There is such an interesting story circulating in the UK.
Readers of the Daily Mirror think they run the country; readers of the Guardian think they should run the country; readers of The Times actually run the country; readers of the Daily Mail are the ones who actually run the country.
Wife; Financial Times readers actually own the country.
As their names suggest, The Times and Financial Times are the most authoritative newspapers in the UK.
But after Manchester City captured White Hart Lane 3-0 in an away game and defeated Tottenham Hotspur, The Times published a very un-Times headline on its front page the next day.
Manchester City King, beyond imagination!
In this front-page headline, The Times reviewed the opening game last night and believed that Su Dong played a decisive role in this game. He not only scored twice, but also contributed an assist.
Helped Manchester City defeat Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 away from home and scored the first three points of the new season.
"Throughout the entire game, Su Dong is sitting on the front line. He can not only threaten the goal, but also create opportunities for his teammates. He has become the core of the team's offense, making everyone around him revolve around him."
The Times reviewed the course of the game. From the opening, Tottenham Hotspur's attack led to Manchester City being forced and even being shot frequently. The scene was quite embarrassing, but at the critical moment, Su Dong's goal played a key role.
It also sounded the clarion call for Manchester City to counterattack.
"In terms of opening tactics, the experienced Harry completely suppressed the immature Guardiola. The latter's tactics were indeed very sophisticated, but Lao Lei used a wave of opening attacks to almost break through Manchester City's goal and continued for more than 20 years.
Within minutes, it completely suppressed Manchester City and prevented them from launching a decent attack."
The Times believed that Redknapp's tactics were successful, but Lao Lei missed Su Dong.
"Su Dong's goal boosted the morale of Manchester City, but also hit Tottenham's determination. Then the game began to enter the rhythm of Manchester City. Lao Lei and his Tottenham lost the initiative step by step, and were finally attacked by Su Dong.
Score the second goal.”
The Times believes that if the first goal was the clarion call for Manchester City's counterattack, then Su Dong's second goal was the key to winning the game. This goal completely defeated Tottenham Hotspur.
Subsequently, The Times reviewed Su Dong's performance throughout the game and used various data to confirm Su Dong's performance.
As Manchester City's lone forward, Su Dong contributed the most threats to the team and received the most violations from the team. This is enough to prove that he is the most threatening player on the court for Manchester City and is also the most feared target by Tottenham defenders.
"When he came to the Premier League, he didn't even need to make any adaptations before he could perfectly integrate into the team."
"Tall and strong, yet with delicate and flexible foot skills, Su Dong's strong personality is reflected in whether he received a long pass to stop the ball for the first goal or stopped the ball to escape the defensive double-team for the second goal.
ability."
The Times believes that when Su Dong first joined Manchester City, many people expressed doubts and believed that it would be difficult for Su Dong to adapt to the Premier League.
"Such remarks have appeared as early as when he was still playing for Valencia, and they have almost never stopped."
But the Times believes that with this game against Tottenham Hotspur, all the doubters can basically be shut up, because Su Dong's performance does not show any need for adaptation. He is completely
He integrated into the team and fully adapted to the Premier League.
More importantly, he continued his fine tradition of always scoring twice in his first official game with a newly joined team over the past few years, showing his excellent competitive form.
"Su Dong, whose condition and body are at 100%, will contribute even more amazing performances in the future!"
…
If The Times paid more attention to the football match itself, the Guardian, which has always been aggressive in style, published an almost provocative article as its front page headline.
Su Dong is not the second Shevchenko!
In this article, the Guardian not only introduced the game process and Su Dong's outstanding performance, but more importantly, listed a series of evidence in an effort to convince readers that although Su Dong only played one game,
But he has perfectly integrated into the Premier League and has no problems. He is completely different from Shevchenko back then.
The Guardian uses two very different examples.
One is David Silva.
Last season, after David Silva joined Manchester City, Guardiola entrusted him with important tasks, but his initial performance was not satisfactory, and some of him could not adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League, as well as the speed and physical requirements.
requirements.
He gradually regained his form after going through a period of running-in and getting familiar with the rhythm of the Premier League.
"More importantly, David Silva has outstanding foot skills and passing ability."
The opposite of David Silva is Ukrainian nuclear warhead Shevchenko.
The Guardian recalled that when Shevchenko joined Chelsea, he performed well in the Community Shield and scored goals, but it was just a warm-up match. When it came to the Premier League, Shevchenko immediately surrendered.
