Ten Hag criticizes his training performance, Sancho rebuts claiming to be a scapegoat

In the Premier League dialogue between Manchester United and Arsenal, England's 80 million euro winger Sancho was not selected from the squad before the game. 캡주소 originally thought that he and McTominay might be absent due to injuries, but coach Ten Hag publicly announced at the Emirates Stadium that: Sancho was dropped because his training failed to meet standards. This revelation made the England international dissatisfied and publicly refuted it, and "infighting" occurred again in the club.

"Jadon (Sancho) is out because of his performance in training." Ten Hag explained, "So we didn't choose him. You have to reach a certain level every day at Manchester United. We have plenty of options up front, so He was not selected for this game."

This is not the first time that the 23-year-old Sancho has been considered to have training problems. During the European Cup on home soil two years ago, his training status also caused Southgate to not start him in the quarter-finals against Ukraine. Last season, Sancho missed three months due to physical and mental problems, and Ten Hag arranged for him to travel to the Netherlands for treatment and training.

However, Sancho did not accept the criticism of his coach and publicly refuted it on social media, claiming that he had become Manchester United's scapegoat. Sancho made it clear that his training situation was very good and that there were other unknown factors behind his not being selected.

Sancho wrote: "Please don't believe everything you read, I don't accept people saying things that are completely untrue and I performed very well in training this week. I'm sure there are other reasons for the problem but I won't Say more. I have been the scapegoat for a long time and it is not fair! I just want to play with a smile and contribute to the team. I respect all the decisions of the coaching staff and I get to play with great teammates, Thank you very much, I know every week is a challenge. No matter what, I will continue to fight for the Manchester United badge!"

This season, Sancho has appeared as a substitute in the first three rounds of the Premier League. His position has fallen behind the 19-year-old Alejandro Garnacho. Since joining from Dortmund for 80 million euros in 2021, his poor performance in 82 games has made fans lose their patience.

This head-on confrontation with Ten Hag has cast a shadow on his prospects at Manchester United. Interestingly, the well-known host Piers Morgan, who once instigated Cristiano Ronaldo to attack Manchester United in an interview, invited Sancho: "Hello Jaden, welcome to my show, I can let you end Ten Hag's Nightmare."

Sancho may have completely lost his future at Manchester United. The club is very supportive of Ten Hag. The superstar Ronaldo who opposed him was sent away. The two youth players Garnacho and Rashford were also punished for being late. Deprecated. Directly confronting the coach like Sancho will definitely not be recognized.

British media revealed that Manchester United stated that it would not make any comment on Sancho's speech and emphasized that "Ten Hag's comments speak for themselves" on this disagreement between the generals.

At present, the summer transfer window of major European leagues has been closed, but if Ten Hag wants to do this, Sancho can still be cleaned. Because the transfer windows of the Turkish and Saudi Arabian leagues are still active, Manchester United is still trying to clean up the Dutch midfielder Van der Beek, and he still has the opportunity to transfer to the Turkish Super League Galatasaray. Like Sancho, Van der Beek also directly missed the Arsenal squad.

Greenwood joins Getafe

United academy prodigy Mason Greenwood officially donned the Getafe blue jersey as he held up his number 12 jersey as he posed for photos next to the team crest and greeted fans. "Hello Getafe fans, I'm Mason. I'm very happy to be here and can't wait to start playing," he said.

Greenwood left Manchester United at the buzzer a few minutes before the summer transfer window closed and went on loan to Getafe in La Liga. Millions of fans still hope that he can return to Old Trafford in the future, but CAB토토 analyzes the possibility of this happening. Even if he can prove himself in the Iberian Peninsula, it will be difficult for him to put on the Manchester United jersey robe.

Earlier this summer, a proposal was made to sign Greenwood from Manchester United during a strategy meeting of transfer staff in the Saudi Arabian Professional League. Soon, the issue was rejected, and they decided that bringing in the talented 21-year-old forward would do more harm than good.

