809 Difference Between Individual and Team
The facts prove the judgment of the people.
Glory scored another goal against Chelsea and he scored in every four league games, leading the Premier League scorers with six goals in four games.
However, as in the previous game against Sunderland, Manchester City were unable to win this game.
Even if they're at home.
Even the score was exactly the same as in the previous game - 1:3, Manchester City, playing at home, lost to Chelsea.
Glory's sixth league goal failed to save City.
While he leads the league scorers' charts, Manchester City are seventh.
Although the team has lost two in a row, the media still gave praise to the glorious table.
"Six goals, leading the scorer list, it can be seen that Rong's form is very good!"
"Rong was the most professional decision the amateur owner of Manchester City made this summer!"
"If it weren't for Rong, Manchester City's game would have been lackluster!"
This is how the English media say about Glory.
On a European scale, there is no shortage of touters of glory.
Kaka snorted softly when he saw the praise of the glory table in the Milan Sports newspaper during breakfast.
Caroline caught the sound keenly.
"What's wrong, dear?"
"Nothing...... It's not right that Manchester City lost the game, but everyone is singing praises for the proud goal. Kaka put down the newspaper.
"The seriously injured director has been away from the court for eight months, and it is indeed commendable to have such a performance after his comeback." Caroline said.
"Of course. But that's not the point. Kaka shook his head. What did Rong go to Manchester City for? He said he wanted to lead Manchester City to the title? He's just talking big, just on his own, without the support of an excellent team, why did he win the championship? ”
Speaking of this, he sighed: "Willing to fall!" ”
He still has this evaluation of glory.
After this game, he was even more convinced of this idea.
Obviously, Manchester City's quality cannot improve in a short period of time, it is difficult to expect them to win the title, and it is very difficult to qualify for the Champions League...... If he continues to stay at Manchester City, he will never know if he will have a chance to get revenge in the Champions League in his life......
As soon as he thought of this, Kaka was very unwilling - you defeated me in front of so many people, and just turned around and left, not even giving me a chance to take revenge? How can there be such a thing?! Bastard!

Kaka's assessment of Manchester City seems to be correct......
In the fifth round of the league, Manchester City hosts underdogs Portsmouth.
It's time to win, right?
City did lead the game at one point.
Although Glory did not score, his role up front was evident and he provided an assist to help Manchester City lead Portsmouth 2-1.
As a result, in the 85th minute, Portsmouth took advantage of a clearance error in the Manchester City backline to score the equaliser.
At home, Manchester City suffered a two-game winless runaway.
The post-match television broadcast gave a close-up of the glory.
Rong Guang frowned in the camera, and the commentator Mortensen said: "It's clear that Rong is not satisfied with the team's appearance. Conceding a goal in the final minute of the game...... It's so undeserved! The Manchester City players lacked some concentration in the final moments...... Without a win in two consecutive league games, Manchester City seem to have quickly fallen into a slump and confusion after a high start to the league game......"
Alan Hansen snorted from the sidelines: "It's understandable to lose at home to Chelsea, after all, they are stronger. But even Portsmouth couldn't win at home...... Suffice it to say. ”

Three days later, in the League Cup, Manchester City drew 1:1 with Brighton and Hove Albion on the English First Team, and then the two sides fought a penalty shootout, but Manchester City lost 3:5 to Brighton in the penalty shootout, and was eliminated from the League Cup in the first leg of the season!
This result was even more sensational than Manchester City's home defeat to Chelsea and a draw held to a draw by Portsmouth......
Although the League Cup is known as a "hotbed of underdogs", it is too cold, right?
After the game, some media made a comparison, Glory alone is worth enough to buy five Brighton, but it is such a team that stubbornly eliminated Manchester City at home!
“…… It's like a heavily built Rolls-Royce being smashed by a Korean car that is about to be scrapped......" The Manchester Evening News said of Manchester City's Carabao Cup exit.
The local media at Brighton & Hove Albion, where Brighton FC is based, played up the victory, interviewing the players, the coaches and the fans, describing how happy the Brighton fans were.
There are even local media outlets that make this day their celebration day, and they have celebrated it every year since then......
