Chapter 997 Double Red Meeting: The Legend Will Farewell

Zhou Tiancheng never seemed to be unable to keep what he said. At the moment when the final whistle sounded, the reporters in the media seats suddenly realized.

It stands to reason that this should not be a game in which Tottenham were blocked, even after Zhou Tiancheng took the lead, Lamela and Harry Kane had more than one good chance in the penalty area.

It's just that the beautiful frontcourt is all thanks to Zhou Tiancheng, and the backcourt is rotten, thanks to De Gea.The Manchester United fans breathed a sigh of relief when they left the field. Although Zhou Tiancheng played a decisive role in taking away the three-pointer, he was able to persist until he played in the second half to stabilize the situation. De Gea was also the pinnacle in front of the goal.

"Come on, old man, Manchester United won again... Look, I told you, there are no surprises. They are not qualified enough. If you say that Liverpool has a chance... then I can barely believe it."

Yang Cheng was joking with Carragher easily. In order to take care of the old man's face, he felt that he had already said it quite euphemistically.

Carragher smiled helplessly: "You guy, just say what you want to say, you think I won't know? It's not the first time you don't give Liverpool face."

Yang Cheng laughed: "If I really didn't consider you, I would have said so just now."

Carragher couldn't help laughing: "Whatever you want, anyway, it is unlikely that Liverpool will win the championship this season, so we don't care."

Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment: "Huh? You really think so?"

Carragher shrugged his shoulders: "Liverpool has always dared to face failure. Because when it comes to glory, even compared with Manchester United, we are not much worse than them."

Manchester United scored three points in the away game. However, Giggs and the team did not really stay long after they returned to Manchester. The whole team just took a day off and left for Liverpool the next day.

Manchester United's itinerary is naturally everyone's concern. While they were rushing to Liverpool, the Liverpool media began to get excited.

"Manchester United is coming! Rodgers needs to prove that at Anfield, it's about our dignity!"

Liverpool's local media "Liverpool Post" set such a tone for this game, regardless of whether it is right or not, in short, the tone is very high, and it is always right.

Now Liverpool is ranked third, close to the second Manchester United. Although in the eyes of professional and rational onlookers like Carragher, Liverpool's fate of winning the championship is no longer in their hands, but there is still hope of winning the championship.The Liverpool media naturally regarded this game as a test for Rogers, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a season test.

Manchester United has not arrived yet, and they are still on their way to Anfield. The media has already shown such an attitude. Although Rogers also wants to win this game, the attitude of the media really disturbs him.

"I don't want to put too much pressure on the players, they are the best. Steven Gerrard has experienced the most brutal Champions League final. In Istanbul, he led the team to achieve what every Liverpool person is still proud of. Glory. Of course this game has to be won, but not for the goals you said, this is the last time a great player has such a great game, so we have to win."

Rogers avoided talking about goals when he was interviewed by the media off the court, and tried to use various methods to decompress the team.

What is a little surprising is that after he said these words, the pressure of Liverpool's local media on the team's public opinion has really decreased... To be precise, everyone chose to remain silent.

It wasn't because these reporters convinced Rogers that what he said made sense, but because Rogers reminded everyone of a heavy fact.

This is Gerrard's last double red meeting, and it will also be his last season at Liverpool.

At the beginning of the new year in 2015, all media are looking forward to what kind of big money Liverpool will have in the winter window, but Liverpool is the first to throw out a big news that is enough to shake the entire Premier League.Steven Gerrard, who has played for Anfield for 17 years, will leave the team at the end of the season.At the same time, the Los Angeles Galaxy of the American Major League announced that Gerrard will join the team from next season.

This has to be shocking.

Going away from the Premier League, the center of European football, to the world-famous "football desert" in the United States is usually considered a gold rush, which means that a star has completely passed away and cannot gain a foothold in European football. Plan for yourself for a few years.This is not the first time the club from the MLS has shocked European football.Their first staggering transfer was to leverage Beckham to join.

What really worried the Liverpool media was what happened later-Beckham was loaned back to European football, and in AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, he could still frequently output assist data.It proves that this club is not looking at completely outdated stars.

The same team, the same operation method, God knows if the same scene will happen?
Gerrard has been completely integrated with the red color of Anfield. In the hearts of every Liverpool fan, he is the leader in a desperate situation, leading everyone on the field to fight to the end.Liverpool fans can't imagine Gerrard wearing a different color jersey one day, in case he becomes a rival at Anfield...

Gerrard is very open about this point, in the pre-match press conference, he has already talked about such a plan without hesitation.

"If I can't lead Liverpool to continue to win the championship this season, then it means that it is time for me to leave. Making this decision is the most painful torment for me. My entire football career will always be marked with red. For me Said it was a lucky color, it represented victory, and I always believed that red, which belongs to Liverpool, will win to the end ... just like the next game."

Gerald suddenly brought up the topic of the upcoming double-red meeting, and the expressions of some reporters gradually changed from gloomy to normal.

Gerrard glanced at the reporter and showed a slight smile. He probably guessed what the reporters in front of him wanted to know, and continued: "Of course, the game against Manchester United will definitely not be easy. If we can take advantage of the confrontation with Zhou Tiancheng All of this is naturally not a problem.”

The reporters nodded lightly, that's right, so it's up to you...

Gerrard then smiled: "You don't need to look at me like this. Zhou is already the strongest midfielder in Europe, perhaps the entire football world. Facing such an opponent, I can only say that I need to inspire every player." People's fighting spirit is not so easy to take advantage of at Anfield."

Gerrard's words are not as full of unrivaled confidence as the media.
