Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 370 Vardy's Red Bull 7, Manchester United needs to keep a steady mindset at the end of the season

Manchester United legend Ferdinand: The Premier League schedule has interfered with both Manchester United and Manchester City, and the time of the Manchester derby should be postponed.

"You shouldn't have a Manchester derby before the quarter-finals because the players can't recover quickly from a high-intensity game," Ferdinand expressed his views on Manchester United's elimination from the Champions League when facing Sky Sports reporters.

Ferdinand gave a player's perspective on both Manchester United and Manchester City's failures in the Champions League.

Five days is enough time for professional players to adjust their physical condition to the peak, but the fact is that the consumption of brain energy by high-level football matches is extremely exaggerated.

Facing two strong opponents within five days, by the time of the second game, Manchester United players were unable to make correct judgments.

What Ferdinand said made some sense, but it was quickly judged by fans from other leagues as "excuses for the weak."

The Premier League teams were wiped out in the quarter-finals, that's a fact.

……

After returning home after dinner, Tang Ye lay in a chair and took a quick look at the team's upcoming schedule.

Being eliminated from the Champions League does not mean that Manchester United players can reduce their work intensity. Manchester United still has a total of four games to complete in April, including three Premier League games and an FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham.

Tang Ye was thinking, if only time could fast forward to 30 days later, he would know how many championships he could win in the end.

2 or 1, or none at all?
But from another perspective, this hasn’t happened yet, and it feels pretty good to have the future in our own hands.

Ding Dong!

The cell phone rang, and it was Vanderjah who contacted Tang Ye.

The Manchester United assistant coach said he could help Tang Ye make an appointment with a psychologist so that the latter could quickly adjust from the loss of the game.

Tang Ye rejected Vandergaard's kindness and said that he could adjust his mentality by himself.

This sentence seems to have a bit of pretentiousness.

However, adjusting one's mindset is something Tang Ye is indeed very good at!
After finishing the communication with Vandergaard, Tang Ye turned his attention to his own system.

[Phase 6 Mission Progress: Assists (6/)]

Status: Completed

In the second leg, Tang Ye got 1 assist, which also means that he completed his Champions League mission.

However, because losing the game was so sad, Tang Ye has not dealt with his task reward.

See what you can get!
[Complete the third stage of the serial task]

[You get counterattack points*6500]

6500 counterattack points!
Tang Ye knew that it was most likely a reward for counterattack points, but this amount was beyond his expectations.

6500 counterattack points!
He can use this huge sum of money to upgrade his props!
[You have obtained the serial task stage 4]

[Mission objective: Create 40 attacking opportunities in the Champions League]

[Current progress: 0/40]

"..."

Although he was eliminated, Tang Ye still got the task of stage four.

Of course, he can only look at this task. He will no longer have the opportunity to do any tasks related to the Champions League this season.

[Do you want to spend 2500 counterattack points to upgrade Vardy's Red Bull +5 to Vardy's Red Bull +6? ]

【…】

从+5到+6需要2500点逆袭点，从+6到+7同样也是。

The season is about to end, and Tang Ye now needs to improve his immediate combat effectiveness as much as possible, and upgrading Red Bull is the fastest way for him to achieve results.

[Vardy's Red Bull +7: You gain 120% extra stamina in the next 13.5 minutes]

[Viking Power: While the Red Bull effect is in effect, your perception of fatigue is slightly reduced]

Spend 5000 counterattack points to directly increase Red Bull from +5 to +7.

Then take a look at your current counterattack point balance.

Account balance: Counterattack points*2318
Considering his disadvantage in physical strength, Tang Ye also planned to upgrade [Ronaldo's Chicken Breast] to level +5, but his current counterattack point balance did not support him to do so.

There is no choice but to wait.

"call……"

After letting out a long breath, Tang Ye sat on his gaming chair.

After being loaned to Villarreal from Utrecht, he felt greater pressure.

Since joining Manchester United from Villarreal, the pressure on him has increased several times.

The high-pressure environment made him a little uncomfortable to adapt to, but he had to hold on.

Because his teammates and fans need his help!
Mr. Eric of course!
……

Tang Ye had just completed the upgrade of his props. At the same time, on the other side, Ten Hag and Van der Jag were communicating in the office.

They are working overtime again.

Of course this was not what Vandergaard meant. He was forced to work overtime because he couldn't let his boss Eric handle these things alone.

