Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Deng Kai was indeed a good leader.

Those who shout slogans are not necessarily good, but those who can make everyone have enough to eat and drink can't be bad!

Deng Kai is so cute!

In an instant, Deng Kai's crown shone even brighter, and his throne became even more secure.

The players are also more committed to the EFL Cup.

The fourth round of the EFL Cup kicked off on December 3.

Manchester City fielded their strongest lineup.

Meanwhile, Sunderland, knowing Manchester City's determination, abandoned their futile resistance and fielded their youth academy team.

Fowler scored two goals and provided one assist.

Adriano and Chiellini both scored with headers.

Deng Kai and Grosso provided assists.

Four to zero.

Manchester City easily advance to the EFL Cup quarterfinals!

It wasn't until then that England looked back at Manchester City's performance this season and finally realized the truth.

Manchester City's objective is crystal clear!

A Premier League relegation team?

A mid-table Premier League team?

It doesn't matter at all!

Manchester City never even considered how they would fare in the Premier League this season.

As long as they avoid relegation, their Premier League mission for this season is already accomplished.

This is why Deng Kai went out and had fun for half a month after the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Sky Sports: "With Arsenal's triumph last year, Wenger's Gunners have reached their peak! And Manchester United, with the signings of Ronaldo and Ferdinand this summer, have also returned to their former glory."

"The remaining teams, Liverpool, Chelsea, Newcastle United, Everton, and Blackburn Rovers, are equally competitive."

"Manchester City's arrival was very untimely. The Premier League in the last two years has not been a time when heroes emerge from chaos. Instead, it has been a two-superpower-and-many-strong structure, with no chance for ordinary teams to stand out."

"So instead of wasting time in the Premier League, let's focus on cup competitions!"

"Manchester City have had several high-scoring games in the EFL Cup this season. A major reason for that is that they field their best players in these kinds of matches."

"Lehman, Grosso, Robbie Fowler, these are Manchester City's best players. They don't play frequently in the league, but they haven't missed a single game in the EFL Cup."

Marca also interviewed Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez about this matter: "Manchester City's strength isn't in preparing the title bonus. It's in their previous actions and the news of the bonus that they've completely overwhelmed all their rivals!"

"In China, this seems to be called subduing the enemy without fighting! This is the highest level of warfare!"

"Didn't Sunderland just surrender this round?"

"This is the kingly approach! Very similar to our Real Madrid! This must be Maxi's doing... a grand season goal, resolute execution, and methodical teamwork... Maxi will succeed at Manchester City!"

"Real Madrid warmly welcomes such an excellent coach to join them in achieving great things!"

Florentino Pérez is not satisfied with Real Madrid's current manager, Vicente del Bosque.

This coach is a bit too... low-key!

This is certainly a manifestation of composure.

But Real Madrid doesn't need composure now.

We have the best football stars in the world!

Zidane, Figo, Raul, Ronaldo... how many current Ballon d'Or winners are there in total?

Half of them have fallen into Real Madrid's hands. If you keep a low profile now, won't you just be wasting all the hype and attention I generate from buying players?

Do you really think I release a superstar every year to improve the team's strength?

Improving your skills is for winning the championship; winning the championship is for gaining attention and recognition.

But I can achieve this goal by bringing in new players, so strength is nothing!

Is it okay to go wild?

Let everyone know that Real Madrid is the world's number one powerhouse, okay?

Finally, the Manchester Evening News raised a question that brought this wave of Manchester City's record-breaking bonuses to a close: "If Manchester City has already given up on the Premier League, then given their current form, they seem to still have some resources left."

"The EFL Cup ends in February... Will Manchester City then focus their remaining energy on the FA Cup?"

"What are their goals for the FA Cup?"

"The semi-finals? Or... the championship?"

hum!

It seems like an earthquake has struck English football.

The Sun followed up with: "Fun fact! Deng Kai started in the youth team and has been a professional player for four years. If we only consider club honors, he won the fewest championships in his first year with the U15 team."

"Only the league title and the UEFA Youth League."

"The following year, we won the U17 league, the Portuguese Second Division, and the Portuguese Cup."

"In the third year, we won the Portuguese Super Cup, the UEFA Cup, the Portuguese Primeira Liga, and the Portuguese Cup."

"Win the UEFA Super Cup, Portuguese Super Cup, Portuguese League, Portuguese Cup, and Champions League in the fourth year!"

"This is the fifth year, which is a new beginning for Deng Kai. He may be returning to where he started! So..."

"two!"

"After all, Deng Kai's only confirmed girlfriends or rumored girlfriends are Hathaway and Keira!"

Jiang Yunzhu: ? ? ?

Jiang Yunzhu: Who was it that slandered me for doing *that* at Deng Kai's villa a few days ago? Now it's not my fault, is it?

……

December 8th.

Deng Kai posted a photoshopped image on Dongqiudi.

The image shows a handsome photo of Aragorn, the King of Men, wielding the sword from "The Lord of the Rings".

However, Aragorn's face was replaced with Duncan's.

Deng Kai: "Brothers! Come with me to see The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers!"

On this day, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was released simultaneously in North America and England.

The film grossed $30 million on its opening day, breaking the record for the highest-grossing North American opening day this year.

The entire cast and crew of the Lord of the Rings Korean drama were overjoyed.

December 9th, the 17th round of the English Premier League.

Sunderland, fresh off a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City in the EFL Cup, immediately redeemed themselves.

They won 3-0 at home against Manchester City.

This also demonstrates that Sunderland's decision to forgo the EFL Cup was correct.

December 12th.

Hathaway has wrapped filming for "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl".

Hathaway immediately went to Manchester, stayed at Duncan's house for one night, and then flew back to the United States.

The filming of this movie took too long, and Hathaway is now facing a backlog of endorsements, conferences, and commercial activities.

Whether you have money or not, you will be exploited and enslaved by work.

The first few years after someone starts to rise to prominence are anything but peaceful.

Of course, once you've gone there, there will be plenty of time for things to settle down.

Both Deng Kai and Hathaway are optimistic about this.

December 14th, the 18th round of the English Premier League.

Manchester City will visit Charlton for a match.

Robbie Fowler and Franck Ribéry scored.

Deng Kai and Grosso provided assists.

The score is tied at 2-2.

Manchester City's league ranking has steadily declined.

But no one criticizes them.

Because everyone knows that the league is just Manchester City's training ground.

Their real battleground is the cup competition!

This unexpected effect was something Deng Kai hadn't anticipated.

Because in reality, if they can win the league, they certainly won't play in a way that risks losing.

We simply can't win.

Premier League teams are playing incredibly well.

It's not up to this current Manchester City team, which has an attacking style but no defensive style, to decide the outcome.

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
