I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet.

As a "person who has come over", Lin Sen has opened the biggest hanging in the history of football, or in the history of mankind, but he still can't guarantee that he is in control of everything, let alone take advantage of everything.

In all fairness, the transfer of Manchester City to bring in Barry in memory is definitely not a failure, and if Marwood's deal is completed, although it is not much of a merit, it can be regarded as an achievement, but Linson still vetoed the other party's proposal twice, the reason is very simple, he has a better candidate.

It's just that guns are better than knives, but no one can be sure that they won't be cut by a knife one day. And Barry, that's such a knife.

Manchester City, who were accidentally "cut" by Barry, although not fatal, but the knife hurt, because two days later, Manchester City's lead is only one point. After winning the replay against Blackpool, United are on 48 points, just one point away from Manchester City, and it is not just Manchester United who are close to Manchester City, with Arsenal on 47 and Chelsea on 45...... Even Linsen, who has always been hard-mouthed, admitted after the game that Manchester City lost an important game.

The media always likes to call the matchup as the focus battle, and the battle at the top of the table as the game that determines the championship, but in fact, what really determines the league championship is never just a game, even if it is an important game, because no matter who your opponent is, the value of a victory is three points, and the so-called game worth six points cannot really let you add six points. So, maybe winning the head-to-head will make your title more convincing, but in the end, there is always only one criterion for the title, and that is to win the game that deserves to be won, and the so-called game is a game like Manchester City vs Aston Villa.

Of course, there is no regret medicine in the world. Losing their last league game in January leaves City with just one game left before the winter transfer window closes, and that is the FA Cup fourth round.

Manchester City, who had previously played a rematch with Leicester in the Championship, continued their good "luck", and their opponents in the fourth round were even lower, Notts County from the third tier of League One, and even in League One, Notts County is not ranked high, but even with such a team, Manchester City once again almost fell behind.

On 30 January, Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw away by Notts County in the FA Cup. And the game was anything but optimistic, as City barely equalised until the end of the game, and once again had to play a "out of nothing" rematch with their opponents. However, for the media in England, the headline of the day was not Manchester City's near-upset, but another explosive news from the transfer market.

For £50 million, Torres moves to Chelsea.

The Daily Mail used the word "finally" to describe the deal as final, not only because Chelsea had put too much effort into Torres' transfer since the summer, but also because Torres' attitude had made Liverpool struggle as well. And now, at a time when the timing was not right but the timing was right, Torres' shirt was finally changed from red to blue.

The reason why the timing is inappropriate is because the winter transfer is like a halftime break in a game. "Playing at this time" means that you are not the "starter" of this game, which is not conducive to the birth of super transfers. And the timing is right. It is because of Torres, who is precisely the much-needed fighting power of Chelsea, who is facing a reshuffle in the forward line.

Most of the English media were optimistic about the move, with even many Chelsea fans believing it was a good deal. Their reasons for optimism are compelling, as Torres has already proven himself in the Premier League, and for him there is no adaptation problem in the Premier League.

If Lin Sen hadn't been "from here", maybe he would have held the same opinion, but now......

The departure of Torres means that a Premier League club has gained a super striker, and it also means that another club has lost a leading striker. Therefore, the impact of this transfer cannot be as simple as Torres personally. In just one day, Liverpool announced two introductions in quick succession, and of course, the name is not unexpected.

35 million, Newcastle striker Carroll transferred to Liverpool, and at the same time, 20 million, Inter Milan "Demon Boy" signed the Reds.

The two transfers added a total of 55 million, after spending all the transfer income brought by Torres, Liverpool even smashed in another 5 million, I don't know if Hodgson, who has left at this time, has mixed feelings, this is not because Liverpool has sold Torres now that it is rich, Liverpool also sold Mascherano in the summer, and it is not necessarily how generous Liverpool is.

Sure enough, people can't be compared.

MCFC Bar.

Every transfer period, the transfer market is the hottest topic among fans, especially on the last day.

