Chapter 859: Nima ...... still has to rely on Li Chuanqi......
Manchester City's Premier League title three rounds ahead of schedule has been the focus of European media coverage.
The Guardian commented: "It is clear that if Liverpool had not been so impressive in the Premier League, Manchester City would have won the title sooner.
As the defending champions, Manchester City have been thwarted by all Premier League teams this season.
However, with Lee's arrival, Manchester City's attack power was even stronger, and in the match against BG6, only Tottenham Hotspur got a draw at White Hart Lane, and Manchester City won all the other games!
With such a strong fighting power, Manchester City's championship is a matter of course and deserved.
However, Manchester City can win the Premier League title three rounds ahead of schedule, not only because they have strong strength, but more importantly, because their temperament has fundamentally changed.
In the past, Manchester City were good at playing with the wind, and once the team took the lead, they could easily win the game, or even win the game by a big score.
But once the opponent scores, or against a strong team...... Manchester City will lose most of the time.
This season, however, has been completely different, with City coming back from behind on several occasions to win the game.
This was hard to see before.
This is the main reason why Manchester City have been able to dominate the Premier League this season.
It is for this reason that we are optimistic about their journey in the Champions League.
Obviously, the Champions League is a stronger team, and the reason why Manchester City ended up in the Champions League in the first two seasons was because they were not good at playing strong teams.
But with the arrival of Lee, Manchester City's temperament has changed radically, they have the ability to deal with all kinds of complex situations, and have the strength to turn defeat into victory in a passive situation!
After winning last night, Pep Guardiola has looked ahead to the rest of the season, believing City will have the next four big games.
What are the four other big games for Manchester City?
Two Champions League semi-finals against Juventus side Ajax and an FA Cup final against Altford.
Let's start with the FA Cup final, if Manchester City pay attention to this game, their chances of winning the championship are very high, after all, in the Premier League, Manchester City beat Ertford twice!
As for the Champions League semi-finals, as long as Manchester City is calm, it will not be so difficult to qualify for the final!
If Liverpool can knock out Barcelona and reach the final, it will be very difficult for Manchester City to win the title, after all, Liverpool have more experience in winning the Champions League, and they are very eager to recover the disadvantage of the two teams in the Champions League!
If Barcelona reaches the final, it will be a feast for fans all over the world!
Lee vs Messi!
That's what fans all over the world want to see!
It's going to be a showdown!
In terms of championship experience, Barcelona have the absolute upper hand, and their only problem is their backline.
In past engagements, Lee was the nemesis of Barcelona's defense!
He still holds the terrifying record of scoring in every game against Barcelona!
Of course, if Barcelona's offense is opened and Messi can play his role, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose!
Manchester City have the qualifications and ability to imagine the future and the quadruple, but can Pep Guardiola do things in those four games?
has become the key!
As it turns out, it doesn't do City any good to get things done, and with experienced partners like Lee and Sergio Aguero up front, Guardiola doesn't have to worry about attack.
His focus now should be on defense.
How to improve the ability to help defend and defend at high altitude is something that Guardiola should consider.
You can't play any more strange tricks like 'Lee goes to play in the midfield', he is the sharp knife of Manchester City's striker, let him attack the city, hand over the midfield organization to De Bruyne, and hand over the midfield interception to Gundogan!
Add David Silva and Riyad Mahrez and Fernandinho to the mix, and Pep Guardiola has plenty of midfielders at his disposal to deploy.
There was no need to withdraw Lee to midfield at all. ”
The Guardian has criticised Pep Guardiola's line-up for a link to City's Champions League deficits in the previous two seasons.
Manchester City to achieve the quadruple?
Nima ......
It seems that there is a real possibility.
Premier League fans are depressed.
Manchester City, which is full of enemies, has come to this point?
This is something that Premier League fans can't figure out.
Damn, what is UEFA doing?
Hasn't it been investigated at this time?
The punishment for Manchester City should come out!
Once UEFA punishes Manchester City, it will definitely shake Manchester City's military morale!
But...... That damn Lee, he must be talking again......
Ay! ……
Relying on Barcelona to beat Manchester City in the final, it is better to pin your hopes on Liverpool.
Come on Liverpool, beat Barcelona and advance to the final!
Then beat the unbeatable Manchester City in the final!
The fans all over the world will be on your side!
……
After winning the Premier League, Manchester City did not bask in joy and actively prepared for the Champions League semi-finals.
They are going to have a great season, a season that will go down in history.
Ahead of the first leg of the semi-final against Ajax, Manchester City are in the 36th round of the Premier League.
They will travel away to take on Burnley.
Burnley are now fifteenth, four points above the relegation zone, and the situation is not so rosy.
For the first leg of the upcoming Champions League semi-finals, Pep Guardiola put Li Chuanqi, De Bruyne and Aguero on the bench.
On April 27, the 36th round of the English Premier League began!
Manchester City had the upper hand from the start of the game, and Burnley showed their resilience to the world, stopping City's flood of attacks time and time again.
At the end of the first half, Burnley drew at home to Manchester City!
For Burnley, it's a win!
After a fifteen-minute intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
The game is still very close and the battle is still fierce.
Manchester City are not in a hurry, though, and a draw is acceptable to them.
As long as they can maintain their undefeated golden body, they will succeed.
After discussions with Mikel Arteta, Pep Guardiola decided to bring Lee Chuanqi and Kevin De Bruyne on the pitch to get a feel for the Champions League game.
In the 25th minute of the second half, Guardiola directly replaced two people in one breath, and Li Chuanqi and De Bruyne came on the field.
After the two came on the pitch, Manchester City's attack was sharper.
In the 33rd minute of the second half, Raheem Sterling played an inverted triangle pass and David Silva passed the ball to Gabriel Jesus in the box.
Gabriel Jesus kicked it back.
"Peng! ……”
Li Chuanqi made a powerful long-range shot on the penalty line!
Football blasted Burnley's goal open like a cannonball!
1 to 0!
Manchester City finally got on the scoresheet.
The group of reporters on the sidelines complained helplessly: Nima ...... still has to rely on Li Chuanqi......
After the goal, City slowed down the tempo and, after getting the football, did not rush to attack, but switched to possession.
Clearly, City were very happy with the result.
In the end, Manchester City won the game 1-0 and immediately focused on the Champions League semi-finals in three days' time.
