Chapter 455: The undefeated golden body was destroyed, there is no martial ethics at all
The Ligue [-] team is indeed not strong in the Champions League, but the French national team's performance is not weak at all.
Moreover, there are many players from Ligue [-] in the five major leagues. The reason why Ligue [-] ranks at the bottom among the five major leagues is actually related to their lack of a leader.
In addition to Ligue 4, the five major leagues have their own top clubs, including BIG[-] in the Premier League, Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga, Milan and Juventus in Serie A, and even the most dominant Bundesliga has players like Bayern. Top wealthy family.
With top clubs supporting their appearance, they can gather popularity and attract more outstanding players to join. After outstanding players join, their strength will be further enhanced and they will be able to achieve better results in competitions such as the Champions League and Europa League. .
Before Paris, Ligue [-] lacked such top giants.
It sounds like a prosperous scene with a hundred flowers blooming, but the teams in the entire league are generally not strong. No one can compete with other teams, and no giants can be born.
A league without wealthy clubs cannot retain outstanding local players.
In pursuit of better treatment and a higher stage, these outstanding players will naturally choose to leave.
This has caused a serious brain drain in Ligue [-]. Wenger has taken away young demons from Ligue [-] in recent years.
After Wenger, other giants also set their sights on Ligue [-] teams, and players such as Benzema, Griezmann, Giroud, Nasri, and Kante were poached one after another.
The French are obviously aware of this problem, so when Mbappe wanted to transfer to Real Madrid in the future, the French government and even the president himself intervened.
……
After returning to Manchester, Manchester City soon faced the challenge of league rival Southampton.
The opponent was not strong and ranked in the middle of the league. In addition, more than half of Manchester City's main players had not participated in the previous Champions League games. After recuperating and fighting at home, they easily defeated their opponent 3:1.
After this battle, Manchester City's lead in the standings expanded to 9 points.
Only a third of the way into this season, they have already opened up a gap of nearly 2 points with No. 10.
Guardiola's team's results in the league are really stable.
Everyone is no longer surprised that Manchester City occupies the top spot in the standings.
After the end of this round of games, except for a few media reports on the results of Manchester City's game, most of the remaining media turned their spotlight on a dark horse-Ranieri's Leicester City!
At the beginning of the season, Leicester City attracted a lot of attention with its winning streak and was dubbed the dark horse.
However, the outside world generally believes that Leicester City, which has a relatively thin lineup and lacks big-name stars, will gradually lose its dark horse status and become a mediocre team in the middle of the season after other opponents figure out their characteristics.
Their scores will gradually return to the normal range.
However, what surprised everyone was that Ranieri's Leicester City showed amazing resilience. Not only did they not return to mediocrity as everyone predicted, but they became more and more courageous.
Except for losing to Arsenal in the seventh round of the league, they have achieved a record of 8 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss so far.
In this round of the league, Leicester City defeated the menacing Manchester United 1:1 at home, consolidating its second place in the league.
Although the gap with Manchester City is very large and the hope of winning the Premier League championship is very small, as long as they maintain their current form, it will become a high probability that Fox City will get a place in the Champions League next season.
As a team that has been in low-level leagues for a long time, they have never reached the Champions League in the 132 years since their establishment.
As long as Ranieri can lead his group of disciples to complete this miracle, their names will surely be engraved in the history of Leicester City and will be remembered by Leicester City fans forever!
The Premier League has always been dominated by the traditional giants. A few giant clubs sing their praises and I come on stage, leaving almost no chance for ordinary teams to perform.
So when Leicester City suddenly emerged this season, it immediately attracted the attention of a large number of fans and media.
People seem to be a little tired of the situation where these top giants have always monopolized the league championship, and hope to see some spoilers step forward to challenge them.
Manchester City played this role a few years ago, but Manchester City is a team that has received investment from wealthy people in the Middle East. The smell of copper makes many fans dislike it.
Compared with Manchester City, Leicester City is an out-and-out grassroots player, and their current record is not based on big spenders.
It is said that last summer, Leicester City's transfer budget was only more than 3000 million euros, which was not comparable to the expense of a wealthy team to buy a star.
The reason why they have achieved such outstanding results depends on the dedication of their three armies, the unity of their generals, and the concerted efforts of everyone.
Such a grassroots team is obviously more likely to win the favor of fans.
After all, most people are just ordinary people who want to see stories of grassroots counterattacks against rich and handsome people.
This is what is happening in Leicester City.
Giant clubs such as Manchester City and Manchester United are naturally the targets of their counterattack.
After Leicester City drew with Manchester United, fans can't wait to watch their game against Manchester City.
The game between the two teams happened to be arranged at the last game of the first half, which was also the second game of the Christmas Express!
There is still a full month before that game, but the outside world has already been eager to start hyping it in advance.
On December 12, at the press conference at the end of Manchester City's 2:4 victory over Hull City in the EFL Cup quarter-finals.
The most asked questions from reporters were not about the game between Manchester City and Hull City, but about their game against Leicester City.
"Coach Guardiola, how do you evaluate Ranieri and his Leicester City team?"
"Ranieri is an excellent coach. He has an extraordinary vision and can always discover some amazing young players!"
Guardiola has been paying attention to Ranieri's team. There are several players in the Leicester City team that he is very optimistic about and even wants to introduce.
The achievement of these people is inseparable from Ranieri's promotion and training.
Ranieri always has a way to maximize the potential of a bunch of not-so-good cards, especially in building the foundation of the team. He has his own unique understanding and profound skills.
Even Guardiola feels inferior at this point. He knows himself very well. His style of play has extremely high demands on players. Anyone who is not a wealthy or even a super wealthy team cannot play this style.
