Chapter 501 The Battle Begins

(If you don’t have a monthly pass, it’s good to order a recommendation ticket)
With the closure of the transfer market, various clubs have also begun to shift their attention to the next game, and the Premier League has also begun to usher in a busy schedule.

In September, the English League Cup will start. In England, there are as many as two domestic cups, one is the English League Cup and the other is the English FA Cup. In addition to these two domestic cups, the top players in the standings also need to participate in the Champions Cup and the UEFA Cup.

This time, Manchester City's luck was not bad. No players were seriously injured when they returned from the national team. Of course, there must be minor injuries. Dzeko returned with a minor injury, and Barry needed to rest for a week.

It will take another month for De Jong to return, and the only options left for Van Basten are Miner and Hargreaves. However, the latter has been injured for three years, and Hargreaves will definitely not be selected when there are other options.

If you want to say who is the worst in Manchester City this season, it must be Minaer. As Li Feng's substitute, unless there is an injury or a red or yellow card, it will be difficult for Minaur to get a chance to play, of course, except for the unimportant cup games.

Even though the Premier League is known as the most competitive league in the world, with Li Feng's abnormal physique, this level of motivation is nothing at all, and there is absolutely no chance of physical problems in a week of double matches.

This time Barry's injury finally gave Minaer a rare chance to start. At the same time, Carlos Tevez also ushered in the start of the season.

In addition, there is a long-lost figure in Manchester City's substitute lineup. Kolo Toure, who was suspended for half a year after a drug ban, finally returned, and Van Basten plans to put him on the bench.

On the afternoon of September 9th, Manchester City ushered in the second home game of the season, and the Etihad players ushered in the challenge of Wigan Athletic.

At present, the team is in a good state of three consecutive victories. After three rounds of the league, only two teams in the entire Premier League have maintained a complete victory. Manchester City is one of them, and the other is the rival Manchester United.

Amidst the cheers of Manchester City fans, the players of the two teams officially debuted.

Manchester City lineup: 433
Goalkeeper: Joe Hart
Defenders: Clichy, Kompany, Boateng, Richards
Midfielders: Minar, Yaya Toure, Li Feng
Forwards: Silva, Tevez, Aguero
This game is also captain Kompany's Premier League game, so before the game, everyone discussed it and gave Kompany a perfect 1-game commemoration.

Wigan Athletic squad: 433
Goalkeeper: Habsi
Defenders: Figueroa, Piscu, Caldwell, Boyce
Midfielders: Diame, Ben Watson, MacArthur

Forwards: Moses, De Santo, Rodariega

Wigan Athletic's main threat comes from the two wingers Moses and Rodariega. In order to suppress these two, Van Basten sent Richards and Clichy directly.

Now that it has been agreed to give Kompany a perfect [-]-game commemoration, then the Manchester City players will naturally do what they say, not to mention that the head coach is still a Dutchman, and the opponent is not strong.

So Van Basten's strategy is to start a strong attack. Li Feng holds the ball in the middle and looks at the three players in the middle opposite Wigan Athletic. The midfielder of Wigan Athletic is somewhat similar to Manchester City.

Wigan Athletic's head coach Martinez is a relatively different existence in the Premier League. No matter what the team's situation is, he always insists on playing with the Latin style of passing and controlling.

Although this style of play is very entertaining, it is difficult to achieve good results with this style of play in a small club like Wigan Athletic. Therefore, Martinez is also dubbed the "relegation maniac" by the media. Almost every season, his team needs to relegation.

The three midfielders all have good skills and ability to play the ball, and also have a certain defensive ability. It can be said that Wigan Athletic's midfielders are all of this type of player, which is why Martinez can play pass control.

Although the three of them had certain defensive capabilities, Li Feng didn't think they could stop him, so he rushed over with the ball.

Controlling the ball and changing direction, Li Feng directly passed MacArthur, who was the first to rush up, and then made a Marseille roundabout to bypass Ben Watson. Among the three midfielders, only Diame was left at the end.

Diame is a Frenchman of African descent, but because he has not been able to advance to the French national team, he chose to change his Senegalese nationality this summer. Although he is not typical black and hard, his physical fitness is quite good. Some media even said that Diame is a weakened version of Yaya Toure.

"Oh~~~ Beautiful, played three players in a row, but the methods used are all different. Feng is showing his comprehensiveness, excellent ball control, unparalleled skills, and extremely abnormal body and strength. Feng has crushed the three midfielders of Wigan Athletic by himself." When Li Feng used his body to forcefully squeeze Diame away, the entire Etihad Stadium was boiling.

Unfortunately, Li Feng and Carlos Tevez, who cooperated for the first time in an official game, did not have a good start. After passing the three of them, Li Feng was able to face Wigan Athletic's restricted area.

At this time, Piscu had to leave the penalty area. Seeing this situation, Li Feng gently pushed the outside of his left foot and sent the ball directly into the Wigan Athletic penalty area.

However, Tevez did not appear in front of the ball as everyone expected. It turned out that when Piscu rushed towards Li Feng, Tevez actually followed and retreated.

"A tacit understanding~~~ It's still a tacit understanding. Obviously, Tevez didn't expect Feng to pass the ball. He thought that Li Feng would choose to come by himself, so Tevez retreated and pulled Caldwell out of the penalty area to create enough space for Feng. But at this moment, Feng pushed the ball into the penalty area."

At this time, it was too late for Tevez to turn around. Caldwell was firmly in the main position, and Habusi rushed out quickly and easily held the ball.

Seeing this situation, Li Feng and Tevez spread their hands and looked at each other at the same time. In fact, their thoughts were very similar. Neither of them had that kind of selfish personality, so they both wanted to help each other make wedding dresses, but this turned out to be the case.

"Dude~~~ From now on, just do what you want, trust me, I will make the best judgment according to the situation." After looking at each other with a smile, Li Feng said proactively.

"OK~~~" After listening to Li Feng's words, Tevez nodded.

For Tevez, Li Feng is also quite curious. You must know that Manchester City now has two weirdos in the team, one is Balotelli and the other is Tevez.

After getting along with each other for a period of time, Li Feng discovered that this Argentine beast is indeed somewhat withdrawn and introverted, not good at communicating with others. Most of the time, he is always alone. In almost the entire team, Aguero is probably the only one who can be called a friend with him. This is because both of them are Argentine.
