Chapter 221 Wenger's harsh words, Manchester City with internal and external troubles

"Manchester City's players have behaved very strangely on the field during this time. They seem to be afraid to attack."

In the commentary seat, He Wei also noticed something unusual about Manchester City.

"Manchester City is playing one less player now, and the opponents have also gained momentum during this time. It seems that it is understandable to play conservatively!"

Xu Yang tried to find some reasons for Manchester City, trying to explain why they chose this way.

"No? If that's the case, then why did they replace Lin Quan in the final stage? Can't they just replace a defensive player?"

He Wei obviously doesn't believe his partner's explanation, because Manchester City's replacement of Lin Quan means that they want to rely on offense to win.

……

On the court, taking advantage of a dead ball, Lin Quan found Captain Kompany.

"Captain, we need to strengthen our offense, we can't continue to defend passively like this!"

Kompany was a little hesitant. He was in poor form in this game and made several mistakes. Pantilimon's red card was directly related to him.

"Let's be careful. We have one less person. If we launch an attack at this time and are counterattacked by the opponent, we will probably lose."

"If you lose, you lose. There is no difference between 0 points and 1 point in my opinion, and if we continue to defend passively like this, we may not be able to hold on to this draw."

Lin Quan is a little dissatisfied with Kompany's hesitation. In his opinion, Manchester City is better at offense than defense.

If you continue to attack, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.

But if they continue to defend passively like this, they might really lose!
Kompany knew that Lin Quan had a point.

My state in this game is so bad, I have already made several mistakes before.

If he continues to defend passively like this, it will be difficult for him to guarantee that he will not make major mistakes like before.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, nodded heavily and said:
"Okay, listen to you, attack!"

Lin Quan breathed a sigh of relief. Kompany is the captain, and after convincing him, it will be easy to convince others.

Sure enough, when he took the ball to attack again, Manchester City's players were finally willing to step forward to participate in the attack.

Although Manchester City has one less player on the field, their lineup is much more luxurious than the opponent's after all. With Lin Quan on the field, under the unified thinking of Manchester City players and their full attack, West Bromwich Albion quickly was suppressed.

After a threatening attack by Manchester City, the coach of West Bromwich Albion also calmed down.

"Hold on!"

"All come back to defend!"

The game is about to end, if they are killed by the opponent at this time, then their work is really wasted.

Although he really wants to beat Manchester City to get 3 points, but with this posture, the opponent's offensive threat is far greater than them.

If you continue to attack Manchester City, maybe the opponent will score first.

The game has come to this time, and whoever can score the first goal will almost be a lore.

West Bromwich Albion's offensive power is not strong, at least a lot weaker than Manchester City, so it is obviously unwise to fight with the opponent at this time.

On the contrary, if they withdraw all their troops to participate in the defense, and use the iron barrel formation to hold the last few minutes, they will be able to hold a tie.

At least one point for a draw, and one point from Manchester City. He is already content with this result!

The coach of West Bromwich Albion didn't know that what seemed to him to be the most correct order was the decisive reason for their loss at the last moment.

Manchester City's players are participating in the offense, but they are very afraid of West Bromwich Albion's counterattack ability. The back line dare not press too far forward, and the midfielder has been wary of the opponent's counterattack.

In this case, Manchester City's offensive firepower is far from being maximized!

However, West Bromwich Albion abandoned their martial arts and took the initiative to withdraw all the players back to put on the bus, which made Manchester City breathe a sigh of relief.

Kompany and others saw that things were exactly as Lin Quan said, Manchester City suppressed the enemy with offense and resolved the threat posed by the opponent to their own defense, so they were determined.

They no longer had any worries, and boldly pressed forward one after another, delivering shells and providing support to the offensive players in the frontcourt.

For a while, the situation on the field became Manchester City's siege of West Bromwich Albion's goal.

On the sidelines, the coach of West Bromwich Albion could not help secretly rejoicing when he saw that Manchester City's offensive firepower was so fierce.

Fortunately, I withdrew all the players back in advance. If I still had a fluke mentality at this time and wanted to play against Manchester City, my goal would have been broken by the opponent long ago.

Unconsciously, the game has come to 90 minutes, and the score on the field is still 2:2.
The fans at the Hawthorn Stadium stood up nervously, stretched their necks and looked towards their own half.

