Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Poor Kubishli originally wanted to boost his morale, but he didn't expect that although Dick had just served as the head coach of Manchester City, he was no stranger to the Premier League last season, so he just hit him with one sentence.  Kubishli¡¯s weakness¡­

    Curbishli was so angry that he couldn't say anything else. All he wanted was to kill Manchester City at his home court and tell everyone with a victory that no matter how talkative you are, Dick, you have just formed a team.  Can't compare with us!

    In Cubishli¡¯s view, although West Ham United has changed several main players, the basic framework is still there, but what about Manchester City?  It is estimated that he will only use the people he bought. Those players come from all over the world and have rarely cooperated together before. Although there are many stars, but now they can perform well in the first official game?  What a joke!

    With such confidence, Cubishli wants to make a splash at home.

    On August 11, at Upton Park Stadium, the new Manchester City appeared on the road to welcome their first official game.

    Mansour came to the scene to watch the game, and a group of Arabs wearing white robes appeared in the stands, which is rare in the Premier League. Although the Premier League has no shortage of foreign bosses, there seems to be no precedent for Arabs taking over before.

    The British impression of Manchester City now is that it is very oriental - there is a Chinese player, a Chinese coach, and the boss is an Arab from the Middle East. This is quite rare in the Premier League and even in European football.  matter.

    ¡°Don¡¯t forget that we are a team that aims to win the championship. When competing against mid-tier teams, grabbing points is a must Let¡¯s go.¡±

    Dick said an understatement in the locker room and waved the players on to the field. With his current mentality that had gone through many storms, he naturally would not feel uneasy just because he was entering a new league - to put it bluntly,  West Ham United is just a mid-range team in the Premier League

    Although the Hammers have a long tradition and history, in Dick's eyes, they are just an ordinary Premier League team.

    When players from both sides came on the field, West Ham United fans booed Manchester City loudly. The atmosphere in the Premier League is the highest in Europe. Even if there was no enmity between the two sides before, as long as it is the visiting team, they will be  A relentless attack from the home team.

    Dick was a little uncomfortable with this. You must know that when he was in Serie A, except for a few away games in Turin, Florence, Naples, etc., he seemed to have never heard such huge boos

    No matter how loud the boos are, the game still depends on the players playing on the field.

    In the first league game, Dick had no idea of ??retaining his strength. With so many signings, the main lineup has completely changed. At this time, formal games are needed to speed up cooperation and tacit understanding. There is no reason to retain his strength.

    Among the three goalkeepers, Dick chose the young Schmeichel. This was his first appearance for Manchester City. You must know that only four years ago, his father also played for Manchester City. This can be regarded as  What a wonderful story.

    On the defense line, Samuel and Kompany partnered as central defenders, Richards and Barnes appeared at the two full-back positions, the three midfielders were veterans Hamann, Yaya Toure and Parker, and the forward  The ones sent above are Ribery, Torres and Di Natale, which is basically Manchester City's main lineup this season.

    Sitting on the bench are Isaksson, Sun Jihai, Button, Ashley Young and Vassell. The Premier League can only use five substitutes, which gives Dick a headache. He is used to seven substitutes and then leading the team.  The previous bench lineup could have more changes, but five people seemed a bit stretched. Fortunately, he has a lot of all-rounders, especially Sun Jihai, who is almost versatile in the backcourt. Although he is not top-notch, he is still reliable.  , together with Patton in defensive midfield, Young who can play on both wings, and Vassell who can also play several positions on the front line, became his substitute candidates.

    West Ham United fielded a 4-4-2 formation, with local goalkeeper Green as the goalkeeper, Spector and McCartney as the wings in the defense, and Anton Ferdinand and Matthew Upson as the central defender partner.  The midfielders are Ljungberg, Bowyer, Noble and Boamote, and the forward partners are centers Zamora and Bellamy.

    "In terms of strength, West Ham United has declinedbut how well we work together will determine the outcome of this game." Dick whispered to Marriner.

    "The morale of the players is quite high." Mariner replied.

    Dick laughed, the boss was watching from the stands, it was the first game again, it¡¯s no wonder the morale was low

    The morale of the Manchester City players is indeed very high. From the beginning of the game, they started to actively play in the frontcourt.?Grab - The players in Manchester City are of high and low strength, and have great and small reputations, but one thing is the same, that is, they can all run. Even the veteran Hamann, although he is not young, he can  He is famous for running and confrontation, which is why Dick decided to keep him. Button is a player who is prone to impulsivity on the court. Just getting cards will make his attendance rate low. With such a sophisticated back-up player, Barton is famous for his running and confrontation.  The waist is very important as a substitute.

    Under Manchester City's fierce pressing in the frontcourt, West Ham United's defense began to panic, especially the young Anton Ferdinand. Although he is the younger brother of Manchester United superstar Ferdinand, it is obvious that he is as good as him in terms of quality.  Ferdinand was far behind. He was a little panicked when pressed by the Manchester City players. After receiving Bowyer's somewhat casual back pass, he found that Torres had rushed in front of him. In panic, he passed the ball to  Full-back McCartney, but less powerful, Ribery, who jumped in like lightning, intercepted the ball midway!

