The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 514 Defeating Manchester United is just like playing!
After Franck Ribery returned from injury and performed better every game, how to adjust the team's offensive combination in the frontcourt has obviously become a big problem for Ye Qiu. After all, Gareth Belburn The performance of the season is also quite amazing, and the young Welshman is also very clear that he needs more game time.

But what is even more worrying is the battle for the core of the attack between Ribery and Messi!

Last season, Tottenham Hotspur's offensive core was Franck Ribery. The French winger had a smooth foot and scored goals frequently. It was logical that Van Persie and Messi played for him more. Ribery was seriously injured and sidelined for most of the season. Messi quickly established his status and influence in the team and became the team's number one superstar.

Judging from this season, Messi has performed very well no matter whether he is playing on the right or in the middle. Currently, he has become the team's top scorer with a total of 35 goals on all fronts, but at the same time, he still has ten goals. Five assists, the performance is quite amazing.

Therefore, many people were worried, if Ribery and Messi were to play at the same time, how would Ye Qiu adjust the firepower distribution between these two players?Can these two superstars who were originally the bosses of the team coexist harmoniously?
Even before, there was quite a lot of media speculation that the reason why Messi decided to leave Manchester City in the summer was not only because of the sky-high transfer fee of 5000 million euros given by Manchester City, but also because of the three times the price of Tottenham Hotspur. In addition to the annual salary that makes him very satisfied, more importantly, Manchester City promised to build a super strong team with him as the core.

It is difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to refute the speculations of the outside media one by one, but in this game against Everton, the two players gave the fans a satisfactory answer.

Tottenham Hotspur's performance in this game was not very satisfactory. Everton's performance this season was quite good, especially when they played against strong teams. Without losing the wind, Moyes' ability to train the mid-range team is amazing, and in this game, Everton also counterattacked defensively at home, which caused Tottenham Hotspur a very headache.

But when everyone was looking forward to seeing whether it was Ribery or Messi, who would stand up to break Tottenham Hotspur's current predicament, Van Persie unbelievably became the leader of the game. number one protagonist.

David Silva made a through ball, Ribery made a breakthrough on the left side of the penalty area and made a cross, Everton left back Lescott was pulled to the back point by Messi, and Van Persie was unmarked, lightly Easy Song Tui shot into the net, breaking Tim? Howard's goal.

But only 2 minutes later, Messi broke through Lescott and Jagielka on the right, crossed to Van Persie's feet in a very narrow range in the penalty area, and the latter easily stopped the ball near the penalty spot and scored. 2:0!

In less than 3 minutes, Tottenham Hotspur attacked twice in a row and pierced Everton's goal. However, it was not Ribery and Messi who were expected to break the deadlock, but Van Persie. .

However, everyone can see that the biggest contributors to Van Persie's goal are actually Ribery and Messi. It was Messi who pulled Lescott and Jagielka away to create space for Van Persie.

At the post-match press conference, Ye Qiu publicly commented on Ribery and Messi's outstanding performance, and believed that their role was not only reflected in the two assists, but that they worked hard throughout the game Helping his team create opportunities is undoubtedly a situation he very much wants to see.

"They are the kind of players who can bring more contributions to the whole team. They are very comprehensive. They can not only take the ball on the wing to form a breakthrough, but also can cut inside with the ball. They also have the ability to score in the penalty area. Their existence can help the team connect the three depths of the left, center and right to form a powerful three-dimensional offensive combination."

As for Gareth Bell, Ye Qiu felt that the Welshman had extraordinary potential, and his current strength was quite outstanding, but he still needed to continue to improve, because he was still very young and had a long way to go.

But when the media talked about it tit-for-tat, he was also 19 years old, but Messi had already become the core player of Tottenham Hotspur back then. Why couldn’t Gareth Bale be the main player in Tottenham Hotspur? ?

Faced with this sensitive issue, Ye Qiu said that players have different technical characteristics, different environments, and different experiences. However, he also promised that he will give Gareth Bell more opportunities to play.

As for Tottenham Hotspur's 4-0 victory over Manchester City at home one day earlier, Ye Qiu said that he had something to look forward to. Manchester United performed very well in this game, but he didn't think Tottenham Hotspur are under pressure.

"I've been telling my players that we've only had one enemy so far this season in the Premier League and that's us, and if we end up losing the league it's all of us because it's only Tottenham. Tottenham can beat Tottenham, Manchester United can't threaten us, can't put pressure on us!"

"I think we should show the temperament of the league championship contenders. We need to go all out in every game and strive to win every next game. As long as we do well enough, the championship must belong to us!"

Team captain Thiago Silva also supported Ye Qiu's remarks at the post-match press conference.

