Manchester City's poor performance also gave hope to Manchester United.

After the national team match, the two teams will have to fight for real things.

Mourinho couldn't help but start psychological warfare in front of the media, "It has been said a long time ago that if Manchester City does not have a king, then Manchester City is nothing. Guardiola can only rely on it to eat. ”

This is nonsense! After Guardiola saw the news, he scolded hatefully, Wang Dalong is his biggest trump card, he doesn't rely on Wang Dalong, who does he rely on, Mourinho is a typical can't eat grapes and says that grapes are sour, and even some psychopaths.

Pep Guardiola is glad that Wang Dalong does not have the task of playing for the national team, and while almost the entire first team has returned to China to compete, Wang Dalong has been given a two-week rest, which is a godsend.

Manchester City can have no one to do, but there must be Wang Dalong, as long as Wang Dalong is there, victory exists, regardless of whether his opponent is Manchester City or other teams, Guardiola does not believe that the other party dares to attack against Manchester City.

The only thing to worry about is how the rest of the players are doing after the international break, and whether there will be injuries.

Basically, every time you come back from a national team game, there's always one or two players who get hurt, and there's always one or two players who are out of shape, and that's the damn international break, it's the most annoying time for every big club.

Of course, now Guardiola doesn't care at all.

Because no matter what, Wang Dalong is good after all.

Manchester City will be affected, Manchester United will be affected, and Manchester United will be affected even more, so why should he worry.

In the second half of 2018, the Chinese team did not have any tasks, unlike the European side, and immediately started the qualifiers for Euro 2020.

In Europe, almost every player has never been idle.

In Asia, there are not only few matches for clubs, but also for national teams.

In half a month of free time, Wang Dalong chose to accompany his family, his child is about to be born, and it is expected that there will be more than ten days to give birth.

The due date was getting closer and closer, and in the second week, Tamara was admitted to the hospital, and Wang Dalong's parents rushed over.

It looks like it's about to give birth.

But until the end of the international break, there was no movement in Tamara's stomach.

Among the returning Manchester City players, sure enough, someone was injured, and Guardiola was still a little optimistic and happy.

Injured players matter, Gabriel Jesus strained his left thigh, Leroy Sane twisted his waist, and Spanish midfielder Silva also had a slight problem with his toes.

The loss of three main players at once made Diola unable to laugh.

This is definitely not pleasing to God Manchester City, otherwise how could it hurt the three main players at once.

What made him even more depressed was that none of the players in the Manchester United team were injured.

Before the Manchester derby, the scales suddenly tipped in favor of Manchester United?

It's so annoying!

Then the news media began to bombard, "Losing three big players, is there any hope for Manchester City, the away game at Old Trafford, it looks suspicious, the last game against Crewe, Manchester City played so hard, if this game is missing three players, what will Manchester City play?" ”

The Manchester Evening News is not bullish on Manchester City, but on Manchester United.

Bale, who has just joined Manchester United, will have a strong performance and he can't wait to play for Manchester United, and the combination of Bale, Raheem Sterling and Alexis Sanchez will certainly be no worse than Manchester City's attacking combination. Raheem Sterling, in particular, will surely prove himself in front of the Manchester City team and prove that it was definitely a wrong choice for City to abandon him. ”

"If Manchester United can effectively contain the king's play, then Manchester United will have a better chance of winning."

However, the Manchester Evening News' analysis did not give Spinach a cold, and the bookmakers are still bullish on Manchester City.

The handicap offered by Spinach is that Manchester City makes half one.

Obviously they are still bullish on Manchester City, and they are still bullish on Wang Dalong.

Wang Dalong's odds to score a goal are 0.8 to 1.

"What the hell is the bookmaker driving, which means that Manchester City is playing Manchester United away from home, and they are not afraid of Manchester United, right? So optimistic about Wang scoring goals? ”

After all, Manchester City's prospects are not optimistic, and bettors don't know how to buy them.

There is no way, in the past two days of training, Guardiola can only replace the injured three players with a lineup of substitutes.

