The real one favorite ???

Man City and this minute are ranked fifth in the Premier League table. 4 points behind the crowd and former champion Liverpool.

But in this season’s Premier League favorites table of legal gambling in the football capital The Blues are back as their own “favorites” once again.

Ask why ???

The answer is a horrific performance in the last battle that pushed Chelsea to the country.

Because of what the Shark Team players showed, it was “the most unmatched” as it had shown a few seasons ago.

Back in the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons, Manchester City won two Premier League titles in a row. By accumulating a total of 198 points

The gameplay of Man City from the bald, empty pate of Pep Guardiola is perfect in the eyes of the home audience like me.

Especially in the second half of the 2018-19 season, it stunned forward at a staggering speed, whipping up 18 of the last 19 games of the season and winning 14 in a row before slashing Liverpool into the finish line. Narrow at the tip of the nose

Fierce attacking game and patties Plus rich in performance

While the game serves a philosophy of attacking gaming It was the best defensive game, plus a strong center-back like Vincent Campany and Emerick Laporte.

In other words, they rely on more ball possession than their opponents. To reduce the chance of losing their own goals to be less in the body

Think simple according to mathematics.

When you average 70% of the ball on most matches, this means that your opponent has a 30% chance of owning the ball.

So your chance of losing a goal is in 30% of your opponent’s possession.

In addition, the Catalan mentor also installed the British dubbed “pressing” style for his team. This is slightly different from Liverpool’s “heavy metal football” in that when cutting the ball or stealing the ball. They will connect the ball first for 5-6 strokes without making a lightning strike.

The reason is that if it attacks too quickly The certainty will decrease as well. – The chance of losing the ball will be greater.

Never again uses a method to cut the power, but the wind itself.

As soon as they lose possession of the ball, City’s players will swarm the ball back. Noticing who lost the ball, that person must be the first to try to get the ball back. When he sees a bad posture, the foul will be cut. With a heavy skewer And immediately overturned Is to lose the free kick
In the opponent’s field or losing a frick in the middle of the field is better than being countered quickly Because the raids opened up many empty areas in their own territory

It was around two years that Man City’s performance was the most flattered in football history until the home audience like me gave them the title …

But like fireworks that explode in the sky

So last season was Man City’s “fall” period.

Many shots that the form of playing is freaking out until it loses its focus, bumps into a horrible setback, 3 baht each

A defensive game without Commander Vincent Campany, while Emerik Laporte, who is kidnapped by multiple injuries, becomes a weak point, making the team easy to concede. For no reason And doesn’t need any understanding at all

After great success — the motivation and the desire for success naturally diminish.

The performance of many players has also dropped, for example, Bernardo Silva, who was outstanding in 2018-19, while many of the main players have surpassed the top of their career, such as Gunogue. Ro, Fernandinho and the aging David Silva

From 100 points in 2017-18 and from 98 points in 2018-19 last season Manchester’s Blue Team only accumulated 81 points.

This season, Manchester City start the season more slowly than other teams. Without pre-season until it takes time in the first part of the season, just like a preseason game To prepare

Man City’s weaknesses that are clearly visible in Full HD Is Prasit image in the attacking game

They still dominate the ball more than their opponents. The problem is that the finishing timing is hard towards the throwback and the throw.

The weakness in the defensive game is not completely gone.

Two losing games this season come from playing a defensive bus-style opponent and taking a stealth attack.

A 2-5 loss to Leicester home like the home owner of the Etihad Stadium was hit by Jamie Vardy’s hell-bent speed.

The game that lost to Spurs 0-2 was the right way to play Jose Mourinho’s “Park the Fuggling Bus”, haunted, plus the arrogant boss also hurts like a stinging hole for the team that dominates the ball. More than 70% like Man City take the ball home and I take 3 points.

Passed 8 Premier League matches The rich man’s sailboat coordinated with the bus until it crashed 2 times and always dropped 3 more shots, collecting only 12 points.

I vowed to the death of the dog head lightning that at that point I could not see a “favorite” from Man City at all.

But in the meantime, Pep Guardiola is gradually correcting his own team’s flaws.

The first point is the defensive game. Which eventually discovered the perfect center-back pair that was a pairing between Rubendias and John Stones.

The Portuguese defender has made 13 Premier League appearances, conceding just seven goals, while in my eyes – John Stones is a tall defender who reads the game well and has speed. The downside is that they like “Show North” and often fall off their neck. With self-confidence wrong

When you get older More experience The 26-carat England defender has gotten even more cool, having once again succeeded in securing the main body.

John Stones have made seven Premier League appearances, conceding just two goals.

Pep Guardiola’s way of thinking has also changed. By reducing the arrogance and stubbornness, then putting more flexibility

Some matches are planned for the team to play more focused on the result. Not a rugby attack, an invasion without forgetfulness

A clear example is the draw with Liverpool and Man United that have shown the intention of being satisfied with the draw.

The last battle that invaded Chelsea without fear.

Man City is devoid of many key players.

Whether it is a first-hand goalkeeper like Adair hides

Defenders like Kyle Walker and Emerick Laporte as well as Nathan Age.

The strikers were without Gabriel Jesus and Ferrant Torres, while Riyad Mahrez and Gun Aguero put their asses on the bench.

According to the chart of play that came up at first, it was understood that Raheem Sterling would have been moved into a striker. Only when you saw each other’s position on the grass floor, Pep Guardiola was using Kevin De Bruyne in the front of the target … just like that.

The target position is true, but it really plays like a “fake striker” who has been freed above all else, which Kevin De Bruyne has done an excellent job and quite well.

In the role of the spearhead Like most strikers, he can hold the ball, hold the ball and charge it.

Immediately back down, pick up the ball and create a game in the middle of the role of player number 10, moving left and right, depending on the situation. Coordinate with teammates and substitute positions perfectly

About 10 minutes after letting Chelsea go on and on when they set up, Man City dominated the game as a whole, demonstrating how to play a top-level ball monkey until their opponents couldn’t find the ball. Don’t know what to do Can only chase the ball What you see is the timing of the action created by the quick and accurate connection of the ball. Add a lot of teamwork and find a rhythm to finish with a periodic shot. Before the dark, the home of 3 throws, focusing on

It was the worst first half of Manchester City this season.

With a 3-0 lead in the first half, they came down in the second half with a close match. And keep the score Rather than adding more goals, allowing Chelsea to have some possession of the ball, two halves that saw a systematic play And the flexibility of the Blue team of Manchester is very clear.

Manchester City have won three games in the Premier League in a row and have not lost seven games since the accident at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, scoring 14 and losing just two numbers, improving both in attack and game. Pick up until moving up to be “one favorite” again

Let me tell you that Liverpool’s “real challenger” must admit that they are more worthy than Manchester United.

Boo.
