Chapter 842 Shaqiri
On February 2, Manchester United played against Burnley at home.
Starting from this week, Manchester United has entered a high-frequency schedule of double matches a week, with the league, FA Cup and Champions League taking turns.
If Manchester United can break into the semi-finals of the Champions League, then they will get up to 5 rest opportunities for one game a week before May.
In the first half of the season, Manchester United performed well in the Champions League group stage and established their qualification early. Through a wave of 13 consecutive victories, they left Chelsea and Liverpool far away, but they did not leave their neighbors next door.
Burnley is a newly promoted team with limited strength. It is currently deep in the relegation zone, and it is not the kind of team that dares to fight tough battles and is willing to work hard. They chose to surrender early.
In the opening 20 minutes, Griezmann completed a pass and a shot, opened the scoring from a corner kick himself, and then set up Thomas Müller to score a goal.
At present, Griezmann has scored 19 goals in all competitions, including 14 goals in the league, ranking second in the scorer list after Aguero with 16 goals.
Although Thomas Muller scored slightly fewer goals than last season, with only 11 goals in all competitions, he also sent 9 assists, quasi-double 10 data.
The second child has been booked in advance by Bayern Munich, and Griezmann has become the coveted target of the major giants.
Able to break through from the side, retreat to get the ball, grab points in the penalty area, and the header is not weak. Although the speed is not very fast, but the combination of man and ball is very good, and he has a very stable scoring rate. Such an all-around player Who doesn't want a striker?
Not to mention Real Madrid and Barcelona, even the melons in Manchester City next door have called their names several times. For this reason, San Dezi decided to break the team's salary cap and sign a high-value contract with Griezmann. In order to avoid disputes, San Dezi notified in advance Sun Wu was hired, and a new contract was prepared for him.
Leading 2-0 in the first half, Pochettino replaced Erwa and Griezmann for a rest, and Shaqiri and Rashford came off the bench.
Sun Wu is not too cold about this. Although Rashford is fast, he is really not strong in dribbling breakthroughs. His most suitable position should be a center forward.
In the 65th minute, Shaqiri's long-range shot from the outside rebounded on the opponent's defender, and Lukaku grabbed the spot and made a supplementary shot to seal the victory.
The teammates ran over to celebrate, only Sun Wu frowned slightly, and Pochettino and Jesus on the sidelines also had the same expression.
Shaqiri's long-range shot is at the top of the arc outside the penalty area. In order to widen the passing angle, Sun Wu and Lingard moved to both sides just now. If Shaqiri's shot is blocked, Burnley can get the ball Right, it is possible to launch a wave of threatening counterattacks.
Sun Wu remained silent and continued to observe the Swiss Messi.
In the 72nd minute, Shaqiri took the ball from the right and suddenly started to throw off the Burnley defender. He entered the penalty area but was destroyed by another defender.
In the 78th minute, Shaqiri forcibly accelerated and wiped out the opponent's defender on the left, but then tried to smash the ball to get rid of the defending defender and failed, and the Burnley defender even found a chance to fight back.
In the 82nd minute, Pochettino replaced Lukaku with Januzaj, allowing Rashford to appear in the center position.
In the 88th minute, Januzaj played an exquisite cooperation with Sun Wu on the left side. The latter looked at Lingard who ran over to meet him, but abruptly picked the ball with his toes and sent a wonderful pass.
Januzaj received the ball on the left side of the penalty area, stopped and passed the Burnley defender, and then immediately sent the arc ball to the back point. Rashford easily pushed and broke the goal to make the score 4-0. .
After the game, Sun Wu was thinking, this is a better Januzaj than the original time and space, but Shaqiri is obviously not a perfect body.
……
Three hours after the game ended, Sun Wu lay lazily on the sofa in the office, listlessly looking at the opposite TV screen.
On the screen, Jingdong An, Harvey Alonso and Thiago are steadily controlling the rhythm of the game. Stoke City has nothing to do with them. The score in the upper left corner of the screen is 3-0.
