I Want to Be the King of Football

Manchester City's 4-0 victory over Liverpool at home not only caused a strong earthquake in the entire English football world, but even European football was shocked by it, and major media and fans all over the world also looked at it.

This once again confirms a rule: wherever Su Dong goes, where is the focus!

Returning to the game itself, Liverpool head coach Hodgson was criticized after the game, especially his 442 formation when facing Manchester City, which made him the focus of criticism.

In this contest between the coaches, Hodgson lost to the hands of rookie Guardiola.

What's more, in this much-anticipated center battle, Torres' performance was very sluggish, like sleepwalking.

Even Liverpool's local echo was extremely disappointed with Torres' performance.

Torres didn't come forward like he did when the team needed him the most, but got lost in City's possession forest and couldn't find his way.

This is also the evaluation of Hodgson's game by the outside world. It is believed that Liverpool failed to find a way to threaten the opponent in Manchester City's passing control style, and could only passively resist again and again.

Sky Sports scored the players of the two teams after the game, and Torres scored the lowest five points in the game.

A total of six Liverpool players have five points, which is already a bad score.

Interestingly, Glen Johnson, Skrtel, Carragher and Agger all scored five points. These four players just made up a defensive line, and their evaluations were basically the same, that is, the game was played very hard.

The lowest score in the game was Liverpool's left winger Jovanovic. His performance on the left can no longer be described with words such as sleepwalking. He basically has no sense of existence. to his presence.

Su Dong scored a game-high nine points, Sanchez, Marcelo, Di Maria, Toni Kroos, David Silva and others all scored eight points, and Busquets scored seven points.

It is not difficult to see from this that Manchester City's overall performance in this game is indeed better.

Sky Sports said in the analysis that Su Dong made 48 passes in the audience and succeeded 46 times, of which 36 successful passes were completed in the frontcourt.

Even in Pep Guardiola's team, these are staggering numbers.

Sky Sports compared the data between Sudong and Manchester City's main center Santa Cruz last season, and believes that the changes brought by Sudong are not only his goals and assists.

And his connection and support in the frontcourt.

This is reflected in the passing data. Su Dong's success rate is close to 100%, which is quite scary.

Forty-eight passes in the game are basically the passing data of midfielders and even core midfield players in other teams, and forty-six successful passes, such a success rate, even the highest in the Premier League. It's very, very rare in the top giants, but Su Dong is a center with the tightest defense.

Sky Sports believes that the reason why Manchester City's frontcourt offense has been reborn this season is because of Su Dong.

Not only can he score goals, he can also assist, pass, support, and open defense, which makes all players who play next to Su Dong feel relieved.

Manchester City's tactical core must be in the midfield. After training in the summer, Guardiola gradually explored the midfield combination of David Silva, Toni Kroos and Busquets. These three players can help Manchester City jail. Take possession of the ball firmly.

But at the same time, in the frontcourt, Su Dong is also the most important core player of Manchester City, and even the connection between him and the midfielders is more frequent than anyone else, which makes Manchester City's entire midfield and frontcourt, forming a kind of A well-functioning pass-and-control mechanism.

Sky Sports analysis believes that Su Dong has almost seamlessly integrated into Manchester City's passing control system, and even led to the improvement of Guardiola's tactical system, giving people a feeling that Manchester City has been reborn this season.

He created a constant threat up front at Manchester City, daunting defenders like Carragher, Skrtel and Agger!

With the start of the new season, the popularity of the Premier League is not only local, but even burns to the whole world.

The day after Manchester City beat Liverpool 4-0, the Premier League also announced the sales of overseas broadcast rights of the Premier League for the next three years.

Starting from this season, the Premier League will earn 500 million pounds from overseas copyrights for each season in the next three years, and will be broadcast live in 200 countries and regions around the world. Among all professional sports leagues in the world, overseas copyright income is the highest. of.

In addition to overseas copyrights, the three-year local copyright contract currently executed by the Premier League has a total revenue of 2 billion pounds, which is equivalent to more than 700 million pounds per season.

That is to say, in the local plus overseas market, the Premier League's broadcast rights revenue per season is as high as 1.2 billion pounds.

