"Red Devils" Manchester United and "Blue Army" Chelsea, as the six traditional giants in the Premier League, are in the reconstruction period this season and do not have the strength to compete for the championship, but the past grievances between the League and the Champions League still make the two teams meet each other as enemies. Moreover, in the first round of the new season, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer coached Manchester United, using Chelsea's best way to defend and counterattack at home, and beat an opponent 4-0, which made Lan on the verge of death in the offseason.
However, since then, the performance of both sides has been completely opposite. Although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United has maintained an excellent performance in the strong dialogue this season and once became a veritable giant killer, the Red Devils' ranking in the standings has been hovering in the middle because of their lack of skills in facing the weak teams, and Lampard led young Chelsea to blow up a youth storm in the Premier League, keeping the top four in the standings, and the two sides fought again. Lampard's Chelsea has never been favored.
However, this game is also a must for Manchester United. The team has paid a lot of money for two consecutive transfer windows, but the overall performance of the Red Devils this season is not satisfactory. Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also fell into the crisis of class ending. Whether Solskjaer can secure a Champions League qualification this season is the key to his position. In particular, Tottenham Hotspur rebounded obviously after Mourinho coached, which made the competition for Champions League qualification more intense this season.
Especially, after the Blue Moon Corps, a premier league giant, was banned from participating in European competitions by UEFA for two seasons, it means that the top five teams in the Premier League (except Manchester City) can qualify for the Champions League this season, which is an opportunity and a huge challenge for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. If he lost in World War IV, another reason is that his opponent is too strong. If the fifth game fails, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will have a high probability of being dismissed from class, so Manchester United is also doomed to win this game!
After Lampard became Chelsea manager, he successfully transformed the team's midfield and further inspired Kantor's offensive ability. Nozzini's ability to deliver the ball and kovacic's ability to push the ball make Chelsea's midfield creative. In this season's Premier League, Chelsea passed the threat ball 365,438+09 times, second only to Manchester City, which has a luxurious midfield, with 387 times.
But the strength of a team's offensive ability depends not only on the ability to create opportunities, but also on the ability to seize opportunities, which is also one of Chelsea's biggest weaknesses. Chelsea, which ranked second in the number of threatening balls, also ranked second in the number of shots with 424 feet, far higher than Liverpool with 406 feet and leicester city with 360 feet. However, in terms of the total number of goals scored by the team, Chelsea scored only 43 goals, far less than Liverpool's 65 goals and leicester city's.
In desperation, Lampard chose to let the faster striker Bashuayi become the arrow figure of Chelsea in this red-blue battle, hoping to tear open Manchester United's defense line with his speed advantage. However, Ba Shuai Yi's overall performance this season is not good enough. He only scored 1 in 14 league games for the Blues, and knowing that Manchester United will definitely adopt the same intensive defensive strategy as when the two sides first met, Lampard chose to believe.
In this game, Bashuayi, who started the game, was completely lost in Manchester United's intensive defense, wasting the threat attack created by the team many times. He was finally replaced by Lampard in the 68th minute. After the game, he only scored 5.4 points, the lowest among Chelsea's starters! Bashuayi, who came off the bench, scored a header shortly after Jill appeared. Although he was first sentenced to offside, it was one of the few threatening sports attacks. Facts have proved that the role of big center Jill is far better than that of speed striker Ba Shuai Yi!
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer officially became Manchester United coach this season. He didn't bring the promised attacking football back to Old Trafford, nor did he let the fans see the effect of heavy signings. But he can win many times in the strong dialogue, which shows that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer still has a certain level of coaching. At least in this game against Chelsea, Suo Shuai has an overwhelming advantage.
Solskjaer boldly changed his formation in this game in response to Chelsea's oppressive style of play. Instead of playing against Wolves, he adopted a more conservative 3-4- 1-2, and formed a three-guard system with faster Bailly, Maguire and Luke Shaw. Moreover, defensively, Wanbisaka and Williams are in midfield.
And obviously suppressed Luxor's desire for assists in the game, and did not give Chelsea behind Luxor a chance to fight back. Bailly's return to the starting line-up in this game is another big reason why Manchester United can get it. His explosive power and speed advantage make it difficult for Chelsea's midfield to form a threatening attack on the offensive end. In this game, Lampard sent a fast break Bashua, which was exactly what Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wanted. In the face of steady and steady Maguire, the speed did not drop.
Although in this game, Chelsea's possession rate reached 6 1. 1%, it also occupied an absolute advantage in the number of shots. In the whole game, 17 scored far more goals than Manchester United's 9 goals, but in the face of Suoshuai's three-center defense system, Chelsea only scored 1 in the whole game. On the other hand, while Manchester United is firmly defending, the team is also fighting back. Williams and Wanpika can insert quickly, posing a threat to Chelsea wingers. Mashal's first goal for the team was assisted by winger Wanpika. It can be said that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's three-centre-back system is the key for Manchester United to beat Chelsea away from home!
Manchester United, the winner of this game, beat Chelsea away from Stamford Bridge for the first time in nearly eight seasons, and it is also the first time since 1988 that it has completed the double play against the Blues in the league! Although there is a lot of controversy in this game, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still slightly better only from the situation of arranging troops! Although Chelsea lost the "Red-Blue War" again, it still ranks fourth in the standings with the advantage of 1 point. After winning, Manchester United also saw the opportunity to compete for the Champions League qualification. This season's Premier League Champions League qualifiers also entered the white-hot stage ahead of schedule!
