Swansea's coach Gary Monk is also a young coach, and he is only 35 years old now. He also became the head coach of Swansea in the middle of last season, but it was more than two months earlier than Ye Su.

At the beginning of February, the Swansea Club dismissed the team's meritorious coach, the former Juventus, Barcelona and Real Madrid star, the Danish Michel Laudrup, and the team captain Gary Monk served as the interim coach until Now.

Among the 20 teams in the entire Premier League, Ye Su and Gary Monk are the two youngest head coaches, and they are also the top two in the head coach dismissal odds table issued by "Sky Sports".

Therefore, this game is also considered a contest between the two young coaches, and it is also a key battle to keep their jobs.

Laudrup's Swansea played very beautiful football and was once considered one of the representatives of the Premier League's technical flow. After Gary Monk accepted Swansea, he did not completely abandon everything that Laudrup had done at the beginning, but inherited and carried forward it, and added some traditional English football concepts.

This Swansea team is still very strong and full of resilience. After Gary Monk accepted, the team once drew with Arsenal in the away game. Facing Mourinho's Chelsea, they only lost one goal in the away game. :3, so, even though they were reversed by Manchester United with two goals in a row, the morale of the team was not hit hard, but they continued to wrestle with Manchester United.

………………

When the time came to 70 minutes, Ye Su chose to make a substitution in consideration of going to Cyprus to play the Europa League play-offs in the middle of the week. Fellaini replaced Kanter in a row, and Nani replaced Bruno Fernandez.

In this game, the two teenagers consumed a lot of energy. Bruno Fernandez was running relentlessly in the frontcourt attack, while Kante was sweeping back and forth in the midfield. Ye Su decided to let them go off the court to rest first.

But Ye Su quickly regretted his two substitutions, because the team lost the ball shortly after their debut. And the two can be said to be the culprit for Manchester United losing the ball.

In the 71st minute of the game, Swansea got an offensive opportunity. Nani chose to foul in midfield and prevented the opponent's attack.

After Nani fouled, he backed away, completely ignoring the opponent's situation. Swansea striker Boni quickly sent a free kick to instigate a fast break. Routledge received a far-end cross pass from Montello on the right side of the penalty area. He lost his center of gravity and knocked the ball into the middle. Having not yet entered the state, he completely lost his position in this defense. Sigurdson scored with his left foot at the front of the penalty area in the middle, and Swansea team equalized the score 2:2.

Witnessing the conceded goal, Ye Su, who had just hugged Kanter and Bruno Fernandez on the sidelines to encourage them and hadn't returned to the coach's bench, looked very ugly.

These two guys are really slapping the face. I just replaced them, and the two of them jointly directed a goal for Manchester United!

Old Trafford also fell into silence at this moment, and the fans were a little confused.

The team was still in an advantage on the field just now, pressing against Swansea to attack, why did they concede the ball in a blink of an eye?

The Manchester United players were also very depressed. They played very hard throughout the game, but the team conceded a goal out of nowhere and fell behind, and then everyone wasted their efforts. Finally, captain Wayne Rooney scored two goals in a row. Evened the score, but lost a goal inexplicably in a blink of an eye, and the score was evened by the opponent again on the court.

………………

After the game re-kick-off, under Ye Su's signal, Manchester United continued to attack Swansea. However, because Swansea retreated across the board, and the players' physical fitness entered a bottleneck period after playing more than 70 minutes of high-intensity games, the team's offensive effect was not good.

After 80 minutes of the game, seeing the team's lack of offensive skills and difficulty in attacking Swansea's iron barrel formation,

Ye Su had no choice but to play the last card in his hand, replacing Mata with De Bruyne.

Ye Su's substitution was actually a gamble.

Mata's current physical condition is very poor, so his performance on the court is also very poor. And he is the engine of the team's offense. His performance directly determines the quality of Manchester United's offense, which leads to Manchester United's lack of strength in offense.

But De Bruyne has just joined the team for only three days, and the tacit understanding with the team has not yet been reached.

However, the cards in Ye Su's current hand are not much for strengthening the team's offense. In the end, he can only choose to believe in De Bruyne's talent and ability, hoping that he can help the team surpass the score again.

When De Bruyne was about to play, Ye Su told him on the sidelines. It is not to guide him how to play after playing, but to ask him to release his offensive ability after playing, and not to think too much about defense.

For Ye Su, he only needs 3 points in this game, and there is not much difference between scoring 1 point and losing the game.

………………

After De Bruyne came on the field, he quickly took over the command of the team. Under his offensive scheduling, Manchester United completely turned the game into a half-time offensive and defensive drill.

Under such circumstances, Ye Su made another change to the team's formation. He asked the players to tell Fellaini to go directly to the center forward and take advantage of his tall and strong body.

