Chapter Five Hundred and Sixth, Continue to Lead

After the reinforcement during the winter transfer period, some teams in the Premier League have undergone considerable changes.

Among the top four teams in the league, Manchester United is still firmly at the top of the list, making great strides, maintaining a strong momentum, and preparing for the defense of the Premier League championship; while Chelsea and Manchester City, which have made up strong reinforcements, are also very strong. Keep the winning streak; fourth place Arsenal is also close behind with an unbeaten record. At present, the top four points have far surpassed the second group.

The second group in the Premier League is Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton and Crystal Palace. Tottenham, who is ranked fifth, is already far behind Arsenal, who is fourth. It seems that it is very difficult for them to compete for the Champions League tickets. Not only that, but the four teams competing for tickets to the Europa League are also fiercely competitive.

Since the victory over Leicester City on January 31, Manchester United temporarily bid farewell to a week of double matches, and the players can take a little breather. However, since February, Manchester United's intensive schedule has begun again. Throughout February, Manchester United officially ushered in the journey of four-line combat.

In the twenty-fourth round of the Premier League on February 9, Manchester United will play away against West Ham.

In the twenty-fifth round of the Premier League on February 12, Manchester United will welcome Burnley at home.

In the fifth round of the FA Cup on February 15, Manchester United will go away to Derby County, another Championship team.

On February 18, the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals kicked off, and Manchester United ushered in the challenge of Porto, the overlord of the Portuguese Super League, at home.

In the twenty-sixth round of the Premier League on February 21, Manchester United will play away against Swansea.

In the twenty-seventh round of the Premier League on February 28, Manchester United will play away against Newcastle.

In the League Cup final on March 2, Manchester United and Chelsea will fight at Stamford Bridge to compete for the League Cup title this season.

The schedule in February is not small. On the one hand, Kinteg has little advantage in points in the league. They need to continue to grab points in the league to secure the top position; In this game, they and Chelsea will definitely have a life-and-death fight; and Kintag's most valued champion this season-the Champions League champion, finally ushered in the knockout stage. A powerful player should not be underestimated.

After a few days of rest, the physical condition of the Manchester United players has recovered very well. In the recent training, Kintag found that the players are in good condition. It seems that the next game will be easy to play.

On February 9, Manchester United played away against West Ham.

This season, West Ham's results have been ups and downs. Sometimes they beat Manchester City 2-1, and sometimes they were beaten 4-0 by Crystal Palace. The unstable state caused them to rank after ten in the standings.

In Manchester United's away game against West Ham, they showed a super unstable situation.

In the first half, West Ham seemed to be the best team in London. Their midfield organization was simply world-class. From passing to offense, from possession to defense, they all performed at the level of the teams participating in the Champions League.

Their midfielder is Alexander Song. He used to be a talented young man at Arsenal. He then moved to Barcelona in the summer of 2012 and reached the peak of his life. But in La Liga last season, he hardly got many chances to play. , In order to seek the main position, he had to rely on loan to return to the Premier League and joined West Ham. This season, his state has also been ups and downs. When he is in good form, he is very similar to Vieira, the former Arsenal predecessor. When he is in bad form, he is invisible on the court. Ready to renew his lease at the end of the season.

However, in this game, Song became Vieira again. His excellent defense made Kanter on the opposite side somewhat resigned. Whether it was Lampard or De Bruyne, Manchester United's offensive players could not reach West Ham's penalty area at all. All the threatening balls were intercepted by Song outside the penalty area. The head coaches of both sides were amazed by Song's performance.

And Raman from Sky TV said in disbelief: "I think it is necessary to check Song's urine test results after the game. He is omnipotent in this game!"

And Jin Taige was also a little anxious: "If you follow this rhythm, this game is really hanging."

When the first half ended, neither side could score a goal.

During the intermission, Kintag asked the two wingers to increase the assist range, and the offensive players should also be more active, and strive to score goals as soon as possible.

Soon after the start of the second half, the Manchester United players were surprised to find out, where did the West Ham players go?

They were surprised not because there were no West Ham players on the field, but because they found that the West Ham players had completely changed their appearance. In the first half, they were alive and well, but in the second half they turned into sick cats.

"What happened during their halftime break? Did they fight in the locker room?" Phelan asked puzzled.

Jin Taige shook his head: "I guess they may have been sucked away by some mysterious force."

"This is not a team at all..." Scholes looked at the field puzzled.

Facing such a West Ham team, Kintegger's team will not be soft-hearted. The offensive core Lampard and De Bruyne's cooperation is becoming more and more tacit. The two of them formed an offensive dual-core situation in the frontcourt. West Ham's goal launched an attack, pressing the opponent's defense.

Manchester United's offensive effect is remarkable. Within ten minutes after the start of the second half, they scored two goals in a row at the speed of chopping melons and vegetables. These two goals were Lampard and De Blau scored inside.

The two of them, who were defended by Song without temper in the first half, were finally able to vent their anger in the second half. The two of them each used a beautiful long shot from outside the penalty area to break through West Ham's goal. These two goals were scored from absolute dead ends, and the opponent's goalkeeper did not respond.

West Ham, who were in a daze in the second half, were completely dazzled by these two goals. They were even more at a loss next, as if they suddenly couldn't play football. Although the head coach made continuous substitution adjustments, it still had no effect.

In the 71st minute of the game, Lewandowski scored a wonderful goal and continued to expand the score advantage through a continuous escape from the penalty area.

In the last ten minutes or so, Manchester United played better and better. Griezmann got two good chances in a row, but his two shots hit the post and missed the goal. It seems that Griezmann's scoring luck today is not very good.

The final score of this game was fixed at 3 to 0. Manchester United easily defeated their opponents, scored three points and continued to lead the Premier League standings!
