Super Coach

First, Davis was injured when the Netherlands played against the Czech Republic.

This wild midfielder, who had just been appointed as the captain of the Dutch national team by Van Basten, was tested by the national team doctor after the game. It was determined that the collision was caused by a violent physical collision. He injured the ligament in his shoulder and suffered a partial tear. It is initially estimated that he will be out for 4 weeks.

After learning the news, Yang Cheng immediately arranged for Chris Schmidt to rush to the Netherlands as soon as possible, bring Davis back to Liverpool, and conduct a very careful test, and finally got the same answer.

However, misfortunes never come singly. In the second round of the league, Liverpool, which was severely affected by the FA virus, unexpectedly lost 0:1 to Bolton Wanderers in an away game. The main players returned to the national competition, and their state and physical fitness were greatly affected.

In the fifth round of the league, Liverpool faced newly promoted West Bromwich Albion at home.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Drogba was carried off the Anfield field on a stretcher by the team doctor. Yang Cheng looked helplessly as Drogba passed by him, and he had to comfort him. This Ivorian elephant king.

Larsson hurriedly warmed up and replaced Drogba.

The final result of the game was that Liverpool beat West Bromwich Albion 5-0, but the price in exchange was that Liverpool had to accept Drogba's departure for at least 6 weeks.

On September 15, Liverpool welcomed last season’s Champions League runner-up Monaco at home.

Many people say that the Champions League final is a watershed. The winner, Mourinho, has become famous. He has taken over Chelsea this season and created a whirlwind in the Premier League. So far, he has maintained a complete victory and has become the leader he is today. A dazzling rising star in football, while the loser Deschamps has become a meteor, sinking with Monaco this season.

There is no suspense. Liverpool defeated Monaco 2-0 at home with goals from Larsson and Carragher and won their first victory in the European Champions League group stage.

On September 18, Liverpool visited Old Trafford to face Manchester United.

Losing Davis and Drogba has greatly affected Liverpool's entire midfield and frontcourt.

In this game, Changersen arranged a double forward combination of Rooney and Jielan, followed by Giggs, Keane, Scholes and Solskjaer. The team returned to a balanced position.

Liverpool arranged a trident combination of Larsson, Ronaldinho and Robben, and arranged Essien, Carrick and Gerrard in the midfield, while Riise, Hyypia and Carragher were arranged in the defense. and Gaga Johnson,

Finnan was injured during pre-match training.

The result was a squad that was overwhelmed by Ferguson's side from the start at Old Trafford.

From the beginning of the game, Manchester United took advantage of their home court advantage and launched a fierce attack on Liverpool's right wing. Giga Johnson was unable to withstand Giggs, and Liverpool was forced to focus on defending their right wing.

The game was very intense, but in the first minute of the second half, the Liverpool defense made a pass error. Rooney intercepted the ball and passed it behind him. Diego Forlan scored with a poke and scored for Manchester United to open the scoring.

This goal almost detonated the entire Old Trafford stadium, and all Manchester United fans were looking forward to defeating Liverpool.

I have said before that without Drogba, as long as they suppress Liverpool's midfield, they will be helpless!

In front of the home team's coaching bench, Wei Gessen looked very excited. In the contest between him and Yang Cheng, he always lost more than he won. Especially after looking at the Premier League in hindsight, Manchester United defeated Liverpool in one game, but in the After losing a humiliating 0:4 at Old Trafford, if they cannot save their face as soon as possible, Manchester United will inevitably have a dwarf mentality when they meet Liverpool in the future.

If you look at it purely from a tactical level, Manchester United has many problems, such as the problem of ball propulsion, which has always troubled Manchester United, causing them to fail to win many points-grabbing games against weak teams.

Liverpool has done well in this regard. Several big wins have allowed Liverpool to grab enough points from the underdogs, not to mention the Chelsea team that has already won 1 goal difference and won 3 games 1:0.

The lessons from the previous Community Shield Cup made Pinggesen change his tactical thinking in this game. He saw the absence of Davis, Drogba and Finnan, and decisively adopted a simpler and more brutal midfield suppression.

Ferguson knows better than anyone what kind of player Keane is. His coverage area defense, control of the team's rhythm, control of the situation, etc., can all be regarded as virtual. The biggest effect is to stimulate the team's spirit.

Football is an 11-person sport. How can all 11 players be united?

Rely on thought!

Trust, trust, respect...

As a captain, Keane can bring more to the team than tactics.

Just like in this game, he led his teammates to suppress Liverpool's midfield from the beginning, and the Red Army was suppressed.

This feeling is very depressing. Liverpool has strength, but they can't use it on the court and can only be beaten passively. Why?

The momentum is lost!

Of course, Ferguson's tactics were also on the right track. He suppressed the midfield, but Carrick did not perform very well throughout the game. It was difficult to make several passes accurately, losing his previous accuracy, and handling the ball too few times. Too casual.

Ferguson is very satisfied with the team's performance on the court. He has directed the team to the point of exerting all his strength. On the other hand, looking at Yang Cheng in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, although there is not much movement, he must be very anxious at this time. That's right.

