Chapter 381 Winning Manchester United Is No Longer News

Wan Sheng is very aware of Prince Wadel's energy, so he is not worried about the domestic public opinion situation.

As long as Prince Wadder is willing to help, with his current cooperation on behalf of the Saudi military and China, matters in public opinion are just trivial matters.

After learning what happened at the Football Association's banquet, Wan Sheng also let out a long breath. He didn't sympathize with the so-called vice-chairman at all. Since the other party wanted to deal with him, he couldn't just sit still.

After this incident, Wansheng focused on work again.

For him, all business and politics are things from afar, and he does not want to participate in it. As the head coach of Manchester City, he must first do his own coaching work.

On September 24, the seventh round of the league started. Manchester City faced Newcastle United at home. The game finally ended with a score of 3:1, and Manchester City won another round of victory.

With this round of victory, Manchester City once again topped the league table.

However, Manchester City is not very interested in this 'league top spot'. The main reason is that their points have always been the first in the league. There is nothing to celebrate when they return to the top of the league. Wansheng's thoughts are the same as the players, and they don't think it's a big deal. The honor, just symbolically say something in the media, "I'm very happy to see the team back to No. 1", "We will stick to No. 1" and so on.

The next day, the English League Cup was launched. Manchester City defeated Gillingham 3-0 with a substitute lineup and entered the next round of the League Cup.

After that, Wansheng continued to lead the team in training, preparing to face the eighth round of the league and the Manchester derby against Manchester United.

Just when Manchester City was immersed in training, Wan Sheng did not expect that the speed of change in domestic public opinion in China would be so fast. On the third day after Xie Yalong was taken away by the National Security Agency, the domestic media began to carry out crazy reports on him. .

In the past, small media could not see the situation clearly. I didn't want to report on Wansheng's affairs, lest I provoke someone, but now it's different. When I heard that Xie Yalong was taken away, no matter how much shock happened within the Football Association. It doesn't matter how 'unlucky' Xie Yalong is. But Wan Sheng must be fine.

So they resumed reporting on Wansheng.

Those big media who know the inside story are constantly touting Wansheng, it seems that they want to tout everything that fell before.

In fact it is.

In the past, Xie Yalong used the network to ask his 'friends' to help publish reports that were unfavorable to Wansheng. Many people did this. Now that Xie Yalong is unlucky, they have "magical powers". Naturally, some reasons will be inquired. In any case, this matter is inseparable from the 'suppression' of Wan Sheng.

In order to show that they were not involved, they immediately instructed the following media to report various praises to Wansheng.

"Wansheng is the first player in Chinese football's 100-year history!"

"Wan Sheng has just led Hong Kong to win the Asian Cup, and he is likely to lead Manchester City to the Champions League this season!"

"Wan Sheng is such a genius!"

"Wansheng is the backbone of Chinese football development!"

"..."

Various compliments are constantly being reported by the media.

Much of its content is basically true, but compared with the previous reports that criticized Wansheng, it feels very strange.

However, domestic fans are very happy to hear these contents, especially those fans who support Wansheng, when they see that many media praise Wansheng. They felt very proud, "Are you optimistic? Before, you all were not good at Wansheng. That was not good. I was the only one who insisted that Wansheng was good, see? Wansheng really is..."

In the constant reports of the domestic media, many people have also begun to pay attention to the upcoming Manchester derby.

—————

Before the Manchester derby, Manchester United suffered the humiliation of losing to smaller clubs.

This is not the first time.

In 2006, in the fourth round of the League Cup, Manchester United was defeated 1-0 by the League One team Southend. At that time, Rooney and Ronaldo both played, but the result? Southend relied on Eastwood's free-kick to bring the Red Devils to the ground.

In the previous year, Manchester United drew 0-0 with Exeter City (the third round of the FA Cup), and Ferguson probably did not expect that his team was almost planted in a team that was in the non-professional league system.

But Exeter City showed no signs of self-destruction in front of the giants. They even nearly scored a goal for Manchester United through Andy Taylor, a striker who had tried out at Manchester United!

Finally they won a rematch that they were very proud of.

Now, in the first round of the 2007 League Cup, Manchester United lost again.

They lost in front of their own goal, losing two goals to the British Championship team Coventry, which became one of Manchester United's rare big colds.

Although Ferguson sent most of the reserve team members, they represented Manchester United after all, and they played an official game. For two days after the game, Manchester United's loss became a topic of conversation in English football.

