Volume 1: Males Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 71: Doing the Right Thing Out of Habit (Fourth Update, Please Vote for Me)

Chapter 71: Doing the Right Habit (Fourth update, please vote for me)

The national team match day is over, and the international players have returned to their clubs one after another. O'Neal can finally gather his troops to practice tactics.

At the same time, we are also preparing for the next two tough battles.

But if everyone knows that he treats these two teams as strong enemies to prepare for the game, I'm afraid many people will laugh out loud.

Manchester City may be a strong enemy to other teams, but standing in front of Liverpool, I am afraid that even they themselves do not have the confidence to say that they are a strong enemy of Liverpool - everyone has seen them being beaten by Liverpool at their home court. :5’s “strong enemy”? Have you ever seen a "strong enemy" who was reversed and won 4:3 by Liverpool at their home court? Have you ever seen a "strong enemy" that has not defeated Liverpool in the three seasons so far?

So to say that they are a strong enemy of Liverpool... No matter how thick-skinned the Manchester City people are, they cannot say such things.

What about Everton?

I can't stand up in front of Liverpool no matter what.

The media has said before that today's Merseyside derby has become the most boring and least suspenseful city derby in the world. Derby, which used to be the most popular in England, has now become one-sided with the strength of Liverpool. Even many Everton players have begun to learn to accept this fact - the results of two city derbies cannot be used as a basis for evaluating the school team's performance in a season. The derby must be separated from the league. But it’s not that the derby is more important than the league. On the contrary, the league is now more important than the derby...

Maybe this fact will make many Everton fans unhappy, but it is the fact. Whether they want it or not, they have to accept this fact.

But the outside world can ridicule that Manchester City and Everton are no longer Liverpool's enemies, but Martin O'Neill cannot think like this. He even has to imagine that his opponents are very powerful. Because he is a head coach, he himself cannot underestimate the enemy first. Liverpool was once tied by Sunderland. Manchester City and Everton are better than Sunderland, right?

So it's always a good idea to be cautious.

On November 21st, the first game of the thirteenth round of the league kicked off between Liverpool and Manchester City.

The only strong dialogue in this round of the league is actually arranged in the first game, which is relatively rare. Generally speaking, it is arranged at the last scene, especially at ** o'clock in the evening. This is in the interest of television broadcasting, because that is the prime time for television broadcasting.

Perhaps, judging from this schedule, even the TV station does not consider this game to be the "highlight of this round"...

Although the outside world did not think that Manchester City would be Liverpool's opponent, Manchester City still had a fight with Liverpool before the game.

Even if they knew that this trip to Anfield would be dangerous, Manchester City was unwilling to admit defeat in front of Liverpool in advance, and they still had a tough mouth.

This is the power of hatred.

Just like when Barcelona dominated La Liga and dominated the world, Real Madrid was still unwilling to admit defeat even though they knew they were losing. Even if they were outplayed by the opponent during the game, they could never let go before the game. If anyone is timid, just wait to be kicked out of the house.

In a football match, you can’t lose anything but the momentum, you can lose people or the ball, but you can’t lose the formation!

Kompany, the captain of Manchester City, the central defender and the main defender of Chen Yingxiong, jumped out to attack Chen Yingxiong.

"Yes, he can score a lot of goals, but no matter how many goals he scores, so what? In my heart, his status will never be as high as that of a player like Messi! Messi has both strength and humility. Such a player , is the real number one star in world football!" the Manchester City captain said in an interview.

Chen Yingxiong responded: "I am really worried about Messi because Kompany is in my heart...Actually, what I want to say is that the gap between you two is too big and it is really inappropriate..."

Lavezzi: "I played with him in Naples, and I have to say that his character is really not that good! Relying on the fact that he was deeply loved by the team owner, he not only kicked me out, but also squeezed out Naples. Coach Rhea, the hero of our promotion! Such a person can only rely on the support from the top no matter where he goes..."

I have to say that Manchester City really has the genes of Chen Yingxiong's rival, because they always make some moves that go against Chen Yingxiong.

Before, they tried to protect Richards, but later sent him away. This summer, they bought Argentinian Lavezzi from Juventus, who had never dealt with Chen Yingxiong in Naples...

Chen Yingxiong is simply disgusted to death.

Ravitch, Chen Yingxiong's former defeated general, jumped out to raise old scores, and Chen Yingxiong was not polite and ridiculed him.

"Being able to have a good relationship with the top management shows that I am capable. Since when has it become a point to be complacent about being popular? The fact is that after he left, Naples won many championships, and he When I was here, there wasn’t a single championship.”

Manchester City's head coach Mancini did not stand up to express his dissatisfaction with Chen Yingxiong: "A player should first focus on things on the football field. Chen Yingxiong uses too much energy off the field."

Chen Yingxiong immediately retorted: "A head coach should focus on things on the football field first. Otherwise, why couldn't he win the league championship for three consecutive years?"

