"Andy, why don't you look surprised by City's goal?"

On the commentary bench of Sky Sports, after Martin Taylor passionately explained the goal of Manchester City just now, he looked back and found that his partner was drinking water calmly, looking light.

Isn't this guy a Manchester City fan?

Why is it so calm to see Manchester City score such an important goal?

"Hehe, of course it's not surprising, because I know Brother Lin will make a move!"

Andy Gray had an expression that I had known for a long time to be like this, which made Martin Taylor on the side speechless.

It was Aguero who scored the goal, right?

However, it was indeed Lin Quan who gave him the assist, and Lin Quan could actually shoot by himself just now, but he still selflessly chose to pass the ball.

"Lin, thank you for the good ball!"

On the field, after Aguero scored this crucial goal, he excitedly pounced on Lin Quan and gave him a warm hug.

The injury in the previous period has had a big impact on Aguero's form, and Aguero has struggled in recent games, so for him, this goal is very important.

After scoring this goal, he finally regained some form and his confidence has regained a lot.

"Hehe, you well yourself!"

Sergio Aguero's shooting skills were excellent and he rarely vomited, which was much better than the likes of Raheem Sterling, who were known for their joy.

In De Bruyne's peak years, those players on the Manchester City front line wasted his assists, and frequently performed the stunt of spitting cakes in the game, which made Ding Ding depressed.

Fortunately, it came to run later, and bought a demon man with extremely high goal efficiency and no spitting cakes, which finally allowed Tintin to end this torturous time, otherwise he would be teammates with Jesus and Sterling for a few more years, and De Bruyne was afraid that he would not be angry to death.

In fact, during the summer window, Manchester City sent scouts to inspect Liverpool's golden boy Raheem Sterling, but later gave up the idea of bringing him in.

There were two main reasons for the waiver: Liverpool's offer was too high and the Reds were asking for a £50 million transfer fee.

Manchester City felt that Sterling was not worth the price, and bargained to 30 million, but Liverpool did not agree.

The second reason is that Manchester City bought Son Xingmin, plus Aguero and Lin Quan on the front line, and there is not a shortage of people for the time being, so when the price cannot be negotiated, there is no forced poaching, which makes the transfer finally fail.

Judging from Sterling's performance at Liverpool this season, it is fortunate that Manchester City did not pay this money, otherwise it would have been a loss.

In the 16 rounds of the Premier League this season, Raheem Sterling has only scored three goals in total, an average of less than 0.2 goals per game, and the goal efficiency is too low.

Although he is still very young, only 21 years old, this efficiency is not even comparable to the substitute striker Iheanacho in the Manchester City team.

Heheanacho has made 13 appearances for Manchester City in all competitions this season, scoring five goals and providing two assists.

Considering that Iheanacho has played far fewer games and minutes than Raheem Sterling, he is clearly much more efficient than his opponents.

It is for this reason that a number of teams have recently become interested in Manchester City's substitute striker and want to take him away during the winter break.

The outside world has estimated that Iheanacho's worth is around 20 million pounds, which is definitely very high considering that he is not yet 20 years old.

Heheanacho was on the bench at this time and jumped up with excitement with his team-mates after seeing Sergio Aguero score.

After the celebration, Iheanacho prayed in his heart:

Let's go one more, Boss Lin, Boss Ah Kun, only if the two of you join forces to kill the suspense of the game, will we, the substitute players, have a chance to play!

Pep Guardiola applauded and smiled with satisfaction when he saw Sergio Aguero's goal.

Although the score is only 1:1 now, he already has an intuition in his heart: this game is stable!

Sure enough, after being equalised by Manchester City, Arsenal seemed to be beaten back to their prototype, and their minds were divided.

Some players felt they should take the initiative and score another goal like they did in the first half.

Some players feel that Manchester City are now in a strong momentum, and they should first stabilize and wait for this wave of momentum for Manchester City to go down before waiting for an opportunity to attack.

The situation on the pitch was unfavourable, and the thinking of the team was not uniform, and Arsenal's formation was disjointed, with big holes at both ends of the pitch.

Exposing such a hole in front of a top team like Manchester City is punishable.

