Super Marshal

　　 For Alpine and Manchester City, the January game is more of an adjustment.

　　 There is no winter break in the Premier League. The players are under heavy competition and the tactical style of Alpine has high demands on physical energy. Therefore, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments and rotations in January.

　　 In the third round of the FA Cup in early January, Alpine went directly to the full bench and played with young players. He challenged Middlesbrough on the away game. The result of the game was one to zero, and Manchester City won away.

　　 A week later, in the 21st round of the Premier League, Manchester City’s main players broke the Blackburn team 5-0 at home after a full rest.

Allardys’s team lost this game by a terrible defeat. Not only did they score 31% of the ball, but they also only scored three-footed shots.

Kaka scored twice in this game. Benzema made a pass and Sanchez assisted twice. Cristiano Ronaldo did not score. Instead, Sturridge scored from the bench. ball.

　　 Three days later, Manchester City ushered in the League Cup semi-final against Aston Villa.

　　 Gao Han once again arranged a semi-main version of the bench to play, and the result was a one-to-zero win away, and the Brazilian forward, if partnered with the striker Sturridge, scored a goal, and his performance was impressive.

　　 Over the weekend, in the 22nd round of the Premier League, Manchester City challenged Everton away.

　　 Just ten minutes into the game, Sanchez took the lead in Manchester City to score the goal. Since then, they have been able to control the game smoothly, but they have never been able to break the Everton goal.

　　 Until the 78th minute of the second half, David Silva assisted Cristiano Ronaldo for another victory.

　　 In the end, Manchester City took away three points from the away game with 2-0.

　　In the middle of the week, the second round of the League Cup semi-final was ushered in.

　　 Sturridge performed very well in several consecutive games. Gao Han arranged for him to start this time and served as the team's center. As a result, Sturridge performed well and opened the scoring for the team in the 30th minute of the first half.

Before the end of the first half, the Aston Villa defender made a serious foul and was sent off by the referee. The game entered the rhythm of Manchester City. In the second half, he kicked his head and scored four goals. In the end, he defeated Aspen 5 to 1. Dunville advanced to the final with a total score of six to one.

　　 In another game, Manchester United also eliminated Blackburn smoothly, and played with Manchester City in the League Cup final.

After finishing the League Cup in the middle of the week, Alpine continued to play in the FA Cup with the same lineup on the weekend, and defeated Scanthorpe in an away game four to two, and successfully advanced to the next round. Sturridge, Jo and Petrov formed All of the Tridents have scored.

　　 Three days later, Gao Han re-rotated the team lineup and challenged the Stoke City team away.

This is the 23rd round of the Premier League. Manchester City just won seven goals at home just a month ago, but this time the Alpine did not arrange a full lineup. As a result, Stoke City had the advantage at home and took the eighth. Minutes, with a corner kick, Shawcross assisted his teammate to score.

　　 But then the game was again incorporated into the rhythm of Manchester City's game. Modric in the 32nd minute of the first half, assisted Cristiano Ronaldo to score and equalized the score.

In the second half, Manchester City continued to increase the offensive. Shawcross fouled Cristiano Ronaldo in the 56th minute and was sent off by the referee with a red card. After that, Alpine pressed heavily on the offensive. Under the blessing of the card, he scored two goals in a row, leading the score.

　　 In the end, Manchester City reversed the Stoke City team three to one.

　　 Over the weekend, in the 24th round of the Premier League, Manchester City ushered in Portsmouth, the bottom of the rankings, at home.

　　Although Alpine still took a substantial rotation in this game, it still broke Portsmouth cleanly by 5 to zero and won a hearty victory at home.

　　 Entering February, Manchester City ushered in the 25th round of the Premier League and challenged Hull City away.

　　 Just three minutes into the game, Manchester City declared a loss, but soon Benzema equalized the score for Chinatown.

　　 After changing sides in the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo and Modric scored again to help Manchester City reverse the Hull City team 3-1 and scored three points again.

　　 Three days later, in the twenty-fifth round of the Premier League, Manchester City sat on the City Stadium and ushered in Bolton.

After the coaching change, Bolton's performance has improved a lot. He successfully escaped from the relegation zone and ranked 15th in the Premier League. However, he still hates the alpine Manchester City because in December last year, he lost to Manchester City at home. Gary Megson, Bolton's former coach, will be dismissed.

　　 But Manchester City taught Bolton a lot from the beginning of the game, telling them that this is the City Stadium.

　　 Only three minutes into the game, Manchester City scored the first goal and made another move before the end of the first half.

　　 After changing sides in the second half, Manchester City's defense once again exposed problems, Bolton seized the opportunity to counterattack successfully, two to one.

　　 But Manchester City quickly adjusted, and scored three goals in a row, and finally beat Bolton 5 to 1 at home.

　　 Successive victories have made Manchester City morale up and down, but since the winter break, the team's adjustments and rotations have also fully exposed various problems.

