In the sound of the sky, Wenger always sat on the coach's bench at the Emirates Stadium.
The game has been played for nearly 70 minutes, and the score on the court is still zero to one!
In stoppage time near the end of the first half, Manchester United got a penalty kick. Van Persie, who returned to the Emirates Stadium for the first time after moving to Manchester United, made a calm take-off and made the first start for Manchester United in the full boos. Record.
Since then, the two teams never got a better chance to score, and the game has been deadlocked until now.
If you look at it purely from the scene, Arsenal undoubtedly have an advantage.
But the problem is that Manchester United played this game very pragmatically, mainly defensively, and it is not easy to give Arsenal a chance.
Seeing the game time passing by, Wenger felt a little impatient.
Of course, if compared with Ferguson, who rushed to the sidelines from time to time, screamed at the players and the referee, Wenger would appear too calm and calm.
"Boss, should we change people?"
Assistant coach Bald, who was sitting aside, approached and asked.
Since Les Pat's retirement, former Arsenal star Steve Bald has become Wenger's assistant coach.
But for him, Wenger was not as conceited as he did for Les Pat.
"What do you think?" Wenger glanced at him, then looked back at the court and asked instead.
As soon as Steve Bald heard it, he was immediately excited.
"Manchester United’s midfield has a lot of problems. The midfield combination of Carrick and Phil Jones has obvious problems, especially Phil Jones, who is very active and has a wide range of activities, but also often loses his position. The position of Manchester United's midfielder is often the dilemma of Carrick alone!"
"So, I think we should make use of it. I propose to replace Wilshere and let Cazorla, Rosicky and Ramsey enter Manchester United’s 30-meter area to increase the ball and pass in Manchester United’s dangerous area. Create more threats!"
Wenger turned his head and glanced at his assistant both unsatisfactorily and without expression.
This makes Steve Bald very depressed. What kind of situation is it?
Can you tell me, don’t look at me like that, okay?
But he knew in his heart that he could not become Wenger's confidant like Les Pat.
After all, he is just a nail placed next to Wenger by the team board!
From the day he entered Wenger's coaching staff, he was destined not to please the French professors.
Just ask, who would like a guy who stares at him all the time?
"Go, tell Chamberlain, Wilshere and Gervinho, ready to play anytime!"
Steve Bald was taken aback and changed three in one breath?
This risk is too big, right?
But he didn't dare to ask or say more, and immediately stood up and went to the bench.
No matter what he said at this time, it would only arouse Wenger's anger.
It’s not so easy to play Infernal Affairs!
Wenger glanced at Bald's back, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Although my assistant coach is a professional player, he can think about problems and look at things too easily.
As one of Arsenal's former defense five old men, Bald has a brilliant career.
But like all England players, his tactical skills are too rough.
Even now, he has transformed into a coach, but it still is!
This should be regarded as the biggest weakness and shortcoming of England and even the British coaches!
It's like Ferguson.
After so many years of coaching, the tactics have always been the same, but relying on rich experience, he is better at adapting to changes and more calm.
This is why Wenger refused to accept Bald's proposal.
Want to extend his last pass into Manchester United's 30-meter zone, Ferguson would not have thought, did not see?
I have been fighting Ferguson for so many years, and I know this too!
When you change, he changes immediately!
At that time, wouldn't the substitutions become useless?
Thinking of this, Wenger turned his head and glanced in front of the visiting team coach. Ferguson, who was chewing gum with a red face, didn't know why, Wenger suddenly wanted to laugh.
You old fellow, don't you want a glorious retirement ceremony?
Okay, although we at Arsenal can't add a block to you now, isn't there another Southampton behind you?
This time I must make you vomit blood!
It's best for you to taste it. At the last critical moment, you regretfully lost the championship trophy that you held in your hand and warmed up to see what it was like!
Thinking of this, Wenger's mental state became much more sober, and he got up from his seat.
Three minutes later, the players warmed up and came back, Wenger pulled to his side one by one, personally told them, and finally played.
