The Kicker, Germany's most influential football media, reported on Manchester City's first round with the headline, "Manchester City showed the style of a European powerhouse by overwhelmingly beating West Ham United!" ”

In the commentary, "Kicker" said, "It is said that 'there are no weak teams in Serie A', and as the Premier League, which is one of the five major leagues, UEFA has surpassed Serie A in points, and there is no direct strength or weakness of the 20 teams, and it is common for small balls to win over giants." ”

"And in the first round of the Premier League, after a good game, Manchester City won without any suspense. 2:0, not a lot of goals, but if you watch the game, you can know that Manchester City has an overwhelming advantage. ”

"As Manchester City's opponent, West Ham United, who are at home, played 90 minutes and did not have a few chances at all, and the game situation has always been in the hands of Manchester City."

"This game also proves that Manchester City has become a real European powerhouse, Manchester City deserves to be awakened by all European giants, and they will definitely become a new force in the European arena in the new season!"

Of course, as a German media, "Kicker" will not skimp on reporting on its own players, and Ozil's photos are on the page.

The Kicker said of Mesut Ozil, "Ozil was consistent and outstanding throughout the game, and he was a starter in the middle of Manchester City's 352 formation, and he could be one of City's regular selections this season. ”

"It's pretty remarkable. In the Manchester City squad, he will face a battle for positions with the likes of David Silva, Lee Morris, Ljungberg, Ivan Crewe, and Alanor Brummer, all of whom are capable of standing out in such a competitive environment. ”

Finally, The Kicker advises, "...... Perhaps Loew [Germany national team manager] should consider calling Mesut Ozil into the national team. ”

In addition to the German media, there were also media outlets in many countries, which reported on the match. It is worth mentioning the Spanish media.

The Spanish media are very close to Manchester City, because Manchester City has two Spanish players, David Silva and Torres, the latter is the Spanish golden boy, and it goes without saying that he is famous, David Silva was also selected for the Spanish national team last year, and his performance is solid and outstanding.

In addition, Manchester City's 'OS-F' control system football is also very close to Spanish-style football, and some Spanish media even claim it. "Manchester City is the 'face' of Spanish football in the Premier League."

It can be seen that the Spanish media is friendly to Manchester City.

Therefore, in the report, they expressed their pleasure to see Manchester City show a strong team style in the first round, and are optimistic about Manchester City's results in the new season, and also believe that Manchester City will also be one of the most promising teams in the Champions League.

The Spanish media also praised their own players in their reports, David Silva was considered solid and well-rounded, and Torres did not score. However, the previous goal in the Community Shield has already proved its quality, and the media said, "Expect Torres to score the first goal in the Premier League".

While constantly reporting abroad. Wansheng has also received a lot of attention.

As long as it is the news coverage of Manchester City, it is indispensable to report on Wan Sheng, and almost everyone knows that Manchester City can achieve where they are now. It is inseparable from Wansheng's coaching ability.

As mentioned in the "Kicker" report, "In the summer, Wan Sheng led Hong Kong to win the Asian Cup. Returning to the stage of European football, he continued to lead Manchester City and showed the quality to surprise all opponents. ”

"Last season, Wan Sheng led Manchester City to win the Premier League and the League Cup, and last season, he won the Premier League again and also won the FA Cup, which is very meaningful in England. Now in the new season, what honors will he lead the team to win? It's worth looking forward to. ”

In more media reports, Wansheng's name is known to more people all over the world.

In European football, Wan Sheng is only considered a 'first-class coach', comparable to Mourinho, Benitez and other 'young and famous' managers, in fact, in the hearts of many fans, he is still worse than Mourinho, because he has not won the Champions League trophy.

However, Mourinho is already one of the top managers in the world, and Wan Sheng is naturally included in it.

In China, Hong Kong, East Asia, and the whole of Asia, Wan Sheng's name is enough to be described as 'legend', the biggest proof is that he made a name for himself in European football, and also led Hong Kong, China to win the Asian Cup.

There has never been a real world-class coach in Asia, and Wansheng can come to this point as the 'first person in Asia'.

As far as the Asian Cup is concerned, perhaps in the world, this event does not have much influence, but it still has a very large influence in Asia.

Before July, many Asian fans who did not pay attention to European football did not know the name of Wansheng at all, but now almost all Asian fans know the name of Wansheng.

I know that he coached Manchester City in the Premier League and won one championship after another!

Know that he is a Chinese coach who is good at creating miracles!

Also know him...... Quite young!

This is a very important key, Wan Sheng has just turned 30 years old, most people are still professional players at this age, those who are not professional players, are still doing other jobs, he has achieved such brilliant results at this age, which surprised many people.

As a result, more and more foreign media have poured into Manchester to interview Wansheng.

Among them, there are not only British media, but also German, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch and other national media, of course, South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and even more indispensable Chinese media.

Many media reporters came to interview Wan Sheng, and the Chinese media were naturally not willing to be left behind.

In the past few years, the Chinese media has been 'eating what is left over from the European media', and many reports are known to the European media before the Chinese media know.

They weren't happy with the situation because Wan Sheng was Chinese and they felt they deserved first-hand information.

But the fact is that they can't be like the local media, 24 hours a day, as long as Wansheng shows up for an interview, and on weekdays. Wansheng is not available for interviews.

It is for this reason that it is difficult for them to get the latest news.

They were very dissatisfied.

Some Chinese reporters who have just come to interview feel that Wan Sheng is a 'big name', and some of them have experienced the process of 'angry criticism' or 'disdainful departure', but then they must come back with a smile on their faces, because everyone must also admit that as the 'first Chinese football coach', 'the world's first-class coach', plus the Tagore Wan Group, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, this young man himself is a 'big name'.

