After this game, Silva determined that he had a knee ligament injury, and was finally diagnosed with a minor surgery, and the time of absence is uncertain, after Silva joined Manchester City, he was injured, resulting in Silva's speed and explosiveness are not as good as before, he began the road of transformation, becoming an organizational forward player, after the arrival of Wen Sheng, Manchester City advocated an oppressive style of play more often, which gave Silva room to play, Even on the wings, he doesn't need to rely too much on speed to become a key player for Manchester City.

In addition to Silva, the big player in the backline, Kompany, also needs to be out for three weeks due to a waist injury, and the first round of the new season has not yet started.

On the 17th, St James' Park on the banks of the River Tyne finally ushered in the first game of the new season, and they will face the opponent of the quadruple winner Manchester City.

Newcastle had a surprising finish in the first half of last season under Padew, but in the second half of the season, Newcastle pulled their hips and ended up in the middle of the table.

Padew is actually not very old, but he is in his early 50s, but now he is full of hair, many years of Premier League coaching experience, Padu's level is still there, and the French team he built for Newcastle is an important reason why Newcastle have been able to stay in the middle of the table in recent seasons.

Pardew was also wiser in this game, he did not choose to rush with Manchester City, and from the Charity Shield game, Pardew saw that the hedged Manchester City was also a very dangerous opponent, and the midfielder had a strong ability to move the ball quickly.

Parde's tactics were very targeted, he strengthened the midfield position, with the main purpose of encircling De Bruyne, but the wings were slightly opened up by him, and the penalty area was densely defended.

De Bruyne played hard and hard to score, Silva did not start, Wensheng used a combination of Casemiro and Dembele in the midfield, Dembele could not cover De Bruyne well, and occasionally the dribbling in the midfield was eye-catching enough, but he did not handle the passing link well.

"Manchester City are in big trouble!" The game lasted more than 60 minutes, Manchester City failed to break through Newcastle's door, but Newcastle's counterattack was impressive. Darker said bluntly in the live broadcast.

'They were really fast, but there was too little coordination up front, De Bruyne was looked at very badly, and the pass was not comfortable! Costa and Chamberlain on both wings will only break through and cross, and the offensive means are too simple! "Manchester City legend Dickov, who commented on the game with Dark, was a little speechless about Manchester City's tactics.

"It looks like they're too far from last season!" Duck continued, "Last season they had a lot of attacking combinations up front and were very delicate, but now it's too rough, Newcastle have been focusing on their own defence, Dzeko is too hard to find space! ”

As Duck said, City were in a lot of trouble, Pardew was determined to take a point, and he was very protective on the counter-attack, and the wing-backs would never easily get past the half, and the recovery was extremely fast.

Man Sheng tried to get the midfield to give more support to the front, from speeding up the tempo to slower, and City's attacking quality improved, but it was still a little bit away from victory, and the game had to end 0-0.

De Bruyne, who entered the dressing room, was furious, he thought that the midfield did not give him enough support, and Costa and Oxlade-Chamberlain on both wings were too close to the wings, which also made him have some difficulties in getting the ball, unlike Kroos, De Bruyne was more inclined to pass forward in terms of passing, and he also made a lot of mistakes in this game because he did not get much support.

It was Dembele who got into a quarrel with him, and Dembele did not reach a tacit understanding with him on several occasions, and the two sides may not be in good spirits.

Wen Sheng was also very annoyed that he could not win Newcastle in the first game, which was the planned three points, but Pardew told him with the facts that Newcastle are not soft persimmons.

Until Wensheng returned to the dressing room, De Bruyne and Dembele, despite the dissuasion of their teammates, were still discussing the details of the game with heated words.

Wen Sheng's arrival did not make the two stop arguing, and it was not until the teammates repeatedly dissuaded them that the two stopped and remained silent.

"You didn't move, did you?!" Wen Sheng looked at De Bruyne and then at Dembele.

Neither of them answered the question, and Milner said, "How is that possible?!" Chief! It's just that I couldn't win this game, and everyone felt a little uncomfortable! ”

"Are you angry now?! If it does, I want you to shake hands and hug each other! Wen Sheng said to the two again.

"If you don't win this game, no one will be happy! I'm not happy either! I allow you to quarrel because everyone understands the game differently, but I want this quarrel to be positive, not negative! I also hope that you can put aside your prejudices and improve together! The main responsibility for not winning the game lies with me, of course, your completion of the game is not very good, your spirit itself is not good, this is what we need to improve in the future! ”

"It's not going to be easy for us and I know some of you are already burnout, but I hope you can pick yourself up, is the Quadruple the end of the race?! At least not in my opinion! We can have another quadruple crown! We can't be called the hegemon now, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal are all eyeing us, and we will be laughed at if we are not careful! ”

"I hate being a joke! I hope you guys hate being a joke too! It's a game worth pondering, what exactly are we not doing well enough! ”

Wen Sheng's tone was calm, and he didn't get angry, and in his opinion, it was pointless to be angry.

And this game really needs too much summing up and Costa and Oxlade-Chamberlain need to improve their way of playing.

Last season, due to the presence of Silva and Kroos, the winger on one side was itself defined as a winger and needed the ability to sprint and break through, but in this game, the midfielder originally lacked control of the ball, and the opponent easily besieged De Bruyne, and it was meaningless for Costa and Oxlade-Chamberlain to still stick to the wing.

What's more, when De Bruyne is surrounded and suppressed, the wing-backs should make more contributions, we can't play the ball in the middle, at least the wings should find a way, but the starting Milner and Hills are not good enough, their crosses are a bit too much, but the effect is very poor.

Manchester City only completed 11 shots in the whole game, with only two shots on target, and Newcastle had only two fewer shots than Manchester City, which is extremely abnormal!
