Vol 5 Chapter 207: He is more difficult than he thought

In the Atlético de Madrid locker room, each player is very relaxed, they communicate with each other, and some people listen to the song to relax the mood, and discuss how to play in the second half.
The atmosphere over Manchester City was completely wrong.
Mancini's face was somber, he stared at the players, just like the criminals who might commit crimes-he wanted to find problems with the players.
No one wants to admit that it is his problem. As a successful coach, Mancini does the same. He does not want to admit that he is worse than the young Chinese. He knew clearly that his tactical thoughts and ability to lead the team were far from each other, so Manchester City and Atletico Madrid played so poorly. But he was unwilling to admit this.
So Mancini wanted to find problems from the players. If it was the players' problems, it was not his problem.
But after thinking for a long time, Mancini still did not find it.
Every player tried very hard. Although they were two goals behind, no players did not play seriously in the last minute of the first half.
Mancini found himself unable to blame the players.
Of course, he can put the blame on the players regardless, but after that, he will lose all prestige and all control on the team, and no player will be willing to continue to trust him.
In order to win or lose a game, it is totally not worth it.
He must face failure.
Through the first half of the game, Mancini knew that Manchester City still had a long way to go to beat Atletico Madrid. It was not a player's ability, but a tactical issue.
The match between the two teams perfectly illustrates the importance of tactics and cooperation.
The personal abilities of Manchester City players are by no means worse than Atletico Madrid, but the gap between the two teams is too great in terms of the overall team coordination and the tactics players are familiar with.
This is the root cause of failure.
Mancini was even more helpless because of the reasons. This is not a short-term solution, nor a transfer. It can be solved by introducing a few stars. It may take one season, two seasons, or even several seasons. In order to make the team really improve.
Thinking of this, Mancini was puzzled.
The young Chinese, after arriving at Atletico Madrid, only took a season to turn Atletico Madrid into such a player. The tactical style has changed a lot, and the lineup has changed most of them. Then their strength has advanced by leaps ... The coach looked incredible.
The speed at which the opponent changes the team ... it's too fast!
The same thing came to him, there was no way to solve it in a short time, and he couldn't think of a good way to deal with this game.
A feeling of powerlessness poured into my heart.
Isn't ... no matter how hard you try, you can't let Manchester City get rid of each other's influence completely?
As long as he coaches Manchester City, must he live in the shadow of the other side?
Mancini is not willing to admit defeat!
The Italian gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He decided to break the boat and sink. Anyway, losing one ball is also losing, losing two balls, three balls, and even more teams, all losing three points. After considering other issues, let the team let go offensively.
Do n’t those fans always hope Manchester City can play the offensive football they used to have? We will try to do this to satisfy your wishes and let you see what it looks like in Manchester City where the offensive has broken out completely!
So in the remaining time, Mancini adjusted the tactics.
He gave up the pre-game layout and proved an invalid defensive strategy in the game, but let the team attack completely and play against Atletico Madrid.
Many players were relieved.
They don't want to continue to defend for 45 minutes. The kind of game that only defends and doesn't see the hope of scoring a goal is a real breakdown!

After the start of the second half, Manchester City made substitutions and they replaced De Jong with Aguero.
De Jong is a member of the Dutch national team. His playing on the wing has always been stable. His offensive and defensive ability is not bad. He is a relatively balanced midfielder. Aguero needless to say that he was the number one star of Atletico Madrid last season. In this summer, the transfer king is worth 77.5 million euros, which proves his ability, and he can be said to be a pure offensive player.
This substitution meant that Manchester City was about to launch an offensive. At the same time, it also meant that Mancini admitted that he had failed in formulating tactics. His defensive counterattack did not work. Instead, he now needs to temporarily adjust the offensive tactics.
Wan Sheng was not surprised to see this substitution.
At the moment of the Manchester City crisis, Aguero must be on the stage. Although he has not been fully integrated into Manchester City ’s tactical system, it is difficult to compete with Dzeco for the main position, but Aguero is not limited to the center position. Position, he can perform well.
This is the ability of the world's top players.
Manchester City's offensive methods are actually just a few of them. The system relies on the side lanes and the middle lanes. But in fact, in simple terms, their offensive methods rely on the players and the stars.
Midway relies on David Silva, side wins on Nasri and Aguero, there is no choice on the striker line, there is only one Zheke.
Wan Sheng is not worried about Manchester City's offense.
In the world of football, it can be said that this way of attacking solely on the player's ability has long been behind the times. Although it can sometimes exert good power, in front of Atletico Madrid, it is still far behind Not enough, not to mention Aguero and Nasri. Atletico Madrid are not even afraid of Messi and C-Ronaldo.
In fact, the key point is the blockade of Manchester City Center, which is the core of David Silva.
As long as David Silva's points can be held, it will be difficult for Manchester City to play together. Without cooperation, the players will fight each other and the threats they can pose are limited.
Before the game, Wan Sheng had explained to David Silva. Under Morris and Thiago Silva's 'special care', what can this former disciple do?
Wansheng is looking forward to it.
He tilted Erlang's legs and patiently appreciated the game.

