I Want to Be the King of Football

Manchester City is indeed making two-handed preparations this season. On the one hand, they are striving for the league to enter the European theater. On the other hand, they are intensifying their efforts in the cup, hoping to make a difference in the cup.

The League Cup reached the semi-finals, but encountered rivals Manchester United in the same city.

The two rounds of semi-finals to be held in February will be quite a test for Manchester City.

The league has always been difficult to pick up, and the cup has encountered strong opponents. It is not very likely that Manchester City will qualify for the European war.

For this, Soriano and Begiristan knew it well.

Mansour's face has also become ugly, because he has invested so much money to form such a team, but the results have not improved much, which has to be said to be a very devastating thing.

Guardiola’s Manchester City can be said to be completely overthrown and rebuilt. After Mark Hughes stepped down, Guardiola took office, from Mansour and Mubarak to Soriano and Begiristan. Support him, so he can purge Robinho like players he doesn't want as he wants, and he can also reject players like Tevez he doesn't want.

It can be said that he is drawing a blueprint of Manchester City from a blank sheet of paper.

From the current point of view, the blueprint drawn by Guardiola is very interesting. Standing at a certain strategic height, it is very surprising, because this Premier League team is playing a kind of pass-and-control game similar to Barcelona. France, and the style of the game is still very good, very high technical and tactical content, is definitely the most surprising team in the Premier League.

But after all, competitive sports still depends on performance to speak. If the performance is not good, it is useless to say anything.

Therefore, Guardiola is now very controversial.

Both the media and the fans felt that this guy was going to die and he should leave get out of class as soon as possible. He was purely a parallel head coach.

But in the eyes of many professionals, Guardiola's coaching is still worth discussing.

…

"To be honest, I was a little surprised." Mentioning Manchester City's results, Su Dong smiled bitterly.

"I originally thought that this season's Manchester City would be stable in the league, and the cup would be relatively crotch. As a result, I didn't expect that the League Cup would reach the semi-finals instead, but the league would be out of ten."

Su Dong made his judgment based on his understanding of Guardiola's coaching style.

The biggest feature of Guardiola’s Manchester City is stability, a steady pass and a lack of sharp bursts. Both Di Maria and Sanchez have strong personal abilities, but these two players have great limitations. They are more deputies, like wingmen, it is difficult to be alone, and their breakthroughs are more on the sidelines.

Looking closely at Manchester City's games this season, it is not difficult to find that Guardiola often asks Santa Cruz to pull to the ribs to catch up. He just wants to play the combination of opposing full-backs and central defenders, but the effect is not good. Santa Cruz is obviously not adapted to this style of play.

This kind of stable and lack of explosive points, logically speaking, should perform well in the league.

Because the league pays attention to protracted battles, relying on overall strength. Manchester City is absolutely not bad in this regard. The overall strength can definitely be ranked in the top six in the Premier League. On the contrary, it is more targeted, and the battle is resolved within 180 minutes. In the cup, Manchester City performed well, which really makes it difficult for Su Dong to understand.

Football sometimes is like this, it is difficult to have a fixed formula.

Soriano and Begiristan both understood Su Dong’s ideas, and immediately explained the reason to Mansour, and then smiled at Su Dong: “The main reason is that the style of the Premier League is different from other leagues. The rhythm here is too great. almost."

"Yeah, the pace is fast, the midfield pass and the ball are not connected properly. After a mistake, it is easy to be quickly counterattacked by the opponent. This becomes very life-threatening. Many times conceded or even lost the ball. appeared."

With offense instead of defense, in other words, Guardiola's Manchester City is using control instead of defense, there will be a problem.

That is, when you have a bad offense or a bad possession, the defense will become very hip.

At this time, it is particularly important whether there is a player with super personal ability in front of him.

Not to mention anything else, if Su Dong is in front of Manchester City, there is a very stable point in front of Manchester City that will not easily lose the ball. Even if the ball is intercepted and counterattacked, Su Dong is in front, and the opponent dare not press it.

Now, who ran into Su Dong and dared to make him one-on-one?

Even if it is a counterattack, shouldn't you leave two or even three players behind you?

Sometimes, football is this kind of fight game.

…

Soriano and Begiristan made a special trip to Abu Dhabi, hoping to persuade Sudong to join Manchester City.

The two are still full of confidence in Guardiola's coaching, because under the guidance of Guardiola, Manchester City is indeed undergoing earth-shaking changes. More importantly, it is difficult for Manchester City to find a more suitable one than Guardiola. , A head coach with a stronger technical and tactical level.

Mansour also promised to the face that he has no upper limit on his investment in Manchester City. He hopes to make Manchester City a business card and make this team the top giants in the Premier League and even European football.

