Vol 5 Chapter 176: Manchester City ’s ‘stable’

Manchester City ’s Stamford Bridge victory over Chelsea is indeed worthy of a special book, but the first round of the Premier League is not only a focus. Manchester United ’s game has also attracted countless people. Because of the first round, Manchester United performed very well. : 1 victory over 'Farmer' Fulham. o, x.
Manchester United's state is very brave. After the game, the media commented, "In the hot team that won the championship, Manchester United is very successful in team warm-up and personnel adjustment."
In the past, Manchester United was characterized by being good at the second half. It was the case when Manchester United and Arsenal ruled English football a few years ago. Manchester United always performed very well in the second half, and recently in the league with Arsenal. Get an advantage in competition.
However, due to the intervention of Derbyshire, Manchester City and Chelsea in the past two seasons, the Premier League is no longer as slow as the marathon. The 38-round endurance race has become a sprint-sprint race. Look at the points of Manchester City and Chelsea last season. As you know, there will be almost no chance in the final effort, so you must start the effort in the first round.
Obviously after two seasons of sinking, Manchester United is suffocating. They warmed up before the season and made full preparations in the Dutch Absterdam four-country game. The personal status adjustment and overall team coordination are the most in the current team. The good one, public opinion thinks even better than Manchester City and Chelsea.
This season's Manchester United have two outstanding highlights. One is that the veteran is in good shape and close to the best in professional form. For example, Giggs, he is the captain of Manchester United. Scholes's offensive planning in the midfield is very important. He has strong reading ability, wide vision and reasonable passing. Although the defense has some old problems, Manchester United with Scholes has greatly enhanced his offensive ability. It is important for Manchester United that Scholes recover from the eye disease, and the performance of the two veterans is close to the peak.
The second point is related to Rising Stars, after Van Ni has left. Manchester City has no internal spear-shield. Rooney and C-Ronaldo cooperate quite well. Both sides have wonderful transmissions and both have scoring contributions. The fans also give c-Ronaldo the greatest encouragement and support to remove his worries.
For the Portuguese, the biggest test is still away, to be sure that all away fans will cause a lot of interference to his play.
At home, there is no need to worry, Manchester United will cooperate in the next two stars.
Arsenal's situation is the most worrying of the winning teams, the first game. There was a problem with Wenger's tactical thinking. They put too much emphasis on short-pass cooperation and did not exert their power when they met the iron bucket attack.
Adebayor shared pressure with Henry, and there was not much problem with the striker.
However, there are a lot of hidden dangers in the back line. The left-back Hawet is not competent enough. The cooperation between central defenders Qiaolu and Toure has not been very good. It is not particularly ideal. In general, Arsenal's defense line is very worrying.
For several championship teams. Liverpool have the most abundant numbers, and Benitez is still debugging the best lineup, so the first round of the main lineup has changed. From the situation, the three players of Cengden, Fowler and Kronkamp are not in good condition. These three positions will continue to be adjusted.
The injuries of Risser and Carragher also add trouble to the team ’s solid back defense, but it cannot be said to be overly worried, because Benitez has a large number of players on the center and left backs that can be rotated, and the trouble will not be too much.
This is after the first round. The media's summary of the winning team.
Due to Manchester City's victory over Chelsea, there are some small differences in the media's comments, which can be seen from the adjustment of the betting company's odds. Among the teams most likely to win the championship, Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United are tied for the first place, Liverpool and Arsenal become the second, the chances of other teams are very slim.
...
According to the analysis of the situation of the Premier League by the media and people from all walks of life, Wan Sheng didn't care much. These were actually in his mind.
His judgment is that the most threatening opponent this season will be Manchester United. The direct reason is that the Premier League champion in memory this season is Manchester United.
This is enough.
Especially when the big score beat Chelsea, he found that this season's Chelsea is not even as good as last season, because they have internal problems, no matter how strong the team has internal problems, it is easy to be defeated, so the focus of this season is still the same city Rival enemy.
In addition, there are of course the Champions League events.
The Champions League group draw is still a few days away. Before that, Wansheng can lead the team to play in the league with peace of mind. Three days later, Manchester City ushered in the second round of the league. They played against Portsmouth at home.
Prior to this game, there were debates in the media about the outcome.
Although Manchester City won Chelsea by a big score on the road, in fact, they did not have the advantage of playing against Portsmouth, because last season Portsmouth and Manchester City played quite well, and Manchester City rarely lost in two games. One of them was a game against Portsmouth.
