Chapter 388 There are rumors everywhere

Four consecutive away first-game League Cup away challenge Skenthorpe!

This is the first time in the history of the two sides. Ferguson chose to fly to Spain to watch the next Champions League opponent Valencia, and assistant coach McPhailan temporarily directed the game. Manchester United rotated all 11 starting players, Hernandez, Owen and Machida formed the frontline trident, and the recovered Ferdinand and new Smarin joined the central defender. New aid Bibby entered the bench for the first time.

Manchester United defeated Skenthorpe 5:2 with a full second-tier lineup!

In Manchester United's 2-2 victory over Skenthorpe in the League Cup, England striker Owen scored two goals. He said he hoped that Ferguson would give him more opportunities in the future.

The European text field not only started, but also filled the whole game. Unfortunately, Ferguson went to watch the La Liga match of Valencia, his opponent in the Champions League group stage, and did not see Owen's performance on the spot. However, scoring two goals still gave the England striker great confidence.

"At Skencerp, we played well, and I'm glad to see that some strong teams have been eliminated," Owen said. "There are many players who need to play the first game of the season, some have just recovered from injury, and some have not played much in the league, which is very helpful."

"We have now entered a stage. The Champions League, the League Cup have begun, and the league. I'm sure I will play more games."

For Owen's performance, Perlan, the assistant coach of Manchester United, praised it. Owen performed well. He showed that he was an absolute top shooter. Tonight, he contributed to all aspects and ran a lot.

In this game, Manchester United's new assistant winger Bibby also got a chance to play as a substitute. This is his first team appearance. Although he didn't have much time to perform, it also gave the 20-year-old Portuguese a lot of confidence.

"I will become an excellent player of Manchester United," Bibby said. "Coach Ferguson told me that he is very satisfied with me and hopes that I can train more and start entering the first team. I don't know when I can play again. It depends on the coach's arrangement."

Ferguson's visit is not only to observe the next opponent, but also to observe people!

Although Manchester United's main goalkeeper Van der Sar is old and strong and has repeatedly contributed to excellent performances, it is Ferguson's top priority to find a suitable successor for him. According to Spanish media reports, Manchester United coach Ferguson flew to Spain this week, but he is not going on vacation to relax, but to take a close look at Atletico Madrid's talented goalkeeper De Gea.

Atletico Madrid drew 1-1 with Valencia in this round of the league, while Ferguson watched the performance of his favorite person in the stands. Although Valencia is the upcoming opponent of Manchester United in the Champions League, the Lord's move can be regarded as spying on the military situation, but the Spanish media does not think so. As believes that the real purpose of Ferguson's trip is to investigate Atletico's 19-year-old genius goalkeeper De Gea. The As also analyzed their inference, because Ferguson rarely goes abroad to study the game of future opponents. This task is done by his assistant. Another point is that it is the goalkeeper coach of Manchester United who accompanied Ferguson to Spain. The British media also gave the same report. Manchester United's main goalkeeper Van der Sar will turn 40 next month. Finding a suitable successor for him is exactly what Manchester United is doing now.

La Liga has played four rounds. As the main goalkeeper of Atletico Madrid, De Gea has played all four games, and he has left a deep impression on people with his excellent performance.

In the data ranking of the first four rounds of La Liga, De Gea is at the top of the goalkeeper's save list with 21 saves and a success rate of 84.0%. In the third round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid lost 1-2 to the defending champion Barcelona, but even the opponent gave him a compliment after the game. Barcelona coach Guardiola was full of praise for De Gea's performance. "He is an excellent goalkeeper who has prevented a lot of attacks. We should have been 5 to 1 Win."

De Gea was born in November 1990. He joined Atletico Madrid at the age of 10. Last season, he occupied the position of Atletico Madrid's main goalkeeper with his superpower and helped Atletico Madrid win the Europa League championship.

