330. Strength is not as good as people (ask for recommendation, ask for collection, ask for subscription)
"Marseille pushed too deep! They didn't put enough pressure on the City midfield! It's not a good thing to go on like this! BT Sports commentator Savage didn't quite understand Marseille's excessive retreat.
Everyone's perception of tactical response is different, did Tottenham's pressing tactics against Manchester City have any effect in the last game?! Yes, City couldn't control the ball too much.
Despite the big loss, Savic still feels Tottenham are doing the right thing and you can't afford not to put pressure on the City midfield.
But for Popp, this passive defensive stance is fine, and all Marseille need is one or two successful counter-attacking chances.
The formation is too loose, he's afraid.
In the commentary, Savic even used the word weakness to describe Marseille, but the weak Marseille did not concede a goal in the first half.
Manchester City slowed down the tempo in the first half, and the creativity of the players did not come to an end, the form did not look so good, Marseille did a good job in defence, and there were not too many chances for Manchester City.
The closest chance came in the 32nd minute, when Marseille's foul outside the box gave City a set-piece, and De Bruyne was a very high-quality receiver, but unfortunately he couldn't find the back of the net.
"Man City have too many games and I don't think they have enough personnel!" Savage is a bit of a surprise at City's poor form, and this season Wen Sheng does have a lot of cards in his hands, but it is basically concentrated in the midfield, he has a lot of rotation players, but the front court is not so good.
Nasri is not to count on this year, the dog is injured from time to time, and then Oxlade-Chamberlain can play, but the ability is not very sufficient, and the tacit understanding with the team is not enough, used to use, Wensheng can really use De Bruyne, Silva, these two are the main force in the national team, De Bruyne was one of the most attended players in the team last season, this season has been a bit injured, and it is predictable that the state may occasionally be poor.
So in the first half, Manchester City on the one hand for tactical reasons, on the other hand, for state reasons, did not bring too much threat to Marseille, of course, in the defensive side Manchester City almost did not make a mistake, Marseille did not get a single shot.
Wen Sheng is also a little sad, the team's performance in the first half is not very satisfactory to him, the team controlled the ball, but the rhythm lacked change, the team played like this in the second half, Marseille must be happy.
So when he was in midfield, he asked the players to pay attention to the combination of long and short passes, and sometimes they needed to speed up the game.
Marseille's response did not change in the second half, while Manchester City's side changed a little, and the change of rhythm was used, and the chances were naturally a little more, but unfortunately Aguero began to enter the wave stage again.
This time Wen Sheng was very decisive, replacing Aguero with Guideti in the more than 60 minutes.
Guedetti has spent a lot of energy on him this season, at least from the test of training results and physical data, Guedetti is gradually recovering, and Guideti showed a good state in the pre-game training, given that Guideti has both speed and height, Wensheng boldly took a risk.
Commentators called Wensheng's substitution incomprehensible, but can they have Wensheng to understand Guideti?! Apparently not.
After coming on, Guidetti was very active, very active and lively up front, and soon Manchester City broke the deadlock in the 72nd minute when it was Guideti who scored. Night Night Chinese
There was an element of luck in the goal, as De Bruyne's long-range shot deflected off the feet of Guideti, who cleverly made a leg block and sent the ball into the Mandanda-guarded goal.
Relying on this goal, Manchester City got a win in this game.
Popp's Marseille thought about pressing after Guidetti's goal, but their mentality was not resolute, and they were hurt by Manchester City's control at the back, and at the end of the game, Marseille completed only 5 shots on goal, all 5 shots on goal occurred in the second half, and the shots they hit the goal frame were zero.
Another defeat, losing all five European games, Popp didn't know what to say, insisted on his own style, took the initiative and the result was terrible, every team in the same group could beat them by more than two goals, let's go a little, voila, still can't escape the fate of losing.
Of course, from the perspective of the whole game, Marseille clearly improved, at least focusing on defense, although they gave Manchester City a lot of shots, but Manchester City only hit the frame of the goal of the shot four times, only to lose a goal is also thankful.
'It's always not easy to play against an opponent like Manchester City! They're strong, much stronger than us, and we're hoping to cause them a little bit of trouble here, but unfortunately that didn't happen! I'm sorry for the result! In his post-match press conference, Popp reluctantly admitted that Manchester City were stronger, not because we didn't work hard enough, but because the enemy was too strong.
Before the game, the media knew that Marseille was really the weakest chicken in the group after losing four games in the previous game, plus Manchester City's home stadium, losing was simply predictable, and only one loss was made, which is indeed very good.
So at the press conference, the focus of this group of reporters is not the question of whether you lose or not, but the question of whether you can get out of class.
"I think our situation is improving, we weren't in good form a while ago, but now we're getting better! I don't know my future, but I'm not quitting! "Popp made his attitude clear.
Many reporters in France believe that Popp is very likely to be out of class in this game, after all, the Manchester City manager Wen Sheng is a famous plague god, and he has recently taken down two opponents in succession.
But later on, Marseille's president, La Brune, made it clear in an interview, "Now is not the right time to discuss the position of Baup, we need to reverse the decline as soon as possible!" The team can't go on like this forever! ”。
It's a reservation, but the meaning is also obvious, and Pope won't be out of class for the time being.
It's a great pity for Marseille to not get a point, but for Manchester City, only one goal was scored against the opponent, which is a bit too much to say, thinking of the team just slashed a few times, Marseille?! I'm afraid the strength is a little worse than Tottenham!
The reporters asked Wen Sheng if he was satisfied with the final score, and Wen Sheng said angrily: "I am very satisfied!" ”
Journalists also said that Manchester City did not look as passionate as they did in the league, and Wen Sheng responded: "The most important thing is to win the game, the score is second!" ”
Blatantly shouting out such a theory, reporters will inevitably put a hat on Wen Sheng as a triumphant theory.
It's not just these reporters who can't get used to Manchester City's style of play, Savic said that Manchester City played too passionless in this game and the pace was too slow when he summarized the game in the live broadcast room.