Manchester City have never been a strong team in English football, and they have been suppressed by Manchester United in Manchester.
But for Brighton in England's third tier, they are still behemoths, especially after they have been so rich this summer.
Inevitably, one might think something else – hatred of the rich isn't just unique to China.
The fact that a small team like Brighton can beat the big-money Manchester City will not only delight the locals at Brighton & Hove, but also the whole of England.
In England, out of respect for and pursuit of tradition, there is a great deal of hostility towards the nouveau riche of foreign capital. Except for the City fans themselves, everyone else is happy to see that City don't lose.
So when Manchester City's recent situation is not good, there will suddenly be a feeling of "the wall is down and everyone is pushing". It's as if the whole world is waiting to see Manchester City's jokes......
"Money can't rule football! Nor can it decide the outcome of a football match! ”
"The poor Brighton lads have taught Manchester City's oil plutocrats a good lesson! Even if they don't have superstars, they don't have a salary budget that scares people to death...... You can also take down the Big Mac on the court! ”
“…… Football is not a Monopoly game, the richer you are, the better your results. Football has football rules, and if you don't follow the rules, football will punish you. Middle Eastern consortia think they can do whatever they want in the football world if they have the money, that's impossible......"
"It turns out that the Abu Dhabi consortium doesn't know football at all, and Fasim is a businessman but doesn't know how to experience and manage a football club...... Just spending money to pile up stars won't lead to any good results...... So far, the normal of the table is a glory, and neither Berbatov nor Robinho has been satisfied......"
"I don't think the Abu Dhabi consortium will be patient, and if Mark Hughes can't meet their expectations, then be ready to pack up and leave...... But changing managers too often is not a good thing for a team. Because every new manager will have his own ideas, and they will bring in some new players and then sell the players who are already in the team...... This is a situation that no team can avoid...... Manchester City has always been in a state of instability, how can it be a good result? In the long run, it may lead to the withdrawal of the Abu Dhabi consortium...... When the time comes, there will be nothing left for Manchester City but a mess......"
"After five rounds of league play, Manchester City won two, lost two and drew one, and everyone can see what Manchester City can win by. But Rong can't guarantee that he will help the team win every game by playing on his own...... When Manchester City went toe-to-toe with their opponents, this team had no ambition or quality to show their ......"
"Manchester City bought a lot of players this summer, but until now the only one who has really made a difference is Rong. Mark Hughes still hasn't put these players together as a team. After five rounds of league play, combined with the previous warm-up matches, it can be seen that there are many similarities between the tactics of Mark Hughes and Magath during their time at Bayern Munich, the most important of which is the same high reliance on Rong...... Of course, Rong himself is also more competitive, and his appearance is excellent, and he does not disappoint those who trust him. But a team always relies on one player, and it is destined to not go far. This has been proven at Bayern Munich...... There is nothing new in Mark Hughes's tactics, and if Bayern Munich continues, I am afraid that the situation will not be optimistic...... After all, Manchester City is not Bayern Munich, and the Premier League is not the Bundesliga......"
"From the start, people didn't think much of Mark Hughes, and his experience in a small team is hard to put in a team as ambitious as Manchester City...... Manchester City fans were surprised that the club had chosen Mark Hughes...... Now it seems that the biggest weakness of this team right now is not the players, but the head coach......"
'Mark Hughes is not the type of manager who can control the dressing room, and in the extremely complex dressing room of Manchester City, he is even less powerless. I thought Mark Hughes might be able to finish the season. But now it seems that maybe he won't be able to last even a season......"
It was the first League Cup of Young's career, but he was knocked out of the competition before he could make a big impact in the competition. I think Wing must have felt the brutal competition in English football - unlike the Bundesliga, where Bayern Munich has too many teams to threaten the top...... He has to adjust his perception of English football......"
The bold words that Rong said when he joined are still in his ears, and now I wonder if he has begun to regret his original decision. Rong's table xiàn is excellent, and there is nothing wrong with that. But the better he looked, the more Mark Hughes's incompetence grew...... The incompetence of the team...... He alone can't lead this team to achieve the goals he said, this is the law of the football world, no matter how strong he is, he can't go against the law of football......"
