Chapter 205: The gap between Manchester City and Atletico Madrid

In fact, Mancini knows Atletico Madrid's style of play. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Atletico Madrid won the La Liga championship and entered this season's Champions League, many football professionals are studying Atletico Madrid, and Mancini is no exception, not to mention, he took over Manchester City, Manchester City was greatly affected by Wan Sheng, although he was mentally resistant to the influence of Wan Sheng, but he also hoped to find some tactical inspiration in Atletico Madrid's style of play.

Mancini is well aware that against Atletico Madrid, you can't let them take the initiative.

If Atletico Madrid has the initiative, they will master the rhythm of the game, and the opponent will have to follow the rhythm and fall directly into the disadvantage.

Mancini wants to rely on the team's midfield scramble to limit Atletico Madrid's attack, so he arranged five midfielders and explained to everyone, especially in defense, David Silva, Nasri, Yaya Toure and others must shoulder heavier defensive tasks, they need to build a solid defense line for Manchester City from the front end of the penalty area to the middle line, and block Atletico Madrid's cooperation in this range.

So far, however, the blockade has not worked.

Under the strong attack of Atletico Madrid, Manchester City's formation is becoming more and more compressed, Mancini wants to stand up and tell the players to press out, but reason tells him not to do that, otherwise it will give the opponent more opportunities.

The only good news is that the opposition has not scored so far.

Goals...... It seems like it's just a matter of time? Even Mancini had this pessimistic thought.

Manchester City did not succeed in limiting Atletico Madrid, but were led by Atletico Madrid's tempo.

The more the game was played, the more uncomfortable it became.

The pace of the game is not what Manchester City are familiar with, and they are running to the rhythm of Atletico Madrid.

The physical exertion, the mental exhaustion is not the point, the point is that the game is not familiar to them, they are playing a kind of football that they are not familiar with, and that feeling is very uncomfortable.

The only one who adapted to the game was David Silva, who was a player who was developed by Wansheng and was comfortable with the fast-paced game, but he was quite good defensively, and he broke two passes from Atletico Madrid.

The Manchester Stadium commentator couldn't help but say, "Silva is doing quite well! If everyone else was like Silva, we wouldn't be worried about the game......"

In the Atletico Madrid coach's box, Wan Sheng was also very pleased to see Silva's performance, more than three seasons have passed, Silva's game experience has undoubtedly improved a lot, he is stronger and more experienced than three years ago.

This is not unexpected.

When Wansheng coached Manchester City, David Silva was only the 'second choice' of the midfield, and after he left, David Silva gradually replaced Morris and became the absolute core of the midfield.

Wansheng is relieved by this, after all, David Silva is a player who has put his own label on it.

David Silva is also working the pitch, he is arguably the most fierce player in the Manchester City team, there have been no games before, he can be more motivated than he is now, and he wants to show his quality in front of his former mentor to show his growth.

Pity...... Teammates aren't very good.

David Silva tried his best, but he couldn't recoup the team's disadvantage, and he could only work on defense and attack...... It's so tough just to get through the middle line.

This is the 'boss' team!

It used to be the same with Manchester City, but now it's completely different, the gap between Mancini and the 'boss' is too big, the two are not at the same level at all, and there is no comparison.

Under the leadership of Mancini, the team's strength and performance have improved, but it is too much worse than the former Manchester City!

――――

Manchester City has been playing to the rhythm of Atletico Madrid, and in the occasional counterattack, they have been driven to subconsciously speed up the tempo.

As the game continues, anyone can see that Manchester City will collapse sooner or later.

In fact, it didn't take long to wait, and in the 28th minute of the first half, Atletico Madrid broke through the door of Manchester City.

Before Diego Costa could send the ball into the Manchester City goal, City's goal had been completely torn apart by Atletico Madrid's runs and passes, and they simply couldn't organize an effective defence, and finally Diego Costa sent the ball into the net with ease.

When Atletico Madrid scored, sighs rang out from the stands at the Manchester Stadium.

Manchester City fans weren't much angry, the game was as they expected, and although Manchester City were not weak and performed well in the Premier League, was Mancini a Wanwan opponent?

Definitely not!

So Manchester City won't be a match for Atletico Madrid either!

This is the logic of Manchester City fans, and Atletico Madrid's goal also represents the correctness of their logic.

Many Manchester City fans shouted the slogan "We need Wansheng", which made Mancini sitting in the coach's seat feel very embarrassed, he has been coaching Manchester City for more than two seasons, has been working hard to lead the team, and trying to eliminate the impact of Wansheng's legacy, but the effect is not very good, more importantly, he failed to lead the team to make any breakthroughs in the Champions League, as long as he did not do this, Manchester City fans will always remember Wansheng, because Wansheng led Manchester City to win the Champions League, It is also the only Champions League trophy in Manchester City's history!

The current Manchester City and Atletico Madrid are a stark contrast!

Manchester City received a lot of money and Atletico Madrid also received financial support, compared to the higher cost of Manchester City, who already have a squad to win the European Championship.

On the basis of the winning squad, after spending a lot of money, Manchester City fans did not see the team's results solid, but played worse and worse in the Champions League. Add some competitiveness in the league and it will be difficult to satisfy Manchester City, who have won the Premier League three times in a row. Looking at Atletico Madrid again, Manchester City fans seem to see the former Manchester City - won the La Liga championship in the first season and won the Spanish Copa del Rey, and now it is the second season, Wan Sheng led the team to Atletico Madrid, in the 'Group of Death', there is no pressure to win the first two games, and now it is the third game...... I guess we'll win too, right?

There is no problem in qualifying from the group, the question is how far Atletico Madrid can go.

Manchester City's defeat in this game leaves little chance of qualifying from the group, and they will have to fight for third place in the group...... In the eyes of many fans, this is not a sure thing to be earned, and with one point in three games, their results are no better than Napoli.