"Many young people are like this. They think they have enough ability to adjust their emotions, but in fact they don't. You can ask a few more times later. It's better to let Tom see a psychologist, and Marcus should also. That game was very difficult for us to accept."

Ten Hag and Van der Gaag were talking.

"I'll talk to them tomorrow afternoon, but... Eric, I don't think Tom is someone who needs a psychiatrist."

Vandergaard spread his hands: "You can see that he is quite optimistic. Eating his chewing gum is said to help relieve mood? I don't know if it's true or not."

Ten Hah, who was chewing gum, suddenly laughed.

"Let's not talk about the chewing gum anymore. Just remember to talk to him about it again."

……

Repost: Manchester United released the starting lineup for the home game against West Bromwich Albion, with Ashley Young leading the team and Tang Ye on the bench.

The Champions League match had just ended not long ago, so in this game Ten Hag let Tang Ye and Rashford be on the bench together and decided their playing time based on the actual situation on the field.

Sitting on the bench with Rashford, Tang Ye carefully observed the situation on the field.

"Marcus, do you think we'll play?"

“I feel like it.”

Rashford leaned back in his chair and spoke in a listless manner. The Manchester United winger obviously had not yet recovered from the defeat in the Champions League, which was why Ten Hag asked him to rest on the bench.

"The opponent played well. If we don't use our best efforts, we probably won't win."

Tang Ye nodded, agreeing with what Rashford said.

Indeed, West Bromwich Albion is now much stronger than when we met in the first half of the league.

Real-time battle report from Dongqiudi: In the 37th minute, Lingard's long shot was saved, the score on the field remained 0:0, Tang Ye began to warm up, and Rashford continued to be on standby.

【King Tang is here! 】

[I knew that GGBond was at this meeting, luckily I didn’t fall asleep right away, I made a profit this time]

[West Bromwich Albion played very well. It felt like their passing and control were smoother than Manchester United’s]

[Manchester United's passing and control only started when Tang Ye joined the team]

Standing in front of the bench and stretching, Tang Ye suddenly stopped his movements.

Because at this time Manchester United's attack started.

Lingard's through ball found Mata!
Mata passes the ball to Haller again!

boom!
Alai header!

The ball went in!
Manchester United opened the West Bromwich Albion goal before the end of the first half.

1: 0!

"Great job, Sebastian!"

Tang Ye applauded his teammates and slowly walked to Ten Hag as the players on the field celebrated: "Mr. Eric, should I still play?"

"Well, come on"

Although leading by one goal, Ten Hag still decided to let Tang Ye come on as a substitute.

Entering the midfield with a 1-goal advantage, the second half of the game soon began!

Manchester United made a substitution, Tang Ye replaced Lingard who performed well in the first half!
"come on!"

"Ok!"

After high-fiving Lingard, Tang Ye quickly ran onto the field. At the same time, the Manchester United fans in the stands began to make a commotion.

"Tom!"

"Come on, Tom!"

The camera turned to the visiting team coach Darren Moore.

"Manchester United replaced their top star player. It can be seen that the West Bromwich Albion coaching staff is under great pressure now..."

With Tang Ye coming on the pitch, Manchester United simply adjusted their game tactics.

"Come!"

Hold the ball in the middle.

Get rid of the back!

"wow!!"

Less than 10 minutes after coming on the field, Tang Ye directly demonstrated a wave of attack in the middle.

Find an opportunity!
Snapped!
Through ball to Ashley Young on the left!

Ashley Young crosses in!

Ashley Young's cross went straight out of the baseline!

Feeling a little embarrassed, Ashley Young touched his head and heard Ten Hag's voice in the distance.

"When passing the ball, adjust it before passing it! Observe carefully!"

Ashley Young always wanted to impersonate Tang Ye and wanted to make a deadly cross without any adjustment. However, Tang Ye's passing method required a lot of talent, and Ashley Young failed to learn it.

"Sorry sorry"

Raising his hand towards Ten Hag, Ashley Young led his teammates to retreat.

The time has come to the 72st minute!

clap clap!

After a series of passes on the left side, Tang Ye took the ball from Ale and then went directly to the left bottom line.

"You go inside, you go inside!"

Signaling Ale to move forward, Tang Ye got ready.

boom!
[De Bruyne's cross from the bottom level 4: realistic]

Proficiency: 552/800
The cross was hit into the penalty area.

Alai's grab!
The ball went in!
2: 0!