This is also what the Portsmouth fans and the media talk about.
Before the game, they made such a voice, "Manchester City are the defending champions of the Premier League, but we beat them", which makes them fighting spirit, "Even if they beat Chelsea in the big score on the road, they still want to win us easily!"
So the Manchester City media regarded this as a battle of vengeance.
However, the neutral media still reasonably believes that Manchester City has a greater chance of winning, because Manchester City is the defending champion and one of the three teams most likely to win this season. Manchester City is also in very good shape, and it is a home battle. Given the advantages, how many opportunities can Portsmouth have even if they have the advantage in mind?
The competition also proved this.
In this game, Manchester City took advantage of their home strength, followed the tactics of the last game against Chelsea, and used the constant and frequent cooperation of the midfielder to strongly impact the Portsmouth defense.
Faced with such a strong offense, Portsmouth didn't even have the power to fight back. After only ten minutes of the game, they seemed to give up the offense and retreat to their goal.
So the game was pretty good ... Of course, it was for Manchester City fans.
In the last game against Chelsea, Chelsea's performance was quite strong-hard, and its strength was not weaker than Manchester City. Manchester City's coordination advantage was actually difficult to play. Especially in the second half, after Chelsea switched to creating offside tactics to limit Manchester City's space, Manchester City The cooperation will not fight again.
This game is different. Portsmouth has no ability to limit Manchester City. There is a gap between their player capabilities and Manchester City players, and there is a huge gap in overall tactics.
Manchester City has an absolute advantage on the field. Players are playing more and more well, and at home, tens of thousands of Manchester City fans are cheering, and as a result Manchester City is getting better and better. Portsmouth has no chance at all, even if they get the ball. But at halftime.
But commendable is Portsmouth's defense.
They retired at halftime, a bunch of players stood in front of the door, but the defense was not chaotic, which caused a lot of trouble for Manchester City's attack. As a result, Manchester City did not score.
It wasn't until the game reached the fifty-sixth minute that Manchester City used a free kick to score.
Free kick was taken by Ivan Crewe.
A few years ago, Ivan Kruk began to focus on positioning ball training. Over the past few years, he has spent most of his time on the positioning ball. Up to now, Ivan Kruk ’s positioning ball evaluation has reached a high of 95 In addition to the attribute bonus of Wansheng ’s coaching skills, when Ivan Krue took a free kick in the official game, he even played the ability of nearly 100 evaluation ... This evaluation of the ability is absolutely terrifying of!
As long as Ivan Crewe is in a state and plays a free kick in his own position. He is very likely to shoot the ball directly into the goal!
Of course, no shot can be scored 100%, whether the goal can be returned to the player's temporary play, and the play of the opponent player and goalkeeper. But the threat that Ivan Krug can create is absolute. The threat of playing free kick in a position he is good at is not weaker than that of the famous David Beckham.
This is now Ivan Crewe!
Many people know that Ivan Crewe's free kick is good, but he hasn't been famous so far. One of the reasons is also related to ‘face’. In this star-face world, one looks ordinary. Players with ordinary skills, even if they perform well in a certain area, it is difficult to become famous directly.
But Wansheng can be sure that as long as Ivan Kruk simply behaves like this, he will definitely become more and more famous.
For example, now, almost all Manchester City fans are cheering for Ivan Crew, and live commentator Berbat is also praising Ivan Crew, "Ivan Crew ’s free kick just broke the goal! 25 Mi's position, a direct shot, the football turned over the wall and hung directly into the dead end! Portsmouth goalkeeper Westerwed had no way at all, he could barely watch the football fly in! "
"1: 0, Ivan Crewe helped Manchester City take the lead!"
"We can see that since coming to Manchester City in January, Ivan Crewe has become better and better!"
"..."
After Ivan Crewe scored, Portsmouth had no choice but to try to counterattack if he wanted to win, but it was obviously difficult to play much.
Although Portsmouth still got a good chance in the second half, they did not catch it. Instead, Manchester City used the pass to play the empty before the end of the game. Darren Bent, who came off the bench to find the opportunity, directly sent the ball into goal.
The score was also fixed at 2: 0.
At the post-match press conference, Wan Sheng talked about the game and praised Ivan Kruk greatly, "I was optimistic about him a few years ago. He has a strong ability in positioning the ball, just like the one in the game. The ball, his beautiful shot, also makes the opponent undefeated! "
"He is a genius in this respect! I believe he can score more goals!"
