King of the start, I'm the new king of the Azzurri

The game is over, but now there is another problem facing many clubs.

The performance of Manchester City's two wings can be regarded as getting better, and Li Feng in the middle is willing to share the ball. For other teams, their defense is even more difficult.

Regarding Li Feng's defense, this has become a difficult problem for all Premier League clubs.

Take Chelsea's defense as an example, Rudiger and Christensen are not bad, but they still can't stop Li Feng.

This is enough to see how exaggerated Li Feng's physical fitness is. If you only look at the data on the side, then you will not hesitate to think that the player who can hand over such data must be a black player.

But no one would have thought that such data would come from a Chinese.

Although the prediction of Li Feng's season goals this year is still at last year's level, but Li Feng's performance at the beginning of the season has made people realize that this guy may have been "silently" evolving.

When the center forward starts to share the ball, then this can prove that the team will become stronger!
Manchester City is now on such a road!
Although Guardiola was pouring cold water on his team at the post-match press conference, some people were still affected.

Then comes the international break; for those players who have no national team duties, they get ample rest.

For Guardiola, he needs to think about a reasonable arrangement for the starting players who come back from the national team match day, especially his core players in the midfield. After an international match day, these guys need to rest and recuperate.

"Well, this is really a headache!"

Fortunately for Guardiola, no one who went out to participate in the game was injured, so the issue that needs to be considered now is very simple-physical fitness!
However, in the next game, Guardiola's face was not very good. Although Manchester City won a big victory, Guardiola was still dissatisfied with the performance of the players on the court.

When the game was over, Guardiola, who returned to the locker room, looked at the joy on the players' faces, and he was furious in the locker room.

For this reason, the sound of Guardiola angrily denouncing each starter sounded in the locker room.

But there are always exceptions. In order to escape, it is Li Feng and De Bruyne (these two only played for less than 60 minutes).

The performance at this stage makes Guardiola love and hate Sane and Sterling. What he likes is their running positions and good finishing ability. Although they will still lose the chain at critical moments, the players in the league Stable performance can also relieve Li Feng's pressure.

What is more surprising is that the "criticism" meeting after the game was finally obtained by the media first-hand.

This also led to reporters blocking the door of those who were criticized by name in the first place.

"Leroy, do you think the other side is right about the coach's criticism?"

Leroy Sane was the target of Guardiola's criticism after the last game, along with Sterling.

Hearing this, Leroy Sane responded.

"I'm just a player. What I need to do is to implement tactics according to the coach's arrangement. If I don't do well, I will naturally be scolded by the head coach. This is just a trivial matter, and there is nothing to say."

Sane's answer is relatively official, but these reporters do not intend to let him go.

For them, Sane - an "unknown" German, Sterling - a well-known "British Emperor"; if they really want to find problems from them, it is naturally Sane!

Compared with Sane's being picked on, Sterling is touted by many "unscrupulous media" as Manchester City's second shooter.

As for the first shooter?

Then there will be only the "black" and immobile center - Li Feng!
For the players, a 7-1 victory is something to be happy about.

But the problem lies here. When Li Feng and De Bruyne were off the field, the score on the field was 5-0, and Manchester City held the initiative in their hands.

In 30 minutes, the opponent scored a goal. If it is really a fairy ball, then Guardiola may not be so angry.

However, in terms of time, they need to recover as soon as possible, and they still have an upcoming Champions League group match to play.

Li Feng still "likes" the team from Serie A again.

Naples, this is a team that came back from the lower leagues. Judging from the current situation, they will become the spoiler of Serie A.

Judging from the combination of players, their strength is not weak.

When the opponent is replaced by Manchester City from the Premier League, Naples' strength is not so dog-like, but it does not mean that they will definitely lose to Manchester City.

Another point that needs attention is that the current head coach of Naples is Sarri. This head coach who "climbed up" from the lower leagues has coached Li Feng.

I believe he will arrange defense in a targeted manner.

In order to avoid such a situation, during the training after the 1-day vacation, Li Feng was picked up by Guardiola alone for "special training".

"Li, in the next Champions League group match, I hope you can stand up and not be easily crushed by them!"

"."

Hearing this, Li Feng fell silent.

From a personal point of view, he really doesn't know much about the Naples team.

But Li Feng still has some impressions of their two defenders, especially Coulibaly.

The black defender's confrontation ability is not weak, but if he really wants to face the tough, Li Feng believes that he can handle this guy better now.

"."

"Josep, do you think Napoli can take points from the Etihad Stadium?"

Take away points?

Are you not directly asking about winning or losing now?

"We'll do our best to stop the opponent from scoring."

Guardiola didn't say too much. They still need to win this game. Only by winning this game can Manchester City's initiative be firmly held in their hands.

Both sides have the same idea, but Sarri may be more realistic.

"It is reported that Kalidou Koulibaly said that he wants to make Li look good. Do you think this is likely?"

"WHO?"

Guardiola knows the player mentioned by the reporter, no matter what the other party says, Guardiola will stand by his player.

"Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly."

"Sorry, it's not my player, I'm not familiar with it, is he trying to challenge us in the game? If yes, I wish him good luck!"

"."

For Li Feng, Sarri still has a lot of emotion. I think this little guy still had to fight for the starting lineup under his own hands. It has only been a few years, and he has now become one of the best center forwards in the Premier League. I believe The teenager will succeed at Manchester City.

But the final victory of this game, he, Sarri is going to be determined!

"Welcome to the third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage—Manchester City vs. Naples, who is a guest. I am the commentator Yu Miao (Wang Kun)."

"I am very happy to be able to explain this game. From my personal perspective, I think Naples has a high probability of losing this game."

