Chapter 184 Ignorance

Manchester United's draw is good news for Manchester City, because the two teams have the same league points, Manchester United are only two more goal difference in the league, their first place is already at stake, and then, the media is no longer talking' Manchester City is completely impossible to compete with Manchester United for the league title' similar words.

Wansheng only laughed at what happened to Manchester United.

Wan Sheng understands Ferguson's mood very well, because he has just experienced it. When Manchester City drew against Reading, the media was full of lamentations. Now it is Manchester United's turn. The Manchester United coach and the few players who performed poorly were criticized As you can imagine.

But he won't say a word for Manchester United, because the two teams are the most direct mortal enemies and competitors, and he wants Manchester United to be in a worse situation.

After the West Ham United game, the Manchester City team began to prepare for the Champions League group stage with Bayern Munich.

Up and down the team, everyone pays attention to the game.

Wansheng does not need to boost morale at all. Everyone knows that this game will be the focus of the second game of the Champions League. Manchester City is the Premier League champion last season, and Bayern Munich is the Bundesliga giant. English football and German football have always been in conflict. It can be imagined how many fans will pay attention to the team meeting. Because of this, every player on the team hopes to play in the game and will try their best to perform.

Everyone's working hard and it's keeping City's training ground full of upward momentum.

However, in the English media, they are not very optimistic about this game. Laren Smith, a famous commentator of Sky Sports, used a special comment to analyze the situation between the two teams. Not worse than Bayern Munich, but the key to playing in the Champions League is experience. In the Champions League, experience is very important. Manchester City are still too young, their manager is young, and they have no experience in leading teams to play in the Champions League. There are a lot of young players. They are all freshmen in the top league. Although they have performed well, they have little experience. This will be magnified in the Champions League. Manchester City's style of play is very technical, and the overall tactics are biased towards the Spanish team. This is not an advantage . Because Bayern Munich and the Spanish team have a lot of experience and a very good record, they just beat the Real Madrid led by Capello 2:0. So in this game, Manchester City wants to take away the points at the Olympic Stadium. not easy."

Some media also gave advice to Manchester City, "They should pay more attention to defense. Bayern Munich's firepower is good, but their ability to break through dense defenses is not very good. To be able to take a point away from the Olympic Stadium. It is also equal to a victory. This is Manchester City is totally acceptable."

There are also the most pessimistic remarks, "Wansheng should consider giving up this game. They don't have to fight against Bayern Munich on the road. If they want to qualify for the group, they should look for opportunities in Real Madrid and Sofia Levski."

These reports seem to be discouraging, as if there is no way Manchester City can beat Bayern Munich.

Wan Sheng was also annoyed by the media coverage.

Although there are not many media supporting Manchester City in England, it is the Champions League now, no matter what the media in any region should support Manchester City as an English club, right?

But these media say some depressing words!

The game hasn't even started yet. They just don't like Manchester City when the players read the news. It will definitely have some impact on their hearts, which may make them feel the strength of Bayern Munich and have a pressure to face challenges.

This is bad for the team's performance.

At the same time, Bayern Munich coach Felix Magath was also very troubled. He encountered the same thing as Wansheng.

Felix Magath played for some little-known clubs in Germany during his playing days, most notably Hamburg, where he played for ten years.

However, in the 1983 UEFA Champions League final, it was him who set the stage for the first battle, defeating the Serie A powerhouse Juventus Football Club 1-0 and winning the UEFA Champions League for Hamburg. He also played on behalf of the West Germany national team and followed The national team won the 1982 World Cup and the 1986 World Cup runner-up.

After retiring, Magath first started his coaching career in Hamburg. His early achievements were to lead Werder Bremen to defeat Bayern Munich in the German Cup final to win the cup. In 2004, Magath replaced Heathfield as the coach of Bayern Munich. .

In the two years that Magath coached, Bayern Munich won consecutive domestic league championships and cup championships. Many media exclaimed that the era of Bayern Munich's re-'domination' of Germany is coming.

However, they did not go further in the Champions League for several seasons, which made the German media very disappointed with the performance of the 'overlord' Bayern. Only five years ago, Bayern Munich, who defeated Valencia and won the Champions League trophy, can still be proud of the crowd. Today, Ballack's departure seems to have taken away their last bit of confidence. When they are about to face Manchester City, which is 'unlikely to qualify for the group' in the words of the European media, the Bundesliga giants lost their determination to win before they even fought. .

As many European media have said, "The decline of the Bundesliga can be seen from this."

In the first round, Bayern Munich defeated Real Madrid 2-0, and Bayern Munich played quite well. Unfortunately, this victory brought 3 points to Bayern Munich, but did not bring self-confidence.

This round played against Manchester City, and there was a voice of concern in Germany.

Before the game, Germany's "Football Emperor" Beckenbauer publicly criticized the team's current state, saying, "With our current performance in the league, it is very difficult for us to win against Manchester City. Our team looks like It's a newly formed team, to put it mildly, like a disorganized band."

As for the prospect of two games with Manchester City, he even predicted: "I hope we can win at home and get a point in Manchester, if so I will be very satisfied."

Although Bayern just returned to the top of the standings in the league, the poor performance of the newly-promoted Aachen team in a 2-1 victory made German public opinion full of doubts about the coach Magath. The German media agreed that it was still so difficult to deal with a newly-promoted horse. , it will be very difficult for Bayern to face Manchester City, who have performed extremely well in the league.

So before the battle between Bayern Munich and Manchester City, there was a strange scene - the English media were not optimistic about Manchester City, the German media were not optimistic about Bayern Munich, it was obviously a collision of 'Mars hitting the earth'. As a result, the two teams seemed to be brothers and sisters, neither of them were favored by their own media, but the other side's media kept praising them.