In the past few minutes, Manchester City's offensive has been overwhelming, suppressing their players within a 30-meter area and being unable to move.

Several defense lines of West Bromwich Albion have been compressed to the extreme, and the penalty area is densely packed with people.

Lin Quan tried to make a breakthrough, but because there were too many people, he would often be destroyed by others after he passed one or two players.

No way, too many people!

This is no longer two fists against four hands, this is simply one person against a whole team.

Moreover, there are too many people in the penalty area, and almost all the forward passing lines are cut off by the opponent, making it difficult for him to pass the ball to his teammates.

This may not be because the defensive awareness of the opponent's players is very good, it is simply the effect caused by the accumulation of too many people.

Since this doesn't work, let's shoot long shots!
Two ways to break the dense defense: set the ball and long shot!
Set-pieces are a waste of time, Manchester City don't have much time now, even if they want to use this trick, they have to wait until the last chance to attack.

Thinking of this, Lin Quan no longer forcibly hit the penalty area, he withdrew from the penalty area, passed the ball to David Silva, and came to the area near the top of the arc in the penalty area.

David Silva made a gesture to break through the penalty area from the left, and after attracting the opponent's defensive player, he decisively passed the ball to his teammate at the bottom.

Navas quickly crossed the ball and went to find his teammates in the penalty area.

Kompany and Yaya Toure both jumped up and tried to compete for a header.

The players of West Bromwich Albion could not make them happy. While interfering with the two, they also joined the competition for the top, trying to grab the landing point and destroy the ball.

Kompany, who was in poor form throughout the game, bravely grabbed the spot this time.

However, he was pushed by the opponent, his center of gravity was unstable, and it was difficult to adjust his body posture, making it difficult to make an attacking movement.

At this time, he saw Lin Quan at the top of the penalty area. When the defensive players were all focused on the football, there was no one around Lin Quan!
good chance!
Kompany didn't think much, and gave the ball to Lin Quan with his forehead in the air.

Well done!
Seeing Kompany pass the ball to himself, Lin Quan secretly praised him.

West Bromwich Albion players saw Kompany passing the ball to the unguarded Lin Quan, and all of them were scared to death.

Oops, missed this guy!

Because of his height, Lin Quan was not a big threat in the top fight, and he left the penalty area, so the West Bromwich Albion players lowered their defense against him.

However, this choice was a fatal mistake, because the biggest threat in the Manchester City team is always Lin Quan!

Seeing the flying football, Lin Quan didn't wait for the opponent's defensive player to rush over. He omitted the step of stopping the ball, and directly raised his leg to aim at the flying football and perform a volley!

Bang!
With a loud bang, the football flew out and flew towards the West Bromwich Albion goal.

The West Bromwich Albion player who had just completed the top fight and hadn't landed yet had no time to take off for the second time to intercept Lin Quan's shot.

What's even more tragic is that the goalkeeper's sight was blocked by players from both sides jumping up to compete for the top, and he failed to spot Lin Quan's shot in the first place.

"careful!"

"Danger!"

The West Brom fans in the stands behind the goal were shocked and shouted loudly, trying to warn the goalkeeper.

However, the flying speed of the football is too fast, almost the moment the goalkeeper heard their reminder, the ball had already flown in front of him.

Swish!
The goalkeeper raised his hand symbolically, and then he heard the sound of the ball flying into the goal and making close contact with the net.

Seeing the football fly into the goal, all 21 players on the field were stunned.

Lin Quan, who was the first to react, ran excitedly, taking off his jersey while running!
He threw away his jersey, showing off his muscular body, ran to the corner where the fans of the visiting team were, and roared at the cameras in the corner!
The reporters on the sidelines pressed the shutter one after another to record this moment.

"Ah, so handsome, Lin Quan, I want to give birth to a monkey for you!"

Lin Quan rarely undresses to celebrate, so even Manchester City fans rarely see his real figure.

At this time, after seeing Lin Quan's muscular body, the fans at the scene suddenly went crazy.

Some female fans even had stars in their eyes and screamed again and again.

Lin Quan's original appearance is not low, and his strong muscles add a lot of points to him.

Not to mention the female fans at the scene, even the fans who watched the live broadcast on TV and on the Internet became commotion at this time.

"Damn it, Emperor Lin has a body full of tendons, it's fine!"

