Chapter 627: At 1 o'clock

The 627th chapter is at one point
Gao Bo didn't know what a serious mistake he put Balotelli in the starting lineup....
In fact, Gao Bo thought that he had been well prepared before the game. He had a separate conversation with Balotelli before the game started.
"Listen, Mario! I can't change you, but I do what I say! You are my starting forward for this game, I hope you can cherish this opportunity, you are very talented, but a talented player in this world It’s too much, so I don’t care if you can cherish your talent, but as long as you are on the court, you must play for me. Don’t have too much physical contact with your opponent. If you lose the ball, don’t be angry, don’t have. Any excessive behavior, if someone irritates you, don't have any reaction, even if the referee makes the wrong decision, don't react!"
Gao Bo, standing next to the coach's bench, recalled his advice to Balotelli before the game, and he was really bitter.
At this time, Balotelli, who stepped the ball in the middle circle, was expressionless and didn't know what he was thinking.
Southampton coach Nigel Atkins stared at Balotelli.
If Southampton has any chance of winning away, the key point lies in Balotelli. Atkins was staring at Balotelli when he got Manchester City’s starting roster. Name it.
On the football field, some methods have nothing to do with skills and tactics...
Southampton's central defender Wundt is also staring at Balotelli.
In his mind is what the head coach Atkins said before the game: "Man City is a very strong opponent. Our only chance to win on the road is with Balotelli. I don't care what you use. Go irritate him! Let him lose control!"
Wundt remembered some of Balotelli’s "fun facts" before. He knew that this was a forward who was easily provoked. As a central defender, how to provoke the forward’s emotions is not Wundt’s best. On the one hand, but he must know how to do it.
.........
Balotelli didn't know he was being targeted, he felt good about himself.
Tevez and Gomez are gone. Dzeko did not perform well last season. Vardy has also struggled in the Premier League these seasons. In Balotelli’s view, this is his own starting point. Great opportunity!
That's right, when Balotelli's brain is not hot, he is still normal.
Only if you sit firmly in the starting lineup can you have the capital to show off, and...Money is a good thing. If you sit on the bench for another season, I am afraid that you will be sold off by Manchester City next season and then be forced to accept a salary cut. Maybe it's not necessarily a small team.
It's like every bad boy always thinks of the prodigal son turning back when he first started, Balotelli thinks so at this time.
When the referee blew his whistle, Balotelli kicked the ball to David Silva!
The game officially begins! ! !
Manchester City's offense didn't mean to test at all!
David Silva passed the ball to Casemiro, and Casemiro passed the ball to Eriksson's feet!
Eriksson's precise long pass directly found Hazard! !
"Hazard!! The best player in Ligue 1's first touch in the Premier League!!!"
Letkinson exclaimed for Hazard's exquisite stop this time!
Then Hazard's performance made the fans cheer loudly!
He stopped and dropped a defensive player, then paused when facing Southampton's defender, used the rhythmic time difference to easily complete the inside cut, and then kicked the shot at the edge of the penalty zone!
The football flies to the goal against the turf!
Southampton goalkeeper Cole Davis fell to the ground to save, thrilling to save the ball to the bottom line!
The Manchester City fans first sighed with regret, then immediately applauded!
"As soon as the game started, Manchester City gave Southampton a disarm. Hazard's in-cut shot made Davis a embarrassing save!!"
Gao Bo also stood up and applauded after seeing Hazard's performance this time.
He applauded and said to his assistant Moya: "See, with these two sides, we are not afraid of the fast pace of the Premier League!"
Moya also nodded. The coaching staff simplified the team's tactics and emphasized the rapid advancement of the two sides. For this, Moya, who has more than ten years of experience in La Liga, has some doubts, but Gao Bo knows England better than him. Football.
Here, the simple and fast football style prevails, and the loose penalty scale also encourages physical confrontation.
Therefore, Gao Bo requires his players to speed up the passing speed and tear the opponent's defense with fast passes. This is a fine-tuning of tactics to adapt to the Premier League.
As many players have no experience in the Premier League, in the first half of the season, Manchester City’s main goal is to ensure the results while allowing new players to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League as soon as possible. At the same time, the team also began to arrange more complex tactical training. .
The coaching staff's work at Manchester City is proceeding in an orderly manner.
However, things will always happen some accidents.
David Silva took a corner kick~EbookFREE.me~ The football was grabbed by Kompany, the Manchester City central defender scored with a header, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar.
Both Manchester City's two attacks created a great threat.
It seems that it is very difficult for Southampton to retreat in the away game.
And when the televised replay of Manchester City's attack just happened, boos rang from the stands.
When the TV screen was cut back, Balotelli spread his hands, and the referee opposite him pulled out a red card from him...
The camera then explained what happened in the penalty area.
When Manchester City's corner kick was over, Balotelli seemed to have an argument with Wundt.
After that, the two of them kept chattering, and then Balotelli suddenly lost control of his emotions. He stretched out his hand to Wundt...
And this time did not escape the eyes of the referee.
Red card!
Not negotiable!
The TV camera was given high waves.
Gao Bo opened his mouth, what else could he say?
Who would have thought that Balotelli would have applied for a red card to leave less than two minutes after he played.
This is not in the Gaobo plan at all!
Where Gao Bo didn't see it, Wundt and Southampton coach Atkins met.
The eyes of the two of them flashed with triumphant expressions, but they were not discovered by others, and their conspiracy succeeded.
Balotelli is just a pile of dry wood, just a little!
......
"About the story of Balotelli and I in Manchester City, I can even write a two-hundred-page book, but the content of the book will not be a grand drama, but a comedy..."
Many years later, when Gao Bo wrote about Balotelli in his memoirs, he wrote this sentence. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
