Chapter 56 The definition of omnipotence!

"Xiaopang"'s injury was confirmed after the game. It was a strain on the left thigh muscle, and it took two weeks to recover.

Without Rooney, Manchester United's attack power has indeed been greatly affected. Even Simon Grayson doesn't like this. "Marteau United Twins" is not a waste of time. The goals of Shaq and Rooney are the guarantee that the "Red Devils" will sweep their opponents. Shaq has scored 83 goals for Manchester United in various competitions, while Rooney has scored 48 goals. In addition to the two of them, Nani, who ranked third in the number of goals, only 7 goals, and Rooney can easily detect the importance of Rooney from the data.

Simon Grayson did not smile at the post-match press conference. Compared to eliminating Barcelona to enter the Champions League quarterfinals, he was more worried that after Manchester United lost "Little Fatty", who else could take on the offensive task with Shaq.

Van Persie?

The Dutch is old and he is already on the summer team cleaning list!

Hernandez!?

"Little Pea" can only shoot by himself, his passing and skillful things have not improved due to his age. At the age of 26, he has become a marginal man at Manchester United.

As for the others... their goal ability is not enough to be the second-in-command of Manchester United's offense. Because of his personal characteristics, Shaq also has high requirements for his partners.

At this time, Simon Grayson couldn't help but miss Tevez and Pivkowski of Leeds United, and even Jonny Hausen's sharp breakthrough made him envious.

In an interview with reporters, the Manchester United coach admitted frankly that his team was currently lacking a scorer: "Wayne's accidental injury has caused us to encounter considerable difficulties. At present, the team has no reliable scorer except Shaq. The next period of time will be a critical moment for us to solve this problem. I hope the team can tap potential internally and digest the difficulties we will face in advance."

While those opponents were gloating and waiting to watch the fun, Simon Grayson certainly would not surrender, and he did not ask for help from the reserve team or the youth team. He had some unique British personalities, such as... paranoid!

Simon Grayson will only believe that players who have played for themselves and performed well, and those who do not know each other will never be able to use them easily unless they are at the critical moment of life and death. It was also because of the situation that the situation was forced by Manchester United were obviously not at the critical moment of life and death. The team is not unable to play without "Little Fatty". He has other ways.

After some research and discussion with Lerotale and Zanetti, Simon Grayson made a tactical adjustment that shocked his assistant Tony McAndrew and the coaches of the coaches... Use Shaq to play center!

This "center" is no longer the front midfielder, virtual center, and a No. 9 and a half complex that Shak is playing, but the regular center!

After adjustment, there is only Shaq on the front line of Manchester United, and there will be no players close to him behind him. Shaq will have huge room for activity, and whether he can shoulder the burden of scoring goals depends on how strong his personal ability is and how he will perform in his new position.

Di Maria and Nani appeared in the position of the wing forward in two separate ways. At the same time, they will also share the role of wingers. Once they get the chance, they will decisively encircle the goal.

The two midfielders are Gantor and Clevili, and they will be responsible for organizing the team's offense and sending shells to the front.

In Ganso, Franny was still the one who appeared in the midfield behind Clevily. This time, Franny would completely turn into a ball grab machine without Shaq helping defend in front of him. Franny had to rely on himself to form protection in front of the back line.

Simon Grayson's adjustment to the back line was focused on the two full-backs. Because of the emptiness on both sides of the midfield, the two full-backs will have greater room for activity, and Jose Angel and Van Deville were asked to insert more actively in assists.

Although he realized that the team's playing like this may cause insufficient suppression in the frontcourt and could no longer maintain Manchester United's current oppressive style of play, Simon Grayson has no good idea. He has to adjust the team's lineup until the summer transfer. Now the "brutal Simon" has made up his mind to carry out the big cleaning and supplementary efforts this summer, and completely complete his transformation of the "Red Devils".

Shaq still accepted the request made by Simon Grayson without objection. The continuous goals made Shaq, a defensive player from a midfielder, already have an offensive heart. No matter how strong or dense the opponent's defense line is, he can always find loopholes at a glance. This change is an instinctive change. In addition, he is determined to challenge Pele's goal record. If he wants to become the player with the most goals in football history, if he is closer to the goal, he will obviously have more opportunities, so he is not at all reluctant to play in the center.

