Chapter 263: Only Liverpool Dare (First update guaranteed)

Although Martin O'Neill is worried about the reserve team playing in the League Cup and FA Cup, he has to admit that Chen Yingxiong's method provides the team with a lot of convenience. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple

The biggest contribution is naturally to avoid the team fighting on two fronts and being exhausted. Not to mention the physical exertion, it also greatly increases the chance of injury.

Take a look at the first game against Reading. If the first-team players come up, they can win the game easily, but they may anger Reading and injure the players. For Liverpool's first team, which is destined to fight on multiple fronts, any player is a treasure.

No one can be hurt.

So in any case, the reserve team has helped the first team a lot and reduced the pressure on the first team. Even if a player from the reserve team is injured, it is still better than a player from the first team being injured.

For example, now, the league match with Arsenal is about to begin. If in the previous League Cup, one or two players in the first team were injured, Martin O'Neill would have a headache.

Now, thanks to the help of the reserve team, Liverpool's first team can challenge Arsenal away from home with the most complete lineup. And they didn't play in the League Cup midweek, so there's no problem with their physical strength at all.

Unlike Arsenal, although Arsenal also sent some youth team and reserve team players, half of the first-team players also participated in the League Cup.

When Liverpool first started to implement this model, there were other teams who wanted to follow suit. Because everyone thinks this is a good thing that can not only train the reserve team, but also allow the first team to get more rest.

But many teams just started to implement this model and found that it didn't work at all. What is a bright road for Liverpool is a dead end for other teams.

Because they don’t have Chen Yingxiong. The reserve team was able to win the championship, and Chen Yingxiong was indispensable. And only those in the Liverpool reserve team know that Chen Yingxiong’s greatest use for the reserve team is not just reflected on the court.

Without the most critical figure, their reserve team may be able to break into the third, fourth, or even fifth round, but they are very far away from the championship.

Unless they don't want the championship, they just want to use it to train the reserve team and youth team.

But which team needs to be rotated, the first team needs to rest, and the reserve team needs to accumulate experience, which is not a wealthy team that longs for a championship? Those sports teams may not be able to obtain official troops. ""

This becomes a paradox.

In the end, there were only a few teams that could really persist in using the reserve team.

Only Liverpool can succeed.

※※※

In the last League Cup, Arsenal, like Liverpool, also played away from home, but their opponents were much stronger than Birmingham.

Their opponent is Everton.

Even though Everton has never had the upper hand when playing against Liverpool, they are still a tough nut to crack in the entire Premier League.

It would be a big mistake to judge Everton's strength only from the Merseyside derby. This team always fails to win the Merseyside derby just because Liverpool is too strong. You can't beat Liverpool, but you can beat other teams.

Everton also knows very well that it will be difficult for them to get a European spot for next season in the Premier League with so many strong players, so they have invested heavily in the League Cup and FA Cup, hoping to use a cup champion. Send them to the Europa League.

As a result, Arsenal will encounter greater pressure than Liverpool in the League Cup.

So they expend more energy.

In fact, this is also true.

Arsenal and Everton fought hard for ninety minutes. The two teams only scored one goal. In the end, Arsenal defeated Everton with a score of 1:0.

The so-called difficulty is because Everton fought very tenaciously at their home court.

Arsenal finally eliminated Everton with Wilshere's goal, but he also paid a heavy price.

First of all, goal hero Wilshere was injured in the game and will be out until after Christmas.

Secondly, Miyaichi Ryo received two yellow cards during the game and was sent off with a red card. Arsenal is appealing to the FA Disciplinary Committee on his behalf. In fact, their appeal has no basis. The evidence for Miyaichi Ryo's two yellow cards is conclusive and there is no problem at all. Arsenal's appeal is obviously to delay time and let Miyaichi Ryo Able to catch up with the game against Liverpool. church

When their appeal fails, Miyaichi will face more suspensions, which cannot be solved in one or two games.

But Arsenal couldn't care less, because Liverpool was obviously a bigger opponent, and they would do whatever it took to deal with this powerful enemy.

※※※

Arsenal's appeal allowed Miyaichi to successfully appear in the match against Liverpool. Now that Van Persie is old, Miyaichi is Arsenal's main offensive weapon.

He was also successfully transformed by Wenger from a wide player into an all-around scorer in the wing. Miyaichi Ryo is relatively thin, but he is fast and flexible, which allows him to gain the upper hand when facing those bulky and tall defenders.

Liverpool's center backs are Pepe and Skrtel. Pepe likes to advance aggressively. Skrtel is huge and slow to turn, which can be restrained by using flexibility.

So Ryo Miyaichi will be a key figure in this game.

The key figure on Arsenal's side is Ryo Miyaichi, and on Liverpool's side it's Chen Yingxiong.

Therefore, this game is also called the "Asian Derby" or the "China-Japan Derby" by the Asian media.

