    In the Premier League, the Manchester duo began to compete in their best form.

    After the draw between the two sides, they have achieved seven consecutive victories, and this seven-game winning streak is just the beginning of their winning streak, not the end!

    In the twenty-third round, Manchester City defeated Portsmouth 3-2 away from home, and Manchester United swept Hull City 5-0 at home!  The Manchester duo have won eight games in a row.

    In the twenty-fourth round, Manchester City defeated Stoke City 3-0 at home, and Manchester United beat Everton 1-0 away!  The Manchester duo have won nine games in a row.

    The following midweek, Manchester United took a break, and Manchester City played in the fourth round rematch of the FA Cup. Finally, they defeated Derby County away from home with a score of 4-1 and entered the fifth round.

    In the twenty-fifth round, Manchester City defeated Middlesbrough 1-0 at home, while Manchester United defeated West Ham United by the same score away from home. The Manchester duo also achieved ten consecutive victories.

    Such strong results have made other Premier League teams feel dumbfounded. Neither Liverpool nor Chelsea have performed particularly well recently. Manchester City currently has 62 points, Manchester United has 59 points, and Liverpool ranks third.  With only 54 points, they are already eight points behind Manchester City. Chelsea is even worse. They have not performed well recently. They only have 49 points, which is a full thirteen points behind Manchester City!

    This season¡¯s Premier League championship will fall to Manchester ¨C this has almost become the consensus of many people.

    The following Sunday, the two Manchester teams will face off - not in the league, but in the FA Cup.

    Even if this is the Manchester Derby, even if this is already the fifth round of the FA Cup, Dick still sent out all the substitutes in the game - he made it clear that he wants to focus all his attention on the league and the Champions League, and the Champions League.  The knockout rounds are coming soon, and the league has not left Manchester United behind. The competition now is who can concentrate more. It is normal to give up in the FA Cup. It is only the fifth round anyway, and we still have to win the championship.  Playing several games, rather than involving energy, losing this game may not be a bad thing.

    In the end, Manchester City lost the game as they wished in the away game. The score of 1 to 2 allowed Manchester United to enter the sixth round. They eliminated last year's triple crown champion Manchester City in two consecutive home cups. This made Manchester United fans  I felt like I was letting out a bad breath, but Ferguson was smiling bitterly

    Apart from anything else, the League Cup final will definitely involve some energy from Manchester United, and even if they use substitutes in the following games of the FA Cup, Manchester United's strength will be slightly damaged. Now Manchester City can be said to have nothing to do.  You just need to concentrate on playing the league and the Champions League. After all, the league is the foundation, and the Champions League is what Manchester City must attack if they want to become a top giant. Dick sees this very clearly. The League Cup and the Football League are  The General Cup, after winning the Champions League last season, is already dispensable this season. Dick has been using all his substitutes to play in these two cups to train his substitutes and maintain their condition, which has been proved.  Although it cannot be said that the opponent deliberately lost these two games, it can be regarded as one of the opponent's strategies. If they lose to Manchester City in both the League and Champions League, who will remember Manchester United's losses in the League Cup and FA Cup.  Did China eliminate Manchester City?

    Dick is only in his second year coaching Manchester City and is unlikely to achieve very good results. Under such circumstances, he decisively gave up the less valuable League Cup and FA Cup and made an all-out effort to launch an impact in the League and Champions League.  , can be regarded as playing lightly. Who can really think that Manchester City has been defeated in such a game?

    In the twenty-sixth round, Manchester City went to an away game to challenge Liverpool, while Manchester United faced Blackburn at home. Next, the two sides will compete in the Champions League. Manchester City's opponent is the powerful Inter Milan, and Manchester United got a good draw.  , a team like Sporting Lisbon seems unlikely to cause too much trouble for Manchester United moving forward.

    Under such circumstances, Dick rotated part of the main team in the away game - the reason is simple. Manchester City is still three points ahead. Such a leading score is not enough for Manchester City to sit back and relax, nor will it be exhausted after one game.  , so now Manchester City can still afford to lose. In such a knockout match, Manchester City now needs to focus more on the Champions League, and the next round may be easier, otherwise it will be too unreasonable. Now it is better to focus  Focus, it¡¯s better to play well in the Champions League

    Benitez was holding back this opportunity to defeat Manchester City and keep his hope of winning the championship. Unfortunately, Manchester City, who played half the main force, did an excellent job defensively. They almost completely blocked Liverpool's attack and counterattacked.  Di Natale scored a goal. Although Liverpool's desperate attack recovered a point in the second half, they failed to achieve the final victory and watched Manchester City take away from Anfield Stadium.Score!

    "I'm very satisfied to be able to take away a point from the away game. Really, such a point is enough for us to continue to be ranked first in the standings. Under such circumstances, it is not a big deal to end the winning streak"

    Dick's understatement after the game was more like irritating Benitez. After the draw, Manchester City's winning streak was fixed at ten games. However, Manchester United continued their winning streak with a two-match home win.  Defeating Blackburn and achieving eleven consecutive victories, it also narrowed the gap with Manchester City to one point!