Last season was just an accident. Manchester United will always be Manchester United, and they will always be the terrible Red Devils that can trample their opponents under their feet! Ferguson said with confidence, holding his head high. The time jumped steadily to 70 minutes. Liverpool was still passive on the scene. The midfield was suppressed, and the offense and counterattack were very chaotic. There was not much threat. The few threatening attacks relied on Robben and Xiaoli. Ronaldinho's rapid advancement on both wings can be said to be a reflection of their personal abilities, but it has always been difficult to work.

We need to be steady! Benitez said from the side.

Yang Cheng also knew it. He folded his hands in front of his chest and watched the game silently.

Andre, go warm up! Yang Cheng turned around.

Paul Bayer was nearby. After hearing this, he immediately went to the bench and shouted out Asavin who was stunned.

The boss asked you to warm up, hurry up! Paul, Bayer knew how tense the situation was now.

Ashavin nodded immediately, ran to the distance to warm up for two or three minutes, and then ran back.

You go up and replace Carrick, play the shadow forward, let Gerrard withdraw, hold the ball more, and cut in from the middle! Yang Cheng made a kitchen knife chopping motion with his right hand and waited until Asavin nodded before continuing. , You can be more active and free, and cooperate more with the two wings and Larsson in front!

Ashawen took the order and went there, holding a note written by Yang Cheng in his temple.

Carrick's performance in this game was very average. Without the previous highlights, he was jointly suppressed by Scholes and Keane, which made him exhausted. He has rarely been under such strong pressure. ,too tired.

Go back and take a good... bath and think about this game. Yang Cheng hugged him, patted him on the back and sent him into the tunnel. After Keane and Scholes joined forces, He was indeed holding on very hard under the restraint.

The boss asked me to give it to you! After Arshavin came on the stage, he conveyed Yang Cheng's intention. After everyone was confirmed, they immediately followed the instructions, but just when Gerald was about to walk away, the Russian handed it over. A folded note.

How long will you continue to be afraid? That's what was written on the note.

Gerrard turned around, and Yang Cheng stared at the player in the distance. It was unclear who he was looking at, but it gave Gerrard the illusion that he was looking at him.

Hyypia is a very good player. He is low-key, tolerant, and strong. He can be called a role model. But a good player may not necessarily be a good captain. At least a qualified captain should be brave at such critical times. He stepped forward and led the team to break Manchester United's imprisonment.

Why can Keane ban the current Liverpool but cannot ban Arsenal?

Because the Gunners have a Vieira!

Liverpool also needs to have its own Vieira, a soul and captain who can represent his team!

Am I scared? Gerrard's attention returned to the court, but he asked himself in his heart.

Liverpool have been scared for many, many years.

After the two tragedies, David Morse decided to reform after taking office. However, Souness's reforms brought about a traditional purge. While the team was in a state of decline, it also lost many of its original qualities. Precious things, the club's culture has experienced a rupture in inheritance, and the hearts of the entire Liverpool community have begun to fall apart.

Since then, Liverpool have been in constant panic. It’s not that they don’t know they need to change, but they are afraid of experiencing another turmoil like Souness. Maintaining stability has become Liverpool’s creed. , so they clearly know that they cannot keep up with the times, and they clearly know that they have many problems, but they still dare not take that step.

Because they are afraid of moving.

This fear has always occupied the hearts of Liverpool people. They are no longer as fearless as they were in the Shankly era!

From the management to the players, they are all afraid. They want to change, but they are afraid of making changes. They want to win, but they are afraid of losing...

Yang Cheng's arrival has given Liverpool a new opportunity. The club is undergoing reforms, but where are the players? Isn’t it time to get rid of the inner demons? Couldn't a Premier League championship re-establish confidence among the people in Liverpool?

Thinking of this, Gerald couldn't help but gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. His eyes were wide open and bloodshot, showing his excitement at this moment.

Only Liverpool people can understand the spirit of Liverpool and lead Liverpool!

Keane intercepted the ball from Asavin's feet. Seeing that there was no one around, he chose to dribble the ball forward. But just when he was about to dribble the ball forward, Gerrard suddenly rushed out with a diagonal stab. , fell to the ground fiercely and shoveled Keane to the ground.

Keane suddenly jumped up from the ground. Although Gerrard restrained his movements and was not vicious, he was knocked to the ground by a junior. This was a shame for him.

Are you looking for death? Keen rushed forward.

Do you dare to say it again? Gerald pushed back without giving in.

The referee was nearby, and Keane stared at Gerrard fiercely, as if he wanted to swallow the Englishman.

The two of them were pushing the bull without giving an inch, and Hyypia rushed up again and separated the two of them, You'd better be polite, Keen!

I'm sorry to your mother! Keen said harshly. .

Send QBU! Gerrard broke away from Hyypia who was pointing at him, pointed at Kean and cursed angrily, as if he was a bull, trying to rush up and kill Kean.

The referee immediately rushed over and gave each of the two irrational players a yellow card. He also warned them that they had better restrain their tempers, otherwise he will be even more severe next time than now.

