Chapter 597： secret weapon

Latest website: On the evening of September 15, Inonu Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, Ferguson raised his hands high and let out a roar with all his strength, excitedly celebrating Manchester United's hard-won victory.

Zero to one, the scoreboard shows the final result of the game.

Red Devils Manchester United beat Turkey's Besiktas 1-0 with Scholes' key lore.

This victory is a good start to the Champions League group stage this season!

But more importantly, Ferguson's rotation was successful in this game.

Van der Sar is still recovering from injury, and the goal is played by Foster.

But Ferguson made major rotations and adjustments to other positions.

The first is the right back. Veteran Gary Neville replaced O'Shea, and center defender Evans replaced Ferdinand. In midfield, Carrick, Fletcher and other main midfielders were rotated. Scholes, Park Zhixing and Anderson started. In front are the tridents of Nani, Owen and Valencia.

It can be said that this is the remnants of Manchester United.

But with this lineup, Manchester United defeated Besiktas, and Valencia on the right was extremely active.

25 million euros, when Ferguson introduced the winger, everyone thought it was too exaggerated and too expensive.

But now, it's really worth it!

High-quality products, must be high-quality products.

Valencia created the most threats to Manchester United in the game, and was also the best player in the game. He won the man of the game after the game, but it was Nani on the left who assisted Scholes to score. .

Sometimes, football games are like that.

But to be able to win Besiktas away, Ferguson is quite satisfied.

From the moment the game whistle sounded, he laughed from ear to ear, and directly wrote his satisfaction, and even hilarious joy, on his face, so that everyone could easily see what he was doing at this moment. Feeling.

In fact, he really qualifies for satisfaction.

Because of the remnants of the expedition to Turkey, Manchester United recharged for the weekend derby, but who would have thought that Manchester United would still beat Besiktas away, which surprised Ferguson.

The so-called surprise is the unexpected harvest.

Ferguson was mentally prepared for a draw away, or even a small loss, but he didn't expect to win.

"Gao Shen, I'm ready, just waiting for you to come to the door!" Ferguson said with pride.

…

A 1-0 away win over Besiktas, Ferguson was very high-profile in his post-match press conference.

On the one hand, he praised Antonio Valencia for his excellent performance, believing that he has everything to be a world-class winger, creating the most threats in the audience, but a little less luck.

On the other hand, Ferguson said that the team's rotation is to better cope with multi-line operations.

"Anyone who is familiar with the Champions League knows that the expedition to Turkey is very difficult, but today, our players overcame this difficulty and not only gained more advantages on the scene, but also defeated the opponent in the score."

"For me, there is no better outcome than this."

For the weekend's derby in the same city, Ferguson said in a high-profile manner that Manchester United are ready.

"I never cared how many victories my neighbours have won, it means nothing to me because at Old Trafford, any streak would have to stop."

Ferguson said he was never worried about Manchester City.

"I used to say they were like a rowdy neighbor, and I still say that."

"This is not the first time Manchester City have made big signings, they spent a lot of money last season and did well for a while, but what about the result? They finished tenth in the league and they lost at Old Trafford. two **** for us."

Ferguson said, "If you can win the championship by throwing money, then you don't have to play the game. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to see who has more money? Why so hard?"

The implication is that Ferguson is still sarcastic and sarcastic at Manchester City, believing that the other party is a mercenary piled up by money.

For the first city derby of the season, Ferguson said that at Old Trafford, Manchester United will show the level of a veteran team and the spirit of Manchester United.

"We will crush our opponents!"

…

For Ferguson's war of words in Istanbul, Gao Shen ignored it from beginning to end.

He is more concerned about Manchester United's performance in this game, as well as the rotation.

After Manchester United played Besiktas, the coaching staff began to synthesize information from all aspects, speculating on Manchester United's preparations for the sixth round of the Premier League, especially the lineup.

Obviously, Ferguson has almost kept his elite in Manchester.

"First of all, exclude some of the starting lineup in Turkey, especially those players who played the whole game, such as Park Ji-sung and Valencia, these two players played the whole game." Lucas analyzed.

"If there is no accident, there will be only Carrick, Sneijder and Fletcher in the midfield."

This should be the starting lineup that Ferguson focused on, with both offense and defense, in line with the requirements of Ferguson's home game.

"If you are on the right, O'Shea will start. In the middle, Ferdinand will definitely replace Evans and partner with Vidic. There is no better candidate on the left. It should still be Evra."

