Chapter 234 The First Group!
After Manchester United led three goals, Solskjaer saw that the time was almost over, so he started to make substitutions. He replaced Yang Xiaozhuang like before. Now he is Manchester United's finish line protection target. If something unexpected happens, the team's tactics will be affected.
In the subsequent games, Manchester United played a little relaxed. Not only did they fail to score another goal, but they were scored by Watford, who played at home. The final score was frozen at 1:3, and the home team saved some face.
At the press conference after the game, Turkish coach Trim accepted the failure calmly against reporters: "We have played our strength in the game, but our opponents are stronger and much stronger than us, especially Manchester United's attack line. The speed is really too fast. We can't keep up with this pace. It is reasonable to concede three goals. I believe that any team will be in a defensive manner when facing an opponent like Manchester United. We can only concede three goals, which is enough to prove that my players have tried their best."
When it was Solskjaer's turn to speak, "Babyface" always kept a confident smile and said something very humble and low-key: "We encountered a lot of trouble in today's game. Watford's defense is very strict. If we weren't in better shape, the outcome of this game would be unpredictable."
Nonsense!
After hearing Solskjaer's words, the reporters felt that the Norwegian in front of him was very fucked. Manchester United won in this game without any danger. You were even talking about the train and said that it was very difficult for you to win?
Is this...want to hide Manchester United's true strength?
But is this really useful?
Yes, at the beginning of the season, everyone felt that Manchester United sold the three main players Lukaku, Pogba and Matic this season, which caused the overall strength to decline a lot. But at the beginning of the new season, Manchester United's performance was really eye-catching, and they won all the games!
Even though the game between the Community Shield and Manchester City second team was quite difficult, and in the end it was just a small win, but after that, Chelsea won three goals. Then there were three consecutive Premier League rounds. Not to mention the three consecutive wins, they scored 14 goals and conceded only 1 goal. Such Manchester United... can you still pretend to be low-key?
Do you really think you can still hide it?
Are you funny?
This is how Chicken Xinneng is. I always feel that I am smart and can use a little trick to make everyone's eyes confuse everyone. Why can't I be open and open?
From this point of view...well, Solskjaer is really not as direct as Mourinho!
Manchester United returned to Manchester for a day off and took a break, and the third round of the Premier League matches ended one after another. Manchester United, which won three consecutive victories, was naturally ranked first in the standings with the advantage of goal difference, but another team that won three consecutive victories was a bit surprising... Everton!
However, the three consecutive wins of the Toffees are a bit lacking in value. The opponents they met in the first three rounds of the Premier League were Bournemouth, Huddersfield and Middlesbrough. In terms of strength... Everton is still stronger than his opponents, so it is normal to win.
From the perspective of overall strength, Everton does not have the ability to bring impact to the Premier League Championship Group, so... no matter how good Everton performs, it doesn't matter.
On the contrary, the team ranked third and fourth will really make Manchester United feel threatened!
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City were the fourth. Both teams both won 2 wins and 1 draw after three rounds of the Premier League.
With their strong strength, Guardiola's team still played in a very stable state. Although they changed to the pass control tactic, there were some problems with the defense of "Blue Moon". They conceded one goal in every game in three rounds, but they still won two games.
The situation in Tottenham Hotspur...is a bit special!
In three games, "Bai Baihe" actually scored 13 goals, but 7 of these 13 goals came from Harry Kane. The English captain scored a goal in the first round to help Tottenham draw Brighton away. In the next two rounds, they scored consecutive hat tricks, helping the team defeat a strong opponent like Liverpool and also helping the team defeat Aston Villa with a score of 7:0.
In the Premier League scorer list, Harry Kane quickly rose to second place, just one goal less than Yang Xiaozhuang, who ranks first!
The entire English football world is cheering for Harry Kane's form. In fact, Kane performed very well last season. He scored 28 goals in 34 league games for Tottenham and 6 assists, which is equivalent to creating a goal in every game.
But Harry Kane has shown a strong desire to score goals at the beginning of the new season, and his overall performance has also improved significantly compared to last season. Since Harry Kane can help "Bai Baihe" win the third or second place in the Premier League in the past three seasons, can this season... the English captain who performed better than before help Tottenham Hotspur win the Premier League championship?
Can't say it's right!
No one can tell this correctly!
During the summer transfer, Pochettino made the team spend a lot of money, which is also the common wish of stars such as Harry Kane, Erikson, and Ali. They are indeed full of love for the team, but... As professional players, you cannot just use feelings to generate electricity. The championship honor is still very attractive to professional players in their twenties.
So this summer, the stingy chairman Levi also took out some money to strengthen the team's strength, and Pochettino did not waste this opportunity and bought a few people in the transfer market...
Barcelona Digne, Ajax de Ligt, Riverbed Lucas Prato, Eindhoven Hendrix, Locomotive Maghes.
These players are not very famous, but they are all powerful players or young players with great potential. Pochettino's transfer operation still makes Tottenham Hotspur's management very satisfied. Even if the team cannot win the championship in the end, this wave of operations can be regarded as an investment in the transfer, and there will definitely be returns in the future.
As for which step Tottenham Hotspur will eventually take under the leadership of Harry Kane, no one can say it correctly. Anyway, the English captain this season is really very powerful!
Unlike Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur relies on a certain player to promote the team, Manchester City is actually relying on the overall strength to push forward. If it comes to stability and durability, the "Blue Moon" this season should be able to gain the upper hand.
But behind these three teams, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Leicester, who also has 6 points, are ranked fifth to eighth in the standings.
