Chapter 244: All-out confrontation! The most valuable triple crown in history! Leave the pressure to Manchester City! [Subscribe]

clap clap clap!
Yang Cheng walked quickly into the home team’s locker room at Wembley Stadium and clapped his hands vigorously.

In the locker room, the originally noisy scene among the players suddenly became quiet.

Everyone focused their attention on the head coach.

At this moment, Yang Cheng was smiling and seemed to be in a very good mood.

We won 1-0 against Manchester United at home. Even though it was a small victory, it was not easy.

After all, this strong dialogue was arranged between the two rounds of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Everyone knows that the head coach must have something to say at this moment.

“Guys, sit down, I have good news!”

Yang Cheng stretched out his hands and motioned for the players to sit down.

But after he finished saying this, who could still sit still?
“Just before our match, at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, Manchester City drew 2-2 with Chelsea!”

As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, the Bayswater Chinese players in the locker room became excited again.

I saw Walcott, Gareth Bale and others, all of them jumped up with excitement.

“awesome!”

“Manchester City lost points again!”

“That’s really good!”

Yang Cheng waited until all the players had celebrated before he spoke again.

“According to the current standings, we have 31 wins, 27 draws and 3 loss in 1 league games, with 84 points!”

“Manchester City has 80 points, 4 points behind us!”

As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, there was another cheer in the locker room.

Perhaps, in the eyes of many people, this 4-point lead seems nothing.

But the league has already reached the 31st round. At this time, being able to widen the points gap to 4 points is already a very difficult task.

Both sides are trying their best to win the championship and are in their best condition, and neither will lose points easily.

For example, when Bayswater Chinese lost to Norwich, they really tried their best in that game.

But if you lose, you lose, there’s nothing you can do about it.

Who can always win?
Therefore, with everyone fighting so hard at this point, it is really not easy to lose points.

With 7 games left, we have a 4-point lead. We can’t say victory is a sure thing, but at least we have the initiative in our hands.

More importantly, the Chinese in Bayswater have improved their tolerance for mistakes.

Every subsequent game will be a tough battle.

Yang Cheng’s team has to take into account the Champions League, the Premier League and the FA Cup at the same time. It is impossible to take care of everything, and there will always be problems with rotation.

This 4-point lead is particularly important.

At the very least, it will make everyone feel confident!
“What I want to say is, guys, our fight is not over yet!”

When Yang Cheng shouted this, everyone in the locker room suddenly became quiet.

“There are still seven rounds of the league. We are currently competing in the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup. We still have many important and difficult games to play and we will face many strong opponents.”

“But whether it’s today’s game or all the games in the past, we have been practicing a sentence.”

“One sentence, something I have told you many times.”

Yang Cheng stretched out his right index finger vigorously, “I emphasize again now, we are the strongest!”

“We are not only the strongest in the Premier League, not only the strongest in Europe, we are the strongest team in the world, with the strongest lineup!”

“As long as we stay focused enough and work hard in every game, we can win all the championships and we will become invincible!”

The players were obviously moved by Yang Cheng’s words.

At this moment, when they heard the good news and the head coach’s words, each of them felt a strong sense of self-confidence and a strong sense of responsibility.

They are the strongest!

So, they are going to compete for all the championships!

Only in this way can they proudly tell everyone that they are the strongest team in the world!

“I calculated that we still have 13 games left in the season!”

The players were visibly stunned.

Didn’t we just say that we have reached the 31st round? How come there are still 13 games left…

But soon, the players reacted.

足总杯半决赛1场、决赛1场；欧冠8强淘汰赛1场、半决赛2场、决赛1场。

Plus the last 7 Premier League games.

If you add them all up, isn’t that exactly 13 games?

“Now, I have a request for you.”

Every player suddenly became serious.

“For the last 13 games, I ask you to play every game as if it were the Champions League final and give your all in every game!”

“No one knows where we will be after the end of this season, but I hope you can give your all and play well in every game!”

“And I believe that as long as you can do what I ask of you, we will definitely be able to achieve a result that will make you, all the fans, and the whole world cheer for you!”

