Chapter 256 The benefits of youth training as the main focus!

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is quite optimistic about the current group of Manchester United's youth training players. He even thinks that these guys should be no worse than the 1992 Golden Generation back then. This is also the conclusion he reached after communicating with Gary Neville and Bart.

Not to mention anything else, just Chinese Yang, Rashford, Aliyu, Tuanzebe, Mark Tominai, Andreas Pereira are already enough to be in the 1992 class, not to mention Joe Riley, Tyrell Warren, and Mansa have great potential, that is, goalkeeper Joel Pereira and forward Hames Wilson are a little bit different.

If these kids can really grow up, there will be no problem in supporting Manchester United. Unfortunately, Lingard couldn't stand Mourinho's neglect before and transferred to the market first. Otherwise, the combat effectiveness of youth training players in Manchester United will be stronger now.

When the players from both sides of the game walked into Old Trafford Stadium, the commentator was already nagging: "Today our opponent is Porto. I believe everyone still remembers that we met this team after entering the Champions League quarterfinals last season. Although we eventually became the winners, we also saw the strength of this team through two games. The difference between us and them... is probably just two goals."

"But we can't be careless in this game today, because there are too many youth training players in our lineup today. Now, except for De Gea, B Fee and Maguire, everyone is from our Manchester United youth training players. These young people have unlimited futures and they also have amazing potential, but how much strength they can play in the game depends on how they perform on the spot."

Manchester United supporters don’t care about that many. The commentators are still worried about the team’s combat effectiveness, but they are already happy to see so many of their children appear in the lineup. There are more than a dozen teams in the Manchester United youth training camp. Previously, there were only four or five people in the first team from Manchester United youth training, and not all of them were played. But now... the team’s lineup has almost been occupied by youth training players.

Speaking of which, the "Red Devils Elderly Club" did a good thing this time. They forced the Manchester United management to the palace, which now seems to have played a big role. Otherwise, almost half of the players in the Manchester United first-team were from Manchester United's youth training.

Speaking of which, even if Manchester United loses in the game now, it is because their children are not strong enough. There is no need to worry about the players not doing their best. This is the benefit of using a large number of youth training players... Trust!

Fans believe that the players will not slacke in the field, and believe that the team will do their best to win, which is just one of the benefits!

And there is... tacit understanding!

Just 9 minutes into the game, Mark Tominai made a key pass and sent the ball into the penalty area on the right side of Porto. Rashford rushed forward and volleyed!

Bang!

Rashford's shooting percentage was still a bit low. His kick was too straight. The ball was blocked by Porto's Argentine goalkeeper Sousa and flew out.

But this ball... did not fly far, but flew into the small penalty area on the left!

Yang Xiaozhuang, who had been ambushing near the free throw point, was ready to make a shot at any time, rushed up immediately, pushed the arch of his left foot and the ball flew into the empty goal more than one meter away... 1:0!

"Replenishment shot! This is the replenishment shot of Chinese Yang. Now we are leading 1:0!"

"Tsk tsk! Marcus's shot... Haha, this technique is still a bit too rough! Fortunately, Yang should know Marcus's shooting skills very well and was ready to shoot early, otherwise we would really miss this chance to enter."

"Tiger understanding! The young people on the field now know each other very well, so when they fight side by side, they will naturally provide guarantees for their teammates and help them make up for the mistakes they made."

Fix the leak!?

While watching the game off the court, Solskjaer applauded Yang Xiaozhuang's goal, this word suddenly appeared in his head. In just a moment, he suddenly seemed to understand why after more youth training players were on the court, the team's combat effectiveness seemed to have suddenly increased to a very high level.

It is because these young players are so familiar with each other that they are even very clear about the advantages and shortcomings of their teammates, and can make more accurate judgments based on the situation during the game. When it comes to the game... this effect will come out.

Just like just now, Mark Tominayi's pass was very sudden, but Rashford suddenly stepped forward into the penalty area on the right, and the ball flew over. Although his volley failed to score, he indirectly created the goal.

However, can this familiarity between each other be compared with the tacit understanding that has been played with famous stars for many years?

Or...Let's take a look again!

The game started over and a group of young men from Manchester United took the initiative directly on the court. They kept protecting each other and cooperating with each other. No matter what their teammates were doing, they would naturally react accordingly, so that even if their teammates made mistakes, they would make up for the loopholes as soon as possible.

In this way, the players on the field in Porto are complaining. They even feel that when they are fighting against Manchester United players, they are like they are trapped in a quagmire. It does not mean that Manchester United's defense is so tight. The main reason is that even if the opponent makes a mistake, someone else will come up and fail to get the loophole, and you break through one... the next one will appear in front of you immediately!

This...is this considered chain defense?

Of course... not!

Because even when attacking, once the person who dribbles the ball is intercepted, the opponent's broken ball is often grabbed by Manchester United immediately, and then immediately throws it into the offense again.

Just like Mark Tominayi, he is obviously not very outstanding in all aspects, and his interception ability is not very strong, but his air interception ability is strong enough, and there is also a Aliyu who has good interception ability behind him. This makes Mark Tominayi often pass by his opponent, and Aliyu behind him will snatch the ball and stuff it back, allowing him to play his advantage as soon as possible and send a key pass forward.

Now, Solskjaer really saw a lot of different things, turned his head and suddenly asked Rui Faria: "Ruy, when we played against Brighton before, how many shots did the opponent complete when the Hamburg team?"
Chapter completed!
