Chapter 83 Ten Consecutive Victories
When the football flew into the goal, the entire Manchester City fans began to celebrate the victory.
This victory is meaningful.
One is that because the opponent is Liverpool, there is a deep hatred between Manchester United and Liverpool. Every victory over Liverpool will make Manchester fans feel refreshed. More importantly, this is Manchester City's tenth consecutive victory in the league - - Ten consecutive victories!
A ten-game winning streak in the Premier League is an incredible achievement!
Since the establishment of the Premier League, the holder of the highest winning streak is Arsenal, who staged a 14-game winning streak in the 2001/2002 season and 2002/2003 season respectively.
Ten-game winning streak and 14-game winning streak, the difference is only four games, Manchester City still has hope to catch up.
For most Manchester City fans, history doesn't need to be considered too much, they just need to know that the team has won 10 consecutive victories, and this 10 consecutive victories are enough for them to celebrate as a championship. Now that the team has dominated Chelsea and occupies the top spot in the league, they can also look forward to the next league title at the same time.
Manchester City fans were very excited, and before the game was over, the stadium's celebrations had been resounding non-stop.
Liverpool's mood is diametrically opposite.
They don't want to hear their opponents celebrating, especially now that the game is not over, it's almost a slap-slap-slap in the face to their left and right, but they can't do anything about it, because they are three goals behind, And there's not much time left.
Even if they 'return to Istanbul' now, they will not have much confidence because there are too few games.
A lot of players just want the game to be over as soon as possible.
Liverpool coach Benitez is not the kind of coach who is good at cheering up players. He sat on the coaching bench and watched the game silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
He did nothing.
On the other hand, in front of the Manchester City coach. Wan Sheng was standing on the sidelines, waving his arms and shouting loudly.
Several cameras hurriedly pointed to the past, and the sound was only captured when the distance was close.
"Attention! Back off! Don't give them a chance! The game isn't over yet!"
The loud roar was refreshing.
Sky TV commentator George Woodgate commented with a smile, "Wansheng really didn't give their opponents any chance. They all took a 3-0 lead."
"However. His approach is worth learning from many coaches. Even if the game is almost over, even if there is not much time left, he still commands the game seriously, reminding everyone not to be careless and not to give opponents a chance."
"This serious attitude towards the game may also be an important factor in his success."
"..."
Wan Sheng didn't know what the commentator said about him, he just conducted the game normally. Especially when it's almost over. It is easy for players to slack off on the field, thus giving the opponent a chance.
It's better to lead 3-0 now, but in other games, when the team is leading 1-0, the team is easy to relax. He has to remind the players at the end of each game to be serious, so that they can get used to playing. The game ends instead of always 'ending the game' early.
Just like that time passed.
In the 89th minute of the game. There was a notable scene in the stand on the east side of the stadium, and many Manchester City fans sang neatly. The lyrics sound simple--
"Wan Sheng, you are like the incarnation of God,
You lead Manchester City forward,
Defeat all opponents!
forward! forward!
Manchester City! Manchester City! "
The simple lyrics and tunes quickly went viral and many City fans sang along, and soon they could be heard all over the stadium.
Although the song is not very good, the song specially sung for Wan Sheng is still very interesting.
Wan Sheng was also moved when he heard the voice in his ears, which represented the recognition of Manchester City fans for him. He turned to look at the fans stand, stretched out his arms and waved at the fans around, and his voice grew louder.
Just then the game was almost over.
The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the entire Manchester Stadium went into a frenzy. The stands around the stadium became a sea of cheers, and the Manchester City players on the pitch also embraced each other and celebrated.
The game is over.
Manchester City beat Liverpool 3-0 at home, marking a ten-game winning streak.
...
After the game, Benitez still came to shake hands with Wansheng in a very gentlemanly manner. In this regard, the Spaniard is indeed much more graceful than his opponents such as Ferguson and Mourinho. Even if he loses the game ugly, he He maintained his demeanor, but there was no smile on his face.
Wan Sheng also shook hands with Benitez, but his words were not very pleasant. "I think Robbie Fowler will definitely stay here. If you want to make up your mind, you'd better go elsewhere!"
It's really hard for him to be polite to guys who poach their own players.
After hearing this, Benitez's face darkened. After shaking hands with Wan Sheng, he turned around and walked over. He really didn't have the face to continue to say anything, because it was indeed himself who was exposed to poach players in private.
Wan Sheng looked at Benitez's back, the corners of his mouth raised.
If you think this is the end, you are wrong! If you dare to hit his player's idea, you must be mentally prepared to be exposed!
Soon the post-match press conference began.
Wan Sheng appeared at the venue for the first time. Facing the gathering of reporters, he directly talked about what the media were most concerned about before the game, "I reiterate once again that the club will definitely pursue the players who have privately contacted us with Liverpool!" His voice Sonically and forcefully, "We will continue to appeal to the FA and submit questions to the players' union. I don't think they will allow this kind of thing to happen again and again!"
Happened, referring to the things that Benitez poached Robbie Fowler, which happened frequently, which refers to what Chelsea have done for more than a year.
Chelsea frequently poached young talents from various clubs. The thing is, all of them came forward to the youth training director, and Mourinho, as the head coach, never came forward, so this incident had little impact on the Chelsea first team.
Both UEFA and the FA keep reiterating to 'try to avoid' this. And deal with each one seriously, but in fact, there are not many means they can really use, but at least the fine is quite severe.
Now it's a bit embarrassing for Benitez to come out and meet the players in private.