……

No one knows what Yang Cheng said in the locker room.

The outside media is more hyping up this Premier League version of the national derby.

But the result of this game obviously surprised everyone.

Judging from the course of the game, Manchester United only had 3 shots in the entire match, and 0 shots on target.

Yes, 2 shots in the first half and only 1 shot in the second half.

Moreover, all of them missed the goal.

In the post-match commentary of The Sun, a sentence mocking Manchester United was, “Courtois slept in front of the goal for 90 minutes, and when he woke up, he got his 23rd clean sheet of the season.”

“This puts Courtois just one step away from Cech’s record of 24 clean sheets.”

In this world-renowned battle, Manchester United suffered an all-round defeat in terms of ball possession, pass success rate, number of passes, etc.

The Red Devils only have a slight advantage in defensive data.

Because they were defending almost the entire game.

This is outrageous!

The Guardian believes that such a Manchester United is a disgrace!

“No reversal, no red devil!”

“This was once the Red Devils spirit that Ferguson was proud of.”

“But at Wembley we saw a Manchester United team that just defended, defended, defended.”

“Perhaps Manchester United was really scared by the Bayswater Chinese. Otherwise, how can we explain Manchester United’s tactical play in this game?”

The Guardian believes that Ferguson is old.

“He has grown so old that he has completely lost the courage and determination to make progress!”

But in the press conference after the game, Ferguson said in an interview with media reporters, “I am the head coach of the team. I am responsible for my players. We have chosen a way of playing that has the best chance of defeating our opponents.”

Some media at the scene blamed Ferguson, “Didn’t we still lose the game in the end?”

“We lost the game, lost people, and almost lost the chance to attack Bayswater Chinese. We handed over the first four consecutive championships in the more than 100-year history of the English top league to Bayswater Chinese.”

“Manchester United’s proud tradition has been completely destroyed in the face of the unprecedented four consecutive championships!”

Ferguson was scolded so much that he left on the spot.

In its post-match commentary, The Times said that the media reporters’ on-the-spot criticism was indeed a bit too harsh.

Looking at the current European football scene, when facing the Chinese in Bayswater, perhaps except for Barcelona, ​​no team dares to confront the Chinese in Bayswater head-on.

“Ferguson’s Manchester United had just decided to reorganize and was still in the process of being a work-in-progress, especially in the attacking front line.”

“But Yang Cheng’s Bayswater Chinese is already a very mature team. The players have cooperated with each other for many years and have a very good understanding of each other.”

“Under the circumstances, asking Manchester United to launch a counterattack against the Chinese in Bayswater is obviously asking too much.”

The Times believes that the reason why many media outlets treated Ferguson harshly is that they are essentially unable to accept the rise of the Chinese in Bayswater.

“In their eyes, Bayswater Chinese is still the low-level league team on the verge of bankruptcy. But the fact is that Yang Cheng’s team is already one of the strongest teams in European football!”

“In fact, there may not be any other!”

But in the end, The Times also believed that Manchester United’s performance in this game was indeed too bad.

Especially on offense, there was almost no threat.

Rooney was completely frozen and couldn’t play the role of center at all.

There were only 3 shots in the whole game, and 0 shots on target. Such a report card is really too ugly.

The British media have given high praise to Yang Cheng’s Bayswater Chinese.

Especially so far this season, the performance of the Bayswater Chinese has been obvious to all.

This season, the biggest improvement of Yang Cheng’s team is its dominance in the game.

Not to mention, so far this season, only 31 goals have been conceded in 8 league games.

What an astonishing number.

If it was just good defense, it would be acceptable.

But now, the Chinese in Bayswater have unrivaled offensive firepower.

This is too outrageous!

With increasingly strong performances over the past few years, the Bayswater Chinese have continued to attract the attention of fans around the world.

Nowadays, everyone has higher expectations of the Chinese in Bayswater.

But the challenges are also greater.

For example, this season.

The Times published a special report and analysis.

So far this season, Bayswater Chinese are recognized as the only team in the top five European leagues with a chance to win the treble.

But if Bayswater Chinese want to win the treble, the next challenge is still very daunting.

