ball at foot

After the away draw with Arsenal, the difference between Liverpool and Arsenal is still four points.

Although the gap with Manchester United has determined that Manchester United will not be able to catch up, but the gap with Arsenal will also make it impossible for Liverpool to catch up.

The four-point gap makes it acceptable for Liverpool to play in the last game. It is impossible to get No.2 this season.

Although before the start of the season, no one thought about competing for second place.But at the last moment of the game, Henry was injured and Manchester United fell behind. With so many favorable factors, they still failed to win No. 3, but it still made the Liverpool players feel a little regretful.

In the eight rounds of No.30, Liverpool did not play well. In the end, at their home court, they drew 1-1 with Aston Villa, which ended the entire season hastily. [

"Arsenal lost 1-2 to Birmingham." Back in the dressing room, Yesterdam told the players what they wanted to know, "but still three points ahead of us. Manchester United also drew, the last round, no There is nothing left to contend for, and we are recharging our batteries for the cup competition. The season is over, and we are No.3."

In 38 games, 23 wins, nine draws and six losses with 78 points, Liverpool won the league No.3.Chelsea, which led for a season, finally won the championship with 91 points. Arsenal won 24 wins, nine draws and five losses, ranking No.81 with 2 points, while Manchester United ranked fourth with 72 wins, [-] draws and six losses, with [-] points. .

This season, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United occupy the top four in the league-no one realizes that for a long time in the future, the top four will always be these four teams The teams are entangled.

After the end of the season, all the awards that need to wait until the final round have also been released.

The golden boot was still taken by Henry.Although he was injured in the last few rounds, even so, he still scored as many as 25 league goals.In fact, this award is not surprising at all. Since Ruud van Nistelrooy was injured, the top scorer of this season can only be Henry's.

And Zhao Yaning is tied for second in the scorer list.His tally of goals is 21, tied with Andy Johansen for the sea dominance.Although Andy Johansen's 21 goals included as many as ten penalties, but silver boots are not golden boots, and the second score is nothing special. To distinguish these again?

And Zhao Yaning got the first assists this season.He has as many as [-] assists, two more than Lampard, who is second in the assist list, and four more than Henry, who is third.

Of course, this is based on the continental European algorithm. If, according to the practice of the Premier League, a follow-up shot after a shot is counted as an assist, a penalty kick is counted as an assist, and the penultimate pass of a counterattack is also counted as an assist, Lampard has 26 assists. Henry has 24 assists, while Zhao Yaning only has 23 assists.

It is precisely because of this that the media in England are still worried about Zhao Yaning's assists.After all, switching to the previous calculation method of the Premier League, Zhao Yaning became the third.Lampard is still regarded as the assist king by the English media.

It’s fine if you’re competing with others. Lampard is an Englishman after all, and this season, after Chelsea won the Premier League championship, they will also favor Lampard to compete for the Golden Ball. Therefore, they still attach great importance to Lampard. possible honors.

But no matter how much they hope, it's useless. The league can't change the statistical standards just because of their ideas.The Premier League is thinking about moving closer to the mainland, and naturally it will no longer use unique statistical methods.Although the media insisted on their own opinions, according to official statistics, Zhao Yaning is still number one.

Moreover, this season, there is another thing that makes Chelsea very dissatisfied: the position of the best head coach fell to Everton coach Moyes.In recognition of Everton under his leadership, after selling the main striker Rooney, they did not make too many signings, but still won the fifth place in the league.Although Mourinho led the team to win the championship, in the selection, it was considered that the team left by Ranieri was good, and the result of Abuken's spending money did not get much recognition.

Chelsea fans naturally regarded this result as the envy of others towards Chelsea.But in private, Zhao Yaning has some villain’s guesses. The reason why the English Professional Players Association, that is, PF, made such a result is probably because Mourinho kept yelling and scolding whoever caught him. His style offended all those people in PF.

