Chapter 295 The man who fights against the "Western Super League" alone

Mendes knows very well that Ronaldo will not win the Ballon d'Or this year. It is estimated that by this time, the stubborn Ronaldo himself will understand.

If he could win the La Liga championship and the Champions League last year, no matter how many goals Messi scored, the Ballon d'Or would be his.

But he only had one league championship last year. With Messi's 91 goals in the year, such results were not enough to support his overtake.

In other words, there is only one Cristiano Ronaldo who can stir up public opinion and win a certain amount of votes even when Messi scores 91 goals in the year.

If you substitute other players, you won't even be able to get close to Messi.

Messi was so strong in 2012, so strong that it was completely unreasonable.

So many people now don't understand why Ronaldo still maintains such blind confidence in himself when the situation is over, and even Mendes is still spending money to help him build momentum.

The cost spent is destined to be unrecoverable.

Mendes also complained a little about this when talking to Li Mo.

According to his original intention, during the two weeks when La Liga was suspended due to the Christmas holiday, it was enough for Ronaldo to go out to play, relax, and stay with his family to calm down. There was no need to compete with Messi.

This year's Golden Globe Awards.

After all, the officials have made it clear several times that you failed to live up to expectations last season and missed a penalty kick. If you don't win the Champions League, you have to compete with a guy who scored 91 goals in a year.

But not Cristiano Ronaldo. No matter how many doubts, ridicules and even curses there are from the outside world, Cristiano Ronaldo is still the same as before, stubbornly believing in himself.

After Li Mo listened to Mendes' complaints, he did not think Ronaldo was too arrogant like others.

"This is normal, he is Cristiano Ronaldo."

He knows only too well how, 13 years after his previous life, Cristiano Ronaldo managed to achieve success despite being over 30 years old.

Mendes couldn't open his eyes. When Messi was about to win his fourth Ballon d'Or this year, Mendes had actually lost confidence in the competition between Ronaldo and Messi. He didn't expect that Li Mo would still

I'm quite optimistic about Ronaldo.

"Forget it, let's not talk about him for now. The custom-made suit will arrive in Sheffield in two days. Remember to try to see if it fits. If it doesn't, tell me. Let's change it in advance. There is still time. There are still some

I will ask Charlie to tell you in detail about the things to note about the interview. It may be a bit boring at the award ceremony, but you must pay attention to your image and be patient."

After Mendes explained everything in detail, Li Mo finally understood that attending FIFA's year-end awards ceremony was not just about getting awards and points of pork, but participating in such a ceremony itself was an honor for the players.

After all, if you didn't achieve something good last year, or if you were not a former football superstar or a current football legend, you simply wouldn't be able to participate in this kind of ceremony.

"Anyway, I will talk less and listen more when the time comes. I will just sit there and watch the people on the stage perform. When it is my turn, I will go up and shake hands to get the trophy, and then stand and take photos with the others."

Li Mo summed it up, Mendes was stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the same.

The ones who attracted the most attention that night were definitely the top three in the Golden Ball, namely Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta. Li Mo just wanted to win the honor of the best eleven of the year, as long as he didn't talk nonsense.

"You are right, but there are still some things you need to pay attention to. I will ask Charlie's team to give you a brief training when the time comes."

Mendes smiled and patted Li Mo on the shoulder. He was about to chat with Li Mo for a while, but after looking at the time, he had to say goodbye to Li Mo and leave.

He actually came to Manchester today to discuss some player transfers in the winter window.

Of course, it's not Manchester United, but Manchester City, a well-known enemy in football today.

Master Bei is not very satisfied with the Manchester City team's waist. After taking office, he has been thinking about changing to a stronger waist so that he can better arrange his troops.

Now let alone Mendes, all the agents in Europe who have good midfielders are running to Manchester one after another.

The tycoon of Manchester City is very happy to spend money, and if you increase the price, he will not pay it back. The commission and commission obtained from making a big deal are much higher than running five or six ordinary transfers.

So now Mendes just takes the time to make an appointment with Li Mo to meet in Manchester, and then he will go to fight with several other economic giants.

Li Mo, after digesting the conversation with Mendes, asked Charlie to drive him back to Sheffield.

In the afternoon, he will go to the home court with his teammates who have the day off to cheer for the team.

The Premier League has entered its twentieth round, and all teams have now met Sheffield United. It can be said that all teams have an in-depth understanding of Sheffield United.

If you want to compete for the title, you will inevitably be targeted by tactics from many teams along the way.

Before the start of this round of games, West Ham United head coach Allardyce stated at a press conference that he was confident of taking points away from Bramall Lane Stadium.

Such remarks attracted the attention of many reporters. Sheffield United fans did not take Allardyce seriously, thinking that he was just a clown who lost to Sheffield United in the first half.

However, Li Mo felt that with all their main players taking a break today and the opponent seemed to be well prepared, the Sheffield United players who started the game might face considerable difficulties if they did not cheer up.

However, Li Mo was only slightly worried. After all, with Speed ​​sitting on the sidelines, anyone who dared to despise his opponent would definitely be scolded.

