David Silva's return from injury is good news for Manchester City.

Guardiola, however, is feeling a bit of a headache.

During the winter break, too many wide players were bought, and now there are many wide players in the team, and David Silva's return will further intensify the competition for this position.

With David Silva's past performances, there is no doubt about his quality.

But these substitutes performed very well, and they may not be convinced if they were rashly pressed on the bench.

That's why this question makes him feel so much headache!

……

On March 3, the 28th round of the English Premier League began.

Just three days after the Carabao Cup final, Manchester City have once again met old rivals Liverpool.

This time, though, City weren't as lucky as before.

At Anfield, Manchester City opened the scoring but Leroy Sane's celebration angered the Liverpool players and the two sides almost got into a fight, with even Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp on the sidelines erupting in a verbal altercation.

The relationship between these two has always been very good, and they once cherished each other, but this time, after the emotional situation, they also left their former friendship behind and couldn't care about anything.

Liverpool, which was originally backward and suppressed on the field, was completely ignited with anger, and they all exploded one by one and played at a super level.

Forced to reverse the score before the end of the first half, although Manchester City equalized in the second half, but the crazy Liverpool state has been completely up, how to play.

They scored three goals in 13 minutes from the 65th minute to the 78th minute to rewrite the score to 5:2!

Although Lin Quan scored a direct goal with a free kick in the late stages of the game, he was unable to save the team, and in the end, Manchester City failed to win the game, losing 3-5 to Liverpool.

The Liverpool fans who came to watch the game were crazy after the game.

In the eyes of Liverpudlians, this is not just an ordinary league, but also a battle of revenge!

After a big win over Manchester City at home, they finally got their wish for the humiliation they had beaten at Anfield!

If this revenge is not avenged, then they will not be able to stand up in front of Manchester City.

More Reds fans are starting to see this victory as the beginning of Liverpool's rise!

Even the world's top team, Manchester City, can beat, what else can't we Liverpool do?

And Klopp, who led the team to this victory, has a steep rise in the status of Liverpool fans.

Although Liverpool's record in the league this season is very poor, not only is there no hope of winning the title, but even reaching the Champions League is delusional.

And they didn't do well in the cups either, they just lost the League Cup.

However, to be able to defend Anfield's glory by beating Manchester City on their home turf is enough to satisfy them!

Jurgen Klopp has been in the team for most of the season, and fans can tell that he has something as long as they are not blind.

It's just that due to the level of the players and the depth of the team's squad, the power of his set of things has not yet been fully developed.

By the time the summer window comes, they have plenty of money and time to strengthen their squad, and Liverpool will definitely get stronger next season!

In addition to Klopp's presence giving Liverpool fans hope, the presence of another young player in their squad also makes them very hopeful for the future.

That man is Coutinho!

In this game, Liverpool's winger Coutinho was in an extremely hot state, not only scoring two goals like Lin Quan, but also an assist!

After the game, he was also awarded the best player of the match for his outstanding performance of scoring three goals.

After this game, Coutinho's fame has become famous and has attracted the attention of countless giants.

Barcelona, who were rumored to be interested in him, couldn't sit still at all at this time and had begun to count the money and wanted to bring him to Camp Nou in the summer window.

And Coutinho's old club Inter Milan also took the opportunity to extend an olive branch to him, hoping to bring him back to Meazza!

In addition, Bayern, Real Madrid, Grand Paris and other teams have also thrown olive branches to him.

For a while, Coutinho became a sweet spot in the transfer market and was sought after countless times!

Of course, Liverpool are also hoping to keep the scorer.

In fact, Pep Guardiola also noticed Coutinho, and he watched the performance of his opponent.

However, Pep Guardiola has no intention of buying Coutinho at all.

First, Manchester City's wingers are piled up, and there is no shortage of people at all.

Second, he knows very well that Coutinho's performance at this time is inseparable from the support of Liverpool's tactical system.

Coutinho has a high tactical position under Jurgen Klopp, being at the heart of the team's attacking midfield, and he has free fire at Liverpool.

And once you leave Liverpool and go to other teams, I am afraid that there may not be such a good treatment.

When the time comes, throw him in a position that he is not familiar with, and his performance may not be so good.

However, not everyone is as calm as Guardiola, and Barcelona, which lost Neymar and caused chaos in the team, is now a little delirious, and when he sees the good seedlings on the side, he wants to take it!

Since it was not a transfer period, Barcelona did not communicate directly with the Liverpool club, but privately contacted the player's agent, planning to negotiate the conditions with the player himself first, and then spend money to buy the player after getting the player.

That way, there will be a lot less variables!

I don't know if Barcelona's things are not too secretive, or if they were put on the table.

Their private contact with Coutinho's agent was exposed by the media!

This incident caused a strong reaction from Liverpool, who condemned Barcelona's behavior and immediately opened contract renewal negotiations against Coutinho, wanting to completely deal with Coutinho so that he would not be poached.

Liverpool's last thigh to be poached was Suarez, whose departure has caused Liverpool's record to plummet.

Liverpool, who have eaten a trench and grown wise, will not let others easily abduct their core if they say anything this time.

……

Liverpool, who won the game, was tired, and Manchester City, who lost, seemed to be fine.

In the 29th round of the league, Manchester City sat at home and defeated Aston Villa 5-0.

In the first half, the two teams did not achieve anything, and they exchanged blanks.

However, after the second half, Manchester City suddenly came to the fore, scoring four goals in just 14 minutes from the 48th minute to the 62nd minute.

Lin Quan scored a hat-trick and Son Heung-min scored a goal.

In the 66th minute, substitute David Silva also scored to help the team extend the score to 5:0.

If it weren't for the 73rd minute, the Manchester City player missed a penalty, the score might have been extended to 6:0.