It has to be said that although China has produced Chen Yingxiong, in terms of the overall level of football, Japan is the leader in Asian football today, and even Australia cannot compete with them.

This can be seen from the large number of overseas players. A large number of Japanese players play in European, Brazilian and other leagues. They are the fruits and seeds of Japanese football's centenary plan.

They represent the highest level of Japanese football. In many European teams, Japanese players are the main players. Even in some wealthy teams, such as Arsenal and Manchester United, Japanese players play a core role. This is true for Ryo Miyaichi at Arsenal and Shinji Kagawa at Manchester United.

So if we look at it as a whole, there is no dispute that Chinese football has suffered a complete defeat and has been thrown out of the water by Japanese football.

But the problem is that this game is not a collision of the overall level of football between China and Japan, but a duel between two players.

In terms of individual combat capabilities, none of the registered players in Japan can compare with Chen Yingxiong.

Miyaichi Liang is very aware of the strength of himself and Chen Yingxiong. Before the game, those Asian media - mainly the media from China and Japan - were hyping up the Sino-Japanese showdown between himself and Chen Yingxiong. However, Miyaichi Liang was Throw cold water on the blow.

"Hero is a very good player and I admire him very much. There is no competition between us... I just want to help the team win games. I know it is difficult, but this is not a reason to give up."

He didn't fall for the reporters. He knew the consequences of irritating Chen Yingxiong. Arsenal had played against Liverpool in recent years. As both East Asian players, he usually paid more attention to Chen Yingxiong, so he naturally knew what kind of temper this person was.

If it makes him unhappy, he is afraid that both Arsenal and himself will be destroyed.

It’s better to keep a low profile before the game.

Chen Yingxiong is also very dismissive of this "China-Japan Derby" in the media.

"My opponent is Arsenal, not Japan." A simple sentence showed his arrogance to the fullest and made many Japanese reporters look bad on the spot.

But Chen Yingxiong didn't bother to pay attention to their mood. He was not his compatriots or his fans, so why was he so polite to them?

He has never been a fan of reporters, let alone Japanese reporters.

※※※

Miya Shiliang is modest on the surface, but in fact he is still very competitive in his heart. He does not want to directly confront Chen Yingxiong. He intends to defeat Chen Yingxiong in a curve by helping Arsenal defeat Liverpool.

For example, as long as you perform well in the game and are the direct and biggest contributor to the team's victory, while Chen Yingxiong's performance is average, you can suppress Chen Yingxiong.

This is easier and more convenient than competing directly with Chen Yingxiong.

But he was still too naive...

Liverpool is going all out and Chen Yingxiong is in hot form. How can Arsenal compete with this?

Even at home...

They can't stop the Red Army!

Only nine minutes into the game, Liverpool took advantage of a corner kick and Chen Yingxiong scored with a header, opening the door to victory for the team.

Van Persie was helpless, but Miyaichi was suppressed by Liverpool's defense.

When Wilshere was injured, Arsenal lost the core of their midfield. Without the core of the midfield, their offense seemed unstructured.

How can we beat Liverpool, who are in high morale like this?

After Chen Yingxiong opened the scoring for Liverpool, the rhythm of the game entered the track that Liverpool is best at and likes most.

Next, Liverpool shrinks its defense.

Arsenal was forced to attack only, while Liverpool comfortably played a defensive counterattack - this is what they like most, but what their opponents hate most.

But who allows them to always score first? The team that scores first is eligible to use this tactic, unless you can score earlier than them.

※※※

After Liverpool shrank its defense, Chen Yingxiong was alone in front, looking a little lonely and pitiful.

But no matter whether it is the fans in the stands, the audience in front of the TV, or the commentators and reporters, they will not think that Chen Yingxiong is really "isolated" at this time.

Once Liverpool's quick counterattack tactics are launched, the players can press forward quite quickly.

Chen Yingxiong does not need to stand in front for too long and can immediately gain the support of a large number of players.

Especially the two wingers led by Sanchez and Gareth Bale, who are fast, have good footwork and have strong awareness of pressing forward. As long as the football is sent to the frontcourt, they rush forward without hesitation. They absolutely believe in Chen Yingxiong's ability and believe that he can control the football in the frontcourt without worrying about rushing forward only to find that the ball is lost. It is precisely because of Chen Yingxiong's excellent offensive bridgehead that Liverpool's rapid counterattack can be launched.

This tactic is neither subtle nor complex, let alone innovative. It simply makes full use of Chen Yingxiong's characteristics. Other teams may be able to do better than them, but they don't have Chen Yingxiong, so everything can only stay in their imagination and fantasy.

Many teams' quick counterattacks are only halfway through, because the frontcourt cannot control the ball, and the opponent makes a counterattack, and finally loses the ball. So these teams began to become less aggressive.

Only Liverpool dares because they have the invincible Chen Yingxiong!
