Chapter 18: The Road to Revival

Four rounds of the English Premier League, Simon? Grayson and his team have caused a new round of heated discussions, Manchester United, who have accumulated 12 points from four wins, has become the leader, and behind them are Chelsea and Aston Villa, two unbeaten teams with 3 wins and 1 draw, and then Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, "Blue Moon" Manchester City is unbeaten in the new season, but it is 2 wins and 2 draws behind in the standings.

"16 goals in four games, Simon? Grayson becomes the epitome of offensive football! ”

"Manchester United is finally showing their dominance, and the favourites are amazingly attacking!"

"Simon? Grayson is an attacking maniac, and after the 'Young Guard', he will build the 'Red Devils' into an attacking powerhouse! ”

"In four rounds, Shaq scored 7 goals and 3 assists, Rooney scored 6 goals and 3 assists, and after leaving Leeds United, Shaq and Rooney became 'Manchester United twin stars'!"

"Shaq and Rooney's wonderful performances have become the engine of Manchester United's forward!"

Ninety-five percent of all the comments on the "Red Devils" are good, and these people believe that Manchester United's average of four goals per game in the new season is a reflection of the team's strong attacking power, and the consecutive goals of Shaq and Wayne Rooney are the driving force for Manchester United to move forward.

The black "Red Devils" people think that Manchester United's 16 goals are indeed the most, but Shaq and Rooney scored 13 goals, reaching 81% of the team's total goals, this proportion has meant that Manchester United's offense mainly benefits from the performance of the two biggest stars of Manchester United, once the "twin stars" have an injury, or a sluggish state, the "Red Devils" attack power must be immediately greatly reduced, and then Manchester United will face a very embarrassing dilemma.

However, more people still believe that the "Red Devils" are in Simon? Grayson's leadership will be stronger and stronger, because according to Simon? Grayson's coaching experience. The attacking coach leads the team, and the attacking power is getting stronger and stronger every year.

In the 2012~2013 season, Simon? Grayson led Leeds United to 119 goals in 38 English Premier League games, an average of 3.13 goals per game!

In the 2013~2014 season, Simon? Grayson led Leeds United to 138 goals in 38 Premier League games and won the Premier League title in one fell swoop, averaging a terrifying 3.63 goals per game!

This season. Simon? Grayson is in charge of the "Red Devils" Manchester United, and after four games, the United have scored 16 goals, an average of ...... per game 4 balls!

Such a significant increase in the number of goals, although it proves that Simon? Grayson's team is getting stronger and stronger, but it can also prove that the coaching ability of this rising young generation of England coaches is steadily improving. The "solar system tactics" pioneered by Grayson are becoming more and more complete.

As for whether Shaq and Rooney will affect Manchester United's progress because of their poor form, the question is obviously just Simon? Grayson just needs to think about it, and the others just eat salty turnips and worry about it.

On September 17, the first round of the group stage of the Champions League of the new season began. "Red Devils" Manchester United is a guest at the Parc des Princes Saint-Germain stadium.

In the past two years, Paris Saint-Germain has been promoted by foreign investment, and the overall strength has become a lot stronger. Stars such as Mane have propped up an all-star squad for PSG.

But such a Paris Saint-Germain team is so vulnerable in front of the "Red Devils" Manchester United, and it is ...... Simon? Grayson also started to rotate his team, with Flaney playing in the starting midfield, Ganso being pushed to the left winger and Wayne Rooney moving to the right.

The game was just 2 minutes into the game. Manchester United had the opportunity to play a counter-attack, and "Chubby" Rooney ran all the way with the ball on the right flank. After being filled with all attributes by Shaq, Rooney turned into a humanoid monster on the green field, and he rushed along the way, and no one could stop him.

When Wayne Rooney ran to the right side of the front, he saw that only one of the PSG defenders had returned, and the others were completely thrown off by the pace of himself and Shaq. He directly sent the ball to the feet of Shaq in the middle.

"Bang!"

Facing the goalkeeper alone, Shaq kicked a curling ball with a sweeping shot, and hung the ball directly into the corner of the top right corner of the Paris Saint-Germain goal...... 1：0！

After taking the lead, the "Red Devils" played even more fiercely, completely not saving face for Paris Saint-Germain, who were playing at home. slapped each other's faces in front of 50,000 French fans at the scene, and ...... Over and over!

In the 31st minute, Ganso took a free kick on the left side, and the ball went to the small penalty area on the right side of Paris Saint-Germain...... 2:0！

In the 43rd minute, Rooney was tripped by his former teammate Evra in the penalty area and took the penalty himself, and the score became 3:0!

