LRAB Chapter 432
Chapter 432
September 22, early morning, Manchester City training base.
Su Fei, who was two days later than the promised return date, came to Stuart's office with a lot of bags, a little embarrassed.
"Boss! Don't you like tea?"
"This time I went to China, I brought you the best Chinese Tea! West Lake Longjing!"
"And this, the most distinctive chili sauce in China, Lao Gan Ma, and this, a golden pair, specially for brain tonic! And..."
Stuart smiled and looked at the various gift boxes on Su Fei's desk.
How could the old man not guess what Su Fei was thinking.
He waved his hand nonchalantly.
"You are very busy on and off the field now, and the team now has more people than before. You can relax yourself when you need to rest. We also won the League Cup a few days ago. I am very satisfied that you can come back before the sixth round of the league."
Su Fei left the office with a guilty conscience.
If it was really because of business activities that delayed the return date, it would be fine.
I was embarrassed to tell Stuart that it was actually because of a love affair, and my new girlfriend pestered me to stay in Beijing for two more days.
Anyway.
That's the situation.
After the kiss that night, Su Fei and Gao Yuanyuan started a low-key cross-border love affair in a daze.
But this matter probably won't be kept secret for long.
Because Gao Yuanyuan said that she would fly to England to watch her game and cheer for her in a while.
The media reporters with a keen sense of smell will definitely find clues at that time.
But it's a matter of time.
Let's talk about it later.
Since he returned to England, Su Fei temporarily put the love affair behind his mind and focused on the court.
And Gao Yuanyuan is also a career-oriented girl, and she didn't pester Su Fei with text messages and long-distance calls all day long.
The two agreed to meet at a fixed time every week to have an online video chat through the Internet to get to know each other better.
In this regard.
Su Fei silently concluded in his heart that love comes first and then love.
........................................................
On September 23, the sixth round of the Premier League arrived.
Manchester City visited Liverpool City to play against the "Toffees" Everton.
Last season, Everton's final Premier League ranking was 12th, which was neither high nor low, but compared with their fourth place in the 03-04 season, the decline seemed a bit big.
Their head coach is still the Englishman David Moyes with brown curly hair.
This summer, Everton made two important signings.
Signed former England international striker Andrew Johnson from Crystal Palace for 8.6 million pounds.
At the same time, Dutch central defender Kroedrup was introduced from Serie A Udinese for 7.5 million pounds.
Both transfers broke Everton's previous club record of 6 million pounds.
It is enough to see the prospects and expectations of Everton's top management for the new season.
New season!
Under the leadership of David Moyes, the tactical master and twice-time Premier League Head Coach of the Year, Everton, the "Toffee" team, showed an exceptionally strong momentum. In the opening match, they defeated newly promoted Watford 2:1, in the third round, they beat Tottenham 2:0, and in the fourth round, they beat Liverpool 3:0 in an incredible state!
............................................
At 5:30 in the evening, Everton's home stadium Goodison Park.
The special appearance ceremony that is loved by fans is in progress.
The lively and cute little girl holds a candy basket and distributes toffee to the audience.
In the ESPN live broadcast room, Wang Tao and Zhan Jun are introducing the starting lineups of both sides to the fans.
"I have introduced Manchester City, who are wearing pink retro jerseys!"
"The other side!"
"The home team, wearing blue, Everton!"
"Starting goalkeeper: the team's new main force, 1.91 meters tall, the former Red Devils substitute goalkeeper on loan from Manchester United, the American Howard!"
"Defenders: Left back, Portuguese international, one of Porto's main players in the 2003-04 Champions League, Nuno Valente!"
"Central defenders are Joseph Yabo and the team's new player Kroldrup!"
"Right back, Gary Neville's younger brother, former Manchester United youth team captain, David Beckham's Manchester United football school classmate, Phil Neville!"
"Midfielders: Mikel Arteta, Kevin Kilbane, Tim Carrard,Hill, Simon Davis!"
"Double striker: Andrew Johnson and James Vaughan, an 18-year-old player promoted from the youth team."
"Everton played in the traditional 442 formation!"
"David Moyes made drastic personnel adjustments to the team this season. Many players who were firmly in the starting lineup last season were put on the bench today."
"But such bold use of players is very effective."
"Successfully brought Everton a good start in the new season. The 3:0 home victory over Liverpool in the fourth round is the best proof!"
"Currently!"
"Manchester City and Everton both have 3 wins and 2 draws, without a single defeat. ”
-【Everton has the flavor of the 2003-04 season again this season, and the momentum is very strong.】
-【After all, it is the first club since the new century to shake the traditional top four position. David Moyes still has something.】
-【Remember last season, Everton was the first team to set up a turtle formation and adopt the tactic of encircling Su Fei, which made Manchester City score in the 70th minute.】
-【What was the final result?】
-【Hehe, in the end, Manchester City scored 3 goals in less than 20 minutes and won 3:0! But it’s hard to say today. Everton is really something this season. After all, even Liverpool was shut out and scored 3 goals】
... ...................................................
On the pitch, the referee looked at the watch, the game was about to start.
Stuart and David Moyes smiled at each other and said hello.
After the two turned their heads, they instantly put away their fake smiles.
For today's game.
Stuart was a little nervous, not only because of Everton's dark horse momentum at the start of this season.
There was another important reason.
That is, Manchester City will try a new tactic in today's game!
In terms of formation.
Manchester City is still 412 3.
However, in the team tactics before the game, Stewart solemnly announced that Su Fei's running back and forth in the middle will no longer be fixed!
Instead, Su Fei will be given a larger running range.
To sum it up in one sentence.
Manchester City will be free to run and return to defense on both ends of the offense and defense. He can go wherever he wants!
The establishment of this new tactic is not overnight.
It is a decision made by Stewart after studying the video of Su Fei's games since the World Cup.
Because Su Fei has the stamina to run forever, the ability to break through the sidelines, and the ability to organize and assist teammates.
Then the single Just put Su Fei in the middle area as the team's end point and support transfer point.
How do you see it?
Why does it feel like a waste of Su Fei's all-round talent?
Simply.
Be bold and reduce all restrictions on Su Fei.
Let Su Fei try with his offensive running awareness and all-round passing and shooting ability.
And Everton is a strong Premier League team.
It is the best experiment imagined by Stewart, the "free man"!
