256. Can't eat and walk around
In the past two years when Mansour first entered Manchester City, not to mention that the top superstar was unwilling to go to Manchester City because of his popularity, even the top coach was quite concerned about his reputation and was unwilling to go to Manchester City. So it was actually a great achievement to be able to invite Mancini back then.
But as time goes by, Soriano comes to power, Mancini has not shown his strength for a long time, and Cook's great achievements back then have disappeared.
Soriano thought about Guardiola wishfully. In fact, it was very difficult for him to hire Guardiola, and reputation was a very important reason.
The game continues after the Crystal Palace players celebrate.
Manchester City players suddenly became very aggressive, became larger in defensive actions, and frequently caused Crystal Palace players to fall to the ground. No one was blind. It was obvious that the players were stimulated after the goal was lost. Of course, Oliver was not blind. If he did not take decisive measures in this situation, it would be possible to perform all the martial arts. The grudges between these two teams... Haha, it goes without saying that it is not easy for everyone to remain calm after the opening.
Scott's yellow card, Barry's yellow card, Kant's yellow card!
In just over ten minutes, three of the two teams got the Yellow Gem Card, and the ball was not running so smoothly.
Mancini expressed all kinds of dissatisfaction on the sidelines. He made a fuss before the game, and insinuated that Manchester United was taken care of by the referee, and now he directly challenged Oliver's authority. Oliver is not old, but he is not polite. In the 32nd minute, he ran to the sidelines to warn Mancini.
Mubarak naturally believes that Mancini's behavior on the side of the court is undoubtedly like a clown. Can you complain loudly like this solve the problem?!
When one person dislikes the other person, he always feels that the other person is full of problems. Mancini is undoubtedly so unlucky at this moment.
Soriano didn't say anything. He had made up his mind to let Mancini get out. Now he put some eye drops on it just to make Mubarak agree with his idea from the bottom of his heart.
Manchester City's tactics are very correct, or the players' tactics are very correct. Their aggressive actions have caused Crystal Palace players to be a little restrained, and the game has been interrupted many times, and Crystal Palace's frontcourt offensive threat has dropped significantly.
Of course, Manchester City itself did not get a good start. Apart from getting yellow cards and warnings, their offense was not highlighted.
Wensheng noticed a situation where Silva and Nasri performed poorly. Tevez is the most active person in Manchester City. This guy is small, strong in body, and has a good sense of balance. He has a strong ability to hold the ball after retreating to receive the ball. Fortunately, Wensheng has aimed at him for a long time and asked Stroman to stick close to him. In addition, Crystal Palace mostly controls the ball, Tevez doesn't have many opportunities to catch the ball.
The game time passed quickly, as if the first half had ended in the blink of an eye.
Crystal Palace temporarily leads Manchester City away from home 1:0.
Mancini recovered some consciousness before halftime and discussed the second half with his coaching team before halftime.
It's interesting to say that so far, the team that scored the most goals in the Premier League is not Crystal Palace or Manchester United, but Manchester City. However, in this game, Mancini never dared to let his team take the initiative to attack. I have to say that it really means to waste his martial arts.
Of course, from a certain perspective, his tactics are correct. Crystal Palace is a team with good control. It has the highest average ball possession rate in the Premier League. Manchester City is not very good at high-level defense. If Mancini is too proactive, it is not unreasonable to worry about giving Crystal Palace too many counterattack opportunities.
When I returned to the locker room, the Manchester City players were not very emotional, and it was obvious that the situation on the court was a bit frustrating for everyone.
Wen Sheng, as a later generation, had long known that Mancini's management level was not high, so he played psychological warfare and emphasized that Manchester City's management level was not good. In fact, this is true. Last season, Manchester City had many internal conflicts, and the team could not be condensed into a rope. This season, my nephew played lanterns - as usual, it can be said that doubts about Mancini were already permeated in Manchester City.
Of course, not everyone comes forward like Richards does to blatantly criticize Mancini’s tactical issues.
However, after a frustrated first half, many players silently believed that Mancini's tactics were shit, and his offensive arrangements were depressing.
Mancini explained the team's tactical arrangements in the second half with a cold face to the tactical board, but the players no longer had much patience to listen. Mancini knew very well that everyone was not satisfied with his tactics, but he would not compromise because he thought that this would win.
If Wensheng was changed, Wensheng would definitely not do this. Sometimes a head coach needs to compromise. He once compromised the players during the game. If the players failed, he naturally knew the meaning of the head coach. Losing a game will help tactical acceptance.
Mancini always treats players with a tough attitude, which of course will make these "stars" feel unhappy.
After Mancini had finished setting up his tactics, the players rested and replenished their physical fitness. Some people began to whisper and disapprove of Mancini's tactics.
Nasri is one of them.
"Damn it, I'm so fed up! Our tactics are like shit!" Nasri whispered to his fellow villager Krish. Mancini was still in the locker room. He used French. Anyway, Mancini was far away from him and couldn't understand.
Krish is depressed. In the first half, Crystal Palace always intentionally hit him on the side. Mkhitaryan, Marjo, and Tarabut brought him a lot of pressure. Silva in the frontcourt was very active, but what if there is any use, Silva, who has weak defensive ability, cannot give him much help. Krish was pressed tightly in the backcourt and could not move, so he was of course not happy either.
After a sneak peek at Mancini, Krish also confessed: "Silva can't bring me any help! His defense is too bad! Tarabut is really hard to defend!"
Tarabut was completely different from his time in the Rangers, and his technical characteristics were still the same. However, the Rangers were weak, and there were not many opportunities for Tarabut to get the ball. However, when they arrived at the Crystal Palace, they controlled the ball and deliberately hit Tarabut on the side, so Tarabut took the ball a lot more times than those on the Rangers.
With too many balls in hand, Tarabut has good personal abilities. You should know that defensive players are always in a weak position compared to offensive players. Tarabut has teammates to respond, so Krish is of course very difficult.
"Maybe he's going to get out after playing this game!" Nasri smiled.
"You believe the media's words too?" Krish also smiled.
"It's definitely not groundless!" Nasri replied.
There are many discussions in the locker room, but Mancini is far away and can't hear the players' whispers clearly. Otherwise, with his personality, some people will definitely not be able to afford it!
