I Want to Be the King of Football

Previously, when Chelsea coach Boas complained about the schedule, the media took Manchester City and made Boas speechless.

This is not only because Manchester City's results are better, it is very important that Manchester City's schedule can be called the devil among the devil.

Four games were played in twelve days, especially between the nineteenth and twentieth rounds, which were on December 31 and January 2, which means that there was only one day in between.

That's it?

This is just the beginning.

The FA Cup this weekend is on January 6th, while others are on January 7th or 8th.

Then why would Manchester City be one day earlier than others?

Because three days later they will usher in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals.

Then came the twenty-first round of the league, followed by the second round of the League Cup semi-final in midweek.

Is it a bit convoluted?

It's okay, just need to know that in this devil's schedule, Manchester City has to play two more games than other teams, then it's okay.

However, Chelsea certainly have opinions, because they have also reached the League Cup semi-finals and have to play two more games.

Then look at the opponent in the game.

In the twentieth round, Manchester City played against Liverpool at home.

In the third round of the FA Cup in midweek, Manchester City played Manchester United at home.

Yes, you read it right, it's Manchester United!

The **** guys in the FA didn't know how to draw the lottery, and they even drew the top two teams in the Premier League to the third round of the FA Cup. Doesn't this mean that they are playing the finals ahead of schedule?

But using the FA's statement, this also proves that the FA Cup draw is open, fair and just, and there is absolutely no tricky.

Look, even Manchester City and Manchester United are drawn in the third round. What's the trick?

At least unlike the Champions League, what seed teams should be divided!

In the two rounds of the League Cup semi-finals, the opponent is Liverpool, and Chelsea's opponent is the British crown's Cardiff.

The strength of the two teams is not at the same level at all, and they are not the same.

The twenty-first round was an away challenge to Wigan Athletic, and the opponent in the twenty-second round was Tottenham Hotspur.

If Manchester City can beat Manchester United in the third round to advance, then it will be the FA Cup again.

In other words, throughout January, Manchester City has struggled in every game.

Don't look at Wigan Athletic in the relegation zone, but their home games are not easy to play. Liverpool and Chelsea have suffered enough here and only won a draw, not to mention the fatigue of the long battle like Manchester City. expedition.

It can be said that Chelsea have no right to complain under this hellish schedule of Manchester City.

…

The end of 2011 has entered into the year 2012.

Manchester City ushered in Liverpool the next day of the New Year.

At the Etihad Stadium, both sides have carried out a very strong rotation.

There is no way. If you play two games in three days and do not rotate, the players' bodies simply can't bear it.

But even if it is a rotation, many players are seriously out of state.

After the opening, the first ten minutes of both sides played relatively dull, no one was able to create opportunities.

The absence of key players such as Bellamy and Gerrard has a great impact on Liverpool, while Manchester City is constantly running in.

In the fifteenth minute, Manchester City finally played a threatening attack.

The Soviet Union retreated to the left, cooperated with Hazard and Moutinho, failed to penetrate Liverpool's defense, and was forced to pass back to Busquets to reorganize.

Gareth Barry caught a glimpse of the timing and sent a long pass with his left foot, which was precisely behind the Liverpool defense.

Su Dong jumped forward at the fastest speed and formed a single-handed shot after stopping the ball.

After rushing into the penalty area, Su Dong put the defender Daniel Agge behind, facing the attacking goalkeeper Reina, a sudden pause to adjust, and then took out his foot to send the ball into Liverpool's goal.

Su Dong has too much experience in dealing with such single-handed shots.

He knows better than anyone else how to disrupt the goalkeeper's rhythm and confuse their judgment.

After scoring the lead, Manchester City slightly slowed down their offensive and rhythm.

In the forty-first minute, before the end of the first half, Manchester City once again created an opportunity. Su Dong broke through with the ball and was fouled by Scott at the front of the penalty area. The referee gave a yellow card and Manchester City got a frontcourt position. Ball chance.

Su Dong did his part. Facing the Liverpool wall where the tall guys gathered, he still used a wonderful curve kick to take a far corner, rubbed the corner of the upper right corner, and turned into Liverpool's goal to expand the score for Manchester City. , Two to zero.

After establishing an advantage, Manchester City slowed down a bit.

After changing sides in the second half, Guardiola replaced Soo Tung in 60 minutes on time, hoping that he can get enough rest and prepare for the weekend's FA Cup game against Manchester United.

The difference is that Su Dong did not stay on the bench after he left the field this time. Instead, he went straight into the player channel and returned to the locker room to rest and massage.

His personal trainer has already been waiting for him inside.

…

"The Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium are applauding Su Dong."

