Chapter 164 What is Route 66? (Fourth update)
Klopp in the next coaching booth took off the baseball cap that he never took off his head.
Ashley Young single-handedly restricted Salah, while Chamberlain and Arnold... "Bad defense! Neither of them even touched the ball!"
"At that time, he was still thinking about stealing the ball with his feet, bumping into him, pulling him, hugging him. There are so many ways to stop Manchester United's No. 7!"
"But you chose the stupidest way!"
Klopp yelled angrily towards the field, his golden hair looking extremely messy in the wind.
The assistant coaches were silent. Although they wanted to defend Arnold, they all knew that they could not talk back at this time, otherwise they would be greeted with a harsher reprimand.
The game on the green field has resumed.
Mourinho gave instructions on the sidelines, asking Manchester United players to strengthen their penetration into the middle and transfer the ball to the left once there was an opportunity.
In fact, his adjustment is not that simple and straightforward.
When to attack, where to attack, and who will attack have all been carefully considered.
For example, if Liverpool's right-side defense exposed huge problems, he would try his best to expose this weakness through targeted arrangements and launch continuous attacks.
After receiving the ball, Chu Feng did not pass or cut with his teammates in the middle, but rushed directly towards Arnold with the ball.
Cycling, pendulum, high-speed direction changes. Various breakthrough techniques were used in turn. In just a few minutes, Arnold was passed twice. It really became an unobstructed "Route 66".
Chamberlain did not dare to move forward to participate in the pressure, and stayed in the backcourt to assist in the defense.
If Lovren had not made timely defensive moves, Manchester United would probably have continued to expand their score advantage. Chu Feng alone destroyed Liverpool's wing system.
Beep-beep! Soon the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. The tense nerves of the Liverpool players relaxed immediately and they finally made it to the halftime break.
They were under too much pressure during this period and moved most of their forces to the flanks.
Pogba on the other side can dribble the ball forward quickly, posing a huge threat whether passing or shooting.
You have to know that this is Mr. Billionaire!
As long as he doesn't get sick, he is one of the strongest midfielders in active service.
Arnold walked towards the locker room in a somewhat depressed mood. When he usually played against other players, they would pass the ball to each other back and forth.
And today?
He felt that he was completely crushed. Not only did he fail to play to his strengths on the offensive end, but his weaknesses on the defensive end were also severely exposed.
Arnold looked at Chu Feng's back, suddenly felt a nameless anger, and clenched his fists tightly.
In fact, he has always had a bad temper, and this irritability is also reflected in the game.
If he had been able to make a calmer judgment, he would not have been in such a miserable situation.
Chu Feng seemed to notice something, looked back, but didn't take it too seriously.
He wished Arnold could be a little angrier, which would make it easier for him to break through and even use this to create a set piece or a penalty.
certainly.
If Arnold also wants to imitate Trippier, he does not recommend giving Arnold an elbow to calm him down.
After returning to the locker room.
"Liverpool will definitely strengthen their defense on the right side in the second half. Chu, you need to retreat about 5-15 meters and pull Liverpool's defensive formation back and forth, so that their pressure system will no longer be complete."
"If there is an opportunity, you can also try to pass diagonally to Mata between Liverpool's third and second lines of defense."
"At this time, the midfield players, with Pogba as the core, quickly advanced and formed a numerical advantage on the right side."
“.”
Mourinho spoke in detail about the tactical adjustments made in the second half.
The Manchester United players leaned against the cabinet and nodded in understanding.
Another dressing room.
After Klopp gave his disciples a chicken soup, he called Arnold to the corner of the locker room and said, "Remember, learning how to transform anger into strength is a necessary process of growth."
“.”
Klopp knew that Arnold's mentality would definitely explode after being repeatedly broken through, so he gave him earnest advice and comfort.
If Arnold did not play an important role in Liverpool's right side system, he would have replaced Arnold before the end of the first half.
Now we can only coax him, otherwise he will probably get a red card in the second half.
The fifteen-minute break passed quickly and Old Trafford returned to its bustle.
During the interval before kick-off, the director turned the camera to the stands.
Sir Alex Ferguson and David Beckham were chatting and laughing about the game.
However, the latter had a faintly visible scar at the corner of his eyebrow.
They had no contact for 12 years after the boot-gate incident. It was not until the charity friendly match in 2015 that the once harmonious master and apprentice reconciled and often came together to watch Manchester United's games.
The camera turned and Sir Dalglish's face was not looking good. He came to Old Trafford to watch Manchester United make a fool of themselves, but the score on the field reminded him of the last Manchester derby.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It was such a joyous day to name the Anfield stand, but the old man thought it was a lifelong stain.
Beep! With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began.
Manchester United tried to move forward after the kick-off, but soon lost the ball under Liverpool's crazy pressing, so they simply moved the entire formation backwards.
In Mourinho's football philosophy, the longer you control the ball, the greater the risk of making mistakes.
At moments like the transition from offense to defense, the opponent's line organization is the most fragile and can easily be broken up by sharp counterattacks.
So giving the ball to Liverpool was part of the plan.
Liverpool did not show any mercy and launched a violent attack.
Chamberlain and Arnold had originally given up marking Chu Feng and followed up to participate in the overall attack.
The meaning is obvious.
If our offense does not improve, Manchester United will counterattack and score.
They admitted it!
Not every team has this desperate attitude.
Simple pass and cut!
Running like crazy! Attacking at all costs!
The Liverpool fans in the away stands were re-excited and started a heavy metal frenzy unique to Liverpool.
Manchester United is like a small boat in the vast ocean, trying its best to resist the continuous stormy waves.
53rd minute of the game.
Arnold and Chamberlain passed the midfield through a series of wall passes. He suddenly changed direction to avoid Chu Feng's interception and ran along the sideline with the ball.
Klopp once said something.
"Five Arnolds can't defend against one Arnold!"
This reflects his talent on the offensive end. The last person to be said like this was Marcelo.
Liverpool's front players moved quickly.
Salah moved inwards to the half-space, taking Ashley Young away and creating space on the wing for Arnold.
Firmino repeated the same trick and retreated to the top of the penalty area.
Mane shuttled back and forth between Manchester United's defense, harassing David Luiz and Smalling.