[You get counterattack points*10]

This assist helped Tang Ye completely get out of the frustration of losing the Champions League.

"Sebastian!"

boom!
Tangye and Haller collided, followed by Mata and Herrera.

"Come on, come on, there's more!"

Because he was substituted in the second half, and Red Bull had just risen to +7, Tang Ye was now very energetic. Tom would use his perfect mental state to influence his teammates on the field!
"Beep!"

Manchester United's direct free kick opportunity!

Tang Ye and Mata had a conversation, and finally the ball was given to Tang Ye.

The distance was a bit far, so Tang Ye did not choose to shoot directly.

boom!
He sent a low pass, aiming directly at Bailly in the penalty area.

Bailey!

With a push shot, Bailly successfully opened the West Bromwich Albion goal.

"GOOOO-AAAA-LLLL!!!"

"The ball is in!"

"3:0!"

"With this free kick opportunity, Manchester United expanded the score again!"

……

Football Report: Manchester United beat West Bromwich Albion 3-0 at home, with Tang Ye coming off the bench and providing two assists.

Although he came on as a substitute, Tang Ye still won the best player of the game.

"Yes, that's what we said before. As a 19-year-old player, Tang Ye's ability to adjust his mentality is outstanding."

He Wei praised Tang Ye highly in the live broadcast room.

The future of professional players is closely related to their character, and there is no need to say much about how Tang Ye's ability to adjust his competitive state will help his career.

"3, 2, 1"

"Roar!!!"

Back in the locker room, Tang Ye and Ale roared at the air, making the originally quiet locker room lively.

"Ok ok, that's it"

Ten Hag and Van der Gag returned to the locker room together, and the Manchester United players who were playing around quickly gave up the middle position.

"We didn't play very well in the first half today, but we found our rhythm in the second half. I am very satisfied with the second half because we did well in all aspects."

Ten Hahe spoke slowly.

Tang Ye calmed down.

He was very happy because he knew that Ten Haage was praising him, but Mr. Eric did not single him out.

Looking around at the players in the room, Ten Hag continued what he had not finished saying: "I know that the Champions League has a great impact on you. I am the same as you. I can't accept it. But we were eliminated. This is a fact. We can't think about the Champions League anymore."

"..."

None of the Manchester United players spoke.

The reason why Ten Hag brought up this matter specifically after today's game was mainly because he saw it very clearly from the sidelines.

"Some players haven't adjusted to your condition yet, which makes me very disappointed"

Ten Hag looked at Ashley Young, Smalling, Rodri and others one by one: "Look forward, ok? I need you to look forward and focus on the next game. This is what you need to do now."

“It’s not the Champions League, it’s the FA Cup and the Premier League, you know what I mean, guys?”

"Come on, come here!"

At Ten Hag's call, the players came to the middle.

The great Tom will be in charge of this call.

Because Tom's voice is very fierce!
He is the best candidate!
"3, 2, 1!"

"Manchester United!"

……

On April 4, there are still two days before Manchester United’s away game against Bournemouth.

In addition to Bournemouth, Manchester United will also face Tottenham in the FA Cup semi-final on April 4, five days later.

Tottenham is obviously a more important opponent than Bournemouth, so the Manchester United coaching staff decided to prepare for both games at the same time starting today.

Coming out of the locker room, Tang Ye rubbed his hands.

ha~
Blow into your palms.

Since the beginning of April, the weather in Manchester has finally warmed up. Now you can no longer see the fog when you blow into your palms.

It’s a rare sunny day today!
It would be great if it was sunny on the day of the match against Bournemouth. Tang Ye believed that he would have a good performance playing in his favorite weather.

Thinking of this, Tang Ye took out his cell phone from his pocket.

"Wow, didn't you leave your phone in the locker room?"

Rashford walked backwards and talked to Tang Ye.

"I'll put it on the chair later. By the way, Marcus, which city is Bournemouth in? I want to check the weather forecast."

Marcus grew up in England, so it was perfect to ask him about this.

“Bourne seems to be in Bournemouth”

Well, the team name is the city name.

Tang Ye opened the weather forecast software and slowly typed in the first few letters of Bournemouth.

The game time should be at 7pm.

[11℃-12℃, with occasional clouds]

It was an evening game, with the temperature above 10 degrees, which was quite comfortable!

"Beep!"

A new day of training begins, and today's training focuses on set-piece defense.

