Chapter 1044 Initiation and Pacification

Gao Xiaodong did not speak much in the pre-match press conference, but it was extremely provocative, and his words also caused a heated argument among fans of Barcelona and Manchester United on the Internet.

Manchester United fans think that Gao Xiaodong does not talk much, domineering and confident, and such players are needed before the game to boost morale.

Some Manchester United fans believe that a player like Gao Xiaodong is the best choice for Manchester United captain, and Ferguson should not hesitate to establish Gao Xiaodong as the leader and captain of Manchester United.

Barcelona fans denounced Gao Xiaodong for being vulgar, rude, arrogant, and lacking at least respect for his opponents.

Barcelona is going to slap Gao Xiaodong in the face on Manchester United's doorstep today and win the Champions League trophy.

While fans were arguing online, Ferguson was talking to the players from room to room in the hotel, telling them their place in today's Champions League final and reassuring the players who didn't make the starting line-up. ”

In order to line up today's starting line-up, Ferguson can be said to have exhausted his brains, and one or two positions were not determined until today's adaptation training.

At today's press conference, Ferguson did play a psychological war with Pep Guardiola. Everyone knows that Barcelona's offense is good, and they all know that Manchester United eliminated Barcelona in 08 and adopted defensive counterattack tactics, and most people would never have imagined that Manchester United would attack with Barcelona in this game.

But Pep Guardiola is also a world-class manager, and Ferguson feared that he would take this into account, so he publicly said it at a press conference to confuse Guardiola.

Ferguson's attacking style of play is of course different from Barcelona's, which is to control the ball at his feet, mobilize opponents, find holes in the opponent's defence, or let the superstar tear apart the opponent's defense through his own breakthroughs.

Ferguson's offense, on the other hand, refers to taking the initiative, pressing all over the court, and quickly attacking after a steal.

To meet this tactical requirement, Ferguson ditched the sloppy Berbatov up front and partnered Hernandez and Wayne Rooney, with United's regular midfield line-up consisting of Gao Xiaodong, Fletcher or Paul Scholes, plus two wing-backs of Nani and Valencia.

But Nani's defense was not good and his running was not active enough, and in order to implement his own tactics, Ferguson put Nani on the bench as well.

After Ferguson announced the starting line-up to the players, Berbatov and Nani, who did not make the starting line-up, were unhappy.

However, manager Alex Ferguson is a strongman, his godson David Beckham was ousted from Manchester United, and Berbatov and Nani dare not express any dissatisfaction.

After Ferguson's conversation, Nani went to Gao Xiaodong's room.

Gao Xiaodong, like several veteran players, enjoyed a single room, and saw Nani coming over dejectedly, Gao Xiaodong was not surprised, he knew that it must have been Ferguson who told him about the substitute, but Gao Xiaodong pretended not to know, and said: "Nani, why are you here?

Nani sighed and said, "I can't sleep, and I'm not in the mood. ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled: "It's normal to can't sleep, why are you not in the mood." ”

Nani said: "I don't believe you don't know, I may not be able to play, I play as a substitute. ”

Gao Xiaodong pretended to be surprised and said, "No, you usually play the main force." ”

Nani said indignantly: "That's why I'm uncomfortable, if I'm usually a substitute, this time it's okay to be a substitute, but I'm usually the main force, but when it comes to this kind of competition, I can't figure it out." ”

Gao Xiaodong said solemnly: "It's true, no one can stand it, but why did the coach do this, does he really want to score with Barcelona?"

Nani said: "Xiaodong, you're right, the coach just doesn't want to play defensive counterattacks, just now the lord told me that this time we won't be the same as in 08, we want to beat Barcelona with offense." ”

Gao Xiaodong sighed: "As soon as you say that, I just remembered that the coach was indeed different from the original when he was training in the past two days, and he used more high-level pressing and full-court pressing." If that's the case, you're really not suitable, you need to be able to run, experienced. ”

Nani said indignantly, "Xiaodong, isn't the coach a little confused, what kind of attack is he playing with Barcelona, and the defensive counterattack has done Barcelona once, just continue to use it this time." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "That being said, but Wembley Stadium is half of our home stadium, and it is pressed by Barcelona to play, and it will be Alexander, besides, the last time we eliminated Barcelona with a defensive counterattack, Guardiola didn't have a good way to crack it." ”

Nani sighed and said, "I understand, but it's hard to accept it in my heart. ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Don't be discouraged, always be ready to play, no one knows what will happen on the field." ”

Nani didn't actually want to do anything, mainly because she was in a bad mood, so she asked Gao Xiaodong to talk about it to relieve her boredom, and said: "I'm a professional player, and I'm definitely ready to play." ”

Nani got angry and talked to Gao Xiaodong, under Gao Xiaodong's quiet comfort, Nani's anger disappeared a little, and she went back to her room for a nap with a lot of emotion.

While Nani was looking for Gao Xiaodong, Berbatov also came to Vidic's room.

Berbatov and Vidic are both core players of Manchester United's continental faction, and the relationship between the two is also good, Berbatov did not mix with the starter, he was in a bad mood, and he made it clear to Vidic that since Ferguson does not trust him so much, then there is no need for him to continue to stay at Manchester United next season.

Vidic knew about the starting lineup, but he didn't expect Berbatov to react so strongly, because in the second half of the league, Berbatov's starting line was not so solid, but Berbatov didn't say anything, what happened this time?

Vidic is not as skillful as Gao Xiaodong's speech, he directly criticized Berbatov as the captain, "Dimita, your emotions are not right, is it your main force every time, you are so old, isn't it normal to play as a substitute?"

When Berbatov heard this, he became angry and asked: "This can be the same, this is the Champions League final that fans all over the world are concerned about.

Vidic said displeasedly: "I don't argue with you, Dimita, I think you should continue to prepare, you shouldn't just sulk, and don't just say anything that is not conducive to the unity of the team." If it reaches the ears of the lord, the lord will definitely be angry. ”

"What if you're angry, what's if you're not angry, forget it, don't talk about it, I'll go back and rest. Berbatov originally wanted to get a little comfort from Vidic, but he didn't expect Vidic to put up a captain's stand to count him, Berbatov was very unhappy, and said: Now the coach doesn't pay attention to my status in the team is not high, it's really time to think about next season.
