Within the Atletico Madrid team, there is also a discussion of the game, especially Morris and Mesut Ozil, who have deep feelings for Manchester City. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After reading the British media reports, many players began to discuss, and Diego Costa asked Morris directly, "Is what the boss said true?" Are we going to give it our all? ”

Under normal circumstances, a player would not have said such a thing in the face of a game.

But just like the British media said, it doesn't matter if Atletico Madrid loses the game, they have already got six points, and the hope of qualifying from the group is very high, and if they lose this game, Atletico Madrid will still be the first in the group.

Showing mercy to Manchester City's men is equivalent to letting Manchester City survive and allowing them to compete for the first and second place in the group.

Maurice rolled his eyes, and Ozil next to him said, "Don't think about it, the boss will definitely go all out, he said it a long time ago!" And, does it need to be released to Manchester City? If we don't take it seriously, we will be the ones who will be beaten. ”

"yes, we don't guarantee to win!" Morris said, "Manchester City is very strong, I know Manchester City is also quite good, and the current Manchester City is not the Manchester City of the past. ”

Ozil nodded.

Both of them have some nostalgia, thinking that when they left last summer, there were still familiar faces in the team, but now this Manchester City team is much stranger, and the changes in a year are very big, many old teammates have left, and many new players have arrived.

Boateng also walked over and said self-deprecatingly, "Are you talking about the game?" I don't have a good impression of Man City, I've been a substitute here. Of course, it's the same now, but I prefer to be a substitute in the big team. ”

"Don't say that, Jerome, you're excellent, you're just too young. The boss will give you more opportunities. ”

"I believe it, that's why I said it calmly."

"That's good."

"If I can play, I'll definitely give it my all, I don't want to be beaten by Kevin." ”

Hearing Boateng say this, the others were a little envious.

Jerome Boateng and Kevin Prince Boateng are a pair of brothers, they were also born in the Hertha Berlin academy, Jerome Boateng came to Manchester retrospectively, his brother Kevin Prince-Boateng has been playing for Hertha Berlin, after four seasons in the Premier League, he transferred to the Serie A giants AC Milan, Kevin Boateng is also difficult to play the main force in AC Milan, but after all, he joined the giants and followed the fame, Jerome Boateng is worse than that, So he has to work for his position.

There are also such brother stars in world football, but it is difficult for both of them to play at such a high level, and others are a little envious of Boateng.

The group discussed the game and then went to the training ground together in the afternoon.

This was the last training session at the makeshift training ground.

Wansheng brought everyone together.

'I was going to announce the starting line-up, but I didn't because I hadn't figured out who I was going to play. This is the last training session, and I want to see how each of you is doing, whether you are working hard or if you are cheating and not training well. ”

"In terms of the starting line-up, I have only one request: it depends on your form. This is your last chance to prove yourself. ”

'I want every player in the starting line to give it their all, what I said to the journalists is true, we have to try to win, that's the work ethic and that's what we have to fight for!'

"Here I remind you: ignore what the media say, Manchester City is a fight to the death? Yes, but the game is also very important for us, and if we win this one, we don't have to worry about the Champions League, but we can focus all our energy on the league, you know? It's not just about a game, it's about our league and the cup competition coming soon! ”

"Now the training begins, I'll keep an eye on you!"

Wan Sheng had a cold face, and after he finished speaking seriously, everyone couldn't laugh.

They found out that their previous ideas were outrageously wrong.

The coach clearly meant it.

The team is not going to fight Man City, they are going to give it their all to win, so they have to give it their all.

Quite a few players swallowed their saliva.

They don't believe that the consequence of not training seriously is that they don't get into the starting line-up, or that the rest of the game will be affected.

There is a lot of competition for every position in the team's third line, and the main players don't want to lose their positions, and the substitutes have to work hard.

So everybody is serious.

――――

Just when Wansheng asked everyone to go all out, Manchester City manager Mancini was also solemnly reminding his players to work hard to win.

As a player, Roberto Mancini was an excellent striker, representing Italy in the 1990 World Cup, but did not play, and after retiring from football, he began his coaching career, having coached Fiorentina, Lazio, and Inter Milan, and his coaching career was quite successful.

Mancini then moved to Manchester City to take over the reins and hopefully lead the team to the top.

This season is all about opportunity.

After two seasons of consolidation, Manchester City FC is already quite strong, Mancini believes that Manchester City still have a good chance in the Premier League competition this season, but for the Champions League, Mancini is not sure, the first two games of the group stage are exemplified.

The match against Atletico Madrid is Manchester City's last chance.

Another defeat to Atletico Madrid would leave City with little hope of fighting for the top two spots in the group. At the same time, the match with Atletico Madrid also made Mancini feel depressed, because this is the team coached by Wansheng.

When he first arrived at Manchester City, Mancini experienced the impact of Wansheng on the team.

Almost all Manchester City support media are comparing him to Wan Sheng, of course, the results speak for themselves, the young Chinese coached Manchester City for three seasons, won three league titles, two Community Shields, four cup titles, plus a Champions League, dominated almost all the championships of English teams, Mancini's coaching resume is not so brilliant, he was even ousted because his management of Inter Milan was too much worse than expected.

As a coach at Manchester City, Mancini felt the pressure on him all the time.

