"Boss, something bad happened!"
Early Friday morning.
While Lao Ke was enjoying his first cup of coffee comfortably in the morning, Phyllis opened the door in a hurry and barged in.
"What's the matter, so anxious?"
Lao Ke knew that Phyllis was a very stable person.
For Phyllis to be so anxious, something big must have happened to the team.
By the way, Su Bai came back one day later than the team.
It hasn't been reported yet, could it be...
When he thought of this, Lao Ke couldn't hold the coffee cup steady for a while.
He quickly stood up, a cold sweat broke out on his head unconsciously.
"What's wrong? Is it Su? What's wrong with Su?"
"Boss, it's not Sue! It's Kompany. That guy was injured when he was just warming up. He strained his thigh muscle. After the team doctor's examination, he is estimated to be out for at least four weeks."
"Oh! Not bad! Not bad!"
As soon as these words came out, Phyllis immediately looked contemptuous.
By the way, although everyone knows that Lao Ke prefers Su Bai to the point of paranoia.
However, you can't be partial to this extent.
"Boss, you haven't understood yet. In the league the day after tomorrow, we don't have anyone at the center back position."
"Wait! Isn't there Boyata at the guard position?"
Belgian center back Boyata, born in 1990, is tall and flexible. Last season, he performed well when Kompany was injured as a substitute.
Therefore, when he thought of Kompany being injured, Lao Ke immediately thought of asking Boyata to put out the fire.
"Boss, that's the problem, that Boyata guy..."
"hiss!
! "
Before Phyllis finished speaking, Lao Ke suddenly remembered.
Boyatana was injured when he participated in the national team's friendly match not long ago.
Now!
Lao Ke finally understood why Phyllis was so anxious.
To be honest, Manchester City's back line has been so stable so far this season because Demichelis and Kompany were lucky enough not to be injured.
During the previous winter break, Lao Ke searched for two central defenders in the transfer market to fill the depth of the bench.
But to be honest, the two guys I bought are really lacking in ability.
So after training for a period of time, Lao Ke could only send the two newcomers to the reserve team to report.
After being thrown to the reserve team, Lao Ke never asked about it.
"Go ahead, call Candia back!"
"Okay, boss, this is all we can do now!"
After hearing Lao Ke's arrangement, Phyllis hurried out and went to the reserve team.
Lao Ke, on the other hand, collapsed directly on the back of his leather chair with a headache on his face.
Lao Ke understands this.
Next, Manchester City's good days are coming to an end.
I guess Kompany is not the first!
.............
On the training ground.
Su Bai didn't jog until half past nine in the morning and stood on the sidelines.
It's not that Su Bai is playing a big role.
Mainly because last night, after returning to China, Liu Fei'er suffered from insomnia due to jet lag.
Liu Fei'er has insomnia, how can she let Su Bai sleep comfortably?
So, the two of them just watched each other's videos all night long.
By the time Liu Feier fell asleep, it was already 4:30 in the morning in Manchester.
Su Bai, who had been feeling sleepy for a long time, quickly turned off the light and squinted for a while.
I wanted to get up at half past seven.
But when I woke up it was already nine fifteen.
Not caring about brushing his teeth and washing his face, Su Bai rushed to the club in a hurry.
"Go and get twenty laps!"
really!
Lao Ke is still the same Lao Ke.
He didn't let Su Bai go just because he was a member of his family.
Looking at Su Bai's deflated look.
Aguero in the team naturally couldn't help laughing.
However, Lao Gui didn't know that Lao Ke was still angry because of the problem on the back line.
When I heard it, someone actually dared to laugh.
He immediately turned his head!
"Sergio, you go too, twenty-one!"
"Ha ha!"
This time, Su Bai couldn't hold back his laughter.
Lao Gui pouted and walked out of the team helplessly, glared at Su Bai, and started running in circles with Su Bai.
Su Bai and Lao Gui went to the penalty circle!
The rest of the population didn't fare so well either.
Lao Ke directly separated the two teams.
