Chapter 881 Manchester United and Mourinho

The Inter fans were eager to repeat the first round result, or even better.

However, Southampton did not repeatedly step into a river in the remaining time.

They still controlled the situation on the field and did not give Inter Milan many opportunities, and Dericht's marking of Icardi also made it almost impossible for the Argentine to find any good opportunities.

The rest of the time just passed by like a minute and a second.

The last-minute counterattack that Inter Milan fans were looking forward to, there was none.

They finished the rest of the time almost without any struggle. When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Southampton defeated Inter Milan [-]-[-] at home. With [-] points in five rounds, Obtained the right to qualify for this group in advance!

Although Real Madrid also defeated Eindhoven, and the points reached [-] points, Southampton may not have won the first place in the group in advance, but Southampton fans have no objection to this, after all, even if Southampton won the first place in the group , will definitely be drawn to a strong team.

Everyone is used to it and knows that this is the basic operation of UEFA.

Anyway, if the group qualify, then there is no problem.

In fact, Ji Ya also sees it this way. As long as the group qualify, then the task in the Champions League in the first half of the season will be completed, and the next step is to train young players...

The main players continue to run in important games.

Young players will have fewer opportunities, so even in such a game, Southampton will send young players to fight against Real Madrid in the last round.

Anyway, as long as they don't lose two goals in the away game, Southampton can also win the first place in the group after defeating Real Madrid [-]-[-] in the first round.

In fact, it doesn't matter even if the group is second, anyway, they will meet a strong team.

Next is three consecutive league games, and then the sixth round of the Champions League. Next, Southampton will have to participate in the Club World Cup. The No.17 and No.18 league rounds will be postponed until Supplementary games will be played in the second half of the season.

Of course, the Southampton players are used to this rhythm.

In these three league games, Southampton will play against Manchester United first, and then against Tottenham. Only the No. 16 round will be easier, against Cardiff City.

In the case of two rounds of invincibility in the league, the pressure is indeed a bit high when encountering these three opponents.

Manchester United has slowly improved recently, and Tottenham have won consecutively. Under such circumstances, what kind of answer sheet Southampton can deliver is indeed interesting.

Manchester United now has 21 points, Southampton has 23 points, it seems that they are the right opponents...

But looking at one of them ranked sixth and the other ranked eighth, one has to sigh, both sides are really in the same boat...

For Mourinho, his current pressure is indeed quite high. The management has begun to find a successor for him. Although he has won a few games recently, it is obvious that the locker room has It started to get messy, Mourinho started to catch the ghost, but he didn't catch it...

Everyone knows that Mu three years, catch the ghost, this can only indicate one thing, that is Mourinho will dismiss get out of class.

"Damn, if we win against Manchester United this time and Mourinho dismisses get out of class, the media will say that I kicked out a famous head coach." Ji Ya said in the locker room.

The players all laughed, but at this time, everyone is not interested in playing this joke. After all, under pressure, Southampton's current performance is not very good.

"We still have to keep calm and calm during the game, understand? Manchester United's midfield can also create a lot of pressure, so we have to entangle with them more in the game, keep our attention, and entangle with them to the end. This kind of game It will bring a lot of pressure, and it is also the driving force for us to move forward," Kiya said in the locker room.

The players nodded one after another. The game against Manchester United really deserves them to get used to it.

"Manchester United is actually very strong as a whole. Unfortunately, their players do not fully meet Mourinho's requirements, and he is not lucky enough to create a top-level defense that he needs most." After the players walked out After the locker room, Kiya said something to Benelli.

"Yeah, their frontcourt is already good enough, even the backline... It can't be said that there are no outstanding defenders, even if they don't play well, and they don't form a whole." Benelli sighed.

Ji Ya nodded. This can be said to be the root cause of Mourinho's failure at Manchester United. His previous success was that he was always able to form a strong defense line. Maybe he is not well-known, but it is very practical. From Porto to Chelsea , to Inter Milan and Real Madrid, this has not changed at all.

But in Manchester United, there is no such defender.

"It must have been hard to support." When Ji Ya shook hands with Mourinho, he asked with concern.

If it were someone else, Mourinho might be touched, but he knows that Ji Ya's words are just to stimulate himself, so that he can direct any mistakes in this game...

"Nothing, we are now on the right track." Mourinho immediately denied it.

"That's good. I thought you'd be dismissed after this competition... If this continues, I'll become a public enemy of the industry." Ji Ya breathed a sigh of relief.

Mourinho is speechless-do you think you are not a public enemy of the industry?If you are so eager to win the championship, everyone will be hostile to you.

However, for this game, Mourinho still has a little confidence. He can see that Southampton is also in a period of pain. Their midfield is trying to achieve perfection, but it is still a little bit short. Under such circumstances, There is always something to take advantage of.

Manchester United's problem lies in the defense, which is not a defect that can be made up by time, so their performance has been up and down this season, including the best last season, and they will always lose the chain unconsciously.

And Southampton's problem can be solved slowly over time - even Ji Ya took the initiative to let the problem be exposed first, and then solve it by himself.

Thinking of this, Mourinho sighed, if he had the same power as him...

But soon Mourinho shook his head. He knew his weakness. In terms of tactical arrangement and on-the-spot command, he was undoubtedly top-notch. He has a smart transfer team, then his results will be much better, if not...

It's like what Manchester United's management is now.

His failure at Manchester United was nothing more than the shortcomings of Manchester United's management, which just magnified his shortcomings.
