Chapter 66, 3 Consecutive Victories
In the cheers of the fans, Manchester United's 2013-2014 UEFA Champions League opener ended with a victory. Manchester United finally won 4-2 at home to Leverkusen and made a good start to the Champions League.
After the game, Scholes asked Jintag: "Captain, during training, Martial has always been a striker or a shadow striker. How did you think about letting Martial play on the wing?"
Jin Taige said with a smile: "When Martial was at Lyon, he used to play the winger position, so he was very familiar with the full-back; and the score was 2-2 at the time, if I change to a more experienced coach Rencia, he is likely to be surrounded by the opponent like Nani. Valencia has a good pass and a balanced attack and defense, but if the impact is compared, Martial is stronger. So I finally put Martial , but Martial went to the German strong and bulky back line, and it really paid off."
After listening to Scholes, he was very impressed: "Captain, your on-the-spot commander is more and more like a jazz."
Jin Taigao laughed: "Paul, I'm ashamed to say that, I'm still 108,000 miles away from the level of the Jazz."
In the locker room, Jin Taige praised the team's performance today. He gave the players a morning off the next day to let everyone take a break and prepare to continue to meet the following intensive schedule with full energy.
After Manchester United won this Champions League game, plus the first two games, 3-0 victory over Liverpool, 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace, Manchester United has won three consecutive victories on all fronts. The team led by Jin Taige is moving forward smoothly, and everything is going very smoothly.
After the three-game winning streak, major media in England also made remarks, changing their distrust of Jin Tiger some time ago, and all sang praises to Jin Tiger's Manchester United.
The club's CEO, Woodward, also specially came to King Tiger's office and brought these newspapers to King Tiger one by one for him to take a look.
Jin Taige said with a smile: "Look, this is all due to the 'dart competition'. Only when we have a good relationship with the media can we live a better life. Otherwise, if you are busy arguing with the media all day, there will be nothing. Time management team."
Woodward said with great admiration: "Tiger, the person I admire most now is Sir Alex Ferguson. He is so insightful that he was able to dig out such a young and talented coach like you. This is really the luck of the Manchester United club."
During this period of time, Jin Taige's life has indeed been much better. The whole of England has praised him. The league has been smooth sailing, the Champions League has won the opponent, and the young players bought in the summer have played well. The veterans of the team are very convinced of him. Kim Tiger got everything a new coach could get.
Even Wolff, the "Sun" reporter who has always been against him, hasn't criticized him in public for a long time. Wolff turned his target to Chelsea, who had drawn three consecutive league games, and he began to fight with Mourinho again. . For someone like Wolfe, you have to find someone to give it a shot. But none of this has anything to do with Kintag.
Kintag was pretty much all right, the only thing that bothered him was Kanter.
After the end of the last game, Jintaige immediately asked the team doctor to give Kante a comprehensive insistence, but the result surprised him: Kante suffered a slight injury to his right knee, although it was not serious, but he needed to rest for a while.
The team doctor's suggestion is to rest for at least half a month, otherwise it will easily affect the future.
Jin Taige followed the advice of the team doctor. What he needs is an iron waist that can carry Manchester United for the next ten or even fifteen years, so he will never let Kante take risks because of the games in front of him.
Kante is a little disappointed, the team is in the intensive schedule, just when they need themselves. Jin Taige comforted him with kind words and told him to take good care of his injuries and don't be rash. What he needed was a healthy Kanter.
Time flies fast, just won the Champions League game with Leverkusen at home on September 17,
On September 22, Manchester United will face the rivals Manchester City away in the fifth round of the league.
In fact, it is an away game, but the two teams are in the same city. The biggest advantage of this is that it saves the pain of going back and forth on the road. Manchester City's home stadium, the Etihad Stadium, is less than 20 kilometers away from Old Trafford, a 20-minute drive away, which is very close.
Although Manchester United has many fans all over the world, in fact, Manchester City has many more fans than Manchester United in this city. It turned out that there was only one club in Manchester. At that time, almost all Manchester fans regarded Manchester City as their home team, but then Manchester United struggled in Newton Heath, and finally came to Manchester to compete with Manchester City and acquired many Manchester City stars. Now, there are many Manchester City fans who are very hostile to Manchester United. England fans are especially hereditary. Children inherit the preferences of their parents and fall in love with a club. Therefore, although Manchester United's achievements are far greater than Manchester City, Manchester City fans have always regarded their favorite team as the real Manchester City. 's owner.
At the press conference the day before the game, Jin Tiger confidently told reporters that he would continue the good momentum of three consecutive victories and strive to win the derby in the same city.
However, the new Manchester City coach Pellegrini seemed very low-key. He did not predict the result of the game, but only told reporters that he would dedicate a wonderful Manchester derby to everyone.
Judging from all aspects of the pre-match situation, in this Manchester derby that tens of thousands of people are concerned about, most of the media are generally more optimistic about Kim Tiger's Manchester United.
In fact, before this game, Manchester City's recent record is actually better. Four rounds of the league have been played, and Manchester City is at the top of the list, with 12 points for their four wins; the second is King Tiger's Manchester United, with three wins and one draw with 10 points; Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton, ranked third to sixth; and Chelsea's performance during this period is not very good, with three consecutive draws, the league ranking has dropped to the top ten.
On the first day of the "Manchester Evening News", reporter Hall published an article, which analyzed the situation of the Premier League this season.
"The new season has only just started, and it is difficult to see the final trend of the league at this time, but it is certain that this season must be an interesting season. 'The most special one' Mourinho is back, 'The Engineer' Pellegrini took office, 'the successor of the Red Devils' Jin Tiger took office, Tottenham and Liverpool are also ready to go, Wenger's team is also looking forward to the long-lost league title. splash."
"Manchester United played against Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City in the first five rounds of the league, which was a big test for Kintiger. Kintiger's team drew Chelsea and beat Liverpool. Next, they will face each other. Let's wait and see what the final result of the duel against Manchester City will be!"
