Wansheng is really rare and humble.

In the eyes of media reporters, this young man is always very arrogant, even to the point of being a little arrogant, he will never compromise with the media and opponents, especially in terms of team results and strength, every time he opens his mouth is 'must win', every time it is 'the champion can only be us', and now they suddenly heard Wan Sheng say that Manchester City is only a relegation team, they are all stunned.

Did you hear it wrong?

This Chinese actually humbled and said that Mourinho overestimated them? Or even say that Manchester City are aiming for relegation?

What's going on? How is that possible?

Is it an illusion, or is it reality...... They were a little confused, but they were so sure of what they had just heard, that they began to speculate --

Could it be that something is wrong within Manchester City?

Or is Manchester City's goal actually to be relegated, and the current results are just luck?

Could it be that this Chinese really only wants to lead the team to relegation? Is there something big wrong with their tactics, or is it the reason?

Amid all the speculations, the media reporters were even more confused.

Of course, Wan Sheng doesn't care what they think, he doesn't even pay attention to what they say, he just says the 'facts', the club's plan for this season is to avoid relegation, Waddell has given him two years to rebuild the team, and if he doesn't get any results in these two years, he won't have any pressure.

It's just that his own goal is not relegation.

But this is not to say that Wan Sheng's desire to win has diminished, his goal is still to win the title, and the desire to win the championship is still very strong, but Manchester City's current situation does not need to be involved in the complicated war of words in the Premier League.

Compared to Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and other teams, Manchester City is still relatively 'idle' and they have a lot of time to train because they don't have European competitions. The only ones in contention are the domestic league and the cup, which doesn't start until mid-October, and before that, City only need to play two league games.

Such a free schedule has given Manchester City plenty of time to train.

Wansheng's idea is that no matter what is said outside, the team just needs to train with peace of mind, so participating in the outside world debate is not worth the loss, and being moderately modest may also achieve unexpected goals, such as making the opponent careless or something.

Wansheng's modesty still has a certain effect.

The next day, there were big media according to Wan Sheng's words. After analyzing the situation of Manchester City, the article pointed out that Manchester City did not have the strength to win the championship, they had just changed the manager, and the new tactics were far from perfect, even if the results in the first few rounds were not bad, but it was a bit of a fantasy to keep it for a long time, and now the other problem of this Manchester City team is that it is too young, and the team sold a lot of teams and veterans in the summer, so that the front and back positions are occupied by various young players and newcomers. Even if Wansheng has a good vision and these players are very strong, it will take a long time to blend them into a whole. So at least this season, Manchester City are not capable of competing for the title.

This report is from The Sun, and after the report, many media outlets followed. Also agree with their analysis.

In fact, the report speaks to the hearts of many people.

In the summer, they felt that only those teams could win the championship. It's nothing more than Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, plus a defending champion Derby County with a little chance, and now the league has started a few rounds, and suddenly a Manchester City is inserted, which always feels weird, and when they see the big media say this, they suddenly realize that Manchester City is just a temporary success, just a dark horse that suddenly plugged in, not a team with the strength to win the championship!

So various media have followed the trend to report, although the media supporting Manchester City continue to refute, and claim that the team is very strong, Wan Sheng is just 'Chinese modesty' and the like, but their influence is much worse, plus Wan Sheng himself does not stand up to explain, the direction of public opinion will naturally not change.

At this point, City are working training.

Before October, they only need to play in the league, and due to the influence of European competitions and international breaks, the league schedule is also very loose, and from mid-September to October, there is only one game, so Wansheng can rest assured that the team will do tactical training vigorously.

When there are consecutive training days, Wansheng will let the team concentrate on tactical training, which seems to have little effect for a few days, but Manchester City is different, under the influence of 'collaboration' skills, Manchester City's tactical training efficiency is several times faster than that of other teams, coupled with some individual training and Wansheng's scientific and reasonable arrangement of training, Manchester City's week, even equivalent to other teams training for 20 days or more, the team's tactical movement, the tacit understanding between players, has also been significantly improved in training.

When the outside world is arguing for Wansheng's modesty, Manchester City is silently improving its strength.

Although Wan Sheng told the media that 'the goal set by the club is only relegation', he did not say so in the team.

In order to encourage everyone to train hard, improve the enthusiasm of the whole team to train, and in order to make the outside report not affect the team, on this morning, Wansheng gathered everyone and said to them, "You should have heard what the media said these days, they think we are just a relegation team?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and said in their hearts, isn't that what you said?

Wan Sheng waved his hand indifferently and said, "Our ancient Chinese wrote a book of war, the title of the book is called "The Art of War", "The Art of War" talks about "showing the enemy to be weak", which means that the truth is hidden and the false is to confuse the enemy, the enemy is visible and I am invisible, so that the enemy's strength is exposed as much as possible, but my strength is hidden, so that the enemy will misjudge my strength, overestimate his own strength, and will rashly attack me, but I can concentrate superior forces and annihilate it. ”

"I say this to those media, not because of the modesty of the Chinese, but because we want to make the opponent think that we are weak, and then they are likely to misjudge, which will give us more chances to win!"

Everyone listened to Wansheng's explanation in a daze, and suddenly felt cold sweat.

This young manager is really despicable...... And meanness is meanness, and this meanness still has a heritage.

"It seems that you should be careful in the future Chinese...... "Many people thought.

Wan Sheng waved his hand and continued to say loudly, "But no matter what I say to the outside world, we all have to train hard, only our strength is strong enough to perform well enough in the competition." No matter what the opponent is, we can win! ”

"Now I can tell you clearly that our goal is not just relegation, on the contrary, for me, the only goal of leading the team to the league is to win the championship!"

