Football Legend No. 13

In the third round of the League Cup on 23 September, Manchester City beat Sunderland 4-1 away to advance to the next round.

Manchester City, who have moved to the league, will face their first strong opponent in the seventh round of the league.

On 26 September, Manchester City visited White Hart Street to face Tottenham.

In the end, after 90 points, the two sides drew 4-4.

A typical goal battle, with both sides presenting a wonderful goal battle for the fans on the scene.

In the group stage of the Champions League on 1 October, Manchester City, who lost the first game, faced Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga, and they showed their rhythm.

Manchester City suppressed the opponent with 67% of the possession, and all other statistics except fouls and offsides suppressed Borussia Mönchengladbach.

In the end, Manchester City won the game 3-1 away and also ushered in the first win of the group.

The current group points are

: 1, Juventus: 6 points 2, Manchester City: 3 points 3, Sevilla: 3

points 4, Borussia Mönchengladbach: 0 points

There is still a chance for revenge for Manchester City,

who will respond to the loss of the first game with a win away to Juventus

.

Back in the league, Manchester City beat Newcastle United 5-0 in the eighth round.

The 6-1 win over Bournemouth in the ninth round was a good overall performance and gave the impression that they were already warming up for the Manchester derby.

Manchester United also had a two-win and one-loss record in these three league rounds, with the only losing game against Arsenal, who lost 3-0.

At this time, Arsenal also gives people the feeling that they are going to rise strongly, but this is only a feeling, depending on their schedule at the tail of the league.

They have not had such performances before, before the winter window, Arsenal were fierce, and after the winter transfer window closed, the whole state could not bear to look directly!

Before the 10th round of the Premier League begins, the third round of the Champions League group stage begins.

Manchester City, who will host Sevilla, are also ready to face teams who have smashed up in the Europa League, and they know that the group stage is also the most vulnerable to upset.

In order to go further in the Champions League, they will go all out to grab the top spot in the group, especially after losing to Juve in the first game.

Since they are already passive, as long as they do not make mistakes and wait for others to make mistakes, then they still have a chance!

On 22 October, the third round of Group D of the group stage was marked by four teams playing at the same time.

The final result made Manchester City overjoyed!

Juventus actually drew Borussia Mönchengladbach, which means that Manchester City, who have already won Sevilla, have regained some of the initiative.

With just one point away from the top of the table, Manchester City will naturally take advantage of the fourth round away from home, still Sevilla.

Manchester City, back in the league, are ready.

The match at the Theatre of Dreams is crucial for them, and the biggest wish of Manchester City fans is for Manchester United to welcome the champion-winning Manchester City team at the Theatre of Dreams!

It's hard to achieve, but it doesn't stop him from dreaming of becoming a Manchester City fan.

Van Gaal, who is playing at home, also listed his starting lineup early, apparently he believes that the two sides have little difference in the ability of the players, and the next thing is the restrictions on the formation, and the targeted defense of the opposing players.

Manchester United play 4231, their formation is as follows

: [Forwards: Rooney

Forwards: Martial, Herrera, Mata

back: Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger

Defenders: Rojo, Smalling, Phil Jones, Antonio Valencia

Goalkeeper: De Gea

substitutes: Jesse Lingard, Fellaini, Depay, Carrick, etc.].

And Pellegrini seems to have wanted to play tactically with Van Gaal, and the starting lineup did not stay long;

[Forwards: Boni

forwards: Raheem Sterling, De Bruyne, Zheng Lin

Back: Fernandinho, Moussa Sissoko

Defenders: Kolarov, Otamendi, Kompanyi, Sarnia

goalkeepers: Joe Hart substitutes:

Demichelis, Iheanacho, Mangala, Zabaleta, etc.]

For Pellegrini, Manchester United's biggest reliance is their captain Wayne Rooney and Michael Carrick on their bench.

In the eyes of Pellegrini, Carrick can become an excellent coach after retirement, according to the DNA preferences of the big teams, the probability of the midfielder coaching Manchester United in the future is quite large!

As for the others?

For Pellegrini, playing at Manchester United is either not strong enough, some are too "old", and it may not be easy to deliver good performances.

Especially when he learned that Ashley Young would not fight, he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The winger impressed him deeply, and I have to say that the old man's eye on people is sometimes really vicious.

......

Van Gaal stared at Manchester City's squad, he regretted it a little at this time, so that the announcement made Pellegrini not add any trouble, but made him feel a little big!

From the list, they have two guys in the midfield who pass very well, and it is really a bit of a death to limit them.

From the left side of Sterling, Mata's ability to play the ball can make up for part of it, the focus is on the back position!

Schweinsteiger is not known for his speed, he is already "old" at this time, and it may be a little difficult to catch up with a player like Raheem Sterling, who is known for his speed.

Rojo's defense on the left should not be a big problem, but it may be a little difficult to step forward to attack, and Martial, the golden boy, will not choose to defend, so he can only let Herrera go.

Then it is up to Martial and Herrera to call and count on Martial to defend, which is better than counting on this guy to harass the organization's De Bruyne.

So be it, I won't lose!

......

As one of the most attractive derbies in the Premier League, they are less popular than the Double Reds, the North London derby, etc., but they are one of the most attractive in Manchester.

As neighbours, they represent different classes in Manchester, which is one of the points of conflict between them.

One of the most notable is that after the era of Ferguson, Manchester United fans would not have thought that Manchester City would be Manchester City's opponent, even though they have already won the Premier League.

But for the name of Manchester City, it is still - nouveau riche!

And that blue team, with the full support of their owners, they have gradually shed the title of nouveau riche, and by this time the blues have become the new giants.

Blue Moon Manchester City want to become the new giant, then winning the Champions League trophy is indispensable!

But will it be so easy now?
