In the eyes of many people, Zhang Yang has extremely strong personal abilities, even among the three most talented young people in today's football world, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, and Zhang Yang, the strongest personal abilities. However, Zhang Yang's personality determines that his performance is far inferior to the other two.

Not to mention anything else, Zhang Yang's choice of a team like Manchester City is almost destined. In the next three to five years, Zhang Yang will be far away from the European Golden Ball Awards and the World Footballer. Unless Zhang Yang chooses to transfer to Manchester City, he can only watch Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi compete for the highest honor.

"Cristiano Ronaldo is at Manchester United, and may be in Real Madrid in the future, and Messi cannot see the meaning of leaving Barcelona. These two people cannot do anything to join a team like Manchester City. Although Zhang Yang has become the real boss of the team at Manchester City, he will also lose more..." - "Marca"

The media quarrel over Zhang Yang's transfer to Manchester City was originally a lot smaller as Zhang Yang scored goals in the Premier League and led Manchester City in a good ranking. However, after the Golden Globe Awards were awarded, the quarrel became noisy again.

"Are you okay?" Melissa Terrio called Zhang Yang and asked with concern.

"It's okay." Zhang Yang smiled heartily.

"It's really okay?"

"What do you do?" Zhang Yang said, "In fact, I should still be happy. These people "have a grudge for me" and "sad for me", which means they still have a good impression of me."

"What they said is not good at all." Melissa Terrio said with a frown, very upset about his lover.

"I won't talk about this anymore." Zhang Yang smiled, "Can you come here to accompany me on Christmas?"

The other end of the phone was silent for more than ten seconds, "I'm sorry, I could have had time to pass, but because of something, I might not be able to go there with you..."

The loss in Zhang Yang's heart was obvious, "Ah, it doesn't matter, you should do your own business first."

Melissa Terrio was silent for a while, "Mom wants me to meet someone."

Zhang Yang immediately understood, "Go to see your father?"

"Yeah." Melissa Terrio nodded.

"It's good to meet, I have to face it." Zhang Yang didn't know how to comfort Melissa Terrio, because it seemed like a good thing. The female anchor's father and mother broke up because of a disagreement when she was very young. Neither of them got married until they broke up. Melissa Terrio's mother also became an unmarried mother. After that, she did not get married and lived alone with her children. Melissa Terrio was not unwilling to go over and find her father, but her mother strongly opposed it. She always disagreed with Melissa Terrio and her father. She just didn't know why she agreed this time.

"I'm sorry, I can't accompany you on Christmas."

"I should say I'm sorry. At this time, I should be with you." Zhang Yang said.

Although Zhang Yang no longer had a grudge, because Melissa Terrio's incident was indeed a big deal. If the family could be reunited, it would be a good thing. I just thought that I would celebrate Christmas alone, and I felt a little irritated.

Melissa Terrio cannot come to celebrate Christmas together, and Emma Watson must be even more impossible. ‘Hermione’ has been very busy recently. Moreover, even if she can take a break during the two days of Christmas, Emma will accompany her parents instead of coming to Manchester alone to accompany her boyfriend who is a little unclear.

On December 13, 2008, in the 17th round of the 2008/2009 Premier League season, Manchester City welcomed Everton at home. In the end, Manchester City beat Everton at home by 1-0.

It should be said that Moyes' team is still very successful in defending Zhang Yang. After the game, the media even believed that Everton did better than Arsenal and Manchester United in defending Zhang Yang.

"...Everton did a good job, but Zhang Yang is Zhang Yang after all. You can't watch him in the ninety-minute game. As long as you give him a chance, he can create a huge threat..." - The Times

At 81 minutes of the game, Zhang Yang broke into the penalty area and faced two Everton defensive players. He shook left and right, but he actually broke out in a bloody way. The Everton defender was shocked when he saw this and made a mistake in his busy schedule. Only then could he tackle Zhang Yang to the ground from the back.

This was an unquestionable penalty kick, the referee awarded the penalty kick and presented a red card to the foul player.

Penalty ball plus red card!

Modric scored a penalty.

The star's personal ability showed a glimmer of insight, bringing Manchester City a victory.

After getting these three points, Manchester City's points in the league reached 31 points. Their points were close to the city's rival Manchester United, only one point less than Manchester United. Manchester City ranked fourth, Manchester United ranked third, and Liverpool and Chelsea were still the first and second places. The points of the two teams were 36 points and 35 points respectively. It is worth mentioning that Aston Villa has a good record recently, and they have become another dark horse. In this round, Aston Villa's points reached 31 points, and they scored with Manchester City. However, because of the few goals difference, they ranked fifth, but Arsenal was squeezed to sixth place. The seventh place is still Hull City, with Everton following closely behind.

"In this season, the competition for Premier League championships will be very fierce. Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United, the three teams have the largest score difference now, and only four points! Of course, there is also Arsenal. Although they are six points behind Liverpool, in the long season, the six-point difference is not an insurmountable obstacle..."

