367. The long-lost victory

With a huge advantage in the first leg, Manchester City has basically secured a place in the finals. The second leg of the League Cup semi-finals was held on January 21, but that game is no longer of great significance. Wen Sheng, who has always been cautious, does not think that the game will cause much trouble to Manchester City, let alone friends in the media.

Regarding the League Cup, the media's focus has shifted to who is Manchester City's final opponent. In the first leg of the semi-finals that ended one day earlier than Manchester City, Sunderland defeated the visiting Manchester United 2:1 at home.

At the critical moment, the old guy didn't give him face. Sunderland won Manchester United, which led to Sunderland gaining a slight chance in the finals.

Manchester United really disappointed the media. Manchester United only scored 34 points in the league, which was 13 points behind Manchester City, which ranked first. The difference is quite large. Even Sunderland can't beat the British League Cup. You must know that Sunderland is also deeply involved in the relegation zone this season, and looks the same as West Ham United.

Moyes was crying and said that he didn't want to compete for the League Cup championship. This is a joke. Moyes naturally wanted to advance to the finals and wanted to win the League Cup. That was his life-saving straw. But who could know that Sunderland and West Ham are different. Sunderland is like a chicken-blooded person, and it's not like a relegation team.

Being a reporter has no content to write?! It doesn’t matter, anyway, if you criticize Moyes, he is just ready-made material.

The tragic Moyes was endured by fierce artillery fire from outside public opinion, and this is all fate!

Wen Sheng used a substitute lineup, which was a surprise and risky one, and said that Blackburn was very capable of playing, and said that the Hammer Gang was too weak.

Going north to Newcastle on the weekend, Wensheng can line up the main lineup to play.

Newcastle is not an easy opponent to deal with, and head coach Padu also has real knowledge. Although the boss who cheated on him in the summer of 2013, Padu will step out of the decline at the beginning of the season based on his own lineup, with 33 points in the league, which is only one point less than Manchester United.

However, they are obviously not able to do so recently.

Why can't it work?! It's because the schedule is too dense and Newcastle's bench is not enough and it can't hold on.

After entering the Christmas schedule, Newcastle fought one after another and failed to win three games.

Newcastle has breathed a little slow down this week. They were eliminated in the League Cup and could have a good rest. In order to deal with the battle in the second half of the season, Padu also chose to give up the FA Cup very wisely. Anyway, the boss Ashley doesn't care about the FA Cup.

Newcastle was very hard at St James Stadium, but the main players who had been raising their strength for more than ten days were really hungry, and the pace of this game was very fast.

Padu originally wanted to defend to the death, but Manchester City had too much power and energy. Less than six minutes into the game, Manchester City relied on a positional attack, with Silva assisting Dzeko to head the ball.

Newcastle wanted to give Manchester City a counterattack at home, but who knew that his defense was caught by Manchester City first. In the 13th minute, Manchester City relied on Dzeko to win another goal.

Newcastle, who wanted to defend, could not defend it with confidence. Manchester City players in their hot form firmly controlled the rhythm of the game and launched several attacks on Newcastle's position.

Then when the 90-minute game ended, the score made Newcastle fans very bitter.

5:0! Manchester City's long-lost victory in the league.

"We were not well organized in defense, and shortly after the opening game, the opponent seized the opportunity. This changed the game, and we should have done a little better!" Padu's disappointment with the game was obvious, but he immediately said: "Our two teams don't look at the same level at all, they are much better than us!"

Wen Sheng said after the game: "This game is very important to us. This is the first game that started the second half of the season. I think this is a good start and indicates that we can win a bright future!"

"Daniel, do you think Chelsea has put you in great pressure?! It has brought you extra motivation!" a reporter asked.

Mourinho's Chelsea plays this season and looks quite good anyway, which is quite a bit more courageous. Recently, thanks to Liverpool's behavior of harming others and not being beneficial to oneself, Chelsea's points have been closer to Manchester City. The two teams are only 4 points away, and Arsenal has also narrowed to Manchester City to 5 points. Manchester City has done well enough, but these perverts have also done very well, which is really amazing.

"I don't pay much attention to the standings. It's too early to talk about the league championship! Chelsea is very close to us?! I think you are right. Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool's outstanding performance should be our extra motivation!" Wensheng replied.

After the game, Martin Taylor, the commentator on the scene, conducted a separate interview with Wensheng and asked Chelsea questions.

Last season, Wen Sheng was anxious about his record, but now he is really relaxed. Sadness cannot change the status quo. It is real to bury his head and do his own thing well.

"I don't think there is anything to worry about! Even if there is any worry, this worry is equivalent. I think Mourinho, Wenger, and Rogers will also feel the strong pressure from Manchester City!"

"We are not three years ago again, and I believe the players can withstand this kind of pressure!"

Martin Taylor smiled and nodded, and he asked again: "Daniel, I'm surprised by your success! It's hard to imagine that your young head coach can achieve such a success. I want to ask you any secrets?!"

I don’t have the secret, but I can list several pages of the buyer list. Do you want it? Wensheng complained.

"My secret?!" Wensheng still thought seriously.

"Team?!" Wensheng said.

Martin Taylor almost held his forehead and sighed, "Young man, I'm asking you, why are you asking me the other way around?"

"There is no secret!" Wen Sheng smiled and said, "The team is of course the most important thing. We have a group of players with extremely high levels. This is the premise, the premise of winning everything! We have formed a team, our goals are the same, and everyone can naturally work in one direction!"

"This is simply a general discussion!" Martin Taylor said in anger.

Wensheng grabbed the scalp with embarrassment, "Maybe I'm really empty! But this is indeed my feeling. When the club, the head coach, the goal is consistent, it is also the easiest basis for this team to succeed!"

"I heard that you posted a slogan "Unity is strength" on the training ground. It seems that you put unity first!" Martin Taylor smiled.
