Football Legend No. 13

"Welcome to the first round of the Premier League, I'm Zhan Junjie."

"I'm Zhang Nanlu."

"This round is Manchester City's debut after buying Bundesliga youngster Zheng Lin, what does Coach Zhang think about the £100 million transfer fee that is rumored on the Internet?"

Regarding Zhan Junjie's question, Zhang Nanlu of the older generation replied very bluntly.

"I don't believe Manchester City directly spent £100 million on the transfer fee, on the contrary, I think the young player spent the transfer fee around £7,000W, which is also an extremely high price;

As for his ability to adapt to the Premier League, I think his quality is enough, he needs some games to adapt to the pace of the Premier League.

"Okay, let's talk about some questions about Zheng Lin here, everyone is clear about the squad of the two sides, Pellegrini is a 442 formation this time, Zheng Lin and Fernandinho partner in midfield, the two wingbacks are Keylor Navas, David Silva, the back line is also expected, Aguero and Dzeko form a double striker."

As for Newcastle United, they are as always 4231, which is not surprising.

They are not surprised by Zheng Lin's midfield combination with Fernandinho, who in Zhan Junjie's eyes is the best configuration for Manchester City at the moment.

Are you going to say replace Zheng Lin?

If you replace him, what does Manchester City pay a lot of money to buy people for? See the water dispenser?

The best way is to adapt him quickly to the pace of the Premier League, so that the fans can see his value, otherwise he thinks this public opinion can crush people!

'At the beginning of the game, it was Newcastle United who chose to attack first.

Krull kicked off first.

The ball quickly recoiled at the foot of the back of the double, where Hofs and Thiott were currently organizing.

This situation is expected by Pellegrini, if he gives up the first attack, then for Newcastle United, they will naturally stabilize first, will not attack rashly, and even tempt their side to make mistakes first.

On this issue, Pellegrini stressed in advance that the back line must be focused, because the midfielders in front of you will not necessarily help you in the first place, you must cheer yourself up.

Gufran, Ben Alpha, and single-arrow striker Papis-Cisse began to infiltrate.

Manchester City's defensive leader, Vincent Kompany, took the initiative on the pitch to remind his teammates to pay attention to the position of their players, and these actions made Pellegrini feel more at ease, and from the pre-match training camp, Manuel Kompany convinced Pellegrini that he could support the defense.

The only thing that worries Pellegrini is Kompany's health.

...... ......

Moussa Sissoko retreated to receive a pass from Thiott, who glanced at it and sent a straight ball straight away.

Ben Alpha retreated a little from the right to receive a pass, and with a feint move to get rid of Keylor Navas's entanglement, he strode forward.

After Navas lost his first position, he kept biting with speed, not allowing Ben Alpha to use speed to create chances.

This kind of touchline racing made Manchester City uncomfortable, but it did not give Newcastle United a advantage.

After Ben Alpha's smash, he crossed the ball laterally to find Moussa Sissoko, who came up.

The idea was good, and the ball was also passed, but the diagonal stab killed Zheng Lin, and he predicted this pass.

"Good ball! Zheng Lin judged the right passing route, he got the ball, and Manchester City instantly turned defense into attack!

"Zheng Lin's long pass went directly to David Silva, and after David Silva had a beautiful unload, he was only facing Yanga Mbiwa and Steven Taylor behind him."

Facing two defenders, David Silva made a croquette motion that caused Yanga Mbiwa to lose his position.

"Foul! Janga dragged David Silva behind him, this is in the box, this can't escape a yellow dot package! "

The foul on Yanga Mbiwa's choice doesn't mean there's a problem with him, it's just that there's a problem with the timing of the choice.

Foul from behind, this if it is outside the box, it is not a big problem, give a set-piece, at the moment David Silva stepped on the box, he caught up and put down the opponent directly, this is a problem!

This is a penalty for nothing!

The foul in the box was too obvious and the referee gave Janga Mbiwa a yellow card directly while pointing in the direction of the penalty spot.

David Silva, who got up from the ground, let out a breath, this pull, affected the rhythm of his breathing, but this penalty was a bit unexpected, from the breakthrough just now, he really didn't notice this position, he was ready to pass.

This penalty was a real bonus.

"Just six minutes into the game, Manchester City got a penalty in a breakaway, and this Newcastle United defender gave a big gift for nothing, it depends on whether the Manchester City players can laugh!"

David Silva, at Dzeko's gesture, walked to the 12-yard line.

He looked at Krull, the opposing goalkeeper, took a deep breath, ran rhythmically, and then hit the goal!

"Scored, David Silva scored the football steadily."

'With City leading by one goal just six minutes into the game, they have too many options left!

"Yes, if Manchester City are going to play defensively and counter-attacking now, I can understand, after all, I have an advantage, why can't I take advantage of it?"

As soon as Zhang Nanlu's words came out, Zhan Junjie couldn't help but laugh, yes, why can't the team take advantage of this advantage after leading by one goal?

But the Pellegrini he knows is not such a person, and if nothing else, he will still choose to play against the attack.

Judging from the long pass just now, Zhan Junjie believes that there is nothing wrong with Manchester City's purchase personnel, this is the first goal he took the initiative to participate in the attack, and a young player has a good defensive prediction, these are counted together, spending a fifty million pounds is not a big problem.

But this is Manchester City, an upstart in the eyes of others, there will inevitably be some premium, if you really say that this is a hundred million bought, he does not believe it, unless there is a floating clause in it.

The game resumes.

At this time, Newcastle United's player organization was once again at the feet of Moussa Sissoko, one of Newcastle's main playmakers.

He didn't want to lose this game, although there was a gap in strength, but football is round, who knows if he doesn't fight?

Sissoko pushed forward with the ball, he was unhurried, knowing that he could not rush at this time, this game has just begun, the more anxious the easier it is to make mistakes, once it goes wrong, then it is facing Manchester City's rapid counterattack!

By the way, Sissoko glanced at Manchester City's double midfield, if you want to pick a soft persimmon pinch, then isn't there one in front of you?

Mr. 100 million pounds, that's him!

Zheng Lin is a left midfielder position at Manchester City, he watched Sissoko lean directly to the left, he didn't think much and went straight up.

At this time, it was Moussa Sissoko, the organizational core of Newcastle United, against Zheng Lin, the most expensive man in Manchester City.
