Chapter 550: An old man is reminiscing about his youth
Sanchez was a little scared. He had several passing opportunities, but he didn't pass the ball, which obviously made Wenger very angry.
However, Sanchez didn't think he did anything wrong. He still thought that if he had passed Ashley Young, the offensive effect would be better.
It wasn't that his choice was wrong, but he still needed to work hard. Pushing open that door, there was the golden road.
Yes, he was just afraid of being scolded, not that he thought he was wrong.
These are two different things.
However, Sanchez, who has played for Arsenal for almost four years, also knows that their coach, who has always been gentle and elegant, actually has a very hot temper. He just tries to control his temper and try not to get angry.
"When you come on the court, play on the left." Mourinho instructed.
However, Mahrez also has many opportunities to play. After all, Manchester United has been fighting on multiple fronts since the beginning of the season, and the substitute rotation players, including him, have all got a lot of opportunities to play.
"I always feel that the kid won't be so obedient." Pat Rice said, pointing to his head, "I've seen through it a long time ago, that kid is just stubborn."
But once the old man is irritated, it is also very terrifying, compared to another legendary old coach in the Premier League, Ferguson, it is definitely worse.
And letting the evil beggar play in the left midfield is to suppress Manchester United's offensive on the right.
In the first half of this game, Rashford's Manchester United's left side was relatively quiet, while Mbappe's right side was very active.
Before he finished speaking, the evil beggar and Bellerin sitting on both sides of him immediately stood up.
With a "click", the bottle accurately fell on the forehead of Aubameyang, who was watching the excitement.
Mahrez nodded fiercely, he couldn't wait to play the game.
"I feel uncomfortable in my stomach, I just went to the toilet." Sanchez said without waiting for others to ask.
Although Mourinho has an overwhelming advantage in the record of playing against Wenger, and he once jokingly called Wenger a "failure expert", Mourinho also knows that this old French man is not an easy guy to deal with.
"Hey--" Meiyangyang was about to speak, but when she saw Wenger's glaring eyes, she immediately became timid, lowered her eyebrows and pretended that nothing had happened.
Seeing Sanchez laughing, Wenger was so angry that he picked up a bottle with half a bottle of water and threw it at him.
He put his hands on his hips and gasped.
In the middle, Bruno received the ball, but he didn't let the ball stay under his feet and directly passed it to the left.
Even Mourinho didn't expect that his adjustment would be effective immediately.
Sanchez stared at Ashley Young, and he still wanted to force Ashley Young. But Ashley Young once, he was not clear in his heart and felt uncomfortable.
"Hey, Mesut, what's the situation..." Sanchez winked at the evil beggar and asked in a low voice.
Of course, spirit is only one aspect, and reversal also requires reasonable tactical play.
Wenger didn't say anything, and the old man held a bottle of mineral water with the cap unscrewed in his hand.
Wenger told them that if they could score a goal before the second half was halfway through, the victory would belong to us.
At this time, the second half of the game had already started for more than ten minutes, and Arsenal had launched a fierce attack on Manchester United's goal from the beginning of the game.
Well, that's what they did.
The evil beggars and others who were watching the show on the side immediately came up, and several people helped the old man find a seat to sit down. Several people also secretly winked, meaning that it was good, the rain was over and the sky was clear.
Mourinho stood up and went to the sidelines, with his hands in his trouser pockets, staring at the field.
"When Marcus becomes active on the right, Arsenal's defense line will inevitably tilt to this side, and then, on the left, your chance is here!"
Just five minutes later, Manchester United launched an offensive on the right.
On the other side, Mourinho saw all this. He snorted. Wenger was still in the mood to argue with his assistant after falling behind 0:2 at halftime?
The activeness of the evil beggar put a lot of pressure on Manchester United's right defense, and Mbappe's assists were obviously reduced.
After all, he was old, and Wenger was exhausted from the chase, and of course he might be angry.
The football drew an arc and flew to the front of the goal. Arsenal goalkeeper Ospina attacked in front of the goal. His intention was to intercept the ball directly from the air. But after the attack, Ospina found that his judgment was wrong. The arc of the ball passed by Mahrez was a little floating, and the football just passed between Ospina's hands.
After Mahrez came on as a substitute and conveyed Mourinho's tactical instructions to the players on the field, Rashford on Manchester United's right soon became active, which also forced the evil beggar to participate in the defense, and Arsenal's left-wing offensive was suppressed.
After attracting Arsenal's defensive force to lean to this side, he suddenly transferred the ball diagonally.
Mourinho sent Mahrez on.
Of course, Wenger scolded Sanchez severely at the halftime break.
