The two brothers Anelka made the same judgment on the game, but the actual situation was quite different from what they imagined. After Darren Bent came on the court, Manchester City was much more stable than they had just performed, and they quickly used the ball to stabilize the situation.

After Anelka left the court, there was no 'time bomb' in the frontcourt, and the team played according to the tactics.

They kept passing and receiving the ball, playing around David Silva as the core point.

Wan Sheng said it clearly before the game. David Silva and Morris's partner, Silva's position must be based on the premise. Everyone understands what this means, that is, let Morris play the midfielder and Silva play the central defender. In other words, most offenses will be centered on Silva, and he has also become a player who organizes the offense.

Before Darren Bent came on the court, Anelka was the most shining in the frontcourt. He got the ball a lot, his feet were very dazzling, and he could attract a lot of attention. In this way, Silva and others who passed the ball to him became very inconspicuous, just like Anelka was the only one in the frontcourt.

It's different now. Without Anelka, Silva's role is highlighted.

Anelka still made great contributions to the court. In addition to that goal, he also helped Silva attract "firepower". Silva was still a little nervous when he appeared as a central defender. However, in previous games, including Arsenal's defense, everyone was paying attention to Anelka, and no one cared about his performance at all. As time passed, Silva gradually adapted.

Now he is not nervous, and he feels that playing the core is nothing. As long as he plays seriously, it is still easy to pass.

David Silva's evaluation of himself is a bit low. He is not only qualified. He has great talent in passing. In the football training master system, the passing attribute evaluation reaches 93 points, even surpassing Lee Morris. If he can be rated so highly by the football training master system, his passing ability is naturally very outstanding.

As Manchester City performs normally in front and back courts, David Silva's role is also highlighted. He gets more balls, so his personal ability performance is much more dazzling.

At the same time, his outstanding passing ability is also highlighted.

Ten minutes after Darren Bent played, David Silva completed a wonderful straight pass. He accurately passed the ball from the left corner of the penalty area to the right side of the goal. This distance was a bit far away, and the pass was quite accurate. Darren Bent inserted and ran to the position. He found a good opportunity to shoot.

Darren Bente held back his excitement, and he snatched the ball forward in front of Toure!

Football flew into the goal from Arsenal goalkeeper Lehman!

The entire Highbury Stadium was quiet for a moment because of the goal, and then the commentator began to exclaim frantically, "Darren Bent! Darren Bent!"

George Woodgate was surprised at the speed of Manchester City's equalization, and was also surprised at the goal that tied the score was scored by Darren Bent, "The ball has entered! goooooooal!"

"He just played ten minutes ago and helped Manchester City equalize the score!"

"His performance was really amazing. No one noticed him before, but when the football arrived in front of the goal, he appeared directly and sent the ball into the goal before Toure! Arsenal goalkeeper Lehman had no choice but to do anything about it!"

"But this goal is more thanks to David Silva who passed the ball. This Spanish young player who joined Manchester City in the summer has also played in previous games, but he has always been a full-time forward. His position has changed to a central defender in this game. We can see on the court that he is a bit ahead of Morris, which shows that Wan Sheng attaches importance to him. Now it seems that he has not disappointed. This assist can show a lot of things..."

After scoring the goal, Darren Bent directly rushed towards David Silva, thanking him for his wonderful assist.

Both of them hugged each other excitedly.

Wan Sheng also walked to the sidelines to watch the scene, then slapped his hands a few times, and the camera captured that his face was smiling.

"It seems that Wansheng is very satisfied with Silva and Darren Bent's performance." George Woodgate commented.

At the same time, Manchester City bench was also celebrating, and everyone cheered.

Perhaps, the only bad face is Anelka. He thought that after he got out of the field, the team would not have any chance. In less than ten minutes, the team completed the equalization goal, especially the goal was Darren Bent, who replaced him. Doesn't this mean that this second-tier kid is enough to replace him when he is on the court?

...

No matter what Anelka thinks, Wan Sheng is actually not surprised by the goal.

The biggest contributor to this goal was David Silva, but in fact, the biggest reason should be attributed to tactics.

The entire goal process was almost in tactical format, at least before David Silva completed the wonderful pass. The football was passing according to tactical routines, followed by David Silva running out of the open position in the penalty area. He got a chance in the corner of the penalty area. This position was not very good, but it was quite good to find opportunities in this position by passing and running. It was precisely because of a good position and no one could defend at the first time that David Silva could pass a wonderful pass and Darren Bent had an excellent shooting opportunity.

Of course, on the field, the tactics still need to be played by the players, otherwise no matter how good the tactics are, they will be talked about on paper, so David Silva and Darren Bent are still the biggest contributors.

Wan Sheng was not surprised by the goal, but he was also very satisfied with the performance of the two.

The abilities of the two, especially Darren Bent's ability, are also the reason why he did not hesitate to replace Anelka. With tactics and teammates' support, as long as the forward players keep up, they will always get good opportunities. Anelka is stronger, but if he doesn't perform well, it will drag down the entire team. Darren Bent is worse than Anelka, but on the court, his performance may not be much worse. If it weren't for Darren Bent's experience in the top league, it would be not easy for Anelka to occupy an absolute main position.

At the same time, many commentators also praised the previous substitutions because of the goals.

"This goal proves that Wan Sheng's substitution is correct. After Darren Bent came on the court, Manchester City's performance became much more stable. Their offense became smoother and also withstood Arsenal's suppression. Now there is another goal, tying the score. It seems that Anelka should take a good look at the bench. How Darren Bent plays..."

Anelka was indeed watching on the bench, but he was not thinking about how Darren Bent plays. Instead, he thought that even if this "second-tier boy" scored a goal, he was far from his own, because he also scored a goal, and that goal was scored by his own ability.

