章節 79: 79: Against Manchester City!
December 30.
The penultimate day of 2015.
King Power Stadium had a distinguished guest.
Premier League upstart Manchester City was the guest at King Power Stadium.
In the 2011/2012 season, after coach Mancini from Italy led Manchester City to win the Premier League, this Manchester City has risen completely.
Subsequently, Pellegrini once again led Manchester City to the Premier League championship, making Manchester City completely enter the ranks of the giants.
However, due to the dismal record last season, Manchester City changed the head coach.
Also because of the change of coaches this season, Pellegrini was full of energy and wanted to prove himself.
This proof is in the Champions League.
At present, Manchester City had qualified for the group stage, and the situation is very good. In addition, Manchester City was still ranked fourth in the Premier League.
The League Cup and the FA Cup Manchester City have made great progress all the way.
This also made some fans who support Pellegrini question why the team should change the head coach?
Now that he is leaving the team next season, Pellegrini was determined to give his future successor Guardiola a tough challenge to overcome.
First, let's start by overturning Leicester City.
Why was Pellegrini so confident?
The reason was simple.
Because Ranieri had announced his starting roster.
Leicester City's 4-4-2 formation, which had been unchanged for years, has finally changed.
Ranieri changes the team's lineup to 4-3-3.
Goalkeeper Schmeichel Jr. and the four defenders did not change personnel.
The three midfielders were midfielder Kante, Drinkwater and Andy King, who was playing for the first time this season.
Andy King was a veteran of Leicester City. He followed the team from League One to the Premier League and was an absolute hero of the team.
However, the arrival of Rocky this season had made Andy King a substitute. Only in the League Cup did Andy King get a few appearances.
On the front line, Albrighton and Mahrez acted as left and right wingers respectively, and Vardy acted as a center.
And Rocky, who was watched by the fans, was sitting on the bench, ready to play at any time.
Although according to the medical report and repeated confirmation by the medical team, Rocky's muscle strain had recovered.
But to be on the safe side, Ranieri put him on the bench.
If the team goes well, then he won't have to play this game.
If the team needs Rocky, it's not too late to bring in him.
Compared to Leicester City's starting lineup, Manchester City's starting lineup was luxurious.
Still the most familiar 4-2-3-1 lineup.
Exactly the same as when Leicester City played against Liverpool.
However, in terms of players, Manchester City were several notches behind Liverpool.
The striker, Aguero from Argentina.
It was in the 2011/2012 season that Aguero received Balotelli's goal in the last extra time and scored a lore to help Manchester City win the first Premier League championship in team history.
In the days that followed, Aguero became a consistent goal machine for Manchester City.
Contributing more than 20 goals every season, Aguero was undoubtedly the top striker in the entire Manchester City and even the entire Premier League.
Behind Aguero was the former Liverpool genius, Sterling.
Then there was David Silva, and De Bruyne, who had created a midfield transfer record this year.
In Wolfsburg made a breakthrough, won the Bundesliga assists at the same time, De Bruyne successfully let Guardiola look at him with admiration.
It's just that Guardiola at the time had already decided that he would go to Manchester City as a coach next season.
So Guardiola directly asked Manchester City's team chairman Mubarak to buy De Bruyne and prepare for his next season.
In order to allow De Bruyne to return to the Premier League, Guardiola took the initiative to call De Bruyne and told De Bruyne about his goals and tactics for the next season.
This allowed De Bruyne to come to Manchester City willingly.
However, even so, De Bruyne also set a midfield transfer record this year.
With a worth of 75 million euros, De Bruyne suddenly became the object of everyone's concern.
But De Bruyne's performance was good, but it's not as good as Rocky who suddenly appeared this season.
Therefore, in De Bruyne's heart, he had always wanted to compete with Rocky.
Let's see who's passing is better.
But what De Bruyne didn't expect was that Rocky was injured in the last game.
And this game, he did not start in the starting list.
De Bruyne stood on the court, looked at Rocky in disappointment, and shook his head regretfully.
In addition to De Bruyne, other Manchester City players should not be underestimated.
Double midfielder, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure.
These two players were considered to be the top midfielders in the entire Premier League, and even in today's football.
The four defenders behind them were left-back Kolarov, the double center-backs were Manchester City captain Kompany, center-back Otamendi from Argentina and right-back Sagna.
Responsible for guarding the Manchester City goal.
It was the England national team's national goal, Joe Hart.
No matter how you look at it, Manchester City's lineup was far more than Leicester City's civilian lineup.
It's like, in a football game, you use a civilian team to challenge the most difficult giants team.
But the Leicester City players have no fear.
They are football players, football, anything is possible!
