Chapter 832: Van Basten's Worries

(The third update, I will make up for it yesterday, don't worry)

Undoubtedly, the most lively transfer period is the Premier League, after all, today's Premier League has the style of the Serie A Small World Cup, with more and more strong teams and more and more fierce competition. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

From the rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester United, to the rivalry between Arsenal and Manchester United, to the rise of Chelsea, the Premier League ushered in the traditional top four, and now with the rise of Manchester City, Tottenham's madness, Newcastle United and other strong teams, the Premier League can be said to usher in a prosperous era.

In terms of the investment in the major leagues this summer, there is no doubt that it is the Premier League, Chelsea has invested 100 million euros, Manchester United has invested 80 million, Tottenham Hotspur has 60 million, and Manchester City has also invested 40 million, and the investment of these four teams alone is close to 300 million.

In addition to the crazy accidents of the Premier League's major giants, Paris Saint-Germain of Ligue 1 also shocked the world football world a little this summer.

In August, Paris Saint-Germain's investment has reached 140 million euros, which can be called the largest transfer in the summer, and because of the emergence of Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea's investment is only second.

The third place is a team from Russia, Zenit St. Petersburg, and the two transactions of Hulk and Witsel alone reached 90 million euros, which also shows how terrible the black shops in Portugal are.

Fourth place is Manchester United, fifth place is Li Feng's old club, Bayern Munich, who fell in the Champions League final again last season, and the Bundesliga hegemon brought Martinez from Athletic Bilbao for a record 40 million, and then bought Mandzukicz from Wolfsburg, which is obviously not good news for Gomez.

In Ibiza, Spain, after two weeks of devilish training and fitness, the Manchester City players are finally back to the form that the defending champions should have.

The following week, Manchester City played friendly matches against two Spanish teams, 3-0 and 5-1, and Manchester City showed their Champions League title.

In these two games, several new signings also performed very well, Saric broke through sharply, Son Heung-min scored a goal in a limited time, not to mention Van Persie, who showed his form with three goals in two games, and as for Rodwell, the performance was also remarkable.

Dzeko scored two of the remaining four goals, and the arrival of Van Persie still put a lot of pressure on Dzeko, so that Bosnia and Herzegovina Diamonds have been desperate since the friendly match.

Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure scored one each, while the new players performed well, the old players also showed the level they deserved, and Li Feng provided four assists.

Of course, the two friendlies don't really mean much, after all, Manchester City is a huge gap between the two teams, Manchester City are the Premier League champions, and their opponents are only regional teams.

But winning is always a joy and it's a good start, so with a happy mood, City returned to Manchester, and with it, the last player returned to the team.

However, God may have felt that Manchester City were too easy and needed to add some trouble to their preparations for the new season, so Richards suffered an injury during a tactical confrontation training.

Ankle ligament strain, Richards' injury, a complete farewell to all games this year, according to the team doctor's report, Richards needs at least four months of rest.

What is called a house leak coincided with overnight rain, what is called a cascading effect, Richards just went to the team doctor to report, Barry is also injured, you know, Barry last season was quite healthy, groin strain, plus age, Barry will have to rest for at least three months this time.

Subsequently, Manchester City ushered in a new round of friendly opponents, the same two, but compared with the previous ones, Manchester City's performance in these two games is a little too bad to bet on.

Although the opponent has strengthened, there is still a huge gap between the two from the perspective of strength, and the opponent in the first game is ****** from Italy.

Last season, ****** were relegated and finished 17th in the Serie A table, but this summer, they sold several key players such as Palacio.

However, in this case, Manchester City played extremely difficult, and even took the lead to break the deadlock or ******, in the 31st minute of the first half, the center forward Borriello on loan from Roma relied on a corner kick opportunity to blast away Manchester City's players.

The assist, also on loan, was from Fiorentina midfielder Oliveira, who found Borriello with a pinpoint corner.

Manchester City, on the other hand, equalised in the final moments of the second half thanks to Robin van Persie's powerful strike, and the assister was Silva, who had just returned to the team, and the Spaniard continued his good form in the national team.

Three days later, Manchester City face a fourth friendly against Bremen from the Bundesliga, this time a little stronger than ******.

Compared to the previous title contention, after successive sales of the core of the team and the departure of manager Schaaf, Bremen completely lost the strength of previous years, and only finished ninth last season.

But in the face of such Bremen, Manchester City lost 0:2 cleanly, just joined Bremen in the summer, Li Feng's former rival Elia became the best performance in the game, a pass and a shot made him the best player of the game.

With the two friendly matches, the attitude of the media has changed 180 degrees, criticizing Manchester City, the previous mercury-like attack is gone, the midfield organization is messy, and the forward position is even more confusing, often the ball is passed, but no one answers, on the contrary, the striker runs out of the vacant position, and no one passes.

This is naturally due to the personnel and tactical adjustments Van Basten has made, and after seeing the back-to-back injuries of Barry and Richards, Van Basten began to worry.

Worried about what to do if Li Feng was suddenly injured one day, so in the next two friendly matches, Van Basten tried to change his tactics and replace Li Feng with someone else.

But it is clear that the result was not ideal, in fact, this aspect should have been noticed last season, in the cup competition, Van Basten put Li Feng on the bench.

It's just that the cup is really not always Van Basten, and in terms of personnel, it is basically all substitute players, and the situation is not obvious.

But now, under Van Basten's conscious observation, this phenomenon will be magnified countless times, which is also the case in the previous two games.

The midfield is not organized, the forward movement is completely messed up, Van Persie has just joined, but Aguero, who has worked with Li Feng for a season, Silva and Dzeko have shown very obviously.

At first glance, I thought the three were running around. (To be continued.) )