But it doesn't really matter anymore, one more goal or one less goal won't affect them to get a win and get three points!

In the first half, when the team couldn't open the game, Pep Guardiola sat on the bench and was a little worried about the state of the players.

When the team scored frequently in the second half, Guardiola couldn't help but feel a little sorry for the opponent:

This is too ruthless, isn't it?

The opposing players are already starting to doubt their lives......

The highlight of this league game is the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham.

These two teams are rivals, and every encounter between the two teams is full of gunpowder.

This game was no exception, at White Hart Lane, both teams received a total of 8 yellow cards and 1 red card.

Arsenal were sent off after taking the lead in the first half, and Tottenham took advantage of the numerical advantage to launch a vigorous counter-attack in the second half.

Harry Kane and Alderweireld scored in quick succession to make it 2:1.

Just when everyone thought Arsenal were powerless and Tottenham were about to win the north London derby, Arsenal's thigh Sanchez stepped up.

In the 76th minute of the second half, receiving an assist from Bellerin, Sanchez scored and helped ten-man Arsenal equalize in an extremely unfavorable situation.

The score remained 2-2 until the end, with Arsenal lucky to escape, while Tottenham were sadly unable to win at home.

Elsewhere, Chelsea's form continued to slump as they were held to a draw at home to Stoke City.

Liverpool continued their good form by coming back from behind to win.

Leicester City scored the winning goal and picked up the three points after a hard-fought battle away from home from Riyad Mahrez.

The most unfortunate of all was Manchester United, who was sent off after receiving two yellow cards in the 24th and 26th minutes of the first half against West Bromwich Albion.

Mourinho on the sidelines was stunned when he saw this scene.

This referee is fucking committing a crime!

Juan Mata has never received a red card in the Premier League for so many years!

Why the hell did you give him two yellow cards in two minutes and send him off the pitch, isn't that against us Manchester United?

Jose Mourinho lodged a strong protest with the fourth official, during which he was even booked by the referee for using some foul language.

And after receiving the yellow card from the referee, Mourinho applauded the referee and gave him a thumbs up!

The referee was naturally not used to him, and a red card sent him to the stands!

The game has just begun, Manchester United are one man less, and the manager has been expelled from the game, how can this game be played?

Originally, their recent form was not very good, and now they are forced to fight with ten people, so the ending will naturally not be better.

In the end, the ten-man United lost 0-1 away to their opponents, dropped one place in the league standings, and were overtaken by Liverpool and fell to seventh place.

At this time, they are a full 25 points away from Manchester City at the top of the table!

This huge point difference proves that the two teams are not of the same grade at all!

Manchester United fans, who had high hopes for Mourinho at the start of the season, are now in complete despair.

Since Alex Ferguson's retirement, Manchester United seem to have fallen into complete depravity, and no one else can change that.

In just three years, they have changed 3 coaches, but none of them can lead them out of the quagmire!

Could it be that Manchester United is really going to sink forever?

Manchester City fans would have seen their neighbours unlucky, and they would have spoken a few taunts.

But now, they have lost interest in continuing to taunt Manchester United.

As if in their eyes, Manchester United did not deserve to be compared to Manchester City.

Such ignorance by Manchester City fans has made Manchester United fans extremely angry.

But they couldn't do anything, they could only be impotent and angry in their hearts.

……

In the 30th round of the league, in order to prepare for the Champions League knockout round four days later, Guardiola only sent a semi-main and half-substitute squad to away to challenge Norwich, who are at the bottom of the table.

Norwich are deep in the relegation zone, but unlike Aston Villa's side who don't even have a chance to save them, they are not far behind the teams in front of them.

Therefore, Norwich are hoping to pick up points against Manchester City.

While it's unrealistic to take three points from Manchester City, a point is still promising, especially with only a semi-main squad fielded.

So, at the Carrow Road Stadium in Norwich, Manchester City once again encountered the opponent's bus tactics.

It's a pity that this time their big bus treasure Lin didn't come, so the Manchester City players on the field had no way to take the opponent's turtle shell.

Sane, Gabriel Jesus, Heheanacho and others had 18 shots on goal in this game, but only one shot on target and 0 goals.

From this outrageous shooting percentage, you can see how tightly guarded Manchester City's attacking players are!

They didn't have a comfortable adjustment and no chance to shoot at all, and most of the eighteen shots on goal were long-range shots from outside the box, and they were forced shots under interference, and there was no accuracy at all!

The opponent's defense made the players in Manchester City's front field lose their temper!

Hell, if you can defend like this in the previous game, why did you fall into the relegation zone?

Even if you only score 1 point in each game, you will get 29 points in 29 rounds, right?

This point is enough for you to stay relegated!

Norwich City were the most invincible on the bus, but they equalled Manchester City in the number of shots on target in this game.

Although possession was a measly 21 per cent and their shots on goal were just two, they did have one shot on target.

Thanks to the concerted efforts of the Norwich players, they were able to contain Manchester City's attack.

In the end, after 90 minutes, neither team scored, and Norwich got a point.

Despite picking up a point, their direct rivals Sunderland secured the crucial three points with a 3-0 win at home to Everton.

Now, Norwich's situation has become even worse, and the 1 point they finally got from Manchester City is completely unpleasant!

The substitutions were unexpectedly held to a draw away from home, and although Guardiola was a little surprised, he didn't pay much attention to it.

The reason is simple, the lead in the hands of Manchester City is simply too great to withstand such attrition.

Although Leicester City got the win of this game.

However, the difference between the two teams is still 9 points, and there are only 8 rounds left in the league.

To recover 9 points, this is not ordinary!

You can't always count on Manchester City to drop the chain, right?
