"Youngest Grand Slam coach ever!!"
This is the title chosen by Sky Sports.
"After coach Gao Bo led Manchester City to win the European Super Cup, the 31-year-old Gao Bo has become the youngest European club honorary Grand Slam coach in history!! Of course, he also has an English League Cup trophy. It has not been touched, but traditionally, the honor of the League Cup is of course not comparable to the FA Cup, and, in the five major European leagues, there are no parallel League Cup and FA Cup in several other leagues except the Premier League. The cup format, of course, Manchester City may have won the League Cup this season? With their form and depth of the squad, it is not surprising that they even do that!"
Manchester City and Hull City in the third round of the Premier League have been postponed for a few days due to their participation in the European Super Cup.
In midweek, Manchester City ushered in the challenge of Hull City at home.
Since the previous European Super Cup has had some rotations, Gao Bo was able to send the entire main lineup in this game.
In the end, Manchester City relied on Hazard's brace and Griezmann's long-range shot! 3-0 home win over Hull City!
After the game, the media exclaimed the strength of Manchester City!
"This Manchester City team is getting stronger and stronger, they have amazing depth, first-class stars both in the main and on the bench! And their main line-up is very young, Griezmann and Hazard, and David Silva, these three Manchester City players, if their form can be maintained, these three players will be super players that Manchester City can rely on for the next ten years!"
After three rounds,
Manchester City won three games and won nine points, ranking first in the league.
Second place is Liverpool.
Surprisingly, Liverpool also won the first three rounds of the league. They first beat Stoke City at home, then beat Aston Villa away in the second round, and returned to home in the third round. Benitez The team beat Manchester United 1-0 at home and won the red derby!
This result not only surprised the fans and the media, but even Gao Bo paid attention to Benitez's team.
All three games ended with the same result, with Liverpool winning 1-0 - 1-0 in three, giving Liverpool three wins and second place in the league on goal difference.
In third place is Chelsea.
Mourinho's team had two wins and one draw in the first three games, with seven points and third place.
The fourth place is Arsenal. After losing in the first round, Professor Wenger's team ushered in two big wins and secured the third place with six points.
Guardiola's Manchester United had a bad start in the first three rounds of the league, especially the draw with Chelsea, and then lost to Liverpool on the road. They could not win two consecutive games, which made Guardiola's team's ranking drop to eighth. name.
Manchester United, the favourite to win the title before the game, seems to have encountered a small crisis at this time.
There have also been discussions about Manchester United in the media. Some media have already believed that Manchester United's slow start to this season may be an important reason for their final defeat in the championship competition.
However, the league has just begun, and the current results and rankings will not have much reference value.
Of course, Manchester United fans are very dissatisfied with the team's performance.
In three rounds, one draw and one loss, the team only scored four points, five points behind their rivals Manchester City, especially the loss to Liverpool on the road, which made Manchester United fans very upset.
Manchester United fans are not happy, of course Manchester City fans are very happy.
In the past, when the fans of the two sides were on the bar, Manchester United fans humiliated Manchester City by saying that Manchester City did not have the Premier League title and the Champions League title.
But after last season, Manchester City won the Premier League and the Champions League at the same time!
This made Manchester City fans feel very proud.
Manchester City fans have never had such confidence in the team as they are now. The Manchester City era of Gao Bo is destined to be the greatest era of Manchester City since its establishment!
......
After finishing the third round of the Premier League, the fourth round of the Premier League followed.
In the fourth round of the Premier League, Manchester City face Stoke City away!
In this game, Gao Bo made some small rotations in the frontcourt.
Adam White and Vardy got the chance to play, while Hazard and Griezmann were rested.
Since the team is all-out this season, Gao Bo attaches great importance to the rotation strategy.
The first is to ensure that the physical fitness of the main players can be guaranteed, and the second is of course to give the substitute players more opportunities to play so that they can stand up at critical moments.
It is worth mentioning that Li Yuanshan entered the squad in this game, but did not get the chance to play.
In the previous three rounds of the Premier League, Li Yuanshan went to participate in the reserve league games.
And the reason why Li Yuanshan did not play in this game is also very simple.
Because the team finally replaced players in the middle and back-in the 70th minute of the game, when a direct free kick from Eriksen helped the team take a 4-0 lead, the team closed the game .
Then Gao Bo began to replace several midfielders.
Denis Suarez and Wanyama came off the bench, replacing Sanchez and David Silva!
And even so, the game is not over yet!
In the 83rd minute of the game, Vardy scored a header in the penalty area!
Five to zero!
Vardy staged a hat Siva, Manchester City also beat Stoke City away, and won the league's four-game winning streak!
At the same time, Liverpool were drawn 2-2 by Swansea on the road, and their three-game winning streak was ended.
In this way, Manchester City won four consecutive victories and scored twelve points, topping the league table.
Their arch-rivals Manchester United have just seven points after four games, five behind Manchester City, and Chelsea have ten points and two behind Manchester City.
As for Liverpool, because Liverpool have not won the Premier League title since they entered the Premier League era, most media did not count Liverpool among the league title contenders.
Points are not enough to show the strength of Manchester City.
On the number of goals! Manchester City scored fourteen goals in four rounds of the league! The average number of goals per game is more than three, and in terms of the number of goals conceded.... So far, the number of goals conceded by Manchester City is still zero!
In the first four rounds of the league, no team has been able to break Manchester City's goal.
In terms of scoring data, Chelsea, who overtook Liverpool and ranked second in the league, only scored five goals, nine fewer goals than Manchester City, and Chelsea still conceded one goal.
Therefore, after the fourth round of the Premier League, the media exclaimed: Who is going to stop Manchester City?