Although Greenwood is no longer charged by the Crown Prosecution Service, he is legally a free man. Greenwood has always denied all of these allegations. But his moral taint can never be washed away, and the Manchester United youth forward himself has not denied that he has made mistakes. In the photos, videos and audio of Greenwood's alleged domestic violence exposed on social media, a man believed to be Greenwood can be heard yelling to the victim, "Pick up your leg." The woman refused, but the man angrily shouted, " I don’t care what you kid wants.”

Seven months after the charges were dropped, Greenwood is still not playing professionally, illustrating the difficulty of his return to football. Now, although he can only join the relegation team Getafe, he can at least play in the Spanish top league, where he can play against La Liga duo Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Following a six-month internal investigation, United chief executive Richard Arnold initially felt Greenwood could be reinstated with the intention of returning him to the first team, with extensive plans in place. But as the "Sports Network" reported, Manchester United later saw the strong opposition from the outside world, changed its attitude, and decided to abandon Greenwood completely.

Arnold made it clear: Due to Manchester United's worldwide attention, it will be too challenging for Greenwood to rebuild his career. He also suggested that there are polarizing views on Greenwood's potential return, which would jeopardize the unity within the club.

Manchester United has not terminated Greenwood's contract. This contract has less than two years left and his weekly salary is 75,000 pounds. The club has publicly promised to help Greenwood restart his career and continue to support his personal life. What the club said is true. Manchester United is responsible for paying for the English teenager's monthly villa rent of 8,000 pounds in Getafe, as well as the round-the-clock Spanish translation service.

Greenwood lives in the "La Finca" high-end community where superstars such as Beckham, Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale have lived in the past. It is known as the "Spanish Beverly Hills" and is a wealthy community with huge properties. The mansions, luxury golf courses and shopping malls are under tight security and closely monitored by dozens of cameras. And more importantly, it is only a 20-minute drive from Getafe's training ground.

The "Sun" stated that Greenwood can also choose the "La Moraleja" community, which is where Varane and Modric live.

Manchester United only announced the sale of Greenwood on August 21, which was only about 10 days before the end of the summer window for most leagues. The transfer department was very busy at the same time, and Manchester United's director of football John Murtaugh and the club's director of negotiations Matt Hargreaves had a lot to do, including the signing of Evans, Altai Baindier, Reguilon and Amrabat, while for sale or lease Dean Henderson, Brandon Williams, Teden Mengie, Noam Emeran, Mark Jurado, Charlie McNeil, Logan Pye and Alvaro Fernandez.

Fortunately, Murtaugh has been one of the Manchester United executives who support giving Greenwood another chance. He is Greenwood's "uncle" and has known his father Andrew for many years. Therefore, Murtaugh is very concerned about Greenwood's next step and is personally responsible for his transfer.

Greenwood's road to Saudi Arabia for gold mining was blocked from the beginning. Saudi Arabia is developing a women's football league. They have applied to host the Women's Asian Cup, so they are very concerned about women's rights. This in itself makes Greenwood's possibility of joining very low. For the same reason, the Saudis did not attempt to sign acquitted ex-Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy, who has officially moved to Ligue 1 side Lorient.

In addition, Greenwood and Cristiano Ronaldo, the flagship figure of Saudi Arabia's sixth league in the world, did not have a good relationship when they played together at Manchester United, so they are even more unpopular. Former Liverpool captain Gerrard has publicly stated that rumors of a transfer between his Saudi club Dammam and Greenwood are fake news.

With the lessons learned from the blocked transfer to Saudi Arabia, Manchester United became more cautious and low-key when looking for Greenwood's next home in European football, keeping relevant information strictly confidential. Murtaugh fears that if rumors come to light before a deal is done, a potential move could find itself the focus of a media storm in the UK and social media, in the same way United did earlier this month.

According to the report of Athletic.com, in the last moments of the summer window, agents from all over the continent contacted many clubs, claiming that they could arrange the loan of Greenwood from Manchester United, but these clubs are not completely clear whether these agents are actually authorized by Manchester United.

The sporting director of a Spanish club has revealed that as many as 20 agents have contacted him, claiming to help him sign Greenwood. As for Manchester United officials, they refused to comment on which agents really represent their club. According to analysis, one of Manchester United's motivations for promoting Greenwood through an intermediary agency may be to help other clubs provide a "safe haven". Once they get into disputes, they can confidently say that they have contacted Manchester United.

