484、All-round confrontation (1st update)
"Chu-Chu Ge!"
"Chu-Chu Ge!"
As Chu Ge walked onto the pitch, the deafening shouts caused Old Trafford to shake.
Every Manchester United player will receive applause from the home fans.
And the applause that Chu Ge received was undoubtedly the warmest.
Listening to the shouts of the fans in the audience, looking at the familiar black-haired boy, the corners of Lin Murong's mouth rose slightly.
Her big black and white eyes reflected the bright red jersey of the teenager.
Although she has never been to Old Trafford, Lin Murong is no stranger to Chu Ge's recent situation.
She understands the love that Manchester United fans have for Chu Ge.
However, on paper, it is ultimately shallow.
Coming to this stadium in person, witnessing the thunderous applause of the fans in the stadium, from the excited expressions and enthusiastic shouts of every Manchester United fan, Lin Murong really felt how much they liked and supported Chu Ge.
"That's good."
She couldn't help but sigh.
……
Manchester United's line-up for this game is still 433.
De Gea; Valencia, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Luke Shaw; Kante, Herrera, Pogba; Anthony Martial, Ibrahimovic, Chu Ge.
Liverpool's starting formation is also 433.
Mignolet; Milner, Clavan, Lovren, Alexander Arnold; Jen, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino.
……
Southampton, Hampshire, England.
Van Dijk turned on the TV in his home and started watching Manchester United's match against Liverpool.
This game is the last game of this round of the Premier League.
Yesterday, Virgil van Dijk's side lost 1-0 to Burnley.
Van Dijk did well, but the team eventually lost.
After the defeat, Southampton are provisionally in 10th place in the Premier League.
The club was happy with the result, but Van Dijk had something else in mind.
After communicating with his agent, he basically agreed to move to Liverpool.
But before the actual transfer, he wants to see this match between Liverpool and Manchester United.
Manchester United are currently second in the league.
If they are consistent for the rest of the season, they will at least secure a Champions League place next season, if not to win the title.
Liverpool, on the other hand, are currently in fourth place.
Not much more than the points for fifth and sixth place.
Whether they will be able to play in next season's Champions League is hard to say.
In any case, Van Dijk wants to join a team that has the ability to pursue better results.
……
It's not just Van Dijk who is keeping an eye on the Reds.
Chelsea folks such as Diego Costa, Antonio Conte and Eden Hazard are also keeping an eye on the game.
In the 21st round of the Premier League, which has ended.
Chelsea continue to win.
They beat Leicester City by three goals to remain firmly at the top of the league table.
In the last round, Chelsea lost 2-0 at Tottenham Hotspur, suffering their first defeat in the league after 13 consecutive league wins.
Thanks to Manchester United's win over Crystal Palace.
Their lead in the standings was suddenly reduced by three points.
Chelsea won this round of fixtures and of course they want United to lose this round of fixtures.
That way their lead can be solidified.
Considering Manchester United's opponents in this round are Liverpool, the chances of the Chelsea man's wish becoming a reality are not low.
"Manchester United loses, and then this kid, and that kid, don't score, it's perfect!"
Diego Costa thought to himself as he looked at Chu Ge and Ibrahimovic on TV.
At present, on the league scorer list, Chu Ge ranks first with 16 goals.
Costa scored fourteen goals for second.
And Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez also scored fourteen goals.
In addition, Ibrahimovic scored thirteen goals, Harry Kane scored a hat-trick thirteen goals, and Everton striker Romelu Lukaku scored twelve goals.
There wasn't a big difference in the goals of all the people.
The competition for the scorer list is unprecedentedly fierce.
Costa did not score in this round and he certainly hopes that Chu Ge and Ibrahimovic will not score either.
That would give him a better chance of becoming the Premier League's Golden Boot this season.
……
"The game was very intense from the start, with players on both sides fighting for every inch of space on the pitch and alternating possession. Obviously, both Liverpool and Manchester United are ready for this game. They will all be hoping to win against their opponents and get the win in this high-profile match. ”
Zhan Jun sat in the studio, staring closely at the TV broadcast.
"Under Jurgen Klopp's side this season, Reds and Liverpool's football has put more emphasis on running and pressing up front. He always asks his players to keep pushing forward, to press the opposition, to create chaos at the back, and to use that chaos to create goals. ”
'It's a trick he's used to using when he's been at Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, and he's done pretty well since he moved to Liverpool.
"Today's Liverpool, with a compact style of play, dares to attack, and scores a lot of goals, has won the love of a large number of fans. However, it is precisely because of this style of play that the team presses very forward, and the shortcomings of the back line are naturally exposed, and the chain is often dropped during the game, causing the team to lose. ”
For Jurgen Klopp, the best way to improve the situation is undoubtedly to find a centre-back as strong as Hummels, who can withstand the pressure at the back and have a clear advantage in one-on-one duels. According to English media reports, Klopp's choice is the Dutch centre-back Van Dijk, who has played top defensive statistics at Southampton this season. ”
"However, it is interesting that their opponents, Manchester United, have also chosen Van Dijk as a reinforcement at the back."
"Manchester United and Liverpool are not only-for-tat on the pitch, but in the transfer market, the two teams have also set off a derby battle."
'The battle for Van Dijk is likely to continue for some time before it remains to be seen where Van Dijk will eventually move or stay at Southampton. However, in today's match on the court, who wins and who loses, after 90 minutes, you will immediately know. ”
Zhan Jun linked the match between the two teams to an off-field transfer.
Obviously, he knows a lot about the recent situation of both teams.
……
Judging from the nearly 30 minutes of the opening game, the Liverpool players have obviously strengthened their defense against Chu Ge. Obviously, they suffered the loss of the last round, and this time they will naturally pay more attention to Chu Ge, whenever Chu Ge gets the ball, there will always be two or three Liverpool players who take the initiative to press and limit Chu Ge's breakthrough and distribution. ”
"So far, Liverpool's tactics have been relatively successful."