Manchester United's left flank will be a big problem at the moment, as Evra has no substitute.

Ferguson tried to arrange the Brazilian teenager Fabio to play this position, but his performance was not particularly satisfactory. In addition, Evra was too durable and had a high attendance rate, resulting in the teenager not getting more training opportunities.

In contrast, there are more people on the right, such as Brown, Rafael, O'Shea, and Fabio also plays on the right.

"Judging from the away game against Besiktas, Evra is obviously holding back. He should also have the strength to play the derby in the same city. We must be prepared for this." Carlo reminded.

What Evra is right is exactly Manchester City's right.

Robben just came off the bench for more than 20 minutes in the game against Arsenal, scored twice and contributed an assist, and created three goals. It can be said that he played the best game since joining Manchester City.

After a week of recharge, no one can guarantee how amazing Robben will be on this side.

More importantly, Manchester United left Evra also made a long expedition to Turkey.

It goes up and down, and if Manchester City attack Manchester United's left flank, that's perfectly normal.

"In the middle, if Sneijder starts, there will be a Berbatov in front, so that the pressure on Wayne Rooney can be shared to the maximum extent, and both centers can have the ball, which will be a big boost to Manchester United's offense. "

Rooney and Berbatov both have a strong ability to hold the ball with their backs. There are passers such as Carrick and Sneijder in the midfield, and their role can play the greatest threat.

Moreover, Ferguson left in Manchester players, there is a Giggs, the older the more monster.

As a tactician, Ferguson must have formulated a detailed game strategy early on, so he will rotate when he faces Besiktas, and he is still so strong.

Now, his rotation has proven to be a success.

Next, look at the battle at Old Trafford.

Everyone expressed their opinions and expressed their views on Manchester United and the game.

Gao Shen sat silently in his seat and listened quietly.

This is his usual habit.

He was used to listening to the ideas of his assistants before finally giving his own opinion.

This is already the norm for Gao Shen and his assistants to hold meetings to discuss issues.

"Gao, how are you going to play this game?"

Following Carlo's question, everyone turned their attention to Gao Shen.

Yeah, how would you like to kick?

"Our advantage is not in the middle. We can't fight with the opponent in the middle. Instead, we should actively expand the width when attacking to create more one-on-one attacking opportunities for the wing players."

Everyone nodded.

Manchester City have an advantage in the flanks, but not in the middle.

Although both David Silva and Rakitic have the ability to plug in, they are not capable of attacking.

Suarez is not the kind of center who can smash through a channel by himself. He is more known for his dexterity.

"What we are thinking now, Ferguson must be thinking, he will definitely take targeted measures in time."

The coaches all nodded.

Ferguson's tactical attainments have reached the point of perfection, and he will not leave such a big flaw for himself.

"Our two wingers will be their main target, he will not give us one-on-one opportunities easily, so I guess Manchester United will probably adopt a tactical play similar to the three-backed midfielder, and it will be better than Arsenal. more rigorous."

Against the Gunners, Gao Shen was replaced by Robben after Wenger removed his three midfielders.

There's no reason Ferguson couldn't see that.

"I'm even thinking that he probably won't play Giggs, but let Anderson play, because Anderson was substituted midway in Turkey." Gao Shen guessed.

Many people say that Gao Shen regards Manchester City as his tactical board and laboratory, but why isn't Ferguson using Manchester United as his tactical board and laboratory? And it has been for many years.

In the past life, many people were asking, why did these Manchester United players win the championship in the hands of Ferguson, but they can't play with others?

At the end of the day, Ferguson's amazing tactical prowess is the key.

It's like putting together Lego blocks. With the same blocks, some people can't spell something, but some people can spell a complete model. It's purely a matter of personal ability.

"As you said, what should we do?" Carlo asked with concern.

Everyone also looked at Gao Shen with concern.

They all know that since Gao Shen said it, there must be a way to solve the problem.

"Don't fight with Manchester United, use our advantage of passing and controlling the ball. Since they like to stare at our wingers so much, let them stare and use the wingers to contain them."

Everyone was at a loss, what is this?

Isn't the winger Manchester City's sharpest attacking weapon?

Gao Shen smiled confidently, "Just wait and see, it's time for our secret weapon to debut!"

Everyone was stunned.

Manchester City have a secret weapon?

How come they don't know?
