Chapter 709 Guests

Manchester United swept Manchester City 6-2 at home. This Manchester Derby had a much greater impact than Sun Wu expected.

After the game, Guardiola admitted that he underestimated the difficulty of the Premier League this season, and it will be difficult for Manchester City to comeback in the rest of the schedule.

There are still ten rounds left in the league. Liverpool leads the way with 73 points, followed by Manchester United with 71 points. Manchester City, who has one game less, has 63 points and has been pulled down by 8 points. The unlucky Chelsea has been relegated in advance this round. Fulham tied with Fulham and ranked fourth with 63 points due to goal difference.

"Liverpool and Manchester United?"

When interviewed by reporters, Guardiola shrugged, "Although they are rivals in the same city, I think Manchester United has a higher chance of winning the championship than Liverpool."

Sun Wu in the study couldn't help curling his lips. After 10 rounds, the gap was less than 10 points. Guardiola conceded?
This is poisonous milk!

No, it's not just tainted milk, it's still stimulating Liverpool.

At present, Liverpool is the leader, and just this month, the Double Red Club, which can affect the ownership of this season's league to a certain extent, is about to start.

Just thinking about it, Suarez called over there.

"Louis, I understand, I understand!" Sun Wu said with a smile: "You must know that Manchester City has one game less... Let me think about it, well, it is a home game against Aston Villa, so Manchester City is actually only 7 points behind Liverpool. Five points behind Manchester United."

"Yes, yes, Guardiola wants to make a profit...don't worry about it, you know."

"A draw is the least cost-effective, and there is still one game between you and Manchester City."

"By the way, you guys lost the game... This is the best way, isn't that what you thought when you called?"

Su Ya on the other end of the phone was congested with chest tightness... What do I mean? !

I bother!

Sun Wu, who dropped his phone, curled his lips and made a helpless gesture towards Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun. Today he specially invited the two to visit his home and accept some informal interviews with Zhan Jun.

"Indeed, this Manchester United team is far from perfect, not even perfect." Sun Wu added some hot water to the teacups of the guests, "For example, there is a lack of a strong center forward, a lack of wing breakthrough players, and individual positions in the midfield and backcourt. It also needs to be strengthened, but it is not impossible to win the championship this season."

"The "Times" said that you are a touchstone." Zhang Lu laughed and said: "Zhan Jun has counted that when you are on the field, more than 70% of Manchester United's goals are related to you. Geba's first goal, in fact, you didn't touch the ball, a missed ball turned decay into magic..."

Hearing such compliments from "Sun Chui" face to face, Sun Wu blushed a little, and he checked in his heart that he was still too thin-skinned...

"I noticed that Pogba's position in the game is a bit special?" Zhan Jun brought up this topic that has attracted much attention in the British football industry recently. Geba dribbled a few times after he came on."

"This set of tactics is still being discussed and practiced, and there may be revisions." Sun Wu explained with a smile: "Actually, it was forced, and there is really a lack of breakthrough players on the wing. Ashley Young and Valencia are both traditional players. A winger, Januzaj is inexperienced."

Zhan Jun smiled. He actually knew that Sun Wu didn't like the Belgian winger very much, but since Sun Wu didn't want to mention it, he didn't want to ask about it.

"Beating Manchester City is a 12-game winning streak, which is two games away from the club record." Zhang Lu said with great interest: "The next match against West Brom should be no problem."

Sun Wu remained cautious, "It's hard to say, Pochettino will be suspended for the next game."

"Fortunately, it's only suspended for one game." Zhan Jun chuckled, "Guardiola is more miserable."

Sun Wu also laughed. After the Manchester Derby, the FA punished the coaches of both sides according to the record of the on-duty referee Webber.

Pochettino was suspended for one game in a standard manner. Anyway, he won, so even if he is dissatisfied, he can bear it.

And Guardiola...he criticized Webber's penalty in the post-match press conference, denounced Aguero's penalty kick that was not awarded, denounced Ashley Young for diving and cheating, and denounced Fletcher and Janu Zahi should have been sent off.

As a result, Guardiola was suspended for two games and fined £5000.

"The next game will be the Double Red Club." Zhang Lu continued, "Can Manchester United play with all the main players in this game?"

"It's hard to say." Sun Wu shook his head, "Schneiderlin checked out yesterday for a slight injury, Thomas Muller and
"Liverpool, Klopp probably has a headache too." Zhan Jun said with a smile: "Although the Merseyside Derby won, it lost Kagawa Shinji and Sturridge consecutively."

"But in terms of offense, Liverpool is well-managed, and even Coutinho has been on the bench for a while." Sun Wu smiled wryly.

Another world-class star who was pitted by Sun Wu, Coutinho moved to Liverpool last winter. His 3 goals and 5 assists in half a season immediately made him the darling of Liverpool.

But last summer, Klopp came to Anfield ahead of schedule. He brought Shinji Kagawa and Firmino. But with the rise of Sterling, he also lost his main position.

However, in the Merseyside Derby, Coutinho came on as a substitute for the injured Shinji Kagawa, and the Cloud Piercer World Wave goal from 27 meters away made great contributions to the team.

He will be a player that cannot be ignored in the Double Red Club. Sun Wu has been doing Coutinho's homework these days.

"Coutinho is indeed good, do you have a good relationship with him?" Zhang Lu asked curiously.

"Well, the best relationship between Liverpool and me is Suarez, who just called him, followed by Coutinho and Firmino." Sun Wu spread his hands, "I wanted the club to buy Couti last summer. What about Neo?"

"Hahaha, how is it possible." Zhang Lu laughed and said, "The player trade between Liverpool and Manchester United... Ferguson and Heinze had such a fierce fight back then!"

There hasn't been a player deal between Liverpool and Manchester United for a full half century...the last time was exactly 50 years ago in 1964.

After chatting for a while, Sun Wu invited the guests to the table, and Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun flew back to China early tomorrow morning.

"You guys eat Chinese food every day. Today, I hired a Uruguayan chef to change the taste." Sun Wu said with a smile: "We won't try the British... dark dishes."

"British food... is actually pretty good." Zhan Jun also smiled, "For example, that thing looking up at the sky..."

Zhang Lu shook his red wine glass, "This red wine is not bad."

"Can I take it on the plane tomorrow? Take a few bottles with me." Sun Wu said casually, "Pirlo has two vineyards and wineries in Italy, and he sent me a batch."

"You don't have anyone in your network..."

"The nutritionist told him not to drink alcohol." Fei Sun said with a smile, "Here it is...he was snatched away by his teammates last time!"

"Is it just my teammate?" Sun Wu snorted, "Manchester City is also quite ruthless!"

"Manchester City?" Zhang Lu asked curiously, "You have frequent contacts with Manchester City players?"

Zhan Jun also asked: "I remember there was a report about this. Manchester City players will be guests during the New Year?"

"There are a lot of visitors from Manchester City. Here, their assistant coach comes every day." Fei Sun raised her chin towards the door, "Patrick... eh?"

Sun Wu turned his head and looked, hey, besides Christine behind Patrick, Guardiola also came to the door.

This is Guardiola's first visit to Sun Wu's house.
