1413 Manchester City Legion
The reason why the media focused on Anderson was naturally because the Red Devils were short of major generals. With Phil Jones suspended, the Red Devils were short of major generals in midfield, which made Anderson's appearance more attractive.
At the same time, it also reflects a common problem that Red Devils fans have talked about in recent years: the decline in the strength of the team lineup!
In contrast to Manchester United's "noisy neighbors", the midfield can be described as full of talents.
What is even more ironic is that the combination of Manchester City's substitute midfielder Nasri + De Jong is stronger than Manchester United's main midfielder Anderson + Fletcher. In the competition, it is completely "unable to hold".
And with Anderson's current ability, I am afraid that even Manchester City's bench will hardly have a place.
How can such a player deserve to occupy a valuable place in the Manchester United team with a glorious history? !
At this time, Sir Alex Ferguson may have to regret some of the decisions made in the summer: this summer, Manchester United had the opportunity to win either of the two top attacking midfielders, Sneijder and Nasri, but due to various reasons, In the end, they all passed by Manchester United.
Ferguson turned the burden to Anderson, who was transferred in 07, but has been embarrassing.
Judging from the facts, this decision has a fatal blow to the Manchester United team - after Scholes retired, now Manchester United has almost no more players in the team except for the "living fossil" Giggs who is about to turn 38. To any player who can organize the attack in the middle and pass the threatening ball.
Fleet Street reporter Howard wrote on his Twitter after the game: "Sneijder ... Cleverley ... something should have happened. For Manchester United, there is a second-rate midfielder , this season seems hopeless."
After the 1:6 defeat at home to Derby rivals Manchester City, Ferguson called it "the worst day in Manchester United's history."
Evans was sent off in the 47th minute, which became the turning point of the game. Manchester City scored 4 goals in the last 3 minutes, allowing Manchester United to swallow the bitter fruit of the disastrous defeat.
Ferguson said after the game: "This is the worst day in our history. This is the worst result in my coaching history. Even in my playing career, I don't remember that we have lost 1:6.
I can't believe the score.
The first goal was definitely a blow for us, but we were 0-1 down and we were able to pull it back.In the second half, Evans was sent off and killed us.
When we fell behind by 1:4, we still maintained an offensive posture, and they repeatedly formed three-on-two.This is crazy football!
I think we have experienced players at the back, Ferdinand and Evra, they will take more of the defensive load, but we just blindly attack.
We should just be able to say: 'It's our turn too'.
This is a bad day.We'll recover, by January we'll be fine and we'll usually work in the second half of the season.
We have already played all the teams near Manchester United in the standings, and they still have to fight each other. Therefore, looking at it now, the second half of the season is very important for us.
We will respond to that, no doubt about it.It was the perfect result for us to react because there was an awkward atmosphere in the dressing room.
I am also concerned about the goal difference, which was very good for us last season, most seasons it is good for us, but maybe this time it will be different. "
Sweeping Manchester United 6-1 at Old Trafford, I am afraid that this is a result that no one would have thought of before the game, but the rising Manchester City Legion did it, allowing the mighty Red Devils to taste the worst pain in 50 years A defeat, of course, all of this was achieved under the leadership of the Italian marshal Mancini.
Perhaps before this game, all Premier League fans will think that Mancini is the weakest link in this "new galaxy giant" Manchester City. His previous coaching experience in Inter Milan and Lazio is not convincing. After arriving in Manchester City in the Premier League, although he has a good card in his hand that all coaches in the world will be jealous of, the report card given is really average: last season, he barely kept his coaching position only by relying on an FA Cup champion.
However, today it was such a person known as the "weakest link" that made the mighty Manchester United suffer the worst defeat in history, and still lost to their most disdainful and contemptuous neighbor, Manchester City!
The depression in Ferguson's heart can be imagined. Of course, it is rare for young coach Mancini to hear the fans shouting and cheering for him at Old Trafford.
When the game progressed to the 69th minute, Aguero scored Manchester City's third goal of the game and sealed the victory. The hymn was sung: "Mancini, mancini, mancini" cheered endlessly. According to the description of the "Sky Sports" live broadcaster, Manchester City fans continued to sing praises to Mancini for as long as 3 minutes. , and such cries and admiration turned into prolonged applause after the game. At this moment, it can be said that this is the most glorious peak moment of Mancini's 30-year coaching career: from Lazio to Fiorentina, and then To Inter Milan, I am afraid that the Italian young coach has never received such courtesy!Even when leading Inter Milan to win the league championship.
After the game, Mancini shook hands with Ferguson with a serious face. Although his expression was serious, the Italian's heart was already happy.
On the Manchester City bench near the end of the game, the camera still caught Mancini's wanton smile, those two signature dimples...
Next door to Manchester, Liverpool watched the fire from the other side, happily watching Manchester United and Manchester City "dog eat dog". Although the result did not necessarily make Liverpool players and fans happy, but take a closer look at the changes in the standings. Liverpool's ranking has risen rapidly in this round Reached the second place in the standings!
Manchester City leading the standings with 25 points is indeed in full swing!
Liverpool are 20 points behind the leader and 5 points in second place.
Manchester United and Chelsea lost together by only 19 points this round.
Arsenal's 13 points also narrowed the distance with the top four.
The defending champion Liverpool has jumped from fourth to second after two rounds of competition, and the momentum of catching up is particularly strong.
When Fleet Street was full of praise for Manchester City's rise, defending champion Liverpool witnessed all this in peace.
Years of experience in the past told the generals of the Red Army, when you have not gained anything, don't laugh!
The same is true for leading and the same for lagging behind.
Manchester City, if you want to be proud, go for it!
The league has only played 9 rounds. (to be continued~^~)
