Chapter Ninety-Four: Look Away
Recently, I was watching a Milan version of "Palace Scheming", which is really repeated, the peaks and loops are turning, the total is oppressed, the total resigned, the total was suddenly received by the emperor, and the total did not resign, and the total and the princess have been standing side by side since then...... This scene simply stunned me and other overseas people, Milanelori's intrigue on the transformation of power is even more exciting than the series produced by TVB, you must watch it.
But the only thing that surprised me was that the horse team chose to fire at the total at this time, and stood on the side of Princess Barbara, which was really unexpected by everyone.
While I don't know why the 27-year-old friendship between the team and the team suddenly became unrecognizable, I can actually try to analyze the team's thoughts at this critical moment.
If you want to say hatred, it must be wrong, although the dissatisfaction of the horse team and others drove away Pirlo, drove away Nesta, and drove away Ambu, but everyone understands that the expulsion of these meritorious veterans, and even the forced early retirement of the horse team, these behaviors are not from the original intention of the bald, even the conservative accusation of Allegri is just a puppet, the real reason is that the emperor Berlusconi is unwilling to invest money, he needs Milan to streamline finances and be self-reliant, As a result, veterans with high salaries and at the end of their careers naturally became the first targets to go under the knife.
In Pirlo's case, selling him to Juventus was certainly a big mistake in terms of athletics, but it was not an incomprehensible decision in terms of business.
So to say that the horse team was dissatisfied because he drove away those old teammates who fought side by side with him back then must be underestimating the horse team's heart. It also underestimates the IQ of plus baldness.
But why is it that the team does not yet hold a position at the club, even if there are rumors that he will be the technical manager, it is entirely under the jurisdiction of Galliani, and why should he take the risk of creating a bald rebellion?
We can actually see a little clue from the words and deeds of the horse team in the past.
As a veteran of the team and an important member of the past 30 years, the team's love for Milan is undoubted, and he is also the first to stand up and criticize the famous house of Pei Bald's shrinking finances and unwillingness to continue to invest in Milan. So for that afterglow Milan fell apart. He was very sad, but there was nothing he could do.
So here, we can divide the horse team into radicals.
And if we look back at the addition of baldness, we will also find out. If placed in the Ming Dynasty. This girl is definitely the best candidate for the commander of the Jinyi Guard. First, he was faithful enough. Second, he was faithful enough; Third. He's so loyal! Galliani and Silvio Berlusconi have been playing side by side for more than 30 years, even older than most of Milan's current players, in terms of ability, he has; As for the wrist, he has; He has more connections, but what he left the deepest impression on people is his obedience to Berlusconi and never abandoning him - Mr. Bei has experienced ups and downs in Italian politics, and in the most difficult time, he even sold his company to support him!
Having traveled to business partners all over the world, we can firmly conclude that there is nothing else to do with a good friend like Jia Bald who treats the broken arm as a lifelong career.
For Bei Bald's decision, Jia Bald has always raised his hands in favor: Bei Bald wants to create momentum and gather fame, he has brought Weah, Basten, Sheva, Kaka, and Rui to Milan, making Milan star-studded and watched; He abandoned Pirlo for Milan, forced Maldini back, and was infamous but never complained of being tired.
The loyal dogs in this world, those who are loyal enough will never have the ability to add baldness, and those who are capable cannot compare to his loyalty, in fact, even I dare not imagine, without baldness, how many days can Milan last? I can say with certainty that by the day he did leave, Berlusconi would have made up his mind to sell Milan.
So here, we can definitely define the bald party as a royalist, or also a conservative party.
When the radical Maldini met the Conservative Party, this was the root cause of the disagreement.
Maldini rebelled, not to force Gabald to step down, his purpose is actually to have a certain say in the club, so as to contribute to the revival of Milan, but he also understands that if Gabald does not leave for a day, he will carry out Beibald's financial philosophy to the end, without money, Milan will never have a place in the world football world where capital is invaded by today.
As the eldest princess of the Bei family, Barbara of course hopes to be in power, and everything is controlled by herself, but the old housekeeper is relying on her seniority and refuses to let go of power.
