On the other hand, the whole Barcelona team also warmed up and returned to the North locker room.

Guardiola was completely relieved to see Clement not even appearing among Aston Villa’s warm-up players.

According to Guardiola's idea, even if Clement cannot play, he will watch his teammates warm up on the sidelines to cheer everyone up.

He thought about it for a while, and the only explanation was that Fang Jue refused to let Clement appear there in order to avoid affecting morale:

The players glanced at Clement, who was on crutches, and might feel panicked.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the truth was. Guardiola sighed and shook his head. In fact, he wanted to touch Aston Villa with a neat lineup. Unfortunately, Manchester United people...

"For some reason, Guardiola's team will definitely attack at the beginning."

"So, the first thing we have to do is to be on defense."

"Clement, are you ready to surprise our old opponents?" Fang Jue asked.

"I've been suffocated for a long time." Clement said in a depressing manner.

Everyone burst into laughter.

"Okay, listen to me, withstand Barcelona's first wave of offensives, we will fight a defensive counterattack."

"Note that the defensive counterattack I mentioned is not a passive retreat, and the whole game forms a pressing against Barcelona."

"Xavi! He is Barcelona's midfield core, pressing him and doing everything possible to cut off his connection with others."

"Once you have the opportunity to fight back, push it out without hesitation!" Fang Jue pointed out Clement's name, "You are under great pressure today. When your teammates press it out, the midfield protection work will be left to you."

"The back line can adapt to current pressure. We have practiced the tactics of offside many times. Pay attention and must be unified in the movements."

"Messi!" Fang Jue knocked on the tactical board, "Messi has strong one-on-one ability, and others do a good job of restocking."

"Messi's left and right feet are balanced, and his ball control is excellent. He is very fast and likes to connect all stages of the game through ball control. Therefore, he must be interrupted with fouls in time, and there is no need to worry about taking cards. The earlier the foul, the better."

"In fact, what is needed to defend Messi is more mentally prepared than physically. When fighting Messi, the first thing you need to do is to prepare mentally. Then there is a real sword and gun confrontation on the court. Remember, for this person, we should respect him instead of fearing him."

"The same reason is also adapted to defending Iniesta and defending Villa."

"Finally, I would like to emphasize that everyone should work together to limit the opponent's activity space in the game. Personal ability is indeed important, but more importantly, the whole team is united and acts like a whole.

Everyone listened seriously.

...

At this moment, in the northern locker room where Barcelona is located.

Guardiola is also making final tactical deployments.

"I hope you can fully utilize your offensive ability in this game."

"Without Clement, I predict that Fang Jue will put Milner in the midfield and partner with Barack. Although the Englishman is also fighting for active efforts, his midfield sweeping ability is not as good as Clement. We are fully capable of controlling and breaking through the midfield defense..."

At this moment, Biranova hurriedly pushed the door in.

"Pep."

"Wait, wait until I finish talking." Guardiola waved his hand.

"If Milner plays midfielder, then their left back will be Daniel Ross. This player is very capable of running and running actively, but he has insufficient experience, so we can use it..."

"Pep!" Biranova raised his voice.

"What's wrong?" Guardiola frowned.

"Pep, Aston Villa's starting lineup is out." Bilanova said anxiously.

"Oh, Fang Jue hesitated for so long, finally made a decision? Is it Milner or Stroman playing midfielder?" Guardiola said with a smile, "Or Sidwell?"

"None are." Biranova shook her head with a serious expression, "It's Clement!"

"Who are you talking about?" Guardiola was stunned for a moment and asked uncertainly.

Biranova didn't say anything and handed Guardiola the starting lineup of Aston Villa whom she just got.

Guardiola looked down and the lights projected down, and the bald head formed a subtle reflection, making it even brighter.

Guardiola saw Clement's name at the first time. His mind was a little confused. The most important thing was that he was in a bad mood and felt so uncomfortable.

This is not just because of his tactical arrangements, but the starting roster arrangements are arranged according to Clement's inability to play. It can be said that these have been affected - greatly disrupted his deployment.

More importantly, he felt fooled, and he had even imagined Fang Jue's smug look in his mind, as if saying: You have lost a game.