The focus began to explain Manchester City's tactical layout to newcomer Candia.
Unfortunately.
Candia, who has played in the reserve team for so long, is working hard to integrate into the team.
But it is still difficult for him to form a tacit understanding with Demichelis!
Seeing that the A team's back line had almost turned into a sieve.
Lao Ke's brows were almost squeezed together.
At this moment, Lao Ke finally remembered the time when he was in the early days of Dortmund, when it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw!
............
Sunday, April 19, 2015!
On this day off in Manchester which has turned blue.
Starting at five o'clock in the afternoon, countless Manchester City fans took to the streets, put on Manchester City's blue jerseys, and flocked to Intihad Square.
Because of Su Bai's arrival.
Manchester has now become the best destination for Chinese tourism.
After seeing the terrifying consumption power of the Chinese.
The Mayor of Manchester is very aware of current affairs and has given the Chinese a very special preferential policy.
As long as the Chinese in downtown Manchester need police services at any time, the Manchester Police Department will come to deal with the Chinese at the first time.
The British don’t do it because they admire Chinese culture or anything, they just want to give all Chinese tourists who come to Manchester a sense of security.
In Manchester!
As long as you come to spend money, the whole city of Manchester will do its best to ensure the personal safety of the father.
The root cause of everything is nothing more than money.
Under such preferential policies and safe market environment.
The number of Chinese tourists pouring into Manchester every day is growing exponentially.
This growth has certainly caused dissatisfaction among many other foreign tourists as well as Manchester locals.
After all, due to the large number of Chinese tourists and their amazing spending power, all prices in Manchester have more than doubled this year.
It's like a hotel.
The price of a hotel that originally only cost about 100 euros has now increased to a full 300 euros.
And this kind of hotel is still in short supply.
"Stinky tofu!"
"Stinky tofu!"
"stinky tofu!"
"yeyeye! very nice!"
"There are original ones that smell bad, there are also mustard-flavored ones, and yes, there are also herring-flavored ones! There are also tomato-flavored ones!"
On Intihad Square.
A young Manchester native with dyed yellow hair wrote several billboards in Chinese and hawked them there.
Although this guy's stinky tofu is completely random, it doesn't affect the fact that there is a queue of more than ten meters in front of his stall.
In the square, there are not only stinky tofu sellers.
There are also some newly emerging live broadcast celebrities selling other traditional Chinese delicacies.
The most popular one is a fat man wearing a unicorn mask.
This guy is the most shameless.
He actually sold roasted cattle whip in Manchester Square.
And the slogan is extremely exciting.
"Su Bai's five-hour secret---Barbecue with hundreds of billions of cells of China's magical sacred cow!" 》
The five-hour advertising slogan alone has attracted countless middle-aged bald men who have always been keen on the secret of the time-effectiveness of pornographic sharks.
20 euros a bunch!
Even at such a high price.
There is still a queue of hundreds of meters in front of this stall!
no way!
As long as it's a game where Su Bai will play.
The Intihad Plaza, which can accommodate 100,000 people outside the Intihad Stadium, is always full.
At this time, the largest number of tourists in the square were tourists from China who had not bought tickets or bought fake tickets.
】
Join countless local fans in the square cheering for Su Bai's goal.
This has also become a must-have item for Chinese tourists coming to Manchester.
The lively square did not finally usher in the most exciting moment of the square until seven o'clock in the evening.
Because the Manchester City team bus will drive into the stadium on Zhongyang Avenue in the square!
Even the Manchester local police station deployed numerous police forces to clear the road at six o'clock.
The moment the bus appears.
The crowd was still like a wave, blocking the road.
Fortunately, the fans put the bus into the stadium after blocking the bus for five minutes to allow the Manchester City players in the bus to throw out enough signed jerseys.
............
When the bus slowly stopped in the parking lot of the stadium.
Lao Ke rushed to the pre-game press conference in a hurry.
According to the staff, Wenger has been here for five minutes.
Lao Ke didn't want Wenger to complain about his lack of punctuality.
