Golden Greenery

The Italian timber tycoon Pozzo family once owned three clubs: Udinese in Serie A, Granada in La Liga and Watford in English League One. At the beginning, Udinese was the core of the three teams, with Granada and Watford basically belonging to its satellite teams.

However, as the Italian economy continues to slump, the Serie A class solidifies, and the Spanish economy deteriorates, La Liga has completely entered the era of football oligarchy. The relatively prosperous United Kingdom and the Premier League have become the most attractive places, and the latest Watford has become A favorite of the Pozzo family.

This year, Ranada was sold to Chinese businessman Jiang Lizhang, leaving Udinese to be self-reliant and self-destructive. The center of the football industry has completely shifted to the Premier League Watford.

However, the Pozzo family is not oil robes, nor are they Russian oligarchs or American financial libertines. The way they invest in football is, at best, rational, but at worst, it is misers who operate on a small budget. Therefore, Watford is not rich and wealthy. After the Premier League, it is still considered a relegation team.

Watford is nicknamed the ‘Bumblebee’, but Dortmund’s Hornet is so famous that it has basically become the pride of English football. Moreover, the Watford team emblem clearly shows the head of a stag, but it is quite far-fetched to call it a bumblebee just because it is half yellow.

Three days after losing to Leicester City in an away game, Manchester City ushered in this far-fetched hornet at home, in the 16th round of the Premier League, Watford.

Aguero and Fernando are still suspended. Iheanacho, Stones and Fernando, who had the worst performance three days ago, are on the bench. But Bravo, who is also a bad player, cannot be replaced. Fortunately, Ota Mendy can play.

Toure and Sterling, who performed well after coming off the bench that day, started today. Guardiola sent Nolito at the front, which felt like he was trying his luck.

Watford's current head coach is 55-year-old Italian Walter Mazzarri, known as Marshal Ma in Apennine football circles.

Marshal Ma became famous in the year when Zhuo Yang first went to AC Milan, 2 Reggina. That year, due to the "Calciopoli", Juventus was relegated and AC Milan was deducted 8 points. In fact, there is Reggina, they are also miserable, starting the new season with -11 points.

At first, it was thought that Reggina had contracted a relegation spot in advance, but at the end of the season, Mazzarri's team ranked 14th and successfully landed, known as 'the best relegation in history'.

In fact, that year

Since then, Mazzarri has attracted the attention of big Serie A teams and wealthy clubs. He has done very well in Sampdoria and Naples. Only after Moratti retired, Inter Milan left Maicheng.

At the end of last season, Spanish coach Enrique Flores was fired due to disagreements with Watford's top management. Giampaolo Pozzo, the head of the Pozzo family, personally invited Mazzarri, who was unemployed at home, to join the Hornets.

After the first 15 rounds, Watford is in seventh place and is not easy to mess with.

After the game started, Watford turned away and took the lead in launching the offensive. In the 4th minute, they passed a cross from the right by Moroccan Amrabat. Yaya Toure made the first clearance, but was hit by French midfielder Cap. Ai took a long shot.

Zhuoyang was absent-minded on the bench, thinking about the draw for the Champions League knockout rounds.

Yesterday in Nyon, Switzerland, UEFA conducted the 201 lottery, and sports director Begiristain went there on behalf of Manchester City.

Manchester City's opponent was drawn to French Ligue 1 Monaco by Dutch legend Ruud Gullit, the Monaco that was formerly chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Ergul.

Manchester City is second in the group, in the same group and under the principle of avoidance. Among the five possible group firsts, Monaco is considered to be in the top spot. Gullit's hand opened the door for Manchester City, successfully avoiding Napoli, Atletico Madrid, Dortmund and Juventus.

Real Madrid, Bayern, and Paris are also second in the group, and their luck is a bit worse. Real Madrid faces Naples, Albiol and Moto Callejon can finally return to the Bernabeu.

Bayern is going head-to-head with Arsenal, and Paris Saint-Germain is the worst. Their opponent is Barcelona, ​​who is in trouble.

Leicester City and UEFA Cup champion Sevilla are locked in a battle, while another Premier League team, Tottenham Hotspur, was squeezed into third place by Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen in the group stage.

The media are generally not optimistic about the prospects of English teams in the Champions League this year, because the three most capable teams in Europe - Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea - are all absent this season, and Arsenal, Manchester City and Leicester City are sidelined. Compared with the three veterans of the European war, their confidence is obviously not enough.

Judging from the three 1/8 matchups this year, the media is still the most optimistic about Manchester City's promotion. After all, except for Paris Saint-Germain, other teams in Ligue 1 have lost their courage, and Monaco seems to be no exception.

Although Monaco is no longer the team of the Grimaldi royal family, the dispute between Zhuoyang and Ergul has not yet been resolved. Don't think that the real culprit Sharma has been caught, and you, the useless snack prince, can get away with it.

After Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou discussed it, they already had a revenge plan, which will be implemented this month. Your Highness, I hope you are brave enough, and I hope you are not afraid of bloodshed.

.

When Zhuoyang was traveling around the world, the deadlock on the field was broken.

In the 33rd minute, Nolito scored the ball in the middle, De Bruyne passed from the left, and captain Zabaleta scored from the near corner with a sweep from behind. Manchester City 1:0.

Zhuoyang has some impressions of Watford No. 7 Amrabat. This guy has played for Galatasaray and Malaga before. Zhuoyang played against him several times when he was in Real Madrid. He is a good player on the wing. And the style is very tough.

In the 35th minute, in order to defend Amrabat's breakthrough, Gundogan collided hard with each other, and then Gundogan fell to the ground in pain. Although he continued to play after simple treatment by the team doctor, the German only lasted a few minutes before falling to the ground in pain again. Guardiola could only replace him with Fernando in the 44th minute.

There is really nothing to say about the game. Manchester City always takes it easy at home. Zhuoyang replaced Nolito in the 78th minute and everything went according to plan.

In the 8th ball counterattack, Zhuoyang took the ball in the frontcourt and split the ball. Sterling knocked across the left side of the penalty area. Silva outflanked the center and pushed the goal. Manchester City 2:0.

Manchester City smoothly won the first news. Gundogan underwent a preliminary diagnosis and the results showed that his right knee cruciate ligament was completely torn. If diagnosed, Gundogan will at least rest which means he will miss the rest of the season.

This position is an old injury for Gundogan, and it is because of this that he missed the 2014 World Cup and this year's European Championship.

In recent years, Gundogan has always performed brilliantly for half a season and can compete for the Ballon d'Or. However, he has been plagued by injuries for half a season and has fallen into a sluggish state. From the Bundesliga to the Premier League, it seems that he still hasn't escaped this 'curse'.

Originally, the team's waist was not strong, but now Guardiola's head was filled with worry and he looked like a Tathagata.
