"Any result in the opening stages of the league is meaningless, because at this time the league has not yet entered a state of fierce competition, plus other teams do not understand the Notts County style, it is normal to be exploited by them, so even if they are now at the top of the table, they will be beaten very quickly, or even slowly fall into the relegation zone."

The Southampton boss looked confident in his pre-match interview.

'What if they beat Manchester United, we at Southampton did the same, and we're going to give the promoted Notts County team a good idea of the Premier League and make them understand the cruelty of competition, maybe they would have appreciated it earlier!'

"Don't think that Southampton's defeat to Notts County in the FA Cup final last season means that we are not as strong as Notts County, in a fair play environment, Southampton can definitely beat Notts County, we will make them pay for their despicable behavior, people are watching, no one administers justice for us, we use our strength to find justice that belongs to us!"

At the mention of last season's FA Cup final, the expression on Strachan's face immediately turned angry and his tone became angry.

Journalists just want to see this kind of hot scene, and if both teams are touting each other, hello, hello, everyone, it's not interesting.

Southampton are not convinced, and Notts County will certainly not give up the victory, so this is destined to be a battle of the dragons.

However, it seems that this word is not appropriate, at least in terms of strength, Notts County is stronger than Southampton to a certain extent, and the gap is not small.

As long as you follow the FA Cup final, you know that at that time, Notts County caught up with the lowest point of last season, the whole team suffered from the flu, half of the players fell, and finally Loew had no choice but to urgently transfer players from the academy to play the FA Cup final, even in this case, Notts County can beat the opponent, you can imagine the difference in strength between the two teams.

That's right, Southampton defeated Manchester United in the last round of the league, but it was in Strachan that arranged a defensive counterattack routine, and then met Manchester United in the painful period, only to get a difficult victory, if they dare to play against the attack, maybe what the result is!

The game between Notts County and Manchester United was completely different, Notts County took the initiative throughout the game, and most of the time Manchester United could only resist cautiously, and the 5-0 score nailed this Manchester United to the shame post.

Is there a comparability between the two?

Strachan: This is his own tricks!

When the reporter interviewed Loew, the German coach said with disdain: See the real chapter on the field.

The domineering is unobstructed, and it seems that Southampton is not taken into account at all.

The war was on the verge of breaking out, and the clouds were thick before the war.

With the Notts County game being played a little later, the results of the rest of the Premier League fixtures were also fresh before the game began.

With Chelsea winning and Claudio Ranieri's side beating Tottenham with four wins and one draw in five games, the Ruble have completely turned their strength on paper into combat.

Manchester United won, Liverpool won, Newcastle won, and apart from Arsenal, all other teams with the title contenders have won.

Yes, Arsenal didn't win, and the Gunners at home to Portsmouth ended their winning streak by a point away from home, and they were still top of the table before the game in Notts County, but they were level on points with Chelsea.

In other words, if Notts County can beat Southampton in this game, then Notts County will be able to sit at the top of the table on their own, without having to share it with others, something that Notts County has not done for almost a century.

The Notts County players who received the good news before the game were elated, and although they were all clear that their goal this season was to win the Premier League, they were still very excited to be able to trample the giants under their feet.

As for the opponent in front of you, Southampton, I'm sorry, you really didn't get us in mind.

At the beginning of the game, Southampton, who was sitting at home, began to press on the attack, the momentum was fierce and like a stormy wave, and the three-board axe was slapped but did not cause much damage to Notts County.

Is their team that bad?

The opponent scored just minutes into the game!

The players on the field also had a dog's expression, as if the chrysanthemum had been exploded, how uncomfortable it was.

Obviously said that he wanted revenge, obviously said that he wanted to leave his opponent off the horse, and clearly said that he was undefeated, how could everything be in vain in the blink of an eye!

For Notts County, it was just a simple counterattack, and there was nothing particularly exciting about it, and Ribery, who scored the goal, only high-fived his opponent and then walked away to his own half as if nothing happened, which simply made the Southampton players angry.

After the restart, Southampton was still unrepentant and played with a desperate onslaught, as if they would not return the game without poking a big hole in the Notts County goal, and even the fans in the stands felt that they should no longer scold these hard-working players.

But the problem is that often many times it is not that you can have a good result if you fight, in the face of absolute strength, everything is just floating clouds.

What is fighting spirit?

In the face of a strong opponent tenaciously and desperately defending, it is called fighting spirit, rather than not knowing how many pounds and taels you have to counterattack the opponent, that is not called fighting spirit, called stupidity.

Since the opponent Southampton is so face-saving, Notts County naturally laughs easily, how can there be a reason to let go of the counterattack, break the ball, dodge the pressing with three feet and two feet, and counterattack twice in a row, although there is no goal, but it also beats Southampton to the heart, slowly retracting and not daring to come up.

The enemy retreats and we advance, this is the consistent strategy of Notts County, and this time it is their turn to fight around the opponent.

Because the score is already ahead, Notts County can easily face it, and when they take into account the defense, they can play slowly and logically, and if they can't play, they must control the ball and not give the opponent a chance to counterattack.

So the half-time drill began again.

At the end of the first half, Notts County were unable to extend their lead, but they were able to brush up on almost 80 per cent of the possession, which was like playing monkey tricks. (To be continued.) )