At the European Super Cup held at the end of last month, De Gea once again became the absolute hero of Atletico Madrid to win the cup. It was he who saved Mirito's penalty in the final stage of the game and killed the counterattack hope of Triple Crown Inter Milan with his own strength. Atletico Madrid fans also compare their idol with Manchester United's great goalkeeper Van der Sar, calling him "Van der Gea".

De Gea's excellent performance is naturally seen by the national team coach Bosc. Although he failed to enter Spain's 23-man list of the World Cup in South Africa, Bosc, who selected him into the 30-person preparation list, knows that Spain's goalkeeper position no longer has to worry about the future.

However, Atletico Madrid will not let their gold fall by others. They have already bid 25 million euros for De Gea. Ferguson has to work hard to get this talented goalkeeper.

After watching the game, the old man immediately rushed back to the United Kingdom to command the next round of the Premier League against Bolton.

Manchester United has lost only one game in the last 15 games between the two sides, which is also Manchester United's only defeat in the Premier League. The two sides have played 22 games in the Premier League history. Manchester United has the upper hand with 15 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, including 7 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss away. The two sides have had 117 historical confrontations, with Manchester United with 51 wins, 24 draws and 42 losses. Ferguson continued to maintain the starting lineup of last week's league victory over Liverpool, but Ferdinand, who returned in the middle of the week, did not even enter the bench. Bolton goalkeeper Jas Kleinen lifted the ban and made a comeback.

Bolton made a perfect start in the 6th minute. Kevin Davis' cross was cleared, and Li Qinglong's shot outside the edge of the penalty area was blocked by Evra and the left column was deflected. Then Martin Petrov made a corner kick, and the unguarded Knight blocked the outside of the edge of the penalty area, and the ball hit the inside of the right column and entered the net.

Manchester United equalized the score in the 23rd minute. Rooney passed the ball. Nani began to break through 45 yards from the midfield to get rid of the two. The Portuguese decisively shot against the two defenders in the arc of the penalty area, and the ball hit the lower left corner.

Recently, the performance of the Portuguese wingers has become more and more eye-catching, and Rooney's pass also indicates that Manchester United No. 10 is gradually recovering.

1:1!

Li Yu has always been strictly guarded by his opponents, but his leadership is also very useful. When Bolton is in a panic, he is always the first to find Manchester United No. 9, and other Manchester United players have more opportunities.

Bolton's almost melee defense temporarily limited Li Yu's performance in the first half!

From the second half, Bolton, the home team of Reebok Stadium, was the first to take the lead!

Bolton took the lead again in the 67th minute. Nani's corner kick was cleared. Martin Petrov made a precise oblique pass, Li Qinglong and Elmand a continuous oblique pass. Martin Petrov's shot after shaking Park Jixing on the left side of the penalty area hit Fletcher and deflected into the near corner, 2-1.

Manchester United, which is good at counterattacking, was successfully counterattacked by Bolton, and Ferguson's defense has now become so fragile!

There is no other way, Manchester United can only continue to attack.

Fletcher was replaced by Owen, and Manchester United formed a trident attack.

Manchester United equalized the score again in the 74th minute. Park Ji-sung won a free kick on the right side. Nani passed into the penalty area. Owen headed the ball 10 yards ahead and rubbed it back. The ball hit the inside of the left post and entered the net. This is his first league goal since February, 2-2.

Owen replied to all the questioning voices with a goal. Look at his crazy goal celebration, you will know how long he has been waiting for this moment!

I have to say that Li Yu's involvement is actually the key to the goal. Manchester United No. 9 alone took away two tall defensive players, which gave Owen a good opportunity.

In the next game, Bolton players fought fiercely in the whole game. In the 80th minute, there were signs of physical fitness. The defensive pressure on Manchester United No. 9 was finally decreasing, and the role of Mr. Li Yu's key was about to be staged again.

In the 85th minute, Li Yu received a cross pass from Scholes. For most of the game, Li Yu kept passing the ball to her teammates, which was creating opportunities for her teammates.