"According to outside reports, Shevchenko was physically and mentally exhausted after participating in the 2006 World Cup in Germany. After returning to the club, he was not given enough rest and adjustments to allow him to slowly regain his form.
Mourinho couldn't wait to push him into the lineup. As a result, he fell into a situation where the more tired he became, the more he played. The more he played, the worse his performance became. The worse his performance, the less confident he became.
"This formed a vicious cycle, which eventually wore away all Shevchenko's confidence and fighting spirit, causing the world's top striker to encounter the most painful Waterloo of his career at Chelsea."
The Guardian introduced Su Dong after analyzing the processes of these two players.
They believe that Su Dong showed super adaptability in his first Premier League game. He may not even be in his best condition, but he still played a vital role.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "We have no doubt that Su Dong can actually do better, but at White Hart Lane, he has already performed well enough!"
The Guardian believes that Su Dong's first game slapped the faces of those who doubted him, especially the media reporters and fans who have persistently ridiculed and questioned him in the past few years.
"I believe that all fans who watched the opening game of the Premier League, as long as they still have eyes and are not unconscionable, will never question Su Dong again. He blew the clarion call to conquer the Premier League with two goals.
!”
…
At the same time that the two major media outlets were dismissed, all major media and newspapers in the UK, large and small, also came to the scene.
The opening game attracted the most attention on the first day of the Premier League, and Su Dong is a superstar with his own traffic, making him the front page headlines of major media newspapers. Everyone wants to dig out more news from him.
.
Su Dong also became the most popular player on the first day of the new Premier League season with his two goals.
But it’s only the first day.
By the next day, other Premier League games gradually ignited the flames of war.
Chelsea face bloomers West Bromwich Albion at their home stadium.
Carlo Ancelotti's team launched a vigorous offensive at Stamford Bridge and achieved a hearty victory. In the end, they defeated West Bromwich Albion 6-0 and won the Premier League for the first time this season.
The most eye-catching victory of the round.
More importantly, Drogba scored a hat trick in this game.
This hat trick allowed Drogba to surpass Su Dong in the scorer list and become the top scorer.
At Stamford Bridge, when Drogba scored a hat-trick, Abramovich and more than 40,000 fans stood up and gave him the warmest applause. This was the biggest praise for Drogba's performance.
affim.
When Drogba was interviewed by the media after the game, he was happy with his hat trick and thanked his teammates.
He mentioned Su Dong, thinking that Su Dong was the goal he had been chasing over the past few years.
"I am very familiar with him, we have a very good relationship, and we occasionally talk on the phone. I have targeted him since I played for Marseille. I hope to surpass him and beat him, but I have never been able to succeed.
"
Drogba expressed great regret for this, but he was extremely proud that he could surpass Su Dong in the scorer list.
"I know that this should only be temporary, and he will reverse it soon, because he is a natural killer and the most terrifying scorer in the world. I don't think I can keep this advantage forever, but I
I will still try my best for this.”
"Being able to lead Su Dong in the scorer list, even for just one day, is a very proud thing for me."
Chelsea head coach Carlo Ancelotti publicly praised Drogba at the post-match press conference, saying that he performed very well, not only because of his goals, but also because of his efforts for the whole team, especially
They are very active defensively.”
Ancelotti recognized Sudong's strength, but also recognized Drogba's value. He even said that if Drogba can continue his form and performance in the first round of the league and overtake Sudong on the scorer list, it may not be impossible.
.
Everyone can tell that although Ancelotti is partial to his favorite Drogba, he still recognizes Su Dong's strength.
After all, this is achieved by scoring one goal after another in the European League in the past few years.
At the press conference, the media also mentioned Brazilian Sanchez's 18-year-old forward Neymar, who Chelsea is very interested in.
Ancelotti did not deny it, but he said he knew nothing about the transfer progress. He only knew that Neymar had excellent technical ability and was one of the young players he was most interested in.
"It is not easy to attract Neymar to join. As far as I know, teams including Manchester United, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, Juventus, Inter Milan, and even Manchester City are all interested in Neymar.
."
"He is like Su Dong when he played for Sporting Lisbon, which caused competition throughout European football!"
What's even more interesting is that Ancelotti also mentioned that Manchester City performed very poorly in the warm-up matches of the new season, and Chelsea did the same in the summer warm-up matches, and even lost to Manchester United 3-1 in the Community Shield.
But it was these two teams that performed so badly in the warm-up matches that became the most eye-catching focus in the first round of the Premier League.