After the charges were dropped at the beginning of the year, Greenwood's popular destination was considered to be Italy, including Atlanta, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus and Roma. However, Serie A has also focused on cooperating with women's rights protection organizations in recent years. Some Italian club employees said that if the team signs Greenwood, they will consider resigning or going on strike.

In the last few weeks of the summer window, agents contacted various clubs. Brentford of the Premier League directly refused to accept Greenwood, although their leading striker Toni was suspended; the Bundesliga also said no to Greenwood. Borussia Dortmund, Serie A Roma and AC Milan have also distanced themselves from him.

Another challenge Greenwood faces is that French and Spanish leagues have restrictions on the number of non-EU players that can be registered. After the UK leaves the EU in 2016, English players will be considered non-EU players. Ligue 1 teams can only have a maximum of four non-EU players, while La Liga can register five non-EU players, but each game can only have three players in the matchday squad.

Although Serie A teams have a registration cap of only two non-EU players, a ruling that came into force in July this year means that Swiss and British players are still considered EU players. This was also the first time Greenwood was considered possible to move to Italy. one of the reasons.

Manchester United and Greenwood waited until the last moment of the summer window, because there is not much time left at this time, and some clubs may become more impulsive and panic. The tight time brings challenges, but it also brings opportunities. With September 1, the deadline for most European leagues, talks increased around Greenwood, with simultaneous talks with various interested parties.

For example, Lazio, a Serie A team participating in the Champions League this season, is reported to have even exchanged legal documents with Manchester United and the Blue Eagles regarding Greenwood's transfer. However, the Italian transfer window closed at 19:00 local time, 4 hours earlier than the Premier League. The two sides ultimately failed to reach a final agreement in time. Italian media have different opinions on the reasons why the transfer fell through. The mainstream view is that coach Sarri is worried about Greenwood's controversy and his status, because since January 2022, Greenwood has not only not played a game, but has not even been able to train normally. Couldn't attend.

Spain's transfer deadline is the same as that of England, both at 23 o'clock in the middle of the night, which leaves room for negotiations for Getafe. The team had hoped to sell 26-year-old striker Enes Unal to Benfica this summer, get cash and buy. However, the Turkish striker's anterior cruciate ligament injury led to the failure of the transfer, and the transfer budget of this small club is even more limited.

United have agreed to take no loan fee, no commitment to buy out Greenwood and just €1m (£858,000) in wages. In the coming year, Manchester United will bear at least £50,000 of Greenwood's £75,000 weekly salary. This means that Getafe can get a striker who was once valued at 50 million pounds for basically no money, and they decided to take risks and bring in under pressure. Getafe didn't even ask to see United's internal investigation files, insisting that the law had cleared the player of all charges.

The British "Daily Mail" commented that the most unloved club in La Liga, they may think that negative attention is also a good thing. The team officially announced Greenwood's arrival at 22:58 last Friday night. The official statement received more than 30 million views. This is a protagonist treatment that the team has never enjoyed in the past. His English official website originally had only a few hundred fans, but after signing Greenwood, it has now increased to nearly 25,000.

Getafe, of course, were not immune to criticism, with Spain's main charity, the Anna Bella Foundation, lashing out at them for setting a horribly bad example. "Getafe executives should not have hired Greenwood, they should immediately reverse their decision. There is no reason for a public-facing organization like Getafe to take a neutral stance on violence against women, you have to take a moral responsibility. "

But this level of resistance is obviously not the same as the scale of his comeback at Manchester United. If Manchester United decides to reactivate Greenwood, the reaction from the outside world will be like a 17-level typhoon. In contrast, Getafe is only facing a breeze.

Getafe, on the outskirts of Madrid, is a safe place to live, with a low crime rate and a lower cost of living than the Spanish capital. It's quieter there compared to Madrid and their 16,500-capacity Alfonso Perez stadium is rarely filled, so that would give Greenwood a backdrop against which to fight in lesser attention A good stage to prove yourself again.

