Chapter 490: Liverpool is in turmoil

In the post-match press conference, Benitez appeared restrained.

Although Liverpool won this game by a big margin, Gerrard, who scored a hat-trick, became the protagonist for other reasons.

"Mr. Benitez, what is the reason for Gerrard's refusal?"

"Steve is a fighter and he wants to fight with his teammates."

"But don't you think that's provoking the coach's authority?"

'It's a derby, it's good that the players are motivated and I want every player to learn from Steve's fighting spirit, which is very important.'

"But what if the other players do the same?"

'You can rest assured that there is no problem with the players' minds at all and we will solve this problem privately.

"So Gerald won't be punished?"

"Steve has always been the flag and soul of the team, I want to emphasise that this is just a captain who wants to fight with his team-mates, he understands what he is doing, although I was angry at the beginning, but I can understand his feelings, I believe he will understand my intentions, I hope he doesn't get hurt again, it's a very interesting thing, we are all thinking about each other, a bit like O. Henry's little story 'The Gift of the Maggie'."

"How do you feel about STONE, who has once again extended his streak of goals?"

"Feelings? I can't say exactly how I feel because I've never seen a player like this, can you imagine how many goals he will score if he plays like this? I even think he will make history, even if the Chinese team plays in the World Cup, he can win the Golden Ball! ”

"No one, no one can stop Stone."

Benitez made a final response, and then got up for the press conference, his mood was definitely not as calm as he appeared, but he didn't want to show it, because he didn't have the ability to change, players of Raul and Gerrard's level have more symbolic significance for the team than the competitive value, once there is a conflict with this kind of player, the average coach can't bear it at all.

......

It's a little embarrassing to say, Wu Sanshi, who has just come of age, has not yet obtained a driver's license, and can only exist as the team's car king.

At first, I was a little embarrassed, thinking that I would take the driver's license as soon as I became an adult, but later I found out that it was really cool to rub the car!

Being able to sit in the back to catch up on sleep, Suarez is like a full-time driver.

However, at the end of today's race, he deliberately took Gerrard's car.

The luxurious leather seats, the mechanical wind is very strong, Gerrard's expression definitely does not look like he just scored a hat trick to help the team win the derby, Wu Sanshi, who doesn't know how to speak, can only look left and right.

It was Gerald who spoke first, "Are you interested, kid?" I'm the spokesperson of Jaguar, and I have a big discount when I buy a car, so if you have the model you want, you can tell me. ”

"It's okay, it's the first time I've sat in this car, and Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW are more popular in our country."

Gerald smiled and turned on the radio, and the sound inside was magnetic, the song "All About You" by a local British band 'Peter Pan', the voice was unhurried and softer than their other works.

"If you're interested in having a holiday tomorrow, I can accompany you to see those brands you mentioned, there's no man who doesn't like cars."

"I don't have a driver's license yet."

"It's easy to get a driver's license, so it's no problem to choose a car first."

"Well, well, but Captain, you should know why I'm sitting here."

Gerrard, who was holding the steering wheel, smiled and teased, "Persuade me and the coach to apologize?" Haha, man, when I was your age, I was too scared to speak when I saw the first team players, and I often had to brush their shoes, let alone persuade the captain. ”

"Come on~" Wu Sanshi looked at the captain of the comic with some helplessness, "Old guy, the times are different, you said that when you were as old as me before, you didn't score more than 20 goals at the end of November." ”

"You bastard is a real underwhelming." Gerald gave him a punch with his right hand, and Wu Sanshi screamed for him to drive well, and the atmosphere was a little better, not as embarrassing as it was at first.

After a while, Gerrard explained his behaviour to him, "It's not the first time, he always wants me to get me off the pitch, he wants to lock me in a safe with a foam gun and a box, but I'm a professional player, Liverpool's captain, am I more expensive than the rest of my team-mates?" Others are not afraid of getting hurt? I can't just let my teammates go away, as long as I'm not physically wrong, I don't leave my teammates and go to the fucking wet field, I've played a lot in the mud with my teammates in the youth team. ”

"But this kind of thing has to have someone to bow their heads, either you or the coach, I think it's hard for that Spanish fat guy to bow his head, you will affect the atmosphere in the dressing room."

"I know what to do, so let's talk about what car you should buy."

Since he didn't want to say it, Wu Sanshi couldn't do it, Gerald was sometimes very stubborn, and continuing to persuade him in this situation would only make him disgusted.

......

Sure enough, Gerrard's refusal to play caused an uproar and became the hottest topic in European football this weekend.

