Volume One: Heroes Appear, People Pay Attention Chapter 287 The Reserve Team Full of Vitality (Guaranteed Second Update)

Chapter 287: The Reserve Team Full of Vitality (Second Update Guaranteed)

A week later, Liverpool welcomed their opponent in the 24th round of the league, Chelsea, at home.

After 23 rounds of the league, Chelsea ranked third, with striker Hulk indispensable. He scored 18 goals in the league, ranking second in the scorer list after Chen Yingxiong.

But for Hulk, this is really not an achievement worth showing off.

Because the gap between him and Chen Yingxiong is too obvious, this second place means that he has lost the opportunity and hope to compete for the Golden Boot.

He scored eighteen goals, which is a remarkable achievement for a normal human being.

But for Chen Yingxiong, it was not enough.

Because Chen Yingxiong has scored forty goals in twenty-three league rounds!

That's twenty-two more than Hulk!

Such a huge advantage makes everyone feel frustrated.

While others were still struggling on the ground, Chen Yingxiong had already broken through the limits of the earth and rushed into outer space.

The first meeting between the two sides this season took place at Stamford Bridge, with Liverpool challenging Chelsea away. The score of that game was 4:2, and the winner was Liverpool.

Hulk performed well in the game and scored twice, but he couldn't resist Chen Yingxiong's hat trick...

Whether it was the team's performance or the personal competition between the two shooters, Hulk was completely defeated by Chen Yingxiong.

In this game at Anfield, Chelsea had no chance.

Hulk didn't score a single goal at all. He is frozen by Pepe and Skrtel.

Chen Yingxiong is like a fish in water. Another goal helped Liverpool win Chelsea 2:0.

After twenty-four rounds of the league, Liverpool still tops the list and remains unbeaten. -< >-Net.

Some media have already speculated whether Liverpool will win the championship with an unbeaten record this season.

In fact, their advantage is indeed huge now.

Winning the championship seemed to have lost its suspense, so everyone focused on "winning the championship undefeated".

After 24 rounds of the league, Chelsea ranked third with 51 points, and Arsenal ranked fourth with 46 points, which was significantly behind the top three.

Manchester United is second in the league with 57 points. As many as six points ahead of Chelsea.

But in front of Liverpool, neither Chelsea nor Manchester United are enough.

Liverpool's points now are...seventy points! As much as thirteen points higher than Manchester United!

The league has only played twenty-four rounds, and Liverpool has accumulated 70 points!

This has never happened in any previous season. Since the establishment of the Premier League, no team has been able to accumulate so many points in twenty-four league rounds!

Why are you so sure?

Because Liverpool's unbeaten run included 23 wins and only one draw. It is completely different from other undefeated records where most of them are draws.

Except for being tied 3:3 by Manchester United in the away game, Liverpool won all other games!

The last team to win the title with an unbeaten season was Arsenal, who won twenty-six of thirty-eight games and drew as many as twelve.

It was also the twenty-fourth round of the league, when Arsenal won 17 games and drew seven. They are only two points ahead of second-placed Manchester United.

How can Liverpool be as domineering as today's Liverpool?

If this situation continues, Liverpool may really win the championship with an undefeated record. If they hadn't been tied by Manchester United in an away game, people even believed that Liverpool would have the ability to "win the championship"!

If that were the case, it would be amazing...

"For all Premier League teams, Liverpool has quickly become a behemoth, and no one can shake them. (-< >-Net.) Chelsea, third in the league, is like a newly promoted team in front of Liverpool. No resistance. I think fans of other Premier League teams should start to learn to accept this reality - the game against Liverpool is two different games from other Premier League games. There is no shame or anger in losing to Liverpool whether it is at home or away. Yes, as long as we can win other leagues..."

Some media said this after the game, which made people even more impressed by Liverpool's current strength.

Four days after the league match with Chelsea, Liverpool ushered in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals.

The League Cup semi-finals are different from the FA Cup semi-finals. The FA Cup has been played at Wembley since the semi-finals, but only the final of the League Cup is played at Wembley Stadium.

The semi-finals are played on a home and away basis.

In the first semi-final, Liverpool will challenge Tottenham Hotspur away from home. Only returned to his home court for the second game.

This week's schedule is also very intensive. The final against Chelsea had just been played the weekend before, and the League Cup semi-finals were about to begin in the middle of the week. There is another FA Cup match at the weekend and the second leg of the League Cup semi-final next week.