But Greenwood also faces challenges. He has to leave the greenhouse of the giants and get used to the life and style of play of mid-lower teams that he has never experienced in the past. Statistics show that Getafe averaged only 35% of the ball possession rate last season and fouled more than 20 times. Greenwood may need to learn to be more disciplined, something he has lacked in the past.

A spokesman for Getafe confirmed that the loan agreement also includes a break clause that can be triggered in the January winter transfer window if both parties are not satisfied with the progress of the transfer. This is standard practice on many loan deals and does not mean United plan to recall him mid-season. Even if Greenwood's condition returns to normal. Manchester United insisted on their previous position that the club does not believe that Greenwood can represent the club again, because that would once again put the club in the center of the British media and social media attention storm. Greenwood's No. 11 jersey has been assigned to new aid Hoylund, indicating that he has no place in the team.

But Greenwood will definitely return to Old Trafford after the end of his loan next summer. At that time, Manchester United has one year left on his contract and retains the option to extend it for another year. United will hope that Greenwood is in good form, which will ensure his resale value. Manchester United will pay Greenwood more than 10 million pounds in wages after his accident, and the club at least hopes to earn back this money.

Barcelona will give Messi a contract, but there is no guarantee of registration before August 31

Where Messi will play next season remains in the fog until now.

According to the latest news from the Spanish media, La Liga has just passed Barcelona's budget for the next two seasons, but it is limited to registering existing players, and still cannot offer Messi a contract. To the extent that the contract is issued, Barcelona still needs to sell some players, which will take time.

According to reports, Messi hopes to finalize his future before heading to Asia, but the current situation is becoming more and more complicated.

Because at the same time, the American major league team Miami International and the Saudi team Riyadh Crescent have both made huge offers to Messi.

According to previous reports, Inter Miami's offer includes part of the club's shares, and Messi will be able to become a shareholder. The Saudi side is more direct, offering a package of contracts with an annual salary of 1 billion euros including various commercial endorsements.

However, the most difficult problem is that Messi hopes to return to Barcelona most in his heart.

It is reported that Messi even considered agreeing to join Miami International or Riyadh Crescent, on the condition that he be allowed to "loan" back to Barcelona to play for one year, and then formally join after one year, but there is currently no further details on this plan.

A few days ago, Messi's father met with Barcelona Chairman Laporta and expressed that Messi can even play for Barcelona for free, but according to the current situation of Barcelona, ​​​​it is still not enough to register for Messi (La Liga has minimum wage regulations).

The Spanish media received news that Barcelona will try their best to make an offer in the next few hours, but there is no guarantee that they can complete the registration for Messi before August 31.

캡사이트 analysis, if Messi insists on returning to Barcelona, ​​he may have to face the situation of waiting until the end in 2021 again, and no one knows whether the final result will be a smooth reunion or forced to go to other clubs.

Saudi Arabia interested in signing De Gea

Saudi Arabia's cash has swept the European football world. From Ronaldo to Benzema, there will definitely be more and more superstars landing in the Saudi league.

Now this trend has spread to Manchester United again. According to British media 90min, sources told them that a team from Saudi Arabia is interested in De Gea, but the Spanish goalkeeper has no intention of playing in the Saudi League at this stage. . The contract renewal negotiations between Manchester United and De Gea have been very smooth from the beginning, and the two sides have never worried that they will not be able to negotiate.

Saudi Arabia interested in signing De Gea? If the news is true, it can only be said that the Saudis really do not refuse anyone. No matter what the position is, as long as he has played for a wealthy club and is famous, and his contract is about to expire, he may become their target.

Over the past period of time, Manchester United executives have been negotiating contract extensions with players, and key progress has been made one after another. Luke Shaw, Garner Joe, and Dalot have continued their contracts.

In an interview, Ten Hag expressed on many occasions that he hoped that De Gea would stay in the team, and that the players were willing to cut their salaries significantly, but there was no substantive news about De Gea's contract renewal. What is the problem? It is estimated that Ten Hag began to hesitate a bit.

