Seeing Arsenal's playing style, the professor was more anxious than Ferguson.
No, why can't you solve the problem with your feet?
This is not the team he wants.
The professor couldn't help but stood on the sidelines and shouted, "Stop fouling!"
He would like to let the players cooperate more on the ground, but this is not very realistic now.
But too many fouls consume more energy from Arsenal players.
Wenger is not opposed to fouling, but it should be based on what is helpful to tactics, rather than just fouling for the sake of fouling.
It seems that changing this team is not an easy task.
Arsenal's situation makes Ferguson a little worried.
"Brian..."
Ferguson whispered.
"Are you ready to replace someone?"
Kidd asked.
Ferguson But I don't know what to say.
Seeing this, Brian·Kidd said, "Perhaps Dejan should be allowed to play on the court for a while. He is often substituted. The fans have objections and the players will also be worried. They have only scored two goals. Although they don't want to admit it, Arsenal does have the ability to make a comeback."
Ferguson nodded and said, "Okay, then it's up to you. You are responsible for Dejan's injury."
"Okay, no..."
Kidd's eyes widened.
I was about to nod before I realized something was wrong.
How can he be responsible for Dejan Lu's injury? Could sacrificing him help Dejan Lu recover?
The Arsenal players on the field are not having a hard time either. The strength of Mark·Hughes and Andy Cole is there.
Especially when Cole was playing football today something wasn't right.
He is such a good center forward, but he frequently pulls aside to give way to Dejan Lu.
Toni·Adams thinks Mr. 7 million is really fucking speechless.
If it were at Arsenal, someone worth 7 million pounds would be able to move sideways.
Whether it is Graham or the new Wenger, such players must be given sufficient tactical status.
The veteran stars are more stable. At most, they can cooperate with Dejan Lu in front of the penalty area against the defensive line.
Seaman finally caught Dejan Lu's shot and immediately threw the ball away.
Bould took the ball directly to Dixon. Dixon took two steps forward and was pressed by Dejan Lu.
However, there was Parrott in front of him, and Dixon passed the ball directly to the front.
When Dejan Lu turned around, Parrott gave it back.
The two of them had a lot of fun.
Redondo saw this and rushed up from the middle. It is not easy to steal one against two.
It doesn't mean that you can defend well.
When Dixon saw Redondo with the ball, he immediately turned around and made a wide-range move.
It's still fun to play two on one, but it's not fun when facing Dejan Lu and Redondo two on two.
Paolo·Merson's ball-stopping skills are pretty good, and he can stop such large-scale moves at his feet.
As the Prince from Highbury, his basic skills are quite good.
Kanchelskis pressed forward very aggressively. Paolo·Merson pretended to pass by with his right foot and immediately gave the ball to Moro.
Moreau himself took the opportunity to move forward.
With only Lee Sharp in midfield that was the best chance.
He chose to accelerate and charge forward, and he happened to have teammates around him to support him.
The moment Sharp made the move, Steve Moroma hit him with a horizontal kick.
At this moment, Gary·Neville rushed up and tackled the ball and sent it out of the sideline.
"Today, Manchester United's defensive quality feels like it has declined a bit. Kanchelskis's future at Manchester United has turned red. When he and Dejan are on the field at the same time, someone needs to be involved in defense. But the Russian winger's defensive ability is obviously not as good as Dejan."
"Yes, David·Beckham is a very hard-working player. Beckham runs a lot on the court. Ferguson should consider giving Beckham more opportunities. His partnership with Gary·Neville on the right side did not weaken Manchester United's defense."
Steve·Morrow threw the ball, and Paolo·Merson was immediately pressed by Gary·Neville.
Merson, an old man, chose to break through forcefully, and immediately stretched out his hand to push Neville.
When the two people rushed to the wings of the penalty area, Neville, who failed to steal the ball, also chose to take action. Paolo·Merson took advantage of the situation and fell sideways into the penalty area.
Confused!
Gary·Neville Everyone is stupid.
A person who was fine just now, with strength as strong as an ox, collapsed now?
"You bastard, stand up, or I'm going to beat you to the ground."
Parister walked up directly and cursed.
"You diving bastard, do you want a penalty?"
Schmeichel rushed up and cursed, "Don't think I didn't see it, you jumped out on your own."