After talking about Liverpool and Robbie Fowler. A reporter immediately asked about the end of the game. The issue of Manchester City fans singing for Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng took this almost pilgrimage-style worship very lightly, he just smiled slightly and said, "I prefer the fans to support the entire team, not a single individual. I like some of their songs. But I'd rather see the fans cheering the team up. Sometimes the fans should do it even if the team isn't doing well. I think the two sides are interactive and the team's performance can inspire the fans , the fans should also inspire the team."
Then talking about the team's ten-game winning streak, Wan Sheng said happily, "If you asked me at the beginning of the season if I had the confidence to lead the team to the league championship, I would definitely answer 'yes'. But if you ask me if I can To lead the team to a ten-game winning streak, I would be hesitant. Because it's not easy to do."
"Now that we have done it, I'm very happy and I hope the team can continue their winning streak."
Hearing Wan Sheng's words, a reporter immediately asked him if he had the confidence to lead the team to break Arsenal's 14-game winning streak, and Wan Sheng smiled, "I never thought of recording anything, but I think that it will always give me a chance to win. Team pressure, it's not good for the game. But if we have a chance to break, why not try? So my answer is 'yes' and we'll fight for it."
Wan Sheng is also encouraging himself.
Season winning streak mission, 15 winning streaks will give you the maximum experience point reward, but he has never received it, and last season was only half ended. He was eager to level up and did not pursue it, but now even if he submits ten consecutive winning streaks Even if you win the mission, you will not be able to accumulate the experience needed to level up, so why not fight for it?
10 consecutive victories, 15 consecutive victories away, but only five games!
If you can lead the team to 15 consecutive victories, you will break Arsenal's record of 14 consecutive victories by the way. That is just for the sake of it. Wansheng doesn't care about any record. In many people's eyes, this is very meaningful, but in fact, There is no trophy for breaking records, no experience, no benefit at all, no practical significance at all.
Next, Wansheng talked about the performance of various players in the game, he mainly praised Robbie Fowler and Morris, "Everyone's performance is very good, but if I find something to praise, I have to Speaking of Robbie and Lee, they've been in really good form lately and I hope they stick with it."
...
After the press conference, Wan Sheng returned to the locker room.
Because it was a home game, the players did not rush to pack their luggage, but made a mess in the locker room. When Wansheng walked in, Joey Barton was spraying beer everywhere, making the locker room a mess.
Wan Sheng made a light 'hum' before everyone noticed it, and hurriedly sat down and quieted down. It was obvious that they wanted to hear a few words from the head coach.
Wansheng complied with their demands.
"How does it feel to win 10 in a row?" he asked.
"Great!" Many people shouted in response.
As the league goes on one game after another, and the team wins one after another, his reverence among the players has already increased a lot. For example, the reverence of ordinary players for him has reached or exceeded 80. Point, only a few are below 80, but they are very close, which means that the whole team recognizes his coaching ability, and his prestige in the team has also improved a lot.
"Yes, great, and I feel great too!"
"To be honest, at the beginning of the season, I thought about leading the team to win the championship, but I didn't think we could win 10 straight games, which was beyond my expectations, and I said the same to those reporters just now. But think about it, It’s nothing to us to achieve the results we are now. Each of you is very good. You have gone through hard training. The current results are the results of our efforts, but this is not the final result. If we want the final result, we must persevere until the end. Row!"
"Then tell me, what is our ultimate goal?"
Wan Sheng asked loudly.
"Championship!" Immediately, a player answered.
"That's right, it's the champion!" Wan Sheng stood up and waved his arms, "Our ultimate goal is the champion! We put in a lot of hard work, in the summer, in the usual training, all these efforts are for the champion!"
"Now, I believe that no team can stop us! Chelsea, no! Other teams, even less! I hope you will also have this idea, and then in the next game, try your best to defeat each opponent, Until the end of the championship!"
Wansheng's voice was deafening, and everyone felt their blood boil.
At the beginning of the season, they would have thought the coach was crazy, but now they just feel the resonance, because they think so too, they feel a power in their hearts!
The team is already No. 1 in the league, and the team has won ten consecutive league victories. As the coach said, there is no team that can stop them!
They will definitely win the championship!
...
The next day, all the media concerned about the Premier League were reporting on Manchester City's ten-game winning streak, while in Manchester, the only content reported by the sports media was this. Manchester City beat Liverpool 3-0 and won the league's ten-game winning streak. amazing.
Every media covering the game is talking about the details of the game.
The topic of the season, the strength of Manchester City, the outstanding performance of Robbie Fowler, the songs that fans sang for Wansheng during the game, etc., each topic caused a set of routines, and the media reporters used a wonderful pen to describe the game It's like a blockbuster of the century.
This is another scenario in Liverpool.
Many media criticized Liverpool's frontcourt performance. Crouch was among the main critics. He almost disappeared throughout the game. Other Liverpool players also won the lottery. Benitez's tactics were also questioned. The media directly Pointing out, "Liverpool played ugly and lost the game!"
Liverpool and Benitez are under pressure from the media.
Their pressure did not stop there. On the second day of the game, the FA investigation team had already concluded that the Liverpool Club had privately contacted Robbie Fowler, and the final penalty was a fine of 300,000 pounds and a serious A warning once, which means that if the crime is committed again, the punishment will involve things on the field.
The punishment is quite severe.
If there is a list of fines, this amount is enough to be in the top ten in history, but obviously this is only the result of a three-way discussion, because the matter did not involve the coach Benitez, and Liverpool did not appeal, Directly and decisively paid the fine.
This matter is over.
But at the same time, Wansheng is also doing a similar thing... (To be continued ~^~)