The turning point may come after the FA Cup final. According to the British "Daily Mail", De Gea has reached an agreement on the terms of the new contract, but Manchester United has not yet made a move to sign the agreement. What happened at Wembley could change everything, at least with de Gea understanding that his starting spot would no longer be guaranteed.

In the FA Cup final, Manchester United easily conceded 2 goals. Gundogan scored 2 goals with 2 shots. Although the quality of the shots was very high, De Gea still encountered a lot of doubts after the game. Legendary Manchester United goalkeeper Schmeichel believed that De Gea should have saved the second goal, and he was surprised by this.

De Gea's current situation is quite embarrassing. He has played well, which cannot be erased. He is also the goalkeeper with the most clean sheets in the Premier League this season and won the Golden Glove.

But his mistakes caused the most conceded goals, which can be said to be polarized. When the state is good, he is super brave, but when the state is not good, he is worse than anyone else, a bit like Fred.

More importantly, his passing ability did not meet Ten Hag's requirements. In addition, the statistics of CAB PORTAL can also prove that De Gea's reaction ability has also declined in the past two years, especially in several key games this season.

Ten Hag has already spoken, there must be competition for the goalkeeper position. Reminiscent of Manchester United's recent frequent scandals with goalkeepers, such as Diogo Costa, it is not ruled out that Ten Hag may consider the possibility of introducing a new goalkeeper this summer.

The Post's report illustrates the problem well. Manchester United and De Gea have been negotiating for a contract extension for some time. In fact, the specific details must have been discussed almost.

De Gea has agreed to renew his contract with a salary cut, but Manchester United has begun to hesitate whether to sign this contract.

And Manchester United's hesitation is actually Ten Hag's idea, whether to renew the contract with De Gea, or to introduce a new goalkeeper that suits his own tactical play in one step this summer.

Is Jorginho Pinning reliable for Caicedo?

With the introduction of Caicedo blocked, Arsenal had to switch targets in the last two days before the winter window closed. In the end, Chelsea midfielder Jorginho joined Arsenal with a transfer fee of 12 million pounds. The completion speed of this transaction is comparable to the Gunners' previous introduction of Trosar from Brighton, and it also means that the Gunners' reinforcement work in this winter window has officially come to an end.

The 31-year-old Jorginho joined Chelsea from Naples in 2018, and his contract with Chelsea is now in the final six months. The Italian midfielder's name was first revealed by the English media on Monday afternoon, when speculation arose as to whether the Premier League's top-flight team would make a club-record offer after two bids for Caicedo were rejected by Brighton. However, well-informed English media revealed at this time that Arteta and Edu have now switched their targets and started to attack Jorginho, who is also in London.

This news was once considered to be a "suspicious tactic" used by the Gunners to lower prices, but as a result, at 10 o'clock on Tuesday morning, many media received confirmation from the two clubs: A transfer agreement was reached. Considering that the player's contract is less than half a year, the transfer fee of 12 million pounds is enough for Chelsea. On the other hand, Arsenal also cautiously offered an 18-month contract, plus the option to automatically renew the contract for one year. Both parties are happy.

Arsenal coach Arteta actually intends to introduce Jorginho as early as the summer window of 2020. He has always admired this Italian midfielder with excellent pass control. In the club's official announcement, the Spanish coach also spoke highly of Jorginho's ability: "Jorginho is a midfielder with deep football intelligence, and he also has excellent leadership skills and sufficient talent. Premier League and international experience."

And Jorginho himself admitted that he himself was a little "surprised" by the transfer, but he regarded joining Arsenal as a "challenge". In his first interview with the club, the Italian midfielder revealed that Arteta exerted "significant influence" in the transfer and finally convinced him to make his final decision: "I know he tried a few times before to sign Me, but it's not that I'm not interested, it's because of various reasons that I can't make it. I can't wait to play for this big club, everything is moving so fast these days, I will do my best here Work hard and help the team with your positive energy and experience!"