Paolo·Merson fell to the ground and ignored the Manchester United players.
Steve·Morrow and Martin·Keown quickly rushed forward to block the Manchester United players.
The referee reacted quickly and rushed forward immediately.
The brawl between Manchester United and Arsenal had a huge impact. We can't let the two teams fight each other on the field again.
"Get out of the way, anyone standing in the way will be given a card!"
The referee shouted directly.
Steve·Bruce pointed at Merson on the turf and said, "Is this a penalty kick?"
The referee glanced at Merson, took out the yellow card from his jacket pocket and held it up.
Merson jumped up from the turf and said, "He just kicked me and I fell down. This is a penalty kick!"
"Nonsense, I didn't touch you at all!"
Gary·Neville shouted.
"Mr. Referee, that kid did push someone just now."
Steve Morrow came up and said.
The referee shook his head.
Damn, you are Arsenal.
If we give you penalty kicks at this level, you will not be able to give your opponents even one penalty kick per game.
Steve Morrow, who failed to get a penalty kick, walked back with regret.
Old Trafford There were bursts of boos and jeers.
Paolo·Merson is also an old rival. Seeing him in such a mess makes the Red Devils fans very happy.
Ferguson turned to look at Arsenal's coaching bench.
As expected, the Frenchman looked at the field with a troubled expression.
Oh.
He also wanted to cheat for a penalty kick.
The French guy really has no good intentions.
He could see early on that this guy was not a serious person.
Some good guy talks about almost signing someone else's player all the time.
Schmeichel originally wanted to observe before serving, but suddenly found Dejan Lu advancing at high speed from the left, and he immediately passed the ball directly to Redondo.
If it weren't for a free kick in the backcourt, he would choose to take it with his hands, which would be more accurate.
But it was enough. Redondo didn't even stop the ball and immediately turned sideways and gave the ball to the left.
"Defense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
the professor shouted from the sidelines.
Even in the backcourt, the speed displayed by Dejan Lu is quite terrifying.
Because of the penalty kick just now, many Arsenal players have not yet returned to their positions.
This left space in their half.
Ian·Wright was the first to notice Dejan Lu rushing forward, and he followed Dejan Lu as he ran all the way.
But Arsenal fans were soon surprised to find that Wright, who is known for his speed, could not catch up with Dejan Lu at the halfway line, and the distance between the two was still widening.
Such speed is really terrifying!
After passing the center line Dejan Lu immediately knocked the ball forward.
He could accelerate again, but his teammates weren't quite there yet.
Both the center and the right wing were running forward, so Dejan Lu controlled the rhythm of his feet and shortened his pace slightly.
This choice had immediate results, giving Ian hope of catching up with Dejan Lu.
The black man quickly gritted his teeth and chased after her, his toes almost breaking the tips of his shoes, but he still couldn't catch up.
"Dejan!!!"
This primitive speed competition makes the Red Devils fans' adrenaline rush.
The simplest and crudest method can give them the greatest sensory stimulation.
Just before reaching the restricted area, Dejan Lu suddenly made an emergency stop.
Click——
Turn sideways and move the instep of your right foot.
Wright, who was rushing forward, tried hard to stop, but his body couldn't do it. He could only fall to the turf in an awkward sideways way with his legs stretched out.
The stands near the corner flags erupted in laughter.
In the past, Paolo·Merson had a good performance in Theatre of Dreams.
But now compared with their Number Seven, Merson is only equipped with Dejan Lu sneakers.
Martin·Keown rushed towards Dejan Lu and stretched out his right foot.
Dejan Lu knocked the ball with his left foot and passed the ball to the penalty area with his right foot.
Dixon also tried to chase the ball, but the ball was faster than him.
Andy Cole didn't expect that Dejan Lu passed the ball directly to him.
He quickly turned around and rushed to Adams, who barely managed to knock back. He couldn't stand firm and fell near the penalty area.
Arsène·Wenger clenched his fists, and his entire elegant face turned red.
I didn't even dare to take a breath.
Dejan Lu has the ball again!
This is a whole line of defense. Can it complete the steal?
Adams chased after him very quickly, and Winterburn simply fell to the ground and performed a sweeping kick. However, Dejan Lu, who was prepared early, slightly changed the direction of dribbling the ball and completed a forced breakthrough without slowing down.
