Chapter 749 The Catfish Effect
Yang Mo's answer of "pretending to be crazy and acting stupid" at the press conference continued to ferment the incident of Ozil's broken leg.
Because the impact of this incident was too great, the FA imposed additional penalties very quickly. The inquiry ended on the 24th and the fine was announced on the afternoon of the 25th.
For Arsenal, the club was fined [-] pounds and the home stands were closed for one game.
The main reason for such heavy fines is not the players, but the riots of the fans in the stands accounted for a large part of the reason.
Another part of the reason is that after the riots, there was a large-scale racial discrimination against Yang Mo in the stands. Manchester City insisted on it, and repeated complaints were exposed. The FA could only punish him in this way under pressure.
Followed by Arsenal's players, Campbell Aguero was fined 4.5 pounds and banned for five games.
Bellerin, who kicked De Bruyne, was the most severely punished player in the Arsenal team, fined 8 pounds and banned for [-] games.
And the start of this riot, Ozil, who is still lying on the hospital bed at the moment, also did not escape punishment, a symbolic one-match ban and a fine of [-] pounds.
Everyone knows that this penalty means nothing to Ozil.
There are other Arsenal players who have also suffered penalties of varying severity, but most of them are financial, and the most serious one is only a one-match ban.
But even so, after Ozil was injured and nearly half of the main players were punished, Arsenal still suffered heavy losses!
However, the word miserable needs to be compared. Looking at the fines issued by the FA to Manchester City, Arsenal feel that they are actually fine.
First of all, the team was fined [-] pounds. This is just a drizzle for the local tycoon Manchester City, and it is mainly a penalty on the players.
Aguero, the first to do it, was suspended for five games for [-] pounds.
De Bruyne, who overthrew Campbell, was £[-] and was banned for nine games.
Kompany, who had just returned to the game after recovering from injury, went up for a fight and was hit. He was fined [-] pounds and suspended for three games.
Like Kompany, Kante was fined £[-] and banned for one match.
As for Yang Mo, although he never admitted that he was a malicious tackle from the beginning to the end, the FA still gave him a heavy penalty.
Banned for five matches and fined £[-].
The FA almost didn't say it clearly, boy, you think we are stupid, if you don't admit it, we can't see that you did it on purpose.
In addition to them, many others were fined, but they were not suspended.
The chairman of Manchester City announced immediately after the ticket was issued that all player fines will be borne by the club.
But even so, such a punishment is definitely a slap in the face for Manchester City, which has had a smooth start so far.
The starting central defender Kompany, the starting midfielder Kanter, the midfielder De Bruyne, the two starting forwards Aguero and Yang Mo.
From the backcourt to the frontcourt, most of the main players of the entire team cannot appear!
Kompany and Kanter are fine, with relatively few suspensions.
But the three most important players in the frontcourt were completely invisible in a short time.
But for Manchester City, the good news is that after playing Arsenal, their matches with the major teams in the first half are over.
During the suspension of a large number of main players, apart from Leicester City, which is third in the standings, Manchester City's opponents are only Everton who can give some trouble, and the rest are not strong teams.
However, the FA's penalty is still very exciting for those teams at the top of the standings.
Once Manchester City has problems during this period, it is a good opportunity for them to chase points.
The schedule is not over halfway, anything is possible.
On December 12, the second day after the FA announced the ban, Manchester City ushered in their first game after they were short of major generals. In the 26th round of the league, they played against Sunderland at home.
After the start of the game, it was obvious that Manchester City was a bit out of shape after being short of major generals.
In contrast, Sunderland played very hard.
This team in the relegation zone, which has just been swept by Chelsea with three goals in the game, seems to want to take advantage of Manchester City's "illness" to kill Manchester City and score three points.
However, sometimes God gives a chance, and there is nothing I can do if I don't live up to it.
At the end of the game in 10 minutes, Sunderland not only failed to win, but was turned over by Vardy and scored the only goal of the game.
With a one-goal advantage, Manchester City won the victory in a thrilling manner, and staggered to maintain their record of unbeaten league victories.
But for Manchester City, which is short of major generals, Sunderland is just an appetizer.
On December 12th, the last game of 30 and the final game of the first half of the Premier League, Manchester City ushered in Leicester City, which is third in the standings.
Although the main defensive midfielder Kanter ended the suspension and started the game, everyone felt that Manchester City was going to fall on this dark horse led by La Nieli.
But when the game ended, the result surprised everyone.
In this away game, Vardy, who became the starting striker after Yang Mo and Aguero became the starting striker, completely broke out against his old club.
A goal was scored before the end of the first half.
Although Leicester City pulled back a goal in the second half, Vardy scored twice with the second goal in the 73rd minute and kicked his old club into the abyss.
Although Vardy did not celebrate after scoring, his performance in this game really surprised everyone!
Seeing all this, Ancelotti began to wonder whether to learn from Barcelona's MSN combination and play as a three-forward.
But after thinking about the horrible schedule after the start of the FA Cup after the year, Ancelotti quickly dismissed this idea.