Therefore, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess handed an olive branch to the lonely horse team, and the horse team immediately found a strong object to attach to, at this time he would not care about the 27-year guest-host friendship, nor would he ignore the fact that Jia Bald was actually carrying the black pot for the emperor, what he wanted was just to borrow the "potential" of the eldest princess and seize the "power" of the big housekeeper.
So we were fortunate to see another side of the horse team that has always shown the face of loyalty, and at the same time, we were fortunate to appreciate the thrilling "palace scheming" of Milan.
It's still the same sentence, it's gone, this time it's really out of sight, it turns out that foreigners play power, and they don't have to be bad at all for our Qing Palace!
Speaking of looking away, in fact, we have to mention Lord Fu in this book.
In the past ten years in world football, Wenger and Ferguson are both well-known for their good looks, and almost more than 80% of the players in their photos have become famous characters, which has also laid a good foundation for their status in the rivers and lakes.
But after the 21st century, Wenger's vision is still there, but the old man seems to be looking away more and more because of his age.
There are many people who think that Veron is the biggest parallel import in the hands of Lord Fruel, but I have a different opinion. It's not so much that Veron is a parallel import. It is better to say that he is a victim of Ferguson's tactical changes.
Lord Fu relied on the four midfielders and the off-ball running system to dominate the Premier League, and won the honor of the treble, so he was knighted by the royal family, which was not good. But behind the scenery, the lord is very sober, Manchester United's tactics will be popular for two or three years at most, and sooner or later it will be cracked by others, so he is full of a sense of crisis about the future of the team, and all he has been thinking about is how to continuously improve this tactical system and make it continue to improve. Constantly enriched.
So the old lord bought Peron. Because he is better at controlling the ball and grooming the midfield than Ginger, Scholes's strength lies in running and cutting back, while Veron's strength lies in the rhythm and handling of the ball, and Manchester United was strong during the Treble. But in terms of rhythm changes. They were compared to Juventus, who had Qi Bald, and Bayern, who had the likes of Effenberg. It's still a cut off.
Therefore, the old lord is ready to work hard in this regard, so that the team can not only fight and rush, but also be able to confuse the opponent through the change of rhythm. This makes the team's offense more difficult to defend against.
But he didn't expect that Veron was used to handling the ball in a slow-paced environment, while the Premier League is known for its tight rhythm, Manchester United is a representative of high-speed passing and high-speed running, Veron came to Manchester United and played the football that Ferguson wanted him to play, but the other players of Manchester United can only be fast, not slow, they can't keep up with the changes in Veron's rhythm, and they can't understand Ferguson's concept of being fast and slow, so the two sides seem incompatible, and finally make Veron a "big parallel import" in the mouth of the media.
But these people don't want to think about it, if Veron is really a big parallel product, how can Ferguson spend half a season trying to develop him into the core, and even after a year has not abandoned him?
It wasn't until Alex Ferguson decided that his players weren't really fit to play the kind of football that could move opponents through a change of pace that he regretted letting Veron go, but on any occasion he never said that Veron was a "failure" signing.
Because he knew very well in his heart that it was not that Veron was bad, but that his team was not in tune with him, which was like installing a rocket propeller with nine-section variable speed capability on a car that could only run at a constant speed of 300 km/h.
In fact, the real biggest parallel commodity that Lord Fu has seen should be their defender Wes. Brown.
Weiss. Brown's physical attributes are impressive, with a height of 185, a weight of 73kg, excellent jumping, 11 seconds in the 100m, extremely fast reactions, accurate tackles, and a top defender by any of the stats.
However, compared to his strong body, he is extremely fragile psychologically, and he has beaten him countless times due to injuries, and in the 97-98 season, he played 2 games for Manchester United; In the 99-00 season, he missed the whole year; In the 01-02 season, he played 17 games for Manchester United before returning to the injury list, and his highest attendance season for United, which was last year, he played a total of 36 games, on top of that, his highest attendance in the last ten seasons was 22.
I can't find a reason why such a player with great physical talent has almost become a glass man, except for psychological reasons.