And these evaluations are not important after all.After all, although the league is over, it is over without the season.A week later, Manchester United and Arsenal will compete for the FA Cup title, and two weeks later, Liverpool will go to Istanbul to take on Milan.

"Now, for Liverpool, what is your biggest wish? Manchester United lost the FA Cup final, and Ferguson took the blame and resigned for two consecutive years. Chelsea lost again in the Champions League. Abramovich was no longer enthusiastic about football. Pard sold to Arsenal, John Terry to Liverpool, Arsenal sold Vieira and Thierry Henry to pay off their debts to build the stadium, and never recovered from it... Are these fantasies too good?"

Liverpool's dream may not be realized in a short time.

And the only thing that makes Liverpool happy is: in the FA Cup final, Manchester United lost to Arsenal in a penalty shootout. This is the third time they have lost all four in the Premier League. This is enough to see that Manchester United is indeed Entered the stage of decadence.

However, after watching that game, Zhao Yaning was not happy.In his impression, in the past when Arsenal played against Manchester United, it was always Arsenal who played against Manchester United. Although there were wins and losses in terms of results, Arsenal absolutely always had the upper hand on the scene.But this game, the situation is very different. Although Arsenal won the championship, they were suppressed by the audience. Although Arsenal won this game, after watching it, it feels like Manchester United has found a rise The correct idea, but Arsenal is the one in decline...

Although no matter who rises, Liverpool will not be very happy, but in comparison, they are even less willing to see the rise of Manchester United.

"For other teams, we can only imagine, but for Liverpool itself, we can see glory by giving support. Istanbul, here we come. The Champions League is in front of us. This championship, we can give it a go of!"

Even the media in England are very clear about one thing: Milan is very strong, even a little too strong.

Dida keeps the goal, Maldini, Stam, Nesta, Cafu in the defense, Pirlo, Ambrosini, Gattuso in the midfield, Kaka and Seedorf in the midfield , the striker position, and Shevchenko, the recent Golden Globe winner.

Such a lineup should appear in football games.Moreover, even if they met in a football game, people would scold the other party for being too perverted.

As for the depth of the bench, Milan is not too bad.There are Costacurta and Karadze at the back, Dorazo, Rui Costa and Serginho in the midfield, and Crespo and Inzaghi at the forward line.

Because of their age and Milan's lack of stability, their performance in the league is not stable, and they have no way to compete with a stable monster team like Juventus.But when it came to the cup match, where the outcome was decided, their strength became suspicious.

This enemy is an unprecedentedly powerful enemy that Liverpool has encountered.

In Italy, "Gazzetta dello Sport" also issued a declaration, "None of us thought that Milan's Champions League final opponent would be Liverpool. Milan can see this game from the beginning of the season, or even two seasons ago." However, the opponent in the final surprised us. Such an opponent is not the opponent that Milan expects."

"Half a year ago, Zhao Yaning lost to the superior Sheva in the Golden Globe selection, and in the selection of the World Footballer of the Year, relying on the shame of Asian countries to canvass votes, it created the biggest scandal in the selection of the World Footballer of the Year: European Football Mr. has not entered the top three! Now, half a year later, Liverpool has come to the stage of the final due to their luck and insignificance. In the Istanbul game, they will meet Milan. We believe that Milan will definitely win, and we Not only will you win, but you will also win beautifully, and if you win, your opponent will have something to say!"

ps: In yesterday's update, Van Persie was replaced, but it turned out that Reyes was replaced.I kept thinking about Reyes when I wrote it, but I made a mistake and I apologize.Typing is not very serious, sometimes it is inevitable to make mistakes, please understand.

And yesterday's section was not intended to write about how predictable Benitez is, but mainly to make complaints about Wenger.As for why Arsenal's replacement failed, let's talk about it later.After reading the old news, I found that Liverpool's wish is really beautiful, but the irony is that it is a dream for others, but the expectation for Arsenal has come true...
