Chapter 834 Van Basten's Worries

(The third update will be added yesterday, don’t worry)

Undoubtedly, the most lively transfer period is the Premier League. After all, today’s Premier League has the style of the small Serie A World Cup. There are more and more strong teams, and the competition is becoming more and more fierce.

From Liverpool and Manchester United, to Arsenal and Manchester United, and then to the rise of Chelsea, the Premier League ushered in the traditional semi-finals. Now, with the rise of Manchester City, the madness of Tottenham, and the disruption of Newcastle United and other powerful teams, the Premier League can be said to usher in a prosperous age.

In terms of investment in the major leagues this summer, there is no doubt that the Premier League has a net investment of 8000 million euros, Manchester United 6000 million, Tottenham 4000 million, and Manchester City [-] million. The investment of these four teams alone is close to [-] million.

In addition to the crazy accidents of the major giants in the Premier League, Paris Saint-Germain's investment in Ligue [-] this summer also shocked the world football a little.

In August, Paris Saint-Germain's investment has reached 4000 million euros, which can be called the highest transfer in the summer, and because of the emergence of Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea's investment only ranks second.

No.3 is the team from Russia, Zenit St. Petersburg. The two deals of Hulk and Witsel alone have reached 9000 million euros. From this, we can also see how terrible the Portuguese black shop is.

No.4 is Manchester United, and No.5 is Li Feng's old club. Bayern Munich, which fell again in the Champions League final last season, brought Martinez from Athletic Bilbao at a record price of 4000 million, and then bought Mandzukic from Wolfsburg. This is obviously not good news for Gomez.

In Ibiza, Spain, after two weeks of devil training and physical reserves, the Manchester City players finally recovered the performance that the defending champion should have.

In the following week, Manchester City played friendly matches with two Spanish players, 3:0 and 5:1. Manchester City showed the style of the Champions League champions.

In these two games, several new aids performed very well. Saric made a sharp breakthrough, Sun Xingmin scored a goal in a limited time, not to mention Van Persie, who showed his state with three goals in two games. As for Rodwell, his performance is also remarkable.

Dzeko scored two of the remaining four goals. The arrival of Van Persie still put a lot of pressure on Dzeko, making Bosnia and Herzegovina Diamond start desperately from the friendly match.

Aguero and Yaya Toure scored one each. While the new players performed well, the old players also showed their due level. As for Li Feng, he sent out four assists.

Of course, the two friendly matches don't actually mean much. After all, there is a huge gap between Manchester City and these two teams. Manchester City is the Premier League champion, and their opponents are only regional teams.

But winning is always something to be happy about, and it was a good start, so, with a happy mood, Manchester City returned to Manchester, and then, the last Manchester City player also returned to the team at this time.

However, God may feel that Manchester City is too easy and needs to add some obstacles to their preparations for the new season, so Richards was injured in a tactical confrontation training.

Ankle ligament strain, Richards this injury, completely bid farewell to all games this year, according to reports from the team doctor, Richards needs to rest for at least four months.

What is a house leak that happens to rain overnight, and what is a cascading effect? ​​Richards just went to the team doctor to report that Barry was also injured. You know, Barry was quite healthy last season. He suffered a groin strain. Coupled with his age, Barry will have to rest for at least three months this time.

Subsequently, Manchester City ushered in a new round of friendly opponents, also two games, but compared with the previous ones, Manchester City's performance in these two games was a bit worse and I couldn't bear to gamble.

Although the opponent has been strengthened, there is still a huge gap between the two in terms of strength. The opponent in the first game is **** from Italy.

Last season, **** was only able to relegation, ranking [-]th in the Serie A standings. This summer, they sold several core players such as Palacio, and their strength plummeted.

But under such circumstances, Manchester City played extremely difficult, and even broke the deadlock first. In the first half No. 301 minutes, center Borriello, who was loaned from Roma, blasted away Manchester City's players with a corner kick.

The assist, also on loan, came from Fiorentina midfielder Oliveira, who found Borriello with an unerring corner.

And Manchester City relied on Van Persie's strong shot to equalize the score at the last moment of the second half. The assister was Silva who had just returned to the team. The Spaniard continued his good form in the national team.

Three days later, Manchester City ushered in their fourth friendly match opponent, this time the opponent was stronger than Germany, from Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga.

Compared with the previous championships, Bremen has completely lost the strength of the previous few years after the continuous sale of the core of the team and the departure of the head coach Schaff, and only ranked ninth last season.

But facing Bremen like this, Manchester City lost 0:2 cleanly. Just joined Bremen in the summer, Li Feng's former competitor Elia became the best player in the game. One pass and one shot made him the best player in the game.

Following the two friendly matches, the attitude of the media has changed 180 degrees, criticizing Manchester City wildly, the previous mercury-like offense is gone, the midfield organization is chaotic, and the striker's running position is even more confusing. Often the ball is passed, but no one responds. On the contrary, the striker runs out of space and no one passes the ball.

The reason for this is naturally because Van Basten made adjustments in personnel and tactics. After seeing the continuous injuries of Barry and Richards, Van Basten began to worry.

Worried about what to do if Li Feng was suddenly injured one day, so in the next two friendly matches, Van Basten tried to change his tactics and replaced Li Feng with others.

But obviously, the result was not ideal. In fact, this aspect should have been noticed last season. In the cup match, Van Basten put Li Feng on the bench.

It's just that the Cup is really not affected by Van Basten always, and in terms of personnel, they are basically all substitute players, so the situation is not obvious.

But now, under Van Basten's conscious observation, this phenomenon will be magnified countless times, which is what happened in the previous two games.

The midfielder can't be organized, the striker's movement is completely messed up, Van Persie just joined, it's okay, but Aguero, Silva and Dzeko who have cooperated with Li Feng for a season are very obvious.

At first glance, I thought the three were running around.