Got the ball and entered the penalty area again.
"Damn it, I'm coming!!!"
Seaman yelled and simply gave up using his hands and shoveled out with his feet.
Adams, who was chasing back, also chose to slide and tackle with both feet. This is the best way to expand the defensive area and may be able to block the ball.
Bang——
Dejan Lu also took action at this time.
Three people responded at the same time.
The Arsenal goalkeeper and captain worked very well together to expand the defensive area with tackles, and they almost didn't overlap. But Dejan Lu seemed to have known it for a long time. After his right foot volleyed, the ball rolled between the feet of Bruce and Seaman and rolled all the way into the left side of the goal.
"Dejan!!!!!!!!"
"Dejan Goal!!!!!"
"Dejan once again toyed with Arsenal's defense and still cooperated with his teammates."
"He continuously cooperated with different teammates and easily penetrated Arsenal's defense without giving Arsenal any chance. Adams and Winterburn, Premier League's best defenders, looked like youth team players in front of him."
"This time Dejan ran for more than 80 meters. I think he was fully capable of scoring the ball without passing the ball. However, in order to let his teammates have some sense of participation, he still chose to pass the ball to Andy Cole after passing the pass, allowing Cole Successfully got an assist! "The French say they want revolution, but at present, his performance is not better than Graham. This is the French revolution. Unless you stand at the height of history, you will not know whether what those French guys are doing is beneficial. "
"But we don't need time to confirm the changes that Dejan has brought to Manchester United. Since Dejan's first appearance in November, this Manchester United has transformed into a European hegemon. Eliminating Bayern 10:2 is not the end, it is just a start. At first, some people said that Ajax might stop Manchester United and Rijkaard will complete the revenge. Let's see how the Dutch, who cannot even defeat the Germans, can win against the king of Munich!"
In both teams, Bayern was beaten in two away games at Munich.
This title of King of Munich was even proposed by "Bild newspaper".
Dejan Lu is not just a bloody scorer on the field, even if he is not a player on the field, you can feel his terrifying dominance on the field when watching the game.
Whenever the opponent sees a little hope, he will immediately kill the opponent in the most cruel way.
Let every opponent fall into an endless abyss.
Francesco·Totti Watching Dejan Lu on TV with his collar turned up in celebration, I always feel a little regretful.
Unexpectedly, I couldn't play football with Dejan Lu.
He was still thinking about it before, but by this time Dejan Lu had left Italy.
He made his Serie A debut under Boskov, and the team also bought Marco·Lanna, but the Roma first team was not as good as he imagined.
He had tried to make friends with Lanna before.
But that guy went to work at a fried chicken restaurant in Rome whenever he had a day off.
He often yelled some incomprehensible words on the court, and Totti was a little afraid to get close to him.
Who knows if neuropathy is contagious?
Now he has become a joke because of his cultural level.
If he becomes a psychotic and low-culture player again, he will probably be more famous than Buffon and Lanna.
However, the idea of transferring to Premier League is not as strong as before going to Genoa.
England is not a good place.
It's not a mystery either.
He had heard many people say that it rained all day over there, and that staying in the UK for a long time would lead to baldness. This was what Totti couldn't bear the most.
At present, he has not thought about what will happen in the future.
We can only play like this one day at a time.
Carlos·Mazzone was not as patient with him as Boskov, which still made Totti feel a little confused.
Buffon actually wants to go to England to play football.
But Schmeichel made him feel a little tricky.
Schmeichel is only 32 years old and has been awarded the best goalkeeper in the world consecutively.
The status has not declined at all.
Considering that many Italy goalkeepers will play until they are around 40 years old, even if Schmeichel loses his main position at the age of 38, he still has to wait another six years.
He couldn't help but grab his hair.
Why is it so difficult to play football with Dejan?
In front of Arsenal's penalty area, Paolo·Merson looked at Dejan Lu who was surrounded by his teammates, and the envy in his eyes could not be concealed.
He is a super genius in his own right.
The core of the giant Arsenal.
But when he looked at Dejan Lu, he felt like he had spent the past 27 years living like a dog.
They are both talented players, so why is the gap so big?
"What's wrong, are you scared?"
Adams asked.
"How come?"
