Chapter 71 Maybe

"Can't sleep?"

The room was pitch black and a woman's voice sounded faintly.

Lin Sen, who was treated as a pillow by Boya next to him, and with the other hand, he dug softly.

"Because of the day after tomorrow?" Boya adjusted his sleeping position slightly, making his body more in line with the current posture of the two people, and he was still exhaling like an orchid.

"Probably." Lin Sen was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly, "I thought I wouldn't."

A week ago, Irving's goal worth a thousand gold medal in the countdown stage turned the expectations of all Manchester City fans into vain. Lin Sen had to accept the fact that the league championship trophy was "returned to the original owner" at the last moment. Although he did not have much expectations for this trophy that had been mostly held in the hands of others early in the morning, when the fact happened, he was still more or less disappointed.

However, just like the previous FA Cup victory, the frustration of losing the league championship was soon forgotten in the intense preparations for the next game.

The final "report card" of the 10/11 season was that Manchester United beat Manchester City with one point to the top league, which was also their twelfth Premier League champion. After winning this championship, Sir Alexander also realized his bold statement that year: to drive Liverpool off the throne. Manchester City, as the defending champion, had a counterattack in the last moment, but they still successfully qualified for the Champions League next season with the second place, Chelsea third, and Wenger's team fourth, followed by Tottenham, Liverpool and Everton.

It is worth mentioning that Liverpool, who has just been pulled down from the top league championship by Manchester United, has won the most championships in the top league. After winning Dagshley back halfway through the season, although Liverpool's performance has improved greatly and finally ranked sixth in the league, their luck has not changed much.

In addition to the top four qualifying for the Champions League, the fifth place can directly qualify for the UEFA Cup, while the other two UEFA Cup qualifying belong to the FA Cup and the League Cup respectively. If we follow previous years, since most of the teams entering the finals of the two cups are strong teams in the top five, the sixth most of the league can get a European qualification. However, this season, although the FA Cup championship belongs to Manchester City, the runner-up is Stoke City, and the League Cup championship was even won by Birmingham, which has been relegated. This means that Liverpool, the sixth place, can only be left empty this season.

"I thought you wouldn't, either." Boya chuckled.

Boya came to Manchester three days ago. Before that, she had not met Lin Sen for a month. Of course, this was not because of the problem with their relationship. Both of them had been in contact. In fact, as a bystander, Lin Sen had never been optimistic about this "long-distance relationship". He had a "learning" about this. First of all, mutual trust is an unavoidable issue. The so-called beauty of distance is completely nonsense at this time.

However, the current states of him and Boya determine that it is impossible for them to be as good as paint every day, and if they are in this state, they will probably not be able to meet them. Of course, both of them actually know that such a state is not a long-term solution after all, unless they are really planning to be dewy lovers.

"I am also a human being, and I will be nervous if I am a human being." Lin Sen said casually.

Boya, who was originally pillowing on Lin Sen's arms, suddenly turned over and put his ear on Lin Sen's chest. After a while, Lin Sen was confused and said, "I didn't see how fast my heart beats."

Lin Sen laughed in silence.

"If the heart beats faster the day after tomorrow, it wouldn't be nervous, it's sick."

Boya thought for a while, and seemed to feel that his actions just now became a little naive, and he immediately chuckled.

Immediately afterwards, she wanted to turn over from Lin Sen's body, but at this time, she suddenly realized that her body was suddenly tightly held by Lin Sen's arms.

"What are you doing?" Boya seemed to be aware of Lin Sen's attempt. In the dark, some invisible blush suddenly appeared on her fair earlobes, but her voice was still dull.

"What do you think?" Lin Sen said with a wicked smile.

After a long drought, a rain of rain, and a dry tree meets a fire. The two of them had no trace of their bodies before, but at this time, if Lin Sen could still focus on his mind, he would have ignored his dignity as a man.

"ah……"

In the darkness, I soon heard a beautiful voice from a woman, and then... I used my imagination.

The League Cup ends, the FA Cup ends, and the League ends.

According to the usual season, at this time, the English media can start to warm up the summer transfer, but now, a Manchester derby that may be the heaviest in history has allowed all the English media to focus all their energy on this game. In fact, it is not just the English media, but in the past week, Carrington has become the most lively place in the entire European football landscape.