The captain of Tottenham Hotspur said confidently, "The atmosphere in the locker room is very good now. Maybe we have played a bit difficult in the past few games, but that is not because of our lack of strength, but because we are in a difficult situation. It is an important adjustment stage, because we have just gone through a very intensive monster schedule, but I believe we can stick to the end!"

The vice-captain of the team and the number one superstar star David Beckham used his own experience to remind the team, "At this stage we should completely forget about the Champions League final, which is meaningless to our current league championship. Concentrate on the league, strive to win the remaining two games, beat Manchester City and Liverpool, and strive to win the league championship!"

Ye Qiu gave the team a day off after playing Everton. After returning to Theobald's training base, he immediately held the team's internal mobilization meeting. In this meeting, Ye Qiu asked the team to People must strive to win Manchester City and Liverpool, and at the same time give the team incentives, which is to increase the team's double crown bonus.

But more importantly, Ye Qiu asked Beckham and the team's psychologists to conduct a brief analysis and exchange with the players on the spot, especially Beckham, who had rich experience in multi-line combat at Manchester United, especially That experience was invaluable to Tottenham when Manchester United reversed Bayern Munich to win the Treble.

Beckham did not hide the slightest bit. He told everyone at the meeting the pressure that Manchester United was under. At that time, the pressure on Manchester United was even greater than that of Tottenham Hotspur now. Not only did they suffer in the league Arsenal's sniping also played very hard in the Champions League. Almost all the way to the final was reversed, and there was also the FA Cup.

"The biggest test for players in multi-line combat is not physically, but mentally!" Beckham said to all Tottenham Hotspur teammates, "Especially in the second half of the season, it is inevitable for everyone There will be a kind of slack, telling ourselves that if we persist in two more games and three more games, the season will be over and we can rest."

"From a psychological point of view, the weakest time for a person is not when you are the most tired, but when you feel that you can rest, so the most suitable time for sneak attack in ancient wars is not in the middle of the night, but at dawn Before dawn, and now, we are just before dawn!"

"It's not impossible to overcome this mentality, but don't expect others to help you. No one can help you with psychological problems, you can only rely on yourself, but I think there is an effective way, that is, you , Every minute and every second, I admonish myself in my heart, focus, dedicate, work hard, and persevere!"

Regarding Beckham's experience, Ye Qiu thinks it is very good, and several psychologists in the team also analyze the psychological problems that the current Tottenham Hotspur players may have from a professional perspective. It boils down to two categories, either unconscious slack in psychology, or too much pressure, both of which are not very good psychology.

Sometimes Ye Qiu thinks, in this world, only when you have experienced it yourself can you appreciate it.

It's like the current situation of Tottenham Hotspur. If you don't have personal experience, no matter how much you tell them, they won't understand. The experience of the season, the next time they encounter such a thing again, they will be more calm, this is a kind of progress.

In addition to holding internal mobilization meetings to help the players get rid of the psychological pressure, Ye Qiu also arranged for the coaching staff to help the team build a relaxed game atmosphere in the training programs and usual team activities, but this time Ye Qiu Closed training was not adopted again, but media interference was minimized.

Sometimes you say there is no pressure on one side, but on the other side you feel tense as if you are facing a big enemy. The players are fine on the surface, but the pressure in their hearts may be greater, so it is better to just let go. let them go.

Tottenham Hotspur is under a lot of pressure, but Manchester United's pressure is not necessarily light.

Ferguson's team is also holding a mobilization meeting after playing Manchester City. Ferguson even shouted in a high-profile interview with the media that he will strive for the next two consecutive victories and leave all the pressure to Tottenham Hotspur .

"From the perspective of the schedule, we have an advantage. I firmly believe that Turnham Hotspur will make mistakes, and we will take advantage of their mistakes and completely pull them down from the league leader!"

In the interview, Ferguson repeatedly emphasized the Champions League final. This damn old Scottish man knew very well that the Champions League final is the dream of professional players, and defending the Champions League is a temptation that all Tottenham Hotspur players cannot refuse. He is now constantly throwing out the Champions League final, and his attitude is to distract the Tottenham Hotspur players.

Ye Qiu was not to be outdone, and believed that it would be difficult for Manchester United to win a complete victory. Whether it was Arsenal or the relegation team Hull City, they would attack Manchester United with all their might. Moreover, Manchester United has a huge weakness, that is, as long as two players are strangled, they can freeze Manchester United. attack.

One is Carlos Tevez, and the other is Berbatov. If you can go further, you can directly suppress Manchester United's midfield. As long as you do these things, beating Manchester United is just like playing.

Beating Manchester United is like playing?
After hearing Ye Qiu's words, the media couldn't help laughing, because Manchester United's two worst losses this season were at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur, one in the Community Shield and one in the Community Shield. The first game was the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, both of which were disastrous losses, both in Ye Qiu's hands.

