In his post-match press conference for the first leg of the Champions League, David Moyes used Manchester City as an example to attract Pellegrini firepower.

The two clubs will be competing for the Carabao Cup at Wembley in five days, and even if he doesn’t fire, sooner or later the “noisy neighbour” will fire.

As bitter rivals in the same city, neither club is polite.

Say what the other person least wants to hear, do what the other person least wants to see, and beat the other person in the game.

If this series of operations can be completed, fans will remember the good of the manager this year.

It just so happened that Pellegrini also urgently needed to divert the attention of the media.

In the first leg of the just-concluded Champions League knockout round.

Four Premier League teams have achieved an embarrassing result of two draws and two defeats.

Manchester City lost 2-0 at home to Barca, Messi dominated the Etihad Stadium, and City were basically unable to fight back.

Arsenal lost 2-0 at home to Bayern Munich and Arsene Wenger’s side once again experienced the fear of domination.

If nothing else, the Champions League journey of these two teams this season has largely come to an end.

Chelsea drew 1-1 with Galatasaray at the so-called “hell” telecom stadium, and Mourinho was not too harshly criticized.

Because back at Stamford Bridge, the Blues are likely to win.

Manchester United conceded three goals in a row in the first half and were almost hammered by second-tier Olympiacos.

Even if they tied the score before the end of the game, the English media still did not buy it.

This has greatly dissatisfied English fans, who have always considered the Premier League to be the first league in Europe, and the English media has been criticized.

Pellegrini also needs to divert media attention with the next game.

It just so happened that Moyes said in his post-match press conference that the players who went to Manchester City were there to make money.

Pellegrini climbed the pole and walked up, diverting from Moyes’ speech in an interview with the media.

“David Moyes said the best player transfer to Manchester United, I think that’s. We won the first time the two teams met in the league and United couldn’t fight back. ”

“I think Manchester United were successful because their previous manager ran a successful system. That system allows players to bring out the most they can. ”

“If you talk about individual ability, Manchester United’s defence can’t even prevent an Arsenal Academy player on loan. Moyes has no experience coaching at the big clubs, and his words have little reference. ”

‘In the Carabao Cup final a few days from now, City will still have an overwhelming advantage in attack and we can beat them.

“Then you can see what his so-called best players are.”

“In my opinion, there are only four or five first-class players in the United squad and that’s it.”

Pellegrini responded and kicked off the Manchester derby.

The two of you said a word, and quickly diverted the attention of the media.

The English media are not in a hurry to talk about the Champions League for the time being, anyway, there is still a second leg of the game, and it is not too late to open up and scold.

The battle between Manchester’s two heroes is not lacking in highlights every time.

Since the Etihad consortium joined Manchester City, this middle and lower reaches of the Premier League team has been like getting a krypton gold system, using tap gold dollars to smash a Premier League first-class team.

But over the years, Manchester City has actually been quite unpopular.

Apart from their own fans, City’s brainless way of throwing money has not won much goodwill.

In the 2008-2009 season, after joining Manchester City, Etihad brought Robinho from Real Madrid at a price that broke the record for a Premier League transfer fee at the time, and bought several second-tier players at any cost.

At the end of the season, Manchester City were only 10th in the Premier League, and the whole of England was mocking the golden owner for being stupid and rich.

But after the start of the 2009-2010 season, Manchester City bought Villa captain Barry, Newcastle main goalkeeper Giving, Blackburn forward Santa Cruz, Everton defensive stalwart Lescott and a number of other quality players for more than 100 million pounds, and the club even planned to use 100 million pounds to bring in Messi.

The way they threw money at disrupting the transfer market caused resentment across Europe because they treated players too much.

Some players who can only be considered okay suddenly ranked in the top ten of the Premier League after coming to Manchester City, completely disrupting the entire Premier League salary system.

At that time, Moyes did not intend to sell Lescot, and as a result, the dude was passive in the first round of the Premier League, basically did not defend, and Everton were directly beaten.

This forced Moyes to sell him to Manchester City.

At this time, real stars will not come to Manchester City.

This local club does give a lot, but reputation is also important.

Manchester City are just fifth in the league this season and have not even qualified for the Champions League.

But money has magic with Yaya. Toure, David. Silva, Krarov, Balotelli, Milner and Dzeko were joined by a group of more quality players as City entered the Champions League and won the FA Cup.

In the 11-12 season, Manchester City won all six rounds of the league and lifted the league trophy.

The magic of the golden yuan took effect three and a half years later.

However, Manchester City were not popular throughout Europe, and they were all placed in the group of death for the first two seasons of the Champions League, and returned from the group stage.

This season, UEFA carefully selected Barça in the first round of the knockout round.

Moyes held on to the events of the year in the first round of the mouth cannon fight.

‘In my opinion, Manchester City’s achievements now are nothing more than castles in the air, they have spent money to bring in a lot of good players and won the Premier League, but this is not normal.

‘When I was in charge of Everton, they used high incomes as bait to encourage players to break with their old clubs, which was gangsterism.

“Obviously, Manchester United will lift the League Cup, Manchester City can’t handle Messi, and they can’t handle Sun Yu.”

So, the next day, the English media gave such a report.

“Moyes thinks Sun Yu has reached the height of Messi! 》。

This news almost stunned Sun Yu.

What the?

Lao Tzu reached the height of Messi?

This is not forcibly recruiting yourself!

Without thinking, Sun Yu can also guess that these media are taken out of context.

Sun Yu went to Moyes, but the Manchester United manager was also crying and laughing.

“Sun Yu, you know, it’s impossible for me to say these stupid things!”

“Since they wrote so, if we take the initiative to clarify, they will say that we are afraid!”

“When they ask this question in the next interview, I will make it clear, this is the English media, you can’t prevent it!”

Sun Yu could only shake his head helplessly: “Well, it seems that in order to be worthy of this sentence, I still have to find a way to score a few more goals.” ”

Moyes smiled and patted Sun Yu’s shoulder: “Don’t be too stressed, the media only has three days in their memory, and they will soon go back to other places to make news.” ”

What the two people didn’t expect was that in distant Barcelona.

The English media blocked the way of a car.

The windows rolled down.

Messi poked his head out helplessly.

“Mr. Messi, yesterday Manchester United manager Mr. Moyes said that Sun Yu in the team is in the same level as you, what do you think?”

Looking at Messi, who had a question mark, the reporter showed a sly smile.
