Chapter 229: Poor Starter List

'We've only seen half of the Notts County first-team players training at the training ground! It's absolutely true that Notts County players have had the flu! ”

"Fake!"

"We also interviewed Notts County players who are taking a break at the hospital!"

"Fake!"

'We've got the squad that's been rumored within Notts County to prove that the players who have the flu can't play!'

"Fake!"

……

No matter what the facts are proved by the reporters, the Southampton boss has invariably directly denied that he is stubbornly convinced that Notts County is disrupting Southampton with smoke bombs.

Well, for a severe patient who is persecuted and paranoid, the reporters decided not to argue with him.

Co-authoring others is trying to lie to you!

This person's psychology is really difficult to understand, and the manager of Southampton in front of him is a good example, always using himself as a template to consider others, isn't this such a result!

Journalists are well aware that the Southampton manager is the most popular manager in the entire Premier League who likes to put smoke bombs before the game, and there is no one.

Today, the team's main midfielder was injured unexpectedly in training and was unable to play;

Tomorrow, the main striker's family puppy will be produced, and the game will be on leave;

The day after tomorrow, the main goalkeeper went to the hospital to cut **** and couldn't play for two weeks;

There are a lot of strange reasons.

Not only that, but even the ordinary smoke bombs, the most disgraceful thing is that they often use the dense schedule as an excuse to claim not to send the main lineup, but when it comes to the game, Nima has a lot of main forces.

With his psychology but speculating on others, this is not all smoke bombs!

"Notts County's behaviour is a bit disgraceful, and although this is the final title race, why not fight seriously on the pitch and play these little tricks! Maybe Notts County felt that their chances of winning were not good, so they made this decision! ”

The Southampton boss has just denied all kinds of evidence to criticize Notts County for setting off smoke bombs, which reporters are not afraid to surprise at all, but the most surprising thing is that this is not the end.

"Our captain suffered a little injury in the pre-match training with his team-mates, so we will send young players to take his place, and hopefully the young players can withstand the pressure on the big field!" The Southampton boss said with some regret.

The reporters below were so shocked by him that they couldn't speak in surprise.

It's also a bit too much

Three seconds ago, the righteous words made out of nothing, and the strong words criticized others for setting off smoke bombs, and three seconds later, Nima came out like this, why are you so thick-skinned!

These reporters who concoct news all day long think that they are shameless enough, but in the face of the Southampton manager, they are still a little inadequate.

In particular, the Southampton manager's expression is simply a feeling that he can deceive himself, and it is really worth learning for decades.

When the Southampton manager's words reached Notts County, they were already in a dark cloud.

Okay, you're going to assume that Notts County is setting off a smoke grenade, and then we'll see how powerful this smoke grenade really is.

The day before the game, when the Notts County squad was announced, the Southampton boss was a little dumbfounded.

Alonso is not there, Villa is not there, Ribery is not there, Lahm is not there, almost half of the squad is not there, and there are several substitutes missing.

It's clear that the flu in Notts County wasn't a smoke bomb they put off, but they were really unlucky.

The Southampton boss immediately felt that the whole person was not good.

He was afraid of the strength of Notts County, so the pre-match drills were all defensive counter-attacking tactics.

All this thought was in vain.

Notts County may not even be able to get together a main lineup now, and they still need a fart counterattack, just attack directly.

But the problem is that they haven't practiced positional attacks at all in the past few days, and they didn't start by relying on positional attacks, so it's not their strong point at all.

The Southampton boss already hated those journalists, so why not come up with more evidence to prove that there was a real flu outbreak in Notts County, so that he would be able to arrange targeted tactics that would be better than catching them now.

However, if those reporters were to know about his complaints, I am afraid that one of them would pick up a brick and throw it on his head.

Tineema is shameless!

Obviously, we said so much evidence is good or not, Yafei gritted her teeth and insisted on not believing it, who is to blame!

After getting the squad, the Southampton manager stayed up late to design tactics against Notts County, and the next day he held a tactical meeting with the players with black circles, which was called exhaustion.

Attack, God wants to win, so he gave Notts County a flu, and if you can't win the game, you're sorry for God's gift.

Before the game even started, the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff was almost full, and it was clearly divided.

Nearly 30,000 fans walked into the stadium at Southampton for the Saints and more than 20,000 for Notts County, and with some neutral fans in Wales, it was no surprise that the stands were filled.

At this time, Notts County's starting list was also obtained by reporters, and compared to the real main lineup of Notts County, it was simply speechless.

The starting striker was Di Natale, and the team's two strikers were both ill before the game, but Di Natale was lighter, and even if he came back before the game, he entered the starting lineup, otherwise, Loew would have to let the veteran Hubnel play in an emergency.

The two wings, Andres Iniesta and Kuyt, had no problem playing, but the main striker Sneijder was not in the squad and was obviously recuperating, and his place was replaced by Cazorla.

Alonso was not in the squad, and naturally did not make the starting line-up, and there was no suspense in the combination of the two midfielders, with Mereles partnering Mascherano.

Abidal started at left-back, and Leiton Baines was not in the squad and was presumably a victim of the flu.

The centre-backs were better, with Westerman on the flu and Lescott able to replace him, forming a central defence with Carvalho.

The right wing-back was the most surprising, starting with teenager Sergio Ramos.

Lahm was recuperating from the flu, and substitute right wing-back Sagna also failed to escape the virus and collapsed.

With three of the four full-backs down, Loew had no one to use and had to bite the bullet to push Ramos up, and with a youngster under the age of 18 in such a tournament, God knows if he can withstand the pressure.

The main goalkeeper Diego Lopes is not in the squad, and the starter is Ben Foster, which is the most reassuring part of Loew, Ben Foster is a big player, and he will definitely not drop the chain at critical moments.

That's it for Notts County, a starting list that people can't look at. (To be continued.) )
