"Do you see that?"

George Lee retreated to the dugout and spoke to a few of his assistants. The words must be the opponent of this game, Manchester United.

"See what?" It was Brian Kidd who was questioning.

Kidd must have been able to understand United's tactics today, but he didn't know exactly what George Lee was asking.

"Such a stubborn old man will change one day." George Lee said.

It was the 35th minute of the match between Manchester United and Leeds United, and the score was still 0-0.

The lack of goals doesn't mean the game was dull, on the contrary, it was a great game. Both sides took out the ability to look after the house to attack and defend.

The lack of goals can only be said to be excellent defence on both sides.

Both teams had a lot of attacking firepower and the midfielders were in good form today, with no obvious mistakes. But instead of attacking, the defenders on both teams are putting on all sorts of textbook defenses.

United had two fantastic chances in the first half, both on the counter-attack.

Once it was Rooney who initiated it on the left. After receiving a pass from Ryan Giggs on the left, "Lu Xiaopang" used a nimble turn to get rid of the defending Black, and then followed up with a pass to Tevez in the middle of the attack.

After receiving the ball, the Argentine first made a feint in front of the penalty area, and then immediately distributed the ball again to Ronaldo on the right.

Ronaldo's powerful long-range shot was struck by Edwin van der Sar with both hands in the near corner of the net.

Another time was a brilliant through ball from Brazilian Anderson that found it between the Leeds midfielders and defenders.

Tevez took advantage of Rooney's run down the left and slotted in diagonally. After receiving the ball, leaning on Woodgate's body, he stumbled into the penalty area, and then pushed Woodgate to dodge out of the gap to hit the goal.

But he used all his strength to fight, and his feet followed the movements of his hands a little stronger, so he took the ball a little bigger.

Van der Sar, who was attacked, confiscated the ball.

Two very dangerous attacks, both involving Tevez. This made George Li have to pay attention to this Argentine striker who is not tall, but looks very physical.

In fact, George Lee likes players like Tevez very much.

Character issues aside, but looking at football, Tevez is very suitable for Manchester United's football temperament. His fighting spirit of playing the ball bravely, running at any cost, and never giving up, including his tactical literacy and football awareness, are very compatible with Ferguson.

If it weren't for the dirt between the two sides in the buyout clause and Manchester United could have officially acquired Tevez, United would have been Leeds' strongest rivals for the next two years.

Taking advantage of Leeds' corner, George Lee returned to his seat to take a break.

Once he sat down, he continued with the conversation he had just made.

"The old man has learned badly now, you see that when there is no Giggs attacking, unless he is attacking on the left, he is always going down the middle."

George Lee gestured to the midfield, where only one United was ready to counter-attack Tevez and Leeds' two wing-backs.

Mattheyson and Woodgate both stepped forward to take in the corners.

"It seems that the old man is still 442, but in fact, he is playing 433. As Ryan got older, the old man thought about developing him into a central midfielder and completely giving the wing to a few youngsters. ”

"It seems to be two strikers, Tevez and the little fat man, but in fact, when it comes to playing, the little fat man stays in the middle, and the Argentine will go to the left."

"When necessary, the little fat man will give up the right side to the cyclist and wait on the left."

"That's when the short Argentine will move to the middle and attack."

'Even though I can see it very clearly off the pitch and even tell all the players at half-time, the people who do come back to the team will still be unstoppable.

"It's really tough, the formation has changed. But it's still a solid defense to launch a counter-attack, and then hand it over to the good strikers and wingers up front. ”

George Lee grabbed his hair and tried to keep talking, but the rest of the dugout said what he wanted to say in unison.

"Dog Frisbee!"

This new word spoken in a recent interview with George Lee was uttered in unison by the Leeds United coaching staff, as if it had been discussed.

Leeds' corner was headed over by Sneijder, and Smith at the front of the post fought for the first shot, but the ball flew a little high and flew over the crossbar.

In this game, Smith, who played in the central midfield, performed decently and was not as hot as in the previous games. George Li can also see it, probably because he is not used to partnering with another midfielder.

Although there were midfield partners before, but at that time it was Graveson and Edgar Davis, and he didn't need to fill in for them, to help them do things, and there was a clear division of labor between them.

But Sneijder is different, and may not need help in attack; But when it comes to defense, Smith needs to go to Sneijder.

The Dutchman has yet to fully adapt to the pace of the Premier League.

"Alain seems a little uncomfortable, or that he and Wesley don't work well enough." Kidd found out about the problem and raised it with George Lee.

George Li was unmoved and said: "It's okay, if one game doesn't work, there will be two games, if two games don't work, there will be five games, and if five games don't work, it will be a season." ”

It seemed that a new decision had been made, and George Lee spoke in a firm tone.

Last season, Smith made a lot of sacrifices for the team, and the number of goals scored was significantly reduced compared to before. As the captain of the team, it's good to have the option to sacrifice a little bit for the team. But if you need to sacrifice the captain all the time in exchange for the team's victory, it is a dereliction of duty on the part of the manager.

Seeing Smith in the central midfield position, constantly running and scrambling, George Lee has already decided that even after Barry's comeback, unless there is really no one, he will not let Smith go on the left side.

Sneijder, Barry and Parker took turns to pair Smith in order to help Smith develop into one of the best midfielders in England.

When Arjen Robben returned on the right, he put Arneson back on the left and rotated him and Bale. Before Robben returned, it was better to let Bale start first.

And the team's original first substitute on the wing, Lee Bowyer is already about to sit on the bench, except for the previous Leeds United wide players when they were injured a lot, many substitutes, most of the time Bowyer may not even be in the squad.

However, the former "bad boy" is not angry, anyway, he has decided to retire at Leeds United, and decided to become a manager after retiring. Recently, he has been grinding hard and wanted to sit in on the coaching staff's meeting, but George Lee rejected it because George Lee thought Bowyer's approach was to avoid training.

"Good shot!"

George Lee was still thinking about Smith's position when he saw Leeds United launch an attack here.

Smith poked Anderson's ball out and stabbed it to Sneijder on the side. Sneijder made a through ball to Kuyt, who passed through the defence.

After Kuyt received the ball, Robinson chose to push it into the far corner.

When George Lee saw it, it was already Kuyt's time to shoot. It was only a blink of an eye from Smith's break to Kuyt's shot.

After George Lee jumped up, Leeds United's bench and coaching staff stood up and ready to celebrate.

Kuyt also lived up to the expectations of his team-mates and coaches off the pitch, steadily pushing the ball into the far corner of the United goal.

After seeing the goal scored, the Leeds players on and off the pitch were already celebrating.

However, George Lee did not join in, and he immediately looked at the referee who was also on the sidelines.

Sure enough, the linesman had already raised the flag in his hand.
