Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 258 Pre-Match Comments
The October of the 2017-2018 Premier League season was particularly lively. The defending champion Liverpool was still in full swing. The Wooden Bird's Manchester United and the bald Manchester City were fighting for each other. Tottenham and Chelsea were chasing after them.

As for Arsenal, let's not mention it. The Gunners, who have been declining year by year, have not even qualified for the Champions League this year, and have long been excluded from the Premier League championship team.

The top five of the Premier League are all powerful in the Champions League group stage, and the domestic league has all the heroes. The end of 5 can be said to be the end of England.

Zhang Mai spiked the "American Boxing Champion" at the dinner at the London Fashion Festival, and even brought this Premier League craze to the United States across the ocean.

In the next 9th round of the Premier League, Liverpool will go away to challenge Tottenham under the increasingly prestigious Boss, which naturally arouses the attention of all parties.

Tottenham began to rebuild their new stadium at White Hart Lane this year, and they rented Wembley Stadium from the FA as their temporary home stadium, which naturally attracted guests from all walks of life.

The first is Barcelona's sports director Robert, who will definitely appear in the 9th round match between Liverpool and Tottenham.

Barcelona, ​​which is ambitious to compete with Real Madrid this year, is not satisfied with just introducing Coutinho, but also wants to find new aid in the Premier League.

Barcelona director Robert has been appearing at major competitions recently to watch the team's major signing targets. First, the Bernabeu inspected Tottenham's Kane, and then flew to Lisbon to watch Martial's game.Now in this round of the Premier League match between Liverpool and Tottenham, Robert visited Wembley again. It is said that Barcelona wants to chase Zhang Mai who is in Liverpool.

In this game, Kane directly talked to Zhang Mai, who is also the subject of Barcelona's scandal, and the hand-to-hand combat can better see the player's superstar quality.

After Zhang Mai heard the news, he said hehe, if Messi doesn't leave, what can I do in Barcelona?It's better to win a few more Champions Leagues in Liverpool!
Another generation of football king Maradona will also come to watch the game. It is said that he was invited by the British media to appraise the weight of "No.1 in the Premier League" to see if he can match Melo.

Finally, the American basketball superstar Kobe Bryant also came to the new Wembley Stadium to watch the game. The media rumored that the American sports circle wanted to restore cross-strait relations, so Kobe was sent to take the lead.

After Zhang Mai heard this statement, he even snorted. After Kobe came to the Premier League, he didn’t ask me, a person who beat the boxing champion, to get close. What was he doing to go to Tottenham to cheer?
It's nothing more than being upset and unable to say it clearly, so I have to find my opponent to beat Liverpool. At least it can prove that Zhang Mai will lose.

People from all walks of life are bustling with each other, and the match between Liverpool and Tottenham has gradually become the focus of attention of football fans around the world.

Carragher, a Premier League star and a Liverpool star, commented on Zhang Mai and Kane in his pre-match column, calling Zhang Mai and Kane "Premier League superstars" in thousands of words:
It's often said that the word "legend" is almost out of use in football.If that's the case, then so is "world class".

Based on this idea, I don't agree with the view that "Harry Kane is already a world-class player", Kane is not worthy of this title, at least for now.

My standard for a world-class player is not just being the best in the domestic league, although Kane has made every defender in the Premier League fearful.

World class players are supposed to be the ones who do well in the Champions League (knockout stages) after Christmas and shine in the quarter-finals and beyond.

World-class players should be those who still perform well in important national team competitions.

In this sense, Liverpool's Zhang Mai should be regarded as a "world-class player".

In last week's UEFA Champions League group match, Zhang Mai amazed the world with 4 goals in the half. Level" standard, that is, one person can change a team! .

This season, Kane hopes to achieve the above two goals. He has such qualifications, but it seems that it is far from enough to be satisfied with the position of being the best in the country. What's more, the current number one player in the Premier League is Zhang Mai, Prince Hua. It has been the Premier League VIP for two consecutive years, and it seems that it will not miss this year.

