Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 211 The Chariot on February 2st
In the early hours of February 2st, the winter transfer window of the mainstream European leagues was closed, and the signings and cleaning work of major clubs to strengthen their lineups were settled.

This winter window can be summed up in one sentence: the Premier League is invincible!Liverpool bucked the trend, and Huachao's signings are still crazy, surpassing the sum of La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A.

Although in the eyes of the European media, the just-concluded 2017 winter transfer window was a bit boring due to the lack of big-name and heavyweight deals, but this does not mean that the burn of money has been reduced.The league that can burn the most money throughout the winter is the Premier League, followed by the Huachao in second place.

The total cost of winter signings for the 20 Premier League teams reached 3.21 million euros, because Liverpool introduced Salah to catch Emre Can, and Jesus, who joined Manchester City for 3200 million, became the Premier League winter standard king.

Although Huaguo football shoes have strict restrictions on the use of foreign aid, the Huachao team's spending is still unambiguous. 6000 million Oscars, 2330 million Ighalo, 2000 million Weitzer, and refreshed Huaguo player transfers. Zhang Chongchong (2044 million) with the record dues, Huachao's total signing cost is close to 2.19 million euros.Although it has decreased from 3.45 million in the same period last year, the Chinese Super League is still not comparable to most European leagues.

法甲支出1.51亿，是英超和华超之外唯一支出破亿的联赛。欧洲五大联赛中另外三家就谨慎了很多，西甲（2350万）、德甲（9926万）和意甲（9584万）的开支总和是2.1860亿，比华超的2.1879亿还略有不如。

In general, this winter window, there are not many blockbuster deals that are eye-catching enough.

In this regard, the most concise comment comes from Balotelli, who has always been unwilling to be mediocre. Balotelli complained when watching the live broadcast on the closing day: "Watching the transfer is not as good as watching the beautiful host who reports the transfer on TV!"

Balotelli's words are not unreasonable. This winter window, most of the European giants have chosen to stand still.

In addition to Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal, the four giants of the Premier League, have only one signing in total, and it is the signing of Jesus, which was finalized by Manchester City half a year ago.Bayern in the Bundesliga, Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga (Real Madrid is still in the transfer ban period), and there are no new recruits in the winter window.

In other words, none of the seven giants in the three major leagues in England, Germany and West actually conducted signings in the winter window.

According to the transfer fee ranking of the German "Transfer Market" website, there are only 3000 signings of more than 5 million euros this winter, and only Draxler and Salah completed their transfers within the five major leagues.

Greater Paris has become the king of money-burning in the five major leagues. Just buying German star Draxler for 4000 million euros and Gerdes for 3000 million euros is enough to be proud of the crowd, not including more than 2000 million in pieces Buy other players.

It's just that Ligue [-] and Paris have little influence in European football, and people still regard it as a European Chinese Super League club for the time being.

Huachao has undoubtedly become the protagonist of the winter window. Half of the top ten transfers are related to the Super League. The king of the bid is made in China: Oscar signed with Shanghai SIPG for 6000 million euros.And Zhang Chong's sky-high price of 2044 million euros (refer to the actual price premium of 43 times on the German "transfer market" website), set a new record for the transfer fee of Chinese players.

Can you believe it? A player with a score of more than 70 who is not qualified for the main position of the current Hua Guo team can actually reach the status of a world superstar!
And it's still the price of Huachao's internal transfer from BJ Guoan to Hebei Huaxia Fortune. Huachao is crazy!

What about the repeated emphasis on connecting with the world?All the horse riders have been sent to Mars. From then on, who else in the world will study the game and go abroad?
Zhang Mai also made a special phone call with Lippi and Li Tong about this matter, for fear that it would affect the mental state of the current Huazu players.

"It's okay, the current international players are the hearts and minds of their respective clubs, and they are more valuable than Zhang Chongchong!"

Li Tong's careless answer made Zhang Mai dumbfounded, and felt that he had suddenly become a fool who owned a hundred suites in Shanghai and was still working in Dongguang.