Wenger raised the bottle and wanted to pour the water directly on Sanchez's forehead, hoping to calm Sanchez's feverish brain. Sanchez subconsciously dodged and his raised arm just hit the bottle. The bottle mouth tilted, and although Sanchez's face was splashed with water, more of it was poured on Wenger's shoes.
Ospina turned his head in horror and saw a player in a red jersey rushing up at the back post.
Wenger glared at the boys and had to hurry up to explain the tactics for the second half of the game.
Sanchez thought to himself: Oh, no, it’s still here!
Sanchez raised his head and forced a smile, "Boss, are you...looking for me?"
"Tell Marcus to step up the attack on the right."
Mahrez launched an attack from the left wing. He brought the ball close to the baseline and made a cross.
"Same as you?" Wenger asked.
Sanchez deliberately walked very slowly. He wandered slowly in the corridor, hoping that he would go back a little later and Wenger had forgotten about it, or that Wenger had already scolded other people, such as the evil beggar or the Aubameyang was severely criticized and his anger subsided?
………………
Sanchez hurriedly ran over and consoled him: "Boss, don't be angry. Be careful of anger damaging your health."
Seeing the shiny black leather shoes being soaked by water, Sanchez couldn't help laughing.
………………
Before the start of the second half, Wenger made a substitution.
Wenger was so angry that he threw the water bottle away.
Then he became alert.
"Cancelo!"
Moreover, Sanchez believes that as long as he passes Ashley Young, then cuts into the penalty area and completes the goal, the old man will not hit him, but will only praise him.
Needless to say, Bruno's position as the attacking midfielder is unassailable; on the two wings, the two super talents Rashford and Mbappe also overwhelmed him, firmly occupying the main position.
"Pay more attention to moving the ball laterally." Mourinho drew a cross on the tactical board.
Sanchez ducked away and laughed.
"Football!" shouted commentator Lineker.
Replaced with Welbeck, because Wenger knew very well that this old Manchester United player was hungry for the game, especially when the opponent was Manchester United.
………………
At this time, an unexpected situation occurred. Mbappe felt discomfort in his ankle during a defense and had to leave the field.
Mahrez is a versatile frontcourt player who can play both left and right, as well as as an attacking midfielder. But today Mourinho arranged for Mahrez to play on the left, and Rashford, who was left-footed, moved to the right.
Then, Sanchez pretended not to see Wenger's gaze, walked to the bench and sat down.
Now, Mahrez will have to fight for the starting spot.
………………
Wenger became even more angry. He hit twice more, but Sanchez dodged it with his dexterous passing skills.
When he joined Manchester United last summer, Mahrez came for the main position. However, after joining the team, he found himself facing a difficult situation.
Old Manchester United player Welbeck replaced Chambers, and Arsenal changed to 433. Bad Beggar, Xhaka and Ramsey formed a three-man midfield, with Bad Beggar appearing on the left, and Welbeck, Aubameyang and Sanchez partnered up front.
………………
After all this fuss, there is not much time left.
Looking at Sanchez's serious expression on the sidelines, Wenger smiled happily. He said to Pat Rice: "These boys must be beaten and scolded before they obey."
Then, with his head lowered, Sanchez saw a pair of polished black leather shoes. The shoes stopped in front of him, with the toes facing him.
After waiting for about two minutes, guessing that the time was almost up, Sanchez opened the door and went in.
And Sanchez knew that what he did today definitely pissed off Wenger.
Wenger slapped Sanchez on the head and snorted.
Rashford is very fast. He first forced past the bad beggar, and then continued to rush along the wing.
I'll hit you, hide you, scold you, but you can't just cover your ears and not listen.
"Still haven't escaped." He lamented mentally.
The first thing he needs to do is to encourage mentally. It is difficult for a team that has lost its fighting spirit and has no hope for the result to win a reversal.
Sanchez jumped away and hid in a crowded place. Then the bottle not only hit him, but also hit the beggar and Koscielny.
Wenger stared at Sanchez. The two were very close, almost nose to nose.
………………
Seeing the two men disappearing from different directions and the locker room falling silent, Sanchez immediately knew he was in trouble.
If someone else had said this, the effect would have been very average, and no one would really believe it. But when Wenger said this, at least most Arsenal players believed it because he had the confidence and qualifications to say this. talk.
However, as a professional player, especially a player who believes that his ability is no weaker than Rashford and Mbappe, Mahrez has always wanted to seize the main position.
Today, Manchester United's right back, Cancelo, rushed to the back point, and he made a diving leap!
"GOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLL!!! Cancelo! Cancelo!! Cancelo!!!"
"Manchester United leads Arsenal 3:0!!!"
