I brush achievements in football

For the Southampton fans, they are also looking forward to the new season-first of all, they are looking forward to the Champions League game, and secondly, although the team sold three main players, they also signed in and left most of them. The main players, especially Vidal, William and Ronaldo, who were transferred at a high price last season, have all stayed, which is enough to prove the team's ambition.

If you are not afraid of selling people, you are afraid that the team will not have ambitions.

After Ji Ya took over, Southampton has never disappointed the fans in this regard. Although there is no big hand, the fans also know the current situation of the team, and of course they will not have any unrealistic fantasies.

It's good to be able to buy a few international players at every turn!

Southampton fans are still very easy to satisfy.

They also have a lot of interest in the next away game against Manchester City.

Manchester City's lineup has not changed this season, and Ji Ya is somewhat dismissive of this.

"Don't buy an excellent central defender, and don't buy a really good midfielder... Rodwell looks like a genius, but his strength is only mediocre. We can deal with their middle lane well." Ji Ya said in the game Say before you start.

Mancini sent a four-four-two lineup for this game. Obviously he found that facing Southampton, four-three-three is not very effective. In fact, in the second half of last season, he used four-four-two for a long time. After all, adding up to four good forwards, playing a single center would be too wasteful.

Goalkeeper Hart, defenders Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, midfielder Nasri and Silva on the wings, Rodwell and Yaya Toure in the middle, forward Tevey The Argentine combination of Adams and Aguero.

Carlos Tevez had been arguing about the transfer for two years, but the transfer was still unsuccessful, so he had to bow his head and apologize, and then regained the chance to play.

"Mancini expects Rodwell to support their midfield defense. It is simply too naive. De Jong and Barry can only do things, expect Rodwell to do it? He thought he was Maclay Lai..."

Ji Ya complained in his heart, and then waited for the start of the match.

After the start of the game, Southampton kept suppressing Manchester City in the middle. In other words, they were bullying Rodwell. Rodwell was a rookie, and he was plagued by injuries last season. After being robbed by Mkhitaryan and Vidal, he immediately became a little flustered.

"Henrik's running and pressing abilities have improved a lot." Benelli said with some surprise.

Ji Ya smiled and said nothing. This was already obvious last season. Mkhitaryan was also strengthening his own shortcomings during training. This is indeed a bit difficult for him. A pure No. [-] player, Start working on your running and defense...

Just for this point, Ji Ya felt that he should give him more chances.

In comparison, Schneiderlin and Drinkwater seem to be progressing slowly, but Ji Ya is not in a hurry. After all, they are not very old, one is 22 and the other is 23. This period is also a period of gradual improvement , as long as they can seize the opportunity, they can still make a leap.

Manchester City suffered a disadvantage in the midfield, but their offense started from the wing, and then handed over to the center to complete the offense.

At this time, the performance of new aid Otamendi came to the fore.

The previous main central defender Lovren was tall, and although he was not slow to move his feet, he was a tall central defender after all. When facing fast and agile defenders, it was a bit difficult, but Otamendi was different. Facing two He is familiar with the compatriots of the national team, and he can keep up with them.

Carlos Tevez was also unlucky. He broke through twice in a row, but Otamendi judged in advance and destroyed the ball.

Seeing that Tevez was struggling to attack, Manchester United's players began to pass the ball to Aguero to attack.

Aguero is not as good as Carlos Tevez in passing and dribbling, but his scoring ability is much better.

Soon after, he caught the ball and finished a shot, forcing a save from Keylor Navas.

"This guy is really troublesome. He was also the most difficult guy to deal with last season." Ji Ya muttered.

As a top shooter, Aguero can indeed bring the greatest damage.

But what surprised Ji Ya was that his luck seemed to be good in this game-Aguero got the ball from the wing in the 8th minute, and then Klein entangled him. During the entanglement, the two fell to the ground at the same time. Klein Standing up quickly, Aguero was carried off the field on a stretcher...

The Manchester City fans were also a little speechless. This is a normal physical contact. As a result, Aguero unfortunately injured his knee.

Really can only say bad luck.

Mancini was a little speechless and replaced Dzeko, which was an unplanned substitution.

However, Manchester City's offense was not affected too much. They quickly launched an offense. Nasri was very active on the wing, constantly breaking through Blind's defense.

Blind also gritted his teeth and persisted. He clung to Nasri, relying on his physical advantages to keep pressing the Frenchman.

Under such pressure, Nasri gradually became less active - his relatively fragile body was his greatest weakness.

The center was suppressed by Southampton, and Linasri was controlled on both wings. Only David Silva was left to initiate Manchester City's attack.

Of course, the level of the Spaniard is unquestionable. It was his breakthrough that created the first good opportunity for Manchester City. After his breakthrough, he passed a wonderful pass into the penalty area. Tevez took the ball and turned around, and then suddenly flicked the ball. Otamendi's reaction was a step slow, and when he stretched out his foot to block it, he tripped Tevez to the ground. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick!

"Damn it, Tevez is really cunning..." Ji Ya cursed angrily, but soon, he jumped up again.

Silva took the penalty kick and the ball flew to the lower right corner. Navas made an accurate judgment and jumped to the side at the first time, saving the ball out of the bottom line!

"Good job!"

Kiya waved her fist and shouted.

Now it's the turn of the Manchester City fans to hold their heads, while the morale of the Southampton players is soaring!

They clapped hands with Navas one after another, and Navas clapped his hands: "Come on! Hold on to this attack!"

Silva took a corner kick and the ball was cleared by Wundt with a header. Rodwell took the ball from outside the penalty area. He tried to pass and shoot, but Mkhitaryan who jumped up directly lifted the ball and broke it!

After stealing the ball, Mkhitaryan quickly distributed the ball to the right, and then accelerated to run forward.

William took the ball on the right. Suddenly, Benteke in the center, Ronaldo in the left, and Mkhitaryan and Vidal followed up. Southampton's counterattack quickly launched an offensive!
