Chapter 636: Modric
After winning Wigan without blood, Manchester City completely stopped the devil's schedule, and before the Champions League came, Manchester City's next few rounds of fixtures were relatively loose since the beginning of the season.
However, although the schedule is loose, but the opponents are not easy to deal with, in the 22nd round of the league, the tale of two cities will be staged again, Manchester City will welcome Tottenham at home, and Manchester United need to visit the Emirates Stadium.
At the beginning of the season, Manchester City beat Tottenham Hotspur 5-1 at White Hart Lane, so in this game, Tottenham is aiming for revenge, and Tottenham is even competing with Manchester United for second place in the league.
Manchester City surprised the whole of England and Europe this season, but in the Premier League, Tottenham's surprise is no worse than Manchester City, after 21 rounds of league games, Tottenham is only two points less than Manchester United, with 46 points in the third place in the standings, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool three giants under him.
Tottenham's double core can be said to attract the attention of the entire European giants, especially Modric, Tottenham's midfield has the style of a generation of masters, in the Premier League, if Li Feng is the first person in the midfield, then Modric is the second person.
The Guardian broke the news that Ferguson directly approached the head of the Glazer family and asked them to shell out 50 million to buy Modric.
However, this report was quickly denied by Ferguson: "Modric is a good player, but we have Salmi and Paul is back, I don't think we need Modric now. ”
Manchester United did not make any moves in the transfer market, Manchester City was similar, and Heerenveen would eventually reject Manchester City's offer, and in the end Lauren and Dost himself became the biggest beneficiaries, although they could not transfer to Manchester City, but Dost's weekly salary more than doubled, becoming a big 10,000 yuan.
However, on the other hand, it is progressing well, Hamburg has not set any obstacles to the transfer of Son Heungmin, compared to the Dutch team who want to make a profit, the Bundesliga team is generally more rational, and the final value of 500 euros is finalized.
However, Son Heung-min will not come to Manchester City in the winter, but will continue to play for Hamburg until the end of the season, although only as a substitute for the team, but Son Heung-min has performed well, scoring four goals in nine appearances.
As for Tevez, the Argentines seem to be waiting for AC Milan, which is completely a bloody drama, Tevez is bent on AC Milan, but AC Milan is reluctant to pay for it, and Paris Saint-Germain is waiting as a spare tire.
Before the game against Tottenham, Li Feng ushered in another two days of vacation, and at the same time, Lauren once again had nothing to do.
This cargo is very good at finding time, the schedule was too dense before, and he never appeared, but now that the schedule is relaxed, this cargo will immediately come over and take Li Feng away.
However, this time in Manchester, in addition to pulling Li Feng to shoot commercials, he also helped Sun Xingmin finalize the contract, yes, Sun Xingmin also threw himself into Lauren's arms.
After returning from filming, Li Feng finally got a response from his uncle, and after thinking about it for nearly a month, the uncle finally nodded and joined the small team established by Li Feng, and even became the leader of this team.
However, the uncle didn't join immediately, and after the season ended, in fact, this didn't affect at all, and there were too many things that Chen Qi needed to prepare.
Although Li Feng wants pure football, in China, there are some things that you don't want to do, so when there is no way, Li Feng made concessions and let the two domestic predators who are interested in football invest in.
For this reason, this goods have been unhappy for several days, but fortunately, these two bigwigs are just investing in advertising, advertising for their own brands, and football, they will not interfere too much to make Li Feng's mood slightly better.
In addition to the uncle, there are also two coaches introduced to him by Van Gaal, Li Feng is ready to use the three as the backbone, and let them decide the next personnel addition of the team.
The next day, Lauren went to the Manchester City club building to negotiate Son Heung-min's contract, while Li Feng was a little idle, and Sylvia left Manchester again, she had to go to France and then fly to the United States.
Li Feng, who is alone, turned on the otaku mode again and found Bad Stuber in Germany, some time ago, Bad Stuber and Muller have been taunting Li Feng.
There was no way, when the two of them took their girlfriends and wives out to enjoy a pleasant vacation, Li Feng was desperate on the court in the British Peninsula.
As good friends, the two naturally will not let go of this opportunity, which can be regarded as a small revenge of the two against Li Feng, who told this thing to abandon them and run to England.
After the holiday, the team regrouped and Richards returned from injury, but during a confrontation session, Boateng unexpectedly fell to the ground.
This is definitely not good news for Manchester City, with Vincent Kompany still out for two games due to a red card, Colo Toure in Africa, and Lescott and Savic left in the City defence after Boateng was injured.
Savic's current form has been disappointing, although his number of appearances is limited, but it is in this limited quality that Savic has put in his poor performance to the fullest, and if it weren't for Van Basten's unavailable appearance, the young centre-back is expected not to be in Manchester City's starting line-up this season.
Or Boateng's injury could make a difference for Savic, of course, it's up to Savic himself, and if he can't get his hands on it, then he is likely to be swept away by Manchester City.
On the afternoon of January 22, the Etihad Stadium was packed, and now the Etihad Stadium is definitely the hottest home stadium in the Premier League, and even this season, Manchester City have maintained an astonishing home victory.
With the support of fans from both sides, players from both sides began to take the stage.
Manchester City lineup: 433
Goalkeeper: Joe Hart
Defenders: Clichy, Lescott, Savic, Richards
Midfielders: Barry, Minar, Li Feng
Forwards: Silva, Dzeko, Sergio Aguero
Tottenham squad:
Goalkeeper: Friedel
Defenders: Héctor, Cabourg, Ledley King, Walker
Midfielders: Bale, Modric, Parker, Lennon
Striker: Van der Vaart
Forward: Defoe
Tottenham's lineup has not changed much from the first match, with Modric as the core in the middle, but Modric's partner has been replaced by Parker, who has better defensive ability.
Crouch has already moved away, Bam Adebayor is on loan from Manchester City, so this game will not be available, and between Pavlyuchenko and Defoe, veteran coach Redknapp opted for the faster Defoe.
The choice was entirely aimed at City's backline, with Lescott and Savage not having great pace, especially Savic, whose speed is arguably his biggest weakness. (To be continued.) )