He has the capital to 'play big names'.

And not just for them. Those European media reporters with their noses raised high have to look at Wan Sheng's face if they want to interview.

It is precisely for this reason that the Chinese media reporters who came here have a balance in their hearts.

You know, in fact, in the UK, yellow-skinned East Asians will still be discriminated against, those Europeans always look at Asians a little high-minded, although the government and institutions have been proclaiming that 'everyone is equal', 'combat racial discrimination' and the like, but ordinary people can't manage it at all.

In English football. Chinese media reporters want to enter some clubs for interviews, but they don't just want to get in, they have to go through a lot of documents, certificates and other things, and they still need the club to open to the outside world before they can enter.

So it's very difficult for them to get in touch with the star players.

It's a lot better at Manchester City. Because Wansheng is a Chinese, the club also has players ******** Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei, and the staff of Manchester City Club are still very kind to the Chinese media. They were given the same treatment as the local media.

This is already quite remarkable, after all, the local media in Manchester who came to interview are absolutely friendly to Manchester City FC. That is Manchester City's 'own people', that is to say, Manchester City FC has also classified the Chinese media as 'its own people'.

But in any case, it is still very difficult to interview Wansheng.

The big sports media in the country know that coming to Manchester to do interviews is a tough job, because after arriving, spending a few days in front of the club may not be able to interview Wan Sheng himself.

Maybe you are lucky, you can meet Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei, and say a word or two, if you are unlucky, you will get nothing, and if you suffer for a few days, you will not be criticized by the leaders for a few days.

All in all, it's a 'tough' job.

However, in front of Manchester City Club, there are always 'newcomers' joining, these 'newcomers' may be because they want to try their luck, or they may be assigned by the leader, no matter what the reason, there are always 'newcomers' in the group of media reporters who come to interview.

Wu Haibo is a newcomer, he is a reporter for Football Weekly.

He did not come to the interview on his own initiative, but was assigned by the leader to come to Manchester to do the interview.

Football Weekly is a medium-sized sports outlet that mainly reports on domestic football, but after the Asian Cup, they also have to find other topics to attract readers, and always reporting on domestic football in China will only lead to declining sales.

For the sake of the company's development and performance, they must send journalists abroad to cover the news.

This is how Wu Haibo was assigned, and his job was to conduct an exclusive interview with Wan Sheng, and the topic centered on 'talking about the possibility of the Chinese team winning the Asian Cup in Hong Kong, China'.

The subject matter is good, and the interview work is very serious, but it is extremely difficult to get the job done.

'Wansheng is difficult to interview', this is not a secret in the domestic sports media industry circles, so this work, almost no one within Football Weekly wants to do it, because it is simply difficult to complete, and if the work is not completed, it will affect the bonus of the whole year, and even direct salary income.

Wu Haibo has been working in "Football Weekly" for several years, during which he has been diligent, very serious in his work attitude, and has also made a lot of achievements, before he was in charge of a "European Football Special Commentary" section content, which has been widely praised by readers, and promoted the sales of "Football Weekly" to increase a lot.

As a result, Wu Haibo's annual bonuses are more than others.

Originally, Wu Haibo had the ability to work, and according to normal logic, it seemed that he would be able to get the attention of his superiors, so that his career and life would be thriving.

But this is the case with many domestic enterprises.

If you have a job record, it doesn't mean anything, because you're just an ordinary employee.

When your work performance makes the leader red-eyed, then you are in a tragedy, because it can directly become the leader's work performance.

(PS: This is not an angry statement, there are too many similar things.) My sister works at the Prospecting Research Institute, and her boss I know is very capable, and it is very profitable to create a marine project, but the superiors want to leave her in other departments and take charge of this part themselves.

Because it is a leader, he has the right to adjust the work of his subordinates, and this kind of thing is not illegal, and it is difficult for the 'victim' to 'resist', either resign and leave, or obey the arrangement.

So now, her boss is angry and plans to resign and go alone.

There are a lot of such things, and I don't think it's anything, but when it happens around me, it's always infuriating to hear it. ）

As a result, Wu Haibo was also tragic......

He was transferred from his position, 'transformed' into an expatriate correspondent, and was also called a 'promotion', and the leader also said that there was an extra bonus for being able to complete the work.

For the sake of the family's life, it is impossible for Wu Haibo to resign directly, then the family will have no income, even if he is angry, he can only follow the arrangement and come to the UK for an interview.

Wu Haibo has been working in China before, and his English is not very good, so he can only communicate with people simply, naturally, after arriving in the UK, when he meets a British person who speaks 'local nasal tone and often pronounces quickly', he can only touch a nose gray.

After a lot of tossing, he moved from London to Manchester, in front of Manchester City's training base.

Those reporters who were 'squatting' in front of the door, when they saw a newcomer coming, they all had a smile of 'senior' on their faces, and then they gave 'guidance' to Wu Haibo, "Are you here to interview Wansheng?" ”

"That's definitely going to be a no-show! Just wait until you can't finish your job! Wansheng never gives interviews! ”

"You talk to your boss more, this job really can't be completed, you can't chase the interview, the police will take care of it......"

"If you let the nearby police know that you are harassing Wansheng, you will be miserable! You don't know, it's all Manchester City fans, and so are the police, and they adore Wan Sheng......"

Wu Haibo was drenched in cold sweat when he heard this, and suddenly he didn't have much hope for his work. (To be continued.) )