Silva still has hope of returning to Manchester United, and his toe can be considered if it is not serious by then, but the other two players are not possible, with Gabriel Jesus and Leroy Sane both having to hang their exemption cards.

Although there is no problem with players like Aguero, the fatigue of the long journey will definitely affect the state, so Guardiola's training is very light, and the two days are mainly recovery.

Wang Dalong's role is even more prominent, and now he is almost going to rush with the Manchester City team alone.

Guardiola was very depressed, thinking that Manchester City would kill all opponents at the speed of chopping melons and vegetables, but he didn't expect that fate would be so bumpy.

He still has a lot of resources in his hands, but it's just not what he wants the most.

The aged Yaya Toure continued to be offered a chance to play in central midfield, with Ilkay Gundogan moving to the left winger and Silva on the right to be filled by another Bernardo Silva.

On the forward line, only Aguero is alone, and Guardiola has to play in a 4231 formation.

Needless to say, Mourinho feels that this Manchester City is much weaker than the previous Manchester City, at least with them, there is no such fear.

He put all the main forces on the top.

He lined up with a 433 formation, but the three in the middle were three midfielders, and only the three in front were the real attackers. Marcus Rashford on the left, Alexis Sanchez in the middle, Bale on the right.

After seeing Mourinho's announcement of the starting lineup, the Times wrote a sarcastic article, "In the face of such a Manchester City, Mourinho still does not have the courage to play against the Manchester City team, Mourinho actually gave up the midfield directly, the three midfielders speak for themselves, his team may not need to organize, just give the ball to the three guys in front of him......"

"But I have to admit that this tactic may be the most reasonable, the role of the three midfielders in the game must be to be the king, Fellaini, Pogba and Matich, these three people, it depends on whether Pogba can play a good pivotal role between attack and defense."

In his pre-match press conference, Pep Guardiola was very low-key: "The Manchester derby is the best game in England, we play away from home, the conditions are very difficult because we are missing several key players, this year's Manchester United is much stronger than last year, they have a super impactful Bale, I think our defence will be tested a lot, the result is difficult to predict." ”

It's not like he did in his previous games, when he said that Manchester City would win.

Of course, Mourinho also dares to raise his profile, for Manchester United, although it is a home game, but not to lose is to win, in fact, to be able to play a tie with Manchester City, it is also a very beautiful result, if you can eat Manchester City it would be better, but now you can't say it, now for Manchester United, it is already the right time and place, if this can not win Manchester City, then this season will be too difficult.

"Everybody knows that only the king is a threat to us in the Manchester City team, the other players have nothing to fear, they are like a woman, they will only put the ball at the feet of the king, I don't believe you wait and see, this is the way it is, we have everything ready, I will let the three lads go to entertain the king."

Despite this, Mourinho stomped on the rest of the Manchester City squad and considered them worthless.

Being so ridiculed by Mourinho, the players of the Manchester City team were naturally very angry, although they all knew that Mourinho was just deliberately using agitation to frustrate them, but they still couldn't calm down.

Pep Guardiola has been putting out the fire in the dressing room, calming everyone down and telling everyone not to fall for Mourinho.

Before leaving the locker room, he specially talked to Wang Dalong for a few words.

"Calm down, the family will be safe, and when you finish this game, you will be able to see your children and wife."

Yes, the due date is Manchester derby, and Wang Dalong was not able to be by Tamara's side, which is very unkind. In order to play this Manchester derby, Wang Dalong made this decision.

At this time, he felt very guilty in his heart, and he didn't know how Tamara was doing in the hospital. Although his parents are by his side, he is not there, and he always has a bad feeling in his heart.

It's a shame not to be able to see your child born for the first time.

Some of them are distracted.

Ninety minutes at this time was definitely very painful for him.

He wanted to call his wife, but his mother answered and said that Tamara had entered the delivery room......

He can only play on the field!

Ninety minutes?

No, you can't.

Wang Dalong shook his head, he couldn't wait ninety minutes, he wanted to settle the battle as soon as possible, to accompany his wife and welcome the soon-to-be-born child.

