96. First defeat

Wigan's head coach is still Martinez, who is also a young rookie coach who has emerged in the Premier League in recent years, and has been recognized by public opinion and media commentators.

Of course, it is not as loud as Rogers and Wensheng. Rogers's loudness is because his tactics in Swansea are known as Barcelona, ​​while Wensheng is because he is the champion coach and can always lead the team to win the championship.

Martinez is famous because of his changing tactics and is more suitable for relegation teams. Because of this, the slightly stronger teams are still hesitant about him, just like when Tottenham is in the summer, Martinez is not considered at all.

With Wigan's current strength, their performance at the start of the season in more than ten rounds is also good. They have also scored 14 points. If they can maintain this state, they will have a high possibility of relegation this season.

But facing Manchester City, a team that is several levels higher than them, it is useless to let Martinez play tricks and putting a bus at the door. 0:3, Aguero, Aspas and Milner each scored a goal.

Martinez did have a bus in this game. He also knew that playing against Manchester City is seeking death, so he wanted to rely on defense. Even if it was a point from Manchester City, it would be good. However, their defense has never been reliable. He has lost 23 goals in the previous thirteen rounds. Do you still expect this game to appear suddenly?!

Wensheng didn't think Manchester City played well in this game, and the pass mistakes set a new high. Wigan was not good at it and failed to make good use of those opportunities. Martinez was also a little conservative and did not invest too much force in the offense.

"We made too many passes and make mistakes! It's so much that I can't believe it. We rely on not strength but luck to win this game!" Wen Sheng criticized the team's performance without any hesitation.

The game ended with Manchester City's victory, which also led to Wensheng's best coach in October. Player of the Month was won by Van Persie, who was in the same city's rival Manchester United. Van Persie was in a very popular state.

Wen Sheng remembered a teasing saying in his previous life that Van Persie made a transfer to Manchester United, "I originally went to Manchester United to win the championship, but I didn't expect to go to Manchester United to be the thigh!"

Manchester United can still follow Manchester City, which has a lot to do with Van Persie's ability to score goals. Rooney has not performed very well so far this season.

The game against Wigan ends and December is approaching. Manchester City will not be easy in the next two rounds. First, they have to deal with Everton. Everton has been in the middle and upper reaches for a long time. In the early years, they were a strong contender for the top four seats. In the past two years, as the level of the Premier League team has improved, Everton's prospects for the four are not so wonderful.

However, this team has been in charge for many years, and the team is still quite combat-effective. In general, they are a bit similar to "not strong when they meet strong or weak when they meet weak". They have not yet ended up clearly below the face of Arsenal, Liverpool and others. When they meet weaker teams, they seem to have a hard time playing every time.

After playing against Everton, Manchester City will welcome their city rivals Manchester United at home.

There is not much difference in points between Manchester United and Manchester City, and the contest between the two will be a six-point match. Manchester United has not encountered any trouble recently, and Wensheng is very afraid of them.

It was similar to what Wensheng thought, and Ferguson was also quite afraid of Manchester City. Under Wensheng's leadership, Manchester City created the best first fourteen rounds in history, winning twelve games and drawing two games, without a single loss. Such a result is too amazing.

The Champions League has qualified, and the media has now made Manchester City furious. Is this record going to chase Arsenal's unbeaten season record?!

"I don't think we can reach that level!" Wen Sheng poured cold water on everyone at the pre-match press conference against Everton. "I think that kind of record is hard to come by, and we don't need to be obsessed with it. I hope everyone on the team can work hard to play every game!"

"People will only remember who is the first, not the second. If we just pursue invincibility, it has no practical significance, and the championship is the goal we pursue!" Wensheng now announced Manchester City's goal more directly.

Perhaps in order to confirm the accuracy of his prediction, Manchester City really lost in this game against Everton on the afternoon of December 1, losing 0:1 to Everton, winning the first defeat of the season. Wensheng led Manchester City to abruptly ended in Game 22.

When Wen Sheng played against Wigan in the last game, he felt that the team's condition had declined to a certain extent. In fact, Manchester City performed better than the previous game, but Everton's defense was not as bad as Wigan, and the players' abilities were much stronger. In addition, Manchester City has been very tired and injured recently, and young players such as Wan Yama and Dembele have been playing continuously.

"I'm not a prophet! This is Etihad Stadium, we should do a little better. I can understand that the team is tired now, but I really don't want to make excuses for this loss. I have the responsibility, and the players have the responsibility! Congratulations to Everton, they played a good game!" Wensheng hated that reporters thought he predicted the result.

Captain Kompani's opinion was consistent with Wensheng in an interview. He believed that the team was very tired and could not get into the state for a long time.

This statement is not without reason. Manchester City's team has been reduced a lot compared to last season. Wen Sheng has always advocated elite soldiers. As a result, players such as Silva and Toure were injured continuously. One Richards is equal to nothing. It is a miracle that three central defenders have played until now.

So the reporters had to agree with this statement and asked Wensheng whether he was strengthening in the winter window. Wensheng's answer was yes, "We will do some operations in the winter window. If there is a chance to improve the team, I will not refuse!"

Wensheng already had a preliminary idea. Richards planned to loan him out and then introduce two defenders, a central defender and a defender who can play on the right side. In addition, Wensheng also planned to buy Liverpool's Sterling or Crystal Palace's Zaha.

Injury is difficult to predict. The injury of Silva and Toure taught Wensheng a lesson and gave him a sense of crisis. He does advocate elite soldiers but is definitely not young soldiers. Sterling and Zaha can enrich the team's tactical playing style in the frontcourt. The two young players have similar characteristics, both of which are amazing speed and excellent dribbling. There are no existing personnel who can reach their level, and Mane has not yet reached their level.

The first choice for winger position is Zaha. Zaha was promoted by Wensheng himself and knew him well. He did not reach the level of Sterling in his previous life, but he was an acquaintance, so it was easier to train than Sterling.
