned against Rozenar, facing the ball from the right, suddenly raised his right foot, and skillfully dumped the ball to his left side, in an even position. , just in time to hit the door after turning around.

At this time, it was too late for Rozenar to sense something was wrong. Ismail turned around and volleyed very quickly.

Ismail's kick was very smart. He not only hit the far post, but also deliberately hit the ball to the ground not far in front of the goalkeeper. It bounced off the ground. Although the goalkeeper made a save, he still failed. Can't stop the football from bouncing back in, o:

"It's so... so beautiful. It's a beautiful shot. It's very, very beautiful. From offloading to turning around, from turning around to volleying, Ismail was extremely calm throughout the whole process. He even didn't even respond to the goalkeeper's reaction and save. We all made predictions, so we cleverly hit a rebound ball.”

"The ball went in, and Ismail scored a very beautiful shot with his right foot, which he has never been good at. But after this shot, everyone will completely change their view of him, because He doesn’t just have a golden left foot, he also has a golden right foot.”

Watching the slow-motion replay, unloading the ball, turning around, and volleying, Ismail's right foot does not look like a weak foot at all, but rather like his dominant foot.

"Mourinho also seemed very excited, clenching his hands and roaring frequently. Obviously Ismail's beautiful goal made him very satisfied, and the latter's goal also completely made people realize that Mourinho had The praises heaped upon him are not exaggerated.”

"Some people say that he is a little monster, and some people say that he is an enhanced version of Ibrahimovic, but I think Ismail tried his best to prove that he is not anyone, he is Ismail."
