In terms of tactics, as mentioned before, there are no secrets between the two teams. There have been three matches between the two teams in the season. Lin Sen has an absolute advantage, two wins and one draw. However, the league is different from the cup after all. The most comparable match is an FA Cup match. In that game, both teams seem to put too much energy into destroying each other’s rhythm, but the result is chaotic. It is also well known that Manchester City won the game, but it is not credible.
Perhaps it is in view of this that Lin Sen’s key exercise in the recent closed training is not a new array or a strange trick, but a common set-piece, which is a big concept, including Italian ball and corner kick penalty.
Not saying much about Italian and corner kicks has always been the most effective way to break the deadlock in the game-and penalty kicks …
This is the final. You have to consider all possible situations, don’t you? to be continued
Chapter seventy-two Relax
This is Ferguson’s fourth Champions League final.
The first two times he brought glory to Manchester United, and once he lost to Guardiola, which made Barcelona rise.
Ferguson didn’t want others to think that he was making excuses to lose his temper, but he also made no secret that part of the reason for the defeat was that Manchester United didn’t make perfect preparations before the game. This time, he tried his best to put pressure on opponents who had no experience in the Champions League final, and on the other hand, Ferguson’s most important thing was to try to reduce the pressure on his team.
This is the Champions League final. For many players, it is very likely that they will be able to sit in the stands and watch the game for a generation. Not all players are Mr. Big Scene or Mr. Big Heart. Even though most players in Manchester United have set foot on this game two seasons ago, it is the fourth time for Giggs and Scoles and others.
But the pressure is also
Ferguson decided to let the team go to London by train. The distance between Manchester and London is not too far or too close. It is more than two hours’ drive by train. In addition, Ferguson has even booked tickets for a musical for the team … All these show that Ferguson attaches great importance to this final.
Compared with Ferguson, who is meticulous in preparing for the game, Linsen is much more "irresponsible". Of course, to put it mildly, it is constant and changeable
Press conference before the final on May 20th.
With Kong Pani Linsen in the channel, he met Ferguson at the press conference. It still looked red. Ferguson took the lead in smiling and nodding at Linsen. I couldn’t see anything at all. Just a few days ago, in front of the media, he was still trying to provoke all Manchester City people, especially Linsen, who also kept a smile and nodded politely.
China people always pay attention to giving priority to the enemy before the enemy in the football field, which is also a rule. Now it is the "ceremony" stage. Speaking of it, Linsen and Sir Alex Ferguson have had more than one drink. Although they can’t talk about forgetting friends, their private life is not an enemy. Of course, it is public or private.
After Ferguson and Nemanja Vidic left, Linsen deliberately stopped to look back at the other person’s back. Only when they were far away did he turn his head and say "sorry Vincent" to Kong Pani, who had been waiting for him.
"Nothing boss" Kong Pani smiled "I know you must have your reasons"
The press conference before the game is supposed to be led by the head coach, but in fact, Kong Pani is not the captain of Manchester City. The real captain is still Dunn’s starting position in Dunn season. David Lewis replaced Lin Sen, who didn’t take off his armband. It seems a little melodramatic, but this is how Lin Sen handled it. Of course, Manchester City still needs a field captain, and this person is Kong Pani. At the beginning of this season, Manchester City once had some objections, because some people thought that the captain’s armband should be given to Richards, but then this objection gradually disappeared with Kong Pani’s performance.
Lin Senxiao smiled and didn’t say anything about shoulder feeling, which seems to have gained another point.
Kong Pani speaker Xin Linsen is interested in the listener.
The letter that reveals the meaning can especially touch people. Isn’t Kong Pani dialect actually the representative of the thoughts of many players in Manchester City? They absolutely believe that even if their head coach acts according to the slightest reason, and this kind of letter can’t be white-handed, and there can’t be any kingliness that can make players feel sincere about themselves, and that is victory.
But at this time, isn’t it another kind of pressure to believe like this?
As soon as Lin Sen and Kong Pani entered the conference hall, it was a shutter. They were used to walking into the conference hall and were about to be "dizzy". Lin Sen was used to finding his own seat.
After the press conference started, everything was just the same old story. In the past week, Linsen had to face several long or short interviews with a Champions League final almost every day. It was important, but where did so many questions stand up to the media’s tireless questioning for a week?
"Mr. Lin, I’m from the Daily Mirror …" A reporter who was allowed to get up after the question session began.
"I know you, Mr. Kerry." Before the reporter introduced himself, Linsen interrupted him with a smile and a wave. "You said something bad about me."
There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and Kerry was suddenly embarrassed.
Lin Sen’s "bad words" are true, and it is precisely the FA Cup that Ferguson just attended. After that game, it was this Kerry reporter who was on Manchester United’s side in the post-game report and hinted that Manchester City could enter the FA Cup final. It was a lucky dog. Kerry obviously didn’t expect Lin Sen to remember this.
"I think I still have to ask Mr. Lilin," said Kerry, a little angry.
"Of course, Mr. Kerry," Lin Sen laughed. "I’m waking you up. You can skip the self-introduction link."
