Reject Guardiola and give up participating in the Club World Cup! Manchester City s 22-year-old star now leads England to the finals

On June 28, Manchester City is preparing for the knockout round of the Club World Cup. They are the only team in the top 32 of the Club World Cup to win three consecutive games in the group stage, and the top 16 opponent is Riyadh Crescent. Manchester City's talented young player James McCarthy did not play in this summer's Club World Cup, but chose to play in the European Youth League against England U21, and his choice attracted attention. Reject Guardiola and give up participating in the Club World Cup! Manchester City's 22-year-old star now leads England to the finals.

England will compete with Germany for the European Youth Championship. Before this final, McCarthy was interviewed and asked about not participating in the Club World Cup. In response, McCarty said: "I have no regrets about my decision to participate in the U21 European Youth Championship rather than the Club World Cup. I am very happy to be in the European Youth Championship. My focus is here, not the Club World Cup."

Last season, McCarty played 27 times for Manchester City's first team, with only 9 starting opportunities. He scored 7 goals and performed well. If McCarty chooses to follow head coach Guardiola to go to the Club World Cup, McCarthy's name will naturally be on Manchester City's roster. But McCarthy didn't do this. He went to the England U21 team to register for the European Youth Championship.

England team eliminated Spain 3-1 in the quarterfinals, defeated the Netherlands 2-1 in the semi-finals, and McCarthy scored 1 goal and assisted 1 time in this match. England lost 1-2 to Germany in the group stage and they look forward to revenge in the finals. In this European Youth Championship, the German team won all five games, with well-known young players such as Walter Mad and Knauf in the team. In addition to McCarthy, England also has talented players such as Elliott, Envanelli, and Quanza.

If McCarty follows Manchester City to play in the Club World Cup, he is likely to spend the bench, because Manchester City has introduced Reindes and Serky this summer, making the team's midfield competition more intense, and McCarty's playing time is further compressed. But in the England U21 team, McCarthy is the No. 10 team, a core player or captain, and his status is completely different.

Instead of sitting on the bench and basking in the sun in the Club World Cup, it is better to further prove your strength and increase your popularity in the European Youth Championship. McCarthy's choice is wise. In recent years, many excellent Manchester City youth training players have chosen to leave, such as Palmer, Rodgers and others. Manchester City's youth training is strong, but it often completes large-scale signings in the transfer market. The team's internal competition is cruel. Youth training players like McCarthy have no guarantee of playing time, and leaving the team is a high probability of result (currently worth 20 million euros).