The two consecutive victories of the short-sufficient major general also defeated the third place in the standings. This result greatly boosted the morale of the Manchester City club and swept away all the haze hanging over Manchester City.
While Vardy became the team's new favorite with three goals in two games, he also took advantage of the suspension of Manchester City's striker to become famous in one fell swoop.
Everyone feels that such a striker is worthy of Manchester City's main position.
And Manchester City responded extremely quickly, and soon reached a new four-year contract with Vardy, and his salary rose sharply.
After the New Year's Eve, the first game in 2016, the 20th round of the league against the newly promoted Watford, proved that Manchester City's choice was correct.
Vardy, who scored the only goal in the game again, helped Manchester City win the three-game winning streak after being short of major generals, and continued to win all games, ranking first in the standings.
After this game, the second captain Kompany announced the lifting of the ban, and Manchester City's strength was further strengthened.
Everything seems to be moving in the right direction.
At this time, Manchester City ushered in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-finals, away against Toffee Everton.
No one expected that this game would develop in a direction that no one expected.
At the end of the game in 10 minutes, Manchester City failed to score a goal, but Everton scored two goals at home.
Vardy, who scored so many goals in the previous three games, suddenly misfired. Kompany seemed unable to adapt for a while after missing three games and reappeared. His performance was extremely poor. Both conceded goals were directly related to him.
In this way, Everton completed the goal that all the Premier League giants failed to complete this season, and beat Manchester City!
And this is also the first defeat for Manchester City since the start of the season.
At the most gratifying moment, Everton ruthlessly poured cold water on Manchester City.
But everyone in Manchester City didn't know that this was the beginning.
Two days later, Manchester City's FA Cup journey began.
Manchester City, who left Liverpool, hurried to Yorkshire to play an away game against Hull City, their first-round FA Cup opponent, from the British Championship.
Hull City is no stranger to Manchester City. In the previous quarter-finals of the League Cup, they had just played against each other and Manchester City won easily.
Even though the opponent is now at the top of the English Championship standings, for Manchester City, which is at the top of the Premier League, this team is still not a strong enemy, even if they are not well-staffed.
But no one expected that when the pizza was over, the biggest upset in British football this season broke out.
0-1.
Manchester City was knocked out by a Championship team in an away game!
In the locker room after the game, Ancelotti, who has always been kind, looked angry like a lion. Although he didn't care about the FA Cup, it didn't mean he was going to be eliminated like this.
"Who can tell me! What's going on with that number 26! Are you all fools? Watch him run wild in front of our penalty area like that!"
It's no wonder that Ancelotti was angry. Not only did the Manchester City players perform poorly in this game, but their attitude towards the game was even more irritating.
Vardy did perform well after Yang Mo left, and the comeback of Kompany and Kanter also stabilized the morale of the army, but these people lack the temperament of Yang Mo.
With his own strength and actions, he can suppress everyone's impatience and lead everyone to go forward.
The conceded goal that led to the defeat in this game was because Hull City's No. 26 left back made a mad dog press in the frontcourt, and then Manchester City's defensive superstars were indifferent, and finally the opponent found a chance to score a key goal.
In fact, it wasn't just the time when the ball was conceded. During the whole game, the opponent's No. 26 left-back was like a chicken blood, which perfectly set off the free and loose of the Manchester City team.
"What's the name of the opposing left-back?" Ancelotti asked the assistant coach.
"Andrew Robertson, 22 years old," the assistant coach replied.
"Help me tell Chairman Mubarak that I want this Robertson to appear in the Manchester City team during the winter break transfer."
Ancelotti finished speaking and looked at the big names of Manchester City.
He wanted to buy Robertson not because he liked the opponent's skills. On the contrary, the left back was not so good in terms of skills that he couldn't wait.
The reason why I bought it was to take advantage of this young man's desperate attitude to give some excitement to the group of bees without a queen in front of me.
There are always times when Yang Mo doesn't play, and there is always a "catfish" in the team.
As for whether it will succeed or not, he is not worried at all.
How could a Championship player refuse Manchester City's invitation.
As long as the players agree, it doesn't matter what Hull City's attitude is, and the big deal is liquidated damages.
After the game, the news of Manchester City's upset and elimination from the FA Cup instantly became the focus of heated discussions in British football, and it aroused heated discussions throughout Europe.
Accompanying it, Vardy, who played poorly in the two games, made things worse. After all, the British media is so pissed.
It is only the first time to encounter such a public opinion environment with ups and downs, and Vardy's mentality will inevitably be affected.
But there is another piece of news, which was not noticed by everyone in the discussions about Manchester City being upset and eliminated.
That is, the chairman of Hull City said that Manchester City used despicable and shameless means to take away the team's main left-back Robertson from Hull City, and he expressed his anger.
But it is a pity that no one cares about the mourning of the weak.
Even though the opponent had just eliminated Manchester City in an upset, in everyone's eyes, it was just an accident.
After all, Manchester City's main strikers were all absent in this game.
The unknown Robertson moved to Manchester City, and he couldn't make any splashes during the winter break.
Today is 3K, Ah Fatty, who has a rare day off, needs a good rest.Let's dig a Liverpool corner first.