Enter the press conference hall.
Sure enough, the white-haired Wenger sat in front of the stage early.
Very gentleman.
Wenger did not show off to Klopp because of his tardiness.
The two people nodded and said hello, and after Lao Ke said sorry, the press conference began.
............
A press conference without any nutrition.
Wenger has never been a gentleman who likes to argue with people in person.
certainly!
When necessary, Wenger will still stab him in the back.
However, at least at today's press conference, Wenger used very gentle words to praise Manchester City, which is now known as Europe's top level.
And Lao Ke also praised Arsenal, the only one who has defeated him this season.
After a good business chat, the two treated each other like guests.
Once back in the locker room.
Lao Ke started his own filial piety mode!
"remember!"
"Standing on the Intihad Stadium today is the Arsenal who were the only one to insult us in the first half of the league!"
"I still remember the arrogant scene of those Arsenal players jumping into the wall in front of me after the victory."
"today!"
"I just want to win!"
“And it’s a big win!”
"If we lose, no! If we can't win big!"
"You guys don't even think about going home!"
"One month of closed training!"
"I'm going to let you practice until the league is over and then let you go out!"
Lao Ke's filial piety no longer has much effect.
But as soon as Lao Ke came up with this trick of closed training, the Manchester City generals who were still lifeless suddenly became energetic.
Especially during this period, Aguero had a new doctor.
When I think of the private dentistry I managed to do with great difficulty.
Lao Gui immediately stood up excitedly and called on his teammates to howl together.
That’s right!
Because of Kompany's injury.
The one wearing the captain's armband today is Manchester's biggest king ever!
Sergio Aguero!
"victory!
! "
"We are Manchester City!"
"Let those sons of bitches from Arsenal tremble uncontrollably when they see us from Manchester City!"
"victory!
! "
"Roar!
! "
Um!
Lao Ke looked at the state of the generals in front of him and finally nodded with satisfaction.
It's just that satisfaction is satisfaction.
Lao Ke couldn't help but look at Candia, who was starting for the first time today.
By the way, will this guy be able to do it later?
At this time, on the other side, in the Arsenal dressing room.
Professor Wenger is lifelessly explaining Manchester City's loopholes to his team members!
"Kompany is injured!"
"That Candia was brought up by the reserve team!"
"Again!"
"Hit Candia and Demichelis between them."
"Remember, while defending, we need to be extremely efficient!"
That's what Wenger said.
What Wenger didn't know was that among the Arsenal players gathered together.
A man whose eyes seemed about to explode suddenly covered his chest as if he remembered something.
Yes!
When Ozil heard Wenger talking about the middle, he suddenly remembered the heavy hammer in the previous confrontation with Su Bai.
For Ozil, the opponent he least wants to encounter in his life is Su Bai, who is as strong as a wild animal.
.....................
"Sports Weekly!"
"Sports Weekly!"
"This is the 22nd round of the English Premier League being broadcast live for you!"
"Manchester City vs. Arsenal!"
"The players from both teams are already standing in their respective halves."
"The referee is also looking at his watch!"
“Beep!
! "
"Sports Weekly!"
"With the referee's whistle!"
"The game has officially begun!"
"First of all, the starting lineups of both sides!"
"The home team Manchester City's starting goalkeeper, attacking from left to right in the traditional blue jersey: Joe Hart!"
...........
"A slight difference from before is that on the central defender line, due to Kompany's injury, Klopp had to use the 31-year-old veteran Candia bought from Villarreal in La Liga during the winter break. "
"On the other side, the home team Arsenal's starting goalkeeper wearing the traditional red and white jersey attacking from right to left: Szczesny!"
"Left back: Gibbs! Centre-back: Mertesacker and Koscielny partnering!"
"Right back: Bakari Sagna!"
"Three central midfielders: Ozil in the middle, Ramsey and Arteta on both sides and further back!"
"Left winger: Walcott!"
"Right winger: Chamberlain!"
"Center: Giroud!"
Arsenal's possession of the ball.
