Now Manchester City's squad can be said to be very perfect, and Li Chengfeng feels that he has a chance to fight for the league title. Manchester City, who are now in second place, have two games in hand, and they are still two points behind Manchester United, which is not out of reach. And Manchester United's focus this season is the Champions League, with Daily Star reporter Bill Thornton revealing that Ferguson wants to win another Champions League title and then retire.

With the drag of the Champions Cup, Li Chengfeng does not believe that the young Manchester United can hold on to the end. Manchester United quickly had problems, as they missed out on relegation side Birmingham City and only managed to get a draw. There were a lot of games for Manchester United during this period, but injuries prevented the team from rotating well, and the players had physical problems.

It wasn't until the 58th minute of the second half that United broke the deadlock, with a dashing Gebertar goal-winning strike giving United the lead. However, in the final stages of the game, United's fitness problems were exposed, and there were leaks in defence one after another. In the 89th minute, Birmingham equalised, with Zikic pushing Rio Ferdinand over and Bowyer slotting home from the right side of the six-yard box.

In the end, Ferguson replaced four strikers and worked hard, but there was too little time left, and the players' fitness was close to exhaustion, and they still couldn't win the game.

Manchester City had a chance to catch up, with Lee Seung-peak fielding all his main players in the home game against Aston Villa, except for Carlos Tevez, who was suspended by the club.

"Champions, our goal is to be champions. It's all about time, and if we don't work hard for the championship, we will definitely regret it in the future. Li Chengfeng encouraged the team before the game, "No one doesn't like a champion, and so am I." I love champions, I love champions to death. Only by fighting hard for the championship will we not regret that we have wasted our lives in the future, nor will we be ashamed of doing nothing. ”

"If we win this game, we will be evenly divided, and if we keep winning, the championship will definitely be ours." Li Chengfeng roared and shouted, his voice was so loud that it stirred in the small locker room for a long time, "For the championship, victory!! ”

The players were also excited, and the Manchester City players, who saw the hope of reaching the top, were like chickens, attacking aggressively from the start, pressing Aston Villa to ravage their half.

Just eight minutes into the game, Bale burst into the box after receiving a pass from Silva and was tripped by an Aston Villa defender for a penalty !!

Luis Suarez converted the penalty to give City the lead. However, this was only the beginning, and just 5 minutes later, Lescot, who assisted the forward court, scored a long-range shot into the net, 2:O!!

Aston Villa had no resistance to the crazy Manchester City, and in the 27th minute, Suarez's shot from inside the box was blocked, and Bale, who was on the right, arrived and scored a follow-up shot, 3:o!!

The overall situation has been decided, Li Chengfeng looked at the opponent who was lost on the field, put his mind at ease, and commanded Manchester City to slow down the offensive, after all, it is also very physically exhausting to maintain such an attack, and there is no team in this world that can maintain the offensive for a whole game.

In the second half, Bale burst into the box and the Aston Villa defender made another mistake to give City a penalty, this time Bale himself took the penalty and smashed the ball into the Aston Villa goal. This is Bale's best game this season, and there have been people who have ridiculed Manchester City for spending a first-class price just to buy a second-rate star, but Li Chengfeng knows Bale's potential, he knows that Bale can become a player like Robben, but now, everyone knows, how can Li Chengfeng be blind to the problem of looking at players.

In the end, relying on Bale's explosion, Manchester City defeated the opponent 4:O at home, and also tied Manchester United in the standings, only in second place with a goal difference. The league is still a long one, and Lee Seung-peak believes he still has a chance.

Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, such as the transfer of Birmingham Club, and when Lee Seung-peak inquired again, they finally gave up their intention to extort a sum of money. There is no way to do it, Birmingham's losses this season have gone to the level of tens of millions of euros, the players they bought at a premium cannot be sold at their prices, and the team has no hope of promotion now, even on the side of the play-offs. As a joint-stock company that needs to be accountable to shareholders, they must make a decision, and it is imperative to give up this money-losing mess.

They want a transfer fee of 3ooo million pounds, which is much higher than the transfer price of Wigan team, who are also in the Championship last year, and Wigan does not have the same losses as Birmingham are now, Li Chengfeng will certainly not agree to such an outrageous offer, he prefers to be able to control the transfer price within 150000 euros.

The negotiations will be a long process, perhaps lasting several months, and it is impossible for Li Chengfeng to strengthen Birmingham this winter, otherwise what if Birmingham is upgraded before an agreement is reached, and they regret it? After going out for so many years, he still knows the indispensable truth of guarding against people, otherwise how could Xu Genbao be pitted by the Spaniards.