Not to mention fighting on three fronts, they will face Arsenal and Manchester City in the league, and the league is also interspersed with the Champions League quarter-finals and semi-finals, and the FA Cup will face Liverpool in the semi-finals.

These are all powerful dialogues.

“In these strong matches, if Yang Cheng and his team are even slightly slack or make mistakes, it could lead to the collapse of the entire front and cause the Triple Crown to fall!”

“Even more extreme, if the Chinese in Bayswater are satisfied with their achievements, they may end up with nothing in April!”

The Times said professional competition is just that cruel.

“It doesn’t take into account how well you’ve performed and how much you’ve given over the past few months.”

“If they want to win the championship, Bayswater Chinese need to continue to accept cruel challenges!”

The Times believes that given the current situation of the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup, if Yang Cheng’s team can really win the treble again, it will be the most valuable treble in history.

Better than the Manchester United in 99 and the Bayswater Chinese in 09.

……

On the evening of May 4, Wembley Stadium, London.

In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Bayswater Chinese will host Bayern Munich at home.

After losing 0-2 to Bayswater Chinese at home in the first leg, everyone was very curious about what tactics Heynckes’ team would adopt on the road?
And in this game, when Heynckes announced the starting lineup, the answer was already obvious.

Goalkeeper: Neuer;

Defense: Alaba, Badstuber, Van Buyten and Lahm;
Midfield: Schweinsteiger and Gustavo formed a double defensive midfielder, with Ribery, Thomas Muller and Altintop in front;

Forward: Gomez.

From the three defensive midfielders in the first leg at home to the 4231 double defensive midfielders in the second leg away, Heynckes is obviously ready to go all out, because they must score at least two goals away from home to have a chance to turn the situation around.

In the locker room before the game, when Yang Cheng saw Bayern Munich’s starting lineup, he had basically guessed Bayern’s tactical intentions, so he told everyone very confidently that Bayern would definitely attack.

In other words, they had to attack!

If Bayern can score a goal at the beginning of the game and shorten the gap, they will become more and more confident as the game goes on.

Otherwise, the game will remain stalemate and time will be Bayern’s biggest enemy!

Given Bayern’s strength, if they want to attack, it would be best to bring out the threat of Gomez in the center position and Thomas Muller’s smart movement and shooting ability.

Therefore, Yang Cheng believes that Bayern will launch attacks from both flanks.

Altintop and Ribery will be important offensive means for Bayern.

When the game started, the situation was just as Yang Cheng had expected.

Bayern took the initiative to launch an attack.

Just over a minute into the game, Bayern’s right wingers Lahm, Altintop and Thomas Muller formed an offensive combination and tried to pass the ball into the penalty area to find Gomez.

Gomez wants to focus on Thiago Silva.

The Brazilian central defender is truly a top central defender in world football today. His only shortcoming is his height, and the disadvantages in aerial balls and physical confrontations caused by his height disadvantage.

It was also within Yang Cheng’s expectations that Gomez would target Thiago Silva.

Thiago Silva knew he couldn’t compete with Gomez, but he held his position tightly, refusing to jump and holding off Gomez.

Bayern’s center forward failed to exert enough power when heading the ball.

Courtois rushed out of the goal quickly, snatched the ball, then quickly ran to the penalty area line and threw the ball out with one hand.

Toni Kroos appeared in the middle outside the penalty area.

After stopping the ball with his chest, Toni Kroos passed it to Matic and turned around and ran forward.

Matic understood and passed the ball back.

Toni Kroos had already turned around, looked forward, and immediately sent out a long pass.

The arc of this long pass was low and flat, just passing over the heads of Bayern’s defense and falling behind them.

But the ball speed is very fast and the landing point is very accurate.

It just fell into Bayern’s 30-meter area and did not fall into the penalty area.

Gareth Bale moved forward at an extremely fast speed, and before Van Buyten turned around and chased back, he kicked the ball into the left side of Bayern’s penalty area, and then suddenly accelerated.

The Welsh are so fast!

It’s almost like it’s about to fly.

