Chapter 833 Kill Them All

"This is an amazing work of art!"

Mortensen gave this goal the highest praise...well, it was a bit exaggerated.

However, Vertonghen really made no mistake. He secretly grabbed the hem of Sun Wu's jersey with his left hand, stepped sideways between Sun Wu and the goal, and used his strong body to press the opponent.

But Vertonghen did not expect Sun Wu to send the pass in this way.

With his left foot planted on the turf, he pushed Vertonghen hard with his left hand, and at the same time stretched out his right foot to stop Thomas Muller's cross.

The ball did not hit the ground. Sun Wu bumped it slightly, twice...and then suddenly knocked the ball behind him with his heel, and deliberately hit the ball high.

Vertonghen, whose sight was blocked by Sun Wu, had no time to react.

Lloris, who was blocked by Sun Wu and Vertonghen, had no time to react.

Eriksen had already rushed into the penalty area, but could not catch up... Lukaku jumped high and squeezed Blind aside. He twisted his waist and shook his head in the air, and the ball flew into the goal without any suspense.

"The feel of the ball is really good." Mike Phelan praised on the sidelines: "His feeling of stopping the ball is very similar to Paul."

"Scholes?" Miguel disagreed, shook his head and said, "More like the Ice Prince during the Gunners period."

Being defeated by this goal that could compete for the best goal of the season, both Vertonghen and Lloris were frustrated, as was Van Gaal on the sidelines.

Theoretically, Tottenham's defense made no mistakes. Although Thomas Muller was unmarked, he was not very threatening when passing the ball, and no one was missed in the penalty area. However, Sun Wu used his heel to turn everything into something magical.

Van Gaal's face turned red. This season he wanted to stage the return of the king, but half a season later he discovered that others didn't take him seriously.

After taking a 1-0 lead, Tottenham did not rush to equalize the score. Instead, they recovered and even gave up possession of the ball in an attempt to counterattack.

The three teams of Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool all have the same characteristics. They often score consecutive goals in a short period of time to kill the game.

But Manchester United, who regained possession of the ball, disappointed Van Gaal. Sun Wu retreated and steadily controlled the rhythm to wear out the rest of the first half.

During the halftime break, Pochettino gave a rare compliment to Sun Wu for his assist.

In his opinion, Sun Wu is the team captain, a world-class midfielder, and also serves as the team's assistant coach, so he should produce a beautiful report card.

But unlike Mourinho, Pochettino, a former Argentina international central defender, is very aware of the difficulty of Sun Wu's assist.

From the choices that fans thought about, to the effortless stop and bump of the ball, to the back-heel knock of the ball without looking back, Pochettino smiled and admitted, "I was very lucky. There was no Best when I was playing football."

The atmosphere in the locker room was lively, but just 5 minutes into the second half, Pochettino frowned. Lingard, who started to replace the injured Herrera, was also injured. He was injured in the knee by Dembele's flying tackle. .

Luke Shaw and Januzaj haven't come out yet, Alderweireld has gone in, Herrera has gone in, and now it's Lingard's turn...

"Manchester United is really unlucky this season. Fortunately, the central defender position is not seriously injured. So far, only Alderweireld has been injured." Zhan Jun said with a smile: "Although the midfielder and frontcourt are constantly injured, , but relatively speaking there are more rotation players.”

In fact, Zhan Jun's thoughts... Miguel and Dr. Sver also mentioned it some time ago. Fortunately, the central defender is not seriously injured. Sun Wu sneered at this. Please, if it weren't for me, Phil Jones. Is the famous injury king of the Premier League good?

Seeing Lingard receiving treatment on the sidelines, Van Gaal roared and directed Spurs to press forward as he tried to equalize despite being ahead in numbers.

But Sun Wu once again disappointed Van Gaal.

In the 54th minute, Dembele and Fellaini both pressed forward, but Sun Wu insisted not to pass forward, but played two consecutive coordination games in the middle with Griezmann and Thomas Muller, who were temporarily pulled back.

"Griezmann...very tacit understanding...Sun Wu speeds up!"

"Oh, foul, Fellaini knocked down Sun Wu."

This was an undisputed tactical foul. Sun Wu, who had already speeded up, wiped it out first. Fellaini reflexively reached out and pulled Sun Wu down.

"Fuck, bullshit dive!" Van Gaal jumped on the sidelines and yelled. Although he couldn't see clearly from a distance, it didn't stop him from yelling at the Chinese.