But it was such a defender, but he was relied on by Ferguson as a humerus, and when Stam ran away in anger, Lord Ferguson promoted him and David. May partnered in the backline, and after only half a season, Lord Ferdinand had to buy Ferdinand to save the game; Thereafter Daniel. Evans retired, and Lord Freud made him and Gary. Neville tried to take turns on the right flank, and Neville became the captain of Manchester United, with Brown becoming a VIP in the infirmary.
Lord Ferguson has said publicly: "He [Brown] is undoubtedly the best defender at the club in years. This was said after Brown was selected for the national team in 2002, but he was immediately slapped in the face, because Brown then lay in a hospital bed with a broken ankle until 2004, for which he even lost the opportunity to participate in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan.
Lord Fu tried to help him up countless times, but what he reported to the old man was serious injuries again and again, even minor illnesses such as muscle strains, Giggs, who was close to the age of not confused, only needed a week to survive, but he needed to lie in the hospital bed for more than a month.
The name of parallel imports. Absolutely.
The same is true for this game, in fact, Brown has just recovered from a four-month injury and has made seven appearances for the Reds so far this season, while Brown played 11 games for the Reds in the whole of the 2008-2009 season.
The game of Ferguson due to the consideration of the old captain Gary. Neville's age and physical exertion were so intense that he deployed Brown at right wing-back to help guard against Arsenal attacks on the left.
But Lord Ferguson didn't expect that this right-back who had made him look away for ten seasons in a row. But in the end, he became the winner of this game.
When Arsene Wenger arranged for Cesc Fabregas to move up to the front line. The pressure on United from Arsenal's attack increased dramatically, and while Patrice Evra appeared to be in control of Descartes, Cesc Fabregas also had the ability to distribute the ball and play under his playmaker. Van Persie, Nasri and Walcott, who had been in a mess, are back in action. When these people turn it on. United had to devote more energy to caring for them, and the cage they had set up for Descartes began to crack.
It's actually quite simple, when other people are like a pool of stagnant water. United's players can devote most of their energy to blocking Descartes' passes, which makes him powerful and has nowhere to go, but when others open up, United's players will take care of one or the other, leaving Descartes with more space and more opportunities.
Patrice Evra can resist him and prevent him from breaking into the box, but he can't prevent him from passing to others, and his teammates have come to jam Descartes' passing lane, but when Fabregas becomes the core of the pass, his teammates will inevitably choose their positions with Fabregas as the center of gravity, and the marking of Descartes will naturally not be as tight as it was at the beginning.
So Descartes gradually found his own opportunity, and slowly became active under Evra's watching.
Although Patrice Evra's defence was as tough as ever, Descartes slowly spotted a hole in United's backline in the midst of constant testing and running, and that was their right-back Wes. Brown.
As I said before, Wes. Brown has just recovered from a four-month-long injury, his injury this season is the knee ligament, which is an almost incurable condition, every time the ligament is strained, the wear and tear will increase by one point, this tissue is not the same as the skin, the skin can grow again, but the ligaments are consumed every day, the elderly muscles and bones are not good, in fact, it is because of the gradual aging of the elasticity of the ligament, so far, there is no surgery to completely repair the ligament, every ligament injury athlete, The most admonition I received was to "recuperate slowly".
Unless you quit the sports world and no longer do any strenuous sports, how can you talk about "recuperation"?
Therefore, we often hear about athletes with ligament injuries, and some players will even undergo more than a dozen surgeries for the same injury, and eventually leave their careers because the ligaments are completely broken.
Brown is actually worried about this problem, so although he is also running hard in this game, he is still very protective of his knees subconsciously, and whenever there is a fierce confrontation, especially physical contact, he will always subconsciously retreat, in order to prevent himself from recurring the injury and returning to the injury list again.
And Descartes took a fancy to Wes. Brown's timidity in physical contact, you know, as a defender, if he is afraid of physical contact, then his defense is basically equivalent to nothing.
However, whether it was right midfielder Nani or right centreback Ferdinand, they did a good job of protecting Brown, and I think Ferguson specially told them before the game, so in the right-back position, Manchester United was not greatly impacted, and Brown coped with it fairly easily, and did not suffer too much impact.