After catching up with the ball on the left side of the penalty area, Gareth Bale pretended to pass it across the middle of the goal, but actually passed it behind Badstuber.

The Bayern center back was tricked by Gareth Bale into sliding down and trying to block the cross.

Unexpectedly, Lewandowski behind him was unguarded. He stopped the ball and shot it again, which went directly into the right side of Neuer’s goal.

1 is better than 0!

“The ball went in!!!”

“Less than 3 minutes into the game, a quick counterattack from the Bayswater Chinese!”

“Gareth Bale once again showed his lightning speed, penetrated Bayern’s defense and made a wonderful assist!”

“Lewandowski scored a crucial goal for Bayswater Chinese in one fell swoop!”

“1 to 0!”

“The current situation is quite unfavorable for Bayern!”

“After conceding this goal, they need to score at least three goals.”

“But we all know that this is basically unrealistic in Bayswater Chinese’s home ground!”

“Bayern’s attack after the opening was a bit too arrogant.”

“Or rather, they really went all out in attacking and completely ignored the defense behind them.”

“Before this game, we all guessed that Bayern had little chance of turning the tide, but we also felt that this would be a very exciting match because Bayern needed to score goals.”

“But we definitely didn’t expect that the Bayswater Chinese’s goal would come so quickly and so suddenly.”

“Within 3 minutes of the game, the total score was 3-0!”

……

The opening attack failed to result in a goal, but the opponent’s first counterattack resulted in a goal with the first shot.

This is really a very painful blow to Bayern.

But Heynckes is right, the Bundesliga team is not a fragile team and they will not collapse so easily.

After conceding the goal, Bayern quickly regrouped.

However, there is one very obvious change, that is, they no longer dare to risk it as they did at the beginning.

Everyone in Bayern is very clear that their mentality has been completely controlled by their opponents.

Keep pressing forward and attacking, and the Chinese in Bayswater will only continue to counterattack from behind.

This left everyone in Bayern with lingering fears.

As Bayern sought stability, the situation of the game gradually turned around.

The Chinese in Bayswater quickly took over the game through their passing and cutting advantages, as well as the strength of the midfield.

But Yang Cheng’s game strategy is also very smart.

For the Chinese in Bayswater now, it is a good thing if they can consume less energy on the three fronts.

Therefore, Yang Cheng signaled the players not to be anxious and to deal with their opponents slowly.

This style of play left Bayern Munich with no good solution.

Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines, looking at Bayern on the field, then looking at his own team, and he was still very happy.

The first thing that came to his mind was the two-legged semi-final between Bayern and Barcelona in the 12/13 season of the Champions League in his previous life.

Many people believed that it was the collapse of Barcelona’s Dream Team III dynasty.

But it’s not.

Since ancient times, all dynasty teams will inevitably face a human problem after three or four years of peak performance.

power!

When players have won all the championships they can and defeated all the teams they can, what motivation do they have to support them to continue fighting so hard in every game?

In fact, the same is true for the head coach.

So, Guardiola chose to leave Barcelona in 2012.

Because he realized that both he and the players in the locker room lacked motivation.

Once there is a lack of motivation, many problems that did not exist in the past or were covered up will erupt one after another.

For example, head coach and players, head coach and management, players and management…

All kinds of contradictions will emerge.

Guardiola left and Vilanova took over.

Taking over a successful team as an assistant coach, Vilanova needs to make changes different from Guardiola. He needs to create more desire for this team that has lost its motivation, and he needs to rejuvenate the players.

There is no doubt that Guardiola’s passing and controlling style of play is very stable, but it is fresh at the beginning, but after a long time, it will naturally become boring.

Not only are the fans boring, the players themselves play boring too.

No one wants to do a simple task mechanically and repetitively like a screwdriver on an assembly line.

So he asked the team to play more directly and aggressively.

He needs to inject some freshness into the team.

But the players’ age, coupled with their success, has caused them to lose the hunger they once had, and that pressure in the front court.

Once the frontcourt loses its pressure, the weak back line will be exposed.