When arranging the play against Manchester City before the game, Wan Sheng mainly targeted David Silva, not even Aguero.
But in the game, Manchester City striker Zheke felt the most depressed.
Who was the hottest striker in the Bundesliga during the 2008-2009 season? In the first half of the season, more people remembered Ibisevich in Hoffenheim, and looking around the entire season, many people found that Wolfsburg ’s Dzeco has become a representative of a new generation of bombers.
More and more fans remember this big 1.93 Bosnia Herzegovina big man, remember his various shots and goals.
Before joining the Bundesliga Wolfsburg in 2007, Zheke only played in Taplis in the Czech First Division.
Due to his excellent performance in the Czech Republic, Magath, who was then coach of Wolfsburg, signed him from Teplice for 4 million euros. In the first Bundesliga season, he scored 5 goals and 3 assists in 12 games.
In the 2008-09 Bundesliga, which is the second season of Zheke, the Bosnian striker started to explode.
The black and white double team composed of Zheke and Grafitte led Wolfsburg to a blast. Zheke scored 25 league goals in 33 games. In May 2009, Zheke played against Hoffenheim and Hat tricks were staged in Hanover's two-week competition. In just 4 games in May, he has scored 9 goals.
In the 2009-2010 season, Zheke scored 23 goals in the Bundesliga, winning the Bundesliga scorer king.
With outstanding performance in the Bundesliga, Zheke has attracted the attention of other league giants. On January 8, 2011, Manchester City officially announced the signing of Wolfsburg striker Zheke. The contract was signed in June 2015. The English media disclosed , Zheke transfer fee is about 27 million pounds, about 32.5 million euros.
Only half a season, Zheke has determined his main position, even Aguero is difficult to shake.
Although born in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a non-football powerhouse, Zheke ’s career can be described as smooth, so he is very confident and can even be said to be a bit proud. Even if Manchester City has been suppressed in the first half, he thinks it is the entire team, or It is said that it is a teammate's play problem, which has nothing to do with him.
He believes that as long as he has the opportunity, he can help Manchester City score goals.
Mancini changed the tactics in the midfield, let the team attack, and strive to score goals, Zheke felt the opportunity came, he and David Silva have been very good cooperation, do not think that the Atletico Madrid defense can stop him Impact, so he felt it was not difficult to score goals.
But reality soon shattered his fantasy.
Zheke met Morris.
Just before this, his 34-year-old midfielder who 'looked down' made him feel powerless.
Zheke is one meter tall and 93 meters tall. He is a strong and strong guy on the football field. His original idea was that when he met Morris, he would use his body to force his body regardless of the opponent ... Then he failed.
Three consecutive failures!
The first time was at the forefront of the penalty area. After Derko got the ball, Morris came to defend. Zheke's position is good, as long as he breaks through Morris, he can create a single-pole ball.
But this time, Zheke just started and the ball was cut off!
"This guy is really accurate!"
Zheke sighed, and he was very unwilling to lose. Soon the second opportunity came. Manchester City launched a quick counterattack. Nasri passed diagonally to Zheke. Zheke drove the ball forward and Morris stopped again. .
Zheke took the ball and stared at Morris, changing his feet twice in a row, and then rushed forward.
This direct breakthrough is very beneficial to the attacking side.
If the two have a physical collision, the defending side is likely to stop the foul, otherwise it will be difficult to stop the ball player.
Morris decisively chose ... cutting!
Morris fell directly to the ground and shoveled the ball accurately on the ball. Zheke and Morris came to the opposite foot, but the standing side definitely kicked the fallen side, so the ball was kicked to the side again, Zhe Ke fell to the ground without suspense.
Zhe Ke stood up with a grin, Morris gave him a smile, and pulled him up friendly.
It is like embodying the 'sports spirit'.
But in the view of Zheke, it was simply a provocation!
So again for the third time.
