ball at foot

"Do you dare to play worse?" In the locker room, Zhao Yaning rarely got angry, "Everton! I can bear to lose to anyone, but it's Everton! The derby was lost. We are so lost!"

It's no wonder that Zhao Yaning is angry. He really didn't play very well in this game.Although Gerrard scored a long shot at the beginning of the game, but then, Liverpool failed to score in various ways. In the second half, Milito was accidentally injured again. Liverpool conceded three goals in a row. The breakthrough caused a penalty kick, and he made it himself, but in the end, the game was still lost.

Zhao Yaning never thought that he would encounter such a situation where his teammates were too lazy to run in the club, which naturally made him extremely angry.

"You guys played really well... I don't know what to say."

Zhao Yaning vented his anger, and none of his teammates dared to argue with him.I know that I played badly, lost to Everton, and everyone knew that the game was badly played. Zhao Yaning got angry, and they could only listen.The last time I didn't win, it can be said to be ff syndrome, I was too tired, but this time I lost, more or less, I have some problems of underestimating the enemy. [

"I didn't expect Everton to become so strong..." Gerrard scratched his head, but he still said, "I'm to blame, I've underestimated the enemy for a while, I always feel that Chelsea are down, and we have nothing to do It's a strong enemy, and it's a bit too underestimated. Moreover, these days are indeed a bit too tiring."

Gerrard took the responsibility, but Zhao Yaning knew that this was not his problem.Although he did underestimate the enemy, he still worked hard in the game.The main problem, on the one hand, is tiredness, and on the other hand, it is indeed because as the defending champion, seeing last season's championship opponent Chelsea so sluggish, the Liverpool players are also a little proud, and the game is not serious enough.

"But if you want me to say, it's good to lose a game." Zhao Yaning cursed a few words, and then said, "Losing in other games, everyone always feels it's a matter of concern. The league is still long, so I don't care much. But losing the derby, We should also wake up. We lost the Champions League last season. The league relied on Chelsea having the African Cup. The FA Cup met Manchester United, a strong enemy. To be honest, our results are just like that. Husband, please be gentle: escaped wife It’s charming to be naughty. The media is dizzy, and it’s time to wake up. If you want to win, you must first recognize yourself!”

What Zhao Yaning said is a bit heavy, but it is indeed the truth.What Liverpool need now is to calm down, put their mentality in order, and then play the rest of the game.

"Guys, Joey is right. You are tired, and I am tired. Joey should be more tired. He has played a lot more games than us, and he carries the national team alone. He doesn't shout. Tired, let's not be so unmanly." Alonso patted Reina next to him, "We should be tired, but it doesn't mean we can be lazy. We have only accumulated four points after three rounds of the league. Going out to laugh at people, how can you still look like the defending champion? If you continue to play like this, this season will be over. Let's run a little more, work a little harder, and maintain this advantage, isn't it good?"

"Harvey, you don't need to say it." Garcia said, "It's all the same. It's hard to lose the derby. It's really..."

"Losing is so embarrassing..." Sissoko muttered, but didn't continue. He knew the meaning of the derby very well, although from a macro point of view, losing to anyone is not a happy thing. But losing to a rival in the same city was indeed worse.

But if we can take advantage of this problem, it would be great to mobilize everyone's fighting spirit.Zhao Yaning looked at his teammates, and there was indeed regret on their faces.

"I hope that after this defeat, we will stop talking about the defending champion. Yes, in terms of strength, we are indeed the strongest in the Premier League, but in football matches, anything can happen. Brothers, if we don't Work hard, it is not unheard of for a season to win the championship and compete for the fourth place in a season."

Zhao Yaning understands the smugness in everyone’s heart. After all, after winning the championship last season, this group of people has almost won all the championships that the Premier League can win.Now I'm a little mentally exhausted.Moreover, in this summer's World Cup, only Figo in the whole team entered the semi-finals. The dissatisfaction of the national team also affected everyone's mood.At the beginning of the new season, mental fatigue combined with physical fatigue naturally made it difficult for many people to perform.

But after this game, it is estimated that the mental fatigue will disappear.After all, losing to a rival in the same city in the league was quite a stimulus to the team.

"Guys, it's okay to be tired. You are tired. Tell us in advance. We are not tired. We will run more for you. It's fine if you get tired. But, don't be lazy on the court!" Zhao Yaning's voice was a little harsh, "Anyway , I don’t want to see such a loss again!”——

"No, Joey has become more tempered this season." In private, Gerrard said to Alonso.

"I didn't find it. What did you find? Is he cheating, cheating, or missing training?"

"I'm not talking about that, I'm saying he's got a lot more grumpy..."

"Beating and scolding teammates, or not listening to orders?"

Gerrard couldn't speak, and Alonso grabbed his shoulders, "None, right? At most, he is not as silent as before. Now when the team is not playing well, he Stand up and speak up, right? It’s really strange that he lost his temper, but, say it yourself, who is to blame for this? Joey lost his temper, but he didn’t make a mistake, we really didn’t play strong.”