This resulted in Barcelona being slaughtered 7-0 by Bayern in two rounds!
In this case, everyone from Barcelona management to coaching staff to players tried hard to prevent this from happening.

But it happened anyway.

Because this is human nature!
This is how people are born!
Maybe some people are wondering, is there no way to get rid of this problem?

Actually there is, but Barcelona is unwilling to do it.

That’s the transfer.

Selling players and then bringing in new players is the simplest, most direct and most brutal way to inject fresh blood into the team.

Many people are wondering why the Chinese in Bayswater have achieved such brilliant results in the past few years.

The answer lies in the fact that Yang Cheng sells players every year and introduces new players every year.

In this way, we can inject fresh blood to the maximum extent, bring a sense of freshness to the players and make them full of motivation again.

This actually explains why Heynckes was able to restrain Barcelona in the 12/13 season of Yang Cheng’s previous life with the same tactical style, but now he can’t do anything about the Chinese in Bayswater.

It’s not about how awesome Heynckes’ tactical style of play is.

It’s Barcelona’s own problem.

Now, Bayswater Chinese have no such problem!
Facing a team with a stable tactical system, Bayern exposed its own shortcomings.

In the first half stoppage time, when it was almost over, Gustavo made a careless pass back, giving Di Maria an excellent opportunity to counter-attack in the frontcourt.

After the Argentine completed the steal, he quickly broke through Alaba, dribbled the ball into the right side of the penalty area, and passed it to the middle on the right side of the small penalty area. Lewandowski followed up easily and pushed the ball into the goal.

2 is better than 0!

The total score is 4 to 0!

The game is over!
When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, all 9 fans in the stadium stood up wildly and gave the team warm applause and cheers.

Throughout the first half, the Bayswater Chinese completely dominated the game!

Bayern had basically no good solution to the passing and cutting style of the Chinese in Bayswater.

And everyone knows that the Chinese from Bayswater have basically entered the semi-finals!
……

After the change of sides in the second half, Bayern still had no good solution.

The game was deadlocked for a while.

But in the 71st minute, Ribery relied on his personal ability on the left to break through Piszczek and Pepe in the penalty area, and then shot in the penalty area and broke Courtois’ goal.

1 is better than 2!

This goal was more like a face-saving move for Bayern.

Just six minutes later, Bayswater Chinese intercepted the ball in the midfield and launched another quick counterattack.

After Di Maria took the ball on the right side, he quickly moved forward.

Lewandowski moved to the right rib, leaving the middle passage.

The Argentine dribbled into Bayern’s 30-meter area and passed the ball to the left.

Gareth Bale chose to cut inside and made a diagonal pass under the joint interference of Lahm and Gustavo.

On the right side of the penalty area, Lewandowski, who was unguarded, stopped the ball and shot calmly, once again penetrating Neuer’s goal.

3 is better than 1!

Lewandowski scored a hat trick!
Afterwards, both teams began to make substitutions.

Bayern first replaced Alaba with Contento in an effort to strengthen their defense.

But then he replaced Altintop with Olic in an attempt to strengthen the attack.

After 80 minutes, Yang Cheng replaced young players such as Pogba, Harry Kane and Sterling.

In the end, neither side was able to score again.

Bayswater Chinese beat Bayern Munich 3-1 at home thanks to Lewandowski’s hat-trick.

The total score was 5-1, sending the Bundesliga champions home.

Although both the German media and fans around the world were prepared for this result, the score of 5-1 and the dominant performance in the two rounds of the game surprised everyone.

For two or three consecutive seasons, as the number one favorite to win the Champions League, the performance of the Bayswater Chinese this season has impressed everyone.

Especially the stability and dominance shown by Yang Cheng’s team.

All this comes from the team’s midfield!

Even the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung had to admit after Bayern’s disastrous away defeat that the Chinese in Bayswater were slightly stronger than the Bundesliga champions in terms of overall strength.

The British media had mixed feelings.

Fortunately, Bayswater Chinese have once again advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.

Sadly, Wenger’s team lost 8-1 to Guardiola’s team at the Nou Camp after beating Barcelona 0-1 at home in the first leg in the quarter-finals.

