Chapter 1058: Taking Back the Blame
? For the giants who have the task of the Champions League, the season has entered the fast lane. In the last two weeks of September, Notts County needs to play a total of five games, which is extremely intensive and tense.
In the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Notts County went to an away game to challenge Dynamo Kyiv. Although it was an away game, the opponent was afraid of being intimidated by Notts County. They assumed a conservative posture at the beginning and completely handed over the initiative to Notts. In the hands of the county, the Magpie will naturally not disappoint the opponent's good intentions. In the first half, they broke the opponent's unprofessional iron barrel formation through fast and smooth small-scale cooperation. After winning two consecutive cities in the second half, they simply showed mercy. There is a tacit agreement to end the game.
In fact, due to the strength and incomparability of Notts County, many opponents will choose to surrender when facing Notts County, so as to preserve their vitality, and Notts County will naturally not kill them all. acceptable results.
Invisibly, this allows Notts County to reduce consumption in many games, coupled with frequent rotations, this is why Notts County can maintain a stable state during the season.
After returning to England from Ukraine, Notts County immediately started preparing for the league match against Tottenham. After a season of training, Tottenham are preparing to make a big difference in the new season. At least winning the Champions League is their basic goal. For such An opponent is still playing away, Notts County will not be careless.
Before the game, Murdoch Jr. had a good fight with David. Although David didn't think the joke was funny, the other party was extremely serious.
But in the game, Tottenham really caused a lot of trouble for Notts County. The high-pressure pressing that was exactly the same as Notts County's tactics made Notts County's offense run smoothly. .
Since Notts County has just finished a Champions League group match, the long journey and the consumption of the game, Heynckes excluded half of the main players from the squad, and several other main players also sat on the bench. Simply comparing the lineup on the field, Notts County does not have any advantage at all.
Cazorla, who used to be from Notts County, broke out in the game. One pass and one shot helped Tottenham lead 2:0 in the first half. For Tottenham, this score is really full of happiness.
You know, last season Tottenham had almost no resistance in front of Notts County. They were beaten in two rounds and almost lost confidence. However, Notts County has maintained a strong momentum since the start of this season. Now Tottenham can take the lead , How could it not excite them!
However, after the intermission Haishuai made adjustments, Notts County showed their tenacity and control of the game to the fullest. Lewandowski, who came off the bench in the second half, scored twice to equalize the score. Thiago Silva Notts County made it out of White Hart Lane with a header from a corner just before the break.
After the game, Murdoch Jr. shared his emotions with David,
Tottenham could have won, but Notts County were still blessed by God.
Chelsea failed to stop Notts County's progress, and neither could Tottenham. Notts County, which defeated Tottenham, continued to maintain their lead in the standings, as if this was what it should have been.
In the next League Cup, Notts County played away against the Championship team Ipswich Town. This club was able to do something in the Premier League a few seasons ago, and even ranked in the middle and upper reaches of the standings to enter the League Cup. , but after that, it quickly slipped, and now it is difficult to rank in the middle of the British Championship.
In this game, Notts County sent some youth players and some substitute players. Even if such a lineup is adopted, the opponent will not be able to make much waves. Even if they play at home, they will be caught obediently.
This season, because of their excellent form and the absence of the Club World Cup, Notts County will not easily give up the League Cup and FA Cup games, at least not for now, and maybe wait until the schedule is intensive and encounter other accidents. There may be changes, at least for now, Notts County's goal, as rumored by public opinion, is five crowns.
After finishing the League Cup in the middle of the week, they will return to the league immediately on the weekend. The opponents of Notts County in this game still do not look very easy to deal with.
After the local tyrants from the Middle East took over, Manchester City’s strength can be said to have undergone a radical change after spending a lot of money in the transfer market in the summer. Although the team’s tactical system does not seem to have been established yet, relying on the performance of the stars, the results are still very good. , three wins, one draw and one loss, ranking sixth in the league, it can be said that they have not been left behind by other teams in the Premier League BIG7.
But David doesn't think Manchester City can do much this season, because they don't even have a stable environment.
I don't know if it was because he was dissatisfied with Fahim's work in Manchester City. Sheikh Mansour, the real head of the Abu Dhabi consortium, replaced Fahim and helped Mubarak become the chairman of Manchester City.
After Eriksson left, Mark Hughes took over the coaching seal, but Manchester City's top management does not seem to like the interim coach, and he may be replaced at any time.
Even a stable environment cannot be guaranteed for the time being, so how can it be expected that Manchester City will have a stable result? Once a new coach takes office, overthrow and restart, a new coach and a new lineup, I am afraid that Manchester City will need to adapt for a while, maybe wait a while. They are done adapting, and the other teams have already finished the sprint!
It is said that the local tycoons in the Middle East have taken a fancy to Arsenal coach Wenger. Although Arsenal have not performed well in the past few seasons, it is not all the French’s problem. The team’s lack of money is the key. The previous Arsenal was under Wenger’s control , but the most favorable contender for the Premier League title.
No matter how much Manchester City struggled and how much the outside world praised, David did not take the Manchester City in front of him too seriously, and the facts proved that David's arrogance was right.
Notts County, who sits at home, taught Manchester City a good lesson. To illustrate with facts, money is not everything. Maybe in the long run, money will lead to development, but money can’t buy the immediate future. At least this game In the game, Manchester City was beaten without temper.
Messi and Villa jointly contributed three goals, Alonso also scored from long range, coupled with Ramos' header, Notts County beat Manchester City with five goals at home.
This was at the end of the second half when Notts County were merciful, otherwise Manchester City, which was already a little bit broken at that time, might not have conceded many goals!
Mubarak's face was gloomy when he left the Magpies Stadium. David felt that Mubarak would have to take his anger out on the coach Mark Hughes in the future. Someone must take the blame for Manchester City's fiasco!
