Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

Chapter 170

Chen Chen, who won the MVP trophy of the game, accepted an interview with the official media.

Chen Chen greeted everyone with a smile throughout the whole process.

One goal and two assists, who wouldn't be happy?

After the interview, Chen Chen returned to the locker room.

Before entering the locker room, Yaozi said that he would go to have fun after the game, but considering the key battle with Manchester United later, it was fine.

The day after the game between Manchester City and Bruges, the top five of this year's Golden Boy Award came out.

They are Pedri, Bellingham, Musiala, Wirtz and Gavi.

Many fans are saying that Chen Chen has secured a place in the national team, and Bellingham is still working hard for a chance to rotate.

As a result, one Golden Boy ranked 12th, and the other ranked in the top five!

In fact, this is also unavoidable, after all, Chen Chen did not have a record of top league appearances last season.

Of course, everyone doesn't know who will win the Golden Boy Award this year, but everyone will know next year!

Isn't this Chen Chen?

. . . . . .

There was not much time for Manchester City players to rest, and time quickly came to Saturday.

This was the earliest game of this round of the Premier League, which was held at 12:30 noon, which was 8:30 pm in China time.

In Manchester, the whole city was preparing for the upcoming game feast!

There were crowds of people outside Old Trafford, and the fans wearing red jerseys and blue jerseys were clearly divided!

The security forces of the Manchester police and security companies were doing their best to control the situation.

Fortunately, Manchester City and Manchester United were not in a state of life and death, and the two sides just cursed each other across the police and security walls.

If it were Everton and Liverpool, or Dortmund and Schalke 04, it would be interesting.

Today, tickets for the Manchester Derby are still hard to come by. In the second-hand trading market, the ticket price near the corner flag area, which was originally priced at 68 pounds, has risen to more than 368!

Nearly 6 times! This is really hard to bear!

However, even with such a high price, some people still bought it. Old Trafford, which can accommodate 76,000 people, is almost full.

On the big screen at Old Trafford, it is clearly written that the number of people present is "75,566".

You should know that the full number of seats at Old Trafford is only 76,212!

Some people may ask, what about the nearly 700 empty seats? Are no one sitting there?

Some of these nearly 700 seats are for security needs, such as separating Manchester United fans from Manchester City fans.

Others are because the ticket buyers did not come or did not want to come because of other things, such as many season ticket holders did not come.

These season ticket holders support Solskjaer, and they are dissatisfied with the management's reckless and ruthless unilateral termination of the contract with Solskjaer.

In the away team's locker room, Guardiola is making the final tactical adjustments.

Today Guardiola still chose to arrange a 433 formation.

However, Guardiola has a new idea for the center position.

That is to let B席 play as the center forward!

Good guy, Guardiola is going to push everyone to the center forward position to play a game!

In the team's roster, Ferran Torres is still absent from the game roster, and Laporte is suspended because of the red card in the last round of the league.

As for Mendy?

On the social platform, Benjamin Mendy posted a photo of himself watching Manchester City's game at home, and wrote: "Come on! Manchester City!"

Tearful, Mendy, who is deeply involved in the lawsuit, did not forget to support Manchester City!

After introducing the tactical arrangements, Guardiola looked up and looked around the entire locker room.

Everyone was looking at him, and everyone's eyes were full of desire for victory!

The game against Bruges allowed the Blue Moon to regain confidence and momentum, and all the rumors after losing to Crystal Palace disappeared!

"We can lose many times in the league, but not this time!"

"Old Trafford will definitely give us very fierce boos! Then let's shut up the opponent with a goal!"

"Of course, we can't underestimate the enemy, everyone cheer up! If someone doesn't perform well, I will replace him, is it clear?"

"We want to take three points today!"

Captain Fernandinho took over the conversation,

"Forget the previous victories and defeats, today will be a brand new battle!"

"Pay attention to the connection of defense, pay attention to the cooperation between the wing and the front line!"

"What we have to do is very simple, that is to overturn the opponent!"

"Come on! Manchester City!"

Everyone said in unison,

"Come on! Manchester City!"

After cheering up, Guardiola walked out of the locker room first, followed by the substitutes.

On the other side, Carrick was also doing the final morale mobilization.

In fact, there is nothing much to say. In the last league gameThe victory over Tottenham and the draw with Atalanta in the Champions League group stage gave them a great morale boost!

After returning to Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo swept away his previous slump and scored a goal and an assist in the match against Tottenham.

After that, when playing against Atalanta, Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice, one of which was the equalizer in the 90th minute of stoppage time!

This made many Manchester United fans and media people fall silent.

So were they really working together to get rid of Solskjaer before?

"Good evening, dear friends in front of the TV and live broadcast room!"

"Welcome to watch the focus battle of the 11th round of the 2021/22 Premier League brought to you by Migu Sports during prime time on Saturday!"

"Manchester City Derby! Manchester United vs. Manchester City!"

"I am today's commentator Zhan Jun!"

"Hello everyone, I am Zhang Lu!"

Zhan Jun picked up the card and continued,

"Winter gifts, gifts are endless! xxx!"

After the advertisement, Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu,

"Coach Zhang, which team do you think will win today?"

Zhang Lu said,

"Manchester City! There is no doubt! In the last round, Manchester United and Atlanta fought to the last minute, and the physical consumption was not small."

"And what about Manchester City? De Bruyne only played half the game, and Chen Chen also walked more in the second half."

"Although De Bruyne played only half the game, Chen Chen also walked more in the second half."

" Although he didn't help the team score, his state and technical level are still very good. We can look forward to De Bruyne's performance in this game!"

Zhan Jun nodded in agreement,

"Yes! Although Manchester United is playing at home now, they are under great pressure."

"But it should be noted that Manchester City's center forward Ferran Torres will continue to miss this game, and on Manchester United's side, Ronaldo has regained the feeling of being a golden-edged Ronaldo."

Zhan Jun paused for a moment, and then continued to analyze,

"On the front line, Manchester United is more dominant, but in the midfield and backcourt, Manchester United is completely at a disadvantage."

"First of all, Pogba was suspended for two games because of a suspected dangerous foul in the game against Tottenham. So not only this game, but also the next game against Watford, Pogba will not be able to play."

"Yeah." Coach Zhang acted as a supporting role.

"And when playing against Atalanta, Varane and Cavani were both injured. Manchester United lost two key players, so it's hard to say whether the one point they took from Atalanta was worth it."

"Okay! Let's stop talking nonsense and take a look at the starting lineups of both teams!"