"I know, it's not easy, and it needs the help of a superstar like you."

But even so, Su Dong still did not respond positively. He only said that he would consider it seriously and would study it with his team. He euphemistically said that many decisions he made now are beyond his control.

Mansour, Soriano and Begiristan also expressed their understanding of this, and hoped to get a positive answer from Sudong. Manchester City welcomes Sudong's arrival at any time.

Not only that, Mansour also revealed that he had discussed Pepe with Nellinger and hoped to see Su Dong and Pepe joining Manchester City by then. This will be a great thing for Manchester City.

…

Watching Su Dong leave, Mansour couldn't hide his loss.

From beginning to end, Su Dong did not clearly express any wishes, which was somewhat contrary to his previous expectations.

According to his original idea, shouldn't it be him who came forward in person, fisted, and promised to give him a sky-high annual salary, so that Su Dong was so moved that he agreed to transfer to Manchester City on the spot?

The plot seems not to follow his script!

Su Dong didn't play his cards according to the routine at all.

Soriano and Begiristan had long expected this to be the case.

In fact, neither of them agreed to meet Su Dong in Abu Dhabi. It was not the other thing, but the timing was not yet ripe.

But Mansour was a little too anxious, and wanted to lock in Sudong early, so as not to be taken first by other teams.

This is actually not difficult to understand.

It can only be said that Mansour is indeed "true love" for Su Dong.

"Actually, it's a good thing to say it. Although he did not agree, he did not refuse. This shows that he is not opposed to joining us at Manchester City. I guess what worries him is the results." Begeristan comforted.

Soriano nodded, "With the strength and status of the Soviet Union, we must at least enter the European theater to match him, and he should not only consider himself, but also the interests of sponsors. A superstar at the level, to be honest, which team to transfer to is really as he said, sometimes it is involuntary."

No one knows how many sponsorship contracts Su Dong has tied up, but Soriano knows a little bit more clearly.

The more sponsorship, the more income, which is a good thing, but proportionally, the greater the responsibility.

To give a simple example, the sponsor signed Su Dong because he can play in the Champions League.

Well, if Su Dong moves to Manchester City, it turns out that Manchester City can't play in the UEFA Champions League or even the Europa League. What would Su Dong's current sponsors think? Under the loss of interests, will he sue Su Dong angrily for compensation?

At this time, Su Dong needs more time to consider and prepare.

At least get the sponsor.

Mansour actually doesn't know much about football, and he doesn't know much about superstars like Su Dong. Hearing Soriano and Begiristan's analysis, he suddenly felt that he really should think carefully.

More importantly, Su Dong is the athlete with the highest commercial value in the world.

Note that it is not only football players, but the highest commercial value among all players.

The reason why Manchester City selected Su Dong, Soriano decided that Su Dong's joining can bring Manchester City an opportunity to transform, because of this, he has amazing commercial value that other superstars can't match.

Not to mention anything else, it is not difficult to see the value of Su Dong by looking at Bayern's rapid revenue growth in recent years.

…

Su Dong left Mansour’s luxurious private room and took the elevator back to Bayern’s floor. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

He has received many promises from Mendes before, including annual salary, bonuses, and various benefits and conditions. It can be said that Manchester City's sincerity is still very high.

From Mansour’s conversation tonight, Su Dong can also appreciate the sincerity of Manchester City to him.

He is also not disgusted with Manchester City, neither does many people have the bad impression of so-called nouveau riche, nor does he look down on Manchester City, because he knows that as long as Manchester City continues to invest, as long as Guardiola plays normally, I believe it will not take long. Will definitely become a competitive strong team in the Premier League.

To some extent, Guardiola's tactical play is still very attractive to Su Dong.

However, Mendes was right. Su Dong had the initiative in this matter, and he didn't need to make a decision in such a hurry.

Now for Su Dong, the most important thing is to first guarantee the results at Bayern.

He is eager to win the Champions League three consecutive championships, complete the tasks given by the Road to Kings system, upgrade as soon as possible, and open up a whole new world. Everything has to wait until the completion of this season.

In order to complete this task, Su Dong has been waiting for five years, and the realization is imminent. He does not want to be distracted at this time and think too much about other things.

Only after the season is over, Su Dong will make a decision regardless of whether the task is finally completed.

…

When Su Dong returned to the hotel room, he found that Marcelo and Tony Cross were also there in addition to Pepe, who was in the same room.

Needless to say, Marcelo, Tony Cross has a very good relationship with Su Dong, especially recently, he has given Su Dong an assist hat-trick, and his performance is also remarkable.

When seeing Tony Cross, Su Dong suddenly remembered one thing.