Faced with such high attention, both Manchester United and Manchester City have taken some restrictions, such as closed training.

In fact, Manchester United and Manchester City, two teams that live in the same league, the same city, and even the training base are adjacent to each other. They know each other's strengths and weaknesses. In this case, the so-called closed training is just a targeted training, because no one wants to under the spears of a lot of reporters, all their training content in the morning will be reported or even recorded in the afternoon. There are even detailed analysis.

In addition to training, of course, the media could not be willing to wait for the start of the game in a regular manner. They also tried to interview the head coaches of the two teams. Although they knew that the media had bad intentions, Ferguson still happily accepted the interview. Of course, the intention could not be simple.

"I never thought that the final opponent would be Manchester City. In fact, after the draw in the quarterfinals, I always thought that our opponents were probably Real Madrid or Barcelona. Of course, now I would be happy to meet Lin at Wembley Stadium. I think this will be a wonderful game, but I hope this game will not be the last reenactment."

Not only was he vaguely provoking his opponent, Ferguson even took this opportunity to "remind" the world again: Manchester United lost in the Manchester derby in the semi-finals of the FA Cup this season, which was not a war.

Ferguson took the lead and the media was naturally ecstatic, but this time, Linson released Ferguson's pigeon.

When the media couldn't wait to ask Lin Sen what he had to respond to Ferguson's words, Lin Sen directly spread his hands and played Tai Chi: I don't know what Sir Ferguson wants to say, but I agree with his words, this will be a wonderful game.

This is obviously not the reporter's expected answer, but just as they wanted to continue asking questions, Lin Sen had already made an excuse to turn around and leave.

Have a verbal battle with Ferguson? Crazy?

All the world knows that psychological warfare has always been Ferguson's specialty, especially with the precedent of former Manchester City coach Kevin Keegan, anyone who wants to have a verbal battle with Ferguson needs to be mentally prepared. After coming to England, Linson has always been "staying away" with this. Of course, this is not because he is afraid of squirting against Ferguson, but because such verbal battles, no matter whether he loses or wins in the end, will not benefit the team.

And, don't forget that Ferguson's name is followed by a "private r". This means that in the country that claims to be gentlemen, when you stand in front of Ferguson, you are already shorter.

Compared to this, Lin Sen hopes to focus more on the preparations for the game.

The final venue is Wembley Stadium, England.

For both teams, the advantage of the venue is that neither side needs to go to the finals several days in advance to adapt, nor do they need to consider too much time and place. For Manchester City, one of the more advantages they have over Manchester United is that they have just won a championship on this stadium.

Of course, this is just a small advantage and is not enough to determine what.

The key to the victory or defeat of the game is ultimately due to strength.

For Manchester United, after the team eliminated Barcelona, ​​Tang Hua had already included all Manchester United's information in his own intelligence scope.

Unlike the two generals who can only sit in the stands in the final, Manchester United is in a uniform position, with no players suspended, and in terms of injuries, only the old ward Hargreaves cannot play. Other players theoretically have the possibility of playing, not to mention morale, not to mention that they just beat Manchester City to win the league championship. Even if they lost to Manchester City in the FA Cup final, they were transformed into an advantage by Ferguson. In short, in terms of fighting spirit, Manchester City cannot have any advantage.

As for tactics, as mentioned earlier, the two teams have no secrets at all. The two teams have had three matches this season, and Lin Sen has an absolute advantage, two wins and one draw. But the league is different from the cup, and the most comparable one is undoubtedly the last FA Cup match. In that game, both teams seem to have put too much energy on destroying the opponent's rhythm, which has disrupted their own rhythm. The final result is well known that although Manchester City won the game, it is not convincing.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Lin Sen has focused on practicing in recent closed training, not a new formation or a strange move, but a very ordinary set-piece. Set-piece is a big concept, including free kicks, corner kicks and penalty kicks.

Needless to say, free kicks and corner kicks have always been one of the most effective ways to break the game deadlock, and the penalty kick...

This is the final, you have to consider all possible situations that you may face, right?
