Chapter 61, Intensive Schedule

In a focus battle in the third round of the Premier League in the 2013-2014 season, Manchester United finally defeated the arch-rival Liverpool 3-0.

At the press conference after the game, Jin Taige said to reporters with a smug look: "The goal of double-killing Liverpool in the season has been achieved halfway. We won, and one kill is a success!"

This sentence made Rogers, who was next to him, walk away in a huff. He didn't even start the press conference, and left the press conference hall.

That night, in the studio of English Entertainment and Sports Channel 2, Taimi once again invited Wolfe, a reporter from The Sun. Taimi had a harmless expression on her face, and asked Wolff to talk about it with great interest. Talk about your thoughts on the third round of the Premier League.

Wolff commented on some of the games from the third round: "Chelsea won 2-1 at home to Aston Villa and it was a tough game for Jose Mourinho's team, despite the three points. , although Mourinho has had great success in the Premier League, but he wants to reproduce the glory, the road ahead may be more difficult than he imagined."

Taimi then asked, "What about the other games?"

"Compared to Chelsea's struggle, Manchester City's 2-0 home win over Hull City was a lot easier. Manchester City have made a lot of attacking players this season, and Manchester City's bench lineup is more luxurious than the main lineup of many teams. I think The next thing Pellegrini needs to worry about is how to choose the starting striker."

"What about the other heavyweight fights?" Taimi had been guiding Wolff.

Wolff nodded: "You're talking about the London Derby in the third round. Arsenal are at home against Tottenham Hotspur. The two teams are full of sparks and play offensive football. 0 win over Tottenham Hotspur, but they suffered heavy losses on the field. The core midfielder Rosicky was injured and left the field, and it is estimated that he will need to rest for a month, and Sagna, who came on at the last minute, received a red card, and the next game will also be Couldn't play. It was too hard for Arsenal to win those three points."

Taimi smiled: "Mr. Wolff, you have commented on all the games, then the most important England national derby in this round of the league, Manchester United beat Liverpool 3-0 away, what do you think of that game? "

When Wolff heard this, his face was slightly unnatural: "Although Manchester United won 3-0, it is not a light win. Liverpool also caused them a lot of trouble..."

Taimi continued: "In the post-match press conference, Kim Tiger said he's 'half achieved his goal of double-killing Liverpool this season, one-killing success!'. Does this concern you?"

Since the Manchester United game, Wolff has been very afraid to hear someone ask about the game. If he hadn't made an agreement with Entertainment Sports 2 a few days ago about the show, at this juncture, he would have been killed. He doesn't take the initiative to show his face.

So when he heard Taimi's question, he had to answer, he hesitated and said: "This season is still a long time, just winning a game is nothing, until the second half of the season, I believe Rodgers's The team will be able to win back what they lost at Old Trafford!"

"In the second half of the season, my team will definitely be able to win back what they lost at Old Trafford!"

In an interview with reporters on the second day of the game, Rodgers said bitterly.

And Phelan said to Scholes with admiration: "Tiger deliberately angered Rogers before the game, and led the snake out of the hole. This is the key to victory in this game."

No matter what others say, the game is already over after all, the outcome has been decided and the three points are in hand, Jin Tiger's goal has been placed on the fourth round of the league and the Champions League.

There will be no league matches in the next weekend. All continents are in the process of World Cup qualifiers. This year's European qualifiers are also in full swing. After the penultimate round of qualifiers on September 7,

The top teams in Europe have almost locked their places in the qualifying. Among the traditional giants, only France and Portugal are in a precarious situation. They are ranked second in the group. Only in the last game, they won the first game and won the first place in the group. Lost, so that they can qualify for a direct appearance, otherwise, these two teams can only play the second round of the play-offs.

In the next period of time, Manchester United will usher in a wave of intensive games.

In the 22 days from September 14 to October 5, Manchester United will play seven consecutive games, including four league games, two Champions League group matches and one League Cup match. The intensity of one game for an average of three days gave Jin Tiger a headache. Faced with this situation, we can only adopt the rotation system.

Although the number of substitutes in the team is sufficient, the quality is uneven. If there is a rotation, it will definitely affect the results of the game.

But there is no way, the game is so intensive, if there is no rotation, the main players will not be able to bear the physical strength.

For a giant team like Manchester United, the experience of fighting in the third or even fourth line every year is a big difficulty that the head coach needs to face.

On September 14, the fourth round of the Premier League started in an all-round way, Manchester United ushered in the Crystal Palace team at home.

Because the first round of the Champions League will be ushered in three days later, and the Crystal Palace team has limited overall strength, so in this Premier League, Manchester United, Jin Taige was cruel, replaced almost all the substitutes, and let the main players rest. .

The formation is still 4-4-2: Alisson was replaced by goalkeeper, De Gea was rested; Smalling, Van Dijk on the back line, Alonso and Jones on both sides; midfielder Kante continued to start, He is paired with Anderson, Ashley Young and Valencia on the left and right; Icardi and Martial are two young players on the forward line.

Manchester United's squad is very young, and Crystal Palace coach Holloway is very happy. He thinks he has the opportunity to create a miracle at Manchester United's home.

But he thought too much.

Although Manchester United has many young players, the strength is still not weak.

Ashley Young and Valencia on the left and right, they were rotation players who were not weak in the Ferguson era, and their crosses and breakthroughs were very threatening; and the two young forwards who started the game, Icardi spirituality Full, Martial dribbles well, and the two of them also pose a great threat to the Crystal Palace backline.

The final score of the whole game was fixed at 2-0. Manchester United scored a goal from Icardi and Martial respectively. In the end, Manchester United won the game without a fight at Old Trafford.

In addition to being satisfied with the score of this game, what pleases Jin Tiger the most is that the winger Zaha, who was loaned to Crystal Palace by himself, made his debut in the game.
