Chapter Thirty-Two, Li Ao's Own Way
Chapter Thirty-two, Li Ao's own way
There is another person who has the same idea as Li Ao, and that is Mourinho sitting on the sidelines.
He didn't think that Liverpool was no longer a threat. On the contrary, he became more nervous. He didn't even realize that his back was tense and straightened unconsciously.
Such a thought suddenly popped up in his heart—maybe the key to deciding the outcome of this game is during this period of time. …
Although this idea came out of nowhere, Mourinho's subsequent analysis confirmed this idea more and more.
First of all, it is now the 60th minute of the whole game, and in ten minutes, it will be the 70th minute.
At that time, the physical fitness of the players on both sides will have problems. So if you want to do something, now is the time when you are still physically fit.
In addition, the game has gone on to the 60th minute, and the score is still one to one. Most of the time, Manchester United surrounded Liverpool.
In this case, Manchester United players are most prone to lax thinking of being proud and underestimating the enemy.
Once the full-back assists and goes forward but does not come back, from full-back to winger, the situation is very dangerous...
So this must not be allowed to happen.
Mourinho's general idea is that it doesn't matter if he gets a draw in the away game. The first priority is not to lose.
Therefore, Mourinho's guiding ideology is to stick to the main line, a draw is acceptable, and winning is an unexpected surprise.
On the pitch, Li Ao was plotting the exact opposite of Mourinho's expectations in his head.
He doesn't know what the head coach is planning, he just plans according to his own ideas.
He felt that it would definitely not be a good thing if the game was tied.
Now Manchester United and Manchester City are winning streak, the two teams have the same points.
And Li Ao is very clear about the future development of Manchester City. This team is too rich, so they can have a very scary lineup.
The thirty-eight rounds of the league are like a marathon, and the thickness of the bench is like the physical reserves of long-distance runners.
From this point of view.
The thickness of Manchester United's bench is incomparable with that of Manchester City.
The only advantage Manchester United has this season is that they don't have to play in Europe.
so.
To maintain the momentum of the championship in the league.
You have to keep winning.
Until the meeting with Manchester City!
Beat Manchester City head-on and take the lead!
not to mention.
If the league is a marathon, it may not be necessary to lead from the beginning.
Of course, now that Manchester United is leading the way, all they have to do is continue to win.
Manchester City will definitely have an accident, but Manchester United can seize the opportunity to continue to open the score. In this case...they can create more pressure on Manchester City.
The accumulation of pressure may cause Manchester City to have surprises.
If the difference is big enough.
Maybe when the two sides meet, Manchester United will already be several points ahead of each other.
Then the game will be much easier to play.
This is Li Ao's thinking from the overall strategic level. If Mourinho knows his thoughts, he will be very surprised. Because very few players think about a game from such a height...
Now that the strategic level has been considered, it is time to consider the tactical level.
Li Ao now plans how to implement his strategy in detail.
First of all, the two full-backs are the key.
After observing for more than ten minutes, Li Ao was sure that Liverpool must have looked at the situation of Manchester United's two full-backs to decide whether to counterattack.
Liverpool had a few counterattacks in the second half, but they didn't score and they weren't very threatening.
They took advantage of the space left behind after Manchester United's two full-backs assisted up.
However, Manchester United's overall rear was relatively stable at that time, because the two full-backs rarely rushed up to assist at the same time, they always went up one by one, and the other defended behind.
Liverpool is also afraid that Manchester United will take advantage of the space behind them, so the troops invested in this counterattack are very limited, and it is almost unlikely to pose any threat to De Gea's goal.
This is why the previous commentators believed that Liverpool was unable to counterattack.
But what if the team goes all out on offense?
What if they suddenly dared to commit troops in a counterattack?
Li Ao knew what it was like without having to think about it.
At that time, Manchester United's defense will definitely not be able to stop the impact of Suya Reiss, Sturridge, Sterling and others.
because………………
Li Ao really doesn't have much confidence in Bailey and Maureen.
Even he had doubts about Fellaini's defensive ability.
Of course.
This kind of thought was just pressed in my heart, and I didn't say it out.
This also illustrates the flaws of Manchester United's lineup from the side.
This is a very flawed lineup.
but......
For Li Ao.
A flaw is a flaw.
If the lineup is perfect, how can you show your ability?
Single-handedly lead the team to win the championship.
This kind of challenge fascinated Li Ao.
Now what Li Ao has to do is exactly what the Liverpool people want-he is waving his hands to make the two full-backs press up.
"Need to put more people in the frontcourt!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity of a dead ball, Ji said to the somewhat surprised Carrick.
Carrick was very surprised after seeing Li Ao's previous actions. He knew that Mourinho had specifically ordered two full-backs not to go up to assist at the same time. Li Ao was blatantly disobeying the head coach's order.
Mourinho is a head coach with a strong desire for power.
No matter how big the star is, he dares to transfer directly to the reserve team.
When he was at Real Madrid, he even dared to give up Casillas
Is Li Ao going to do the same?
Facing Li Ao's explanation, Carrick didn't think he should do this either.
々The head coach asked us to..."
Li Ao waved his hand: "It's okay, we have to adapt ourselves when we are on the court."
Seeing that Li Ao couldn't be persuaded, Carrick looked back at Mourinho on the sidelines with some worry.
In fact, he is quite conflicted in his heart --- he has just cooperated with Li Ao "I think it feels good to partner with him in midfield.
But on the other hand, if Li Ao offends coach Mourinho because of this.
Maybe Li Ao will be beaten by Mourinho and put on the bench.
Then the power of the midfield commander fell on him.
Carrick felt conflicted (of Wang Qian's) and didn't speak any more.
Luke Shaw hesitated as well, but Li Ao couldn't stand Li Ao beckoning him to go up, and even passed the football to him, encouraging him to go up, and finally rushed up to the valley.
Valencia was originally a winger with a strong desire to attack, and now he is eager to rush up and participate in the attack to his heart's content.
Liverpool had no offense before, and he had to abide by Mourinho's halftime rules. When Luke Shaw made an assist, he had to show off and stay behind.
It made him miserable, like a car with plenty of horsepower that was forced to run in first gear, depressed. It's all right now, Li Ao added him to the fifth gear, don't say anything, let's hit the accelerator to the end!
Although he is also worried that this is a violation of the head coach's rules, but who cares, this is what Li Ao proposed...
Moreover, Valencia is a meritorious service in the team, and there is no psychological burden in the face of the new coach.