Li Yu's defense of Li Yu's Ricz and Holden were supposed to think that Manchester United No. 9 would pass the ball.

They were wrong. Li Yu had to do it alone this time. She looked at the right time, shook her ankles, and sent the football out.

Ritz and Holden looked at each other in surprise and felt a red figure passing between the two.

Yes, they were shocked and thought that the task was well completed. They didn't expect that Manchester United 9 would be as fast as the opening.

"LEE... LEE!" Jasklenin roared!

Li Yu got rid of the ball and shot angrily!

With a muffled sound, the football was shot at the goal by him with grass chips!

This time it is within the door frame!

Yasklenin flew to the left and then slapped the football out with his palms!

"What a beautiful save!"

However, a beautiful save can't save Bolton. After Yas Kleinen met the football, he did not completely change the trajectory of the football, and the ball still scored!

3:2!

Li Yu's world wave helped Manchester United take the lead again.

Ferguson quickly made a substitution decision, replacing Li Yu with Park Zhixing, and Rooney was also replaced by Maceda.

The two people in a row are suspected of procrastination, and the fans of Reebok Stadium are also using boos to express their dissatisfaction.

Soon, after 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the end whistle.

3:2!

Manchester United have won the final victory in two consecutive away games!

The past weekend can definitely be called a black weekend for the giants in European football. The 10 big teams played in Europe only achieved 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses this weekend, with a winning rate of only 30%. And last season's La Liga champion Barcelona and Serie A giants AC Milan. Finally, Manchester United won the narrow victory, becoming the only three lucky people this weekend.

Manchester United defeated the relegation team Bolton by relying on Li Yu's final kill away from home after falling behind twice; defending champion Chelsea lost 0-1 to Manchester City on the road; Arsenal unexpectedly lost to the promoted Massibromevic 2-2 at home, and was very angry after the game. Glianhu didn't know that this was his own team; Liverpool struggled to draw with the middle and lower team Sunderland at home with Gerard's savior; Real Madrid was tied by the promoted Levante team on the road; Inter was defeated by Roma striker Vusic at the last minute and didn't even get a single point; Bayern was beaten by the unknown Mainz at home. Beat 2-1.

Seven of the top ten teams in Europe failed to score all three points this weekend, only 3 draws and 4 losses! The only three giants left to win this weekend are Barcelona and AC Milan. Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao, who was sent off early, 3-1 on the road. Milan defeated the visiting Genoa 1-0 at home with Ibrahimovic's goal.

The rich families have collectively encountered a black weekend, which has only happened once in the past two years.

On the weekend from August 29 to September 1, 2008, Manchester United first lost 1-2 to Zenit St. Petersburg in the European Super Cup; then Mourinho's Inter played 1-1 against Sampdoria away; then Chelsea was forced to 1-1 by Tottenham at home in the Premier League; and AC Milan What's more, they lost 1-2 at home to the promoted Ma Bologna; Liverpool and Aston Villa played against each other, and the main striker Torres unfortunately suffered a thigh injury... The colder colder is still behind. Barcelona lost 0-1 away to the promoted Manumancia in the first round of La Liga; Juventus played 1-1 against Fiorentina away; The unpopularity continues. Real Madrid lost 1-2 away to A Coruña, and even Bremen and Roma, who are not rich, suffered a draw or lose.

The only two lucky people are Bayern and Arsenal, the former who beat Hertha Berlin 4-1 at home, while the latter also beat Newcastle 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium.

If the weekend two years ago was because it coincided with the first round of Serie A and La Liga, the strong entered the state slowly, and Manchester United was distracted from playing the European Super Cup. If such a result (10 giants 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses) is still understandable, then this weekend, in the case of several rounds of the league opening, the giants collectively In the role of black humor (10 giants, 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses), the factors of the Champions League cannot be mentioned.