Of course, Li Chengfeng still has to make some preparations for possible success, even if the final price really does not fall to the psychological price, but as long as it is not the transfer price of Wigan last year, he will accept it. There are really not many such opportunities, and if you miss it, you may not have it, not to mention that Birmingham is located in Birmingham, the second largest city in England, and has great prospects for development, compared to Como, Norka and the like are much better, not to mention anything else, Birmingham's current home stadium St. Andrews Stadium is enough to have a capacity of 3oooo people, which is larger than Como and Norka's home stadiums combined.

Lee Seung-feng, who made the decision, quietly bought 22-year-old young defender Joe Roden of Swansea City FC in the Championship, 24-year-old defender Alan Brown of Preston and 27-year-old winger Joe Lawley of Nottingham Forest through his partner in England. Although Roden is 22 years old, he has only played in the Championship for more than a year, and his value is not high, and Joe Lawley has proved that his ability can only be at the level of the Championship, and his short career in the Championship has exposed his shortcomings, but he is still very strong in the Championship. There is also La Liga Real Sociedad's 10,000-year-old substitute striker Bautista, although his scoring ability is not very good, but he works hard enough, as a defensive striker, he is still qualified to be a frontcourt-stirring stick.

These guys, plus 25-year-old Rayo Vallecano defender Velázquec, will cost Lee Seungfeng a total of nearly 6oo euros, but that's next season, and it's definitely worth it. Birmingham's weaknesses lie on the left side and in midfield, and their forward line and defenders are still good, especially the combination of Che Adams and Utkiwicz in the front, which is also in the top few in the Championship. As long as Lee Seung-peak can make up for their weaknesses, it is not impossible to be promoted to the UK, and if he can master Birmingham, not to mention that there are resources of the Como club behind him.

However, the three clubs are not easy to manage, and Li Chengfeng will also feel powerless, not to mention that he still has to be a coach in the future, and he needs more professionals to help him, such as the former Arsenal scout recommended by Arsene Wenger, the transfer director, and Mislintat, who single-handedly poached Lewandowski, Aubameyang, Ousmane Dembele and Pulisic and many other superstars, he has not looked for a job since leaving Arsenal last year.

Naturally, Milingstadt has no shortage of suitors, but he is somewhat idealistic and does not want to find a job casually. Before that, he left at Arsenal because of a conflict with the sporting director. Samriel tends to use a wider network to find players, while Milingstadt insists on using data analysis to select targets. The two sides could not reconcile, so Milingstadt chose to leave.

This is how to do technology, Li Chengfeng used to be a technical background, understand his ideas, and the two who also like numerical analysis also have a lot of common language. Milingstadt agreed to Lee's invitation. Being in charge of the technical work of 3 clubs at the same time must be interesting to do such a challenging job, and people who are addicted to technology are so simple.

The good things in the real world have made Lee Chengfeng more confident, and he believes that Manchester United will still make mistakes, and Manchester City will definitely wait for his chance. But you have to work hard, otherwise even if Manchester United make mistakes, you won't be able to seize the opportunity.

Alex Ferguson is no ordinary man, and although Manchester United are in trouble right now, this stubborn old man will not accept his fate. In the past, he was a dozen points behind and could have the last laugh, such a person could not leave too many chances for Manchester City, Manchester City must seize every opportunity to have the last laugh.

Manchester City have enjoyed a series of league wins, especially the away victory against the British giants Arsenal.

Bale and David Silva were both sidelined with knee injuries for Manchester City, but Tevez was released from the club after apologising to Lee Seung-bong and partnered Suarez in the City attack.

At the start of the first half, Arsenal took advantage of the home field to start an attacking performance. In the second minute, Nasri split the ball to the left wing in the middle, Wilshere sent the ball to the goal from a small angle, Van Persie slid half a beat slowly, and Walcott's return near the bottom line was destroyed. In the 4th minute, Wilshere shot from outside the area, and Neuer slapped it and then took the ball down. In the 9th minute, Van Persie shot with his left foot from the edge of the penalty area, and the ball hit the left post and bounced. Arsenal then caused chaos in the City penalty area, with Wilshere's push being saved by Neuer.

In the 2o minute, Barry was booked for deliberately blocking Sagna on the wing. In the 23rd minute, Wilshere went straight to the ball and Walcott quickly turned in the box to get rid of Zabaleta and fired a low shot into the far corner, the ball grazed the post and was about to go wide. In the 28th minute, Nasri crossed from the left wing, Cesc Fabregas fired hard from the edge of the penalty area, the ball hit the left post and bounced to the far end, and Walcott shot again and bounced off the right post. It was Arsenal's third post of the game and they were unlucky.