Liverpool used to have a fiery Davis in their midfield, but now that Davis is absent, Gerrard has finally stepped up, but the Red Devils fans in the stands at Old Trafford have no regard for this unscrupulous boy. Cold, they all used their own boos and curses to greet this kid, reminding him that this is the Old Trafford Stadium, our mortal enemy!

Ignore that bastard! Hyypia pulled Gerald back.

Gerald sighed dismissively. Drooling, he turned back...slowly stepped back and looked at Keen in the distance, I must kill him to prevent him from being so arrogant again!

This made Hyypia a little surprised... something came to his mind.

Soon, the two had another direct face-to-face contest.

Keane and Scholes cooperated in a one-two. After Gerrard was passed, he caught up from behind, used his body and speed to forcefully overtake, squeezed past Keane, and forcibly knocked his The ball was intercepted and kicked directly into the stands.

I saw Gerrard waving his hands excitedly after breaking a Manchester United attack... encouraging the fans in the stands, as if to say, Ps, you are all afraid. Yet? Where are your roars, your cries...?

Gerrard's vigorous waving of his arms not only aroused the passion of the fans on both sides of the stands, but also infected every Liverpool player on the pitch.

He passed by his teammates one by one, encouraging them one by one in his own way...either with fists, or hugs...or comfort, or roaring in a passionate manner.

He circled around Kean in a show-off manner, and finally returned to his position, staring at Kean like a hungry hero. He stretched out his hand to casually wipe the sweat from his face, and spoke word by word. Said: You're dead, Keane!

The Manchester United captain also stared at Gerrard with sadness. This was the first time he felt threatened by this opponent.

As if inspired by Gerrard, Liverpool's performance improved greatly.

Gerrard and Essien played as a double midfielder. Logically speaking, both of them lacked positional sense, so after seeing the improvement in the team's performance, Yang Cheng simply pressed forward, with Luo Luo and Larsson in front. A number of players attacked Manchester United's defense, and Ashavin, who had a relatively free range of activities, was placed behind him.

The characteristic of the Russian is technology, and his weakness is his body. Giving him enough freedom means that he can play to his strengths and avoid too many physical confrontations with his opponents. Moreover, there is another one behind him, Essien. And the protection of Gerrard allows him to attack Manchester United's defense with all his strength.

In the first minute, Asavin retreated to get the ball. After getting rid of Scholes, he passed the ball to the forward Gerrard.

Larsson has a strong sense of cooperation and excellent tactical skills, which makes it easy for him to integrate into Liverpool's tactical system. Therefore, when he saw Ashavin retreating, he immediately followed suit. Outside the restricted area.

He doesn't have the height advantage of Drogba, but he has something that Drogba doesn't have.

After Larsson came out of the penalty area, he did not stay here to prepare for the response like Drogba did, but more like running back. After pulling Silvester out, he immediately turned around and rushed forward.

He didn't run blindly, but stared at the rhythm point of Gerrard's pass.

Because he just pulled out... Ronaldinho and Robben quickly cut in from both sides, distracting the defender's attention for him, so he pushed forward himself, and there was only one person blocking him. Silvestre blocked the back, and Gerrard's pass went over the heads of the players, including Larsson, to the right side of the goal.

The ball was very comfortable. Larson quickly moved forward, stared at the ball, turned sideways, volleyed with one foot, stepped out to meet the ball, and shot with one foot.

Howard struck out, but the ball quickly went into the net from his left side!

Andy and Gray couldn't help but stood up from their seats and let out a wild cry.

Throughout the stands of the Old Trafford Stadium, Liverpool fans were shouting excitedly towards the stadium.

The equalizer!

Liverpool equalized the score in the 89th minute with Larsson's volley!

This is a very beautiful penetration and running combination!

The players of Manchester United were protesting and believed that Robben was in an offside position just now. However, we saw in slow motion that although Robben was offside, he was not involved in the game. According to FIFA's latest offside rule, , as long as he doesn’t get involved in the game and doesn’t interfere with the goalkeeper, it’s not offside!”

Larsson had already rushed to the side of the court excitedly. Every Liverpool player rushed over excitedly, and a group of people hugged tightly. Gerrard even pulled his teammates hard.

The game is not over yet, we don't want a tie, we want to win! Gerrard almost shouted.

After the Liverpool players dispersed, they all quickly ran back to the pitch, waiting for the game to restart.

From their eyes, the Manchester United players seemed to feel the almost humiliating 0:4 at Old Trafford last season. The group of Liverpool players at that time also had this look. One by one, They are all like tigers and wolves, full of hunger and thirst, as if they are the vengeful gods of death from hell.

The formations of both sides were re-arranged, and everyone in Liverpool was staring ahead. They were paying attention to the goal guarded by Howard in the distance. That was their goal in the next few minutes. They had to give everything they had in the last few minutes. Ability to score Manchester United's goal again.

They want to leave the nightmare at Old Trafford once again!

They want to make sure that every time Manchester United players encounter Liverpool in the future, they will feel terrified!

Don't you, Manchester United, always say that you are the strongest overlord in the Premier League?

Well, we will crush you all under our feet, we will be the strongest! ! .