　　 For example, in the summer transfer, Gao Han created a strong main lineup for Manchester City, and the run-in was in place, but there were obviously problems with the bench and bench players, especially many players could not meet the requirements of Gao Han.

Needless to say, David Dunn in the back line, the character of the midfielder Stephen Ireland is also very problematic, especially the failure to play the main force, making him a faint stab in the dressing room, Brazil midfielder Elano The situation is also the focus of Alpine.

　　The teenager Michael Johnson was cultivated vigorously by Gao Han, but from the performance of many games, he is still not qualified for the main force, and Gao Han had to let Mascherano return to the midfield many times.

　　 But in this way, the back line also exposed some problems.

On the contrary, it is the front line. The main lineup composed of Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and Sanchez is indeed very strong. Sturridge’s performance and progress this season are also obvious to all. Petrov’s role as a substitute is not a big problem. The Brazilian striker And England native winger Adam Johnson are enough to be reassuring.

　　 Don’t look at Manchester City’s winning streak, but there are actually many problems exposed. It’s just that due to the strong offensive power of the team, many problems have been concealed and many problems have not appeared, but it does not mean that they do not exist.

　　If these problems are not solved well, this season may not be a big problem, but in the next season, after the team fights on multiple fronts, especially in the Champions League, many problems will become very fatal.

　　 Therefore, Gao Han had to prepare early.

　　 Pablo Sabaletta has been in a depressed mood recently.

　　 Although the Argentine is always as diligent and hard-working as ever in training or competition, everyone can easily understand the depression in his heart from the expression on his face.

　　 At the age of twenty-five, he is at the golden age of his career and he is eager to participate in more competitions.

In the first few months of the season, he was the main player on the right center back of the team. Although he did not dare to be outstanding, his performance was at least remarkable. He was diligent and hardworking. But with Kaka's comeback, Masche Rano's position moved back, and Sabaletta was squeezed out of the main lineup and completely lost his position.

If it is from the perspective of a fan, Sabaletta has to admit that Kaka's three-four-three formation after Kaka's comeback has made Manchester City more aggressive, more hearty, and more connected between the three lines. Good, more reasonable, and the game is more fluid.

Even as a competitor, Mascherano’s performance in the right-back position makes Sabaletta somewhat ashamed, but if it is as a substitute for Mascherano, Sabaletta has some Not reconciled.

In the past two months, he has basically been sitting on the bench. While other teammates are joking on the bench, he is closely watching the situation on the field, observing the performance of Mascherano, and learning from it. Head coach Gao Han's tactical intentions.

　　 He is convinced that he can do what Mascherano can do.

　　 But the premise is that the team must give him the opportunity to play and perform.

After a whole day of training sessions, before disbanding, assistant coach Brian Kidd announced the final sixteen knockout round of the FA Cup tomorrow afternoon, and the squad against Southampton, Sabaletta once again. Selected.

This is not a surprise to him, because since this season, the League Cup and Cup matches have not been the main battlefield of head coach Gao Han. Even in the League Cup, in the semi-finals, Gao Han also arranged a semi-main and semi-substitute lineup to play, let alone now. It's against Southampton in the third tier.

　　 The Saints are a traditional strong team in England, but it is not as good as before.

　　 If there are no accidents, I should still start.

　　 Sabaletta thought to himself with regret that if he could, he would not want to play in the FA Cup, but the Premier League, and even the League Cup final against Manchester United, but looking at it now, hope is very slim.

　　 Just when Sabaletta was a little frustrated and disappointed, and was about to walk back to the locker room, Brian Kidd walked in front of him.

　　 "Hey, Pablo, the boss asked you to take a shower, change your clothes, and come to his office."

　　 Sabaletta raised her head unexpectedly and looked at the assistant coach, "What's the matter?"

　　 Brian Kidd smiled, "I'm not sure about the details~www.NovelMTL.com~ or he will tell you personally."

　　 smiled and patted Sabaletta on the shoulder, the Manchester City assistant coach turned and left, leaving Sabaletta alone standing there, messed up, what is going on?

　　 Is it to tell yourself that tomorrow afternoon's game will start?

　　 is wrong, logically speaking, it should be announced tomorrow morning. How could it be now?

　　 It's February, and the transfer market has long been closed. Sabaletta doesn't worry about where he is going, but still wonders why the head coach Gao Han is looking for him?

　　 With full of doubts, Sabaletta returned to the locker room, took a shower, changed into dry clothes, and bid farewell to his teammates, and went straight up the stairs to the second floor.

　　Walking in the corridor on the second floor, you can hear the sound of the coaching staff meeting from the coach's office from a distance.

　　 Sabaletta has long been accustomed to this, because after each training session, the coaching staff will have to meet again to summarize and discuss, especially considering that there will be an FA Cup tomorrow.

The opponent Southampton is indeed not strong. Even if Manchester City dispatched a full bench lineup and defeated the Saints, there is no suspense, but Gao Han and his team are still very careful and careful to prepare before the game, which makes Sabaletta also Have to feel admired.

　　 But this still can't calm the doubts in his heart.
