Chapter 711 Unbearable
In terms of creating chances and deadly passes, Li Feng dares to be the second and who dares to be the first. Looking at his assist data, we can see that the league has only played 32 rounds, but Li Feng's assists have reached a desperate 33. You know, assists are sometimes even more difficult than goals.

However, Manchester City failed to seize the opportunity in the first half. Li Feng sent two deadly passes to Balotelli. Unfortunately, Balotelli failed to grasp them and created a chance for Aguero. Similarly, the Argentine failed to bring Manchester City a goal. In the end, the first half ended in a draw.

Although Manchester City was slightly inferior to Arsenal in terms of ball possession throughout the first half, and not as good as the number of shots, but the quality of chance creation was significantly higher than Arsenal's. Therefore, Van Basten was quite satisfied with the team's performance in the first half.

"However, we need to pay more attention in the second half. Arsenal's striker is in very good condition. You should know the goal rate this season. So in the second half, we should not take it lightly, but also strengthen our defense." For Van Persie, Van Basten is naturally familiar with him, and he is even thinking about the fellow Dutchman.

It is conceivable that after the end of the season, Manchester City and Van Basten will definitely select strikers all over the world. Manchester City's striker has become the biggest problem. If Manchester City cannot achieve the desired results this season, the fault must be the striker's back.

At the same time, in the locker room of the home team, Wenger was also reminding his disciples to be careful of Li Feng. However, Wenger also knew that it was impossible to really see Li Feng dead. In today's world football, Li Feng, Messi, and Ronaldo are almost incomprehensible existences.

"Well~~~ It seems that both sides are very confident in their players, and they didn't make any adjustments during the halftime break." After the halftime break, the players from both sides returned to the field.

The kick-off in the second half belonged to Manchester City, but Manchester City did not get any chance to shoot. In terms of defense, Arsenal actually did quite well. Vermaelen and Koscielny performed very well, and Sagna and Gibson did not make any mistakes.

So in the first 10 minutes of the second half, there was a situation just before the first half. It was more than intense, but there was no wonderful shot. The only accident happened to Balotelli, but this time it was not his unprovoked foul, but he was brought down by others.

Sooner or later, this sentence was verified again. After Balotelli received the pass, he was shoveled by Alexander Song. Although he touched the ball, Alexander Song did not let it go.

As for whether it was intentional or not able to stand it, it is open to discussion. After all, Balotelli deliberately stepped on him in the first half, and Balotelli had a bad record before, so the referee did not draw a card for Alexander Song.

This immediately aroused Balotelli's dissatisfaction, and he jumped up from the ground. This made the referee even more sure that Balotelli's inability to sit on the ground was completely pretending, and even directly gave Balotelli a warning.

This directly caused Balotelli to leave the field. After 8 minutes of the game, Arsenal attacked and the ball came to Alexander Song's feet, but before it could be passed to a teammate, a blue figure rushed over.

On the 45th, Balotelli, Atkinson didn't say anything, and directly received a red card, and Balotelli was obviously mentally prepared, shrugging his shoulders, indicating that he didn't care, and then walked off the court directly and walked into the locker room.

On the sidelines, Van Basten no longer concealed his expression. At this moment, the face of the Dutchman was so ugly that it couldn't be worse. Van Basten had reached the limit of his patience with Balotelli's endless behavior.

But Van Basten is also very clear that no matter how angry he is at the moment, it will not help. What he needs to do now is to stabilize the situation on the court.

Manchester United has already won the game, and now it is difficult to win without one person, but at the very least, Van Basten also needs to hold on to a draw.

Adam Johnson retreated, standing parallel to Li Feng, separated on both sides, Barry and De Jong formed a double midfielder, Aguero was a single forward, Manchester City changed their tactics and played a defensive counterattack.

On the other side, Wenger clenched his fists. He knew very well that Arsenal would have an absolute advantage in the next game, but he knew very well that with Li Feng's presence, Arsenal must be careful.

He doesn't want to be Chelsea. Wenger still remembers the game last season. Looking at the blue No. 7 on the field, Wenger couldn't help but regret flashed in his eyes.

Wenger believes that if Li Feng joins Arsenal, then Arsenal will definitely be able to compete for the long-awaited championship this season. Thinking about the combination of Van Persie and Li Feng, they can simply sweep the Premier League and even set their sights on the coveted Champions League.

But all of this is impossible. Now that Li Feng is a player of Manchester City, even the most important member of Manchester City, it is impossible to get Li Feng now. Even if Li Feng and Manchester City have some conflicts and finally part ways, it is probably not Arsenal's turn. The most likely possibility is to send Li Feng to other countries' leagues.

So Wenger was not in a hurry, but walked to the sidelines to signal his disciples not to worry, be patient when attacking, to prevent being counterattacked by Manchester City.

Another major reason why Wenger can be so stable is that Arsenal have lost the league championship this season for safety.

It can even be said that this season's league is a battle between the two heroes of Manchester City. This round of the league has already reached 32 rounds, and there are still six rounds left. Even if Manchester City loses all the remaining six rounds, and even loses this round to Arsenal, they are still one point away from surpassing Manchester City.

Since there is no possibility of winning the championship, there is no need for Wenger to worry. Even if it is a draw, Arsenal is not unacceptable. It should be Manchester City who can't sit still.

Seeing the next performance of Wenger and Arsenal, Van Basten could only shake his head and smile wryly. Arsenal is not Chelsea, and Wenger is not Boas.

At the same time, there was an ominous feeling in Van Basten's heart. If Arsenal launched a storm after Balotelli was sent off, it might be a good thing for Manchester City, but this is the situation now.

Sure enough, Manchester City couldn't bear it any longer. When the opponent was unable to launch a strong attack, the Manchester City players became impatient.

Then the development of the stadium gradually began to move towards a strange scene. Manchester City, lacking one player, changed the previous situation and began to take advantage, while Arsenal, with a complete lineup, began to shrink.