After that, Wan Sheng did n’t talk about the game again, because he thought there was nothing to say about the game. Portsmouth was just a relegation underdog. Even if they said before the game,
There is a mental advantage in playing Manchester City
, it could not be changed. The fact that they are weak.
Wan Sheng talked about the upcoming community-zone shield cup.
"This is the second time I have led a team to participate in the Community-District Shield Cup. Last time my opponent was Arsenal. I won. This time the opponent is Liverpool. I think I can still win!"
The last time was the season when Derbyshire was upgraded. In the previous season, Derbyshire won the FA Cup championship, so it played the Premier League champion Arsenal in the community-region shield cup competition. This time Manchester City is the league champion. Liverpool, the FA Cup champion this season.
"I know the schedule is a bit difficult, but we will not give up a decided champion." Wan Sheng showed his attitude.
Some media previously believed that Manchester City would not wholeheartedly compete for the club-zone shield because their first three rounds of the schedule were a headache. With three games separated by 7 days, Chelsea, Portsmouth and Arsenal are enough headaches. The Social-District Shield Cup will play Liverpool, which is not a friendly match.
However, Wan Sheng still values ​​the game because it is a rare championship.
Although the champion is a bit tasteless and doesn't have much to add to his coach's honor skills, the champion is the champion. One more championship is better than none. Seeing the champion of the hand, he won't let that annoying Spaniard.
In fact, the attitudes of the two teams are diametrically opposed to media speculation.
Wan Sheng values ​​the championship, but Benitez does not, because they are about to face a more important game-the derby against Everton, which is the most important for Liverpool, especially the community The Shield Cup still has to face Manchester City. If there is a big battle with Manchester City and they face Everton after a day, that's really dangerous.
So Benitez's attitude towards the Social-District Shield Cup is to follow suit.
It ’s best to win the championship, it does n’t matter if you do n’t, as long as the team tries to play as best as possible, so he sent a lot of new players in the game, Pennant and Bellamy. Everyone got a chance, and Paletta and Dior, who came back on loan, also started. But it is clear that such a lineup is completely equivalent to training the team. Benitez declared that he attaches great importance to the Social-District Shield Cup. But as soon as Wan Sheng saw the Liverpool roster, he knew what the Spaniard was thinking about.
Wan Sheng also took a long breath.
In the face of the temptation of the championship, the opponent does not fight, which is really good, of course, it is shameful to turn the boat in the yin-ditch-li at this time, he will never allow this to happen, so in the locker room before the game, he and all People talked about the importance of the game, but also emphasized that Liverpool should not be underestimated.
"They are very strong, especially the defense, and several new strikers are also excellent. I don't want to see any of you careless in the game, otherwise the next game, unfortunately, you can only watch on the bench. Others played. "
This is an
old
threat, but it works, and Manchester City ’s internal competition is still fierce, such as the striker, Darren Bent never wants to replace Anelka, and David Silva also has to face The competition against Joey Barton, Ozil, Ivan Crewe, etc., even iron's main force, center defender Dunn, but also Sun Jihai, Ricardo Costa and others were watching.
No one wants to be a substitute, all players who play will work hard.
So in this game, Manchester City beat Liverpool by a 2-1, although it was only 2: 1, it seemed dangerous, but in fact, Liverpool's goal appeared in the stoppage time before the end of the game, that is, Manchester City There is no pressure to win.
In this game, many people also saw the stability of Manchester City.
In terms of play ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Actually, Manchester City's offensive football is very aggressive, but when the game is played, their defense is very stable, the game is also very stable control, so when they have an advantage, just It will be very stable, and opponents will not be able to beat Manchester City without surprising performance.
This is stability.
Benitez also marveled at Manchester City's 'stableness'. At the post-match press conference, the Spaniard praised this point, "We lost the Community-District Shield Cup, but that's okay, we know better through the game The opponents. Manchester City played very well and they deserved the victory. I can hardly imagine that while maintaining a gorgeous offensive football, at the same time, they can play so stable. From the second half, we have no chance. They 'S pass did a great job. "
Wan Sheng said modestly, "We still have a lot of room for improvement in playing."
Then he talked about the championship, "Of course, the most important thing is that we got the championship, the Social-District Shield Cup, many people said it was tasteless, but they did n’t even qualify. We won the championship and it ’s worth celebrating Tomorrow, I will give the team a day off, their efforts have been rewarded, and they should be rewarded for relaxation. "(To be continued.)