Zheke and Morris snatched the ball together, the two directly collided, Morris took a step back, and Zheke fell directly to the ground, grinning at his arm with his teeth.
This is a reasonable reload.
The referee did not give a penalty, Zheke fell to the ground, and Morris did not continue to play, but kicked the ball out of the sideline, once again showing the spirit of fair competition.
Zheke is completely convinced ...
Not because of being broken three times in a row, nor because of the "sports spirit" that Morris showed, but the direct collision just now. He voluntarily struck Morris, but it felt like it was on an iron plate.
Zheke grinned with painful teeth and only got up from the grass for a long time.
He finally understood the words of teammate David Silva, "He is more difficult than he thought."
Zheke's offense is not good, and it is also a microcosm of Manchester City's overall attack. In other positions, their cooperation is difficult to play, and their personal offense is also greatly restricted. After 20 minutes in the second half, Manchester City's offensive effect is not good. They There were only two shots, one threatened the Atletico Madrid goal, but Adam Johnson's shot was not able to hit the force and was easily saved by De Gea.
At these 20 minutes, Atletico Madrid also had bad news-Raul Garcia was injured.
Raúl García was injured in a fight with Yaya Touré. He reached the leg when he reached the end, and he didn't stand up while lying on the ground.
The referee hurriedly signaled the team doctor to enter.
Wan Sheng hurried over to meet the team doctor. The team doctor thought that Raul Garcia was a sprained muscle, but it still required further examination.
j-Rodriguez played.
After j-Rodriguez played for Raúl Garcia, Atlético Madrid ’s tactics have not been adjusted. It is still based on a rapid suppression of offense. Afterwards, in the 79th minute of the game, Ozil relied on his personal ability to The left flank cuts into the middle, with a sudden cold shot to help Atletico Madrid score the third goal.
At this point, the game lost its suspense.
Seeing Ozil hit the goal, Mancini threw the water bottle directly on the ground in annoyance. The water was sprayed everywhere. The camera captured this scene, and also took the gloomy photo of Manchester City Chairman Mubarak. face.
"Atletico scored the third goal, or Ozil scored. Last summer, Ozil transferred to Atletico, Mancini did not stop, in Mancini's team, Ozil is difficult He found a place, but he went to Atletico Madrid, but he became the absolute main force on the left. This game also proved his ability. Seeing Ozil's performance, Mancini must be in a bad mood ~ www.mtlnovel .com ~ Maybe ... Manchester City Chairman Mubarak is the same. If Ozil is so good, he will not sell Ozil to Atletico. In fact, two seasons after Wan Sheng left, Ozil It ’s really hard to play the main role, and he ca n’t compare with his former partner David Silva in playing time.

"This may be the gap in the level of coaching." The English media did not mind ridiculing Mancini. From their perspective, there is indeed a big gap between Mancini and Wansheng. "Wansheng can put every player in the right place. Their position allows them to play well. Look at Atlético ’s bench, more of them are young stars. These young stars do n’t mind waiting for more opportunities. Wansheng wo n’t let the core players in the team find no position.

"Mancini is just the opposite. Manchester City has many stars. At that time, there were Ozil, Torres, etc., but these people all left one after another. Mancini did not stop because these are players who" do not meet "his tactics. ... "
"What is Mancini's tactics? At least until now we haven't seen that Manchester City's attack in the second half relies more on the individual performance of the frontcourt players than on the overall advancement and cooperation."
"Mancini and Wansheng, the two really have a lot of difference in coaching ability, no wonder Mancini is difficult to achieve success in Inter Milan, the same is true in Manchester City ... Mubarak wants to expect Mancini to bring to the team The second European championship trophy is really a fantasy. The only thing this Italian can do is to fight for the league title at most, but no matter how far they can compete against rival Manchester United, no one can be sure ... "