In addition to results and support, even some players in the team have a lot of connections with Wansheng, such as the core of the midfield, David Silva, that is, the player brought out by Wansheng, Mancini began to think that the team could not need David Silva, but in the end it was found that without David Silva, Manchester City's strength simply dropped a notch. The main goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei, not only brought out by Wansheng, but also Wansheng are Chinese players, for a while, Mancini felt very angry, out of selfishness enabled the second goalkeeper Joe Hart, I didn't expect Joe Hart to be a genius, but compared to Wang Xiaolei, Joe Hart is still worse in experience and reaction speed, in important games, he still has to use Wang Xiaolei to be safe, in the goalkeeper position, the good news is that Joe Hart is also very good, fully capable as the main goalkeeper, Mancini is thinking that next season he will find an opportunity to 'deal with' Wang Xiaolei, so that he can eliminate some of Wansheng's impact on Manchester City, and Wansheng's 'descendant' players will be few, and the impact on Manchester City will also be diluted.

Of course, that's for later.

Now Mancini still has to face the match against Atletico Madrid.

It was a painful pre-game, almost everyone was talking about Wan Sheng, and he, as the manager of Manchester City and an internationally renowned manager, was completely ignored, even by his own media and fans.

Mancini is also under a lot of pressure because it's a game that must be won.

It's not just Manchester City's Champions League group situation, for him, beating Wansheng is a proof to himself, he doesn't want to be a 'replacement for Wansheng', as long as he can beat Wansheng's team, this will definitely be much less.

The second reason is that Mancini is even more hungry to win.

When the team gathered for the last training session, Mancini gathered all the players and said seriously, "Everyone knows what we have done in the group, we are on the verge of a 'do-or-die match'!" If we lose, we won't be able to qualify for the round of 16! ”

'In the first game we drew with Napoli and everyone should remember that game and we were lucky to get a point! In the second game we lost to Bayern, there is nothing to say, we played too badly......"

Quite a few players bowed their heads.

As Roberto Mancini said, they have a luxurious squad that has always played poorly in the last two European games.

"So, this one, we have no choice, if we want to stay in the Champions League, we have to fight until the last minute, a draw can't work, we have to win!"

"The opponent is Atletico Madrid, I'm sure some of you are no strangers to their manager, but a game is a game, it's professional football, personal feelings are completely meaningless, and when it comes to the game, it's a sign of respect for everyone, the fans, the team, and the opponent."

"I want each of you to do a good job!"

After Mancini spoke, he glanced at everyone solemnly before leaving the training ground, the assistant coach announced the dismissal, and every Manchester City player clenched their fists, and they listened to Mancini's words to heart.

David Silva and Wang Xiaolei glanced at each other.

No one listened more seriously than they did, and they were all thrilled to play against Atletico Madrid, or rather, against a team that won 10,000 wins, and it was an opportunity to prove themselves in front of their former mentors.

The two secretly vowed to work hard!

――――

Manchester City's home game against Atletico Madrid is here.

It can be seen from the starting lineup list that Atletico Madrid does not have any intention of giving Manchester City any 'water'.

Atletico Madrid arranged a strong enough offensive and defensive lineup.

In the 433 formation forward, the central striker is Falcao, who has been performing well in the Champions League, right forward Diego Costa, and left forward Mesut Ozil.

In midfield, it was a combination of Morris, Isco and Raul Garcia.

The centre-back pairing was Godin and Thiago Silva, right-back Felipe Kasmirski and left-back Boateng.

J Rodriguez, Falcao, Juan Forlan, Klose, Raphael Varane, Mario Suarez and Sergio Asenjo were on the bench.

By the time the starters were ready to enter the game, the substitutes and the main players were already sitting in their seats and waiting.

When Wansheng walked out of the passage, he was noticed by all the cameras.

In this game, Wan Sheng is the focus.

Dozens of reporters carried cameras to shoot constantly, Wan Sheng didn't pay attention to the reporter's shooting at all, but looked directly to the side, Mancini also walked out, the two came to a routine handshake, but just touched hands, it can be seen that the two sides have no good impression of each other.

After that, Wan Sheng walked to the away team's coaching box, where assistant coach Fan Zhiyi and other substitute players were there.

The main players of both teams are ready to play.

David Silva and Wang Xiaolei stood in the Manchester City team, and nodded with Morris and Ozil, and they knew each other very well, even if they were opponents now, they had to say hello when they stood together.

Dzeko saw Silva's movements and asked, "David, how's it going?" Do you know them well, do you have to pay special attention when you play? I heard that he is very powerful. "Dzeko was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and at the age of 6 he went through the war with his family throughout the country, perhaps because of the experience of his youth, which made his movements always look fierce, and at the same time, he is also a very efficient striker, the '77.5 million euros' Aguero arrived at Manchester City but failed to become a regular striker, and he could only sit on the sidelines as a substitute in this game, which proves that Dzeko is excellent.

Hearing Dzeko's question, David Silva smiled at Morris and turned back and whispered, "Of course, be careful, Lee is more difficult than you think." ”

"Really?"

"Of course, I'm sure." David Silva said seriously.

Dzeko nodded knowingly, but he didn't think so, Mancini made a special emphasis on paying attention to a few players when formulating the tactics against Atletico Madrid, in addition to Diego Costa and Falcao on the front line, he focused on paying attention to Morris, "That's the core of Atletico Madrid, the most important player, don't underestimate him because he is 34 years old." ”

This is a phrase that all Manchester City players remember.

Although David Silva said the same, Dzeko still subconsciously felt that a 34-year-old veteran player ...... Even if Maradona is at this age, it's not a big deal, right?

Is he still running?

Will his body still be able to withstand the impact?

Zheke's height of 193cm looks very burly, after careful comparison, he thinks that the 'old guy' is nothing remarkable, even if the other party's skills are good and experienced, it is a big deal to collide directly, does the other party dare to fight with himself?

Thinking about it, Dzeko feels like a genius!

He was full of confidence. (To be continued.) )