"No, no, Shaqiri is very good, he just needs time to adapt to the tactical system."
"I admit he's good, but he's trying to dribble in the box... he's really not that smart."
"Look at Januzaj's assist, Shaqiri had at least three or four chances like that and they were wasted."
"Best, what do you think?" Jesus turned his head and said, "Don't look, do you still expect Mark to stop Guardiola?"
"Indeed, there is no hope at all. Manchester City's next opponent is Newcastle United, and Alan Pardew has no hope."
"Tsk tsk, a record-breaking 15 or even 16 consecutive victories, but 17 consecutive victories is probably enough, Klopp may be able to kill them!"
"Crack!" Sun Wu turned off the TV, "Anyway, we still lead by one point... By the way, what did you ask me just now?"
"Shaqiri." Jesús clicked on the pawn on the tactical board, "although there was an indirect assist, but... in 45 minutes, he did not pose any threat except for that long shot, and conceded the ball 6 times."
"He wants the ball." Sun Wu curled his lips. "His technical characteristics are indeed a bit like Messi, but the difference is that his style is rougher and not as refined as Messi."
"The most important thing is that Messi can get rid of consecutively, but Shaqiri can often only pass one opponent, and Messi will pass the ball at the right time after getting rid of, while Shaqiri often misses the best time to pass the ball."
"Position is also a problem. He can roam the front two wings, two ribs, and even appear in the penalty area, but he can't appear outside the big penalty area...at least when he gets the ball, it's like getting rid of the breakthrough problem. before being changed."
Sun Wu said endlessly: "Play a few more games, and he will correct many problems on his own, but there are a few points that need to be corrected on the training ground."
"One is the offensive speed. He will get rid of the defense as soon as he gets the ball, which will miss the opportunity to pass the ball and will also reduce the overall speed of the offense."
"The second is running. He likes to get the ball instead of running. This is an important reason why Heynckes doesn't like him."
"The third is counter-robbing. There is no successful counter-robbing within 45 minutes. This is absolutely not allowed."
Pochettino nodded repeatedly, and then said: "Then, Best, I will leave it to you... Don't refuse, I think this workload will not make you feel tired, let alone affect your mental state." .”
……
On the training ground on the second day, whistles sounded one after another during the match, and Sun Wu's loud voice sounded from time to time.
"Shaqiri... counterattack!"
"This is a foul. The purpose of counter-grabbing is not necessarily to steal the ball and attack, but also to buy time for teammates to return to their positions and reduce the pressure on the defense... You can force Coleman to the side and force him to pass back! "
"Shaqiri... You must not hesitate in the middle, either split the side or pass back. I have widened the angle of the pass...that is, Kante is not there!"
"Hey, doing anything is better than doing nothing!"
"Shaqiri...where are you running to?"
"Lukaku has pulled out on the left, you have to keep a distance from Griezmann, what are you doing on the right?
After a training session, Shaqiri was really eye-opening. Jesús, the guest referee, didn't care about him at all, but Sun Wu stared at him.
"The last one he stared at was Januzaj." Griezmann smiled and said to Shaqiri: "It's not bad now. In the previous one and a half seasons, he took care of everything..."
Shaqiri smacked his lips, feeling a little stressed.
"Hi." Sun Wu came over to greet him, and pointed to Thomas Muller who was not far away, "Believe me, the target is definitely not because you played for Bayern Munich."
Shaqiri shook his head with a smile. The name Best is taboo in Bayern Munich. It was the darkest period of Bayern after the 90s.
"You and Thomas have completely different styles, but they are equally outstanding." Sun Wu patted Shaqiri on the shoulder vigorously, "However, it takes time and training to turn potential into strength, understand?"
Shaqiri blinked, "Extra practice?"
Sun Wu smiled and nodded, the little guy is very good.
Griezmann rolled his eyes, Sun Wu is the team's favorite player for extra training, and he does extra training alone, but he likes to pull a group of people to do extra training...
