146. The decisive moment
The big boss Mansour didn't come to the team at all, but he specially recorded a video to congratulate the team on winning the League Cup, and he especially thanked the coaching team and the players of the team.
After the celebration at Wembley Stadium, the whole team did not return to Manchester City, but gathered for dinner under the leadership of Mubarak.
The prize money for the League Cup is not high, but Wen Sheng could feel that Mubarak also attaches great importance to it. He expressed his gratitude to the entire team several times in the toast.
Wen Sheng also went on stage and said a few words. At this time, he hoped to stimulate his players with this championship and remind everyone not to be immersed in this!
"First of all, I have to say that winning the championship must be very good, right?"
The players cheered and applauded.
"I think it's good, too, but guys, I think it's just the beginning!"
"From August last year to now, two-thirds of our season have passed, and one-third of the schedule has not been completed yet. I want to give it an explanation for this schedule!"
"Decisive moment!"
"From now on, no, to be precise, from the start of this afternoon's game, we have entered the final stage of the season! The League Cup championship is the beginning of this final."
"Guys, remember! Now is the beginning, just the beginning, every game in the future will be the final for us, and we can't make mistakes!"
"I know each of you like this feeling now. I hope that this final tonight will bring you joy into motivation. I believe that you will still taste this feeling in the next two months!"
"Everyone, please work together!" Wen Sheng finished speaking, and there was thunderous applause in the audience.
"It's so good!" Back at the seat, Hawking whispered to Wen Shengdao.
"Thank you, Donald! Ferguson can really hold on!" Wen Sheng cursed, and the resentment hit Ferguson's head.
Since Christmas, except Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United has won all the leagues, and Manchester City has not been able to completely shake them off. It is like putting shackles on Manchester City's neck, making Wensheng feel uncomfortable, and of course this is also motivation.
After a while, Mubarak came to find Wensheng. The two found a quiet corner. Mubarak once again praised and thanked Wensheng for his work.
"I'm just doing my responsibilities! No, Al!" Wen Sheng waved his hand and smiled, "We want to succeed, the support from the upper level, the correct strategy and tactics, and excellent players are indispensable. The credit is not one person, but everyone's!"
"Just as I said before, we choose each other and achieve each other! I hope we can gain better in the future!"
Mubarak was very happy, "Of course, this is of course, I think you can definitely realize your dream here! And I will definitely support you with all my strength!"
"Are you sure about the Champions League?! I hope to enter the semi-finals this season!" Mubarak was barely asking for it in Wensheng, but a tone that expressed hope.
"A normal mind! Man! Champions League events are not just about speaking with strength, but sometimes they also require a little luck! Especially in the knockout stage! I personally think that there is still hope for us to enter the semi-finals, but if we meet Bayern Munich or Barcelona, it will be difficult to say!" Wen Sheng shook his hand and said.
"Ha, do you think they are the best?!"
"In terms of strength, they are the most powerful, and we may be a little worse than them!" Wen Sheng shrugged, "But the Champions League may not be the strongest in the end, so you said you hope to enter the semi-finals, okay, brother, the champion can also be thought about!"
"Do you want it?" Mubarak asked curiously.
"Of course I will! That's the champion, who wouldn't want it?!" Wensheng grimaced, "But the most important thing now is not to take those damn pressures to heart. Prepare carefully every game, play seriously, and then kick one game and forget one!"
.........
Wensheng asked Joey to list all the remaining games on an A3 paper and then copied two copies, which were posted in the locker room at Etihad Stadium and the locker room at Carrington Training Base.
"From the next game against Chelsea, every time we complete a game, we will cross it with a red pen if we win, and if it's a draw, we will cross it with a green pen if it's a defeat, then we will cross it with a black pen! Guys, the game is now on!" Wen Sheng launched the charge horn in the locker room.
As an opponent, Ferguson is also secretly scolding Wensheng. In the history of the Premier League, many strong teams are most likely to lose their chains during Christmas. Manchester United's record after Christmas is unprecedented, which means that Ferguson has not been able to lead Manchester United to lose only two points during the period of "Christmas restart from the Champions League."
If it were other teams, they might have been driven off the throne by Manchester United, who was in such an excellent form, but Manchester City is an exception now. Since losing to Norwich, Manchester City has never tasted the taste of failure. Now there is a League Cup champion in hand and the momentum has been developed.
Sir Jurgent secretly scolded Wen Sheng for taking medicine to the players, but he hadn't lost for so long. Manchester United's celebrities continued to fart, asserting that Manchester City had a test and saying that Manchester City had no experience in winning the championship. Manchester United's follower would bring huge psychological pressure to Manchester City. What they did was just psychological warfare, trying to psychologically influence Manchester City.
"Since December, they said we will face severe tests and we will be turned over! What's the result?! I'm sure we are still the top team now, and some of the home teams are still following us and eating dust!"
"As for the pressure they mentioned, I don't know how to prove it! I can only say that we have won 12 consecutive victories and we only lost one goal. I think this should be the best response to them, right? Besides, I really don't know how much pressure Manchester United can bring to us. I always think that all we need is to defeat ourselves!"
He was so crazy that he was out of bounds. Before the game against Chelsea at mid-week, Wen Sheng immediately refuted some Manchester United legends who were looking for trouble at the press conference, belittled Manchester United's threat and looked like he was a duke.
Benitez and Ferguson were very inconsistent. Before this game, talking about the ownership of the Premier League championship, Benitez immediately replied, "Manchester United performed well, but can they continue to catch up with Manchester City?! I don't think this is easy to do! I think the league championship has basically reached Manchester City's hands!"
In terms of personal relationships, he has no relationship with Wensheng, but he must hate Ferguson. As a former Liverpool coach, as long as he wants to continue to be recognized by Reds fans, he cannot say good things about Manchester United.
Many people disagree with his words out of his background, but The Guardian believes that Benitez has a saying that is right, "Manchester City has formed a momentum, and now they are in good shape, and no one can stop them!"
Chapter completed!
