Chelsea coach Conte is absolutely world-class, so after he went to the scene to watch the Community Shield Cup between Manchester United and Manchester City, he already knew exactly what the situation is like for Manchester United today.

At least judging from the Community Shield Cup game, Manchester United this season... is no longer considered the "Red Devils"!

At the beginning of last season, Mourinho did not bring Manchester United to the invincible aura. They gradually evolved into the "Red Devils" throughout the season, but this season, Manchester United looked like a set of loose sand under the leadership of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and both offense and defense seemed a little confused. In other words, the midfield was relatively stable, and... Manchester United's defensive counterattack was really powerful!

The attack line composed of Yang Xiaozhuang, Rashford and Martial is born with an absolute advantage in speed than the attack line of other teams. Once you get the opportunity to counterattack during the game, no one else needs to participate, and even these three people don’t need to devote all of them to the counterattack, and the opponent will be unable to bear it.

However... Chelsea's defense is different from other teams!

Not only because Conte brought Italian chain defense, but they also had one more defense than other teams. After Conte coached Chelsea, he always played a 5-2-3 formation, and he could also change to 5-4-1 in the game, but the five defenders... will never change.

Three central defenders with clear division of labor, plus two full-backs with strong defensive awareness but certain assist capabilities, can support midfielder. This tactical style is always the tactical basis for Conte to coach any team.

Whether in Barrie, Atlanta, Siena, Juventus, and even the Italian national team, Conte has this kind of steady style when coaching. Through tactical changes in the game, his team can also achieve the purpose of controlling the rhythm and organizing offense.

As for the positional attack power shown by Manchester United, Conte feels that even if his team closes their eyes, they can block them outside the penalty area. In this game... As long as his team insists on playing defensive counterattacks, at least they will not lose in this game.

Before the game started, Solskjaer also gave face-to-face advice with Yang Xiaozhuang in the locker room: "Yang, Chelsea's team is a representative of intensive defense. Their defensive formation is very strict. During today's game, you will definitely be closely guarded, so you must observe the positions of your teammates today, and once your teammates have the chance, pass the ball over."

Yang Xiaozhuang nodded with a smile: "Boss, I know. I will try my best to attract their defense attention, and I will also pay attention to the position of my teammates."

Through this period of time, Yang Xiaozhuang also knows what kind of person the head coach Solskjaer is. His personality is really not as strong as Mourinho, of course... his level is not that high!

It can be seen from the training days that Solskjaer realized that the team lacked more means in positional battles after the Community Shield. If Mourinho coached, I am afraid that he had planned all of this before moving Yang Xiaozhuang from the wing to the middle, and then it will be implemented.

Tender!

Still tender!

This is what Manchester United players think of Solskjaer now!

However, Solskjaer's weakness does not affect Manchester United's players' liking him. One reason is that he has played for Manchester United for many years when playing football, and the other hand, his attitude when talking to the players is easy to make people feel good, just like friends are communicating, yes, he is obviously the team's head coach, and it is natural to arrange tasks for players, but "baby face" is always the kind of attitude that is both qualitative and magnificent.

In order for Solskjaer to carry out his work better, the "Red Devils Elderly Club" has even held another small meeting under the leadership of the captain Herrera, requiring everyone in the team to cooperate with the tactics arranged by the head coach. Whoever takes the blame... bears the consequences.

In this way, let alone the nine reserve players who were just promoted by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the players who were originally in the first team have become honest. The "Red Devils Elderly Club" is really powerful now. Not to mention Manchester United players, some things even the head coach has to discuss with the "Red Devils Elderly Club". Even the Manchester United management attaches great importance to their opinions.

There was news that the reason why Solskjaer became Manchester United's head coach was Ferguson's personal choice, believing that he was better at cultivating young players, and the "Red Devils Elderly Club" also chose Solskjaer.

Otherwise, with the previous concept of "a monk from afar, he can recite scriptures" by Manchester United's management, he would never find a "newcomer rookie" to take over his "four crown" team after Mourinho left.

When both sides entered the stadium, the stands were filled with Manchester United and Chelsea fans, but...

Damn it!?

Manchester United and Chelsea stars all remembered the scene when they played youth teams when they were young. After becoming professional players, they have never played games on such a small stadium!

When they met again in a foreign country, the two teams were still very kind to each other. Lukaku, Phil Jones and the people from Manchester United also shook hands and hugged each other. These "old" teammates... they are all good brothers!

Without the help of brothers such as Chinese Yang, Rashford, and Martial last season, how could Lukaku score 52 goals and 20 assists in his career?

After the game started, the friendly atmosphere gradually disappeared as the game progressed. Both sides began to enter the game state. After testing each other for a while, they began to fight...

In 5 minutes and 45 seconds, B Fei's pass made Yang Xiaozhuang run half a circle along the arc, and successfully stopped the ball with his chest and entered the Chelsea penalty area...

But Chelsea's defense against Yang Xiaozhuang was really strict. Even Yang Xiaozhuang's movements were already very fast. Just as he stopped the ball in his chest, three Chelsea players wrapped up. Ludinger and Christensen attacked left and right, Kanter followed Yang Xiaozhuang, right in front... Courtois had already rushed out of the small penalty area!

There was no way, Yang Xiaozhuang didn't even have time to exert force during the running, so he picked the ball out with one kick, and finally the ball flew into Courtois's hand.

Although this attack failed, Yang Xiaozhuang was able to complete the shot under multiple opponents' double-teams. Manchester United's morale and fighting spirit suddenly increased!

In the 10th minute, De Gea kicked the ball to B Fei in the middle circle. After the Portuguese midfielder stopped the ball, he passed it again without even looking at it. The ball flew directly from the middle circle to the front court on the right side of the middle.
Chapter completed!