Merson shouted, "I'm not afraid. You lost the ball so fast that I don't know what to do."
Adams raised his middle finger to Merson.
Although there is an age gap between the two, they are drinking buddies.
Merson was taken to drink with these old guys.
"I'm serious, if we concede fewer goals we have a chance."
Paolo·Merson said with sincerity.
Adams almost wanted to hit someone, pointed at Merson's face and said, "If you score more goals, we will have a chance. You just need to be as efficient as Dejan."
This time it was Merson's turn to fall silent.
Damn it, in the end it's Dejan Lu's problem.
When they won the English First Division championship before, Manchester United was definitely not so difficult to deal with.
"Let David get up and warm up, and Ince, tell them they don't need to go back to the locker room during halftime."
Ferguson said.
After thinking about it for a while, it was almost half time.
Then replace Dejan Lu in the second half.
But before replacing Dejan Lu, the defense should be strengthened to reduce some of the pressure on Dejan Lu.
Brian·Kidd immediately turned around and called Beckham and Paolo·Ince.
Today's Ferguson is different from usual. He feels that the new Arsenal coach has put some pressure on Ferguson.
This still makes Ince a little surprised.
Because even during the period when his grades were not good, or when he faced coaches like Dalglish and Graham, Ferguson was not as unusual as he is today.
Ferguson, who neither curses nor is irritable, makes Kidd a little scared.
Arsenal restarted the game and the referee blew the halftime whistle.
Ferguson, who was still thinking just now, immediately bent down and picked up Dejan Lu's kettle, walked up with a smile and asked, "How about it, isn't Arsenal very barbaric?"
"Fortunately, I can feel that Mr. Wenger is changing this team."
Dejan Lu said with a smile.
Ferguson nodded.
It seems he's not the only one who feels this way.
Ferguson put his arm around Dejan Lu's shoulders and walked towards the passage, deliberately walking behind.
After all the players entered the locker room, he asked in a low voice, "Do you think that French guy can succeed?"
"I feel that Mr. Wenger is similar to you when you first arrived at Manchester United."
Dejan Lu said, walking towards the locker room.
Ferguson stood where he was.
As a top coach, he trusts his instincts.
The smiling French guy gave him a feeling of incomprehension, which made him very annoying.
He could easily guess what the previous opponents Graham or Grealish were thinking.
After more than ten seconds, Ferguson shook his head.
No big deal.
After you get familiar with it, you will know what style the French guy is. Rather than guessing here, it is a waste of life.
He smiled and clapped his hands as he walked into the locker room.
This relaxed the atmosphere in the locker room a lot.
The midfield of every game is tantamount to a trial for them. At least this action means that the coach is in a good mood.
"You performed well today against your old rivals. This is Arsenal..."
Ferguson said with a smile.
The next second he said again, "But you have to know that this is a team in 12th place. If this can satisfy you, then you will only be at the same level as Arsenal."
These words made many people nervous.
"In the second half I hope you can put more pressure on Arsenal, especially on the right side of defense."
Ferguson said.
Kanchelskis nodded.
Ferguson sat down and the Manchester United players breathed a sigh of relief.
"I picked up a chick a few days ago and want to keep it as a pet, but what should I do if it doesn't obey me?"
Scholes whispered.
"Chickens are stupid and poop everywhere."
The old captain Robson said.
He lived on the farm until the age of six, when he moved to Chester Street.
"I think chicks are pretty good, and when they grow up, you can eat them depending on the situation."
Steve·Bruce said.
"You guy, how could you do this to a pet!"
David·Mei complained, "That is a young man's pet."
"What about pets? Disobedient pets should be served." Steve·Bruce muttered.
"I put it on the side of the chicken steak, and it feels a lot more honest."
Scholes said.
Many people laughed out loud.
"Actually, if you want to keep a pet parrot, it's very good. It can live a long time."
Sharp said, "When I was dating the female anchor, she said that a guest's parrot was raised by his grandfather before, and he also said a lot of swear words, FXXK ME YES..."
The laughter in the locker room grew even louder.
Dejan Lu remembered a hell joke.
Foreign girls keep calling them like this just to reassure their boyfriends.
So as not to worry about being raped by them.
Damn it, these days you can rape someone even if you don't touch them, but the world has still become something you don't recognize.