After winning Jorginho, Arsenal also began to further optimize the existing lineup on Tuesday afternoon. Lokonga, who was originally the only substitute in the midfield, was loaned to Crystal Palace by the team. The Belgian midfielder just replaced the injured Thomas in the FA Cup against Manchester City last Friday, and his performance was disappointing. And it was that game that made Arteta determined to upgrade the midfield alternatives to deal with the severe test of the two-line battle that the team will face in the second half of the schedule. Even if Thomas' injury is not serious in the end, Arsenal's midfield signings did not end up as insignificant as before.

As the main lineup for the first half of the season is gradually determined, 캡주소 believes that Jorginho is unlikely to get a stable main position for the rest of the season. He will play more when the team needs it, especially when the team needs his pass control to consolidate the lead. In addition, in the league that requires the intensity of double matches a week, and the upcoming knockout stage in March, Jorginho will start as the main rotation player.

Queiroz bids farewell to Iran

On the evening of January 31, Bahrain time, the famous Portuguese coach Queiroz posted on his personal social media, officially saying goodbye to the Iranian national team, Iranian players and Iranian fans, and distributed a photo of the Iranian national team being thrown into the air by the Iranian players after the victory of the Iranian national team. celebration photos. This means that it is impossible for Queiroz to continue coaching the Iranian team. Subsequently, the Iranian National News Agency reported that Queiroz himself had arrived in Doha late last night and would complete the signing with the Qatar Football Association.

Since the news that the Chinese Football Association will re-select coaches for the national team during the World Cup last year, the then head coach of the Iranian team Queiroz has been mentioned as one of the candidates. Queiroz has been in touch. However, as a world-renowned coach, Queiroz has led his team to the World Cup five times, and is quite prestigious in Asian football, especially leading the Iranian team to three consecutive World Cups in 2014, 2018 and 2022. Asia Connect". Therefore, it is not surprising that Queiroz is favored by other Asian teams.

In the World Cup in Qatar, the Iranian team failed to qualify for the group stage with 1 win and 2 losses. This also made Iran's domestic football circles have completely different opinions on whether to continue to use Queiroz. The faction headed by the Iranian Football Association President Tayi hopes to continue to stay, so that Queiroz can at least lead the team to finish the Asian Cup. However, 캡사이트 analyzed that because the Iranian team failed to lead the team to make a breakthrough in the World Cup, the opposition to retention began to gain the upper hand. The reason, of course, is that the results of leading the team are not ideal. It is precisely because of this that the Iranian Football Association has never given a clear statement. On the contrary, news about new candidates continues to appear in Iranian domestic media.

In the midst of this controversy, Qatar reported in mid-January this year that the Qatar Football Association had reached an agreement with Queiroz that the latter would coach the Qatar national team. However, on January 19, Qatar Football Association Chairman Tani made it clear in an interview with Qatar Kas TV Network that the Qatar Football Association has not signed a contract with Queiroz, and that Queiroz is only "an option". The Qatar Football Association has other candidates. . This made there no further news about Queiroz's whereabouts. Of course, throughout the process, it is understood that the Chinese Football Association has been working hard to win.

Until yesterday, Queiroz posted on his personal social media, saying, "When I am about to embark on a new journey, I still remember the many good memories I left in Iran. Thanks to the great players of the Iranian team, and thanks to the loyal coaching staff Thank you to the Iranian Football Association." Finally, Queiroz also expressed his gratitude to the Iranian fans, "Thank you for your support and encouragement over the years."

This also means that Queiroz is officially saying goodbye to Iranian football and Iranian fans. At the beginning, when the Iranian Football Association decided to change coaches in September last year and let Queiroz lead the team to play in the World Cup, the contract signed with Queiroz was until the end of the World Cup. After the World Cup, because the Iranian Football Association has been unable to give a clear statement, it is normal for Queiroz to choose a new foothold. After Queiroz’s post, the Iranian National News Agency announced that Queiroz was saying goodbye to Iran, and that in the evening of local time in Qatar, Queiroz had arrived in Qatar and would sign a contract with the Qatar Football Association until after the 2026 World Cup.