Under such circumstances, Wan Sheng and Magath were not in the mood to fight.

The two teams just collided.

......

This is not the first time Wansheng has come to the Allianz Arena in Munich, the last time was in July. He watched the World Cup with Anita. This time, it turned into leading the team to play against Bayern Munich.

The two visits were completely different.

The last time was to relax, this time to be excited, and here he will lead the team to meet the first challenge of the Champions League battlefield.

Manchester City attaches great importance to the game. Needless to say, Wansheng will take the warm-up seriously, and there is no need to say much about the warm-up before the game. Wan Sheng went to the press conference to be interviewed. There are many media reporters who came to interview, and most of them are unfamiliar faces. They are all media reporters from other countries and regions, and they all want to see the focus of this Group G battle.

Before the war, Magath didn't say much. In this game, Bayern Munich was under pressure from public opinion in Germany. The German media were not very optimistic about their ability to defeat Manchester City, so Magath wanted to use their results to speak.

But Wansheng is different.

Despite not being favoured in England, at a press conference. He still expressed his confidence in the game, "I'm standing here now. I just want to prove a fact!"

Wan Sheng raised a finger and pointed at himself, "Many people think that the most promising candidates in Group G are Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Manchester City has little hope of qualifying, but I want to prove in this game that I And Manchester City, which I lead, should be the biggest focus of Group G! It is the team that must qualify for Group G!"

Following Wan Sheng's speech, there was an uproar at the press conference.

Media reporters who didn't know Wansheng had no idea why this young Chinese man would say such things before the war, while English media who knew Wansheng looked at their colleagues with gloating.

did you see?

This is the young Chinese who has been 'running' in England for two seasons!

He has done enough harm to England, and now he is leading the team to the Champions League, so let's try it too!

Journalists from other countries obviously didn't know much about the situation, so all kinds of doubts broke out. Anyone who faced these many doubts would feel very stressed. They just wanted to use pressure to make this 'arrogant and a little too arrogant' young man. People changed their mouths to admit their mistakes, but unfortunately this is almost impossible. In the face of many doubts, Wansheng simply ignored them, and responded one by one--

"Manchester City were the Premier League champions last season!"

"The Premier League has more attention and influence than the Bundesliga, and more UEFA points!"

"Manchester City is also a century-old giant!"

"Manchester City was coached by Houllier before, now it's me! Historical achievements are completely meaningless, Manchester City is not in the past!"

"..."

These lines of speech made the reporters who asked questions vomited blood for three liters. Wan Sheng was still reasonable. Later, when a reporter analyzed from various angles to prove that 'Man City is not as good as Bayern Munich', Wan Sheng began to be unreasonable, "What? You say they're stronger? Let's see how we beat them!"

"What's the use of you talking so much?"

"Is it great that they beat Real Madrid?"

"I remember that the last time Bayern won the championship was in 2001? That's not the same team as this Bayern!"

In the end, Wan Sheng directly yelled at the reporter who asked the question, "I just want to win, what do you want?" This sentence shocked the audience and let everyone know that the young Chinese coach of Manchester City is like this. Difficult, so unreasonable, the words 'arrogant' in the mouths of the big media are very appropriate for him... No, even a little praise.

This is not arrogant, it is completely treating yourself as a god!

A young man who is less than 30 years old has just become the head coach for four years. He leads the team to get a little result, but he does not know how old he is, and thinks that all games can be won? It's just rampant in the Premier League, but still so arrogant in the Champions League?

"Ignorance!" Many major European media directly labeled Wansheng.

Wansheng didn't care about the media's evaluation at all. He cheerfully responded to the questioning media reporters, insisting that his team must be the focus and the most promising team.

In fact, he did this to decompress the team.

In the face of heavyweight competitions, many players in the team will be under pressure. They are participating in the Champions League for the first time. In such a high-profile European competition, players in the team, especially those young players, always feel the shoulders. The burden became so heavy that the entire team felt the pressure rushing in.

This is also what young teams have to face in the face of the competition, and it is also another important reason why the European media is not optimistic about Manchester City - Manchester City is too young!

Even if the strength is not worse than the opponent, the young team is definitely not as good as the opponent in many aspects such as mentality and experience. A single young player, even with outstanding skills, is difficult to show his strength in the game. Manchester City has many young players, and they have to face pressure, so it is difficult for them to show their state, so the performance of the whole team will be affected.

So Wan Sheng's purpose for doing this is obvious, he just wants to "attract" all the pressure to himself.

When the entire team hears the head coach say that in the press conference, they will know the coach's trust in the team, the trust in them, the coach is so determined to the game, what have they to be afraid of? This will make them more motivated to play and more positive to face all kinds of pressure.

This is a means of attacking the heart.

But other people don't know what Wansheng is thinking. They thought that this young man is so arrogant. The irrelevant media from other countries are just watching the excitement and releasing attractive pre-match news. As a kind of gossip joke, the media related to the two teams are different. The English media are a little 'worried' about Wansheng being so arrogant in the Champions League. The argument points this out.

The German media is very angry. Even if they think that German football has declined in recent years, an English team that has just entered the Champions League should not be so arrogant when facing Bayern Munich, the representative of German football!

In any case, the Bundesliga is still one of the top five leagues!

And Bayern Munich coach Magath, who is the protagonist of the party, also feels very depressed. He is already a very successful head coach in Europe. He leads the team of Bayern Munich, one of the European giants, and this game is at the Allianz Stadium. In the game, under his low-key circumstances, this young man became arrogant?

Is this looking down on Bayern Munich and Magath?

However, Magath is not a coach who is good at fighting words. He still insists on seeing the truth on the field. As long as he wins Manchester City, we will see what this young man has to say!
