"Bad bastard! This is a bunch of bastards! How can they play like this?"

"It's too much! These guys from Manchester City are simply shameless!"

"Foof, foul, or fucking foul! Do these damn guys really want any face?"

"They just want to win, and they don't think about face at all!"

"Everyone said that Manchester City's pass-and-control style is so beautiful, that's it? Haha! I think they are more utilitarian than anyone else!"

As soon as they returned to the home team's locker room, Manchester United players complained one by one. They had a direct competitive relationship with Manchester City. The two teams were in the same city and they were actually very familiar with each other's situation. But in today's first half, they were really depressed, and even made Manchester United players feel that the Manchester City they faced today was not the same as before!

Fouls are everywhere!

At the beginning of the game, both sides still restrained after taking a few yellow cards, but Manchester City players kept using small fouls to interrupt Manchester United's offensive rhythm in the subsequent games, forcing the "Red Devils" to slow down. In this way... how could it still pose too much threat?

Moreover, although the Manchester City players' minor fouls are not so hidden, even if they are seen by the referee, they will only call a foul and will not be released again.

In addition, when Manchester City was defending, they were guarding Yang Xiaozhuang on Manchester United, and even used three people to keep a guard against him. As a result, it was difficult for Manchester United's offensive to create a threat in the first half.

Of course, Manchester United players are also very depressed!

When Manchester United coaches such as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Rui Faria returned to the home team's locker room, they heard their players' complaints...

Rui Faria, the assistant coach, reminded Solskjaer at the first time: "Ole, the emotions of the players are affected by the opponent's tactics, so you have to pay attention."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer nodded slightly. He originally wanted to take this time to talk about tactical issues, but now it seems... he still has to stabilize the mood of the academy goal first.

"Young guys, we encountered tenacious resistance from our opponents in the first half!"

Well!

Strong...resist!?

Manchester United players all looked at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but they felt a little... speechless!

In the first half, Manchester City did not do anything other than fouls, fouls, and fouls?

That's it...you call this tenacious resistance!?

After hearing Solskjaer's words, Manchester United players were still a little dissatisfied.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer smiled: "Young guys, what do you think is the last method for a team to defend in football?"

Um!?

Manchester United players were stunned for a moment and immediately thought of... a foul!

Yes, if a team cannot defend against their opponents in the game, they can only use fouls to prevent their opponents from attacking. The tactical style of "Blue Moon" in the first half... is exactly that!

Solskjaer continued: "It seems you thought of it, yes, it's a foul! When a team cannot stop the opponent's attack through normal defense, that foul becomes the only way! And our opponents... Haha, that's what they did in the first half! I can even guarantee that they really want to use such means to curb the courage in the attack, and even to anger you, so as to achieve their goal of hindering our attack! Of course, we still have to admit that although the opponent's methods are dirty, the effect is indeed very obvious. The offense we launched in the first half was not strong enough and did not create a real threat to their goal. In the second half... do you still want this?"

"No!"

"No! Guys, we have to teach shameless Manchester City some lessons!"

"Fuck them! Let's fuck them to death in the second half!"

"Boss, tell me quickly, how should we kill them in the second half?"

Manchester United players began to stop complaining, and all looked at Solskjaer, and even Yang Xiaozhuang was no exception. When the team encountered difficulties in the game, if the players could not solve the problem themselves, the head coach would become everyone's only support.

Solskjaer laughed and was very confident: "Young men, our current offensive strength can force our opponents to stop us by fouls. What does this prove? This just proves that the opponent is almost unable to withstand our attack!"

Well... makes sense!

Manchester United players are all "veterans" who have experienced many battles. Before, they were just because Manchester City players kept fouling, which caused some fluctuations in their emotions. Now they were reminded by Solskjaer and they immediately discovered what was going on.

"In the second half, as long as we do it faster, we will definitely score goals and win! Of course, I am talking faster, not about the offensive rhythm of our forward advance, but about the rate of sending the last pass! Don't give your opponent a chance to foul you, then our opponent will not be able to stop you from sending a deadly pass! Anthony, Nigel, do you understand?"

Martial, Rayford nodded...

"clear!"

"clear!"

In the first half, when Manchester United launched an attack from the wing, Manchester City players defended as soon as possible. When they couldn't defend, they would foul them. No matter whether the foul was large or small, they would prevent them from sending a threatening pass to Yang Xiaozhuang who was at the forefront as soon as possible.

After talking about the two sides, Solskjaer looked at B Fee again, Adam Myers: "Bruno, Adam, when you two are organizing the offense to pass the ball to the wing in the second half, you should also pay more attention to the timing and route choices, and try to avoid Anthony and Nigel being fouled by the opponent. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understand!"

"Boss, don't worry, we know what to do."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer nodded with a smile. He was still very confident in his team's midfield and frontcourt. Now Manchester United's attack power is still the strongest in the entire European football world!

After talking about the offense, Solskjaer talked about defense again: "In the first half, our defense was very successful, and we didn't give the opponent a chance to counterattack! In the second half, we still have to beware of our opponent's counterattack at all times when defending. Haaland, Jesus and Rashford, their speed is very fast, and their tactics in this game will definitely be defensive counterattack. Once they get the opportunity to counterattack, we must be "fast" when defending! Quickly return to defense. If we can't stop them, then use fouls to stop the opponent's attack as soon as possible! In short, we must strangle their counterattack as soon as possible! No problem?"

"no problem!"

"Boss, don't worry!"

"clear!"

Manchester United's midfielders nodded one by one. Aliyu, Tuanzebe, Mansa, Joe Riley, and Wan Bisaka have played together for several years. They have a very high understanding of each other and have a strong sense of complementarity. Almost all of them have become instinct. Otherwise, Manchester City would not have even failed to fight back in the 45 minutes of the first half, and they did not get even one chance in the whole first half.

After saying this, Solskjaer smiled and raised his fist: "Young guys, come on! Manchester United will win!"

"It will win!"

"It will win!"
Chapter completed!
