On January 30, Suarez will be called up to the national team, and in order to prevent him from being too tired and injured, the team will schedule him to rest for the match against Fulham on the 27th. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Of course, he won't be able to play against Southampton on January 30.

However, the good thing is that Southampton is only an opponent in League One, and it is also the twentieth place in League One, and it is basically a team that is on the verge of relegation, facing them, the fourth round of the FA Cup is basically pressure-free.

Not only Suarez, but also some players who are not rotated often, such as Carragher, such as Meriles.

It seems that Meriles is back in form after returning from injury, but Dalglish still thinks he needs to rest.

And some players, too, need playing time, such as Diego Godin.

During this period, Liverpool has played a lot of home games, and it is a good time to seize the time to get points, and several other strong teams are also struggling on other lines, and the recent period is the time for them to chase points.

If Liverpool survive this period, there is a good chance that they will lead until the end of the season.

Therefore, against Fulham, although Liverpool did not come up with a full main lineup, they still wanted to pursue victory.

And in this game, Liverpool changed their formation again and played as a single striker.

Or rather, a strikerless formation.

In the formation of 4231, Wang Zhen can be withdrawn at any time and evolve a very popular strikerless formation with his midfield teammates in the past two years.

If it is for an ordinary team, then it is obviously taboo to change the formation at two ends in three days, and it is not very acceptable even for Haoqiang.

Dalglish, on the other hand, believes in not fighting unprepared battles, but prepares as many tactical routines as possible to use against strong teams in the Champions League.

Having met AC Milan in the quarter-finals, there is no doubt that if Liverpool can go all the way, then the rest of the opponents will not be surprised, and they are definitely strong teams.

Moreover, Liverpool has always had this tradition, after all, the last coach was Benitez, and Benitez's favorite thing to do is to play in a lineup that some media can't guess.

Dalglish's lineup layout is actually selective, for example, if you want to practice positional battles, you must find a team with a stronger defense to practice, otherwise the opponent will not cooperate and you will not be able to practice.

Moreover, this is the eighteenth round of the make-up round, and just a week later, the twenty-fifth round of the game against Stoke City, in some sense, the two teams have a lot of similarities and just try this formation in succession.

From the very beginning of this game, people saw a lot of different things.

First of all, there is Fulham's style of play.

Fulham built up three lines of defence in their own half, the first being forward pressing, which has become more and more important in football since the success of Mainz.

The second line of defense is the midfield joint defense at the top of the penalty area.

The reason why they say that they are joint defenses, rather than chain defenses, is because their defense is actually a trapezoidal position, not a parallel position.

The third line of defense is more special, with two defenders, behind the four midfielders, forming a stout central axis, while the two full-backs, directly to the front, are mentioned higher than the midfield defense.

This kind of defense has a very strong purpose, that is, to prevent Liverpool from starting on the wing, preventing penetration in the middle, and resolutely refusing Liverpool to play ground cooperation in their own half.

The weakness is also obvious, that is, if Liverpool are willing to rush, Fulham will give up defending the hanging.

In other words, prevent close-range coordination, prevent breakaways, and don't defend to get the ball.

Give you a chance to get the ball, and if you can score a goal, resign yourself to it.

This is a defensive strategy that is willing to dare to pull the emperor off the horse.

Perhaps Mark Hughes has been studying this lineup for a long time, presumably after Liverpool showed their ability to coordinate on the ground.

By the way, this defensive strategy has the same effect on Arsenal and Manchester United.

Liverpool's attacking approach is also very simple, that is, all the players in the midfield and backfield send shells into the penalty area.

If it doesn't work once, it will be twice, and if it doesn't work twice, it will be four times, in a word, giving up the success rate is hard.

On the one hand, it is also the rest of Suarez's hesitation.

On the other hand, Liverpool are sure to let Wang Zhen wade through Fulham's defence alone.

The reason is very simple, after the two fullbacks forcibly raised the high position, there were two central defenders in the penalty area, and it was impossible for the two of them to concentrate on Wang Zhen alone, because Wang Zhen still had the ability to pass the ball.

In this case, it is impossible for them to block Wang Zhen's choice in both directions.

Fulham blocked Wang Zhen's right foot.

As for the left foot, Mark Hughes looks ready to resign himself to fate.

Wang Zhen did not disappoint them either, repeatedly attempting to shoot from the right side.

The result is obvious, no matter how good a player is, after all, he is just one person, and most of the time he will end in defeat in the face of a systematic defense.

However, in the second half, Wang Zhen began to try his left foot.

This time, it was out of control.

Brad Hangrande couldn't block Wang Zhen's two options, he had to block the right side.

Therefore, Wang Zhen's left foot has repeatedly created threats.

But Mark Hughes didn't react because his aim was to steal a point.

He firmly believes that Wang Zhen's right foot is of course better than Wang Zhen's left foot, and if he insists on putting it aside and can't relax his header, he can only choose to block his right foot.

To be honest, for Wang Zhen, this is equivalent to helping him practice backfoot sparring for free.

In the 63rd minute, Wang Zhen finally hit an extremely tricky shot with his left foot, and Schwarzer didn't have much to do to watch the football enter the goal.

As soon as Liverpool took the lead, Fulham began to fluctuate.

Because after conceding a goal, there is no point in holding on.

As a result, Fulham's choice to impact Liverpool's midfield began to play a huge role.

Fulham repeatedly failed to attack and were counter-attacked.

In the end, in the 70th minute, Wang Zhen received a pass from Gerrard, shot with his left foot again, and scored twice with his left foot.

"It's like cheating, if you stick to the positional war, then Wang Zhen is like a battering ram, Yi Cui hammer down, will always destroy the strongest defense, if the opponent dares to attack, then Liverpool's entire midfield will become a big dragon, the entire central axis is hard and scary."

Whether it is defending or attacking, it is a loss, the difference is only that whether it is a boiled frog in warm water, or being slaughtered with a knife, the sorrow of life is nothing more than this.

However, the Liverpool players don't have those ideas, they take them for granted.

Since the beginning of the season, the crazy physical reserves, and then the crazy lineup practice, running in the lineup, and now it's hard to practice something, and if you can't get a small opponent, what else to play?

In the end, the score was fixed at 2-0, Wang Zhen scored two goals alone, and Liverpool won easily at home.

And this once again verifies that Wang Zhen's backfoot is really at a level.

Three days later, in the fourth round of the FA Cup at home, Southampton played in the third division of League One, and Liverpool won the game neatly 3-0.

In the first half, again and again, he attacked again and again, and won a three-goal advantage.

In the second half, he accompanied Southampton to play tactical exercises, won the game easily, and successfully advanced to the fifth round.

Next, it will be the 25th round of the league, playing Stoke City at home.
