Chapter 453 Do you want me to come? You are dreaming!
The next day, the 22nd round of the Premier League ended. What disappointed Manchester City fans was that both Arsenal and Chelsea won, and Manchester City failed to return to the top of the Premier League.
Chu Zheng showed up at the training base early in the morning. After changing his clothes, he took out his mobile phone and watched the news.
Seeing that the media and some football celebrities were criticizing Bravo throughout the article, and some media and fans even took off Bravo's hands during the game, Chu Zheng shook his head, feeling that it was a bit excessive.
In fact, Chu Zheng felt that Guardiola's remarks that caused an uproar might have been intentional.
This guy definitely has the intention of protecting Bravo.
But now it seems that the effect is not great.
It was inevitable that Bravo would be dragged out and beaten to death by the media and fans.
Now that Chu Zheng thinks about it, after Bravo fished the ball out of the goal for the second time yesterday, there was nothing that could stop the media and fans from complaining and criticizing him.
If they had been tied yesterday, perhaps Bravo's fate would have been even worse.
Chu Zheng, who was still hearing the curses that sent Bravo rolling in the audience yesterday, felt a lot in his heart.
Chu Zheng felt that Bravo was running out of options, either leaving or becoming the second goalkeeper, or even the third goalkeeper was not impossible.
Mutual trust between the defense is very important, but now some players in the team have begun to distrust Bravo.
Chu Zheng saw it clearly during yesterday's game.
Once, Bravo faced a Tottenham attack and shouted "keeper" to attack. However, Otamendi took the risk and blocked the ball with a kick to clear it. He was afraid that Bravo would dig him again.
pit.
In addition to Otamendi, Zabaleta and Kolarov also showed some distrust of Bravo during the game.
This is the most deadly.
Once the mutual trust between players no longer exists, then Guardiola cannot keep Bravo even if he wants to, and he must leave.
Even Chu Zheng himself is now scared of Bravo.
It was really uncomfortable to feel that he was working hard in front to plan the attack and score goals, but in the blink of an eye Bravo conceded the ball, and the feeling suddenly turned from joy to sorrow.
It felt like I was eating delicious braised pork, but suddenly a piece of hot meat fell into the bowl and was splashed all over me.
Chu Zheng did not blame Bravo entirely for the two goals conceded last night.
Because other players in the defense themselves have to bear certain responsibilities.
That kind of powerful shot from close range would have been a very difficult save even if Edwin van der Sar, the Lion King Kahn, and Petr Cech were in their prime.
But after returning home, Chu Zheng watched Bravo's two saves from various live broadcast angles, and his impression completely changed.
Bravo does have a problem.
The first ball was conceded. Judging from the camera, Bravo was at a loss before making the save. His eyes were following the ball.
But when the ball flew towards Ali, Bravo, who was standing one step ahead of the goal line, didn't know whether it was better to attack or stick to the goal and remain motionless.
He hesitated!
After a fatal hesitation, Bravo dived to the right. From the camera, it was obvious that he did not have time to straighten his hands. This was an obvious and low-level mistake.
As for Son Heung-min's goal, Bravo has slightly less responsibility.
Because at that time, Otamendi, Kolarov and others had been confused and confused by Tottenham players, and some even started to defend with their eyes.
Although Bravo didn't hesitate this time, he quickly pounced towards the lower right corner.
But it's still useless.
Because although Son Heung-min's push shot was not very fast, the angle was very tricky and it went towards the lower left corner of the goal.
There was a slight deviation in Bravo's position selection at that time, which directly amplified the congenital defects in his height and wingspan, causing the ball to eventually go in.
Some people may say that many shots on goal are indeed difficult to save.
Indeed it is.
But of the 31 goals Manchester City has conceded so far, half of them should not have been conceded by Bravo, a goalkeeper who once won the La Liga Golden Glove level.
Seven or eight minutes later, someone entered the locker room.
"Good morning, boss!" Little Fuden had a festive look on his face early in the morning. His eyes lit up when he saw Chu Zheng, and he went directly to sit next to Chu Zheng.