In the two minutes from the 71st minute to the 73rd minute, Manchester City completed two quick counterattacks in a row after two front-court tackles, with Lin Quan and Son Xingmin scoring a goal each.

In the blink of an eye, the score was 1-3, and Arsenal were leading ten minutes ago, but now they are two goals behind.

The Arsenal fans who came to the stadium were all dumbfounded, and some people held their heads in disbelief, full of questions:

What the hell is wrong with our team?

Why do you feel so can't help fighting?

Before the other party could exert force, we had already fallen?

"Damn, you shouldn't trust Arsenal!"

"Alas, it's unrealistic to rely on Arsenal to stop Manchester City!"

On the Internet, some fans who hoped that Arsenal would stop Manchester City saw Arsenal's rapid collapse in the second half, and they scolded one by one.

Many of these people are not Arsenal fans, they are Manchester United fans, Liverpool and Chelsea fans.

The reason why they support Arsenal between Manchester City and Arsenal is simply because they don't want to see Manchester City win!

So if Arsenal don't perform as well as they expected, they won't be merciful when they scold.

"That's right, that's the gunslinger I'm familiar with!"

"Hehe, with the lineup of the Gunners, it can't be our Blue Moon opponent, I don't know what those people are expecting?"

"Ah Kun's performance in this game is good, he obviously had a chance to shoot just now, but he passed the ball to Lin Quan, it's really a team!"

"yes, seeing Ah Kun's form recover makes me happier than winning the game!"

"Hehe, you are all praising Akun and Lin Huang, I'm going to praise that newcomer, Sun Xingmin's performance in this game is also very good, he not only scored a goal, but also played a very threatening counterattack on the side, effectively containing the opponent's defensive strength!"

"Yes, although this guy's foot skills are not as good as Lin Huang and Ah Kun, they are enough, and they are very practical, and his shooting skills in front of the goal are also excellent, and the goal efficiency is very high!"

"I did the math, since he joined, he has scored 9 goals in all competitions, an average of 0.65 goals per game, and the efficiency is a bit terrifying!"

Some Manchester City fans counted Son Heung-min's goal efficiency in all competitions since he joined the team, and the results attracted an exclamation.

"Tsk, this goal efficiency, the price of 30 million euros is too worthwhile!"

"It's worthy of Pep Guardiola, you can pick up treasures every time!"

"It is said that this person was snatched from Tottenham, seeing Son Heung-min's performance so good, Tottenham should be crying and fainting in the toilet now, right?"

On Tottenham's side, their chairman Levy was really angry at this time.

Since Son Heung-min joined Manchester City, he has been keeping an eye on the other side's performances.

Although he was once very optimistic about Son Xingmin and wanted to introduce him, but since Son Xingmin joined Manchester City, he had only one thought in his heart:

I hope that Son Heung-min will not be able to play and score goals in Manchester City, and his value will plummet, and no one wants it.

In this case, Manchester City will lose 30 million transfer fees and a lot of salary expenses in vain!

However, things backfired, and things turned out exactly the opposite of what he expected.

After joining Manchester City, Son Heung-min did not win a starting position, but he came off the bench many times to make contributions, and he also performed well in the limited number of starts.

What's even more terrifying is that after continuous observation and tracking, Levy keenly found that this kid has risen after joining Manchester City.

His dribbling and breakthrough ability has improved significantly from when he was in the Bundesliga!

This shows that he is not the strongest now, he is still improving and growing, and he will become even stronger in the future!

At the thought of this result, Levy was so angry that he vomited blood!

I can only curse one more sentence in my heart: damn Manchester City!

……

"Damn Manchester City!"

"Why don't you die obediently?"

Like Levy, there are also Arsenal fans.

In various bars in north London, seeing Manchester City score three goals in ten minutes like chopping melons and vegetables, directly beating Arsenal stupidly, Arsenal fans scolded angrily.

If it weren't for the hope of that first-half goal, they wouldn't have reacted so much!

Obviously, they have already seen the dawn of victory, but in the end, victory is still so far away from them!

What exactly will Arsenal have to do to beat Manchester City?

Arsene Wenger was also thinking about it, and the previous few wins had made him think his team was on the right track.