However, the reserves are mainly tired, and the first team has little impact.

Now the reserve team is also experiencing the impact of the intensive schedule.

In the normal reserve league, Clark has begun to let more players who usually cannot play in the League Cup and FA Cup, or who have played less often, to participate in the game, and let players who will play in the League Cup and FA Cup Sitting on the bench, or simply not making the squad.

If it were done in the past, those players would definitely rebel if they did this. Because the reserve league is a pitiful game opportunity for them. If they are unable to participate in the reserve league, it means that they are all marginal figures in the reserve team. They will either transfer and leave, or wait until their contract expires before leaving.

But now they look down on the reserve league. After playing in the League Cup and FA Cup, they felt that the reserve league was just like playing house. It was not exciting or intense at all and could not improve them.

Recall the just-concluded Carabao Cup quarter-finals. They were first scored two goals by Arsenal in the game, and then struggled to reverse and finally completed a great reversal.

Although they were not the ones who scored the goal, the players from the reserve team still played an important role in the game. Their defense withstood the fierce offensive of Arsenal's first team. You know, this is Arsenal's first team! And it’s the main force!

They were able to win two consecutive games against such a team in four days, which is an amazing achievement.

These days, the reserve team players who participated in the game walked around the training base with their heads held high.

They are proud of being able to play alongside Chen Yingxiong, and they are also proud of being able to defeat Arsenal twice.

In the past, whoever was in the reserve team could be transferred to the first team, which meant that he was of good quality. But now everyone has changed this view. Who is qualified to fight alongside Chen Yingxiong now, and who is the high level.

Participating in the League Cup and FA Cup with Chen Yingxiong has become a reward mechanism for the Liverpool reserve team.

The other players were unwilling to admit defeat when they saw their teammates who had participated in the two games against Arsenal being so arrogant. So they worked harder and worked harder in training. This forms a healthy competition mechanism.

Clark has repeatedly reiterated to the players that in the eyes of him and Martin O'Neill, there is no so-called absolute main force. Everyone except Chen Yingxiong must compete for the position. Just because you perform well in this game does not mean that you can start the next game. It all depends on your training status and level before the next game. Any idea that if you perform well in one or two games, you can rest on your laurels and sleep, it will not work.

Carlton Cole even used his outstanding performance to get the opportunity to join the first team to train together. He was also selected into the Premier League squad. Although he did not play in the game, it was still a very remarkable achievement. Make others envious.

Cole is the best role model and goal. Everyone wants to be the second Carlton Cole.

It is under the stimulation of such a mechanism that the Liverpool reserve team, which was previously lifeless and had little hope, has regained new vitality.

Neither Clark nor Martin O'Neill expected that the request made by Chen Yingxiong would eventually bring such a big change to the reserve team. They originally thought that Chen Yingxiong only did this out of his own selfishness, wanting to score more goals and win more top scorer honors. Unexpectedly, it would eventually bring about such earth-shaking changes to the Liverpool reserve team...

In any case, they all want to thank Chen Yingxiong for what he has done for the reserve team.

They are truly blessed to have such an outstanding player on a team.

The arrival of Chen Yingxiong not only changed the Liverpool first team, but also the Liverpool reserve team. He also changed the destiny of the entire Liverpool club.

Tottenham Hotspur met Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-finals last season, or strictly speaking, they met Liverpool's reserve team.

This time it was replaced by the League Cup semi-finals.

Tottenham Hotspur do not dare to underestimate this team at all.

Even though this is not the reserve team last season, they have proven their ability and value through two bloody battles with Arsenal.

A team like this cannot be underestimated under any circumstances. In the first game, Arsenal was unlucky because they underestimated them. They lost 0:2 and had no power to fight back. In the second game, they did not underestimate the opponent, so they were able to score two goals in four minutes and once led by two goals, but Liverpool's reserve team had Chen Yingxiong...

Tottenham's strength is not as good as Arsenal's, so naturally they dare not underestimate their opponent.

They plan to use their home court advantage to make a fuss.

If we can't beat this team at home, I'm afraid there will be no need to play the second round...

A reserve team can actually make the top players in the Premier League feel nervous and helpless. This is probably the first time in the Premier League's more than 20-year history.

And all of this happened because of the Chinese named "Chen Yingxiong".

The second season of Liverpool's Reserve Legends is now airing to great acclaim!
