Chapter 380 A coup

In the box at Wembley Stadium, Manchester City chairman Abalak looked very unhappy.

The Mansour Group invested over a billion pounds.

After spending all this money, there is not even a drop of water left.

Manchester City
Five seasons in a row.

No harvest! !
Yes.

If Manchester City cannot win this FA Cup semi-final.

Then they have to accept this: after spending more than one billion, they didn't win a single championship.

this is really
It's so embarrassing.

And now on the scene.

It really embarrassed Abalak.

The situation is really ugly.

Manchester City, with its luxurious lineup, was completely suppressed
Putting Pellegrini at the helm of Manchester City looks like a mistake

Abalak thought.

Pellegrini on the sidelines certainly didn't know that his current coaching position was so unstable.

But he was very clear.

If he doesn't help Manchester City get anything this season.

He will definitely not be able to continue to be at the helm of Manchester City next season.

So his current insistence is a big gamble.

And he was about to lose the bet.

It is obviously an exaggeration to say that Manchester City could not last for 5 minutes.

And indeed they underestimated Manchester City.

Facing Arsenal's offensive, Manchester City still managed to hold on for 5 minutes.

So they conceded the ball in the 6th minute.

Pellegrini overestimated Manchester City's defensive capabilities.

It was also too low a trough for Arsenal's offensive capabilities.

Under the three-dimensional offensive of Arsenal's heavy artillery bombardment, header bombing, ground penetration and other combined operations.

Manchester City's defense was crumbling and quickly collapsing.

Mane's cross from the wing.

The football flew high into the penalty area.

Kompany jumped high and competed with Yello for the header. As a result, he was pinned down by Yello in the air, and then Yello made a perfect lion's head shake.

The football flew into the goal from the junction of the goal beam and the pillar.

This is a theoretical dead end.

Joe Hart is England's number one international goalkeeper.

Although he often loses the world wave.

But his saving ability is still very recognized.

But face this ball.

There was nothing Joe Hart could do.

Manchester City fans were silent.

They don't know what they should do to help the team's decline.

In fact.

What they are thinking about now is not winning or anything like that.

But
Screaming at the coaching staff.

no way.

The team's performance is not good.

The one who needs to take the blame first.

Isn't he the head coach?

The Arsenal fans couldn't care less. They cheered as soon as they saw the ball flying into the goal.

"Ye Luo!!! Long live!!!"

amid huge cheers.

Ye Luo saw the football flying into the net from the air. After he fell from the air, he pushed away the Manchester City players in front of him, ran all the way to the sidelines, and then made a long sliding kneel.

Faced with such arrogant celebration.

Manchester City fans finally reacted.

Their response was sharp boos.

But the booing could not have reached a higher decibel level.

It can't change the current score.

and.

Wembley Stadium now.

Their boos.

It may not be able to suppress the cheers of Arsenal fans!
Manchester City finally scored a goal and were equalized by Arsenal in just 6 minutes.

This is quite a fatal blow to morale!
The camera focused on Pellegrini, whose expression was extremely ugly.

He knows very well what kind of situation his team is facing now.

but.

He does now.
It is also difficult to come up with a way to immediately reverse the situation.

He is the head coach.

Not God.

Not even Ye Luo - if he had Ye Luo in his current formation, he would definitely have a solution.

But it's a pity.

No.

Aguero is excellent.

but.

Yeluo
It’s still too different!
"Pellegrini is responsible for Manchester City's current situation. After scoring the goal, his choice was really questionable. He asked Manchester City to recycle all the way. As a result, Manchester City, who recycled all the way, only lasted for 6 minutes. "

Commentators all believe that Pellegrini's tactical choices have led to Manchester City's current passivity.

Manchester City fans also put the blame on Pellegrini, thinking that he was too cowardly and that his conservative strategy led to the loss of the team's good situation.
no way.

This is fans.

They only look at the results.

If Pellegrini chooses to attack aggressively after taking the lead.

they.

Maybe you will think that the head coach is too aggressive and the team is passive.

In short.

A large part of the head coach's salary is used to take the blame.

Now everyone is putting the blame for Manchester City's equalizer on Pellegrini's head.

After all, he is the team's head coach.

He made a choice.

Then you have to bear the price.

Abalak, who was sitting on the rostrum, looked even more ugly.

To tell the truth.

His boss spent so much money, wasn't his purpose just to produce results?
These feudal monarchs in the Middle East are still very aware of how fragile their rule is in this modern society.

They spend money investing in football and sports industries.

Isn’t it just to please ordinary people in Western countries?