Vertonghen and Rose both came forward, but instead of blaming Sun Wu, they begged the referee... Fellaini had already received a yellow card in the first half.

Fellaini smiled bitterly and reached out to pull Sun Wu up, who blinked.

Among the players who were forced to leave Manchester United, Fellaini and Sun Wu had the best relationship.

Last season, Sun Wu made Fellaini a key weapon in the away group match against Barcelona, ​​and finally managed to get a draw.

Sun Wu also publicly criticized Januzaj on the training ground several times for Fellaini, who had a lackluster professional attitude. He left Manchester United only because his technical characteristics did not conform to Manchester United's tactical system.

"You can't blame me." Sun Wu shrugged and pointed at Dembele, "You guys are too flat and have no hierarchy."

Everything is in his plan. Once he breaks through Fellaini and Dembele, Tottenham is very likely to lose the ball. The key is that Tottenham's formation is in the front, with the two midfielders standing in parallel, and there is no front or rear depth protection. Once Breakthrough, they can only commit a tactical foul.

Fellaini sighed and said nothing. Seeing that the referee still took out the second yellow card, he could only end the game sadly.

Seeing Fellaini being sent off, Pochettino struck while the iron was hot and replaced Lingard, who was still trying to hold on, with Mane. Fletcher was not included in the squad for this game, and the only defensive midfielder position was Carrick, who has poor mobility. , with 11 against 10 and still leading by one goal, Pochettino wanted to try this new formation.

After Mane came on the field, Thomas Muller moved to the center, Sun Wu's position became more flexible, and the two edges Ashley Young and Valencia also boldly pressed forward. For a time, the Tottenham goal was full of chaos.

In the 63rd minute, Sun Wu received a cross pass from Valencia on the right rib and made a beautiful No Look Pass. Mane entered the small penalty area and passed the ball vigorously. There was chaos in front of him, and Dembele accidentally scored. Own goals.

2-0, 3 points is no problem. Sun Wu glanced at the angry Van Gaal on the sidelines and decided to kill him!

In the 68th minute, Sun Wu suddenly stepped back on the ball after cooperating with Ashley Young on the left. Griezmann sent the ball directly into the penalty area with his left foot. Lukaku and Felton were in front. Henry both missed, and Thomas Muller from behind beat Blind and scored with a header.

"Thomas plays in the middle, Rojo is more adaptable than Jones." Jesus reminded Pochettino in a low voice, "The Argentine has a wider range of activities and is faster. Even if he makes the first mistake, he still has a chance to recover."

Just now Thomas Muller rushed into the penalty area to grab the point. In order to keep the formation in line, Schneiderlin also pressed forward to the 30-meter area. The one who pushed into the midfield was Argentine defender Rojo.

Pochettino said nothing and only nodded slightly, but if Alderweireld comes back, it will be difficult for Rojo to steal the main position from Phil Jones. The latter has performed very well in the past two seasons and is now... The absolute main defender for both the national team and the club.

Stable, focused, tenacious, accurate in positioning, powerful in the air and not too slow.

Another point is also very important. Compared with Manchester United in the Ferguson era, only Phil Jones has a stable main position. Valencia and Ashley Young were not the absolute main players back then. Secondly, they I was playing winger back then.

The Manchester United coaching staff is already discussing the pros and cons of the new formation, and Van Gaal is already ashen-faced. He is trying to remember... When I was kicked out by Hoeness, what was the score of Schalke 04 against Bayern?

Sun Wu really went all out this time. In the past year, Van Gaal, who was dismissed from Manchester United, was the head coach of the Dutch national team, but his side job was to constantly evaluate Manchester United's tactics. Among them, Manchester United was defeated by Ma This game was eliminated by Van Gaal and he was heavily criticized.

Sun Wu has had more than one or two encounters with many head coaches, such as Mourinho, Heynckes, Guardiola, Wenger, and Klopp. Most of them had grievances, but he only hated Van Gaal.

In the 78th minute, Sun Wu dunked past Dembele outside the penalty area and curled the ball with his left foot into the far corner, 4-0.

In the 85th minute, Klose, who came on as a substitute, received a cross from Valencia and scored from the penalty spot, 5-0.

At this time, the live camera showed Tottenham Chairman Levy at the top of the stands at White Hart Lane. The bald Jew looked very ugly. I wonder if he was thinking about when to kick Van Gaal out.

In the end, this game, which Klopp and Guardiola had high hopes for, ended with a 6-0 disparity. It was Rashford who came on as a substitute to score the last goal for Manchester United.