Now it seems that the reason why Tani, the chairman of the Qatar Football Association, publicly denied signing with Queiroz, saying that it was only an option, is probably just a "smoke bomb", and the Qatar Football Association obviously has its own plans and programs. Perhaps, during the Qatar World Cup, the Qatar Football Association had already contacted Queiroz. Moreover, since the AFC Congress will be held on February 1, Tani is also busy running for the FIFA board of directors. Qatar definitely hopes to make the matter public after the conference ends and Tani is elected. Moreover, after the end of the AFC General Assembly, the AFC will send a delegation to Doha to negotiate with Qatar on many matters concerning the 2023 Asian Cup. The preparations for the 2023 Asian Cup kicked off. In other words, everything is proceeding according to the plan of the Qatar Football Association.

Can Manchester City make it to the final?

The top four of the Champions League this season have been born, and the semi-final competition is about to begin. On April 26, the first leg of the Champions League semi-final between Manchester City and Real Madrid will officially start. Both Manchester City and Real Madrid have maintained their state very well. Manchester City has been insane in the last two Premier League games, beating Brighton 3-0 in a row and beating Watford 5-1, continuing to lead the Premier League standings; Real Madrid is also very strong in La Liga , Yiqi Juechen is about to complete the good show of winning 4 rounds ahead of schedule. Recently, La Liga has won 4 consecutive games and scored 78 points, which is 15 points more than the second-placed Barcelona.

It seems that the competition between the two teams is evenly matched, but the historical record has a one-sided trend, and Manchester City has an absolute psychological advantage. Historical record statistics, starting from the 4-1 defeat of Real Madrid in the International Champions Cup in July 2017, until the 2-1 defeat of Real Madrid in the Champions League in August 2020, Manchester City completed a 3-game winning streak against Real Madrid, the 13 Champions League champions, 3 consecutive 3 In the second matchup, Real Madrid won, and in the middle, they defeated Real Madrid 2-1 in February 2020.

It can be seen that Manchester City is very good at Real Madrid under the leadership of Guardiola. Manchester City's absolute confidence comes from its luxurious lineup and its very dominant passing control and kicking method. Manchester City can be said to have the world's first luxurious lineup. The team is worth about 1 billion euros. , In terms of dominance, Manchester City has perfectly controlled the game in both the Champions League and the Premier League, but lacks a super scorer, resulting in the team's large number of scoring opportunities, key games are still unstable, Real Madrid's dominance has declined significantly, but its tenacity and heritage are quite similar. Strong, the Champions League has achieved a good show of consecutive shocking reversals, eliminating Paris and Chelsea.

In this matchup, Manchester City is once again optimistic. After all, the lineup and playing style are better than Real Madrid. cab주소 predicted this game, believing that Manchester City will defeat Real Madrid 3-1, on the grounds that Real Madrid's performance is full of uncertainty, 1/4 The final was almost eliminated by Chelsea. Obviously, Manchester City will not waste opportunities as often as Chelsea and Paris, emphasizing that Manchester City is more stable and dominant than Real Madrid.

It can be seen that Manchester City is once again approaching the ultimate goal of the team. Although Guardiola has won the Premier League three times in just a few years since he coached Manchester City, their ultimate goal is to win the Champions League and get rid of the label of "just rich" and become The real top European giants. Last year they were infinitely close to winning the Champions League, reaching the Champions League final, only to lose to Chelsea. I hope Manchester City can learn from the lessons of last year and get to the top of the Champions League. In terms of players, Manchester City is full of firepower, 6 people scored in double figures, and all completed the miracle of 20+ shots, which made people see the overall strong side, while Real Madrid relied on Benzema to continue life, he became a super player. The superstar is the most popular of this year's Golden Globe Awards, with 50+ balls made by one person. Therefore, this game will be a super-giant contest between Manchester City stars and Real Madrid, which is worth looking forward to.

Is Lukaku really that lazy and bad?

