Chapter 528: Old Lei's Caution
Joke!
Liverpool's opponents are Manchester United, Chelsea, definitely not Tottenham, and he doesn't even care about Arsene Wenger's team, not to mention that your little brother in north London is simply laughing off his teeth.
Lao Lei drank two sips of water and continued to talk, which was quite instructive.
'Liverpool also lost to Chelsea this season and we won against Chelsea. All of this shows that we have a chance to win against everything. ”
"Stone is a big problem, I had a tactical plan with the players before the game, and for such a player, I can't be too prepared."
'But I have confidence in my players and I believe we will give Liverpool a big surprise today.'
After listening to Lao Lei's words, Benitez was even more disdainful, he could really brag.
He even played with his fingers in boredom.
I don't know how many managers said that they would arrange players to keep an eye on Wu Sanshi, but even if Wu Sanshi doesn't score, it can bring great help to the team, and now except for Terry and Ferdinand, he hasn't found a defender who can face Wu Sanshi one-on-one without suffering.
Although some teams did find a way to limit Wu Sanshi, two or three people can also be counted as one defense?
Wu Sanshi's playing characteristics determine that players who are not fast enough are difficult to deal with when facing him, the faster defenders in the Premier League are black and hard, and it is difficult to prevent Wu Sanshi if the ball quotient is not enough, he is too flexible, which is an unsolvable problem in itself, perhaps only fullbacks of the level of Maldini and Lahm can.
However, his thoughts did not affect Lao Lei's bragging, "Keane is also a strong striker, he has been in good form recently, and Defoe, so we are ready to play against each other in this game." ”
"Will Luka Modric play?"
'Luca is injured, but when Luca is injured, the team is united, although he is an important player, we definitely don't have player dependence, no one can play well without us......
Finally, when Redknapp finished speaking, Benitez lazily picked up the microphone.
This momentum alone makes Lao Lei's teeth itch, you roll up your arms and sleeves here to prepare for a decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City, but your opponent doesn't care as if he is playing at home, so he can't help but be angry.
"In today's game, there are some players who will rest."
"The league is always a very long stage and we can't play every game.
"There was a change in formation today and I hope to give you a good game."
"Is it a back three?"
'No, the formation today is 451 and Tottenham are a very strong team, so I chose to change the formation to meet the challenge they bring.
Hearing his words, Lao Lei's face turned red, don't think I didn't see your starting list, so rotated to deal with the challenges we bringed?
But Benitez has already given up the unnecessary thing of being cheeky, and said in a casual manner, "Glenn Johnson has actually recovered from injury, but I still arranged for Carragher to play full-back, just to deal with the threat of Tottenham on the left." ”
"But William Hill is not at all optimistic that Tottenham can stop Liverpool's progress."
"That's their actuary's problem, how can football be absolutely winning or losing." The Spaniard said with a smile.
"So do you think Stone can score in this game?"
'Maybe only God knows, but I hope he can score.'
......
The press conference made the journalists feel bored.
Lao Lei just won a game a few days ago and is ready to challenge Liverpool for the top spot.
But Benitez had a gangster face and didn't care at all, disappointing their expectations. People Lao Lei bragged, you should also blow it, it's best to do it at the press conference, they will have news to write after the game.
There really is no deep feud between Tottenham and Liverpool.
It must be said that they also have a common enemy - Manchester United.
Manchester United's famous song 'Glory belongs to Manchester United' is adapted from an American song, but the first fans to sing that song on the pitch are Tottenham fans, and their team song is 'Glory belongs to Tottenham', but who makes Manchester United famous, everyone knows that it is the Manchester United team song, which makes Tottenham fans very hurt, Manchester United is a thief who steals the team song in their eyes.
As for Liverpool and Manchester United, they are absolute rivals.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and neither team that wants to see Manchester United should have too much gunpowder in the first place.
However, Tottenham fans are a bit floating today, they are looking forward to bottoming out after the Devil's December crash, and want to use the leader to sacrifice the flag!
Before the game started, the stadium had already warmed up.
"The victory belongs to Tottenham."
"Only we are not afraid of Liverpool!"
'Since the beginning of the Premier League, you've won as many trophies as we do. Tottenham fans next to the away fans shouted frantically.
"It's time for you to see how good we are."
“Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur!”
※※※
Inside the away locker room.
Suarez is playing tricks.
"Hey guys, let's teach them a lesson!"
"Oh~" The Liverpool player replied weakly, Tottenham is really not a strong team.
"In order to win today's game, you should pass me the ball a lot."
"Phew~"
Lucas gave a thumbs up and shouted the most joyful, and the two quickly fell into a scene.