"Yes, champion! League Champions! ”

'I've led Derby to second division titles and Premier League titles in the last two seasons and now I'm in charge of Manchester City as your manager. My goal is still to lead the team to win the championship! ”

"So what do you guys think? Someone doesn't want to win the championship? Who doesn't want to win the championship! Now stand up and tell me! ”

Of course, no one came forward.

Wan Sheng glanced at everyone seriously, and then waved his arm and said excitedly, "Very good!" All of you have the same goal as me, and we can work together to win the title, so from now on, work hard and train hard! As long as each of us has our hearts set on the championship, dare I say. That trophy in May next year will definitely belong to us! When the time comes, you can hold it around the city, or kiss it, and enjoy the honor it represents. You can do whatever you want! Now you need to work hard and put in the training! ”

"Is there anyone else who doesn't understand what I mean?"

Everyone immediately shook their heads.

Although what Wan Sheng said is actually not too fierce people, he is not the kind of person who is born with a leadership temperament. However, due to the inherent affinity of the 'hypocrisy' skill and the good results in the previous rounds, most of the team still felt full of fighting spirit.

It was as if the title would have belonged to Manchester City.

Seeing the players actively involved in training. Pierce feels very incredible, he has been in the team for a few years, but the whole team training has always been a little scattered, but now it seems that everyone is very positive, is what the Chinese just said really so effective?

He doesn't understand.

At the same time, he also feels that this is where his gap lies, and it is no wonder that this Chinese can lead the team to win the championship and be favored by many people, and he can only be an assistant coach now, and he still needs to learn a lot.

Thinking of this, Pierce is also full of fighting spirit.

He found that he could learn a lot from Wan Sheng and that he was always improving, and this feeling made him very motivated.

……

September 24 is the seventh round of the league, Manchester City away to Newcastle United.

Newcastle United didn't do very well last season and spent heavily on signings in the summer in the hope of strengthening themselves in order to get good results.

Parker and Emre are both good deals, their arrival has improved Newcastle United's midfield, but elsewhere, they have not gained much, with Robert gone, Ambrosse gone, the depth of the wing weakened, and the only free agent Moore signed on the back line, who is not necessarily much better than the departed Aubrio.

As anyone knows, Newcastle United's bigger crisis is up front, with Bellamy and Kluivert leaving behind the team's forward problems, and manager Souness had to keep Alan Schiller in the hope that the veteran would play for the team for another season.

It was only after the start of the league that Newcastle United's transfer paid off, with the signing of Michael Owen making them one of the most high-profile clubs in England.

At the end of last season, Real Madrid signed Julio Cesar Baptista and Robson De Sousa, making Michael Owen completely reduced to the fifth striker, Owen couldn't stand to stay in the reserve for a long time, and finally decided to leave Real Madrid, but Liverpool was not willing to buy him back, Manchester United did not have his place, Owen had to choose other teams, so Newcastle United got a chance.

Michael Owen returned to the Premier League for £18 million in early September to join Newcastle United and scored against Fulham on 10 September, making his debut for Newcastle United.

It was also Owen's first goal for Newcastle.

Michael Owen's return to the Premier League and his immediate ability to score goals naturally attracted the attention of the whole of England, so when Newcastle United met Manchester City, the game became highly watched, and many media speculated about the outcome of the game.

But in fact, Wansheng did not take Newcastle United to heart, a Michael Owen is not worthy of his special attention, more importantly, this Newcastle United changed blood in the summer too seriously, Souness is good, but it is extremely difficult to reintegrate the team in a short period of time, which is why Newcastle United's results in the first few rounds are only average.

Souness is not a win, and it will take some time for him to stabilize the team after the team has completed a major reshuffle.

So Newcastle United is not too strong now, at least there is not much threat to Manchester City, who have also completed a major change and are already close to becoming proficient, even if they are playing at home.

Wan Sheng also stabilized the players' mentality before the game.

"It wasn't a difficult game for us. You just play normally, and we can win! He said to everyone.

This has reduced the pressure on the players.

The game was just as Wan Sheng judged, and Manchester City did not play difficult.

Newcastle United belongs to the kind of team that can play irresistible offensive football, they are not much worse than Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in this regard, to say that the gap is only the style of offensive football, and it is precisely because of this style of play that if they want to play well, the team must have a skillful cooperation as the foundation, but they have just completed a big change in the summer, obviously they do not have this foundation, so when they meet the same offensive football, with a more skilled Manchester City, they will only be bullied.

They were being suppressed all over the field.

Newcastle United fans hope that their new idol Michael Owen can help the team score, but in reality, the starting Owen can't even touch the ball, the only thing he does is keep retreating, then forward, and then retreating, back and forth consumes a lot of energy, but when the team is completely suppressed, he can't find a chance at all.

Manchester City is the opposite.

They were skilful in their teamwork and kept Newcastle United tired of their defence, and their forwards were in good form, with Darren Bent and Andy Cole scoring goals in both halves.

In the end, Manchester City won 2-0 away at Newcastle United to win the seventh round of the league.

In the post-match press conference, Newcastle United coach Souness also had to admit, "We couldn't play the whole game, the defense was very difficult, and this Manchester City team gave us no hope of winning." ”

"I don't know how they judged it because they were aiming for relegation, but what I saw was a very strong, strong opponent who had to accept defeat......

"Even if they win the league next year, I'm not surprised at all......" (To be continued......