So, to a certain extent, it seems that Ye Qiu's words are not too much.

The closer to the critical moment of the season, the more exciting the war of words between Ye Qiu and Ferguson became. The two famous coaches put on a show one after another, wanting to fight for the league championship and doing everything they can. Both sides tried their best to interfere The opponent's formation.

This round of war of words started on Tuesday, one round a day, you come and go, no one will be outdone, and it has been fought until Saturday.

Manchester United played against Arsenal at home. Both sides played a very difficult game. Since Wenger reused Alexander Song, Arsenal's defensive strength in the midfield has been improved to a certain extent, and the defense has also been stabilized and solid. Actively respond with defensive counterattacks.

Manchester United, on the other hand, was ambitious and wanted to swallow Arsenal in one go. They used their home court advantage to launch a fierce attack from the beginning, but neither side could easily kill their opponents. The game lasted 10 minutes, and the atmosphere on both sides was very hot. The super-long stoppage time of 5 minutes finally given by the referee also caused great controversy.

In the end, it was Carlos Tevez who cut off Gallas's ball at a critical moment, forming a single-handed goal. The Argentine Beast used his hard work to help Manchester United get three points.

But at the same time, Tottenham Hotspur is also at home. After a week of rest and recuperation, they defeated the visiting Manchester City 3-1 cleanly. The trip is probably coming to an end. After all, with such a large investment in the season, the final result is a ranking in the middle of the league, which is indeed unsatisfactory.

After the seventh round of No.30 in the league, the outside media was like a holiday. Wenger took the lead, thinking that the referee deliberately favored Manchester United. He not only gave Manchester United super long stoppage time, but also made many favorable decisions for Manchester United. The penalty, which included Walcott's beautiful anti-offside single-handedly, was blown offside.

This time Ye Qiu stood firmly by Wenger's side. When the reporter asked him his opinion on this matter, he smiled and said, "A draw should be the fairest result!" To three points is not fair at all.

After hearing this, Ferguson was so angry that he almost vomited blood and fired directly, thinking that Wenger was not reconciled after losing. Otherwise, with Manchester United occupying such a large advantage in the whole game, especially on the offensive end, they almost beat Arsenal to win. It is a matter of course.

"I know that Arsenal is currently ranked fifth, and the possibility of entering the Champions League is gone, so I can understand Wenger's painful mood at this moment!" Ferguson did not forget to add insult to injury.

Arsenal's performance this season is indeed lacking in competitiveness. At present, they have opened up a huge gap with Chelsea, which is fourth in the league. In addition to the Thorn's championship battle, the suspense in the final round is still relegation.

Strictly speaking, the relegation battle this season is also quite tragic. With one round left, none of the five relegated teams are out of danger. Newcastle, Middlesbrough, West Bromwich Albion, Hull City and Sanders Lan, these five teams will decide the winner in the final round to see who will be relegated.

In an interview with the media after the game, Ye Qiu also publicly expressed his support for Phil Brown's success in relegation. He believed that Phil Brown had the ability to ensure that Hull City stayed in the Premier League at the last moment.

"I believe that as long as Phil Brown's team thinks of the 3:4 at Old Trafford, he will be full of strength!" Ye Qiu feared that the world would not be chaotic, and launched a campaign against Manchester United. offensive.

In the first round match between Hull City and Manchester United, Manchester United quickly took a 3:1 lead at home in the first half, and quickly scored in the second half, establishing a 4:1 advantage, but followed closely by Hull City. Pressing Manchester United for a fat meal, almost beat the Red Devils into a mess, and successfully chased the score to 3:4, but in the end it almost turned the situation around.

Although Manchester United defended a victory in the end, Ferguson's team was forced into a very embarrassing situation by Hull City. Now that Ye Qiu used this battle to motivate Hull City, he actually had the intention of indirectly suppressing Manchester United.

However, the old man Ferguson was not to be outdone, and he directly praised Benitez, almost praising Benitez so much that even the fat Spanish man felt embarrassed, and said that Benitez was Ye Qiu's sufferer, Liverpool was born Ke Tottenham Hotspur, he believes that Benitez's team must be able to show the temperament of a top team, and will definitely go all out in the final round.

This is what Ferguson is most worried about, because Liverpool is Manchester United's mortal enemy, and the Red Army now has nothing to desire. The third position in the league is very solid. A deadly enemy, convenient for Tottenham Hotspur's thinking, then Manchester United is really finished.

So Ferguson did everything possible to stimulate Liverpool and Benitez, and even if possible, I believe he would tell Benitez directly, buddy, you can kill Tottenham Hotspur, the price is whatever you want!

It was in this tense and exciting atmosphere that the last round of the Premier League finally kicked off slowly!