"Any news?"

"The Sun says Sergio Aguero's agent has arrived in Manchester ......"

"Hell the Sun. What about other media? ”

"No ...... for the time being"

……

Some are looking up at the news on the TV screen, some are refreshing their mobile phones, and some are holding the phone and don't know who they are talking to...... In the final hours of every transfer period, it's a fixture for the MCFC and it was at this time last year that Manchester City welcomed Reuss, without warning, so, who knows what will happen this year?

Especially in the case of Chelsea, Liverpool's various amplification moves.

Transfers are sometimes another battleground, and when competitors are making big moves in the transfer market, even if they know that their team doesn't need to be recruited, fans still subjectively hope that their team will respond accordingly.

But this time, until the last minute, Manchester City fans couldn't wait for any surprises.

There is no Aguero, and there is no Mr. X-

It's February.

Manchester City "only" updated their left-back in the past winter transfer campaign, which obviously disappointed many City fans who were waiting for it, but they soon diluted the disappointment of all Manchester City fans with a victory on the field.

Two to two.

Six to one.

Three to zero.

After the defeat to Aston Villa, Manchester City suffered a draw and ceded the top spot to arch-rivals Manchester United, however, just when Manchester City fans were worried about whether the team would have another round of trouble, it was not long before Manchester City proved to their fans that their team was trustworthy, not the hearty 6-1 that followed, but the 3-0 that just ended.

Because it will be a win that all Manchester City fans will still talk about until the end of the season, because in this game, Manchester City defeated one of their biggest rivals for the title, Linson's first away win over the old man.

Manchester derby.

At Old Trafford, Manchester City played what the media called the best game of the season after the game, and even the order of the goals was like a textbook, in the fifteenth minute, Balle on the left side scored, in the fortieth minute, Adriano in the middle extended the score, and in the seventieth minute, Robben sealed the win.

In the post-match press conference, Ferguson regarded the defeat as a shame, not only because this defeat allowed Manchester United to send their sworn enemies to the leading position, but also because this game was actually suppressed by Manchester City in their own turf.

Ferguson, who seemed to be angry about the defeat in front of reporters, calmed down after coming backstage, and then invited Lin Sen to have a drink, it is worth mentioning that just before this game, Lin Sen specially gave the old man a bottle of wine.

When talking to Linsen, Ferguson seemed to have forgotten about the defeat just now, and the conversation was unexpectedly good, and he really didn't mind that his team had just been surpassed by the team led by the person in front of him, and he even asked about Linsen's career plan, joking that Linsen now has the qualifications to become the godfather of Manchester City.

Lin Sen knew that Ferguson was joking, the godfather, it is never something that can be achieved overnight, and now, the most lacking thing in football is patience. However, his career plan is not a secret, and Lin Sen naturally has nothing to hide, even if Ferguson is one of his strongest opponents at the moment.

But Lin Sen didn't know that after he left, Ferguson was still thinking about his words.

Three years.

Lin Sen told Ferguson very frankly that if everything was smooth, maybe he would only stay at Manchester City for three years at most, which could only be brought forward, not postponed.

And three years later, it was exactly the time when Ferguson was ready to retire -

In the Manchester United vs. Manchester City match, neither Manchester City fans nor Manchester United fans noticed that there was a "guest" in the stands at Old Trafford. The English media of the gossip heart.

The Sun was the first to reveal the identity of this man with a picture: André Mardela.

Technical coach of AC Milan.

Of course, AC Milan people can't just be fans when they appear in the stands for such a game, because everyone knows that Manchester City's opponent in the Champions League quarter-finals is AC Milan.

Yes, after a two-month break, the Champions League, the highest competition for European clubs, will be reopened in the middle of this week.

The first leg of Manchester City's quarter-final against AC Milan will be held at the San Siro Stadium, which is another perk of Manchester City's desperate efforts to qualify for the top spot in the group. (To be continued......)

PS: Officially wishing everyone a happy new year and a happy sheep.