Compared with the Swansea defense line, which is generally in the early 1.80 meters, the 1.94 meter Fellaini can be said to stand out from the crowd, and the advantage is too obvious.

With Fellaini's absolute high point, coupled with the three super big men Smalling, Maguire and Van Dijk who took turns entering the penalty area, there are at least two players in Swansea's penalty area almost at any time. lighthouse.

At this time, Rooney chose to retreat to the midfield, cooperate with De Bruyne and Phil Jones, and control the ball. Vardy, on the other hand, was cruising in the penalty area, seeing every stitch and disrupting Swansea's defense.

And Ashley Young and Nani are constantly breaking through on the two sides, and then send the ball into the penalty area.

The game at this moment really doesn't seem to have any technical and tactical level. But under this almost chaotic tactics, Manchester United used their absolute height advantage to suppress Swansea, making them tired of defense and completely unable to counterattack.

It's like a city, no matter how strong it is, it can't stand the impact of the siege ram's aim at the goal. Although Swansea paid the price of 3 yellow cards in a row, they still failed to defend.

In the 87th minute of the game, the walls of Swansea came down.

………………

De Bruyne cooperated with Ashley Young on the left. Professor Young pretended to make a bottom pass, but after attracting two Swansea defenders, he suddenly passed the ball in an inverted triangle to Deb who came over to respond. Launey.

Facing the swooping Swansea defenders, Ding Ding kicked the ball without hesitation.

This is a 45-degree cross, and the target is Fellaini who points behind.

Swansea's defenders held on to Fellaini, pushing him close to the bottom line of the back post.

Despite this, the Swansea players could not make up for the full 10cm height disadvantage. Fellaini barely took off and forcibly snatched the ball over the head of Swansea's Welsh central defender Ashley Williams. The ball flies back to the goal.

Among the chaotic crowd, Vardy's eyes were quick and his feet were quick. He took the first kick and smashed the ball ferried by Fellaini into the Swansea goal.

After completing the goal, Vardy was so excited that he didn't know what to do. He just instinctively ran to the back of the goal. He saw the Manchester United fans in that place shouting frantically, so he ran over.

Behind him, many Manchester United players, including Rooney, ran over, and then threw Vardy, who was still happy and a little dazed, beside the goal, celebrating wildly.

………………

Ye Su on the sidelines was also very happy. On the one hand, because his tactics worked, the team took the lead again, and on the other hand, it was because of Vardy's goal.

Faced with the worldwide problem of the Iron Barrel, even Barcelona at its peak would be scratching its head, let alone Manchester United, which is now in the rebuilding period.

In fact, Ye Su had already prepared to end the match with a draw, or even a loss.

During this period of time, Manchester United's offense was very crazy, but also very dangerous. Once Swansea hits a counterattack, Manchester United, whose defense all overwhelms the midfielder, is very likely to be scored by Swansea.

His bet is that Swansea's defense can't hold on first.

Now he won the bet, Manchester United KO'd Swansea with a bewildered and unreasonable style of play, with a posture of punching the old master to death.

In this attack, De Bruyne, Fellaini and Vardy all played an important role.

If you want to talk about merit and deeds, De Bruyne's precise pass is 30% of the credit, Fellaini's header ferry under the strong interference of the opponent's defensive player should account for 40% of the credit, and the remaining 30% The credit must be credited to Vardy who scored the goal. If it weren't for his ghostly running position and extremely fast reaction speed, this goal would not be there.

In the former Leicester City, what Vardy left to the world is his world-leading forward single-handed ability, amazing speed and explosive power, high-speed dynamic ball control skills, good at anti-offside forward running, and can play in the frontcourt. Challenge the opponent's entire defense line by himself, his single-handed shooting skills are amazing, and he never lacks unconventional shooting skills.

In addition to directly scoring goals, his breakthroughs can often create penalty kicks. From this point of view, his offensive characteristics are very close to Irving at his peak.

In addition to his scoring ability, Vardy also has extremely high tactical value. Vardy's active forward press is a sharp weapon to create opportunities for the team to counterattack on the spot in the frontcourt and increase the chance of a second attack. Vardy has a very strong ability to scrimmage the ball without a master. Once the counter grab is successful, Vardy still has a good ability to protect the ball and distribute the ball. The threat of this kind of counterattack on the spot is self-evident. In the case of the second attack, it can prolong the time for suppressing the opponent's formation and save the strength of the team's frontcourt players to repeatedly press again. At the same time, Vardy is the first shield to delay the opponent's smooth ball in the first place and prevent the opponent's quick and fatal counter-pass.

Apart from these, Ye Su was more concerned about his ghostly movement. The goal he just scored showed his characteristics to the fullest.

He scored a goal in the first official game representing Manchester United. Vardy let more than 73,000 Manchester United fans on the scene, and even the whole world remember him as a nobody!