Messi gave a wonderful performance!

Barcelona reversed Arsenal with a total score of 3-2 and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

In the two-legged match, Liverpool drew 1-1 with Real Madrid at home and lost 0-2 away.

Mourinho’s team eliminated Mancini’s Liverpool with a total score of 3-1 at the Bernabeu and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

The last team is Ancelotti’s Manchester City.

Ancelotti faced his old club, and after a 0-0 draw away from home, they returned home and beat the Rossoneri 3-1.

As a result, the Champions League semi-finals will basically present a full-scale confrontation between the Premier League and La Liga.

Bayswater Chinese encounter Real Madrid.

Manchester City meets Barcelona.

This season, Mourinho’s team not only broke the round of 16 curse that has plagued Real Madrid for many years, but also led the team into the semi-finals in one go.

……

While the outside media and fans were focusing on the draw for the Champions League semi-finals and the all-out confrontation between the Premier League and La Liga, in Brent, west London, Yang Cheng called everyone from all departments of Brent to a meeting the day after the game against Bayern.

Even Adam Crozier came to the training center with the uniform team.

The topic was not about the Champions League draw or anything else, but about the upcoming game arrangements.

Yang Cheng never makes a fuss.

He attaches so much importance to it because the Chinese in Bayswater are now facing a schedule that is the devil among the devils.

Due to the 2012 European Cup and the 2012 London Olympics, the Premier League schedule this season has been compressed.

The Premier League will end on May 5.

The FA Cup final will be held on May 5.

The Champions League final will be held on May 5.

The result of the compressed schedule on each front is that the Chinese team in Bayswater, who are fighting on three fronts, will face a very difficult and devilish schedule.

Not to mention the previous consecutive games against Manchester United and Bayern, they are all in the past.

On April 4, we will play the 7nd round of the Premier League, away to Stoke City.

On April 4, they will play the 10rd round of the Premier League at home against Arsenal.

On April 4, the FA Cup semi-final was held, with Bayswater Chinese playing away against Liverpool.

Other Premier League teams that did not have FA Cup semi-final matches were facing the 34th round.

On April 4, in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, they will challenge Real Madrid at home.

On April 4, in the 21th round of the Premier League, we faced Manchester City at home.

On April 4, in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, they will challenge Real Madrid away.

On April 4, in the 28th round of the Premier League, we will challenge Swansea away.

On May 5, the 2th round of the Premier League will be played away against Sunderland.

If Bayswater Chinese successfully advance to the FA Cup final, they will play the FA Cup final on May 5.

Then the 37th round of the Premier League, the home game against Everton will be postponed to mid-week.

May 5th is the 13th round of the Premier League.

If the team successfully advances to the Champions League final, it will go to the Allianz Arena in Munich on May 5.

Judging from the entire schedule, if Bayswater Chinese want to successfully win the Triple Crown, then every subsequent game will be crucial.

Moreover, they have to face the pressure of playing two games every week.

Especially in mid-to-late April, they faced Arsenal, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Liverpool in a row, five strong dialogues, all mixed together. This is a nightmare for any team.

Not to mention the Bayswater Chinese, in the whole world, which top team is confident of achieving a perfect record in such a schedule?
The answer is no!
However, if the Bayswater Chinese want to win the treble, they must win all these games.

Manchester City is eyeing the league, Liverpool is in the FA Cup, and Real Madrid is in the Champions League.

We can’t lose any game!
Even if we put aside these strong matches, the worst ranked team among all the teams we will encounter next is Stoke City, which is currently ranked 13th in the Premier League.

Other teams, Everton and Sunderland are both in the top ten of the Premier League, and Swansea is in 11th place.

The opponent in the final round is Wigan Athletic, who are currently fighting for relegation.

In other words, in every next game for Bayswater Chinese, the opponents will be very tough.

Yang Cheng’s team needs to win every game.

Assistant coach Brian Kidd gave a detailed introduction to the current situation the team is facing and the challenges the team will face in the future.

Everyone in the conference room gasped.

