The person who shook hands with Zhuo Yang today to change the team flag was England's midfielder Gareth Barry, who had played for four years at Manchester City. This guy is 36 years old this year.
In the two years when Yaya Toure was the most glorious at Manchester City and the biggest killer in all sides, his iron partner in the midfield was Barry. His down-to-earth defensive midfielder provided a solid foundation for Toure to let himself go.
Jagilka faded out of the main player of the defense during Koeman's adjustment, and veteran Barry became Everton's captain.
Two days ago in the locker room of Manchester City's training base, Guardiola officially announced that Zhuo Yang was the acting captain of the team. No one raised objections, including Zhengyin captain Kompani, who is still recovering from injuries.
This year marks Barry's fourth season in Everton, and today is Zhuo Yang's fifth month in joining Manchester City. This is a handshake between two veterans with neither team qualification.
Barry, the oldest in the game, gave his old club a warning reminder just four minutes after the opening.
‘Little Warcraft’ Lukaku made a low pass from the right, Belgian striker Kevin Milalas got the ball and hit the middle of the penalty area. Barry easily pushed the ball into the net in front of the empty goal.
Although the second lineman Simon Bennett raised the flag in time to signal that Milaras was already in an offside position when he received the pass from Lukaku and the goal was invalid, Manchester City's defense line could actually empty Barry.
In this way, it really shouldn't be.
The emergence of this dangerous situation made Guardiola and Zhuo Yang vaguely feel that Stones and Otamendi are a bit unreliable today. However, the game has just begun, so I can only continue to kick down first.
It is impolite to come but not go, Zhuo Yang also used a wonderful pass after a breakthrough to shake the tiger in the 9th minute.
The ball was Aguero pushed straight from the side, and Zhuo Yang also quickly went down the sideline, shook Ramiro Mori and passed with his left foot.
Sterling was in place in the middle of the penalty area, and Simmons Coleman, who was chasing him back, couldn't take the football even if he was chasing him.
Sterling took the ball with his right foot and flashed to the left, successfully knocking down Everton goalkeeper Robles, but Coleman, who had just slipped on the shovel, just slid over again like a sled, and Sterling just now made it slip again with his inertia.
The football was carried into his lap.
Sterling was so tripped that she almost threw her teeth off, and the football was confiscated by Robles' second reaction.
Sterling has a right foot, but although his ability to reverse the foot is not very strong, he is not without it. Moreover, even if he uses his right foot just now, he can go to the right side. He has to throw himself into the left, and it is obvious that his condition is also problematic.
Half an hour before the game, Manchester City took the absolute initiative. Zhuo Yang and all the offensive players all had extremely threatening shots, but they were either blocked by Robles or a slight difference.
Half an hour later, Manchester City's mistake began, starting from the back line.
Everton's quick counterattack was intercepted by Sabaretta, and after adjustment, the football was divided into the side to Krish. The 32-year-old experienced French full-back was stupid. He pushed forward with a long push and directly pushed Evert.
Tom Davis, 18-year-old midfielder.
In 1998, the day when the 'wind-chasing boy' Michael Irving scored Argentina's record-breaking goal in the 18th final of the World Cup in France, Davis was born in Liverpool. That day, Irving was 18 years old and 197 days old.
Three years after Irving retired, Davis, who was 18 years old and 199 days old, became famous in the 21st round of the 2016-17 season.
Davis took the ball and ran away. Toure, Stones and Krish, the three of them were hesitant to grab the ball or retreat? Davis made a decisive pass? The ball was accurately crossed from the three, and the meter
Laras and the others held the ball firmly behind him.
Speaking of 30-year-old Kevin Milaras? Many Chinese fans don’t have a deep impression on you.
Back in 2008, the men's football group stage of the Beijing Olympics? The host China National Olympics vs. the Belgian National Olympics? It was Tan Wangsong's "severe son and grandson's feet". Belgium defeated China 2-0, and the goalkeeper was Moussa Dembele and
Milaras.
In the subsequent quarter-finals, their goals also allowed Belgium to eliminate Italy 3:2.
.
Miraras knocked back in the middle of the downward triangle on the left side of Manchester City’s penalty area. Where did Lukaku appear? It was as empty as when Barry sounded the alarm bell just now. The difference is that Everton did not have offside this time.
Lukaku's ankle shot was not too tricky, but the ball was very fast. The football was less than 5 cm away from Bravo's fingertips, and Manchester City was 0:1 behind.
A defensive cluster worth over 100 million yuan? It's like a fucking piece of paper.
As a striker, Zhuo Yang cannot go back to defend near the penalty area to assist in defense every time? Everyone should perform their duties on the court. Being behind in the score, all he needs to do is to use goals on the offensive end to open the situation for Manchester City as soon as possible.
But once the atypical Dutch coach Ronald Koeman plays a defensive counterattack? He is even more Lehager than Mourinho. Only looking at Koeman in the 2016-17 season, no one can guess him no matter how imaginative he is.
He will actually coach Barcelona in the future.
Everton completely gave up the ball-controlled iron barrel formation? Zhuo Yang and Aguero hit the eyes and stares but remained still.
Ashley Williams, Mason Holgate, Leiden Bynes, Shemes Coleman...? Including Old Barry? The midfielder with a combined net worth of less than 20 million yuan was
Koeman was so embarrassed that Stones was able to train him, and he was enough to see the skills of Grandmaster Ke.
John Stones was sold to Manchester City by Everton for 47.5 million pounds. Who would you please go to?
The score of 0:1 remains in the midfield. Just looking at the first half, it is a completely replica of the 8th round. Manchester City's possession rate once again reached more than 70%, with no winnings in nine shots, while Everton's two shots
, once I don’t know what’s going on, once Lukaku 1:0.
Fortunately, in November last year, when the team turned around, Manchester City people always faced the situation of losing one goal first, so there was no panic from top to bottom.
But Guardiola looked at his fellow men with a sad face and looked at their fantasy guys in today's condition, which was a bit like a rat dragging the turtle and having nowhere to slap them. Especially the slutty calves in the middle and backcourts should be jealous and stinky socks, but they didn't know if they wanted to adjust.
Who should I change?
There was no way, Guardiola could only raise his voice in the locker room and use strange English in the southern European accent to the players. His condition was like Zhazhao standing on the podium and reciting "***" passionately.
Guardiola's management of the team is meticulous in every aspect, including what language must be used for internal conversations.
When he was in Barcelona, ​​he stipulated that everyone in the team must speak Spanish or Catholic City when entering the Gambo Sports City, and no one is exceptional. Otherwise, the minority will be fined and the worst will be suspended.
You imagine the embarrassment of chatting with Spanish words while Henry and Abidal were peeing together.
Bayern stipulates German, and it is the same when coming to Manchester City. Everyone must speak English, including himself and the coaching staff.