This is absolutely an astronomical sum.

According to the current two contracts, the winning team of the Premier League this season will at least exceed 60 million pounds in the broadcast fee alone, which is quite amazing in the four major European leagues.

For example, Serie A is deeply affected by the telephone door. The overseas copyright income of Serie A is not high, only 74 million pounds, which is only 10 million pounds more than the share of the Premier League champions this season.

The Bundesliga and Ligue 1 are even worse.

Su Dong has played in the Bundesliga for three and a half years. Although the German team has vigorously developed the overseas market in the past few years, the annual overseas copyright income of the Bundesliga is only about 40 million pounds. The market got less results, just over 10 million pounds.

In other words, the annual overseas copyright revenue of the entire Bundesliga is not as good as the share of the copyright revenue of the Premier League champion team.

Ligue 1 is even worse, with only £25 million.

The situation in La Liga is the most special. Since the copyright sales are fought separately by the clubs, the two giants, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​have made a lot of money. The overseas copyright income of the two teams is as high as more than 130 million pounds. Pretty staggering numbers.

It is not difficult to reflect from this point that the Western Super duo are quite special even in the entire European football world.

In professional football, although money cannot represent everything, it is really impossible to do anything without it.

The Premier League is clearly on its way to becoming the richest professional league in European and even world football.

Su Dong has become a core player in the Premier League's fight against the international brand and vigorously develop the international market.

Manchester City are at home against Romania's Timisoara.

After defeating the opponent 4-0 away from home, Manchester City's situation will be easier after returning to home.

In this game, Guardiola adopted a rotation strategy and carried out a wide-ranging rotation of the team's starting lineup, including Santa Cruz, Wright Phillips, Adam Johnson and others who have all obtained starting qualifications.

But in the course of the game, Manchester City has never been able to break the opponent's goal.

Folado still has a certain level. In the away game, he used the four-five-one tactics of the five midfielders. Strictly guard against death.

It was not until the 58th minute of the second half that the German center-back Jerome Boateng, who started in place of Kompany, opened the scoring for Manchester City with a corner kick.

Then in the 73rd minute, Wright Phillips scored another victory to help the team win 2-0.

This made Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium extremely satisfied with the team's performance.

In the game against Timisoara, Su Dong sat on the bench the whole time and did not play.

But the day after playing Timisoara, Su Dong asked the coaching staff for leave and rushed to Monaco non-stop.

The annual UEFA Champions League group stage draw and UEFA award ceremony are still held at the Grimaldi Conference Center in Monaco.

After joining Manchester City, Su Dong encountered a very embarrassing thing.

That is, he was shortlisted for UEFA's best striker of the year, and he is also the number one favorite of the best player of the year, but unfortunately, he missed the Champions League this season. This is an extremely rare situation, and it also makes Su Dong quite concerned. Awkward.

If he was there, he would have to sit in the venue and watch the draw for the 32 Champions League teams, which has nothing to do with him.

At first, Su Dong was reluctant to go, but from UEFA President Platini, to Secretary General Infantino, to Beckenbauer and other celebrities, they all called Su Dong, thinking that he should go to the scene Attend the award ceremony.

In particular, Platini made several calls in a row, which made Su Dong really unable to evade.

No choice but to go.

As long as you are not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed!

As the media said before, other people can't play in the World Cup, which is the loss of his career, but Su Dong can't play in the World Cup, that's the loss of the World Cup.

In the same way, if others can't play in the Champions League, it is a loss of his career, but if Su Dong can't play in the Champions League, it is also a huge loss in the Champions League.

So that Su Dong finally came to Monaco. After entering the Grimaldi Conference Center, he was immediately targeted by Platini and Infantino. The two surrounded Su Dong at the same time, as if they were afraid of him. Turn around and walk away.

To be honest, I still haven't figured it out, why did you go to Manchester City? Platini was very puzzled.

Without Su Dong in the Champions League, it really lost a lot of color.

At least lose a lot of attention.

No reason. Su Dong smiled and shook his head, stared at Platini, and said word by word, I just hope there will be more suspense in the Champions League.

Don't ask, asking is the brilliance of human nature!