This schedule is simply too devilish!
Of course, it’s not that anyone is deliberately trying to kill the Chinese in Bayswater.

The schedule is arranged before the season.

The real reason is that the Chinese in Bayswater are fighting on three fronts and striving for the championship on three fronts at the same time. When it comes to the final stage of the season, they will inevitably encounter the current situation.

Or make a choice and give up one or two fronts.

Either you go all out, go all out, and fight with all your might on every front.

It is very difficult indeed!
After Brian Kidd finished speaking, Yang Cheng, as the team’s head coach, stood up and spoke.

“Over the past few years, I have repeatedly emphasized one thing.”

“In the dictionary of Bayswater Chinese and in the blood of our players, there is no word ‘give up’!”

“We will not give up any game or any event!”

Yang Cheng instilled this belief in every player, so they tried their best in every game.

I may lose, but I will never give up!
Because Yang Cheng believes that it is impossible for a team to call it a strategic decision while at the same time requiring players to go all out in every game and fight for every ball.

Isn’t this a double standard?

When your team strategically gives up some games, it is already telling the players that you don’t need to try so hard and there is no need to fight for every ball.

As for rotation, this is actually normal.

This is how the Chinese in Bayswater have been living over the years.

Even though he almost lost everything at one point, Yang Cheng still persisted.

Facts have also proved that his persistence has injected a strong and tenacious temperament into the Chinese people of Bayswater!
“I know that the upcoming schedule is indeed very difficult. I asked Brian to tell everyone that the purpose is not to dampen everyone’s morale, but to tell you what kind of devilish schedule we will encounter next.”

“In the face of a schedule like this, I need every one of you, every department, to work together with all your strength.”

“My task is to lead the players on the field and play well in every game, and your task is to escort us so that we can train and play without distraction!”

Yang Cheng’s words made everyone present nod their heads.

The victory of a football game is not just the result of the coaches and players who play on the field, but also the countless people who work silently behind the scenes.

For example, for away games, we need to book hotels and air tickets for the team, arrange various formalities, and handle various temporary emergencies…

All these people are scattered across different departments and may be largely unknown.

But once there is a problem in any link, it is likely to affect the team’s collective preparations.

For example, in Yang Cheng’s previous life, in the 2009 Champions League final, Ferguson believed that an important reason why Manchester United lost the game was that the sound insulation of the hotel they stayed in before the game was too poor, and the players generally had poor sleep.

This may be a reason, or even an excuse.

But what if such work omissions did not occur?
Do Manchester United have a chance of beating Barcelona?
On the football field, everything is possible!
Yang Cheng and everyone present had no way of deciding anything on the court.

The only thing we can do is to try our best to eliminate all unfavorable factors.

Adam Crozier was the first to stand up and assure, “Don’t worry, you and the players. I will hold an office meeting as soon as I get back. From now on until the end of this season, all of our team’s work will be centered on the first-team games!”

“I will personally take care of catching the first team, I promise you!”

After Adam Crozier made this statement, Thad Fawcett, director of the sports science department, also stood up and assured that he and all his colleagues would do their best to support and cooperate with Yang Cheng’s first team.

Then there is medical director David Favre, scouting director Gary Worthington, football director Dan Ashworth…

Everyone is responsible for different areas and everyone works together.

Now, they all expressed their willingness to do their best to support Yang Cheng and the work of the first team.

Yang Cheng was very satisfied with this statement.

He has worked with everyone here for many years.

Those guys who are only good at talking will never be able to gain a foothold in Bayswater Chinese.

Because the entire system of this team was created by Yang Cheng.

The people in each node position are personally screened and selected by Yang Cheng.

“Then I can now promise you on behalf of the first team that even though the upcoming schedule is very difficult, even though we will encounter various challenges, even though we may be pushed into a desperate situation by many opponents…”

“But my players and I will continue to persevere on all three fronts. We will fight until the last minute!”

“We will fight for the fourth consecutive Premier League title and the treble!”

As soon as Yang Cheng’s powerful voice fell, a burst of extremely warm applause rang out in the conference room.