"This is one of the players with the most appearances and playing time for Manchester City this season. As a center, especially a high center, the attendance rate is really amazing."

"More importantly, every appearance of Su Dong can bring goals for Manchester City."

"It can be said that he is a key figure for Manchester City to move forward on all four fronts this season."

"Man City fans know all this very well, so they give Su Dong a very high affirmation, and we can also see that Su Dong is indeed very tired."

"But as the captain of Manchester City and the number one star of the team, he can't rest yet!"

The applause from the Etihad stands continued for a long time when Su Dong entered the dressing room.

...

...

The twentieth round of the league was very cold.

Manchester City finally defeated Liverpool 3-0. Su Dong scored twice and Moutinho created a penalty in the second half. Milner calmly took the penalty and sealed the victory for Manchester City.

This is one of the few warmths in the twelfth lunar month of winter.

The coldest is Boas.

The Portuguese marshal now has the kind of sorrow that even God will have to oppose him.

Before being pressured by the media and fans, the results were not satisfactory, and the management was not satisfied with him, so after a substantial rotation, he finally remembered Lampard next to the water fountain.

As a result, in the twentieth round, when Lampard finally started again, he performed well, not to mention, in the final stage of the game, using his own goals to help Chelsea beat Wolves 2-1 away.

What could hit Boas in the face more than this?

He has not tasted the joy of victory in five rounds, but he replaced Lampard in this game, Chelsea won immediately, and it was Lampard's lore.

What does this mean?

Boas can't imagine that his image in the Chelsea locker room, fans, and even the outside media has not improved because of this victory, but has fallen further, and it has fallen endlessly.

…

Compared to Chelsea, Arsenal's performance in this round can also be described as depressed.

Wenger has never brought in a strong central defender, and now he has finally paid the price.

Juru's second yellow card in the 78th minute was sent off by a red card, which allowed Arsenal to lose one man in the last ten minutes.

As a result, Fulham used these ten minutes to score two goals and reversed Arsenal two to one.

Losing three points and Chelsea won, causing the Gunners to be stepped out of the top four in the league and the Blues replaced them.

Then there are Liverpool and Newcastle.

Newcastle Magpies have exploded this round.

At home against Manchester United, Newcastle played very well and beat Manchester United 3-0.

Ferguson's team led by two goals in the previous round and was reversed by their opponents 3-2. This time they lost more thoroughly and lost to Newcastle directly away to Newcastle 3-0.

What? Is it embarrassing to lose three goals?

Isn't this all what you said?

In the last round, you said that I was humiliated by losing three goals after leading by two goals. Then I simply lost three goals without even scoring two goals in this game. Do you still say that I am ashamed?

Come on, what do you want me to do with Manchester United?

Can you give me a nice word?

Ferguson appeared very calm after the game, saying that this defeat was indeed disappointing. Newcastle's second goal completely killed Manchester United. Since then, the game has completely lost suspense.

As Manchester City defeated Liverpool 3-0, the current gap between the top two teams in the standings has widened to 15 points. Ferguson regretted that the Premier League champions this season basically belonged to Manchester City.

"Although I am very reluctant to say that, we have to accept that Manchester City's advantage in the Premier League is gradually turning into their bargaining chip to win the championship. They are the most powerful contenders for the championship. Other teams, including Manchester United, are difficult to influence. them."

But for Guardiola's team, Ferguson is not convinced.

"If you can give me a Sudong, I can get more winning streaks, and even I can win the world, but the problem is, I don't!" Ferguson is obviously also grieving about this.

He wants to introduce Sneijder from Inter Milan, but Manchester United's management has no such plans.

Someone has calculated that in the past five years, Manchester United spent a total of 160 million pounds on buying people in the transfer market, but the sellers earned 150 million pounds. That is to say, Manchester United’s last five years The net investment is only 10 million pounds.

Of course, the transfer income includes the huge income brought by Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer to Real Madrid, but it is also part of the overall strength of the club. Manchester United did not use this money. Signings.

Nowadays, Manchester United has earned more than 100 million pounds each season, but the loss has reached a staggering 80 million pounds. Behind this is the blood sucking from the Glazer family.

Ferguson said that by giving him a Sudong, he can win more in a row. This is definitely not an angry word, but he really feels that Manchester United's current investment can not support the scene of the rich.

Now that Ferguson is still there, he can still rely on his own ability to barely maintain the situation, but how long can he stay at his age?

When he can't hold it anymore and retreats, what will Manchester United be like?

Ferguson didn't dare to think about it, but he was really annoyed.

After coaching Manchester United for so many years, when has he been so embarrassed?

Especially when he will face Manchester City in the FA Cup next, what will he do with Manchester City?