The scene is a chuckle.
……
Lin Sen didn’t really plan to run Kerry, not that he was open-minded, but that a reporter like him is really ordinary, but if you still want to deal with the media, you won’t be able to deal with the press conference where similar people are, half-joking and half-serious, so ridiculing Kerry is not to tell everyone, including his own players.
He is very relaxed.
May 29th.
"Welcome to London! Welcome to Wembley Stadium! " The female reporter of Tianshi TV is holding a microphone and broadcasting live to the camera, while many of her colleagues are doing similar things near her. The background of the magnificent Wembley Stadium introduces to their respective audiences that a game will be held in this stadium in a few hours.
People are already crowded around them. From Manchester to London, a huge population migration is bound to happen today, and Derby is experienced in dealing with it. The London police have already made full preparations for this, saying that five steps, one post, ten steps and one whistle may be a bit too much, but it is not much worse in reality. Who knows what will happen in Derby? For them, they must respond in the worst case.
In the square, fans from both sides either shouted slogans or sang team songs and walked past the camera.
Red and blue are destined to occupy the largest city in Britain today.
At this time, Richard Burgess, the host of the studio hall of Sky TV, is chatting with two heavyweights, and the topic is naturally the upcoming highlight.
"Gary, I know that Sir Charlton said in an interview a while ago that he was not optimistic that Manchester United could make a breakthrough in the Champions League because this season looks more like a transitional period for Manchester United. Do you think it is understandable that this sentence is lucky for Manchester United to reach the final?" As he spoke, chance looked at the man sitting on his left.
This opinion is very familiar to Manchester City and Manchester United fans. Gary Neville, the former Manchester United captain who just announced his retirement in February this year, is also a right-back sitting opposite him, but his color is not Manchester City Red but Manchester City Blue. The former Manchester City player and Lin Sen are also from Sunhai, China.
I have to say that Sky TV is indeed an exception. Such a pair of guests can get it if they don’t want to invite them at ordinary times. Gary has always been a flag-fresh anti-Manchester City fighter, and Sun Hai should be in China outside Wan Li at this time.
"No" for Gith’s words, Gary Neville frowned and shook his head decisively. "Luck is an ingredient in the football match, but the team that can reach the final can’t explain Sir Charlton just by luck. I have also heard that you have missed half of the sentence. He also said that the integration of Hernandez and other new signings and Rooney’s outstanding performance have greatly changed the situation. Sir Charlton said that it was Manchester United at the beginning of the season and now Manchester United has all the conditions to win the championship!"
"But you have to admit that Manchester United is not more dominant than Manchester City in terms of cards, right?" For his "out-of-context" was caught by Gary Neville, Gith was completely surprised and something went wrong.
"Of course, we lost a player like Ronaldo in the season, and the team can’t recover so quickly in this situation. We lost the league title in the season, but that was the season," said Gary, shrugging his shoulders.
Chance nodded with a smile and finally stopped "teasing" Gary, but turned his head to the other side.
"Sun, we all know that there are not many faces in China in European football. I think Lin should be regarded as the most famous Chinese in Europe now, isn’t he?"
"In China, it is also Mr. Chance." Sun Haixiao laughed.
"Older than you?" Burgess bad asked 1 with a smile.
"Of course," Sun Hai joked with a shrug. "I have never been to the Champions League final."
Gith suddenly burst into laughter, just like Gary Neville. After brewing an atmosphere, he began to dig holes for each other.
"So as you said, this is the first Champions League final in Manchester City’s history and the first Champions League final in Lin’s coaching career, and Sir Alex Ferguson of Manchester United has had three such experiences. Don’t you think …"
At this point, chance deliberately paused for a moment before slowly saying, "Is Lin too young for Sir Alex Ferguson?" to be continued
Chapter seventy-three Enemy before the enemy
Tender is not a positive word in most cases, and the eye is obviously no exception.
Sun Hai naturally knows what Burgess wants to do, especially after he has just seen what he has done to Gary Neville. Sun Hai remains calm on this issue, and there is no reaction on the surface.
Today, he appears here with two identities: one is his former Manchester City player identity, and the other is that he is the same as Linsen. Although he is a former owner of Manchester City, he is a good friend of Manchester City. Since Sun Hai has appeared here, it is naturally impossible to sit back and watch Manchester City become a "backward" party. Frankly speaking, apart from his nationality and Linsen, they are not connected, let alone meeting each other.
"That depends on how you look at the word tender," Sun Hai said with a smile. "If you are younger than age and seniority, then of course Lin is tender in front of Ferguson, and I think most coaches are so in this respect, but if it is better than record, I think Lin is the dominant player at present, isn’t it?"
Said Sun Hai out of the corner of his eye glanced at Gary, opposite.
Talk about tit for tat. Although this is what Gith wants to see most, although Sun Hai and Gary Neville have been fighting each other for a long time because their positions are almost diagonal, there are not many opportunities for them to face each other on the court. In terms of fame, Sun Hai is certainly not as big as the other, but this does not mean that he should be modest at this time.