Every one of the Chinese in Bayswater is proud of their achievements!
……

On the afternoon of April 4, in the 7nd round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese challenged Stoke City away.

Tony Pulis’ team adopted a 442 formation at home, but they set up a tight defense.

Although Stoke City has temporarily escaped the danger of relegation, they are not very safe.

Yang Cheng’s team had just fought hard against Bayern in the Champions League, and they were about to play against Arsenal, so the team made a large rotation.

But facing such a team that set up a solid defense at home, the Bayswater Chinese players really couldn’t come up with a good solution.

Stoke City is not a weak team that can be bullied.

The forward line includes famous players such as Crouch and Pennant, and the defensive line also has powerful players such as Robert Huth and Shawcross.

It can be said that the strength of this team cannot be underestimated.

Facing a solid defense, long shots are very important and are one of the ways to break through dense defense.

But in this game, the Chinese in Bayswater took turns to shoot.

Aaron Ramsey made three long shots.

Other players, including Pogba and Giroud, also frequently threatened the opponent’s goal with long-range shots.

Hazard took advantage of his ability to get and control the ball and frequently made breakthroughs with the ball.

But these offensive methods had little effect.

On one side, they were defending themselves strictly, while on the other side, they were constantly planning attacks, which made the situation one-sided.

It was not until the 68th minute of the second half that Aaron Ramsey sent a through ball in the midfield.

Walcott started quickly on the right, dribbling the ball all the way to the right side of Stoke City’s penalty area.

On the right side of the penalty area, the little tiger first made an emergency stop, then suddenly started and made a cross near the baseline.

The ball was blocked by Stoke City center back Robert Huth and went out of bounds.

It turned into a corner kick.

De Bruyne, who had just come on as a substitute, ran to the corner area, picked up the football thrown by the ball boy, put it on the jersey in his arms, wiped it clean, then gently placed it in the corner area, stepped on the grass behind the ball, and slowly backed away.

In the penalty area, Bayswater Chinese central defenders Kompany, Jose Fonte, Kyle Walker, Pogba and others all rushed into the penalty area.

De Bruyne raised his left hand high, made a gesture, and then quickly kicked a curved ball.

The football drew an arc and quickly fell into the middle of Stoke City’s penalty area.

The restricted area suddenly became chaotic.

At the most critical moment, Kompany quickly pushed away Shawcross, who had been defending him and grabbing his jersey on his chest. After judging the path of the ball, he quickly stepped forward and jumped high.

The Belgian center back used his bald head that looked like a boiled egg to meet the falling football and headed it towards the left side of the goal.

Stoke City goalkeeper Sorensen reacted quickly and dived sideways.

But no matter how fast he is, can he be as fast as the ball headed by Kompany?

The football hit the left side of Stoke City’s goal.

The moment Kompany landed, he was stunned for a moment, but immediately turned around and ran, rushing all the way to the sidelines, rushing to the stands of Bayswater Chinese fans who followed the team to the away game, kneeling hard on the grass, cheering and shouting excitedly.

Behind him, the players of Bayswater Chinese rushed over one after another and surrounded him.

“The ball went in!”

“Header from Kompany!”

“It was a very crucial goal.”

“We saw that the Stoke players were very excited.”

“Shawcross kept protesting to the referee, saying Kompany had pushed him away, which was a foul and the goal should not be counted.”

“From the slow-motion replay, we can see that both players had moves with their hands, and neither was clean.”

“But the referee obviously thought the goal was valid!”

“1 to 0!”

“This goal is crucial for Bayswater Chinese!”

“With these three points, they will put more pressure on Manchester City in their next away game against Arsenal.”

“Blue Moon must beat Arsenal in this strong match in order to maintain pressure on Bayswater Chinese.”

When the live TV camera turned to the coaching seats on the sidelines, Tony Pulis could be seen roaring and protesting against the foul committed by the Chinese in Bayswater.

Yang Cheng clenched his fists excitedly and cheered and roared over there.

There is a very obvious difference between the two!

After attacking for more than an hour, the Chinese in Bayswater finally broke through Stoke City’s iron defense!
Yang Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, all the pressure will be on Manchester City!
