I Want to Be the King of Football

Jerome Boateng moved to Bayern Munich after all, and the transfer fee was 15 million euros.

The Bundesliga giants were eventually forced to agree to Manchester City’s request and paid out the transfer fee, but when they turned around, Bayern chairman Rummenigge, who is also chairman of the UEFA Club Association, said in an interview that he questioned Manchester City’s sponsors. .

It is mainly for the sponsorship of Manchester City by several companies including Etihad Airways, which is the source of funds for Manchester City's large-scale signings.

Rummenigge believes that Manchester City’s sponsorship is to circumvent UEFA’s fiscal fair play policy. He even said, “Man City should be clear that if they want to play tricks, we will not allow them to participate in the Champions League.”

This is not only because of Jerome Boateng’s transfer, Manchester City’s reluctance to make concessions on the transfer fee, but more importantly because the traditional giants have already felt the threat of Manchester City in the introduction of stars.

For example, the transfer of Hazard this time, this is a baby bump that all European giants coveted and went to Manchester City.

Don't talk about Bayern, just talk about other giants, who can stand it?

Soriano, the general manager of Manchester City, came forward to clarify, saying that Manchester City’s sponsors have no problems, and UEFA’s investigation is always welcome. Competitive team, "Our goal is to make Manchester City a top giant."

Jerome Boateng did not go with the team to the United States, so his transfer in Europe and the dispute between Rummenigge and Soriano did not affect the Manchester City players who were training in the United States.

All the players have lived a simple and boring training life, except for eating, drinking, sleeping, and training.

Su Dong still spares a little time every day to accompany Courtois to practice.

At first, the Manchester City players were still a little surprised, and gradually they got used to it.

Wen Suai and Su Dong’s additional training did not exclude others. Joe Hart and Shay can participate at any time if they want to participate. Therefore, everyone did not say much, and they would not think that they would give Courtois a small focus. What will be the problem.

A week after the team arrived in the United States, at the San Francisco at&t stadium, Manchester City ushered in the first warm-up match.

The opponent is the Mexican American team.

Although the lineup has changed, it is mainly based on the team's passing and control tactics.

The players also performed very hard. After all, they can see that this game is a test for them.

After the opening, Manchester City controlled the situation, and in the sixth and twelfth minutes, Dzeko nearly scored twice.

In the 16th minute, Douglas Costa made a breakthrough on the right, giving Dzeko a chance to kick in the penalty area. After being saved by the goalkeeper, Gareth Barry made a supplementary shot, one to zero. .

Then in the 27th minute, there was another pass from Dzeko, and Douglas Costa made another victory for Manchester City.

After changing sides in the second half, Manchester City replaced a lot of players, but in the 72nd minute, Adam Johnson and Tony Cross made a cooperation, broke into the penalty area and scored, extending the score for Manchester City, 3-0. !

In the end, with the goals of Gareth Barry, Douglas Costa and Adam Johnson, Manchester City defeated the Mexican American team 3-0 and won the first victory of the warm-up match.

Three days later, Manchester City left the training camp in Los Angeles, and went north to Vancouver, Canada to participate in the second warm-up match.

This time the opponent is the Vancouver White Caps.

Due to the pre-season physical reserve training, every player is in a low state. Coupled with days of fighting and long journeys to the north, more importantly, the weather in Vancouver has been heavy rainstorms for days, resulting in the venue. It was so muddy that even the game was almost cancelled.

So in the game, although Manchester City had the advantage, they lost the ball first.

But in the 39th minute, Aguero used a single push from the outside of the penalty area to tie the score for Manchester City.

After changing sides in the second half, Sanchez reversed the opponent for Manchester City in the 68th minute.

In the 84th minute, Di Maria used a long shot to penetrate the opponent's goal.

In addition, in stoppage time, Di Maria made another move and finally locked the score at four to one.

Manchester City successfully reversed the Vancouver Whitecaps in the away game and won two consecutive warm-up matches.

However, for the game process, whether it is the coach or the players, they are basically dissatisfied.

...

...

After returning to Los Angeles from Vancouver, Manchester City continued to start training.

This period of time is mainly focused on recovery and adjustment, as well as the team's technical and tactical exercises.

But what is interesting is that in the closed training on weekdays, Guardiola will practice the three-four-three tactics, but in the external game, he basically does not use it. Harvey Martinez is used by the central defender, which causes problems. Minor controversy, but basically four-back tactics.

