Chapter 609 The money can make a ghost run the mill

However, because of the busy stadium in April, neither the players nor the head coach in the Manchester City team had the mood and time to deal with the criticism from the outside world.

Everyone immersed themselves in the training in a strange atmosphere of silence, as if they wanted to forget their previous failures.

But this kind of self-deception made everyone put the haze of failure behind them, but it also suppressed the mentality gap after the setback in the bottom of their hearts.

This emotion has not been resolved, has not been released, and finally laid a hidden danger for Manchester City's next game.

On April 4th, entering the second game in April, the 6rd round of the league, they played at home against Annampton, who is ninth in the standings.

In the first round, Annampton drew Manchester City 1-1 at home.

But this time, at Manchester City's home court, in front of more than 7 Manchester City fans, after 10 minutes of the game, Annampton once again drew Manchester City with a score of 1-1.

In fact, it is a bit unrealistic to say that it was a draw. It should be said that Manchester City managed to avoid defeat.

In the first half, Annampton scored the first goal, leading Manchester City 0-1.

In a normal game, the performance of the Manchester City team was comparable to sleepwalking, and was once beaten by Annampton.

Obviously, the Manchester City players have not recovered from the last Champions League defeat.

If Yang Mo hadn't used a super lob to equalize the score in the 84th minute of the second half, Manchester City's unbeaten dream of winning the championship this season would have been shattered.

The draw with Manchester City in the two games, the record that Annampton created in Manchester City, only Arsenal and Chelsea have done this season.

But everyone can see that Annampton's victory in this game has nothing to do with Annampton's strength, it is entirely Manchester City's own problem.

Except for Yang Mo, the players were absent-minded for a few days.

Manchester City, a team built with victories and money, disintegrated too quickly when faced with setbacks.

After the narrow victory over Annampton, the top management of the Manchester City club realized the seriousness of the problem. The impact of the fiasco on Manchester City was even more serious than they imagined.

In the evening, Mansour, the big patron of Manchester City, flew to Manchester by plane.

Early the next morning, Mansour held a high-level meeting on the problems facing the team.

In addition to the top management of Manchester City and the coaching staff of the first team, Yang Mo, as the captain of the team, was also invited to participate.

At the beginning of the meeting, Mansur said straight to the point: "Even if we are eliminated from the Champions League, I don't want to see the team become like this!"

"Now the problem is clear, and I hope everyone can come up with a solution."

Speaking of which, Mansour looked to team president Mubarak and asked: "When is the next match and who is the opponent?"

"Three days later, in the third round of No.30 in the league, we played away against Liverpool." Mubarak blurted out.

"That's three days. After three days, I will go to Liverpool to watch the game in person. At that time, I can see the change of the team!"

Mansur's tone was very bad.

"I will let you see." Mubarak issued a "military order."

After Mansour said these words, he turned around and left the meeting room. This Dajin mainly cares about the result, and he doesn't care about the process.

"Coach Pellegrini, you heard what Mr. Mansour said. As the head coach of the team, is there any way to change all this?"

Mubarak first asked Pellegrini a question, in a very blunt tone.

After all, Pellegrini, as the head coach, couldn't get rid of the relationship in the defeat against Barcelona.

"I think this situation is mainly due to the mentality of the players. Mental counseling is needed for the players. I suggest finding a professional psychologist to do this."

Mubarak nodded at Pellegrini's suggestion.

Next, Mubarak asked other Manchester City executives and members of the coaching staff, and everyone gave various suggestions.

Some of these seem plausible, while others are complete nonsense.

But after all, the most pressing core problem for everyone is that the time is too short.

The 33rd round of the league against Liverpool is only three days away, and just three days after the end of the league with Liverpool, the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals against Barcelona is coming.

Although Manchester City counted 4-0 in the first round, in everyone's heart, they still longed for such a miracle.

But the problem is, with the gloomy atmosphere in the Manchester City team, let alone a miracle, it would be good not to encounter a massacre.

The time left for Manchester City to adjust is too short.

Seeing that the discussions come and go, and the solutions proposed by everyone will take time, Mubarak is also a little anxious.

In the end, Mubarak looked at Yang Mo who had not spoken.

"Yang, do you have anything to say?"

Compared with the rude attitude towards other people, the tone of Mubarak and Yang Mo's speech can only be described as spring breeze.

Now in the Manchester City team, if there is still a fighting spirit, Yang Mo is the only one left.

Coupled with Mansour's love for Yang Mo, as well as Yang Mo's own strength and influence, Mubarak couldn't help but be rude.

The most important thing is that Manchester City and Yang Mo's contract renewal have not yet been negotiated. There are so many wolves and tigers in the outside world who are always coveting Yang Mo. Mubarak doesn't want to push Yang Mo out because of a small problem.

"If you want to change the atmosphere of the team in a short period of time, I think what Mr. Kidd said just now is right. A simple victory is enough."

"As for how to win, I don't have a good idea, but I have a bad one."

Yang Mo stopped at this point.

Hearing this, Mubarak didn't care whether the idea was bad or not, he only wanted to solve the problem now, so he hurriedly asked: "Yang, tell me quickly, as long as it can solve the problem now, it's a good idea."

"It's very simple, it just requires the team to pay some price." Yang Mo made a gesture of asking for money.

"You mean, use money to motivate everyone?" Mubarak instantly understood what Yang Mo meant.

Yang Mo nodded and said, "In my motherland, there is a saying that money can make the devil work for you."

"We all have to admit that Manchester City, without a deep background, wants to inspire everyone's fighting spirit with a sense of honor, and I find it difficult."

"My team-mates come from all over the world and the main reason they come to Manchester City is to make money."

"No one thinks there is too much money, and only money can make them temporarily throw away everything in a short period of time and only hope for victory."

While listening to Yang Mo's words, Mubarak nodded while touching his chin and said, "That's right, who would have trouble with money?"

"I'm going to discuss it with Mr. Mansour."

After speaking, Mubarak left in a hurry.