Therefore, as long as results can be achieved.

Money and everything else are no big deal.

Originally, Manchester City was in a good situation at the beginning.

It even threatened Manchester United for a time.

But since Yello moved to Arsenal.

Everything has changed.

The story of the Premier League is no longer Manchester City and Manchester United.

Arsenal, where Yelo belongs, became the protagonist.

Abrac began to think about a question: Although Pellegrini led Malaga to win the Champions League, it seems that this has little to do with his ability. The biggest factor in Malaga's ability to win the championship is because Ye Luo, therefore, Pellet, can you really control the aircraft carrier Manchester City?

Abalak doubted this.

Manchester City are finished for the season.

But, they still have next season, and the season after that.

Under Pellegrini.

Manchester City, can they make a breakthrough?
Want to succeed against Arsenal's pressure.

Is it time to change the head coach?

Just when Abalak was thinking about this issue seriously.

The game has restarted.

Arsenal equalized the score and their morale was shaken.

The morale of Manchester City has dropped.

So they can no longer be considered active recycling.

Instead, he was beaten down by Arsenal's crazy attack and couldn't hold his head up.

They have no other choice but to defend themselves.

Now they can only hold on until halftime.

Only then can they take a breath.

Pellegrini stood on the sidelines.

His face was serious.

The more he thought about it, the more headache he got.

Facing Arsenal like this.

I'm really at a loss what to do.

He couldn't find a way to deal with Arsenal, especially Yello.

If he had his way, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.

The head coach was at his wits end.

Team morale is low.

under these circumstances.

It is natural for Manchester City to concede a goal.

Game No.306 minutes.

Yelo broke through with the ball at the front of the penalty area and was pulled to the ground by Yaya Toure.

Arsenal received a free kick that was perfectly positioned to face the goal.

Ye Luo stood in front of the ball.

Manchester City are of course very nervous.

Joe Hart made people line up a wall of five people!
Facing the five-man wall lined up by Manchester City.

Ye Luo looked at the position of the goal, his back legs, and his good footwork.

With the referee's whistle sounded.

approach.

shoot!

The football went over the wall.

Subsequently
Fall quickly!
The line was erratic from side to side.

Like leaves falling from a tree.

Goalkeeper Joe Hart was of course helpless in the face of such a shot.The football hit the lower edge of the crossbar with a clang and bounced into the goal.

One to two! !
Arsenal overtook the score! !
"Beautiful! Arsenal leads the score!"

"It's almost predictable!"

"Manchester City is so embarrassed. They have to think of something in the second half, otherwise Manchester City will lose everything this season!"

The commentators shook their heads.

They feel that Manchester City has simply brought it upon itself.

It was originally a good offensive battle.

As a result, they had to be smart and recover their defense after taking the lead.

Now come the retribution!
Manchester City is not a team that is good at defense.

Want to rely on your own defense to stop Arsenal.

What is your defensive level? Do you have any B numbers?
The commentators are all hindsight, and they infer that Manchester City's choice was unreasonable based on the current results.

But if they were in Pellegrini's shoes.

Can they think of a better way?

You might die faster against Arsenal.

This can only show the strength of Arsenal.

Already one level better than Manchester City.

No matter what choice the head coach makes.

It is difficult to restore the gap in hard power between the two sides.
The first half of the game ended with a score of [-] to [-].

Although Manchester City was only one goal behind and there were still 45 minutes left in the second half.

In theory.

Manchester City has not completely lost, they still have 45 minutes to save the game.

Save the season.

But everyone felt that Manchester City was destined to lose this game.

Arsenal will win.

Because the lagging Manchester City really couldn't find any way to threaten Szczesny's goal.

Pellegrini also looks a little helpless now.

He stood on the sideline for three 10 minutes in the first half.

I was stunned that I couldn't come up with anything.

Of course, some people will think that Pellegrini is so determined that he has to wait until halftime to make adjustments.

If Manchester City can take over the game in the second half.

This sentence may also be correct

But in football.

It's all about the results.

The winner is king.

That's the situation now.

Manchester City is one goal ahead.

Reversed by Arsenal.

So now the loser is Pellegrini.

Arsenal, who were in the lead, were certainly very relaxed and happy when they returned to the dressing room at halftime.

In the case of conceding a goal first.

Yeluo scored two goals in a row to complete the lead.

This certainly boosted the morale of the Arsenal players.

Plus they have already won several games against Manchester City.

They also have a psychological advantage.

Therefore, everyone felt that this game was definitely won.

The players are confident.