In fact, it is the crazy purchasing power of the Chinese Super League that directly caused the Premier League to realize the first "profit" since the introduction of the concept of "transfer window" in football this January, that is, the income of the seller is higher than the cost of the buyer.The Premier League's winter transfers cost a total of 1 million pounds, but the income reached 2.7 million pounds, with a net profit of nearly 2.9 million.In addition to Oscar, Ighalo's transfer fee to Changchun Yatai is also as high as 2000 million pounds. Two of the top 2000 transfers in the Premier League's winter spending are related to the Super League.Since the transfer window of the Super League has not yet closed, in the view of the British media, this number is expected to continue to rise.

Huaguo football is a little crazy, and Zhang Mai has strengthened his belief of "never climb high", that is, he will resolutely not have commercial contacts or interest disputes with China, so as not to make himself the next "hot three years".

冬窗落幕，英超继续进行，2016/17赛季英超第23轮比赛就在2月1日展开厮杀。

Liverpool will usher in a focus battle this round, which can also be said to be an early championship battle, competing with Chelsea as a guest at Anfield Stadium.

On the day of the life-and-death battle, another thing happened in Liverpool that attracted the attention of the whole of England, that is, Gerrard, who was officially announced before, officially started his coaching journey today.

On the morning of February 2st, Gerrard, the meritorious captain of Liverpool, came to the Liverpool youth training camp to serve as the coach of the youth training camp. He happily shared his joy on social media.

After the Los Angeles Galaxy announced his retirement in December last year, Gerrard joined the Liverpool youth academy as a coach and returned to the original starting point.

Gerrard joined Liverpool's youth academy when he was 9 years old, and later tried many clubs, including Manchester United at the age of 14.

At the age of 15, his talent was discovered by the Liverpool club again, and he was re-enrolled in the Liverpool training camp. On November 1997, 11, Gerrard signed his first professional contract with Liverpool Football Club.

Gerrard shared his training kit online, writing:
first day!Putting on the Liverpool jersey again and continuing my 17-year relationship with the Red Army, I am in a good mood and hope to train more Steven Gerrard under my leadership to supplement the Liverpool club's reserve force.

Liverpool officials immediately tweeted to welcome Gerrard's return, and Klopp also led all the players to praise Gerrard.

At 12:30 noon, all the soldiers of the Red Army have prepared their troops, waiting for the battle with the championship opponent at Anfield Stadium.

Klopp attaches great importance to this top game worth 6 points, and has already arranged for the team to be eliminated from 4 cups in 2 days last week.

Many old players who took a break on the field appeared in today's starting lineup, and Mane, who hurried back after the African Cup of Africa, entered the bench.

切尔西近5个赛季11战利物浦仅落败3场，其余8战取得5胜3平，而利物浦则期待5年来首度赛季双杀切尔西。

在双方英超历史的49次交锋中，切尔西19胜11平19负，其中客场6胜5平13负，这是两队历史上的第176场交锋，此前利物浦76胜38平61负占据上风。

Conte's 3-4-3 formation that "emphasizes midfield control and both offense and defense" has almost run in, and the starting lineup is also very stable. Today, only William will be used to rotate Pedro in the starting lineup.

Today's Anfield stadium has long been occupied by red, and the exciting team song "You will never walk alone" has never stopped. This much-anticipated battle has already started with blood and gunpowder.

The big screen on the sidelines showed the starting lineups of both sides:

Liverpool: (4-2-3-1)
22 - Mignolet;

2- Klein, 32- Matip, 4- Van Dijk, 7- Milner; 14- Henderson, 10- Zhang Mai, 5- Wijnaldum;
12- Mbappe, 11- Firmino, 8- Coutinho.

Chelsea: (3-4-3)
13 - Courtois;

28-Azpilicueta, 24-Cahill, 30-Luiz;
15-Moses, 7-Kanter, 21-Matic, 3-Alonso;
22-William, 19-Diego Costa, 10-Azar.

"Hello buddy, I have to be merciful today!"

Zhang Mai stood in the middle circle waiting for the kick-off, when Chelsea's "beauty of the age" Diego Costa ran over to make friends with Zhang Mai.

"Yes! As long as you are honest, I will be more honest than you!"

Zhang Mai's truth made the Brazilian's bitter face suddenly turn into a big "jiong"...

"Puff", "Puff" laughter, not only the Liverpool players, but also Hazard, William and other Chelsea players nearby could not help but cover their mouths and laugh.

In the end, it was Zhang Mai's old teammate Kanter who came up to say hello to avoid making the "beautiful man" Costa run away.
