Chapter 56: Undefeated in nine rounds (Sixth update, please vote for me)

Liverpool's victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge was considered historic by the media after the game.

Because this means that there is no longer a team in England that can compete with Liverpool.

Arsenal, as a traditional giant and strong team, has inevitably declined. Wenger's coaching philosophy is a kind of enjoyment for people who like football, but for Arsenal fans, it is a kind of torture - after Arsenal fans have watched this kind of football for nearly twenty years , it will inevitably lead to boredom, and it is difficult to arouse their interest simply by relying on football.

Unfortunately, Arsenal is always unable to win a championship. Wenger is actually worried in his heart, but he is quite tough in his words, saying that he is committed to returning football to its roots, rather than those utilitarian things...

What he said sounded like an idealist, but the real world is a very tacky world. If you cannot succeed, then you are just a bear. It doesn't matter how noble your ideals are. Noble ideals cannot be eaten as food.

Therefore, it is the most unreliable idea to rely on Arsenal to stop Liverpool. They have not even straightened out their own affairs.

Not to mention the tragic team of Manchester City, Liverpool is simply their natural nemesis. They can beat Manchester United 6:1, but they cannot avoid being slaughtered by Liverpool 5:0.

Manchester United is the most likely to stop Liverpool, but last season's battle at Old Trafford made everyone see the old state of Ferguson and Manchester United. The soul of Manchester United is old, and the team will naturally also It won't be looked upon favorably.

Eight rounds into the new season, Manchester United is already five points behind Liverpool - in the eighth round of the league, Manchester United was tied 2:2 by Sunderland at their home court.

If Manchester United was five points behind Liverpool last season, there are still many people who believe that Manchester United can catch up or even overtake.

But after the game at Old Trafford last season, many people felt that even a five-point gap this season said a lot.

In the final analysis, it was Manchester United's fault for losing to Liverpool at home. In the past three seasons, except for the season that just ended, in the other two seasons, Liverpool failed to get any good results when they challenged Manchester United away from home and lost them all.

If it hadn't been for that game last season, the Rebel flag would have been flying high over Manchester United's Old Trafford.

You must know that they have always been the leaders against Liverpool...

Unexpectedly, Old Trafford was captured by Liverpool, and the leader of the resistance was killed by Liverpool and his body was missing.

As I said before, Manchester United's failure at home seems to be a watershed mark. Since then, the Manchester United dynasty that has ruled the Premier League for 21 years has come to an end step by step. The old aristocrat Liverpool has taken the opportunity to recover and is pressing forward step by step to completely end the Manchester United dynasty. And Manchester United just stepped on the corpse of Liverpool and ascended to the throne.

What a cycle of heaven...

Maybe ten or twenty years from now, Manchester United will be restored, knock Liverpool down again, and they will regain the throne?

※ ※ ※

After the eighth round of the league, the Premier League entered a short truce period, and the national team games debuted.

The No. 1 training ground at the Melwood training base became empty again. Chen Yingxiong, who had no national team competition duties, was training with the reserve team and youth team.

He doesn't have to be bored, because he is also a star in the second-tier team and is very popular - after last season, this season's FA Cup and this season's League Cup, Chen Yingxiong and these players from Liverpool's second-tier team They are all familiar with each other.

And they discovered that Chen Yingxiong was not as arrogant and unapproachable as outside rumors and they thought.

They found that Chen Yingxiong was a very easy to contact person. This is because they have a good impression of Chen Yingxiong - he is not only a superb player, but also a good character.

Such people are welcome wherever they go!

At this time, the most disappointed people in the Melwood training base are undoubtedly the Chinese reporters.

On national team match day, the focus of everyone's discussion shifts from club events to the national team.

There are also a lot fewer reporters at Melwood, and they are all paying attention to the performance of Liverpool players in the national team games.

Only Chinese reporters are still here.

Listening to the poor performance of the national team from China, everyone is inevitably a little sad.

Listening to the laughter coming from the training ground from time to time, and looking at the bright smile on Chen Yingxiong's face, some people couldn't help but complain: "How can the hero be so happy... It seems that he doesn't care about the national team's games at all." Same."

Someone next to him said to him: "Of course, the Football Association treats him so much, why do you still care about the national team's games? I wouldn't care about the national team if it were me!"

"The Football Association is doing their own fault! They just refuse to humble themselves and apologize to the heroes. It's their own problem. The heroes only ask them to apologize, which is already very generous... They say Jin Shang is a fan, why haven't he come out to deal with it? Those grandsons from the General Administration of Sports?"