Under the control of Wenger.
Today's Arsenal have completely developed the rhythm of their team football.
Everyone has one shot.
Moreover, they played very calmly.
After being calm enough to fall down in their own backcourt and midfield for more than two minutes, they started their first tentative attack.
It wasn't what Wenger said in the dressing room about playing behind Candia.
Arsenal's first attack actually chose a cross from the left.
The little tiger still used his speed to crush Manchester City's entire wing defense as usual.
The moment before Kolarov fell to the ground and blocked it.
Walcott quickly passed the ball with his left foot.
In the restricted area!
Candia, who started for Manchester City for the first time, had predicted his position in advance.
But at the same time as taking off.
Giroud, who rushed into the penalty area, hit Candia hard.
Physically, Candia is not at all shy about Giroud.
Stabilizing his body, Candia resisted Giroud, and then steadily pushed the ball directly out of the penalty area.
Sideline!
Watching Candia’s steady performance.
Lao Ke smiled happily.
only!
Just in front of the Arsenal bench not far from Lao Ke.
Professor Wenger also secretly curled up his lips.
On the court!
Su Bai was a little confused for a moment when he saw Arsenal playing such a simple long pass.
By the way, he is already around Ozil. Why doesn't Arsenal penetrate through the middle?
Don’t say it yet!
I feel a little guilty for bullying others.
It feels so good to bully someone like Ozil.
The game spent the first twenty minutes in this somewhat strange atmosphere.
During these twenty minutes.
Manchester City has had several threatening attacks.
But today may be due to Su Bai's bad feet.
Both long-range shots slipped out of the goal. One chance to score a header with a goal was blocked by Szczesny's superb prediction save.
Arsenal's offense is to find two sides step by step and then hit the high ball.
Candia played steadily several times, relying on Giroud to clear the ball.
So, looking at Arsenal, there are no other tricks.
The Manchester City team also started to press their own formation past half-time as usual.
Twenty-fourth minute of the game!
Manchester City's attack.
After Su Bai was double-teamed by three Arsenal players, De Bruyne could only hand the ball to Malvin on the right.
As soon as he caught the ball, Malvern planned to sprint down the wing.
Just didn't expect it.
Gibbs, the left back who had been in the backcourt, rushed forward before he could catch the ball.
The moment he caught the ball.
Gibbs dropped to the ground and made a tackle without hesitation.
This tackle directly shoveled the football in front of Malvin towards the center.
And that location!
Ozil, who had been showing little performance, suddenly came out.
at the same time!
The little tiger Walcott on the left and Chamberlain on the right, the moment Ozil received the ball, both inserted diagonally into the center from the wing.
Ozil raised his right leg high.
A fatal arc was drawn in the sky above the Intihad Stadium.
"Ozil!"
"Long pass!"
"Hit me from behind!"
“Candia!
! "
"Candia turn around!"
"this...."
In the stands!
The Manchester City fans who were still singing the Manchester City anthem suddenly became quiet.
No other reason.
on the court at this time.
Candia has been bypassed by Ozil's ghostly pass.
Demichelis was lagging behind.
But he obviously couldn't deal with the two sharp knives of Walcott and Chamberlain who were like lightning.
Walcott comfortably stopped the ball with his left foot behind Candia.
It's just a matter of seconds.
Walcott dribbled the ball to the edge of the penalty area.
Demichelis rushed towards Walcott with all his strength.
However, just as Demichelis was about to approach Walcott.
The little tiger had already diverted the ball with his left foot.
"Danger!
! "
"Chamberlain!
"
"Single sword!"
"Jo Hart strikes out, oops!"
"Chamberlain shot directly into the near corner!"
"Beep!"
With the ball rolling around Joe Hart and into the back of the net.
The referee also blew the whistle to confirm that the goal was valid.
The Intihad Stadium was quiet.
The Arsenal fans who came all the way from London roared hysterically.
Chamberlain, who scored the goal, rushed towards Wenger on the sidelines crazily.