As the fifteen-minute break ended, players from both sides returned to the court again.
Ferguson was directly replaced with Beckham and Paolo·Ince.
For Manchester United now, creativity has overflowed, and defense is the most important issue.
Even Beckham didn't have many opportunities to show his passing ability. He spent more time chasing back at random.
In the second half, it was Manchester United's kick-off.
Cole took the ball and gave it to Beckham on the wing. Beckham received the ball and was observing Dejan Lu's position. He immediately twisted around and moved laterally without waiting for Merson to press forward.
The ball flew directly from the right to the left. Dejan Lu raised his outer instep to remove the ball. Ray Parrott wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to steal it directly.
But Dejan Lu immediately moved the ball forward with his right foot, and the ball just passed through Parrott's diverged feet.
It went right through his little door.
Parrott turned around and stretched out his hand in anger.
I want to hold Dejan Lu's arm.
However, Dejan Lu thought that this might be the case when he passed the ball. He deliberately did not swing his arm when he started, allowing Parrott to catch the opportunity.
Premier League players like to use their hands too much.
Martin·Keown rushed towards Dejan Lu.
Click——
Dejan Lu pulls back immediately with his left foot. This is a small cow's tail.
Although the action was completed before Keown came up, it would not have the effect of deceiving people's focus, but it still made Keown feel very energetic.
Especially Irwin on the left has come up to respond.
Dejan Lu There are so many choices.
Steve·Morrow felt that Keown couldn't handle it, so he quietly pressed forward from the flank.
Dejan Lu suddenly moved the ball out with his left foot again. Keown immediately followed suit, but the next second he knew he had been cheated.
Cow tail!!!
Dejan Lu hooked the ball back with his left foot.
Fuck, at this moment Martin·Keown felt like all the blood in his body was rushing to his head.
Damn, this bastard!
I deliberately showed him a passing move before using the passing move.
But at this time, he couldn't adjust his center of gravity and could only watch Dejan Lu dribbling the ball away from him.
Steve·Morrow, who still wanted to make a sneak attack, suddenly accelerated towards Dejan Lu, and Bould in the penalty area also chose to rush out of the penalty area.
Dejan Lu didn't care much. While running, he smashed the ball sideways and pretended to return to the left. However, he rubbed the ball with the outside of his right foot to the right.
The forward Redondo didn't get the ball but attracted some defensive attention, making it impossible for Morrow to chase back.
Beckham noticed that Dejan Lu stood still on Arsenal's back line and immediately understood what Dejan Lu meant.
He took a step to the left and sent a pass in front of Steve Morrow.
Sure enough, Dejan Lu and Andy Cole started at the same time.
Dejan Lu, who rushed to the penalty area, took off and held the ball with his chest. Toni·Adams, who took off a step slower, failed to touch the ball. The Arsenal captain still bumped Dejan Lu on purpose.
Dejan Lu exerted force on his waist and abdomen to keep himself from falling. He immediately turned around and raised his right foot.
Adams fell to the ground again and was a step too slow to block. The ball quickly passed by him. David·Seaman also failed to fall to the ground immediately. The ball quickly rolled into the right side of the goal.
As soon as the second half kicked off, Manchester United changed the score again.
Many Manchester United fans who went to buy snacks cheered along with other fans before they even had time to sit down.
This is Dejan Lu.
This is their Number Seven.
There is never any garbage time in his game.
If there is a boring situation on the court, it means Dejan Lu has been substituted!
"Ryan, come out directly!"
Ferguson rushed to the fourth official and shouted, "Substitute, let's substitute!"
Giggs stood up and looked at Brian·Kidd and asked, "I haven't warmed up yet, have I?"
"It's okay. It's the same when you warm up on the court."
Kidd patted Giggs on the back and said.
Giggs:...
The same goes for God fucking coming to the court to warm up.
Arsenal players are so fierce, they may not have their legs directly tackled.
But he had no more choice and could only walk to the sidelines.
Ferguson patted Giggs on the shoulder and persuaded, "You have been watching for so long today. You should have discovered their problems. Later, go up and continue to beat them on the left."
Giggs nodded.
These words made him feel better, and he stood on the sidelines and did some simple stretching.
"Ferguson replaced Dejan again, using up his last substitution spot."