Yu Miao expressed his views clearly before the game.

"From the perspective of paper strength, Manchester City is indeed stronger than Naples, but the game is not based on paper strength. I believe Sarri will give his own answer in this game!"

The two commentators have their own distinct views, whether intentional or not, but they both believe that Manchester City is the one that can win the final game!
"This game is at the Etihad Stadium, and the referee Laos from Spain is in charge of refereeing the game."

"The game has started, and Naples, who are playing away, have the opportunity to attack first."

Compared with the changes in Manchester City, the changes in Naples are relatively small.

"Manchester City is attacking with all the main force. It seems that they are very eager to win the game."

The goalkeeper position is Edson Morais; left back Teo Hernandez, left center back Otamendi, on the other side Stones plays center back, and Kyle Walker sits on the right.

There are three familiar people in the midfield: left midfielder David Silva, delayed Fernandinho, and right midfielder Kevin De Bruyne.

The three in the frontcourt are even more familiar partners, left winger: Sane, center forward: Li Feng, right winger: Sterling.

Not much has changed in position, and it looks like they're recovering well.

"Naples also adopted a 433 formation. For Sarri, he still needs to constantly adjust Naples' defense according to Manchester City's offense."

"Insigne on the left, Mertens on the centre, Callejon on the right;

The left midfielder is played by Hamsik, the late is Amadou Diawara, and the right midfielder is Zelinski;

The defense lined up from left to right: Gulam, Coulibaly, Albiol, Hisai;

The goalkeeper position is Reina, the former Liverpool goalkeeper! "

More players in Naples are young and relatively old. For them, such a matchup may affect their journey in the league.

But there is really hope to compete for the Big Ears Cup, presumably Naples will risk everything.

At this time, Sarri was very rational. He knew very well that such a Naples team only has the strength of the top 16. If luck is better, then it will be the top 8!
But the opponents in the group, apart from Manchester City, other teams really have the ability to turn the table, so they need to be careful.

The ball on the field returned to Hamsik's feet.

Noticing Li Feng's attack, Hamsik retreated to get rid of it, and he distributed the ball to Zelinski. Naples' advance was still targeted.

In the face of pressing, Sarri's requirement is to distribute the ball to the weak side.

At this time, Zelinski, who was advancing with the ball, seized a loophole in Manchester City's frontcourt pressing. He accelerated to get rid of the defense, and the through ball he sent penetrated Manchester City's midfield defense.

Mertens backed the ball, and Insigne, who advanced forward, rubbed the ball without stopping.

The arc of the ball is perfect, but the height is moderate, which may not be able to test the goalkeeper.

Edson Morais stretches his body and he saves the ball perfectly.

Corner for Naples!
Seeing his opponent get such an opportunity, Li Feng still felt envious in his heart. As a striker, he still hopes that he can use more goals to help the team win the game.

The quality of the corner kick was good, and Coulibaly had the upper hand in the fight for the top, which was somewhat beyond Li Feng's expectations.

After thinking about it, it is quite normal for such a situation to occur. After all, while you are making progress, Coulibaly is also taking steps forward.

So in the next time, Li Feng will have many opportunities to directly touch each other.

Manchester City's goal kick, this is an excellent opportunity for Manchester City to counterattack.

Edson Morais kicked out without any hesitation. This choice made the Naples players grit their teeth and chase them back.

Li Feng, who was in the frontcourt, looked back and observed the ball's landing point on the way forward.

It made him feel uncomfortable. Edson Morais' big foot is a bit strong. If he wants to grab this position, Li Feng needs to "touch" Albiol directly.

Accelerating forward, Li Feng turned around and stuck in the position. Li Feng, whose "chassis" was solid enough, naturally grabbed the ball's landing point.

Unloading the ball, when Li Feng just wanted to do it back, he noticed the opponent behind De Bruyne. He didn't pass back, and with a fake move of sinking his shoulders, Li Feng tricked Albiol.

The rhythm of turning around and dribbling the ball is very good. Li Feng turned around and dribbled the ball in big strides.

The rest of the Napoli defense noticed this and increased their speed a bit.

Li Feng keenly noticed the situation of Naples returning to defense, and then adjusted the pace of his feet.

"Still adjusting, Li Feng shoots low!"

"Reina fell to the ground very fast, he blocked the ball out of the goal, Manchester City still have a chance!"

"It's a pity that the ball was cleared."

The speed at which Reina fell to the ground was somewhat beyond the commentator's expectations. In their opinion, Reina's reaction should not be so fast as he was getting older.

But the actual situation is not the case!

The game continues.

Naples' advancement is very "stable", obviously Sarri made a special arrangement before the game.

In Sarri's view, this is an away game. His bottom line is that he can accept a loss, but he can't accept a big loss. He doesn't think Naples is weaker than Manchester City.

Although the team is mostly veterans, their rich experience allows them to make the right choice at the right time.

Napoli's attack shifted to the wing, and Callejon's drop back showed that they wanted to attack Manchester City's left defense.

Theo Hernandez has once again become the target of the opponent's roll call, which is also normal. After all, as the youngest one in Manchester City's starting lineup, he "should" be considered the weakest link.

Is this really the case?

Obviously something is wrong.

The first time Callejon turned and advanced, he was directly destroyed by Theo Hernandez and went out of bounds.

Naples' attack was temporarily interrupted.

By the time they started preparing for the throw-in, City's players had fallen back into place, forcing Napoli to start organizing again.

Since he was dragged into a positional battle, he could only pin his hopes on the players in the team competing for the header!
There are such players in the starting lineups of both sides, so let's see who can seize this opportunity!

Naples arranged for Callejon to drive this sideline kick.

When he throws the ball, Naples' offense is coming!