Besides, the rotating Sheffield United lineup is much stronger than the newly promoted West Ham United. Even if Allardyce needs to be reorganized, the worst possible outcome will be a draw.

As long as they don't lose at home, the result is not bad. A draw with Sheffield United is no big deal now, as there is enough room for error.

The relaxed mood finally overcame the slight anxiety. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Mo and Bell sat in the private room arranged by the club on time and watched the Sheffield United players on the field take the lead in kicking off and launching an attack on West Ham United.

Today Speed ​​arranged a 433 offensive-oriented formation.

He still wants to score as early as possible in the first half, preferably with a lead of more than two goals, so that in the second half he can make targeted tactical adjustments based on Allardyce's so-called "backhand".

The situation at the beginning of the game did develop as Speed ​​and the Sheffield United players expected.

Brother Xiaosha took the lead today. Even though he has not had this level of tactical weight for some time, he still stood up very promptly when the team needed it.

Pull wide, retreat to play the ball, and grab a shot in the penalty area.

Forty-five minutes into the first half, Berbatov used his comprehensiveness to help Sheffield United quickly open up the offensive end.

Using him as an arrow, Kuyt moved to disrupt the situation, Dembélé intervened in the attack, and De Bruyne, who could send threatening through balls from the wing at any time, was beaten by Sheffield United for almost the entire half.

Conducted offensive and defensive drills.

Of course, West Ham United was the defensive side, and they were really embarrassed.

However, the fans were enjoying themselves, but Speed ​​and the main Sheffield United players in the private room were looking very uncomfortable.

"You can't score when you have the upper hand. Does Allardyce's so-called confidence in scoring points just rely on stacking up people to defend?"

Li Mo felt something was wrong. Although Sheffield United had not scored a goal in the first half after playing for more than 30 minutes, there were several times when Sheffield United's two forwards almost succeeded in grabbing points in the West Ham United penalty area.

If the current offensive continues, it will be a matter of time before West Ham United concede a goal.

Is Allardyce just talking?

Li Mo couldn't understand what the fat coach on the sidelines of West Ham United was planning.

But just when he thought the first half would end with Sheffield United scoring, something suddenly changed on the field!

Dembele's late pass seemed to be too weak and was intercepted by West Ham United's full-back.

Next, almost all the West Ham United players, except for the two central defenders and the goalkeeper, pressed forward and launched a gambling-style counterattack!

This scene is still fresh in the memory of Speed ​​and Sheffield United players, and even many Sheffield United fans!

In the focus battle with Manchester United not long ago, Ferguson used this trick at that time, and almost broke down the defensive system that Sheffield United was proud of. If Sommer hadn't played against the odds at that time, what would have happened later in that battle

The trend is hard to say.

Speed ​​really didn't expect that West Ham United, which had been idle for more than 30 minutes in the first half, would dare to play this trick!

In other words, Allardyce dared to imitate Ferguson's trick.

This is actually a gambling-style counterattack with far lower returns than risks. Once intercepted during the counterattack, the open space in West Ham United's backcourt will become their talisman!

However, in Allardyce's view, the risk is high, but this tactic has been proven by Ferguson. If used at the right time, with a little luck, it is possible to break Sheffield United's defensive golden statue.

magic weapon.

And now is the most suitable time!

"Noble distributes the ball! Nolan pulls wide and Carlton raises his hand for the ball in front of Sheffield United's penalty area! West Ham United almost have as many as seven people crossing the midfield line! God, they want to repeat it

Manchester United's forward counterattack made Speed ​​a little unable to sit still!"

In the commentator's exclamations, West Ham United's counterattack army completely stunned Medel, who was lagging behind.

Damn it, there are seven people coming to counterattack, and Sheffield United's defense is only three people plus two full-backs who are desperately chasing back. Which side is he going to defend?

There are people everywhere! No matter how much he can run, he can't outrun the opponent's pass.

After a moment of hesitation, Medel decided to defend with Stones and the others to the edge of the penalty area first.

It was this decision that allowed West Ham United's advancement speed to be almost unimpeded. When Matthew Taylor on the right finally knocked the ball across to the top of the Sheffield United penalty area, Medel went to fight for the ball.

Ball center Carlton Cole.

But Carlton Cole knocked the ball to his side with his heel, completely avoiding Medel's interception. He scored eight league goals with Wolves last season and only transferred to Wolves this season.

West Ham United winger Jarvis took a shot directly from the penalty area line!

Given's line of sight was partially blocked by Chris Morgan, so when the ball flew to the goal, he was too late to save it!

"Jarvis shot directly!!! Given! Given didn't react! Given was interfered by his teammates! Sheffield United fell behind! Sheffield United fell behind! West Ham United took the lead at Sheffield United's home court!

"

Jarvis, who scored this goal, was so excited that he ran directly from the field to the sidelines and hugged the excited Allardyce to celebrate. At this time, the words 0-1 on the scoreboard indicated that the home team was behind.

It looks very dazzling.

No one expected such a result. Sheffield United fans did not expect it, other spectators watching the game did not expect it, and even Speed ​​did not expect it.