But after today's game, Wenger is soberly aware that there is still a gap between the current Arsenal and the top teams, and the gap is still very large.

It is an accident to be reversed once, but if it is reversed continuously, it is not an accident!

Arsenal now lack the ability to turn their advantage into a winning advantage, and a one-goal or two-goal lead does not guarantee them a victory.

It seems that the practice of not buying players in the summer window is indeed a big deal.

Thinking of this, Wenger began to regret it again.

He remembered another world-class striker he had missed, Luis Suarez.

After his move to Barcelona, Suarez's performance was obvious to all.

In the forward position, he is definitely ranked in the top five in football today, and he is one of the top strikers.

But such a player was missed by Arsenal again.

When Suarez was banned by the FA for biting people in a match, his value dropped a lot.

Arsenal were already in talks with Liverpool at the time, and even with the player himself.

However, in order to keep the price down, after learning about Liverpool's psychological price, they made an offer of 40 million and one pounds, which made Liverpool feel humiliated and sent people to Barcelona in a fit of rage.

Although the price of 40 million pounds is not cheap, the transfer prices of Ozil and Sanchez, which Arsenal have bought in recent years, are around 40 million pounds, which is not much more expensive than Suarez.

If he had been so calculating and a little more generous, this transfer might have been successful.

When the time comes, Arsenal, which has a top-tier midfield lineup such as Mesut Ozil, Sanchez and Suarez, will definitely be a lot better than them now!

It's a pity!

After taking a big lead, it was difficult to pose a threat to Manchester City because Arsenal had no fighting spirit.

With a big wave of his hand, Pep Guardiola sent a couple of substitutes out to warm up.

Iheanacho is on the warm-up list!

A few minutes later, City made another change, with Heheanacho coming on to replace Sergio Aguero, who had been outstanding in the game.

Although Aguero has recovered from his injury, Guardiola still does not dare to take too many risks, and since there is no suspense in the game, let him come down to rest to avoid any accidents.

After Aguero saw the substitution card on the sidelines, he quickly ran down, high-fived the substitute Iheanacho, walked to Guardiola's side, and took the initiative to hug Guardiola.

Some players feel very upset when they are substituted, and even anger the coach because of it.

But Aguero won't do that, because he knows that Guardiola is really doing it for his own good.

"Well done, Ah Kun, go rest!"

Guardiola originally just planned to give the other party a high-five, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to give him a hug, so he also hugged the other party and patted Aguero on the back.

A few minutes later, Guardiola made another personnel change, bringing on Nasri and replacing Lin Quan.

When Lin Quan left the field, he also hugged Guardiola warmly, and rubbed his hand on him a few times.

After Lin Quan left, Guardiola glanced down at his coat and was shocked to find a large amount of sweat, mud and grass clippings stuck to it.

Good boy, you are treating me as a rag!

glanced back at Lin Quan, but saw Lin Quan chatting with Aguero innocently, as if he didn't know what was going on.

The camera captured the scene and projected him onto the big screen on the set.

After seeing this scene, the fans at the scene laughed out loud.

"Hehe, the relationship between Lin and Guardiola is really good!"

Martin Taylor also couldn't help but laugh a little after seeing this scene.

"That's not it, people are father and son, and when they go into battle, can the relationship be bad?"

Andy Gray, who was on the side, couldn't help but roll his eyes, feeling that his partner had said a word of nonsense.

Guardiola likes to be like that for a Messi who is not related to him, let alone to his son?

After Lin Quan and Sergio Aguero both left, Manchester City's attacking power dropped a lot.

However, Arsenal had become a frightened bird at this time and did not take advantage of the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

On the contrary, it was still Manchester City who laid siege to the Gunners in the final moments.

Iheanacho was lively in the final moments, and a pick in front of goal drew an exclamation from the commentator.

It's a pity that this guy's shooting skills are a little lacking, and the shot is too positive, which is easily defused by Cech.

In the end, after a fierce battle, Manchester City won 3-1 at Arsenal's home stadium.

However, due to the other game, Leicester City defeated Everton 3-2, so that the difference between the two sides remained at 6 points and was not opened.

It seems that the two teams will face off in the last direct showdown in the first half of the season!