I really like what Guardiola said when answering about Kevin De Bruyne's fiery state at the beginning of the season:

"If Kevin wants to be among the best players, he has to speak for himself with trophies."

This sentence can be said to be a summary of my point of view.De Bruyne is currently the best midfielder in the Premier League, and the top coaches are telling him that he has a long way to go.Pep's words also apply to Kane.

I agree that Kane is a world-class striker, but being the best among your peers is not enough, the platform on which you develop your talents is also important.If you choose the best 11 players in the world, can Kane compete with Messi, Neymar and Ronaldo for the striker position?No, at least not yet.

But Zhang Mineng!Zhang Mai, who already has two Premier League champions and two VIPs, can already compete with Melo in the hall of honor of European football.

But to really end the era of Melo's struggle, Zhang Mai still needs to work hard to pursue the Champions League or even higher honors, such as the World Cup.

Kane is a standout compared to strikers of his age, but his goals should be much more than that.

Since 2017, Kane's 27 league goals are also equal to Lewandowski.So technically, Spurs' number 10 is already one of the most prolific strikers.He scored more goals in the same period than Real Madrid's Benzema and Juventus' Higuain. I think Kane is better than them.

But Zhang Mai is obviously more efficient, with 28 league goals topping the list, and his playing time is the least among the top 20 on this list.

In this way, it is not surprising that there has been heated discussions about Kane's level, and there are even reports that Real Madrid have prepared 2 million pounds for him.

I think, if Real Madrid or Barcelona come to recruit Zhang Mai, how much should they pay?

It is interesting to ponder what Wenger said earlier about the number of world-class strikers:

"Forwards are already dominated by South America, and Europe will no longer produce forwards."

Of course, while the growth of Kane and Mbappe seems to defy this prophecy a bit, I generally agree with (Wenger).

Mbappe followed Neymar to Paris this summer, and his performance was no worse than that of Liverpool last season.

There was a time when the best player in the world was a No 9, like Marco van Basten in Europe, or Romario and Ronaldo in Brazil.

And now that world-class centers are facing scarcity, the eyes will naturally fall on Kane, but we can see how strong Zhang Mai's firepower is wearing the No. 10 jersey.

I am not writing this article to belittle or criticize Kane, the Tottenham striker, he is my favorite Premier League player, but Zhang Mai is enough for Liverpool!
The transfer market is full of uncertainties, but in terms of avoiding injuries, both Zhang Mai and Kane are the closest ideal choices.

Kane can guarantee continuous output.He is in his youth, a good age to raise the ball, and he is willing to fight for the best.

Zhang Mai, who is 5 years younger than Kane, can be described as infinitely youthful, but his old-fashioned style of play and incredible offensive firepower are more reminiscent of him.

So I was not surprised to read Pochettino's evaluation of Kane as "the player with the strongest mental strength, willpower and determination" in Balague's (famous journalist, La Liga expert) book.

The most famous sentence in Klopp's evaluation of Zhang Mai is:

"I don't know what Zhang Mai will look like in the future, just like Ferguson at Manchester United did not know that Ronaldo would win so many Ballon d'Ors later."

If Kane stays healthy and doesn't try to play abroad, I believe he will break Alan Shearer's Premier League record of 260 goals.

Shearer proved himself world-class, but also by representing England in the highest competition - Euro 1996.

Fernando Torres was world class too, not because of his years at Anfield but because of his contribution to Spain's Euro 2012 triumph.Suarez, one of the few players in my mind who is better than Kane, he is world-class, relying on his outstanding performance on behalf of Uruguay in the World Cup and Barcelona in the Champions League.

The above-mentioned performances are all based on the premise of stable and high-level performance in the domestic league.They performed well in all competitions and received honors.

I feel the same way about coaches, greatness is defined by trophies.

Whether you accept it or not, this statement will continue to haunt you.Because when Kane really reaches world class, when we look back at the history of Tottenham and the England team, his contribution will be an unavoidable topic.

And what about Zhang Mai?Although Zhang Mai has been ahead of Kane in terms of personal honors, the two have a common goal, which is to gain more honors in the European and world arenas!