Wilshere replaced Rosicky, who was physically weak, and Gervinho replaced German striker Bordowski.
As for Chamberlain, he replaced the frontcourt player Ramsey!
With this change of three places, Wenger rarely showed his courage to let go!
Ferguson stood on the sidelines and was a little surprised to see Arsenal change three people in a row.
"Why, when did Wenger be so courageous? He changed people like this?"
More importantly, these three people are all types with strong personal ability.
Needless to say, Wilshere, Wenger's most promising prince.
Both Chamberlain and Gervinho are players with a strong personal ability to handle the ball.
Once these three are on at the same time, Arsenal's frontcourt and personal breakthroughs are bound to be even more threatening!
The Scottish old man glanced at Wenger with a sneer, only to find that the Frenchman was also looking at him.
The two of them made eye contact, and they seemed to spark!
Niang Xipi's, this is to let go!
The small abacus is still pretty shrewd!
"The points gap between Arsenal and Chelsea is very small now. Chelsea won this round. Arsenal's pressure is naturally great. It is a matter of course to want to win." Mike Ferran laughed.
The Chelsea game was played the day before, and Arsenal must be under pressure now.
It seems that Southampton won yesterday and Manchester United is also very stressed today.
After listening to Ferguson, he sneered again, "How does he want to fight?"
Mike Phelan couldn't guess it either, but he asked, "Should we also follow suit?"
"Adjustment? Who to change?" Ferguson asked.
Mike Ferran turned his head, glanced at the bench, I wiped it, yeah, who should I change?
In this situation, it is definitely impossible to change the defensive player. If you can change the frontcourt, who can?
Anderson? Giggs? Cleverly? Hernandez? Or is it Shinji Kagawa?
It seems that whoever goes up there is not suitable!
"Go, tell Cleverly, go warm up and get ready to play!" Ferguson still made a decision.
Mike Ferran is also very curious. For Cleverly, he must strengthen the midfielder, but who will he replace?
The answer is, right back Raphael!
Ferguson switched Phil Jones to the right, Cleverly and Carrick formed a double midfielder.
However, Arsenal took advantage of the timing of Manchester United's substitution to launch a wave of rapid attacks.
Especially Arsenal’s entire midfielder, Gervinho, Cazorla, Chamberlain, Wilshere and others, are all players with strong personal ability, plus a very fast Wall in front. Kurt, thinking about it is a headache.
Once the ball reaches the 30-meter area of Manchester United, the ability of these guys to handle the ball is very frightening.
"Tell them to slow down, don't move so big, especially Phil Jones, don't foul easily!"
Ferguson was a little impatient on the sidelines.
Phil Jones is known as a parachutist. To say something nice is to have passion, to say something bad is to be reckless!
Wouldn't it be dangerous if Arsenal were given a set kick near the penalty area?
Not to mention, Ferguson's instructions were not delivered to the court. The referee Philip Dowd, who had given Arsenal a penalty before, blew the whistle. When Phil Jones was defensive, his actions were too big and the cards were too high.
Arsenal won a set kick from the left side of the penalty area!
I rub!
Ferguson was so angry that he vomited blood from the sidelines and kept calling the players to be careful.
Goalkeeper De Gea is also on the verge of an enemy, in that position, you can hit the goal directly!
Cazorla stood near the penalty spot, obviously he was the one who took the penalty.
High points such as Mertesacker and Koscielny have all come up, and Manchester United's big penalty area suddenly has a storm.
Everyone tensed their nerves and looked at the court.
Hearing a whistle from the referee, Cazorla quickly took a free kick, which was in the middle.
But Ferdinand got stuck in a very precise position, grabbed the first spot, and made a header clearance.
The ball went out of the penalty area, but it didn't go too far.
Walcott rushed out quickly, grabbed the ball before everyone else, took a look at the penalty area, made a curve kick, and slid the ball into the penalty area again.