What about this goal just now?

That was David Silva's pass!

This 'Second League boy' is almost equivalent to pushing an empty goal, and there is no technical content at all!

"What's the big deal?"

A sense of disdain climbed onto Anelka's cheek.

When other teammates rushed out of the bench to celebrate, he was still moving, his face was not very good-looking, just as if the opponent scored the goal.

...

Anelka's elder brother Claude was still talking to Eric Manasther in the box about his brother's excellence.

"That boy is called Darren Bent? How could he replace Nicholas!"

He said disdainfully.

But the next moment, he saw Darren Bent running to the goal and kicking the ball into the goal. He suddenly became a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Eric Manasther frowned and glanced at Claude.

He felt a little funny, but he couldn't laugh.

He has been partnering with Cloud for a long time, and Cloud is also capable. His only disadvantage is that he likes money too much and "trusts" his younger brother too much. The trust has reached an incredible level. It can even be said that he believes that his younger brother is the top star in history. This description is not an exaggeration.

So it was not surprising to hear Claude sarcastically mock Darren Bent and touting his younger brother.

Now seeing Darren Bent scored, he felt a little crisis.

He previously thought that Claude's proposal could be considered. As long as Anelka performs well enough, Manchester City clubs will definitely attach great importance to him. As long as they talk, Manchester City will definitely agree to the salary increase requirement.

But according to the current situation, Anelka does not seem to be the only choice in the frontcourt. Darren Bent's performance is not much worse than him, and it will be difficult to get a raise.

...

After Darren Bent helped the team equalize the score, Manchester City's morale boosted. The more they played, the better they were. On the other hand, Arsenal was disrupted by this goal.

They thought they were sure to win, but they were quickly equalized.

This is different from what I imagined.

Now they can't play an advantage on the court, so they are a little anxious, so they have some problems with their front and back court connections. As one goes up and down, Manchester City has gained the upper hand for a while after the game starts again.

After several consecutive waves of offense and defense, Arsenal felt tired of being run away.

Arsenal fans who had been shouting to cheer for the team before were a little silent. They began to worry about the situation on the field, while the few Manchester City fans were full of fighting spirit. They pulled their throats and shouted to cheer for the players on the field.

But for a long time, the score on the field was not rewritten. Although Arsenal was at a disadvantage, their defense was still very tight, and it was not easy for Manchester City to find opportunities.

At this moment, the commentator suddenly exclaimed, "Cross it!"

This sudden shout made people frightened. Looking at the TV screen, the football had already flown to the left of the goal in the air. Suddenly, a white figure broke out in the penalty area. He jumped high and pushed the ball into the goal with his head.

"The ball... is scored! The ball is scored!"

It was not until this time that the commentator made a second voice. After a closer look, he realized that the shot was Darren Bent, who had just completed the goal, and the long-distance pass just now came from the feet of the midfielder Morris.

“goooooooooooooooooooooooool!!!”

"It's Darren Bent again!"

"Scoring twice! He scored his second goal after he came on the bench! At the last moment, he helped Manchester City overtake the score! Did he want Manchester City to take away the victory at Highbury Stadium?"

"Let's see the slow motion..."

"It's Morris! He completed an excellent long pass in the middle line! This pass was very accurate and went straight to the goal. Darren Bent made a very timely attack. It was hard to imagine that the two of them had such a tacit understanding. Arsenal was completely caught off guard!"

"3:2, Manchester City overtakes the score!"

"There is not much time for the game now, and Arsenal is a bit dangerous..."

Amid the commentator's shouts, all Manchester City people shared the joy of scoring the goal together.

On the field, Darren Bent also ran around the field and frantically. He hugged everyone when he saw it, and finally fell to his knees on the grass, smashing the grass with both fists.

Wan Sheng stood on the sidelines, stomped his feet hard, swung his fist hard, and shouted at Darren Bente, "It's done...beautiful!"

He thought it would be good to equalize the score before, but he didn't expect Darren Bent to score the second goal!

This was a bit unexpected, but it was an unexpected surprise!

At this time of the game, overtaking the score is easy to be equivalent to winning. If you can defeat Arsenal in this game, the team's competition in the league will become very favorable. They will pull down Arsenal and Manchester United in the standings and consolidate the second-ranked league ranking. The next competitor will only have Chelsea.

Points may not be the most important thing.

In this game, we can see that David Silva and Darren Bent have made great progress. They have gained valuable experience in the game, which may help them grow up quickly. As long as these two geniuses grow, the team's forward and midfield will become very strong, which is the most important thing.

...

In the end, with two goals from Darren Bent, Manchester City defeated Arsenal 3-2 at Highbury Stadium, winning another league victory and winning a very valuable three-pointer.

At the post-match press conference, Wan Sheng did not respond to the topic of Anelka raised by the reporters, but only praised Morris and Darren Bent, and also specifically mentioned the last goal. "Lee is a very outstanding player. I have always admired him. He is an all-round midfielder. I need him to play as a midfielder to strengthen the defense in this game, but he can still play a key role in the offense!"

"That was a wonderful pass, which was not tactical, and he did it. But I wasn't surprised because he always played a key role in the game."

Next he talked about Darren Bent, "He scored two goals and did a pretty good job. He has scored five goals in the league. You think he is in good shape, but I think it will be very common for him in the future."

"It is precisely because of his excellence that I brought him to the team."

After praising the players' performance, Wan Sheng finally mentioned the results of the game and said, "This is a very critical victory, a key three-pointer!"

"I didn't want to say anything more before I got this three-pointer, but now, I dare say we are qualified enough to enter the championship ranks!"

"Yes, I'm sure!" (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