"What's going on today?"

"you know!"

"Oh oh oh! I understand! But the General Administration of Sports is not easy to deal with. They can win gold medals in the Olympics and Asian Games..."

"Alas, if football cannot win gold medals, it will be useless in the eyes of those officials..."

Chen Yingxiong trains with reserve team and youth team players, which is really nothing to watch.

A group of Chinese reporters also had time to chat together and express their feelings about the current situation of Chinese football.

They are all convinced that if Chen Yingxiong can return to the national team, not to mention that the Chinese team can become the best in Asia, but at least it will not be as depressing as it is now. The famous Spanish coach Camacho led the Chinese team to compete in the World Cup in Brazil. As a result, he did not even make it to the top ten in the Asian region of the Brazilian World Cup qualifiers, and finally left China in despair. The Chinese Football Association was deceived into taking away a large amount of money, and in the end it was all in vain. Of course, this money was provided by Renwanda Group, and they didn't care. But this is equivalent to wasting another four years of the lives of Chinese football and fans.

Have they never settled this account properly?

Or do they no longer care what the fans think?

Many people feel that if the Football Association is willing to put down its pretensions and sincerely invite Chen Yingxiong, the Chinese team will at least have a chance to compete in the World Cup finals.

It would be better now to leave such a good person alone and let him wander alone in a foreign country...

As soon as this was mentioned, everyone became angry and angry.

"Everyone, let's learn from heroes and keep this matter in perspective. Don't you see that heroes don't mention the national team anymore?" An older colleague came out to remind everyone.

Only then did everyone come out of their anger and unwillingness.

Some people looked at Chen Yingxiong joking with his teammates on the training ground, shook their heads and sighed.

But he said nothing more.

※ ※ ※

time flies. In the blink of an eye, the national team match day is over, and the international players have returned to their respective clubs.

The league in full swing has started again.

Considering that many international players have only played two national team games, and after playing this league, they will play in the Champions League group stage in the middle of next week. The opponent is Marseille, who is currently ranked second in the group. Martin O'Neill plans to play in the next Liverpool made a substantial rotation in their away game against Sunderland. Except for Chen Yingxiong, basically all other starting players have entered the rest list.

In the end, Liverpool, this rotation, reached a 2:2 draw with Sunderland in the away game.

Sunderland drew with Manchester United 2:2 in the last round of the league, and this round tied with Liverpool by the same score.

But no one is saying that Liverpool's progress is being stopped.

Because Liverpool and Sander tied in this game, it was really due to bad luck.

They fired a total of thirty-five shots in the game, twelve of which hit the goal frame, but only scored two goals. Sunderland's goalkeeper Mignoti was like he was on drugs in this game. He played bravely and blocked several shots from Liverpool that would have scored.

In the end, the Belgian goalkeeper was named Man of the Match.

Although Chen Yingxiong scored one goal in the game and assisted another goal by his teammates, he could only be ranked second.

Liverpool's eight-game winning streak was ended.

However, this incident did not have any impact on the Liverpool players. Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. We are all professional players. What is unacceptable about this? Besides, this is just a draw, not a defeat. And they performed really well in the game, but they were just unlucky. There is no way to solve the problem of luck, and it is useless to blame others. It is better to accept the result calmly.

It is very important for professional players to self-regulate their psychological emotions, otherwise a failure in a game will crush them. No matter how sad you are, if you cry loudly after the game, a smile will appear on your face again in two days and a new life will begin. They don't look like fans. Fans can feel sad all week if their team loses. After all, football occupies a very important position in the lives of fans, but in the hearts of players, this may not be the case...

Martin O'Neill didn't care about being tied by Sunderland in the away game. What he cared about more was that Chen Yingxiong was in good form and had a goal and an assist in the game.

Then Liverpool will face Marseille in the Champions League group stage at home.

If Liverpool can win Marseille, then there will be little suspense about qualifying as the first in a group ahead of schedule. Because Marseille is now the most promising opponent to compete with Liverpool for first place in the group. The two teams are now tied with six points. When the points are the same, let's first compare the mutual victory and defeat. Direct dialogue between Liverpool and Marseille is very important.

If they can defeat Marseille, they will have an advantage in the battle for first place in the group.

For this reason, Martin O'Neill rested the main players of the team and was tied by Sunderland. That is not something worth mentioning...

At that time, Liverpool's main players, who have received sufficient rest time in this game, will give Marseille an impressive meeting ceremony for the guests at Anfield Stadium.