I saw Mertesacker in the big penalty area seem to have a good heart, got stuck in the position ahead of time, relying on his tall and strong body, firmly suppressed Evans, greeted the ball, and slammed his head into the goal!
The ball rubbed Ferdinand's body, and there was a slight change when he flew towards the goal, but De Gea reacted quickly and blocked the ball with one hand, which can resolve a goal crisis.
But the ball did not fly too far and landed near the penalty spot.
The teenager Chamberlain, who had not appeared all the time, suddenly slammed up and faced the falling ball with a direct push.
The ball hit the goal guarded by De Gea in a straight straight line, one to one!
"!!!!!!"
The Gunners fans behind the stands at the Emirates Stadium all jumped up from their seats, shouting Chamberlain's name.
The sturdy Chamberlain grinned, grinned, and celebrated with his teammates excitedly.
Manchester United's goalkeeper De Gea kicked the ball towards the midfield with an angry kick, muttering something like a curse!
Ferguson was even more furious on the sidelines.
It's been more than seventy minutes, but the ball was evened by the board?
How to play such a game?
Looking at the frustration of the Manchester United players on the court, Ferguson is really a little bit more emotional but not enough!
Turning around again, glanced at the bench, really no one!
Hernández is a very efficient scorer, but in this case, he has gone up, who is going to win?
The coordination between Shinji Kagawa and his teammates is very problematic, and it is not appropriate to go up now.
Who else?
"Call Giggs and Hernandez to warm up right away, right away, fast!" Ferguson was a little impatient.
Damn, if at the last moment, it is equalized by Assen, then Manchester United's great situation is over!
Southampton won West Bromwich Albion in this round. If Manchester United ties Arsenal, that is to say, the points gap between the two teams will be shortened to three points!
With three remaining rounds in the league and Manchester United have to face Chelsea, the three-point lead is almost in jeopardy.
Because Benitez’s team is not easy to play at all, even at Old Trafford!
Thinking of this, Ferguson was also angry.
Really thought you would give it a go?
Manchester United has taken the lead all the way from the beginning of this season, ranking first in the Premier League standings.
It can be said that Manchester United has been at the top of the list for a season. If it is at the final critical moment before being counterattacked by Southampton to win the championship, then Manchester United's efforts for a season are in vain?
Where does this make Ferguson's old face go?
Even if you retire, you are not reconciled!
And if you stay for another year...
Ferguson really can't imagine it, because he has regretted it several times!
Therefore, this time, it is necessary to retreat and win the championship!
"I have never been the only one who reversed others to win the championship, and no one would want to reverse Laozi to win the championship!"
Ferguson couldn't help gritting his teeth when he thought of this.
"If you really want to do that, I will fight you!"
Two minutes later, Manchester United made a substitution adjustment.
Ferguson used Giggs to replace Nani, who had a sluggish performance in the game, and Hernandez, to replace Evans, who was underperforming.
As a result, Manchester United's tactics have changed.
Carrick retreated to the position of central defender, Giggs partnered with Cleverly in midfield, Rooney retreated, and Hernandez partnered with Van Persie as a striker.
Although it is a hasty change, in fact, Carrick has played central defender in the past. The effect is a bit similar to that of Bielsa who arranged Xavi Martinez to play central defender. Guardiola played Maschera. Nora's position is the same at center.
After all, it's all about strengthening the team's ability to hold and play the ball in the backcourt!
Wenger on the side was also a little surprised when he saw Manchester United's changes ~EbookFREE.me~.
"I rub, this old guy is crazy!"
Having said that, Wenger's expression looked a little excited.
As if he wished Ferguson went crazy!
"Oh, it's been a long time since I saw him so cruel. This is a bit Sir Ferguson's feeling!"
Wenger looked at Ferguson's snarling and roaring on the sidelines, hehehe smiled.
"But, unfortunately, Sir Ferguson, I must try my best to stop you!"
In Wenger's creed, he fought Ferguson all his life.
Now that Ferguson is going to retire, he must give a gift.
Is there a better farewell gift than letting Ferguson lose the league championship?
