Manchester City had a chilly night in mid-September, but the Etihad Stadium was in full swing, and to be honest, Manchester City had a bit of a bad start to the season, with criticism from all sides and fans feeling a little anxious, but they were optimistic about the team, and manager Wen Sheng still had a solid place in the hearts of fans.

Guidetti was already in the tunnel amid the noise outside, and he felt a little nervous, so he planned to get out of the dressing room early and stand here to feel the atmosphere.

"Daniel, come on!" Going out earlier than him was Wen Sheng, and Guidetti faintly heard the cheers of fans near the entrance of the passage for Wen Sheng.

Guideti saw the boss turn around and smile and wave to the fans in the stands, his expression looking relaxed.

He couldn't help but think of the boss's impressive record, in the past history, the boss has never been out of the Champions League group stage once, led Manchester City for two years, and reached the final in both years, almost leading Manchester City to complete the Champions League two consecutive championships.

With the miracle of the boss circling in his head, Guideti's heartbeat couldn't help but slow down a lot.

"John, come on!" Someone tapped him on the shoulder from behind, and it was captain Milner who came out.

"Come on!" Guideti and Milner embraced.

"Relax, lad! Believe in yourself! Xu could see that Guidety was a little nervous, and Milner said this.

Guideti let out a long breath and nodded his head heavily.

Soon the players from both sides were on the pitch, surrounded by the shouts of the fans and stepping onto the soft turf of the Etihad, Guidety admonished himself to "don't think too much and concentrate on the game!" It's time for me to step up! ”

He deliberately looked at the position of his parents in the stands, as if he had a heart for himself, and his father gave him a thumbs up, and the corners of Guideti's mouth couldn't help but laugh.

When he first joined Manchester City, his parents used to accompany him, but then during his loan, his parents were not with him, he began to be independent, last season because of a bad muscle, he had to return to Sweden, a full year of recuperation, last season back to Manchester City, parents came to take care of him again.

He thought of his boss Wen Sheng again, the boss took care of him very much, it can be said that he took care of him, and from the conversation with his parents, he could also feel the care of the boss Wen Sheng from the side.

"Your chance will always come, be patient!" Guideti remembers this sentence very well.

"Today is the time to pay for the boss!" Guideti made up his mind.

......

The game started quickly, the opponents were weak, Manchester City quickly took the initiative after the start, Borisov was wise to shrink into his own half of the defence, for them to get a point in this game it would be a big win.

Manchester City basically mastered the possession, Guideti's most active position is in the opponent's penalty area, he is not too tall, he is actually strong, fast, and the impact is still quite sufficient, but in the defense of the positional battle, Guideti and the opponent's central defender have too many confrontations.

"You have to come out! John! Run, run, let them move! ”

"Man, be a little more daring!"

De Bruyne was unceremoniously critical of Guideti, who was not flexible enough to run, too rigid in position, difficult to get past the ball, and the opponent defended fiercely and was very close.

Before the game, Wensheng's tactical requirements were to hope that Guideti could stand in the penalty area first and try the opponent's defensive quality, so Guideti's running was not much, and De Bruyne's requirements for him were different from that of head coach Wensheng, which made Guideti a little difficult.

Shears crossed, Guidetti failed again in a physical confrontation, the opposition centre-back made a small move from behind, and he fell into the box, but it was impossible to get a penalty, and there was no one.

Guidetti knelt on the ground and complained, De Bruyne ran over and pulled him up with both hands, "Man, listen to me, you have to run, you didn't please in the penalty area!" There's no need to pester with them, we have to cooperate! ”

De Bruyne is also very tired, he is now a role of both a father and a mother, Guidetti on the front line is strong and has good impact, but as a pillar center, the dream is almost the same, the opponent is crazy about restricting him, the old problems of Cuadrado and Milner on both wings are still the same, Cuadrado is still a tendon sudden, Milner crosses too much, these are not in line with De Bruyne's ideas.

The boss does have some requirements in attack, but De Bruyne also knows that the boss Wensheng is still more open to attacking freedom this season, and De Bruyne believes that the current mode of crossing from both wings cannot achieve good results at all, so the next step should be to change the style of play.

The team has to make a fuss from the middle, the wingers are adducted, the wing-backs are in charge of the side passages, and the middle can try to break through the opponent's defense through short passes and penetration.

This is the reason why De Bruyne asked Guidetti to move, to increase the number of personnel in the middle and change the situation of no one in the middle.

As for Casemiro and Fernandinho behind him, De Bruyne just needs their pressure instead of rushing directly into the opponent's penalty area to fight, and the defense still has to be careful, the opponent itself is the idea of defensive counterattack.

Guidetti finally accepted De Bruyne's offer and began to run, he had gradually forgotten his nervousness.

Manchester City still pressed their opponents fiercely, and compared to the cross style of play just now, the style of play of wingers adducting and full-backs sprinting put a lot of pressure on Borisov.

Another time De Bruyne held the ball, the opponent three came together, De Bruyne and Milner made a typical collision with the wall, Walker plugged in at high speed, De Bruyne flicked lightly, Walker took the ball into the penalty area near the bottom line, Borisov's defender reacted unpleasantly, but Walker finally swept the ball to the wall.

There was a dense crowd in the box, Guidetti returned to the box after helping De Bruyne to cover on the outside, he was still under a lot of pressure, at first he was expecting Walker to form an inverted triangle pass, he deliberately paused in the middle of the small box, the opposing central defender could not react, did not stick to him, but Walker was not an inverted triangle cross.

He may have realised that the opponent's defense in the middle was still tight, all legs, and simply swept the ball in front of goal, and maybe the opposition defender could score with a touch.

Walker's idea was good and almost came true, when the Borisov defenders retreated, they really didn't block Walker's extremely fast pass towards the goal, but their goalkeeper Chenic subconsciously dialed the ball out.

Guideti was a little disappointed with Walker's cross, but soon he found an opportunity, the opposing goalkeeper subconsciously dialed the ball, which could only be regarded as a clearance, and the ball fell between him and Borisov central defender Filipanko, Filipanko tried to clear the ball but did not expect to shoot it empty, Guideti hit the ball a moment later than him.

The right foot with the shin guard collided with Filipanko's calf, and it hurt a little, but Guideti's eyes were always on the football.

The moment the ball hit the bull's-eye and hit the net, Guidetti felt like he was about to fly.
