Chapter 1043 Who else can save Liverpool?
As a diehard Liverpool loyalist and a "red soldier" all his life, Carragher smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his daily rivalry-it's time for Manchester United's diehard fans and Liverpool diehards to fight again.

"Zhou first scored for Manchester United, which is good. Of course, the FA Cup final cannot lack the drama of scoring. Then it's time to watch Steven Gerrard perform. No one wants to see the FA Cup final. It became a one-man show, which is actually impossible.”

Yang Cheng kindly reminded him next to him: "Jamie, pay attention to the occasion! Can you stop being so straightforward?"

Carragher turned his head and took a look, but he ignored Yang Cheng, and continued to talk to himself, looking back on Gerrard's legendary career for all the Liverpool fans who watched the game.

On the field, Gerrard looked at Mignolet with his hands outstretched in disappointment, and Jie, who never complained about his teammates, flashed a question——Simon, can you do it?Do you have to ruin the last game?

Gerrard felt that Mignolet should have a better prediction, or that even if he made a save towards the bottom line just now, the result would be completely different.As the goalkeeper of the Belgian national team, although he is not as brilliant as Courtois and has been squeezed out of the main force, he can still do it with his strength.

What can Mignolet say?I can only wave my hand to express my apologies, and I won’t do it next time.He has realized his mistake, but professional football never gives you a chance to regret it.The key is that Mignolet can't make up for it himself, and has to rely on his teammates in the end.

Gerald beckoned, and Henderson walked over: "Steven, what should we do?"

The young midfielder of the England national team, the star in the eyes of coach Roy Hodgson, is probably the only one from Liverpool who can make such a gesture. The English media are optimistic about him. Sophisticated, he is fully qualified to be Gerrard's successor, leading the midfield of the Three Lions.

Gerrard's expression was not very anxious, but the tone of his and Henderson's separate confessions showed their true inner feelings.He has already learned to hide himself. If he shows impatience, how will the media evaluate him is secondary. The most important question is can the players on the field still play well?

Let them know that our souls are starting to get impatient, is that okay?

"You come up to me! Don't think about being just a defensive midfielder, don't you know how to pass long passes? As a young man for Liverpool and the England national team, you need to be more courageous!"

Henderson was made guilty by Gerrard's attitude: "I'm fine, but Steven, I'm afraid I'll take your place..."

"I never thought of being the protagonist, Liverpool is the only protagonist." Gerrard interrupted him directly.

This reminder is still very effective, Henderson is no longer stuck in front of the defense.As a delayed defensive midfielder, in Rodgers' 4-4-2 formation today, his pressure means the forward pressure of Liverpool's entire formation. In order to compress the space between the midfield and the defense, two The central defender has to follow suit.

Rogers looked at this scene without any expression. Assistant coach Colin Pastor walked up to remind him: "Old man, you should make some moves. This is too risky. We should stick to our defensive counterattack. It's just started and it hasn't arrived yet." It's time for us to go all out, what are we doing? Steven is not like before, it seems that he really wants to win, but it won't work like this!"

Rogers laughed, as if he didn't care much at all.

"Brendan, can you still laugh?" Pastor was really anxious, calling him by his name.

“知道我为什么不踢4-3-3改踢4-4-2了吗？”

Pastor froze for a moment: "Isn't it to highlight the midfielder and give Steven more opportunities to perform? But he seems too anxious."

"It seems that only Steven and I have a tacit understanding, and you are almost there."

This sentence almost made Pastor vomit blood. We still lack a tacit understanding?We have been working together for five years since Swansea.That is to say, Pastor really has a good temper, otherwise he might run away on the spot... It's too hurtful.

But Rodgers went on: "He's very clear that we need to be more direct, don't you see when we play 4-3-3, although Raheem (Sterling) has the limelight, there are not many opportunities in the middle? We have such a good striker, Daniel (Sturridge), Fabio (Borini), even including Mario Balotelli, which one is not capable, but we ignore this."

Rodgers has his reasons, but now Pastor disagrees. The team's offensive posture has become more active. The two black hammers of Sturridge and Balotelli in the frontcourt have already put Manchester United's There are loopholes in the defense, but the problem of the two is the same. When facing opportunities in front of the goal, their finishing ability is not very stable.Balotelli didn't think about life, and Sturridge didn't have this problem, but the reality is like this-a fierce operation like a tiger, and two hundred and five with one kick, is probably the best description.

The cake fed by teammates to the penalty spot should not have any problems for the two England and Italy internationals, but the two kicked it directly to the fans in the stands.

Behind the Manchester United goal is the home team stand - Manchester United, which is wearing a red jersey in this game and has drawn the home lottery, immediately burst into boos.

"Woooooo!"

Such a sound made the two squat down and hammer the Wembley turf angrily. It seemed that the most famous stadium in England and the blessed place of the England national team did not bring them good luck.

But there is really nothing to say. In the eyes of all the commentators, if such a chance in front of the goal is not scored, the two of them have to bear full responsibility.

"My God, Balotelli!"

"He shot the ball into the stands!"

"Liverpool actually wasted such an opportunity twice. Sturridge only wasted an identical shot 3 minutes ago!"

"Super Mario! When he's not thinking about life, he might be a bad boy who makes fun of every opportunity, but this image is not pleasing."

And Zhan Jun even joked: "Balotelli, Sturridge, how are you guys, let's go together, hahaha."

The Chinese fans even adapted the lyrics immediately: "My friends walk together on the field, and there will be more shots..."

There are also quite a few Liverpool fans in China, but now they can almost only stay honestly in Liverpool’s QQ groups and post bars. It’s okay to stay in their circle, but outside this circle, almost all of them are Manchester United fans.

No one is denying that Gerrard is not a legend, but not everyone thinks he is the only protagonist.

Only the diehard fans of Liverpool are asking a question: It's about to kneel again, the striker is simply unreliable, who else can save Liverpool?