These words are really vicious. It's like using a knife to open Mancini's wound, and then sprinkle a handful of salt, a handful of cumin, a handful of chili powder on it...

Before this game, other Liverpool players were asked not to participate in the war of words, leaving the battlefield to Chen Yingxiong, allowing him to give full play to his ability to fight with others.

Chen Yingxiong lived up to expectations, attracting all the hatred and energy in Manchester City to himself, without affecting any other Liverpool players.

When Chen Yingxiong singled out the entire Manchester City, the Liverpool players could prepare for the game with peace of mind. Although there were many reporters around Melwood, these people were all here for Chen Yingxiong. Unless you can't stand the loneliness and insist on it. Jump out and actively draw fire—in jargon, this behavior is called "ot."

Fortunately, Chen Yingxiong, as the team's mt and the team leader, has a high prestige, so no one is currently malicious.

In this way, while fighting a war of words, the game against Manchester City ushered in.

In the starting list announced by both sides before the game, Manchester City's Lavezzi was clearly on the list.

Everyone is waiting to see the show.

From the handshake before the game, everyone could already see how intense the passion between the two was - Lavezzi turned a blind eye to Chen Yingxiong, and Chen Yingxiong didn't want to shake hands with him at all.

A person walked directly in front of Chen Yingxiong, as if the person in front of him was a ball of air.

One person's hands hang naturally by his sides, with no intention of raising them to shake hands with the other person.

The reporters in the media gallery were immediately excited: "It seems that the grievances between Ravitch and Chen Yingxiong must be no less than that between Chen Yingxiong and Richards!"

"That's great! After Richards left, I still had a headache about how to write about the game between Liverpool and Manchester City! Now I'm not afraid anymore, we have a new topic!"

"Lavezzi has really decisively taken up the mantle left by Richards and fought against Chen Yingxiong to the end! The future games of these two teams will be interesting to watch... I now hope that the Argentine can stay in Manchester City for a few more years. season!"

The commentator was particularly excited when he saw this scene: "Manchester City finally grandly launched the second person of their disgusting hero - Lavezzi!!"

"The two of them are fighting before the game even starts. When the game starts, I don't know what the fight will be like!"

For a time, the commentators, reporters, as well as the fans in the stands and the audience in front of the TV, everyone began to look forward to the start of a good show.

※※※

But it’s not quite what everyone expected…

For those looking for a good show, this is definitely not a good show.

Liverpool can be tied by Sunderland or Newcastle, no problem, but if they meet a team from Manchester, they must win.

The hatred between Liverpool and Manchester United is related to the two cities. And in Manchester City, it's more than just a team. It can even be said that, in a sense, Manchester City is more representative of this city than Manchester United, because they are the native owners of this city, and Manchester United is just an outsider. Back then, we were struggling in Newton Heath and could no longer survive. Finally, we had enough of the Manchester City stars and came to Manchester to compete with Manchester City for territory. Therefore, the hatred between Manchester City and Manchester United was quite high.

At the same time, it can also be explained that Manchester City is the true representative of Manchester.

The grievances between the two cities of Liverpool and Manchester are not unjust at all when they fall on the two teams of Liverpool and Manchester City.

Now that Liverpool is proud and in good shape, how can they lose to Manchester City at home?

They even defeated Manchester United at home, can they still lose to Manchester City?

As soon as the game started, Liverpool launched a storm-like offensive, which was in line with Liverpool's characteristics - attacking!

All of Liverpool's tactics are designed around scoring goals quickly, so Liverpool's offense after the opening is very simple. They rarely make cross passes and back passes in a small area. If there are cross passes, they are mostly long and wide passes. The pass transfer makes full use of the width of the court to mobilize the opponent's defense.

There are a lot of through balls. Whether it is from Gotze's feet, Gerrard's feet, or other players, they are all required to pass as many through balls as possible.

This kind of ball can reach the opponent's goal in the fastest and most direct way, creating the most opportunities for Chen Yingxiong.

Of course, this tactic also has disadvantages, that is, the success rate is not high, and many through balls are wasted.

This is why Martin O'Neill is chasing Gotzele. In his opinion, Gotze is the midfielder who can complete the task of passing the ball. In this way, Gerrard can be liberated, allowing Gerrard to concentrate on defense, and the two of them can form a midfield iron gate with Inler. Although Gerrard is getting older and his physical fitness is not as good as before, he is rich in experience and is becoming more sophisticated in position selection when defending. If your physical strength is not as good as before, then focus on defense and less on offense. If he only defends, Gerrard is still a world-class midfielder.

Coupled with Inler, Liverpool's midfield defensive interception ability is actually quite strong.

There is another way to ensure the success rate of through balls, which is not to block the gap, but to block the feet of Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong's post-up skills are very good. Even if his back is turned to the opponent's goal and the football falls at his feet, he can still threaten the opponent's goal.

There are so many guarantees, which is why Liverpool's attacking tactics always succeed...

The same goes for this game.