Chelsea center Lukaku's performance and form have always attracted a lot of attention. Former Chelsea legend Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink said earlier that Lukaku's lazy attitude is unacceptable. But is the Belgian really that bad?

cab사이트 To be fair to Lukaku, his performance in the early days of joining is indeed worthy of his worth. He can show his strength in the game, can be used as a fulcrum to create opportunities for the teammates behind him; he can also play with his back. Before the Champions League game against Malmo, although he experienced a period of goal drought, his contribution on the field was also obvious. Jorginho scored the first penalty kick in that game, which was won by him. After his comeback, he also had a smashing performance against Villa, but his momentum was interrupted later because of the turmoil of the visit.

Yes, Lukaku's response to the interview is indeed extremely inappropriate, and it is very reasonable to displease fans and teammates. But his performance on the field was not as bad as he imagined. In the Club World Cup, Lukaku handed over important goals in the semi-finals and finals; the goal in the semi-finals was the winning goal, and in the final, he responded with a cross from Odoi and scored a goal. Although Kai Havertz's penalty goal is the goal that won the championship; Azpilicueta's interference with the opponent is also a great contribution, but the contribution of Lukaku, who scored two goals in the event, is not enough. ignore.

In the League Cup final against Liverpool, Lukaku also scored a lore goal in extra time. This goal that could have established the championship and changed Lukaku's fate was unreasonably overturned by VAR (cab사이트 to I can't understand why that was offside now); it can only be said that Lukaku's failure to change his predicament is also a bit unlucky.

In the past few games, Lukaku has won a lot of substitute time. Although he does not score many goals, it is impossible to say that he is lazy and runs less. Even when facing Arsenal, Lukaku also participated in the work of pressing and defending after playing; he had a lot of missed shots in the second round of the game against Real Madrid, but his performance was not so bad.

Perhaps because Lukaku has lost the support of the fans, his gestures will be criticized. But in fact, as a substitute at this stage, his performance is not too bad. In the game against West Ham, although he did not win, he still won a precious penalty with his excellent confrontation and positioning, but it was just wasted by Jorginho. With Kai Havertz's bravery and Armando Broja also likely to return, Lukaku may be sold this summer; although his remarks are inappropriate, in terms of overall performance, he will not be Nothing.

The African Cup is coming! These five players have a chance to prove themselves

The African Cup has begun. For many Premier League teams, the African Cup will be very difficult during this period, and many of the team's leading stars have been called up. But for their teammates, their absence just gave a chance to prove themselves, and it was also a chance to get the main position. The following cab site will introduce you to five such players.

Kepa (Chelsea)

Mendy will represent Senegal in the African Cup of Nations, so Chelsea's main goalkeeper must be Kepa. As Kepa, who has created the record for the highest transfer fee for a goalkeeper, he has been very aggrieved after being reduced to a substitute in the past two seasons. In the European Super Cup at the beginning of the season, Kepa performed well in the penalty shootout, proving that he still has the value of existence, and the next month will be Kepa's final redemption.

Origi (Liverpool)

During the African Cup, Liverpool will lose Salah, Mane's two major attackers, and the substitute Raider Origi will get more playing time. Origi has only made 3 substitute appearances in the league this season, but still scored 2 goals. His contract expires this summer, and there are many clubs who want to bring in Origi in January, and Liverpool will definitely not accept it at this moment of shortage.

Jack Grealis (Manchester City)

Although only Mahrez is the only player in Manchester City to participate in the African Cup, he is currently the team's top scorer, and his absence still has a great impact. Jack Grealis arrived at Manchester City this season with a price tag of £100 million, but his performance has not been satisfactory, and he is also facing enormous pressure. In Mahrez's absence, Jack Grealis needs to take on more responsibility.

Michael Orise (Crystal Palace)

Crystal Palace has a total of 4 players participating in the African Cup, of which Zaha and Jordan Ayew are the main wingers. Their absence is equivalent to Crystal Palace losing two arms. The 20-year-old teenager Orise has become the hope of coach Vieira. He was transferred from Reading last summer. England, France and Nigeria all want to recruit this genius into the national team.

Vlasic (West Ham United)

West Ham United's African Cup of Nations is Ben Rahma, his absence will give Croatian Vlasic more opportunities. Vlasic came to West Ham at a high price this season, but his performance was mediocre and he was still in the adaptation period. The African Cup will be the best time for Vlasic to integrate into the team.
