Chapter 439 Once the trump card
Mancini has been very proud recently, winning the Manchester derby, which is the most eye-catching in history. This is the most glorious match in his coaching career.
Moreover, the winning bonus paid by the team boss after the game also made the whole team happy.
Xu Qi drove his Lamborghini Bat on the streets of Manchester with a tent. Whenever there was a Manchester City fan, he would wave to Xu Qi on his own initiative, and Xu Qi responded with a smile.
This game has changed a lot of attitude towards Manchester City fans towards him. Before that, many fans have questioned him. After all, his transfer fee is too high, and he has always performed not as well as Aguero, who is not as valuable as him.
However, now it seems that Xu Qi is still a very important member of the team. In the big score of the game against Manchester United, many fans think he and David Silva are the biggest contributors of the team. The midfield lineup led by the two completely dominated the game. With the control and support of these two in the midfield, Balotelli, Dzeko, Aguero and others were able to siege the city and capture the village in the front.
Compared with the pride of Manchester City players, there is another person in this team who is a little lost, that is, Tevez, who was banned because he refused to play in the game against Bayern.
Xu Qi's residence is closer to where Teves lives, but the two did not communicate much. Teves' personality is not the kind of personality that can get along with others.
However, near the residential area that day, Xu Qi met Tevez. He had not appeared on the team's training ground for many days.
Xu Qi also respects Tevez. Xu Qi also sees everything he has encountered this season. He doesn't know what to say, but he also knows that Tevez was the captain of the team last season and the biggest contributor to the team's entry into the Champions League.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Manchester City belonged to Tevez last season.
He is the team's best scorer and the team's ace, but because the team introduced new aces like Aguero and Xu Qi in the summer, he was neglected. With his personality, he doesn't like this, and he will express what he feels dissatisfied with.
Xu Qi stopped the car and saw Tevez wearing sunglasses as if he was about to go out. He asked casually: "Are you going out, Alberto."
Teves seemed a little lonely. After seeing Xu Qi, he forced a smile and replied: "I'm going back to Argentina, Xu."
"Why, the league continues, we still have to work together. Your current situation is only temporary. I believe you will get a chance." Xu Qi was a little surprised.
"The team doesn't need me now, and Mancini doesn't like me either. The team now belongs to you. You can create history with the team, but it doesn't include me. I no longer belong to Manchester City." Tevez said something that made Xu Qi a little confused.
"It's not that serious, and there is still room for ease. The team needs you. We have to fight on the third and even the fourth line. You are still the top striker in the world. Any team needs you." Xu Qi felt that it would be a pity if Tevez didn't stay in Manchester City, but he seemed that Tevez had made a decision. Judging from the current situation, Tevez might really find it difficult for Tevez to stay in this team.
This is the cruelty of professional football. Last season, he was the team's ace and the absolute main force of the team. However, with the arrival of Xu Qi, Aguero and others this season, he lost the opportunity. Coupled with his personality problems, it also made it difficult for him to win Mancini's favor, so he lost the opportunity...
He is completely different from Xu Qi. Xu Qi will not encounter those. Xu Qi is a player that Mancini insists on signing. Manchester City has paid high transfer fees and salary for Xu Qi. Therefore, Mancini must ensure Xu Qi's playing time, and Xu Qi's personality is also easy to gain Mancini's trust.
Tevez doesn't hate Xu Qi either. He was also impressed by Xu Qi's football talent during training. He knew that the team's future must be Xu Qi's, and it is difficult for him to stay in this team. It is really difficult to let him accept the positioning of a substitute.
Everyone has their own professional trajectory, and Xu Qi didn't advise anything. When a team has accumulated too many outstanding players, sometimes it may not be all good.
Looking at Tevez's lonely back after leaving, Xu Qi also felt a lot of feelings in his mind. Perhaps if one day there is a better person to replace him, it will be difficult for him to withstand such reality. Every football player is extremely arrogant in his heart.
He is absolutely unwilling to admit that he is not as good as others. Some reporters like to ask Messi or Ronaldo's teammates about who is the best player in the world, but why do they only give the other two options? Can Casillas, Xavi and Iniesta think that the best in the world are one of these two people? Are Casillas, Xavi and Xavi not worthy of the title of No. 1 in the world?
Perhaps in their own hearts, they are the world's number one, and in Tevez's heart, he also thinks he is the best player, always!
The next day, the news that Tevez left the team for no reason and returned to Argentina was exposed by the media. At this moment, the relationship between Tevez and Manchester City finally came to an end...
At this moment, Xu Qi and other Manchester City players have already started a new round of preparations at the training base of Manchester City.
The Champions League is coming again.
Manchester City will face Villarreal in La Liga at home.
Manchester City will strive for the first victory in the Champions League in this game, which is a crucial game. If Villarreal, who has lost two consecutive games, cannot win, then Manchester City will not want to advance, which is impossible.
Since he had just experienced a big league victory, Manchester City was also very confident at this time and wanted to use a big victory to announce the return of Manchester City's king.
They want to prove themselves in the Champions League, rather than continue to be mocked by their mortal enemies as teams that embarrass the Premier League by foreign players.
In fact, Manchester City's record is not bad. Losing to Bayern by 1-2 away is actually a normal performance. It's just that he was tied by Napoli at home. However, Napoli is definitely a strong team. It's just that people overestimated Manchester City's trough before the game.
However, it is indeed easy to question if you don’t win, regardless of whether your opponent is strong or not.
Villarreal has also had many confrontation records. As the mortal enemy of Valencia in the Valencia region, Xu Qi has had a record of confrontation with Villarreal in the league and in the Copa del Rey, and Xu Qi has gained an advantage in all these confrontations.
In this matchup with Villarreal in the Champions League, Xu Qi was believed by Premier League experts to become a key player.
