Vol 4 Chapter 626: The first loss was defeated


The so-called undefeated golden body is shaped to be broken, otherwise even the word "undefeated" itself will lose its meaning.
On January 13, 2018, in the 23rd round of the 2017-18 Premier League, Manchester City lost to Liverpool 3:4 away. Not only did the 18-game winning streak in the league for nearly five months come to an abrupt end, the season's unbeaten record also came to an end.
In the frenzy at Anfield, even though Manchester City once won two goals in a row, they still failed to keep their unbeaten status in the Premier League this season. Liverpool became the first team to pull Manchester City down in the league this season.
Before Guardiola's Manchester City turned the Premier League into a super-strong Bundesliga, but since today, the only team that remains unbeaten in the top five leagues this season is Barcelona.
This defeat did not change the reality that Manchester City led the standings alone. Although Blue Moon's advantage was reduced to 8 points after Manchester United defeated Stoke City 3-0 the next day, no one ignored them and missed two games.
The biggest significance of this game is to let the aspiring people of the Premier League know that Manchester City is not invincible. Blue Moon has the best players, the most gorgeous attack line, but also the most cheating defense. Liverpool has released the operating instructions of ‘how to beat Manchester City’ to the Premier League.
3:4 is definitely not the end of the world for Manchester City, especially after the sudden 4:1, Manchester City's resilience and unyielding have been praised by the outside world.
One yard goes to one yard. The first 65 minutes are shit, and the next half an hour is gold. Liverpool did win, but Manchester City did not lose.
Because of this, Guardiola, who is accustomed to not seeing others eat white buns, appeared very calm after the game. He summarized the game fairly and generously.
"Congratulations to Liverpool, they are indeed the better performers in the whole game." Gua Shuai said: "It is really difficult to play aggressive games at Anfield and Liverpool. They have the basis of attacking football behind them , Although we did a really good job in controlling Liverpool’s counterattack."
"But football is like this. Manchester City was in chaos in five minutes and completely lost the game. Liverpool deserved three points. I am very grateful that Manchester City is still the leader of the standings, with the most goals and the least conceded. Team."
Still not convinced by the facts.
Because of the victory, Chamberlain, who had one pass and one shot and opened the scoring, scored a game-high 9 points and became the best player of the game. But in the end, Zhuo Yang, who completed the record of the 21st consecutive killing at the buzzer, also received the praise he deserved.
Now people think back, when Manchester City defeated Leicester City two months ago, they sang Zhuo Yangping's Premier League record of "12 Kills" loudly. How naive and how unseen.
However, Messi completed the '21 streak' four years ago, scoring a total of 33 goals in 21 games, while Zhuo Yang only scored 25 goals in 21 games. Compared with Mei's boss, Zhuo Yang's job is economical.
Of the 21 games, only one scored in 19 games, one scored twice, and one hat trick.
Better still, Zhuo Yang is stable enough, but it can also be said that he is not addictive.
Excluding 25 goals, Zhuo Yang also contributed 11 assists and 59 steals in these 21 games, which is beyond the reach of Messi.
More importantly, Messi’s ‘21 Kill Streak’ has become history, while Zhuo Yang’s ‘21 Kill Streak’ is in progress.
Zhuo Yang said: "Messi called me just now and he congratulated me. I asked him if he scored again in the next game, would he congratulate me? Leo said that there is no need, but he Will invite me to dinner."
"The continuous goal record is very meaningful, but the meaning is based on winning the championship. If I didn't score today but Manchester City won, I would not hesitate to make this choice."
"On this point, I believe Messi and I have the same view."
"So today shouldn't be my personal celebration party. All successes and failures will need to be discussed at the end of the season."
"It doesn't matter whether I can continue to score next. It is more important for Manchester City to forget today's defeat and continue the victory."
Zhuo Yang has said so, and Manchester City will naturally have to reflect on it.
This is just a league game. If the defense in the Champions League knockout matches is so cheating, there will be no tears at that time.
The transfer window opens, no matter how Manchester City play in other positions, they can't hide their desire for defenders. Rich and impatient, now the lion is open to anyone asking for a price from Manchester City.
So Manchester City is really envious and jealous when looking at the projects that they have successfully acquired.
The day after the match against Liverpool, there was another big news in the transfer market. Arsenal, Chelsea and Dortmund played a major shift in the center.
Kong Er Lengzi is in desperate need of a strong center, and he has taken a fancy to Arsenal's Grand Giroud, but the professor is afraid that the striker will be damaged by selling;
Aubameyang wants to go to Arsenal, and the professor loves him too, but Dortmund can sell it, but the price is low but not. Arsenal are habitually reluctant to make money;
Bashuayi couldn't play at Chelsea. He shouted all day to leave. Sevilla said I would take it for free.
In the end, Chelsea had an idea to be the peacemaker in the middle. They first gave Giroud an offer of 18 million pounds. The contract between Grand Giroud and Arsenal will expire in one year. The price is very conscientious.
Chelsea then agreed to loan Bashuayi to Dort for free to make up for the attack loss after Aubameyang left.
Then Arsenal and Dortmund took a step back and set Aubameyang's worth at a value of 58 million pounds acceptable to both sides.
As a result, an NBA-style triangle transfer was completed, and the three took what they needed, and they were all happy.
Chelsea continued to explore another natural center forward after Drogba; Dortmund received their favorite banknotes and center forward supplement; Arsenal could not keep Sanchez in reality, UU reading www.uukanshu. com has won a new world-class forward.
Aubameyang became the No. 1 team in Arsenal history, worth 63 million euros, and also got the team's highest weekly salary of 180,000 pounds.
Although Liverpool reluctantly cut Coutinho, they bought Van Dyke, who can greatly fill the defense, and from the 4:3 Manchester City this Chamberlain's excellent performance, it is enough to make KOP forget the bird.
Chelsea supplemented Giroud, Arsenal ate the coveted Aubameyang, and even Tottenham bought winger Lucas from Paris. The undefeated and dead Manchester City will attract animals and the ferocious BIG6 in the second half of the schedule.
Guardiola failed to break his 19-game winning streak in Bayern after all, but Manchester City’s 18-game winning streak made the first two in the history books belong to him.
It is impossible to follow Arsenal to win the championship unbeaten, at least this season is gone, but it is not a new starting point to start again.
Forget Liverpool, the latest problem for Manchester City is that other people's homes can rest, but they can't.