There is no need to explain the specific reasons. Manchester United's set-piece defense was a problem last season, and Bournemouth is a team that is very good at corner kicks.

Some targeted measures must be taken, otherwise Manchester United will have a hard time on the day of the game.

In the new corner kick defense tactics, Tang Ye, who is less than 1 meters tall, was still placed outside the human wall.

Ten Hag saw Tang Ye's frustration, so he said a few words: "Play to your strengths. It's best for us to keep you outside to observe. Remember to help your teammates judge the landing point."

"no problem"

Tang Ye gave a thumbs up and stood on the side watching Van der Gag arrange the human wall positions for his teammates.

Ten Hag gave Tang Ye a task, which was to keep an eye on the offensive player at the top of the arc on the opposite side.

"This is too easy Mr. Eric, I will tackle and if he wants to shoot I will just block it"

Although he doesn't like physical confrontation, Tang Ye is always very brave when he needs to use his body to block the ball. This is a major reason why he has good defensive data in the backcourt.

"Beep!"

"Pay attention, hit the back point! Yes, Marcus, you have to get closer too, but don't get too close yet, keep a little distance."

"hurry up!"

"Pay attention to where it lands, pay attention to where it lands!"

"..."

The morning's set-piece training ended quickly, and Tang Ye sat directly on the grass to rest, with Ten Hag and Van der Gag chatting next to him.

They were talking about transfers, which are matters that players need to avoid, but when the two saw that it was Tang Ye sitting next to them, they ignored him and continued talking to themselves.

Tang Ye was actually not very interested in the transfer, but after listening to a few words, his attention suddenly focused.

Van der Gag told Ten Hag that Manchester United's youth training team had reported on a talented right winger.

Mason Greenwood is only 16 years old this year, but Manchester United scouts say he has the potential to become Manchester United's starting striker.

Greenwood!

Tang Ye knew this guy because he met Greenwood once when he first came to Manchester United and lived in the dormitory.

And he also has a Greenwood adjustment template in front of the goal.

From what Van der Gage said, it can be felt that Manchester United's assistant coach appreciates Greenwood's abilities very much.

But there is a problem.

That is, Greenwood is too young, and his speed and experience are not enough to support the high-intensity Premier League games.

“So we still have to buy people…”

Ten Hahe let out a breath.

Even if Greenwood is really a genius, it will take at least one to two years for him to become successful. What Manchester United needs now is combat power that can be used directly.

So we still have to buy a right winger!

A right winger capable of supporting the strength of the Premier League!

When talking about this issue for the first time, Ten Hag thought of several right wingers from Utrecht.

In Ten Hag's eyes, only familiar people are trustworthy.

Even if Utrecht had a right winger worth 1000 million euros, he might have taken action.

But Utrecht is not a top team in the Eredivisie, and their strongest right winger is worth less than 300 million euros. Even if he is placed in Manchester United's second team, he cannot even play as a substitute.

The gap is too big, so it is definitely unrealistic to buy a familiar right winger from Utrecht.

So who should I buy...

Which right winger in today's top five leagues is trustworthy?
"Um, Mr. Eric"

Tang Ye, who had been silent, suddenly turned around at this time: "I have a friend who also plays as a right winger. He is very good, yes, very good, I am not lying."

Ten Hahe was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.

If there is no suitable confidant available, then the confidant’s confidant might be a good choice?

It’s true that the rattan armor is very powerful.

But the icing isn’t bad either!
"Tom, who are you talking about?"

"Dembele! Oh yes, not the Dembele from Tottenham, but the one from Dortmund. Now he is playing for Barcelona."

"Dembélé?"

"no no no"

Upon discovering that the powerful friend Tang Ye mentioned was Dembele, Ten Hag quickly shook his head.

"Dembele is not good enough"

Last summer, Dembele joined Barcelona for a transfer fee of around 1.3 million euros, which attracted a lot of attention.

But he was injured in his first season at Barcelona!

So far, Dembele has only scored 3 goals in the La Liga, a statistic that Ten Hag would definitely not be impressed by!

Well, it’s useless even if Dembele is covered in sugar!
When Tang Ye heard Ten Hag say that Dembele was not good enough, he lowered his head.

Osman is awesome!

Mr. Eric will suffer a great loss if he doesn't buy him!

Top: Manchester United was unexpectedly defeated by Bournemouth 35:0 in the 1th round of the Premier League. With the FA Cup semi-final approaching, the Red Devils urgently need to adjust their competitive state.