Just three days later, Manchester United ushered in the sixth round of the FA Cup away against Swansea, and the latest "Red Devils"'s latest tactics were made so hurry.

In fact, it is just for Manchester United and Simon Grayson. This tactical style of de-changing into a 4-3-3 formation is still very common in other teams, especially those with strong centers who often use this tactic.

When Manchester United's new tactics were unveiled, every opponent who was waiting to see Simon Grayson's lively laughed this time. Let Shaq play as the center. Isn't this just sacrificing his characteristics of fast speed, strong impact and abnormal long-range shooting ability?

Can such a tactical arrangement be considered a solution to Rooney's injury problem?

Countless people laughed out loud, but in this away FA Cup game, Manchester United's performance... to be precise, Shaq's performance, which shocked the glasses all over the floor, also made Simon Grayson feel unfamiliar with Shaq's personal abilities.

At the beginning of the game, Shaq seemed to have not found any feeling in his new position. He headed the ball twice and failed to cause a threat. He even failed to score a goal in front of the goal. However, when the game was 22 minutes, the wind turned...

Manchester United made a quick counterattack on the left, and Di Maria ran along the sideline and made a cross near the baseline. The ball flew into the small penalty area on the left side of Swansea, and Swansea's central defender Gilgalon also got the ball first, but after he paused for a moment, a red figure fell to the ground and stretched out his legs and slid over!

"Bang!"

Shaq just poked it with his left toe, and the ball flew into the lower left corner of the Swansea goal two meters away... 1:0, Manchester United took the lead!

After scoring the goal, Shaq seemed to find a feeling all of a sudden. When the game reached 37 minutes, he received a pass from Cleville in the penalty area on the left. After leaning against Swansea's defensive player, he forced his left leg to swing it, and kicked the ball into Swansea's right goal with a "bang"... 2:0!

In the 66th minute of the second half, Di Maria created a penalty kick, Shaq scored a hat-trick, and Manchester United also completely locked in the victory with a huge advantage of 3:0.

When the game reached 81 minutes, Manchester United got a free kick from 30 meters away from Swansea's goal on the right side of the frontcourt. Shaq made a angrily shot after running. The ball whistled in front of the goal with a "huh" sound, and it flew into the goal with a whistling through the right post...4:0!

Although Swansea scored a goal by forward Danny Graham in the 86th minute, he was still eliminated at home 1:4. The best player in this game naturally fell on Shaq, who played the "big four-game" heavyweight scene when he played the center for the first time.

Simon Grayson smiled at the press conference after the game: "I'm very happy to see another Shaq's ability being developed. Although it's the first time he played in the center, he has accomplished many things that the center can't do in his lifetime, and scored four goals in one game! I believe that as Shaq adapts to the new position and the team's familiarity with the new tactics, we will perform better! Wayne should be able to recover from his injuries now. When he comes back, we will continue to attack the Champions League and FA Cup championships."

Now the "brutal Simon" is too lazy to talk about the league championship, so it is really no longer difficult for Manchester United. His goal has long been to the Champions League and the FA Cup. If he can lead the team to win the "four championships" again, he will become a legend!

Simon Grayson regarded the league championship as a treasure, but it was really a bit too small. Just four days later, Manchester United beat Fulham 6:1 away. Shaq scored another "hat trick" in the game, Nani also scored a goal, and Brazilian midfielder Gansu also stood up and scored twice.

Although Shaq's robot bull has one less than the previous game, his performance in this game made Simon Grayson more satisfied because he performed more like a center.

All three goals were scored in the penalty area. In 17 minutes and 53 minutes, they were typical center skills to turn around and forcefully shoot. In 68 minutes, they were headed when the team was serving a corner kick.

After this game, European football was shocked by Shaq's magic again. The center forward who scored 7 goals in two games was already the strength of the world's top center forward. However, Shaq, a player who played as a midfielder when he debuted, did it. As his position gradually moved forward, the number of goals continued to increase. It seemed that as long as it was the middle of the court, he had no position that he could not be competent, and his performance in every position was so outstanding.