In the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage next week, Inter will play against the nemesis Bremen, Manchester United away from home against La Liga leader Valencia, and Chelsea at home against the new champion of Ligue 1 Marseille. For these three giants, this round is a key round to lay the prospect of qualifying.

Therefore, you can't be careless in the face of a strong enemy. Tottenham Hotspur, which ranked fourth in the Premier League last season, lost 0-1 away to deputy squad leader West Ham in this round, which was also due to the distraction of the Champions League. Relatively speaking, the domestic league season is long, and the temporary gains and losses cannot determine the final record of the season.

Almost all the giants focus on the Champions League, and Manchester United are lucky to get 3 points!

Next, Manchester United will keep rushing to Spain.

In the team that went on the expedition, Li Yu naturally became the target of Spanish media pursuit.

Judging from the hot goal status of Manchester United No. 9, the Spanish media has regarded Li Yu as the key player in the game.

Man Lenovo's score in Valencia depends on Li Yu's performance.

In this regard, Li Yu seems to be relatively modest. In the face of media questions, he did not take all the goals to himself. The whole team is the key. Without the transportation of other players, it is impossible for him to score so many goals. Manchester United is strong as a whole.

Well said, it's just a bit like an official statement.

Spain's Marca newspaper has found another way to remind the Spanish team. They summarized the position and way of every goal scored by Li Yu in the new season.

However, Marca News itself also found a problem. Li Yu's scoring methods in the new season are so rich that Manchester United's No. 9 can score goals in all positions.

Soon, all the media in Spain supporting Real Madrid took Manchester United No. 9 to fight against Barcelona's strength in La Liga. If C Ronaldo adds Li Yu, Barcelona will not be Real Madrid's opponent at all.

Li Yu can be connected with transfer rumors everywhere, but he is not the only one in Manchester United.

It seems that Rooney's state will continue to be depressed, but "People" shows the real reason for his "unusual" performance today.

According to the newspaper, Jenny, the first heroine of Rooney's "prostitute" will go to Reebok Stadium to watch the game of Manchester United. Of course, strictly speaking, she came for Rooney. Maybe it's to show his "ability" again in front of the old love, or maybe it's to block the British media and calm down the disturbance as soon as possible with his performance. Rooney, who wanted to score goals and make contributions too much in this game, collapsed because of too much pressure. Unlike Li Yu, Rooney was finally replaced by "disgraceful".

After that, the News of the World gave further news. In order to completely put an end to Rooney's "sex scandal" happening to other players, head coach Ferguson has even strictly banned his players from attending parties and banquets of any significance. The newspaper said that even the Christmas celebration will be together. Cancel.

"Players are always busy shuttling through the streets of the city in their spare time, going to a variety of different bars and nightclubs, and now Ferguson has closed the door. Originally, the Christmas activities were colorful, but now everyone can only go home for the holiday. An internal official revealed.

In such an embarrassing situation in the team, Rooney, as the team's number one superstar, is very much like Beckham, the "brother" before the transfer to Real Madrid, but this time, the invitation to the English striker is another giant in Spain: Barcelona. Barcelona's senior management is paying close attention to Rooney's movements and his difficult situation in England. An internal Barcelona official told the Mirror: "Of course, the transfer will be carried out immediately, but if Rooney's problems in the team are aggravated and he himself considers changing the environment, we will show enough sincerity."

Previously, it was reported that Rooney had just rejected the renewal of the contract proposed by Manchester United with a weekly salary of 140,000 pounds. Now with the aftermath of the prostitution incident, coupled with his own downturn, perhaps Rooney has really had the idea of leaving.

However, Barcelona already has the best Villa, and there are geniuses like Pedro on standby at any time. There is no need to spend a lot of money to buy the Manchester United's top card. As for Ferguson, he will not easily let go of Rooney, the local popular king who is only 24 years old. .

There are all kinds of rumors in an away game of the Champions League.
