My football skills are so strong! I am the king of control

"I've heard that Barnett has great connections, but I didn't expect that he has already extended his claws to the Transfermarkt rankings!"

"So these days, as long as you're a young player and you can play well, you can have such a high price?"

……

Remarks like these are all over the Internet. Manchester United fans certainly don't want to see a superstar emerge from Liverpool.

After all, Manchester United and Liverpool are absolute enemies, and the grudges between the two sides have a long history. Football has evolved into the ultimate weapon of confrontation between the two cities in terms of culture, economy, and social construction.

When Manchester United had Martial, fans often sang this song.

"We have the money, we have Martial and Liverpool have nothing."

But now Lin Chen's sudden appearance is unacceptable to Manchester United fans.

Barnett was worried that these doubts would affect Lin Chen's mentality. However, when he came to Lin Chen's room on the morning of September 9 with the Hua Xia pot stickers and Hua Xia soy milk he had specially bought, the latter was lying on the bed playing Pro Evolution Soccer.

"Fuck, this bastard planner!"

"If you can't do the celebration, get out of here and let me do it!"

Lin Chen cursed and glimpsed the pot stickers in Barnett's hand out of the corner of his eye.

"Great, how do you know I love pot stickers?"

Lin Chen couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth. Then an inexplicable feeling came over him and goose bumps instantly spread all over his body.

"Ugh!!!" Lin Chen vomited.

"Barnett, promise me that you won't buy English-style Chinese food in England. Even dogs won't eat it."

"Spanish food in England is pretty good."

Although the pot stickers were hard to swallow, the soy milk had a unique flavor. Lin Chen quickly guessed why Barnett came to him.

"The second round of the Champions League group stage will begin soon."

"Don't worry Barnett, I'll shut these guys up."

Barnett looked at Lin Chen and felt that there was a very special aura about the young man in front of him.

Confident but not conceited, with a hint of steadiness, yet containing the youthfulness unique to young people.

On September 9, the third round of the English League Cup kicked off and Liverpool replaced their entire rotation lineup.

Since Professor Wenger started, the Carabao Cup, as an additional cup competition in English football compared to the other four major leagues, has gradually evolved into a competition for training young players.

Klopp fielded four young players from the youth training system, and their opponent was the weak Cambridge United.

In the end, Liverpool, with a full rotation, defeated Cambridge United 3:1 and successfully advanced to the fourth round.

All the main players have had enough rest, and Liverpool is in the best condition to prepare for the second round of the Champions League group stage, against Shakhtar Donetsk.

September 9, pre-match tactical analysis room.

"Everyone thought Shakhtar Donetsk would be at the bottom of the death group, but they slaughtered Monaco 3-0 in the first round, which instantly attracted attention from all parties," said Coach Zhang.

"In the first round, Miners showed strong offensive power and pressing tactics. Their style is a bit similar to that of Liverpool today."

Klopp has repeatedly emphasized in training these days:

"We must show our best and take opponents like Shakhtar seriously!"

"From the first minute of the game, we need to get into the game as quickly as possible, and then start playing a tactic of flank breakthrough combined with high pressure!"

"We need to focus on the transition between offense and defense, and the speed of counterattack, so as not to give the miners any chance to breathe!"

After in-depth research, Klopp and Kravitz found that the Shakhtar's tactical style was indeed very similar to Liverpool's.

When the same style of play is in play, whoever can play at a higher tempo and have faster transitions will have the advantage on the court.

October 9, 21pm European time.