After Foden entered the Manchester City first team, although he has not been included in the match list, this little guy is very patient, usually trains actively, and has never complained.
And this little guy is quite good at getting things done, a typical social cow.
Therefore, he not only has a good relationship with Chu Zheng in the Manchester City team, but also has a good relationship with other people in the Manchester City team.
Especially with Sterling, a big boss in the English circle, his relationship was so good that Chu Zheng was a little worried that this little guy would be taken to smoke hookah by Sterling, who had a criminal record.
"So happy?" Chu Zheng took the opportunity to rub Foden's naturally curly hair, "It seems that you have encountered something worthy of happiness!"
"I'm going to be a father!" The smile on Foden's face became more and more intense, and he couldn't stop talking without surprising.
"What?!!" Chu Zheng was suddenly shocked.
According to domestic calculations, this little guy is not yet 17 years old.
After staying abroad for so many years, although it is true that some aspects here are relatively open, it is also relative.
What is open here can indeed be scary.
But conservative is another extreme.
It’s seriously polarized. Not many people become fathers at the age of 16 or 17.
Chu Zheng, who was very interested, was about to gossip, but Arteta suddenly rushed to the locker room and said that Guardiola was looking for him.
Five or six minutes later, Chu Zheng appeared in Guardiola's office.
"Head!" Knocking on Guardiola's office door, Chu Zheng walked in, "You're looking for me?"
"Sit!" Guardiola puffed on his cigar and waved with a smile on his face.
After Chu Zheng sat down, Guardiola smiled and said: "Chu, do you think our new tactics can be used?"
The reason why Guardiola asked Chu Zheng for his opinion was because Chu Zheng's tactical thinking was different from that of most players and he could always give him clear enough feedback.
The new tactics he has been brewing during this period have been improved through feedback from Chu Zheng, De Bruyne and others.
Hearing this inquiry, Chu Zheng hesitated slightly, shook his head and said: "Judging from John's performance during training, he is not very familiar with position changes."
After finishing his words, Chu Zheng suddenly laughed and said with great interest: "Boss, if I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have played as a defender for a long time."
Seeing Chu Zheng's interested expression, the cheerful Guardiola rolled his eyes and gave Chu Zheng a dreamy look for him to understand.
"Then I have no choice. You know John has never played in the defensive midfield position. He needs time!" Chu Zheng shrugged and spread his hands, smiling.
In fact, for Chu Zheng, although he likes the feeling of cooperating with his teammates in the frontcourt to attack the opponent's goal unscrupulously, he has no objection if he is allowed to sit in the backcourt.
The most important thing is to stabilize the team's defense. Chu Zheng is still willing to make a little sacrifice.
Even in the backcourt, Chu Zheng has the ability to help the team attack and even provide direct assists.
The previous style of playing from the defensive midfielder position, where he would move the ball forward wildly and plan the attack to suppress the opponent, was quite exciting and gave him a full sense of accomplishment.
Speaking of Guardiola's new tactics, Chu Zheng felt that Guardiola was really amazing.
If the whole team can really adapt to it, the defense will definitely be stabilized by then, and at least it won't be in the current state of leakage.
It's a pity that Stones has poor learning ability and is a scumbag.
Ever since Guardiola asked them to practice this new tactic, Chu Zheng, De Bruyne and David Silva have provided extracurricular tutoring and indoctrination to Stones.
But this guy's progress is limited and it will take some time to digest.
After listening to Chu Zheng's words, Guardiola nodded, and he suddenly realized that he was a little anxious.
In the final analysis, it was the nearly overturned game yesterday that affected him.
Guardiola is really afraid of suffering another disastrous defeat like Everton.
Chelsea has been extremely strong this season and has not given many chances to other teams in the title race.
Once Manchester City makes another mistake and the point difference is widened, it may be difficult to recover.
This is a very strong intuition for Guardiola.
Therefore, if you want to win the championship, you must bite Chelsea to death and wait for Conte and Chelsea to make mistakes.
