It Was a Shame They Had to Face Su Dong!

Crazy Man City!

After Man City defeated Chelsea 3–0 at home with Su Dong's hat trick, Sky Sports reported on the match immediately, giving Man City—and Su Dong in particular—extremely high praise.

As usual, Sky Sports rated every player who had taken part in the match after the final whistle.

Su Dong deservedly received a nine, the highest score among players from both teams.

Sky Sports' verdict on Su Dong was: "Man City's leader, with extraordinary scoring efficiency. He seized almost every opportunity to create danger."

That was the highest score and praise Sky Sports could give.

Within Man City, the player ranked behind Su Dong was Kompany.

The young Belgian center-back took second place with an eight, and his evaluation was also extremely high.

"A rock at the back. He did not miss a single opportunity to make a tackle."

For Kompany, who had faced Drogba in this match, that could practically be called the highest honor.

Over the past few years, let alone in the Premier League, even in Europe, who would not feel nervous when facing Drogba?

The Ivorian Elephant King had practically swept across Europe, becoming the nightmare of every defender.

Yet Kompany had held his own against Drogba, giving him no opportunities at all. As a result, Drogba was taken off early by Ancelotti in the second half because of his poor performance.

That was the best possible recognition for Kompany!

In Sky Sports' words, if Su Dong was the core who led Man City's attacks, then Kompany was the defensive pillar who kept Man City's goal safe. He had completely frozen Drogba, accomplishing a task that had seemed almost impossible.

Sky Sports believed that, with Vidić already beginning to decline, Kompany would become one of the outstanding defenders of the Premier League's new generation,
