Chapter 2114 Guardiola: It may not be us who lose next time!

Never underestimate the impact a superstar can have on a team.

Especially after Ronaldo perfectly integrated into the team, his contribution to the team is not just shown in the data.

Let’s put it this way, Ye Chen plays much more easily than last season.

One of the reasons is that Ronaldo is used to contain the opponent and serve as a fulcrum.

Now that Ronaldo is injured, everyone understands one thing - in the next game against Manchester United, all they have to do is lock down Ye Chen!

At noon of the second day after Manchester United finished the game, Manchester United's away challenge to Crystal Palace officially began.

Crystal Palace played very tenaciously in this game and persisted for more than 80 minutes.

But at the critical moment, it was still Messi's personal ability that resolved the battle.

At 84 minutes and 20 seconds, Messi got a free kick opportunity.

The golden left foot kicked the ball, and the football drew a deadly arc and went into the goal!

At the critical moment, Manchester City won three points with great difficulty thanks to the only goal scored by Messi.

After the game, Guardiola was also generous in praising Messi, "I know that many fans of many teams are waiting for us to lose, but with Messi, we have the strength to keep winning!"

"Of course, I am also looking forward to meeting Manchester United again. We may not be the ones to lose next time!"

When the media mentioned that Manchester United had been unbeaten for 48 games, Guardiola did not make a sarcastic remark, but smiled and said, "This is an incredible achievement. There are so many strong teams in the Premier League. The fact that they can achieve this shows that they are indeed very strong."

Of course, what I was thinking in my heart was – it is precisely because they are strong that defeating them would give me a greater sense of accomplishment!

Because Manchester United has two games less, Manchester City is still at the top of the Premier League.

As time goes into January, there is only one last game left in the exciting Christmas schedule.

If Manchester City can win this game, they will be the Christmas champions!

In the history of the Premier League, anyone who can win the Christmas championship has at least a 50% chance of winning the championship.

Of course, whether it is hard or not depends on the Red Army Liverpool.

Liverpool have won the Christmas title twice, but failed to win it.

The entire Manchester United seemed a little depressed because of Ronaldo's injury problems.

There were fewer smiles on the players' faces.

As the captain, Ye Chen was not idle. Instead, he encouraged his teammates with words and infected them with serious training.

However, judging from the players' feedback, Manchester United is not far from its first defeat of the new season...

The team had no time to rest.

On January 1, Manchester United boarded the bus to Liverpool.

Everyone knows that Manchester United and Liverpool are sworn enemies, and there are only two most famous teams in Liverpool, one is Liverpool and the other is Everton.

I remember when Moyes was at Everton, they could occasionally enter the European competition zone, even the Champions League zone.

It was precisely because of Moyes' outstanding performance in Everton that he was favored by Ferguson and became the new Manchester United coach.

Of course, everyone knows what happened next.

Now Everton ranks ninth in the Premier League, and the head coach is the famous Premier League coach, Allardyce, known as Big Sam.

There are also many stars in the team.

Pickford, the future goalkeeper of the Premier League, Schneiderlin who just returned from Manchester United, and Rooney, the former captain of Manchester United...

In addition, there are Premier League stars such as Lennon, McCarthy, Jagielka and Sigurdsson.

Before the game, the head coaches of both teams attended the pre-match press conference.

When Ancelotti was interviewed, he said that he liked Everton club very much and felt that there was some kind of fate between them.

However, the Ancelotti in this world went directly to Manchester United after leaving Bayern.

Instead of wasting time in Naples, he joined Everton and became the head coach of this team.

The appearance of Ye Chen has indeed changed the lives of many people!

Allardyce was very low-key. "Everyone says now is the best time to beat Manchester United, but don't forget, Ye is still here... The media is opening champagne in advance!"

His words were not only spoken here, but also to the players.

The purpose is to make the players pay full attention.

In the player tunnel before the game, Ye Chen also took the initiative to talk to Rooney.

After coming to Everton, Rooney immediately secured the position of the team's starting midfielder, and his statistics are also quite impressive.

After all, Rooney was still managing his body at that time, unlike after he retired, when he let himself go and became fat like a ball!

There are quite a lot of old acquaintances in this Everton team.

Today's starting central defender Michael Keane was Ye Chen's teammate in the youth team.

However, Ye Chen is a substitute, while Michael Keane is the absolute main force.

But they didn't spend much time together. After all, many low-level teams were eager to rent outstanding substitute players. Unlike Ye Chen, there was not even an offer for a loan.

As early as January 2015, Michael Keane was sold to Burnley by Manchester United for a transfer fee of 1 million euros.

Burnley only spent one and a half seasons and made more than 2500 million by selling the player to Everton.

He joined Everton for 2850 million euros...

Of course, Manchester United's performance in recent years has been worrying, and the head coach will definitely not give young players any chances in order to consolidate his position.

So when young players can't play, transferring away is the best option...

"Migu Sports, Migu Sports!"

"Everyone is welcome to stay in front of their computers on New Year's Eve to watch Manchester United's first game of 2018!"

"Everton host Manchester United at Goodison Park!"

"I am today's commentator Zhan Jun, and next to me is my partner Zhang Lu, Coach Zhang!"

"Hehehe, good morning everyone!" Zhang Lu's laughter was still very hearty.

Many fans have a sense of familiarity.

"This game is only one day away from Manchester United's last league game, which will be a big challenge for the physical fitness of Manchester United players."

"Okay, let's not talk too much, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams first!"

"Everton, playing at home, lined up in a 4231 formation."

"Goalkeeper Pickford."

"The four defenders are Martina, Ashley Williams, Michael Keane and Holgate!"

"The double midfielder is Schneiderlin and Tom Davies."

"Left winger Bolasie, attacking midfielder Rooney, right winger Vlasic."

"The striker is Senegalese striker Niasse."

"And Manchester United still uses a 433 formation."

"The goalkeeper is still De Gea."

"Cancelo is the left back, Rojo and Smalling are the double center backs, and Valencia is the right back."

"The three midfielders are Ronaldo, Modric and McTominay."

"Rashford on the left, Ye Chen on the forward, Bowen on the right."

"We noticed that Manchester United's players, except Ye Chen, were rotated..."

"Oh, this is also a huge drain on Ye Chen... You know, this is the World Cup year, and he may not have a chance to rest!" Zhang Lu said with a sigh.

"Although we all know that Ye Chen is a physical monster, can he really handle such frequent matches? Will he get injured like Ronaldo? Let's wait and see!"

Zhan Jun’s concerns are not without reason.

But Lina wasn't worried at all.

Today she watched the game at home with her three children——

Of course, she has the most say in Ye Chen's physical fitness.

In terms of physical fitness, he is not a monster, but a pervert!

Even better than the Chinese national football team, they can last 120 minutes...
