Chapter 393 The second half is here!
When he returned to the visiting team's locker room, Yaldim was in a good mood, and even a smile appeared on his face...
"Young guys, everyone performed well in the first half!"
good?
We are behind!
Chelsea stars looked a little strange when they looked at Yardeim... Is this young head coach having a problem with his head?
Yardim laughed and said, "Do you think I'm talking slander? Or do you think there's something wrong with my head? No, no, what I'm saying is true!"
Chelsea players were puzzled, and Jaldim had already given his reason: "This is Old Trafford Stadium. We were only one goal behind in the first half, and after conceding the ball, we have adapted to Manchester United's rhythm and did not give them a chance to expand the score! Isn't this performance good?"
Well!
After hearing Yaldim's words, Chelsea's players felt...it seemed to make some sense!
Yaldim laughed and said, "Young guys, have you figured it out? Haha...and don't forget, we are only one goal behind. Now we can withstand Manchester United's attack. If we can score one goal in the second half, then we will be able to win and retreat in this game? We have finished the first half. Do you still think Manchester United's attack is unstoppable? I think... it's actually that way! Think about it, in addition to that unexpected goal, did Manchester United play a threatening attack in the first half?"
Chelsea players didn't say anything, but they quickly showed a sudden expression. Although Manchester United took the initiative in the game in the forty-five minutes of the first half, they really failed to make any threatening attacks in the game.
That goal... can be said to be a mistake by Chelsea himself and gave it to Manchester United!
In addition, although Manchester United's offensive pace is fast and they have gained some opportunities again and again, in fact, they have indeed failed to make high-quality attacks and failed to truly threaten Chelsea's goal!
Speaking of which, Yaldim's tactical arrangement is really in place. Without the ball rights, Chelsea's entire team retreats to compress space. Once the defense is successful, the ball will be transported to the frontcourt for passing and control. Even if it cannot tear open Manchester United's defense line, the pass and control can slow down the pace of the game and consume more time, allowing Chelsea's defensive players to have a chance to breathe. When Manchester United attacks again, Chelsea's defensive intensity and quality have become very high again.
The balance between offense and defense... is the secret that the "Blue Army" can withstand Manchester United's offense in the first half!
"Boys, in the second half... do you have the confidence to score a goal? Let's at least leave Old Trafford with a draw! Do you have the confidence?"
After hearing this, Chelsea’s stars were all energetic...
"have!"
"Boss, if you have any instructions, just say it!"
"Boss, how should we play in the second half? Just tell me!"
"Boss, have you discovered any loopholes in Manchester United?"
"Yes! Boss, do Manchester United have any defensive flaws?"
Yaldim nodded with a smile: "Young guys, through observations in the first half, I really discovered some problems with Manchester United's defense."
Um!?
Hearing this, Chelsea’s stars were all excited and focused on Yaldim. They have lost to Manchester United in the past two years. They don’t want to win this game today, even if they just leave with a draw, this is a great improvement for the "Blue Army".
“Continuity!”
Yaldim always kept a smile on his face and looked very confident: "Young men, in the first half, I noticed a flaw in Manchester United's defense, which is that they lack continuity when defending. If we can strengthen our protection and connections to each other during the attack, and make our offense more coherent, then there will be problems with Manchester United's defense!"
Defensive…continuity?
After hearing Jaldim's words, Lukaku, Fabregas, Leon Bailey, and Luke Shaw, who played the left winger in this game, all showed thoughtful expressions.
Today's game was a bit uncomfortable for Luke Shaw. Although he received attention after he arrived at the "Blue Army", he even played as a left back now, but a left winger who could perform his aggressiveness more. But the problem is... When he came to Old Trafford Stadium today, Manchester United fans ignored him at all, and no one even called out a "traitor"!
This...this is a complete ignorance!
For Luke Shaw, being ignored is simply more painful than being invincible, which shows that Manchester United fans have no place in their hearts!
Since head coach Yaldim has decided to counterattack in the second half, then... I must play my role!
Fabregas suddenly spoke at this time: "Guys, I also paid attention to Manchester United's defense in the first half. Their defense thickness in the middle is obviously insufficient. They rely on Mansa, Tuanzebe and Aliyu to be responsible for the defense in the middle. B Fee in the midfield and Mark Touminai were not involved in the defense today. I think if we do more from the middle, we can definitely create more threats for them. Luke, Leon, you two can move closer to the middle in the second half."
Luke Shaw and Leon Bailey nodded together. During the training and warm-up matches before the season, Fabregas, a midfield commander who was born in Barcelona but became famous at Arsenal. Later, he returned to Barcelona and returned to the "Blue Army" of the Premier League. His skills, awareness and experience really made them feel inferior.
The head coach Jaldium didn't interrupt, just looked at Fabregas with a smile and expressed his opinion. Finally, he nodded with a smile: "Young men, Francisco is right. Manchester United's defensive power in the middle is a bit weak, which determines that they can defend once, twice, or at most three times! As long as we can pass through their three defenses during the offense, we can score goals! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Okay! Very good! It depends on yours in the second half! Everyone rest and get ready to play!"
Jaldiim clapped his hands and encouraged the Chelsea players. The Chelsea coaches all nodded secretly. This young and capable young coach of the Portuguese are not yet considered the world's top coach and have not yet formed his team. So these coaches at Chelsea are also coaches from Conte's coaching period before. Except for two or three Conte's confidants who went to Real Madrid with him, the others remained in the "Blue Army".
