Chapter 580 The Invisible Domestic Cup Competition

Red and yellow cards in the Premier League are inseparable from cup matches. This time Balotelli was lucky, because Manchester City just ushered in the quarter-finals of the League Cup. As for the opponent, it happened to be Arsenal, the target of Manchester City's [-]-game winning streak.

However, Arsenal has never paid much attention to the cup, and even the level of indifference can lead the entire Premier League. Arsenal is the world of young players, and the cup is specially used by Wenger for training.

In this regard, Wenger was often ridiculed, but no matter how the outside world is, the professor is unmoved, what should be done or what should be done, there will be no less young players who should play.

The League Cup is also a rare rest time for Manchester City's main players. Van Basten also doesn't care about domestic cup games, but compared to Wenger who used it to train young people, Van Basten used it to keep the substitutes in shape.

At eight o'clock in the evening on the last day of November, Van Basten showed up at Arsenal's home stadium, the Emirates Stadium, on time with a group of players. Before the league, the two sides need to find out in the cup.

But it is a pity that the head coaches of both sides did it thoroughly. Wenger sent a pure young lineup, and even did not have a few main players on the bench.

Van Basten was fine. Although the pure substitute lineup was ruled out, Manchester City's substitute lineup was also quite strong. In the end, the two sides battled for 10 minutes. Relying on the goals of Adam Johnson and Minaur, they defeated Arsenal 2-0 in the away game and entered the League Cup semi-finals firmly.

The other three teams entering the semi-finals are Liverpool, Crystal Palace, Cardiff City, exactly two Premier League teams and two English Championship teams. Even the draw is even more interesting.

And as the League Cup draws to a close, the FA Cup is on the agenda. I don’t know if it’s because of Manchester City’s success in the league and the Champions League this season. Among dozens of teams in the third round of the FA Cup, Manchester City can actually draw their rivals Manchester United. This probability is also speechless.

What makes people even more speechless is that the guest of the lottery is a player from China. Li Tie, a midfielder who once played for Everton in the Premier League, could have become the most successful overseas player in China, but he was finally knocked down by injuries.

In addition to Li Tie, Sun Jihai was the No.1 Chinese study abroad before Li Feng appeared, and he still played for Manchester City, but Manchester City at that time was not comparable to Manchester City now.

After the local tyrants took over, Sun Jihai's strength obviously couldn't keep up with the development of the team. Coupled with the increase in age, Sun Jihai finally left Manchester City and returned to China for retirement in 10 years.

After Li Feng finally made the decision to transfer to Manchester City, Sun Jihai also called Li Feng. As a veteran who had lived in Manchester for 6 years, Sun Jihai told Li Feng many things about life.

As for the other domestic bigwig who had stayed abroad in the Premier League, the two basically had no contact with each other. Even if Li Feng briefly appeared in the national team, the two had no contact with each other.

But now that this is the case, Manchester City has nothing to worry about. Anyway, they already won the FA Cup last season. Even if they lose, it’s okay, and this will allow Manchester City to focus more on the league and the Champions League.

The time has entered December, and the first half of the Premier League season is finally coming to an end. Among the remaining four league opponents of Manchester City, they still need to face Chelsea and Arsenal.

Although Manchester City has just won a victory at the Emirates Stadium, everyone knows that this game cannot be taken seriously. When they meet Wenger and his Gunners next time, Manchester City will be the strongest lineup of the Gunners.

However, before facing the Gunners, Manchester City needs to go to London again. They need to compete with Arsenal's rivals in the same city and Chelsea, another rival of Manchester City's championship. Of course, even Chelsea is in the No.15 league round.

As for Manchester City's opponent in the No.14 round is Canary Norwich, Norwich is currently performing very well, ranking tenth in the Premier League. Before this season, this Canary has been in a cage, but in the past two years, the Canary has a little bit of meaning to come out of the cage. It has achieved two consecutive jumps in two years, and has risen from the League One to the Premier League.

As a newly promoted horse, Norwich's performance is still amazing, but for Manchester City, Norwich is difficult to pose any threat to the thriving Manchester City, especially after the Manchester City players realize the problem.

With the end of the match with Arsenal, the Manchester City players returned to Manchester immediately. Van Basten gave the players a day's vacation to combine work and rest. As long as time permits, Van Basten will never be stingy with vacations.

During this period of time, after sending the text message that day, Li Feng did not look for Yuner again, but Li Feng still had some understanding of the situation when he was young, after all, Jin Chengen had always been by their side, and they had no intention of chasing her away.

Judging from the feedback from Jin Chengen, Yuner seemed to let go of her doubts about the members after receiving Li Feng's text message, but obviously, once some things appeared, it was not so easy to eliminate, but Li Feng also seemed a little helpless about it.

He is ready, and this day is not far away, as November ends, Girls' Generation's song making in Korea is coming to an end.

Next, they will usher in a small holiday, and then start to prepare for the upcoming major awards ceremonies. After all, it is the end of the year, and they will start to divide the cake, plus various song battles. Now that Girls' Generation is so popular, it is natural that they are indispensable.

So taking advantage of this holiday, Li Feng directly invited all of them to Manchester. For this reason, Li Feng had already booked a special plane.

Whether you care about it or not, time is always lost forever. On December 12, England time, Manchester City ushered in their No.3 opponent at home.

In this game, Van Basten did not have any secrets, and played his best. Although there is still a Champions League to be played in the middle of the week, for Manchester City, which has already qualified for the group, the Champions League in the middle of the week is actually not very important. The same is true for Bayern Munich.

But it is not the pure main player this season. Boateng suffered minor injuries during training and had to rest again. This time Van Basten chose Kolo Touré. This is also the first start of the Ivorian central defender in the league this season.

The trio of midfielder De Jong, Yaya Toure and Li Feng has not changed. Dzeko has returned to the starting lineup, with Silva and Aguero on both sides.