"It's no wonder that Lin Huang's physical resistance is so strong, and he is not at a disadvantage against the defenders of the Premier League. It turns out that he is still a hidden devil with muscles!"

"Hiss, these Yan dogs want to throw themselves into their arms when they see Emperor Lin is handsome!"

"Hehe, Lin Huang is not only handsome, but also has a good figure, good football skills, and is rich..."

"Don't say it, don't say it, I'm already autistic, thank you!"

Seeing the enthusiastic response from the fans, Lin Quan was preparing to respond to them with more handsome poses for the camera.

However, his group of incomprehensible teammates had already rushed up at this time, and a group of people threw him to the ground like crazy.

The ups and downs of this game made the players of Manchester City very depressed. At this time, Lin Quan once again staged a lore, which finally made a big stone in their hearts fall to the ground.

At the same time, the players of Manchester City also felt a little puzzled, a little West Bromwich Albion, why did it feel so difficult to play?

The opponent's performance didn't feel very strong, did he?

After they finished celebrating, it was almost time for stoppage time.

After the re-kick-off, the referee did not give West Bromwich Albion any chance, and directly blew the whistle for the end of the game.

In the end, with Lin Quan's one-hit lore in the 92nd minute, Manchester City beat their opponent 3:2 thrillingly in the away game.

After 14 rounds, Manchester City currently has 13 wins and 1 draw, accumulating 40 points.

It is a pity that Arsenal also won this round, and the point difference between the two sides has not been widened.

Since losing to Manchester United in the away game, Wenger's team has performed very well recently, biting the point difference with Manchester City with a wave of 3 consecutive victories.

But it doesn't matter, the two teams are about to play against each other directly after two rounds. Perhaps in this game, Manchester City can widen the gap with them.

However, what is surprising is that before they played against Arsenal, Manchester City lost the chain early.

In the 15th round of the league, in the away game against Southampton, Manchester City, which scored the first goal, was once again reversed by the opponent.

This time, Lin Quan also failed to save the team, and Manchester City was finally tied by Southampton.

Fortunately, Arsenal also lost the chain. They were also tied by Toffee Everton at home.

The point difference between the two teams has not changed, it is still 6 points.

After learning of this result, the fans of both teams were very sorry.

Manchester City fans felt they had missed the chance to widen the gap, and if they could win this round, they would be eight points ahead of their opponents before facing Arsenal.

Arsenal fans are annoyed that their team has lost the chain at home. If they are not tied by Everton, the difference between them and Manchester City will be reduced to 4 points.

If they can beat Manchester City in the next round, the difference between the two teams will be reduced to 1 point!
In this way, the situation of Arsenal's championship has been greatly changed.

If Manchester City's state continues to slump, they may be able to snatch the half-time championship from the opponent at the end of the half-time game.

After the game, Wenger said in the face of reporters' questions that he had found a way to deal with Manchester City. Arsenal would end Manchester City's unbeaten golden body and home victory record at the Etihad Stadium.

For Wenger's statement, many people think he is bragging.

After all, Manchester City's record at home is too terrifying, and the impression left on the outside world is too deep.

"I don't think the professor is bragging. Manchester City may have been invincible a month ago, but now they are like a tired and weak beast, with a scary skin. In fact, they are no longer as good as before. Strong strength too.

Otherwise, why did they play so embarrassingly when they faced West Bromwich Albion and Southampton? "

Thinking about Manchester City's first two games, it seems that something is wrong with their form.

Manchester City, which was able to slaughter Tottenham 6-0 at home, was reversed one after another in the away game. If it weren't for Lin Quan's brave performance and the savior who was in danger several times, Manchester City might have lost.

"I don't think we need to continue guessing. The next game is the Champions League. Whether there is any problem with Manchester City's state, we will know how they play against Bayern in the away game!"

"That's right, neither Manchester City nor Bayern can afford to lose in this game. We must go all out to compete for the first place in the group. This gives us an excellent opportunity to observe the situation of Manchester City!"

"If they withstood Bayern's offensive and even overturned Bayern, it would be enough to prove that there is nothing wrong with Manchester City's current state; on the contrary, if they are completely defeated by Bayern and lose by a big score, then Manchester City may really have a problem !"

On December 12, under the eyes of everyone, Manchester City came to the Allianz Arena to challenge the mighty Bayern Munich.

This is the last group match and the most important one!