In this analysis article by The Guardian, although Manchester City and Aston Villa rank higher than Arsenal, it is obvious that the English media excluded these two teams from the championship team. Fighting for the championship requires strong strength, deep background, and a head coach and team flag that can lead the team to cope with various complex situations. Obviously, Aston Villa and Manchester City do not have these.

Of course, although the Daily Mirror also agreed with the Guardian's analysis, they also praised Manchester City and Aston Villa, believing that if one of Manchester City and Aston Villa can achieve fourth place in the league after the season, this will be the biggest surprise of the Premier League this season. In addition, the Daily Mirror has also begun to analyze which team is most likely to be squeezed out of the top four in the traditional BIG4. Because if Manchester City or Aston Villa want to take the lead, there will definitely be a traditional BIG4 to be killed.

The final analysis result is that Arsenal is the most dangerous. Of course, the media also pointed out that now, the competition for the fourth place in the league will be extremely cruel. Even the current leaders Liverpool, second place Chelsea and third place Manchester United may be involved in this cruel battle once there is a decline in the later game of the season.

For the media and fans, this also means that this season's Premier League, whether it is the championship or the Champions League qualification, will be extremely tragic, which also means that the league will be more exciting and beautiful.

On December 19, 2008, in the 18th round of the Premier League, Manchester City was tied by West Bromwich 2-2 away, and Zhang Yang scored a goal, increasing his goal in the Premier League this season to 19 goals.

After this round of league, Manchester City's ranking also fell to fifth place because Aston Villa won again in this round of league, and their points now reached 35 points, ranking fourth. This team, which was killed by Manchester City in the first round of this season, exploded in an astonishing state under the leadership of head coach O'Neal.

After this round of league, although it is Christmas soon, the team will still train together. The team will only have a holiday on December 23rd. However, on the morning of the 26th, the team will be concentrated because, on that night, they still have a league game to play.

Among the five major leagues, there is only the Premier League without a winter break.

In the cold winter, it is not suitable for sports. After half of the tense season, players enter the most exhausting stage of the year. Overdrawing of physical strength and mental fatigue can easily cause injuries to players, which will affect the more intense league in the second half.

Players drag their tired bodies to play football on the court. Their bodies and some technical movements will be slower than usual. This is not only physical fatigue, but also psychological fatigue, and the pace of the game will also become slower...

Compared with other European leagues, there is no winter break in the Premier League, where money and interests are paramount. The Premier League has always had 20 teams, with more games and two cups. Other countries have placed the cup in the middle of the week, but for the needs of market development and television broadcasting, the FA put the cup on Saturday and Sunday, and naturally the winter break was squeezed out. Not only does there not have the winter break, but in the Premier League, the schedule is still very close during Christmas and New Year's Day, which is a bit similar to the NBA. This arrangement is conducive to the commercial promotion of the league, but players will work harder.

Players and coaches have also complained about this, but the FA completely ignored it. In their eyes, business interests are the most important, and the health and fatigue of the players are secondary.

In fact, there has always been a saying that England's poor performance in major competitions is closely related to the fact that there is no winter break in the Premier League.

In the World Cup, England seemed to have a rule, that is, the players were lively in the first half but exhausted in the second half. This is not because they are not good at distributing their physical strength reasonably, but because the Premier League has exhausted their physical strength and the Premier League is tired.

Premier League players have to participate in 38 league games every season, plus the FA Cup and League Cup. If they are rich, they still have to play in European stadiums. It is not too much for players in the team to play 60 games in a season, and even Iron Man can't stand it after a season.

In recent years, some famous football players and coaches have called for the Premier League to set up a winter break. Capello, the current head coach of England, has also begun to criticize the Premier League schedule. He believes that the Premier League schedule is too intensive, especially without a winter break, which is one of the reasons why England's poor record: "I can already imagine the scene during the South African World Cup. By then, my players will be exhausted because the intense and intensive leagues have made them physically tired and unable to return to their peak."

"Frequent double matches on a week will destroy the players' bodies and make them as easily injured as glass men. In Serie A, we rarely see Zhang Yang missing the game due to injury. However, in the first half of this season, Zhang Yang has missed the game due to injury twice." The Daily Mail said this. Although what they said is not accurate, Zhang Yang's injury is also related to the competition in the Premier League more fiercely than in the Serie A, and has little to do with the intensive events, because Zhang Yang has not experienced the devil schedule during Christmas, but this report is still regarded by many people as evidence to accuse the intensive schedule of the Premier League. It can be seen that the intensive schedule without a winter break is indeed a resentment.

For Zhang Yang, the biggest discomfort was that he would not be able to return to his country to reunite with his family without a holiday, and even taking time to have a try with Little Emma has become impossible.

This is the biggest resentment.