    West Ham United fans screamed in the stands. Ribery did not hesitate after stealing the ball. He quickly dribbled the ball into the penalty area like a sharp knife, and then resolutely kicked off at a small angle.  When he shot, the ball was slightly higher than the crossbar, shocking Green into a cold sweat.

    "Oops Ribery hit the ball too high He is a little anxious. Di Natale and Torres in the middle have already outflanked them. If they pass the ball, they are more likely to score"

    The commentator commented on the attack just now, and Ribery was also a little regretful. He raised his hand to apologize to Torres and Di Natale. Torres and Di Natale were not thorns in the side, and they expressed their condolences to Ribery.  Give a thumbs up to show that you don't mind.

    "Well, the atmosphere in the Manchester City team is still good. Ribery is the boss in Marseille, and Torres is the flag in Atletico Madrid. It seems that the relationship between the two people is not bad" the commentator continued to comment,  And then they ignored Di Natale¡¯s existence¡­

    Dick nodded slightly. Ribery was indeed a little greedy for credit just now, but the team's integration was not enough, and he also gave Ribery plenty of freedom. This approach was nothing.

    If it had been Ibrahimovic when he was at Inter Milan, such an approach would have been criticized by Dick, but Dick had no intention of doing this if he replaced Ribery - although Ribery also has a weird temper, he and Ibrahimovic  Bu is different, Ribery can play support, and it's not a bad thing to be greedy occasionally.

    And soon, Ribery used his performance to prove that the freedom Dick gave him was completely worth it!

    In the 18th minute, another aggressive pressing from the midfield forced the opponent's midfielder Boa Moute to make a mistake. After Yaya Toure intercepted the ball, he quickly separated the sides. Ribery, who switched to the right, dribbled the ball forward at high speed.  He used his speed to get rid of the opponent's full-back McCartney and then dribbled the ball horizontally into the penalty area. When everyone thought he was about to shoot again, he passed the ball crosswise without any greed for success. Torres in the middle missed it and followed from behind.  Di Natale, who was coming in, fell to the ground to tackle the ball as it rolled over, knocking the ball into the West Ham United goal from one meter in front of the goal!

    "GOOOOOOOOOAL! Antonio Di Natale! A clever follow-up shot in front of the goal! But this goal is even more thanks to Ribery's pass. His pass tore apart West Ham United's defense. Di Natale  It¡¯s just a matter of running into position and knocking the ball in It¡¯s been a great start for Manchester City!¡±

    Di Natale turned around and pointed at Ribery. Ribery happily ran over and hugged him. Torres also ran over. Other Manchester City players also rushed over and began to celebrate them.  The first official goal of the season!

    "Nice coordination." Dick clapped his hands, but sat back without looking particularly happy. In his opinion, such a goal was normal. Manchester City's current forward line is considered the strongest among several lines.  It is easiest to form a tacit understanding - after all, Ribery and Torres are both outstanding, Di Natale is experienced, and the characteristics of the three people are very compatible, so forming a tacit understanding will naturally be faster.

    After taking the lead, the next thing to look at is the midfield and defense-Dick pays more attention to this. Against weaker teams, maybe the outstanding performance of the front line alone is enough to win the game, but when facing  With a stronger team, the performance of the midfield and backcourt is still very, very important.

    In the next game, Manchester City's midfielders began to show their running ability. The three midfielders are all players who can run very well and have excellent confrontation ability. Although West Ham United also adapted to this kind of defense, they were still beaten by Manchester City.  The running impact in the midfield was shattered. On the defense line, Samuel showed his ability to mobilize the defense line very well. He kept filling in at a slightly deeper position, while Kompany was in the middle.  A little ahead, they attack and intercept, confronting each other head-on. When defending, the two full-backs also withdraw a little to help.In the end, under such defense, West Ham United's offense did not have much effect.

    However, Schmeichel's performance was not very good. Manchester City's defense prevented West Ham United from forming many threatening shots. However, once he rashly attacked and hit the ball not far, Ljungberg almost caught an empty goal.  Chance¡­¡­

    However, before the end of the first half, Manchester City's front three once again created an opportunity. After Ribery broke through from the wing, he passed behind the West Ham defense. Torres quickly inserted into the goalkeeper and shot the ball directly into the goalkeeper.  The goal is dead!

    "Fernando Torres! Torres, who is worth 25 million pounds, scored! The Premier League champion this season showed his value and scored a goal for Manchester City in his first appearance! Return to Dick  Torres, his subordinate, seemed very happy. He rushed off the field and hugged Dick It has to be said that although this Manchester City team has not yet fully formed, their strikers have begun to have a tacit understanding. Ribery assisted twice, Torres and  Di Natale scored one goal each, which is a good start!¡±

    The final score was 3-0. In the second half, Young, who came on as a substitute, hit back after breaking through from the wing. Yaya Toure, who inserted in the middle, volleyed in the penalty area and scored, locking the score at 3-0. Kubishli was helpless.  Watching Dick stand up from the coaching bench, celebrating his first victory in the Premier League