But when Descartes discovered his weakness, Descartes began to find a way to combat this weakness of Manchester United.
If it is an ordinary player, they will most likely try to create opportunities by breaking through Brown at this time, after all, his actions are timid, and he is definitely a good breakthrough candidate, but Descartes does not think so, he is surrounded by a haunted Evra, if he takes the initiative to impact Brown, Evra will definitely be taken to the right by him, Evra's defensive ability is stronger than Brown, and the two of them squeezed to the right at the same time. Instead, it made United's right-hand defence more secure, which was an act that outweighed the losses.
Our clever protagonist naturally had his own way, he secretly played a color with Nasri, and then ran to the left side of Manchester United, comfortably playing as his "right winger".
According to Arsenal's tactics, when Descartes frequently won the ball on the right flank, Walcoat behind him needed to see the right time to cut in the middle and receive Descartes' passes, and at this point in the game, Cesc Fabregas also appeared in the midfield position. He also likes to plug in the middle. Using long-range shots or through passes to create chances, coupled with a Van Persie who has been stirring up trouble in the box, in an instant, Arsenal piled up three Arsenal players in the middle of the box. This made the hearts of Manchester United's defenders tight. Heavy forces had to be concentrated in the middle. Prevent Arsenal from bursting down the middle.
And at this time on the right flank, Descartes was not alone against Manchester United's left-back Rafael and Patrice Evra, who had been defending him, because he also had right-back Sagna behind him to assist.
Speaking of which. Rafael is not a regular left-back, in fact, in the Manchester United youth team, Rafael's younger brother Fabio is the original left-back, Rafael is more often in the right wing-back position, but Rafael is more stable than Fabio, the two brothers are actually players with balanced left and right feet, so Ferguson sent Rafael to fill Evra's position in this game, and Fabio did not appear in the squad.
A player who was used to playing at right-back was suddenly moved to a left-back position, which was a little uncomfortable anyway, and although Rafael had been solid for the first 80 minutes, when Descartes was determined to tear the gap from him, his performance was inevitably flawed.
In the 83rd minute, Descartes and Sagna made a series of short passes on the side, Evra was a little slow when marking Descartes, Descartes broke through from the sideline to the bottom line, at this time Rafael came up to defend him, Descartes slipped to the bottom line to break through, Raphael's judgment was deviated in an instant, he did not block the ball, nor could he stop Descartes who slipped back from outside the baseline, and was broken behind by Descartes.
Although Patrice Evra, who arrived later, struggled to make a sliding tackle, Descartes still got ahead of Evra to pass the ball, at this time Manchester United's penalty area was crowded, Van Persie, Cesc Fabregas and other defenders and Ferdinand, Vidic and other defenders were all piled up in the middle, but unexpectedly, the ball flew directly over their heads, and then came to the far end of the goal.
It was Wes who defended the far end of the goal. Brown, seeing this pass that seemed to be a little too high, Wes. Brown hesitated, but decided to hold his position and let the ball pass overhead without jumping to fight for the spot.
As a result, when Brown was waiting for the ball to fly out of the bottom line, there was a sudden gust of wind behind him, Brown was startled, hurriedly turned back, and saw Nasri jumping up from behind him, pushing the ball back to the center of the penalty area, and the ball slid over Brown's head again, bringing a sound of wind, which frightened Brown subconsciously shrinking his neck.
Luckily, Rio Ferdinand reacted quickly in the middle of the ball, and the ball fell right into his control as he flicked his neck and pushed the ball out of the box, where Ryan Giggs picked up the ball and launched a surprise attack into the Arsenal half.
Since the goal did not form an attack, it did not cause much alarm to the Manchester United players, but Ferguson on the sidelines seemed to smell something from this attack, and his brow wrinkled unconsciously.
Giggs's counterattack was formed by Tevez after a few passes, but unfortunately the Argentine "beast" was in a hurry, and it was clear that Rooney was in a better position than him, but he chose to do it alone, which made Rooney a little dissatisfied, and the two began to argue on the field while retreating.
