Volume 7, Chapter 258: Ruthless
Klopp insisted on keeping a hand in the backcourt. No one understood why he did this. After all, he was not confident enough in his midfield control. The most skilled player in the team is Coutinho. This is a typical attacking midfielder, but he is not the best metronome. After getting the ball, the first reaction of the Brazilian is to rush forward with the ball, but Klopp What is needed is control.
Klopp has been standing on the sidelines and roaring: "Filipe, you... bird, I will let you stabilize!"
Not to mention that Klopp's voice can't be heard in the deafening atmosphere of Old Trafford, even if Coutinho knew before the game that he couldn't do it.
In today's world football, never expect Brazil's midfielders, Argentina's defenders, and China's local forwards to be reliable. Although Coutinho started to become the midfielder of the Selecao, he played similarly to the midfielder. attributes, but he is not a little bit away from a truly qualified midfielder like Iniesta.
A real midfielder has a certain degree of relaxation, and the global vision will always take precedence over personal skills. Coutinho is obviously far behind. Iniesta would never try to pass Zhou Tiancheng. The first choice must be to pass the ball. The second choice is still passing, and the third choice is still passing.
Although Coutinho has already played two teams in European football, it is still difficult to get rid of the shadow of Samba football. In fact, Klopp also gives him enough space in normal times. Originally, Uncle Zha wanted to move Henderson to the present Zhou Tiancheng's training in that direction seems to be in good shape. Henderson's long pass two minutes ago has accurately found the top of Sturridge's head. The long pass has improved a lot, but it is still not so good. mean. And Coutinho is not a qualified person.
This is a tragedy. Liverpool now lacks Gerrard. It is not just as simple as re-establishing the soul of a team. The biggest impact on the tactical level is that they cannot find a suitable replacement.
Facing Zhou Tiancheng and Fellaini who pressed forward instantly, Coutinho regretted it at this moment. No matter how strong he is, it is impossible to face two people whose physical fitness and consciousness are not weaker than his own. The big man can also protect the ball.
Manchester United directly pushed and counterattacked directly after stealing from the midfield. Klopp jumped up and ran to the sidelines. He gestured desperately to signal the backcourt formation to stabilize. Buvac stepped up and slapped Klopp on the shoulder: "Yul Gen, we should press up! Zhou is very fast, do you want to give him space to shoot from a long distance? By the time he kicks, we will be too late!"
Buvac has long had doubts about Klopp's tactics. He made suggestions before the game, but Klopp rejected them with a simple and crude reason: "I think I know Zhou better than you."
But now Buvac came up, yelled on the field, and then kept calling on the field, asking for the formation to press up.
Fortunately, the atmosphere on the field suppressed their voices,
The players didn't care to pay attention to the sidelines at all, only the commentator stared at the camera to pay attention to the movements of the two, and couldn't help laughing and joking: "Huh? Hahaha, what is Klopp's tactics? Zelico Buvac Stealing the spotlight... If it wasn't for my brain, Klopp's hands-down gesture would be interesting if it wasn't for solid defense - Jurgen Klopp has a bad relationship with his closest assistant ?”
Once this sentence breaks out, it will definitely be another big news that is highly sought after. The reason why Liverpool quit the championship early and the Champions League is even more unsightly has finally been found.
But now it's just the commentators talking casually, and soon their attention returned to the field.
"Lukaku pushes in again! Hold Sakho! Turn around, chance... oh, the ball is behind him. But! Wait - Zhou! Straight shot! Ha, he came up from behind and ran to the goal This location. Simone Mignolet...GOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!"
Zhou Tiancheng's kick was simple and direct, and he slashed through Lovren's legs. There were two tall towers in front of the goal that couldn't stop the ball from being lost.
This time Klopp couldn't laugh like he did when he conceded the ball the first time. Zhou Tiancheng stretched out two fingers at him, and in response, he directly slapped him across the air.
Zhou Tiancheng laughed, and turned around to greet his teammates: "Go on, go on, fuck them!"
Klopp clenched his fists directly. He stared at his own players on the field. When facing the field head-on, his facial muscles twitched. Turning his back to the camera, he gritted his teeth and cursed: "This gang Boy! As far as their tactical execution ability is concerned, they are not the people I need!"
"A big shuffle next season, replace them all?" Bovac walked up, stared at Klopp and shook his head slowly: "Jurgen, I have said that this is not okay, at least my suggestion is still good. Can't you listen? Isn't it always like this in Dortmund?"
Klopp turned to look at him with anger in his eyes: "Gelico, do you believe it? If I didn't do this, it might be 0:3 now. I admit your tactical attainments, but you also ran to the sidelines just now Come command, what is this?"
Buvac froze for a moment, then shook his head with a smile. Klopp must be in a bad mood at this time, and he deeply understands Uncle Zha's temper.
"The tactics are the same, it's only half an hour now, we have to leave some suspense for the second half, I never take unnecessary risks, believe it? This time Zhou is waiting, waiting for me to press him like a mad dog, and then... ...Whoever takes the risk will die, Zellico, tactics are not static, but you have to see your opponent clearly."
Klopp is still teaching Buvac. In fact, Uncle Zha really deserves to be one of the people who knows Zhou Tiancheng best. At least Liverpool's defense line has never been caught. This is the routine that Zhou Tiancheng killed most of his opponents during Dortmund.
The only flaw is that the two central defenders have poor turning ability. Either Sakho or Lovren can face Lukaku head-on, but Rooney's type of striker is almost born to restrain them.
As soon as Lukaku received Zhou Tiancheng's long pass with a header, Rooney was on the line of the penalty area, just one step earlier than Lovren who turned around.
In fact, Lovren has lost track of Rooney in front of him, and when he reacts, he can only throw his center of gravity out to slide the shovel, but it is too late.
Rooney was indeed shoveled, but the ball was also scored.
"It's 3:0, Manchester United leads Liverpool!" Even Yang Cheng was not so excited, not only because it was not Zhou Tiancheng's goal, but——
"This is normal. Although the difference in strength is not as great as the score, Klopp can only blame himself. The trouble came from his mouth. Maybe it was too high-profile before the game. Zhou Tiancheng was serious, and that was the result."
Yang Cheng smiled more happily in his heart than he showed, but he didn't have to lose face!
If it wasn't for the fact that the British don't understand what "face" is, he wouldn't mind saying it directly.