    Under such circumstances, the point gained in the away game is indeed very important.

    After the game, Dick took the Manchester City team and flew to Milan - the place where he had lived for three years.

    Regarding this game, many people have been paying attention to it for a long time - when Mourinho became the head coach of Inter Milan, some people had speculated on this possibility, but no one expected that the two sides would be in the Champions League so early.  They met in the knockout round. Inter Milan only finished second in the group, which is a bit surprising. As for Inter Milan, their current situation is not particularly good. Materazzi and Cannavaro are both injured and unable to play.  Of course, they themselves are already very old.

    Manchester City¡¯s personnel loss is Inter Milan¡¯s old player Di Natale. He was injured after scoring in the last round of the league. This makes Manchester City¡¯s striker substitutes seem a bit stretched.

    When Dick led the team to Milan, he was warmly welcomed by Inter Milan fans.

    It has to be said that Mancini's actual performance in leading the team is not bad. He won the league championship in one season, which has made Inter Milan fans extremely excited in the past. However, compared with his predecessor Dick, his performance  It seems a bit lackluster. In addition, he has never been able to control people's hearts in the locker room and is not loved by the management. It is normal to be dismissed after one season, but Mourinho is much smarter.  As soon as he took office, he announced that Inter Milan needed to start anew. At the same time, he also had a very good relationship with Moratti and others. Although he was constantly criticized by the media, he still got the job even though his results were only slightly better than Mancini.  Sufficient support.

    "I hope Inter Milan will continue to be good, this is a great team."

    Dick also expressed his goodwill. After all, Inter Milan is the team he has stayed in the longest so far and is also the team with the best results. Now it is inevitable to have tit-for-tat on the court. However, off the court, Dick  Ke Dao will not do anything to harm his own image.

    What's more, Manchester City had some cooperation and personnel exchanges with Inter Milan before. Moratti is now putting a lot of effort into the Middle East. Inter Milan has held training camps in the Middle East for several years. Such exchanges have made both sides happy.  There is less of a sense of tension between clubs.

    For Mourinho, he knows that if he wants to lead the team to reach the top, Dick is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed. Although he won the Champions League once before, Dick was eliminated by Manchester United very early that time.  , and when they competed in the Champions League twice, they both lost at the feet of Dick. Now his Inter Milan is still in the mix, but Manchester City has reached a certain peak. The situation of Inter Milan in this game  It was not good, so Mourinho also chose to keep a low profile.

    Of course, he will not give up this game. The game is two rounds, and Manchester City cannot eat the current Inter Milan in one go.

    Inter Milan now has a lot of property left by Dick, and Dick is very familiar with them, while Manchester City and Mourinho are relatively unfamiliar. Even though he played against Manchester City last season, this season Manchester City and Manchester City are relatively unfamiliar.  There are some differences compared to last season, especially in the control of the midfield, which has changed a lot from last season.

    "Inter Milan has changed a lot now. I think this game will not be easy to play." Dick said to Marriner.

    "It won't change too muchgoalkeeper Cesar, right back Maicon, left back Zanetti, center back probably a combination of Cordoba and Chiellini, midfielders Mascherano and Santiago  Ned, Muntari and Stankovic, forwards Ibrahimovic, Adriano there won't be many changes," Marriner said after thinking about it.

    "Not necessarily. Although this lineup can be regarded as Inter Milan's main lineup this season, this lineup is too familiar to us. It is impossible for Mourinho not to know this. Don't forget, they also have two players this year.  A very good little guy, maybe there will be a lot of changes in them." Dick laughed.

    "You mean Thornton and Balotelli? Balotelli may start. Adriano's condition is not very good, but in this way, their impact will be a bit weak. As for Thornton  ¡­Is he replacing Maicon or Zanetti???I feel it is unlikely. Maicon's assists are irreplaceable. Zanetti's defense is also an indispensable part of Inter Milan's defense. I'm afraid there will be no change in this point.  "Marina thought it was a bit incredible after thinking about it.

    "That's not necessarily true." Dick laughed loudly: "Maybe Thornton can really start. Balotelli is not very likely to start."

    "Thornton startsI don't believe it" Marriner shook his head.

    "How about making a bet?" Dick said with a wicked smile.

    "Just bet, can you guess right every time?"

    Two days later.

    When Manchester City got Inter Milan's starting lineup, Marriner looked at Dick with a ghostly look.

    "What's the matter?" Dick asked knowingly.

    "How did you know that Thornton would start" Marriner said incredulously. In Inter Milan's starting lineup, Thornton suddenly appeared at the left back position, while Zanetti was pushed into the center.  field, forming a midfield with Mascherano, Sneijder and Muntari

    Dick smiled and said nothing. Of course he would not tell Marriner. That was because he was very impressed by Thornton - the full-back became famous in one fell swoop when he froze Ronaldo in the Champions League knockout round. Although now Inter Milan's  The opponent has been replaced by Manchester City, and Mourinho will probably not miss this opportunity to stand out
