Chapter 291 Winning After Success
After the UEFA Champions League draw, there will be UEFA's player of the season award ceremony.

The trophy is in the style of a jersey.

As expected, it was still Wang Yi.

This is the second time Wang Yi has won this award.

Wang Yi wasn't surprised at all either, after all, who else is better than me.

Wang Yi gave a brief speech.

Then stepped down.

The status of this award in his heart is definitely not as good as the Golden Globe.

Then there is another league game before the Champions League group stage, which is an away game against West Ham United.

West Ham United actually performed well this season, so Guardiola also attaches great importance to it.

However, in this game, Manchester City won 3-0 simply and neatly.

Wang Yi continued to score 1 goal, while Kane scored twice.

Wang Yi has scored 4 goals in 10 league games.

Next up is the Champions League group match against Porto.

The group stage was uneventful, and there was a player Wang Yi was very familiar with—Pepe, what would you say to Monk when he was a Real Madrid fan? You can say that he admired his defense very much. , As for the brain convulsions, forget it.

But Pepe, who has evolved into a holy monk, performed very well in this field. Wang Yi was able to break through with him, but it was very difficult to be entangled immediately, and finally succeeded in breaking through from the other end.

Wang Yi completed a hat-trick, and he also exchanged jerseys with Pepe after the game.

Returning to the league is the weak team Sheffield United. This season is basically a double match every week, so Guardiola still made personnel adjustments.

However, there is another special point this time, that is, Cancelo kicked the midfielder.

As soon as the starting list and standings were released, extensive discussions among the public were introduced.

"Does Guardiola really think that everyone is Kimmich and Lahm?"

"Does Guardiola like changing positions so much?"

But the performance in the game shattered the prejudice of many people.

Cancelo performed well both offensively and defensively in the game. He can go up and down, steals accurately, and passes the ball very efficiently.

In the end, Manchester City beat their opponents 4-0 away.

Wang Yi scored twice, Foden scored a goal, and Kane killed the game.

But Guardiola also told his coaching team after the game.

"Cancello is very good, but against strong teams, especially in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, we still can't let him play as a defensive midfielder for the time being. When facing weak teams, the pressure is not so strong. Cancelo can go up and down, and assists. It is also a very good characteristic that can be fully utilized, and his precise interception is also very good, but when playing against those strong teams, his coverage is still not large enough. After all, this is related to him playing as a full-back, and there are more full-backs. It's still straight up and down, and the left and right coverage is still a lot worse."

Guardiola is still very clear. At this stage, it is still necessary to use Cancelo to play the midfielder cautiously. However, Cancelo's attributes of the backcourt panacea are really good. He can play left and right, and he can also play the midfielder.

Manchester City then traveled to France to challenge Marseille.

Wang Yi staged a hat-trick and beat his opponent 3-0.

It was also in this game that Wang Yi scored his 61st Champions League goal.

He also became the youngest player to score 60 goals in the Champions League, and the fastest player to reach 60 goals in the Champions League.

He is also No.5 in the Champions League goals of active players.

In front of him are Ronaldo, Messi, Benzema, Lewandowski and then him.

It can be said that such a performance is simply miraculous.

And the next round of the league will be against Liverpool.
However, the current Liverpool team does not have many generals, so for Manchester City, this game is much easier than before.

After the whole game, although Liverpool withstood Manchester City's offense at the beginning, but after a long time, the impact of losing the two starting central defenders was still too great, which directly led to the collapse of the defense.

The starting central defender Phillips in this game can be said to have been blown out by Kane, and Wang Yi then rushed to him. In less than 30 minutes, he had already conceded 2 goals directly.

But Klopp on the sidelines was also very helpless, there was no one.

In the end, Liverpool still held on and did not allow more goals to be conceded.

But even so, they lost 0 to 4 away to Manchester City, which is the biggest loss they have lost since the confrontation between Liverpool and Manchester City in recent years.

But Guardiola also knows that this score has no reference, after all, Liverpool is really miserable.

In this game, Wang Yi scored twice, and Kane also scored twice.

In the UEFA Champions League group stage after this game, Wang Yi failed to score, but Manchester City beat their opponent 4-0.

However, after this UEFA Champions League group match, it's time for the national team match day, and Wang Yi has no task for the national team match.

Wang Yi thinks it is outrageous that Europe still holds national team match days now, and what is even more outrageous than before is that in the past, national team match days consisted of two games in two weeks. In fact, most of the players were fine, but now it is two weeks There are 2 games to be played in time, and it’s fine if you say you want to play the qualifiers or something to catch up with the progress, but there is a fixed friendly match in the 3 games.

Isn't this bullshit?Although those big-name friendly matches don't have to be played, but they still have to go, it's exhausting.

very tired.

Moreover, the national team match day is a hotbed of the epidemic. After the previous national team match day, almost every player who returned to the club was infected with the new crown. Although these players can receive timely treatment, they are rich after all. Class will not cause too many problems, but the sequelae still have a lot of influence, just like Maldini, although he retired, but he also said that although he was cured of the new crown, his physical fitness It is already an irreversible decline, and for active players, it must not be the best, and maybe there will be sequelae of one kind or another.

And another big impact is to be quarantined for 14 days and not to play games for 2 weeks.

If the test is still positive at that time, the quarantine will continue for 14 days. Fabinho on the Liverpool side has been quarantined for two weeks, so he did not play against Manchester City.

And while Guardiola was praying, the national team match day was over.

And the unfortunate thing happened.

Both Kane and Foden were infected with the new crown, and Walker and Sterling, both of the England team, were also close contacts and entered isolation together. Therefore, the four generals will not be able to play games for two weeks. This impact is not insignificant.

Kane is now the No. [-] scorer and No. [-] man in the Manchester City team, but now he is like this.

At this time, there was bad news again. Someone in the Ukrainian team who played a Europa League game against Portugal was infected with the new crown, and he also started the UEFA Europa League game against Portugal and played the full 90 minutes. Still a left winger, Cancelo happened to be facing up, and he also played against Ruben Dias a lot.

Well, although the two are currently positive, they were in close contact and entered isolation together.

In this way, 6 members of Manchester City's first team entered isolation, and a big crisis came.
