„Nicht clever genug!“ – Pep rasiert eigenen 62-Mio-Star

Article arrow_drop_down

Eine eindeutige Ansage!

Beim 0:0 gegen Stadt-Rivale Manchester United startete erneut Matheus Nunes (26) auf der rechten Abwehrseite von Manchester City.

Der portugiesische Nationalspieler (16 Länderspiele, zwei Treffer) ist eigentlich im Mittelfeld beheimatet, wurde 2023 für die stolze Ablöse von 62 Millionen Euro auch als Verstärkung für diese Position von den Wolverhampton Wanderers verpflichtet.

[–>Offenbar traut ihm Trainer Pep Guardiola eine Rolle in der Man-City-Zentrale aber nicht zu. Nach dem Derby sprach der Katalane über Nunes. Und fand dabei deutliche Worte!

Der Coach: „Er kann ein guter Rechtsverteidiger werden, weil er körperlich stark ist. Ich denke, er ist kein Spieler, der im Mittelfeld spielen kann, weil er nicht clever genug ist und nicht die nötige Ruhe hat.“ Nicht clever genug für das Mittelfeld – eine harte Abrechnung mit dem eigenen Profi.

Zumindest die Rolle des Rechtsverteidigers scheint Nunes aber passabel auszufüllen. Seit dem Winter-Weggang von Kyle Walker (34, zur AC Milan) absolvierte er bereits elf Pflichtspiel-Einsätze auf dieser Position.

Guardiola: „Er hat unglaubliche Fähigkeiten und er lernt viel.“

Und weiter: „Außenverteidiger machen immer einen großen Fehler. Wenn eine Flanke an den Pfosten kommt, wo sie sind, schlafen sie immer. Aber er hat zwei oder drei Flanken von Fernandes und Dorgu (beide Man-United-Profis, Anm. d. Red.) sehr gut verteidigt. Er hat die nötige Physis, er kann diese Position spielen und hat uns sehr geholfen.“

Durch das 0:0 im Derby bleibt Man City auf dem fünften Tabellenplatz der Premier League und muss weiter um die Teilnahme an der Champions League bangen.

Sollten die Citizens die Königsklasse verpassen, wären sie das erste Mal seit der Saison 2010/11 nicht in Europas prestigeträchtigstem Wettbewerb vertreten. Das will Pep auch mithilfe von Nunes in den kommenden Wochen verhindern.

Tom Brady Dishes Out Praise for Ray Lewis: ‘The Ultimate Competitior’

Jaylin Noel dared to do something Tom Brady would've never done in the Houston Texans' blowout victory over the Baltimore Ravens. After scoring his first career touchdown, the Texans' rookie wide receiver did Ray Lewis' squirrel dance, upsetting members of the Ravens' defense. In the latest edition of "Storytime with Tom Brady," the seven-time Super Bowl winner shared how he strayed away from doing things like that against the Ravens during his career, specifically Lewis. "I was definitely never going to get anywhere close to Ray," Brady said of the Ravens' iconic linebacker. "He was a tough man. I never was going to pick any fights with anybody out there, but I was going to instigate something and get the hell out of the way before I got my ass kicked."Brady and Lewis had a pretty fierce rivalry over their Hall of […]

Thursday Night Football: Philadelphia Eagles-New York Giants betting preview (odds, lines, best bets)

Brian Daboll’s Giants are no strangers to being home underdogs: Since hiring Daboll as head coach in 2022, the Giants have been the betting underdog in MetLife Stadium 23 times. That’s the most by any active head coach over that span. Cam Skattebo’s impact in the receiving game: The first-year running back has ample opportunity to leave his mark on this matchup amid a slew of injuries to the Giants' pass-catchers. This makes his 2.5 receptions line very attainable. Game Overview We kick off Week 6 with an NFC East showdown between the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles, fresh off their first loss of the 2025 season, and a Giants team looking to build momentum behind its young core. This matchup has been lopsided in recent years, with Philadelphia dominating the rivalry. Since Brian Daboll took over as head coach in […]