But it's a different story in the Manchester City dressing room.

Pellegrini returned to the dressing room earlier than the players.

Because he has to think about how to revive the team's morale.

"Now we are only one goal behind. We only need to score one more goal to equalize the score. Then it will be Arsenal who are anxious."

Pellegrini said.

But the words came out.

Didn't achieve any results.

It is obviously difficult to impress these Manchester City stadium veterans with this kind of chicken-blooded words. What they need is not to chicken-blooded, but to get clear instructions on what they need to do to defeat Arsenal. !
The effect of beating chicken blood.

It also depends on the situation.

The team's number one star Aguero even snorted after hearing these words, then stood up and said unceremoniously: "Boss, stop talking about these scenes now, we need to attack, now you tell us, we are going to How to attack, how to beat Arsenal! You tell me, you are the head coach, you have to come up with a solution!"

Pellegrini frowned.

If only he knew what to do.

There is no need for meaningless injections of chicken blood.

Aguero's words just touched on Pellegrini's pain.

He knows Ye Luo best.

I also most agree with the sentence "Ye Luo can't be defeated".

And how to beat Arsenal.

It actually comes down to how to defeat Ye Luo.

But
Pellegrini believed from the bottom of his heart that Yello was an unbeatable player.

Even the head coach thinks so.

He'd be damned if he could come up with something.

But as a head coach, I was helpless.

This embarrassed Pellegrini again.

Hit people without slapping their faces, and curse people without revealing shortcomings.

Aguero was directly slapping Pellegrini in the face.

For this kind of blatant defiance of his authority in the locker room.

Pellegrini was surprised and angry.

One player went out of his way to directly question the head coach during halftime.

This shows that he has lost control of the locker room.

It's a big deal.

The situation is serious.

Pellegrini took a deep breath.

he knows.

Now is not the time to clash with Aguero.

He decided to ignore Aguero.

Keep inspiring your players.

"We continue to attack in the second half!"

"How to attack? You have to find a way!"

Pellegrini's concession was not understood by Aguero.

Aguero continued to be aggressive: "Boss, don't say these useless things, just say what needs to be done tactically and how we can score goals!"

"What we need now is a damn goal, not some nutritious chicken soup!"

Aguero said angrily.

Pellegrini was speechless after being contradicted by Aguero.

Aguero became even more angry.

"You have no choice at all, right?"

Aguero looked at his teammates.

"As you can see, he has no way at all, yes, he has no way! This is not just a question of this game, are we worse than Arsenal? No! We are not worse than them, if the head coach can do anything good No way, we would have beaten Arsenal long ago!"

"But from last season to now, we have never defeated Arsenal once! This season we have lost consecutively, so there is nothing you can do, right?"

Aguero stared at Pellegrini, whose face was extremely pale and said.

The other Manchester City players were stunned.

The top star and the head coach clash head-on.

Manchester City's players don't know what to do now.

This is a coup!

Aguero wants to subvert Pellegrini's authority in the locker room!
It's a big deal!
Things are really big! !

Aguero's eyes sparkled.

What I said before was said out of anger.

But after these words were spoken.

Aguero calmed down instead.

He can become a world-class center.

IQ is certainly not an issue.

So he knows.

Since we have to do it.

Then do it to the end!
Get rid of this head coach completely.

Doesn’t Manchester City want to renew his contract?
Then he made a condition.

If you want to renew the contract, let Pellegrini leave! !

In this way, his status and voice in the Manchester City locker room are completely established.

The highest salary on the team?

This is no longer Aguero's goal.

What he needs is more power.

Only in this way can you bring out your true strength.

Just like that Ye Luo!
Aguero feels that the reason why he has not been able to score so many goals with Yello.

The reason is that the head coach did not devote tactical resources to himself.

If you allow yourself unlimited firing rights, you will have the same authority as Ye Luo on the court.

You can also become a goal-scoring killer!
Manchester City players stared at Aguero.

They didn't expect this guy who usually seemed gentle.

How dare you do this at a critical moment.

Pellegrini is also keeping an eye on Aguero.

Aguero would actually attack at this time.

for a while.

Pellegrini was completely helpless.

It’s not just that there is no way to beat Arsenal.

In the locker room.

His right to speak.
Also losing quickly.

Because many players at Manchester City are also looking at him.

Ask him to come up with a way to beat Arsenal.

But Pellegrini really doesn't know.

This is really too difficult.

The Manchester City dressing room fell into an eerie silence.

As for what to do in this FA Cup semi-final?
Who cares about this anymore.