As Liverpool's 'old friend', The Sun said that there was a problem in the Liverpool dressing room: Torres was followed by Gerrard, Benitez seemed to have lost control of the dressing room, and while they were soaring, their internal rifts were getting bigger and bigger, the fortified city was forever breached from the inside, Liverpool's results in the coming period would be greatly affected, and their championship dreams were still dreams.

Torres, who has not been seen for a long time, also said in an interview that the atmosphere in the team's dressing room is very quirky, that no one wants to listen to Benitez, who is an undesirable character in the Liverpool team.

Their report was quickly reprinted because of Torres' testimony.

Following.

Wu Sanshi chose to clarify some questions with reporters after the training.

"Heh, there's no credibility to Torres' words, he's a reserve player, how can he understand the atmosphere of the first team."

This sentence alone is enough to make reporters confess.

That's right

Torres has gone to the reserves to dominate, and given the tension between him and Benitez, there is no credibility in his words.

The answer from the mouths of several other players is also that there is no problem in the Liverpool team, and the bastards of Fleet Street also understand that this is the way things are, but no problem what they write, reporters also have to eat, and they can't use love to generate electricity!

Except for Wu Sanshi's interview, which got a small tofu block, other people's answers did not appear in the newspaper at all.

The whole of Europe is singing about Liverpool, from the conflict between Benitez and the team's top management at the beginning of the season, to the scandal of Steven Gerrard, then to Torres's resignation to the reserves, and finally to Gerrard's refusal to play, everything has been translated and written by them.

Be an insider, another player who doesn't want to be named.

In their portrayal, the Liverpool dressing room is more complex than the harem struggle in ancient China, and is even divided into several different factions.

The soaring Liverpool is in turmoil, Benitez's boat is about to capsize, and even Liverpool fans are already debating whether to let the 'King' Dalglish come back to clean up the old mountains and rivers.

......

The atmosphere in Liverpool's dressing room is not as bad as the media portrays, but it is not harmonious, and there is almost no communication between the most important players in midfield, the captain and the coach, which looks strange no matter how you look at it.

However, because of media reports, some players are fluctuating, and the problem is gradually worsening.

Eventually, Gerard made his choice.

The day before he left for France, he attended a press conference with Benitez.

The Liverpool captain told reporters, "I definitely don't want to challenge the authority of the coach, I just want to fight with my team-mates. But my behaviour has affected the coach and the team, so I would like to apologize to the coach and our fans and team-mates for not being what a good captain should do, and I have been reflecting on it for a few days. ”

Benitez also graciously accepted Gerrard's apology and staged a play before leaving for Lyon.

Lyon are the strongest opponents in the group, and they are still playing away, but the Liverpool players are not nervous at all. The players sitting in the back row were okay to glance at the coaching staff in the front row and discuss in whispers.

What to discuss?

Of course, it's not a question of whether macarons are good or not!

"I've heard that French women are very open?"

"They're the country that cheats the most, and you don't have to worry about them sticking to you!" Aquilani is clearly looking forward to the upcoming trip and has made a point of offering an Italian-language newspaper that Benitez might have replaced Lucas if he were half as passionate about football.

Seeing the newspaper testifying, the Liverpool players were much more interested.

Even captain Steven Gerrard was in high spirits, and Suarez jumped up and down.

Wu Sanshi had no interest, and sat for a hundred years with his eyes closed.

Suarez sneakily pulled Kuyt up and said, "Hey, man! Dirk said that Dutch girls are more enthusiastic and beautiful than France, and he is obviously jealous that I am more prepared. ”

These two bastards are married, and they don't know what to be excited about.

Wu Sanshi didn't pay attention to the two second-class goods at all, they were both strong mouths, Suarez and Kuyt's private lives were very clean, compared to Gerrard, he was a little surprised that he was still jumping like this, and he was also a hero, and the hero also had weaknesses.

In the Netherlands, it's easy to hang out with the girls at night! ”

"It's not as good as France, and I've heard that some women have several relationships. Person! ”

Not to be outdone, Kuyt responded, "I've seen my neighbor's hostess and different men holding hands on the street!" ”

"Holding hands doesn't mean there's something wrong with them, maybe it's a matter of politeness, or that the hands are too cold."

"But I saw them go to the hotel!"

"Going to the hotel may just be a rest, the things in your head are too dirty!"

Listening to the dispute between the two goods, Wu Sanshi was very helpless, and suddenly he hoped that the atmosphere in the locker room would not be so harmonious, and it might be better as the media wrote.
