330. Strength is not as good as others

"Marseille has pushed this too deeply! They did not put enough pressure on Manchester City midfielder! It would not be a good thing to continue like this!" BT Sports commentator Savage didn't understand Marseille's excessive retreat.

Everyone has different ideas about tactical response. Did Tottenham's pressing tactics work against Manchester City in the last game? Yes, Manchester City cannot control the ball too much.

Although they lost a big score, Savage still feels that Tottenham's approach is right, and you can't put any pressure on Manchester City's midfielder without any pressure.

But for Bup, this negative defensive posture is fine. Marseille only needs one or two successful counterattack opportunities.

He is afraid that the formation is too loose.

In the commentary, Savage even used weakness to describe Marseille, but the weak Marseille did not concede the goal in the first half.

Manchester City slowed down the pace in the first half, but the players' creativity was not displayed, and the state did not look so wonderful. Marseille did a good job on the defensive end, and it did not give Manchester City too many opportunities.

The closest chance to score was in the 32nd minute. Marseille made a foul outside the penalty area and allowed Manchester City to get a set piece opportunity. De Bruyne's penalty was of very high quality, but unfortunately he still failed to score.

"Manchester City has too many games, and I think they are not enough in personnel reserves!" Savage was a little surprised by Manchester City's poor form. This season, Wensheng did have many cards in his hand, but he was basically concentrated in the midfield and backcourt. He has a wealth of rotation players, but the frontcourt is not that wonderful.

Nasri is not counting on this year. Dogs are injured from time to time, and then Chamberlain can play, but his ability is not very good, and his tacit understanding with the team is not enough. For use, Wen Sheng can really use it. De Bruyne and Silva are the main players in the national team. Last season, De Bruyne was one of the most attended players in the team. This season, it is predictable that it may be in poor condition occasionally.

So in the first half, Manchester City did not bring too much threat to Marseille on the one hand, but on the other hand, the condition was not enough to bring Marseille. Of course, Manchester City almost made no mistakes on the defensive end, and Marseille failed to get a single shot.

Wensheng was also a little sad. The team's performance in the first half did not make him very satisfied. The team controlled the ball, but the rhythm lacked changes. Marseille must be happy to play like this in the second half.

So when he was in the midfield, he asked players to pay attention to the combination of long and short passes, and sometimes he needed to speed up the game.

Marseille's response in the second half did not change, while Manchester City had some changes. When the rhythm changes were used, there were naturally more opportunities. Unfortunately, Aguero began to enter the wave stage again.

This time, Wensheng was very decisive and replaced Aguero with Guideti in more than 60 minutes.

Guideti has spent a lot of energy on him this season. At least from the tests of training results and physical data, Guideti is gradually recovering, and Guideti has performed well in the pre-match training. Given Guideti has both speed and height, Wensheng boldly took a risk.

The commentators called Wensheng's substitutions incomprehensible, but could they have Wensheng's understanding of Guideti?! Obviously not.

After playing, Guedti was very active, running very actively, and he survived a lot in the frontcourt. Manchester City soon broke the deadlock in the 72nd minute, and Guedti scored the goal.

The goal had a hint of luck, and De Bruyne's long shot was refracted to Guideti's feet. Guideti cleverly blocked the ball with his legs and sent the ball into the goal guarded by Mandanda.

Relying on this goal, Manchester City won a victory in this game.

After Guedti scored a goal, Bup's Marseille had thought about putting it in the face, but their mentality was not firm. They were injured by Manchester City's backcourt control. The game ended, Marseille, who played away, completed only 5 shots, and all 5 shots occurred in the second half, and their shots hit the goal frame range were zero.

Another defeat, lost in five European games, and Baup didn't know what to say. It was a bad result to stick to his own style and take the initiative. Every team in the same group could play more than two goals. Just be more careful, look, you still can't escape the fate of losing.

Of course, from the whole game, Marseille has obviously made progress, at least focusing on defense. Although they gave Manchester City a lot of shots, Manchester City only had just four shots in the goal frame, so it was also thankful that they lost one goal.

"It is always not easy to play against opponents like Manchester City! Their strength is very strong, much stronger than us. We also hope to cause some trouble for them here, but unfortunately this did not happen! I feel sorry for the result!" Bop helplessly admitted at the post-match press conference that Manchester City's strength is stronger. It is not that we are not working hard enough, but that the enemy is too strong.

Before the game, media from all sides knew that the previous four games Marseille was really the weakest chicken in the group. With Manchester City at home, losing was simply foreseeable. Only one of them lost, which is indeed very good.

So at the press conference, the focus of these reporters was not on whether you lost or not, but on whether you were not dismissed from get out of class.

"I think our situation is getting better. We were not in good shape some time ago, but now we are gradually getting better! I don't know my future, but I won't quit!" Bup expressed his attitude.

Many French journalists believe that Bop is very likely to be dismissed in this game. After all, Manchester City head coach Wen Sheng is a famous plague god, and he has recently been fighting two opponents.

But later, Marseille chairman La Bruna made a clear statement in an interview, "Now is not the right time to discuss the position of Bopp. We need to reverse the decline as soon as possible! The team cannot continue like this!"

This is a reservation, but the meaning is also obvious, and Bowp will not be dismissed for the time being.

It is a very regrettable for Marseille to not get a point, but for Manchester City, it is a bit unreasonable to score a goal by only one goal from his opponent. Thinking of the team's slashing a few times just now, Marseille?! The strength is probably a little worse than Tottenham!

The reporters asked Wensheng if he was satisfied with the final score. Wensheng said angrily: "I am very satisfied!"

The reporters also said that Manchester City did not look as passionate as in the league. Wen Sheng responded: "The most important thing is the victory of the game, and the score is second!"

By blatantly calling out such a theory, reporters would inevitably put Wen Sheng in the hat of the theory of victory.

These reporters are not the only ones who can't stand Manchester City's style in this game. When Savage summarized this game in the live broadcast room, he said that Manchester City played too passionately in this game and the pace was too slow.