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, Paris Saint-Germain was in good spirits and Ibrahimovic volleyed a goal back in the 49th minute, but Shaq came back and received a pass from Ganso in the middle circle in the 52nd minute, dribbled all the way to the left side of the penalty area of Paris Saint-Germain, and sent the ball into the opponent's goal from a small angle...... 4:1！

On the 59th minute, Shaq received Di Maria's cross in front of the penalty area on the left side of Paris Saint-Germain, pulled the ball behind him, quickly turned and followed, and went to the top of the penalty area......

"Bang!"

The domineering "Shaq GOAL" reappeared, and the ball was blasted straight into the top right corner of the Paris Saint-Germain goal...... 5:1！

After completing the hat-trick, Shaq stopped, but "Little Fat" was still unsatisfied, with his efforts, in the 67th minute, Ganso received a wonderful pass from Rooney in the penalty area and was pulled to the ground, and "Little Fat" also took the opportunity of this penalty to complete his hat trick...... 6:1, a massacre that marked the return of the "Red Devils" to Europe is no longer in suspense!

Paris Saint-Germain were still unwilling, Mane received a cross from his team-mate from the left on 77 minutes, and flicked his head into De Gea's goal from three meters in front of the goal in the six-yard box on the right.

But Manchester United was not happy, and then "Little Fat" dribbled the ball to the front field on the right side in the 88th minute and crossed to Ganso in the middle, the Brazilian did not give the opponent a chance to pull himself this time, and flexibly shook off the Paris Saint-Germain defender. After dribbling to the small penalty area, he scored with a low left-footed shot, and the score was locked at 7:2!

After the game, captain "Chubby", who scored a hat-trick and provided two assists in the game, won the honor of the best player of the match, but Shaq, who also completed a hat-trick, and Ganso, who scored a goal and completed a hat-trick of assists, were also highly praised.

Simon? Grayson even felt that the cooperation of Shaq, Rooney, and Ganso in the front court seemed to be more able to step on the point, and the rhythm of the three people seemed to be more in tune during the game, and he had secretly decided to give the three young people a chance to work together after returning to England.

As for Van Persie, Hernandes...... That's the dish of "Old Man" Ferguson. Does it fit Simon? Grayson's appetite.

In "Solar System Tactics", Simon? Grayson needs two wingers with a well-rounded skill and a strong sense of teamwork, not Van Persie, who has been transformed into a goalscorer by the "professor", or the technical striker "Little Pea", these two stars, but they have escaped because they have purged too many players this summer, otherwise Simon? Grayson wouldn't have left them at all.

At the post-game press conference, a reporter asked Simon? Will Grayson take the "Red Devils" to the Champions League trophy this season, Simon? Grayson chuckled: "Do you think our summer-restructured team is ready to compete for the Champions League? Oh. Thank you so much, it will make my players more confident. ”

Simon? Grayson's words, which were hailed by the media after the game as a model of humility, were seen as Simon? Grayson has not been carried away by the team's back-to-back victories, and sees him as a model of wise and calm head coach.

But just three days later, someone scolded Simon? Grayson was a liar as Manchester United won again, comfortably beating Aston Villa 2-0 at home in the fifth round of the English Premier League. Shaq and Ganso scored a goal each in the 24th and 41st minutes of the first half.

The score is just a small 2:0, but Simon? Why is Grayson scolded!?

Because the 75,797 fans who watched the match at Old Trafford described their team's performance as "perfect". And countless fans who watched the game on TV will also give a "perfect" evaluation of the performance of the "Red Devils", and even think that this is Simon? Grayson's best game in charge of Manchester United.

The Reds played unfazed throughout the game, but the initiative was firmly in their hands from the start, with a 69 per cent to 31 per cent ratio of time spent on the ball telling us what the 'Red Devils' were doing in this game. The 89 per cent pass completion rate is 67 per cent for Aston Villa.

During the match, Manchester United created numerous attempts on goal and formed 20 shots, with 8 shots on goal and two goals scored.

Defensively, they were almost leakless, with the team making as many as 40 tackles and 24 headers. Of their 29 interceptions, Aston Villa had just five shots on goal, two of which were on target, failing to pose a threat to United's goal.

It can be said that in this game, the "Red Devils" fully showed the essence of "solar system tactics", the whole team revolved around Shaq to pass the ball and run, and when defending, there was Flaney to help, and Shaq and Shaq were like two moving barriers to constantly crush the opponent's attack.

At the end of the game, the Manchester United players scored a staggering 7.29 points on average!

It turns out that the "Red Devils" in Simon? Under Grayson's leadership, there has really been a road to revival, and the future of this team seems to be even brighter than when the "old man" was in charge!

But such a team that is already "perfect" before it is at its best, Simon? Grayson even said that he has no ambition for the Champions League trophy, which is obviously a lie!

All kinds of busyness years ago, these two days ran to a broken leg, and the fat man's efforts can only ensure that the daily guarantee is updated, but please rest assured, the addition after 250 will not be yellow, the fat man will make up for it as soon as possible, everyone can rest assured that the monthly ticket is.