At this point, Almunia had already kicked the ball up front, and Cesc Fabregas used his judgment of the landing spot to get the header, and then headed the ball to Walcott next to him, who half-turned and kicked the ball past Rafael and rolled behind him.
Rafael hurriedly turned to beg for the ball, but he didn't want to hear a gust of wind in his ears, he looked back and saw Descartes chasing fiercely from behind him, beside Descartes, Evra, who had been watching him for half the game, did not relax, and also chased after him.
Raphael knew Descartes' speed, and he believed that Descartes could not chase the ball, so he also seemed more relieved, and the moment he got the ball, he immediately chose to open his arms to protect the ball, ready to stop Descartes behind him, and then deal with the ball.
However, a subtle habit at this time changed the outcome of the whole game, as a right-back, they usually get used to putting the ball on the side of their left foot when they block the opposing player with their backs, because they can kick the ball off the sideline at any time when the situation is not good, which is more convenient to delay time; On the other hand, if they are a left wing-back, they will put the ball near their right foot, so that they can also kick the ball off the touchline at the first time and prevent the opponent from breaking the ball from behind.
Rafael is used to playing at right-back, so he has some of the same subtle habits as before, and this time, he also put the ball on his left foot.
After being blocked by him, Descartes immediately went around his right hand and prepared to grab the ball, Raphael was secretly happy, and immediately turned from his left side, so that he could not only continue to carry Descartes behind him, but also take advantage of the situation to kick the ball out and defuse the attack.
But Rafael didn't expect that in addition to a Descartes behind him, there was also his teammate Evra, and when he turned, Evra was ready to bypass his left hand side in order to avoid his action of protecting the ball.
So he turned around and came directly to Evra, the two were stunned at the same time, and the ball accidentally hit Evra's foot, and then rebounded to the bottom line.
Coincidentally, at this time, Descartes just bypassed Raphael, and the ball appeared at his feet inexplicably, in the face of such a big gift, of course, Descartes would not be polite, he immediately took a kick, dialed the ball to the position of the foot, and then opened the frame and crossed again.
Because the ball was passed so suddenly, the ball was still under Raphael's control, and suddenly fell to the feet of Descartes, so the United defenders were not prepared enough, and when the ball crossed the sky, they rushed back to the penalty area as if they had just woken up, ready to clear the ball with a header.
However, the ball, like last time, appeared at the far end of the goal after a rainbow arc.
At this point, the only players who were sprinting in the direction of the ball were Brown and Nasri.
Brown is 1.85 meters tall and weighs 73kg, and Nasri is 1.78 meters tall and weighs 75kg.
But everything on the pitch was only in the blink of an eye, and when the two jumped up at the same time, the Arsenal fans opened their eyes with excitement, and the Manchester United fans began to clench their fists, because they saw that Nasri, who was 7 centimeters shorter than Brown, jumped taller than Brown!
It's not because Brown can't jump, but because he seems to be suddenly afraid of injury in the air, and subconsciously shrinks his body, so that his center of gravity is stable, but the height is not enough.
Then Nasri grabbed over Brown's head and slammed the ball towards United's back post, at which point, Van der Sar was still running desperately back at the front post, while Rio Ferdinand and others were writhing with Van Persie in the middle of the six-yard box.
Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, suddenly stood up at this moment, he nervously stretched his neck to look in the direction of the goal, but there were so many people that he couldn't see the result at all, until he heard a crisp whistle, and then saw the referee pointing his finger to the middle circle, he suddenly felt black in front of him, and almost fell directly to the ground.
The ball is in!
Ferguson only felt his skull tighten for a while, and he suddenly began to regret sending Brown on the field. Neville gritted his teeth and won't give him a chance, at least in the face of such a scramble, Gary. Neville wouldn't have flinched even if he broke his ribs.
One misstep becomes a thousand hatreds!
There was nothing he could do at this point, and the score changed back to 3-3, with Arsenal holding a two-goal advantage on away goals, unless Manchester United scored another goal immediately, they would be eliminated by the disadvantage of away goals.
In desperation, Ferguson waved his hand, and there was no need to find a chance to sneak attack, there were still a few minutes left, give me all my might! (To be continued.) )
