Chapter 692 The turning point of city night

Without Zhuo Yang, the 2017-18 season should be the 'Year of Salah' in the Premier League.

Sa is Samu's Sa, La is Labo's La, and He is Hermione's He, so this guy is ruthless, ghostly and coquettish this year, and his missiles and bombs can also light up magic.

In the 50th minute of the second half, Detu gave a direct pass from the center. Mane, who changed positions and advanced forward, was blocked by Laporte and Otamendi.

Originally, Mane didn't have a good chance, but no one expected that Otta, who has always been stocky, suddenly had trouble at his feet during the not fierce physical confrontation, and fell from in front of Mane to behind Mane in a very high-tech way.

Horta, a dog-eat-dog who is full of escaping self-esteem, not only allowed Mane to get the ball into the penalty area smoothly, but also made his comrade Laporte stagger.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Ederson was highly focused and never had the habit of waiting at the door. As soon as Mane broke out of the shabby encirclement, he encountered Ederson who was attacking again. He forced a push and failed to avoid his long arm that fell to the ground. The football was pulled on Mane's foot and collapsed to the side.

Why do you think Salah is so thief?

He did not pull away early to wait for a response, but kept following Mane, as if smelling his scent before moving forward. The football was out of control, and Salah suddenly showed his true form, and with a sideways pass, he dodges Ederson who made two consecutive dives.

Stones let his huge body fly at the front post, but Salah's light shot from a small angle made his bravery in vain.

The football fell into the far side net, 1:1.

In the process of scoring this goal, Mane was just a troublemaker, while Salah's choice of running position, dribbling or final shooting technique all showed his characteristics of "Sa, La and Her". You can't mess with people named Mohammed.

The love-hate relationship in the first half was all in vain, as Liverpool tied the away goals. If Manchester City wants to survive, they must score at least three more goals in the remaining forty minutes. If you want to live, get four.

Guardiola's arrangement in the midfield lounge, using relatively cautious fast ball transfers in the first 15 minutes of the second half, formed a false siege on Liverpool. When the game was no longer full of energy, Manchester City stripped off and fucked him, could it be possible? That's him.

But Salah's goal directly turned Guardiola's table off. There was at least a three-goal gap, so what else would he need?

The head coach was unable to direct on the spot, and the total score became 2:5 again. Manchester City is experiencing a severe beating from society.

Chief assistant coach Domenech Torrent has no idea whether or how to make adjustments at this time. Among the plans explained by Guardiola, the only plan is to replace Kyle Walker as a wing-back after the total score is equalized to smooth both offense and defense. , there is no contingency plan for what to do after Liverpool scores first.

It's not that Guardiola forgot, it's because he didn't know that that situation required inspiration on the fly, rather than prepared regulations in advance. But Torrent had no inspiration at this time, and neither did Guardiola in the stands.

Zhuo Yang has inspiration. He can compose a humorous song "An April Night Counters the River" at this time, but it has nothing to do with football.

He just passed Chamberlain and Doom after the restart, and then carried his old brother Detu to hit a long shot, forcing Karius to make the ultimate save.

Although he didn't score, it could cheer up people's spirits and stabilize the mood of his teammates a little bit.

The football wizard doesn't really know how to do much, just these things.

But tonight is not Manchester City's night, the blows come one after another, and there is no end.

In the 53rd minute, Feiniao dribbled the ball forward and prepared to cause trouble, but Tu Ye and Firmino blocked him from the front and back. Feiniao opened his hips widely and dropped himself to the ground in a wild and heroic manner.

I didn’t hold my balls, but there was a dull pain in my groin. It wasn’t that I couldn’t persevere, but two months before the World Cup started, no one dared to take risks.

Fei Niao gathered his emotions, made his expression look even worse, and made a substitution gesture to the court.

Torrent panicked: Who the hell should I replace?

Feiniao, like Zhuoyang, is irreplaceable in the Manchester City team. Of course, life is still the same without anyone. Before Feiniao and Zhuoyang were born, the Premier League and Champions League already existed.

But in major battles, if Manchester City wants to make a difference, they are indeed indispensable. It's not that Feiniao is as good as Zhuoyang, but that Manchester City simply doesn't have spare tires of his type in reserve.

Feiniao's ability to squat in the midfielder is not very outstanding, but in the frontcourt of Manchester City, which is generally strong in offense and weak in defense, Feiniao's prediction when transitioning between offense and defense, his ability to cover both sides near the midline, and his ability from behind Taking the ball to advance awareness is very important to Manchester City's high-pressing tactics and overall passing and control system.

It can be understood that Feiniao may not be the best defensive midfielder, but he is the most suitable defensive midfielder for Manchester City.

If Guardiola encounters Fernando missing midway, he will change his play style and play a beast-waisted man who is purely squatting, and then change his tactics to a counterattack that focuses on the wing.

But not today. Manchester City now needs to attack in all directions. The counterattack with crutches will make Uncle Zha laugh until he makes a pot of tea and drinks it slowly on the sidelines.

Torrent quickly went to look at Guardiola in the stands, hoping to get the imperial edict.

Lao Gua is also in trouble. Without Yaya Toure, should Kompany play a cameo role at this moment, or should he simply go to Walker, add a wing-back, and let Gundogan go to the defensive midfielder and let fate happen.

Anyway, it is impossible to let Zhuoyang go back to the defensive midfielder. Only people like Mourinho can do it. Technically Zhuoyang has no problem playing as a defensive midfielder, but from the perspective of Manchester City's team strategy, Klopp will feel more at ease making the second pot of tea.

Old people just think too much! Zhuo Yang said nothing nonsense, and Yue Zu made the decision for Lao Gua and Torrent.

After briefly caring about Fei Niiao, Zhuo Yang ran to the sidelines and shouted: "Matthew——, come on!"

Yes, as long as someone is willing to make the decision. Trent quickly turned his head to look for someone, only to find that Debich had rushed to the sideline like a rabbit. Assistant coach Arteta was also unambiguous and immediately went to the referee's table with the form.

It's not that Guardiola hasn't considered Debich. Debich has been used to replace Fernando before, but the two men's types are really different.

Debich was born as a full-back, and was developed into a midfielder by Uncle Zha. In the post-Zhuoyang era, he became the main defensive midfielder and core midfielder of Madibao.

But Debich is a Ram-type defensive midfielder who is good at individual coverage and pursuit. He is also commonly known as a man-marking midfielder. His coverage ability is average.

Using Debich as a defensive midfielder, more emphasis is placed on his distribution of the ball to both sides when switching from defense to offense. He has a very good grasp of offensive timing. But when he plays as a defensive midfielder, he must be accompanied by a teammate with strong sweeping ability, such as Mad Dog Rand or brother-in-law Preuss, otherwise he will easily be beaten out of touch by powerful opponents.

Therefore, Debich plays more of a right back in the French team, so Lahm's reputation as a defensive midfielder comes from before Guardiola took charge of Bayern. Here in Lao Gua, both Ram and Debich have to return to the wing.

Debich didn't know what to do when he came up, or what position to play, but the old man called him, so it didn't matter whether he knew or not.

Zhuoyang didn't know whether Debich's technical and tactical characteristics were in line with the current situation. He was not a football coach, so he didn't need to think so much. He knew that when he needed to fight hard, Debich was the most trustworthy person for him.

It’s not Jesus’ goal, it’s not handball, it’s not a misjudgment of offside, it’s not Guardiola’s red, it’s not Salah’s goal, it’s not that Fernandes left the field injured, it’s Debich’s appearance that becomes the battle at the City Stadium. The real turning point.