Manchester United's performance in recent years has not been good, but the fans' support for them is high. Some people feel that the Manchester United League Cup can attract 74,055 spectators to Old Trafford to watch the game, but what the fans see is a subversive game. In the game, a Maltese named Mifsud took Manchester United.

Even with the purpose of examining young people, such a fiasco is something that Ferguson does not want to see. Last season, it was eliminated by Southend United. What about this time?

"The Sun" commented, "Can only blame this starting Manchester United, there is no quality."

Ferguson has been impassioned to mobilize the teams participating in the League Cup. He recently read an autobiography of Bobby Charlton. Ferguson said that when Charlton was young, although he could not play games, he encouraged himself almost every day. Self: "Believe in yourself Bobby and you'll get your chance."

In Ferguson's view, Charlton's words are of great help to today's young people. "The truth is the same. First of all, be confident in yourself, and when the opportunity comes, you must seize it."

But it is very regrettable that after the transfer of 8 newcomers, the young 21-year-old Manchester United team did not seize the opportunity to play a small game with such opponents at home, which is enough to make the stands The 60,000 Manchester United fans on the board jumped in a hurry.

After the game, many people thought of the Arsenal game yesterday. Arsenal's League Cup opponent was Aston Villa, and they dispatched no less than the league's strong team, but Arsenal's team was younger The players, but they won Newcastle with a winning attitude.

Wenger only paid attention to the age of the players after the game: "Bendtner, he is only 19 years old! Traore, he is only 18 years old!"

Even the "Manchester Sports News", which has always supported Manchester United, commented after the game, "The gap between the two teams is extremely obvious. If they compete, it is absolutely reasonable for Manchester United to lose as Liverpool did last season. It is not a direct dialogue with the main players of the first team, but it means that in the training of young players, Manchester United is no longer behind Arsenal by one or two points, and there are really no people under 20 in today's lineup. In fact, how many sought-after players have been provided."

In fact, the most crucial point is the defeat of Manchester United, just before the Manchester derby.

So many media who support Manchester City have something to say. They believe that Manchester United can't beat Manchester City, and they say that Manchester City club has surpassed Manchester United in both the first team and the youth training. "Their historical results are very good, but Now they are no match for Manchester City."

"There is a gap between the first team of the two teams, including the training of the youth training."

"We can expect that this Manchester derby will still end with Manchester City winning."

"..."

In various media reports, both Manchester United and Manchester City seem to be very low-key.

Wansheng didn't say much before the game, and Ferguson didn't say anything either. Both teams seemed to be preparing for the game silently.

On September 30, the Manchester derby officially started at the Manchester Stadium.

At the beginning of this game, Manchester United chose to solidify the defense, which also made the game quite ugly. There is no doubt about the strength of Manchester United, and their defensive ability is definitely the best in Europe, but when they choose to defend with all their heart, it is difficult for Manchester City to have a good solution.

As a result, the game was dull until 80 minutes into the second half.

In the 80 minutes, neither team scored a goal. Manchester City gained some advantages in situation and statistics, but these advantages were difficult to translate into real goals.

But in the 81st minute, Manchester United still failed to keep the goal.

This time Ivan Kru has done a great job!

Wansheng was replaced by Ivan Crewe in the second half. The purpose was to increase the scoring means for the team. As a result, Ivan Crewe lived up to expectations. In the 81st minute of the game, he took advantage of a free kick in the frontcourt. The ball is kicked into the Manchester United goal.

1:0!

Manchester Stadium cheers as football flies into goal!

Wan Sheng also stood up from his seat with a smile and walked to the sidelines to celebrate wildly with others. At the same time, Ferguson on the other side looked at the rewritten score with very complicated eyes. He didn't expect that, Manchester City would still be able to. Score.

Relying on this goal, Manchester City once again won the Manchester derby.

At the post-match press conference, many reporters poured into the venue and wanted to interview Wansheng, but Wansheng didn't seem too happy to win the Manchester derby. His first words were to criticize Manchester United's conservativeness, "We Had a very bad game, the opponent defended for 90 minutes. Fortunately our players played well and scored a goal, otherwise I would have doubted that the game would have caused a psychological shadow on my players..."

After mocking Manchester United's style of play, Wan Sheng looked at the reporter and asked, "Do you want to know if I'm happy to win the Manchester derby? Maybe that's the question?"

Wan Sheng shook his head and sighed to himself, "I don't think there is anything to be happy about."

"I dare say that Manchester City's victory over Manchester United is no longer news." (To be continued ~^~)