This is also a way for Guardiola to deal with the outside world, he wants to save the three-four-three to the end, as a killer.

After another week of training in Los Angeles, Manchester City also ushered in the last warm-up match in North America.

Vs. Los Angeles Galaxy at Home Depot Center.

This is actually the most watched game of Manchester City's three North American warm-up matches, because Los Angeles Galaxy owns Beckham, and Manchester City also promised to start Su Dong.

This is also the first appearance of Su Dong in the three challenges.

Only 20 minutes into the game, Su Dong cheated the opponent's center back in the penalty area and scored the goal, setting the first record for Manchester City.

In the twenty-ninth minute, David Silva's through kick, Su Dong then inserted in the penalty spot to get a single chance, pushed again and scored two to zero.

During the intermission, Su Dong and Beckham were both replaced.

Later, the Los Angeles Galaxy pulled back a goal and Juninho also showed off his free kick skills, but hit the post.

And Manchester City also scored a goal by Dzeko in the second half.

In the end, Manchester City narrowly beat the Los Angeles Galaxy 3-1, winning the North American warm-up match three-game winning streak.

…

Su Dong got together with Beckham and Junior Juninho after the game.

Beckham and Junior Juninho are both free kick masters, and Su Dong's free kick attainments are also very high, but unfortunately, in the game, Su Dong and Beckham did not have the opportunity to show, and Junior Junior Neo's free kick hit the post.

The topic of the three is more off the court. For example, Beckham recently gave birth to a daughter, and he has been working hard to return to the European League. It can be seen that he still misses the days of playing in the European League.

The major leagues in the United States are indeed suitable for retirement, but Beckham is bent on returning to the mainstream European league.

Su Dong has never dared to ask him whether he would regret his decision to move to the United States after he left Real Madrid?

…

After Manchester City played the World Football Challenge, several other teams have also been fighting one after another.

Among the twelve teams participating in the ranking, only Manchester City, Real Madrid and Manchester United have won all three games.

In the end, the three teams scored the same points, but with a record of ten goals and two conceded, with an eight goal difference, Manchester City surpassed Real Madrid’s seven and Manchester United’s six, winning by a narrow margin. Under the championship.

This is also a good start for the new season.

After playing the Los Angeles Galaxy, Manchester City left the training camp in Los Angeles, USA and set off for Dublin, Ireland.

In Dublin, Manchester City immediately ushered in the Irish All-Star team after a slight adjustment.

This is an invitational tournament for the Irish Super Cup.

This team is composed of star players in the Irish League. The strength is actually very average, and the cooperation is very strange. After all, many of them do not play in the same team.

Manchester City also did not try their best, still putting Su Dong on the bench, allowing other players to play one after another.

In the end, Manchester City relied on Gareth Barry's volley, Adam Johnson scored twice, defeated the Irish star team 3-0, won the warm-up game four consecutive victories.

…

Only the other day, UU read www.uukanshu. com Manchester City once again ushered in the second game of the second day of the Irish Super Cup, against Inter Milan.

In this two-day high-intensity competition, no one will do their best, and more will focus on rotating and inspecting players.

Compared with the previous day, Manchester City replaced seven starters and goalkeeper Courtois also started.

The only constant is that Su Dong still did not play, which disappointed all the Irish fans who came here.

After all, many people hope to see Su Dong's game up close at home.

In the end, with Aguero's goal in the first half and Dzeko's score in the second half, Manchester City once again defeated Inter Milan 3-0.

Inter Milan did not try their best, and the state is not particularly good.

...

...

After the warm-up match in Dublin, the Manchester City team returned to Manchester.

The whole team began to prepare for the Community Shield game against Manchester United, which is the outpost of the new season.

Manchester City have only won three Community Shields in history, the most recent one was thirty years ago.

Su Dong took a leave of absence from the coaching staff, took the time to go to Amsterdam, and was invited to participate in Van der Sar’s farewell match.

He was accompanied by the young Belgian goalkeeper Courtois, which was allowed by Guardiola and Vinsue.

Courtois is also full of expectations for this trip to Amsterdam.

Van der Sar is his idol, and being able to participate in his farewell event has a special meaning for him.

Of course, he just followed Su Dong to participate, there is no way to really end the game, after all, he is not enough to participate in the world star team, Van der Sar did not invite him.

Being able to be there this time was purely because of Su Dong's light.
