Dutch football has produced numerous talents since ancient times. It goes without saying that this does not include goalkeepers.

There is probably only one Dutch goalkeeper in history who can be ranked among the top ten Dutch goalkeepers in the world at the same time in football.

The impression given by Dutch goalkeepers is that as long as they leave the Eredivisie, not many can become a starter in the upper reaches of the five major leagues. Even Edwin van der Sar can only become a main force in Fulham in the Premier League after he is 30 years old.

Before that, he was doing very well, but his real fame had to wait until he moved to Manchester United at the age of 35.

Nowadays, Jasper Cillessen, the number one goalkeeper of the Dutch national team, can only serve as a bitter substitute behind Ter Stegen at Barcelona, ​​which explains the problem.

The 34-year-old Maarten Stekelenberg may be hoping that he can follow the path of Van der Sar as a late bloomer. After all, he was called the 'Van der Sar's successor' many years ago.

In 2010, Stekelenberg served as the main goalkeeper of the Dutch national team and won the World Cup runner-up with the team. This was the highlight of his career so far. The next summer, he left Ajax and started playing in the five major leagues.

adventure journey.

Over the past five years, Stekelenberg has struggled to find a main player whether he was in Roma, Fulham, Monaco or Southampton, until he was picked up by Koeman this summer and came to Everton.

Two months into the 2016-17 season, looking across Europe, Stekelenberg is the only Dutch goalkeeper who can play the main role for a team in the five major leagues.

Many years later, when Stekelenberg looks back on his career, he will definitely find that his most outstanding moment at Everton was the away game against Manchester City in the 8th round of the Premier League that year.

In the 43rd minute of the first half, David Silva slipped and fell in the Everton penalty area, winning a penalty kick for Manchester City. Aguero was not on the court, and Tintin De Bruyne took the penalty.

After the run-up, he pushed the ball with his right foot. Before the ball left his foot, Zhuoyang said in his heart: No more.

As long as Stekelenberg, who is nearly two meters tall, determines the right direction, he has the best chance of hitting the penalty kick in the upper corner. His height advantage is fully demonstrated here. Ding Ding is pursuing an upper right corner that is close to half height, and

The ball was not fast enough, and Stekelenberg slapped it down with both hands.

Ferguson asked Zhuoyang: "You never seem to miss a penalty kick, right?"

"Well, yes."

The old man pushed up his glasses, nodded and said, "If you can keep it until you retire, that would be great. Are you sure you can do it?"

Zhuo Yang said: "It's simple, just don't punish me in the future."

Ferguson: "..."

This made Krauchen on the other side laugh. The 75-year-old man laughed like he was eating fried beans.

It’s the German Eckhard Krauchen, the head coach of the Chinese U21 youth team at the 2005 World Youth Championship in the Netherlands. Ferguson and Krauchen have been old friends in the industry for many years, so the two old gods got together for a look.

The game is not strange, even if it appears in the stands of the City Stadium, there is nothing strange.

Today Zhuo Yang accompanied him to watch Manchester City play Everton, and three days later the two old buddies will go to Anfield to watch the double red match between Manchester United and Liverpool.

Krauchen can be regarded as one of the founders of the reform of German football youth training. He has a very keen sense of football trends and development directions. Ferguson highly praised him in this regard. The reason why Krauchen failed to become a famous coach like Ferguson is that

His personality is purely technical and tactical and he is not good at player and team management, that is, he is soft.

During the 2005 World Youth Championship, Dong Fangzhuo, the most famous player in the Chinese youth team, did not abide by tactical disciplines and was taken out of the starting lineup by Krauchen. The young and energetic Dong Fangzhuo clashed with Krauchen at that time, and the old man could not do anything to him.

Krauchen had no choice but to call Ferguson to complain. Dong Fangzhuo was a Manchester United player at the time. After being scolded by Ferguson from a distance, Dong Fangzhuo obediently admitted his mistake to Krauchen.

Eleven years have passed, Ferguson has retired, and Krauchen is now the general technical and tactical consultant of Hope Football Spring Bud. Those who dismissed him back then are in prison. In January this year, Dong Fangzhuo, who had not played football for nearly a year, was arrested.

The media confirmed that he had retired. Half a month later, Dong Fangzhuo, who had gained serious weight, spent his 31st birthday at home.

The battle between Manchester City and Everton ended 0:0 in the first half. After the halftime break, the battle resumed in the second half. Guardiola endured another five minutes. He opened his eyes and watched Iheanacho's deflected pass and overlapping movement. He couldn't bear it anymore.

.

In the 51st minute, Aguero came on to replace Iheanacho.

Akunwei is famous all over the world, and Koeman did not dare to be careless. He also replaced Spanish winger Deulofeu with Irish midfielder James McCarthy. Anyway, the wing was very weak in front of Manchester City today, so it is important to strengthen the thickness of the midfield in the second half.

.

The 22-year-old Gerard Deulofeu was born in Basala Masia. He was loaned to Everton in 2013 and officially transferred last year.

Deulofeu has been called the 'Kaiser' since he was 19 years old, and he has been quite amazing, but the meaning of his 'Kaiser' is closer to Balotelli's 'God of Ba'. And Isina

Like Joe, Deulofeu is also a player with high physical talent but no brain. The correct timing of passing, running and passing is a Goldbach's conjecture that can never be solved for him.

Before Aguero could make any achievements after coming up, Manchester City suddenly fell behind.

In the 64th minute, Wales center back Williams launched a counterattack with a long pass in his own penalty area. Democratic Republic of the Congo winger Bolasie fell to the ground and used his instep to pass the football in the midfield with Otamendi.

From the wing, Lukaku got the ball and sprinted forward.

During the entire half of Manchester City, only Stones followed Lukaku, and everyone else was trying their best to rush back.

Stones predicted that Lukaku was going to cut in, but the Belgian center rushed into the penalty area and suddenly shook Stones away. He went down to the 30° baseline angle and then volleyed through Bravo from a small angle.

Suddenly, Manchester City, which was attacking like a bee and a butterfly, fell behind 0:1.

"Zhuoyang, what do you think?" Ferguson asked.

"Five days ago, my Chinese team was in Uzbekistan just like Everton today. They were beaten and then stole a lead. In the end, it was 1:1."

Krauchen interjected: "Do you think Manchester City can come back?"

Before Zhuoyang could answer, Ferguson said first: "We played like this today. If we still lose, Guardiola will probably vomit blood."

Manchester City's ball possession rate in this game has exceeded 70%, which is extremely rare in Premier League games.

"Two old men, there should be no problem with Manchester City's style of play today, right?"

Ferguson said: "Guardiola has a lot of wonderful ideas in his mind, but no matter how he changes, his tactics are very challenging, especially on the offensive end."

"Manchester City should still make some moves in the winter window," Zhuo Yang said.

"No action is as useful as your quick recovery. Sir Zhuoyang, what do you think?"

"I shouldn't be humble, that's just the way it is."

"Is it soon?"

"Soon."

"Manchester City needs goals. Before you come back, who can provide Manchester City with a steady stream of goals?"

"It can only be Aguero."

As soon as Zhuo Yang finished speaking, De Bruyne picked up a pass from the middle. Aguero caught the ball in the penalty area and turned around. He kicked the football first, then hung on Jagielka's leg and fell down.