Before Chamberlain could get close to Wenger.
Walcott threw Chamberlain straight down.
Immediately afterwards, Giroud, Ozil, Ramsey and Arteta, all the Arsenal players, all pounced on Chamberlain crazily.
Wenger was also excited and wanted to join the wall of people in front of him to celebrate.
Fortunately, the assistant coach stopped the overly excited Wenger.
With his old frame, he was afraid that once he passed, the entire Arsenal team would have to eat together at night.
Arsenal celebrated wildly.
Lao Ke clenched his fists with a livid face.
Now!
Lao Ke finally discovered it.
He was tricked by this old guy Wenger.
It turns out that Arsenal only played on the wing from the beginning, just to lure Manchester City up.
This old guy has been staring at Candia for a long time!
.............
This is Manchester City's weirdest game in this period.
It’s so weird that in the square outside the stadium, the roasted bullwhip of a certain hooded internet celebrity is also out of stock.
Because forty minutes have passed since the game!
Intihad Square, which should have been filled with excitement, was deathly quiet.
No other reason.
It's because the score board in the corner of the big screen in the square is completely different from the past.
0-2!
The powerful Manchester City was actually scored twice by Arsenal at their home court.
Su Bai was trapped in Arsenal's crowd tactics of four people and was unable to do anything for a while.
As soon as Manchester City presses forward, the panicked Candia on the central defender will become Manchester City's most fatal weakness.
Starting from behind the first long pass.
As long as Arsenal has a chance to counterattack.
Then they will only focus on Candia, who has been completely stunned.
The second goal was Ozil's fatal through ball again, and Giroud blasted the ball in front of the goal.
"Manchester City should hurry up and make substitutions!"
"Candia's ability to intercept high-altitude balls is okay, but his turn is like an aircraft carrier turning around."
"Wenger is still the same Wenger!"
"This game is definitely a wake-up call for all Manchester City fans."
"Manchester City has nuclear weapons like Su Bai!"
"But Su Bai's nuclear weapon is used for offense. Without a solid defense, once the opponent uses the crowd tactics to restrict Su Bai, every counterattack will be fatal to Manchester City!"
Lao Huang said anxiously in the commentary box on the sidelines.
And courtside!
Lao Ke was already anxious and started to warm up all the team members he brought with him.
However, what makes Lao Ke a little desperate.
Now he brings these defenders.
To be honest, not even Candia can compare.
There are even 18-year-olds from the youth team.
How can an 18-year-old young man withstand such pressure...
Ahem, okay, that pervert doesn't count.
Is it possible for Rio Fernandinho to retreat into the penalty area?
But in this way, if Kanter is alone, the high-altitude ball...
However!
Just when Lao Ke was frowning and thinking about countermeasures.
Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, Su Bai, who was still standing at the front on the court, strangely began to walk towards his backcourt.
Su Bai stood straight next to Candia, who was already sweating profusely.
18-year-old Su Bai patted Candia on the shoulder and pointed ahead.
Then he took care of himself and stood at the center back position.
Lao Ke is confused!
Not just Lao Ke!
All the Manchester City players on the bench behind Lao Ke were also stunned.
Even Wenger, who came up to the Arsenal bench with a smile on his face, was stunned for a moment.
what's the situation?
What does Su Bai mean?
Switch places with the blown Candia?
Putting a centre-back up front?
And then he, the world's top center, becomes a central defender?
this....
How the hell can you still play like this?
Just as everyone's brains were shutting down.
The referee blew the whistle to restart the game.
Manchester City's goal kick chance.
Su Bai!
After signaling Joe Hart to place the ball on the line of the small penalty area.
He started waving his hands to signal the whole team to come forward.
That gesture!
It's like saying, you all go to the jungle!
I am just as average as a person!
As for Arsenal.
Dajilu looked at Su Bai with a wicked smile.
For Giroud, Su Bai comes to the central defender, which is entirely to give him a chance to become famous.
The 41st minute of the game!
Manchester City's strangest attack of the season begins.