"But I always think it's strange for him to lose his temper." Gerald shrugged. "He never lost his temper before, and he was always a nice guy. I like him better like that."

"But you have to admit that he has the qualifications to curse people." [

"Of course, he is the team's big-name star after all. It's true that everyone played badly in this game. It's not surprising that he scolded a few words. Although, he always feels uncomfortable."

"Of course, no one likes to be scolded." Alonso nodded, "But he is qualified to be scolded, and he is right. Joey is not an unreasonable person, he must find a reason for scolding, and, They are all reasons related to the game, so don’t give him reasons to scold us, isn’t that the end? You can also see that he just has a temper, but he doesn’t lose his temper. What he wants is just a way for us all It's just playing football well, let's play football well, if he can't lose his temper, it's over? If he's fine, it's his problem to lose his temper over trivial matters, but for this matter, he is scolding for playing with financial derivatives speculation The latest chapter. If he hadn't spoken, I would have cursed."

Gerrard didn't speak, but Alonso spoke again, "Stephen, you, the captain, are actually a bit irresponsible. Your temper is too good, and you can't control your teammates. Sometimes we always have a good temper in the locker room. It’s not big or small, anyone can joke, quarrel with anyone, and even scold. Of course, on the bright side, it’s because our players are united, friendly, don’t have too much scheming, and don’t like intrigue. But in the bigger picture Say, it’s the leader’s negligence. You and Joey are the same. You two didn’t have the temper of a ball bully before, and you both have a little face, so Luis, Pepe and the others have become used to talking nonsense. I don’t think it’s a big deal. Yes. Even if you scolded you in person, you wouldn’t think it was a big deal. However, what happened last season had a big impact on Joey. Joey is angry now, and it’s for himself Establishing status, things like this should be your responsibility. If you take care of it well, you won’t have such a thing. You also have to think about what is the responsibility of a leader. The media say that the armband on the Liverpool stadium is yours , the captain in the locker room is Jimmy, it’s all about saying that you haven’t fulfilled your responsibilities as captain, don’t you think there’s a problem?”

"It's good, Jimmy and I are so clear about what we are doing..." Gerrard understood Alonso's words, but he still made a small joke, "I see, I didn't fulfill my responsibility as a leader. It's my problem. I'll fight for it..."

"Now, after all, we have just won the championship. Although we are a wealthy family, we have just recovered. At this time, it is much easier for everyone in the team to think. Not all of them are right. At this time, there must be someone in charge. , let them be careful not to think wildly, and sometimes, they need to scold them a few words. Stephen, to be honest, you can’t. You can’t do it with a cold face. So, Joey likes to scold, let him scold It’s okay to scold. Sometimes, the team must have a ball bully that others can’t resist when talking. If you can’t, then let Joey do it.”

Gerald was silent for a moment before nodding, "Joy may not be able to do it, but he is better than me. If you want to go further, sometimes you have to restrain your teammates. Let Joey come, let's help him That's it."

Looking at Gerrard, Alonso laughed, "Stephen, don't be too nervous. It's just a loss. This season, our enemy is much weaker after all. Not coming down. Moreover, this pride will explode sooner or later, and it will be a good thing if it explodes in the Derby, at least, it will be remembered clearly when it hurts.”

"Well, let's remember this time, and don't do it again." Gerald patted his head. "Speaking of which, there is one more thing, I think, you may not know." Gerald remembered What, "Javier Mascherano's deal has been settled, next season, we will have an extra midfielder."

After negotiating for a long time, in the end, Mascherano came to Liverpool after Liverpool paid an offer of 2000 million pounds.Liverpool has already registered him, but he is still in South America, and he is about to rush over after finishing the work there.

"A record transfer fee... Can he really get kicked out?" When Gerrard told everyone the news, several people in the team were still a little worried.

"If we can't play well, we will lose a lot." The teammates were all talking, "Xavi, aren't you worried?"

Alonso shrugged and said nothing.Although this is a 2000 million-level signing, Mascherano has always been the rumored top all-around midfielder, but Alonso is still not worried about his arrival.He is very aware of his position in the team, and he doesn't want to believe that Mascherano can easily replace him.

"Anyway, since he is here, he will be our teammate from now on." Zhao Yaning said, "2000 million worth may not be worth it. But a good teammate? With us here, he will definitely be able to do it. If he has the potential to not be able to play, it is the lack of help from his teammates, so let’s help him well, shouldn’t that be enough?”

When Mascherano arrived, it was already the end of August, which also announced the end of Liverpool's transfer period.

Goalkeeper Reina, Dudek, Carsen, defender Carragher, Hyypia, Vidic, Maicon, Finnan, Riise, Bruno, Arbeloa, midfielder Alonso, Sissoko, Ma Scherano, Arteta, Zhao Yaning, Gerrard, Figo, Garcia, Walcott, striker Milito, Fowler, Dirk, these people, formed Liverpool's lineup for the new season.
