Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 207 Famous and handsome

Zhang Mai lived up to people's expectations of him, and indeed became the most beautiful cub in the game, shining at Old Trafford.

But after the game, the two head coaches Mu Niao and Uncle Zha really stood out. The performance of the two passionate coaches on the spot overwhelmed Zhang Mai who reversed the game.

After the final whistle, Mourinho and Klopp gave a courtesy high-five from the touchline, and both looked to have calmed down.

Freed from the excitement of the game, the two famous coaches regained their demeanor, but in the hot situation of the game, they were not so good-tempered in the "battlefield".

In the final stage of the game, when Firmino was fouled by Herrera and missed a single-handed goal in the 90th minute, Klopp was furious at Mourinho and seemed very dissatisfied.

The two were arguing on the sideline, Uncle Zha gestured with his hands and yelled at Uncle Bird angrily, but the fourth official had to come over and separate them.

If you look closely, Mourinho once made a conciliatory gesture, trying to pat Klopp's waist, but the Red Army coach dodged angrily and refused the opponent's approach. jump back...

Why was Klopp so annoyed at that moment, throwing a fit at Mourinho?

The cause was that Manchester United midfielder Herrera fouled Liverpool striker Firmino. At that time, the Red Army launched a quick counterattack. Herrera made a tactical foul and grabbed Firmino's jersey. Herrera, the referee gave a yellow card to both players.

"dive row" "dive row"... conflict!conflict!

"Daily Mail" used such an eye-catching headline to focus on the interaction between the two famous coaches.

The "Daily Mail" revealed that Klopp was so angry because he thought Herrera was a fraud and tried to get the referee to send off Firmino.

"Daily Mail" also used the "dive row" (flopping storm) vocabulary to describe the conflict between the two sides.

At that time, Mourinho walked to the sideline and signaled to the referee that Firmino's pushing action also made Klopp dissatisfied. In Uncle Zha's view, Herrera and Mourinho tried to "yin" Firmino No, let the Brazilian eat the card.

"Klopp was blown away by the defeat of Coutinho and Karius, and he has the courage to tease the madman Wooden Bird!"

This was Zhang Mai's first reaction when he saw the "Daily Mail" report after the game.

Fortunately, the final victory of the Red Army allowed Klopp to quickly regain his composure. The winner should not have cared too much about the process and details.

"He (Mourinho) wanted the referee to give at least one yellow card, but we couldn't agree," he said.

Klopp said after the game:

"I think long before it happened (the shoving), the referee had blown his whistle and Herrera should have been given a yellow card and nothing else. But in the end, the guy (Firmino) who wanted to play well also Got a yellow card, if someone wanted to ask the referee to watch the replay, it could have been worse."

On the contrary, Wooden Bird, who has always been penny-pinching, showed unusual humility as the loser.

"He (Klopp) thought I was asking the referee to send off his players, but I didn't, it was fine."

Mourinho explained after the game that Klopp had misunderstood him.

"The players worked hard, in a passionate and professional way, so the referee's call was right. There was some aggression, but there was no malice."

Mourinho's humility after the loss won unanimous praise from the media. Even the disappointed Manchester United fans did not criticize Wooden Bird, but attributed the loss to Pogba's random first goal in the first half.

After Klopp won the game, he was unreasonable, but it aroused the exclamation of many media:
"Uncle Zha, who is usually humble and gentle, was blown away by the impressive performance of the Red Army!"

The Times of London reported in fairness and detail how and why:
Klopp's emotions may have accumulated before the game. In the interview before the game, he was slightly dissatisfied that Manchester United did not welcome Liverpool's courtesy statement in the game manual, which made him have a little opinion.

"I read the game booklet, for the first time, and I didn't see the courtesy greeting to welcome the visiting team. Then I asked for a coffee and there was only tea in the jar. (The war) had already begun, Right? Everything is OK, it's football and we are all prepared."

This is Klopp's complaint before the game.

In the end, the foul by Manchester United player Herrera before the end made Klopp's emotions explode, and Mourinho became his punching bag.

In fact, Uncle Zha himself is a passionate coach, and his "little volcano" would erupt from time to time during games. Judging from his high-five performance with Mourinho after the game, Uncle Zha's passion came quickly, and it didn't take long to calm down. The famous marshal did not make any troubles. On the court, they are opponents and off the court are colleagues who cherish each other. This relationship should not change.

……

On January 1, several days after the match against Manchester United, Klopp found Zhang Mai alone after the team training.

"Zhang Mai, Coutinho and Karius have all stated that they will obey the team's command, and the atmosphere in the team should be better."

Uncle Zha talked a lot back and forth, and finally got back to the topic:
"The team's performance is getting better and better. In your eyes, do I seem a little... inflated?"

nonsense!You think that you have unified all the heroes in the team, and you have won consecutive battles externally, but if you change it, I will also lose my temper.

"No! How could it be? You got angry at Manchester United that day. We all know that you are protecting the players. Didn't you see Firmino running extraordinarily vigorously these two days?"

Zhang Mai hastily denied it, thinking that you should be domineering because you have a good pen, but he was thinking about how to speak to dispel Uncle Zha's inflated hesitation.

"Then do you think we have a good chance of winning the championship this year?"

Klopp got a satisfactory answer, and turned the topic to the situation in the Premier League.

"It should be fine this year, but I've heard some interesting news from Kroter about transfers in the summer."

As long as you don't mess around, Coutinho and Karius, who have already been single-minded, will be sent at the critical moment!
Zhang Mai complained in his heart, and quickly named the innocent Crote.

"Oh, you mean...?"

Klopp returned to his original smart and calm appearance, and motioned Zhang Mai to speak directly.

"This summer, Paris is determined to introduce a world-class superstar. Barcelona's Neymar is very likely to join. Messi lacks an offensive general, which will definitely attract many frontcourt players in world football. , with Barcelona's piss, who would be the best candidate to make up for MSN? Am I considered one of the top ones?"

Zhang Mai retreated and told Uncle Zha that this year's transfer event will cause turmoil in Europe.

Klopp was really stunned by the news that Zhang Mai said, and he started to speak out after thinking for a long time.

"Zhang Mai, I believe you will not go to Barcelona to help Messi, but other people may not be sure."

The worried look on Uncle Zha's face did not fade away.

"I have to find someone to verify what you said, but don't worry, no matter what, you will be the only core of Liverpool in the next few years!"

After Klopp expressed his position, he left in a hurry, and the calm and unrestrained look he had when he came had long since disappeared.