He can't play ninety minutes.

It's better to settle the battle in the first half, even against Manchester United.

Phew—

As soon as they walked out of the tunnel, the Old Trafford fans were greeted with huge boos.

Wang Dalong turned a deaf ear, boos If you can make a player reduce their combat effectiveness, it's weird, it's useless!

I'm going to score!

Wang Dalong's goal is very clear.

"Fake, every time I come here, my heart beats so hard." Behind him, there is the tall and mighty Yaya Toure, even if he has been on the battlefield for a long time, Yaya Toure is still boiling with blood and his heart is beating faster.

After all, this is a Manchester derby, not an ordinary game, and the atmosphere reached a climax in an instant when everyone played.

'Manchester City is going to rely on the king and I have a hunch that the king will score goals soon. Lineker muttered.

"That's not good, your hunch must be wrong, I feel that he is going to be injured soon after the opening, and then go to the hospital to accompany his wife and children." Rio Ferdinand definitely didn't want this result to be what Lineker said, he was a Manchester United, how could he have hoped for such a result to happen.

So he hopes that Wang Dalong will be injured and then sent to the hospital, and Wang Dalong can be born with the child.

'You don't know, the more important the game, the more it can bring out his fight, and I'm afraid of a massacre for Manchester United.

"No, it won't be what you said, absolutely not, this is Old Trafford, it's a massacre, it's a massacre, it's supposed to be Manchester United that slaughter the opponent."

"Huh, you forgot the previous seasons?"

"I don't remember...... Ferdinand shook his head, who would remember the pain? And under Mourinho, it wasn't so miserable, didn't it win this year?

Lineker shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking that Ferdinand was pretending, how could he not remember the battle between Manchester United and Manchester City in recent seasons.

After the rise of Manchester City in recent seasons, Manchester United has been suppressed, even if it is a special one, after Mourinho came to Manchester United, he still can't compare with Manchester City, because Manchester City is indeed stronger.

Last season, Manchester United struggled to match Manchester City, who were well ahead of the table and held all the teams under them to win the league title with ease. And Manchester United can only compete with other teams for second place, what a helpless thing.

Raheem Sterling and Sanchez were in the centre circle and Sanchez drove the ball out.

Raheem Sterling and Gareth Bale then rushed to the left and right in what was the first time the pace of a United player had overpowered City.

Fast!

Just one word.

The two beasts roared and slaughtered into the heart of Manchester City.

Pogba kicked the ball out with a big kick, and the target went straight to Bale.

Bale is definitely the fastest in the Premier League.

It was a simple but crude tactic that was so effective that City immediately made a splash down the left flank......

Even if Bale didn't be able to catch the ball, it had already scared the Manchester City left-back into a cold sweat, and he never knew how terrible Bale's explosiveness would be if he hadn't done it against Bale.

Walker gasped for breath, and the first time he made contact with Bell, he felt that he was not in the same rhythm as Bell! He kicked the ball off the touchline.

However, Wang Dalong still has two Manchester United players by his side, Fellaini and Matic still did not leave Wang Dalong half a step when the team was attacking, and it is also very strange that a top midfielder like them has to follow Wang Dalong, only Pogba has been liberated and joined the battle in the front court.

The boundary ball is out soon!

Wang Dalong suddenly started up and rushed back!

The target is none other than Paul Pogba.

Pogba receives the ball on the wing, who knows that Wang Dalong will kill from behind?

Marouane Fellaini and Nemanja Matic simply don't have the speed to start at all.

With a whoosh, Wang Dalong had already gotten rid of them by more than three meters.

Fack!

What did he run back to!

It's not an offense again!

Wang Dalong came too fast, Wang Dalong hurriedly used his body to protect the ball, and directly collided with Wang Dalong's body.

Bang –

Pogba was knocked to the ground.

"What's going on?"

Everyone was amazed at this moment.

Wang Dalong was able to knock Pogba to the ground?

Isn't that scientific......
