LONDON, December 28, 2009 – Two out of two: the holidays bring six points to Roberto Mancini and The City. In the hope that on 6 January, in the Carling Cup derby, Ferguson and Epiphany is not taken away all the excitement. Another win, this time 3-0, in the dual commitment close.
The victim is Wolverhampton, the other team (as the adversary of Stoke debut), not just among the nobles of Premier, but that had created problems for Liverpool in the last round. Race was not too spectacular for the City, but it proves that you can hit when needed and keep clean sheets for the second time. Opens and closes Carlos Tevez, the author of eight goals in their last seven games played (including Carling Cup), and definitely a man more, waiting for Robinho, for this team. In between, at least three failed scoring chances by the same Tevez (1) and Bellamy (2) and the net on a free kick for Garrido, Spanish defender who had never played this year before arrival in England of former Inter Coach.
Lethal counterattack – “My teams play attack, whether at home or abroad. Only with good game to get to the victories.” This is not the case of reproach to Mancini sentence of the press conference of presentation: too early to give a philosophy of play to his city, too many three-goal margin to say nothing of a satisfactory race. The fact is that Wolves against the Italian team plays a technical game almost the entire defense and counterattack, using the qualities of speed and lungs from marathoners Bellamy. The initiative is often in the feet (rather rude, however) in Wolverhampton, which boasts one of the worst attacks of the entire Premier League, and which confirms the figure does not transform the pressure into a real opportunity (Doyle 17 ‘st, Given parade). Conversely, whenever the City faces in the court of attack becomes dangerous, thanks to a very high technical level.
The choices of left-handers – the failure is presented with the same scarf, which has earned him many headlines in tabloids, and with a similar formation to that of the debut: the defense is always an emergency, without the owners Lescott and Bridge: Zabaleta goes to make the left back, Richards played right, with Toure and Kompany in the middle. Bellamy found space in front, whose insurgency was more apparent than real: the Welsh takes the place of Robinho, cold and not exactly happy on the bench (and then on the field for the final 5 minutes). In midfield, Ireland off on the right side and does not enter much in the match (replaced after one hour), Petrov wide left and instead affect: he is the best discovery of this start-management Mancini. Now the technician can work a little ‘field in training: the next commitment is on 2 January, Middlesbrough (FA Cup), then January 6 challenge to Manchester United in the League Cup.2009, Mancini started late, but better could not go: fifth place, leapfrogging possible placement Champions.