Let him lead a civilian team like Ranieri. To be honest, Guardiola feels that he may not even be able to avoid relegation!
"Then do you think Leicester City will pose a threat to Manchester City?" Another reporter asked after seeing Guardiola's high opinion of Ranieri.
"Of course, any team may pose a threat to Manchester City. After all, we are not invincible!"
"But Manchester City still maintains an unbeaten record so far, whether in the league or cup, and even in the Champions League!"
The reporter scoffed at Guardiola's words. Manchester City has not lost on any front this season.
"Haha, you know, anything can happen on the field. Although we have remained undefeated so far, maybe we will lose the next game?"
Guardiola said this very perfunctorily. Manchester City's next opponent is Stoke City.
Their opponents are currently ranked 14th in the league, and they don't look like they can beat Manchester City. Who would believe that Manchester City will lose to them?
However, to everyone's surprise, Stoke City actually won!
On December 12, in the 5th round of the Premier League, the first game between Stoke City and Manchester City was played.
Stoke City, playing at home, gave Manchester City a slap in the face in the early stages. They scored in just 2 minutes.
And when Manchester City became angry and attacked aggressively, they launched a quick counterattack in the 8th minute and scored another goal, rewriting the score to 2:0.
The Britannia Stadium was boiling instantly. Not to mention Manchester City, even the fans of Stoke City themselves did not expect that their team could get such a dream start!
This scene is very similar to the previous one between Liverpool and Manchester City. The difference is that Stoke City's head coach is very pragmatic.
After the team took a two-goal lead, they decisively chose to retreat with all members on defense and honestly set up a bus in front of their goal.
In the next 10 minutes, Manchester City used various methods to attack the opponent's goal again and again, but all failed.
In the end, Manchester City lost 0:2 away to Stoke City and lost their first game of the season.
This result surprised everyone, and many people thought of what Guardiola said in an interview with reporters before.
Unexpectedly, those words he said casually turned out to be a prophecy.
Just when Manchester City lost for the first time of the season, in another game, Leicester City defeated Swansea 3-0 away from home, successfully reducing the point difference between them and Manchester City to 6 points.
When the two teams were 9 points apart, few people thought Leicester City could challenge Manchester City for the league title.
But when Manchester City was defeated by a mid-to-lower team, and Leicester City took the opportunity to narrow the gap between the two teams, the outside world's expectations for Leicester City to win suddenly increased a lot. cut!
"Could it be that we are really going to see a miracle of a dark horse counterattack in the Premier League?"
"How many years has it been? How many years has it been since we didn't see a non-rich team win the championship on the stage of the top league?"
"If I remember correctly, the last time a non-rich team won the Premier League was Ben Black in the 94-95 season. It has been more than 20 years so far!"
"I really hope Leicester City can counterattack Manchester City and win the championship. I really don't want to see Manchester City and other giant teams monopolizing the league championship!"
"+1 upstairs, I also want to see the dark horse counterattack!"
"Haha, if Leicester City really succeeds, then we will be lucky enough to be witnesses of the miracle!"
"To pour some cold water on it first, Manchester City is very strong. Although other giants have fallen behind this season, Manchester City's foundation still seems to be very stable. It will be very difficult for Leicester City to counterattack and win the championship!"
"Yes, after all, the opponent is the top team in the world. The team is full of stars, and has top coaches and top players. To beat them, you really need very good luck!"
"Yes, if Leicester City really want to surpass Manchester City, then they must win the game on December 12. It is a key battle worth six points. Whoever wins Whoever wins will be able to take the lead in winning the championship!"
……
The external hype did not seem to put any pressure on Guardiola and Manchester City. On the contrary, everyone in the team felt relieved because of the loss.
It's good to be undefeated, but they think about keeping their undefeated title in every game, which makes them very tired when playing.
It is not a good thing for the players if this state of affairs continues, because it will continue to put psychological pressure on them and make them carry a heavy burden forward.
Although the loss to Stoke City was a bit surprising, because their lead is still very large, it will have little impact on Manchester City's championship situation.
As long as they don't continue to fall off the chain, that'll be fine!
December 12th, the last game of the Champions League group stage.
Manchester City faces the challenge of Monchengladbach at home.
This game is nothing for Manchester City, but for the other three teams, it is about their fate.
Therefore, before the start of the game, Juventus and Sevilla both sent people to the Etihad Stadium in advance to report the situation here in real time, so that the teams could grasp the latest information as soon as possible.
Even Morata, who has a close relationship with Lin Quan, called Lin Quan for help, hoping that he could teach Monchengladbach a good lesson at home and try to give them a disastrous defeat.
Since he didn't get a chance to play in the last game, Lin Quan is not sure whether he can play this time.
So he just said that if there is a chance, he will try his best, but everything depends on the coach's arrangements.
The head coach of Monchengladbach complimented Guardiola greatly before the game, saying that he is young and promising, has good coaching, and has outstanding abilities.
It seems that he wants to use this method to make the other party let him go!
Manchester City sent substitutes in the last game, so they should also send substitutes in this game, right?
After all, the Premier League Christmas Express is coming soon, and Guardiola must not want his team to consume too much physical energy at this time, right?
Although Borussia Monchengladbach is not an opponent of Manchester City's main force, if Manchester City really sends a team of substitutes, then he feels that they still have a chance.
Borussia now has 5 points. If they can win this game, they have a great chance of qualifying.
However, when he saw Manchester City's starting lineup, Borussia's coach was dumbfounded!
Aguero, Lin Quan, De Bruyne...
What about the agreed-upon substitute lineup?
It doesn't talk about martial arts!
