Villa is only a year and a half older than Torres.
Villa has been playing for the Spanish second division team Sporting Gijon.
Torres was the crown prince of Atletico Madrid in the Second Division, and he played in the Second Division early.
In comparison, Torres's starting point is much higher.
He is a player that Real Madrid has wanted to sign.
But... Torres has had no outstanding achievements so far.
Villa, on the other hand, scored 20 goals in Segunda División last year and was known as a lone hero.
Torres was officially called up by the national team two months ago.
But at the same time he also learned a piece of news.
The national team is also considering Villa, who also plays for Manchester City.
The two of them...are competitors.
This is true for both club and national team!
Deng Kai nodded after receiving Fonte's feedback: "Your news is very timely. In this case, Torres must get a fair chance."
"Otherwise, once he fails to be selected for the national team, he will blame the club for not giving him enough opportunities."
"In the next EFL Cup game, Torres and Villa will start together!"
Fonte left with satisfaction.
Needless to say, this is an important means for Fonte to "acquire" Torres.
He helped Torres solve his troubles. How could Torres disobey him?
Fonte's status as "locker room leader" cannot be established by Kung Pao Chicken.
Maxa:? ? ?
Maxa: Isn't it?
Fonte has solved problems for players on the team many times.
Of course, Font also knows that this is the opportunity given to him by the Kai team.
The Celtics hold him up as the leader of the locker room, so at some point he has to stand up and do something that offends people.
Only in this way can Team Kai be free from cause and effect and maintain the dignity of a saint.
…
After training ended that afternoon, Fonte chatted with Torres.
The latter's mood instantly became excited.
Not just because of the opportunity to play in the EFL Cup in midweek.
It was even more because Torres learned from Fonte that the team would work hard for him to join the Spanish national team.
Fonte's original words: "You don't care who helps you exert strength, and don't worry about how to exert strength for you. Anyway, there is no problem for you to join the Spanish national team, understand? I can't say more."
After finishing speaking, he stared at the poster of Deng Kai in the aisle of the stadium.
Torres reacted immediately: "Team Kai?"
Fonte: "Shh! I didn't say that. This is your own guess. Just know this. Don't reveal it to others, otherwise something will happen... I won't be able to deal with... .”
Torres nodded repeatedly, shouting in his heart YYDS, Team Kai!
In fact, Deng Kai does not need to work hard on this matter.
Even if Villa is better than Torres, judging from the Spanish national team's current striker, Torres must be selected.
Raul, Morientes, Luque.
Raul has comprehensive skills and can play from forward to attacking midfielder, but he is not hard enough and lacks impact power.
Morientes is a fulcrum center with a powerful tactical effect.
Spain currently lacks an impactful, speedy striker.
Therefore, several players they have recently inspected are in this category.
Deportivo's Luque and Manchester City's Torres are among the best.
Luke's league performance was better.
Torres is in the Internet celebrity team, has an advantage in traffic, and his key background is more noble. He led the youth team to win various honors along the way and was more competitive than Luke.
It would be more stable if there were more highlights.
You have to become famous early, and Villa suffered the disadvantage of being a late bloomer.
…
October 28, the third round of the EFL Cup, Manchester City VS Nottingham Forest.
The game kicks off at the Etihad Stadium.
Manchester City has home advantage, and Nottingham Forest can get a share of the ticket revenue, and everyone is happy.
Nottingham Forest is a very famous team. Although it seems to be unpopular now, it was the legendary team that started the miracle of Nottingham Forest.
In the 1976-1977 season, they were promoted to England's top league.
In the 1977-1978 season, they became the league and League Cup double champions as a newly promoted team, creating a miracle as a newly promoted team.
In the 1978-1979 season, they won the Champions League.
From 1979 to 1980, they won the Champions League again.
To this day, the unbeaten record in England's top league still belongs to Nottingham Forest.
Forty-two games undefeated!
The media therefore found a source of news.
"Sky Sports": "The undefeated ed versus the undefeated ing! This is a war about the undefeated!"
"Manwan": "The Etihad has once again transformed into a hell stadium. Can the terrifying Blue Moon kill Nottingham Forest?"
"The Times": "Nottingham Forest has used all its main players, and Manchester City has made a pure substitute lineup. There is still suspense in the game!"
"Echo": "Last year Manchester City gave up the league and focused on the League Cup and FA Cup. This year they attach importance to the league and the European war, so giving up the League Cup is inevitable."
During the pre-match press conference, the media interviewed Deng Kai.
Reporter: "Deng Kai, why are you still starting this game? We noticed that you are the only starting player in this lineup."
Deng Kai: "Nottingham Forest is a great team and they deserve respect. This is why I am still in the team's starting lineup."
Crash.
The reporters in the audience applauded.
Mr. Kai is kind.
Only the head coach of Nottingham Forest looked like MMP: Do you dare to disrespect us?
Deng Kai added: "In addition, Manchester City has many excellent players. Of course the starting players are excellent, but the substitutes and rotation players are not inferior."
"What we need more is to formulate targeted formations based on the characteristics of the opponent's players and tactics."
"We may have the best coaching staff in the world. Maxa, Guardiola, Deschamps and Schmeichel often spend half a year studying a perfect rest plan."
Professor Tsinghua praised this.
Reporter: "Adriano, who is in good form, did not play in this game. Is Manchester City worried about his injury, so they chose the strike combination of Torres and Villa?"
Deng Kai nodded: "This is one aspect. Adelaide is one of our strongest weapons. He poses a great threat and consumes a lot of money."
"We have developed a strict physical plan for him. We want to ensure that we have a healthy Ronaldo in the sprint at the end of the season!"
"In addition, allowing Villa and Torres to cooperate more is also our contribution to the Spanish national team."
"Both of them are excellent forwards. If they can create a chemical reaction, the Spanish national team will have more forward options."
In response, the Spanish national team said: He really made me cry to death!
Manchester City's starting lineup for this game is:
Torres, Villa
Deng Kai, Cesc Fabregas, David Silva
Mascherano
Ashley Young, Thiago Silva, Kompany, Sun Jihai
Neuer
It's really a pure substitute lineup.