"Today's Dejan gave me the feeling that he always leaves the opportunity for assists to his teammates. This time he passed Martin·Keown with wonderful on-site teaching and immediately gave the ball to Beckham. If he doesn't have the ability to get past Arsenal's defense, even my neighbor's 3-year-old son will not believe it."
"So it's hard to imagine what kind of teammates would hate Dejan. While he is great, he is also a very selfless player. He has previously provided 3 assists to McClair in a single game. He has assisted 9 goals for McClair alone."
Dejan Lu sat back on the bench after coming off the field.
The second half just started and he didn't even break a sweat.
Ferguson stopped standing on the sidelines and simply sat back on the coaching bench, stretched his head forward and said, "There won't be any trouble in today's game, but Ajax will still be a difficult opponent next."
"I understand coach."
At this time, Ajax is quite luxurious.
Rijkaard are all back to playing football.
Schmeichel versus Van der Sar can be regarded as a war between two generations of the Red Devils goalkeepers.
Even the Serie A giants couldn't say they were better than Ajax's lineup. Before Bosman ruling's verdict, Eredivisie's strong team was so outrageous.
The Netherlands itself has enough talents, plus a few outstanding foreign players, it is almost an enhanced version of Netherlands National Team.
The game ended with Arsenal receiving two red cards and Manchester United scoring four goals.
After the game, Dejan Lu and Ferguson attended the press conference together.
The professor still maintained his demeanor, which made Ferguson a little disappointed.
The reporters felt that he was trying to show off his strength and pointed the finger at Wenger.
"Is 4:0 the change you brought to Arsenal, Arsène?"
"You're here because you know the Arsenal vice-chairman, right?"
"What do you think you will achieve at Arsenal, Mr. Wenger?"
"Arsène, what are your expectations for Arsenal, is it a team that will compete for the title?"
"..."
The professor smiled and took the microphone and said, "I am not standing here because I am a good friend of the Arsenal vice-chairman. I am standing here because the Arsenal board of directors believes that I have the ability to work here, and I will prove that their decision is correct. As for my expectations for the team, I can't say it directly, but I will make Arsenal what the fans want to see."
This statement obviously did not satisfy the reporters.
"4:0 is what the fans want to see?"
The reporter asked politely.
The professor still said with a smile, "We lost to Manchester United, or it is more accurate to say that we lost to Dejan. I don't want to criticize my players because they faced a player who could not be guarded. You can see Baresi or Bergomi were also very embarrassed when facing Dejan. After Dejan came off the field, Manchester United couldn't score, which also shows that the gap between us and Manchester United is not that big."
Ferguson's brows jumped.
Oh shit!
If he has two bullets, shoot the Frenchman once in the left temple and once from the right.
You can still say this after losing.
Why don't you reverse Manchester United at the press conference?
Ferguson said, "Dejan is a Manchester United player. There is no Manchester United after Dejan comes off the field. I don't think there is any problem with Dejan playing."
The professor shrugged at Ferguson.
This expression made Ferguson a little annoyed, and he asked directly, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't think you are very chic like this."
"I have nothing to say. If Dejan doesn't play, Arsenal will have a chance."
The professor smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, next season we meet for the first time, how about you don't let Dejan enter the big list?"
Just when Ferguson was about to agree, Dejan Lu kicked him.
The professor is really interesting.
This in itself is unfair.
His research on Ferguson is deeper than Ferguson's understanding of him.
Arsenal this season can't even see the professor's tactical thinking, after all, he took over halfway.
If Dejan the Football King is not allowed to enter the squad for the encounter next season, Manchester United may suffer a big loss because they are not familiar with the opponent's playing style.
Ferguson calmed down and glared at the professor without continuing to speak.
This press conference turned into a one-man show for the professor.
The next day the newspapers were full of reports about the French posturing.
After losing, he also said that he wanted the fans to see the changes in the team.
Dejan Lu saw the news they reposted from Dutch media on the third edition of "The Times".
Rijkaard said in an interview, "I was not very happy playing in Italy, but it is completely different when I return to Ajax. We have already reached the semi-finals, so our next goal is only one, and that is the championship!"
Dejan Lu smiled and shook his head. He wanted to win the championship. Have he asked Dejan the Football King...