Carragher fart. He was beside Wu Sanshi, pointed at Suarez and scolded with a smile, "It's a headache for this guy!" ”
"I'm used to it."
"Steve didn't come today, he's at home with his daughter, so it's mainly up to you to perform."
Hearing Carragher's words, Wu Sanshi looked at him in surprise.
The deputy of the Liverpool team smiled brightly, and after half a sound, Wu Sanshi nodded heavily.
He understands what is going on, and it should be the respect he showed when he renewed his contract that made these veteran players very satisfied and recognized by them.
......
“stone!”
“stone!”
"Don't forget to pass me the ball!"
Suarez put his arms around Wu Sanshi's neck and shouted in Wu Sanshi's ears.
"Don't be too stingy, the shooter king is yours, at least give me the second place on the shooter list."
"Let's give them some color and see!"
Espanyol players poured out of the away dressing room......
※※※※
"Today's game is a make-up match for the 21st round of the league, and although Liverpool have played one game less, they are still as many as four points ahead of Manchester United."
'It's been a tight schedule this season and hopefully it won't affect the players' form.
'Liverpool made a lot of rotation today and their starting line-up was goalkeeper: Reina; Defenders: Insua, Gilgiacos, Skrtel, Carragher; Midfielders: Stone, Lucas, Aquilani, Mascherano, Albert Rivera; Striker: Suarez. ”
'With Benayoun, Glen Johnson and Ager on the bench today, it seems that Benitez has a lot of confidence in this game.
'Tottenham fielded the strongest squad they could field today, goalkeeper: Sererio Gomez; Defenders: Gareth Bale, Michael Dawson, Ledley King, Joel Luka; Midfielders: Kranica, Palacios, Jermaine Jenas, Luka Modric; Forwards: Robbie Keane, Defoe. ”
'Earlier Redknapp also said that Modric was not fit from injury, but the Croatian midfielder was in the starting line-up before the game started, and it was clear that he was setting off a smoke bomb.
"The game is about to start."
Beep –
This Tottenham team has many acquaintances, and when he began to see the starting list, Wu Sanshi still regretted that he couldn't play against Modric, but he didn't expect the other party to magically appear in the starting list.
Before the game began, he noticed that Bale had been staring at him.
It seems that the Welsh boy is interested in his position as the Premier League's No. 1 left-hand side.
Tottenham, who were the first to kick off, quickly passed the ball back to the back line, Dawson quickly played to the left, and Bale took the ball and began to run.
"Wow, it's so fast!"
'Bale is probably quicker than Stone and the play of the two wide players in this game is also a big eye-catcher.
The Welshman, who was energetic, didn't care about the requirements of Kranica in front of him, but just rushed along the sideline, and was cleared out of the sideline by the opposing Rivera.
"Even though he's fast with the ball, he's too lonely."
"Kranica was complaining to Bale, but Bale didn't seem to want to explain to him and went straight to the backfield."
Bell is proud to be an excellent Southampton product.
This Tottenham team has basically no one in mind except for Modric.
In the future, he may follow his idol Ryan Giggs to Manchester United, and Tottenham's level of team is really not enough.
Ridley King threw a throw-in, Mascherano completed a counter-steal, Aquilani half-turned and picked up a direct pass, and Wu Sanshi began the show.
rub
An arrow rushed behind Joel Luka, knocked the ball with the inside of his left foot, changed to the right and rushed directly into the penalty area.
Dawson defended quickly, Wu Sanshi swiped to the right and sent a through pass, Suarez turned to complete the shot.
syllable
Off!
Suarez, who missed the opportunity, quickly ran over and put his arms around Wu Sanshi's neck and explained, "The feet are not hot at the beginning, and it will definitely be no problem to pass the ball more." ”
"You have to trust me."
"I have a hunch that I can score a hat-trick today."
For a good friend who has no skin and no face, Wu Sanshi doesn't have a good way.
'Both sides played well on the left.
'Stone is a bit more technical than Bale, but Bale is faster and I feel like the Tottenham full-back should be the fastest in the Premier League.
"Both of them have a strong impact and are pleasing to watch with the ball, so I'm looking forward to the next games more and more."
But in the opening stages, it was not the two left-sided players who became the protagonists.
In the 5th minute, Jenas was given to the right side, and Luka Modric happened to be opposite Wu Sanshi, and Wu Sanshi did not dare to support the future world No. 1 midfielder.
He carefully lowered his center of gravity, stepped back, and waited for his moment.
But Modric drew half a circle on the ball with his left foot, and immediately took the ball with an outside instep, Wu Sanshi rushed up to block, and the opponent threw away in an instant with a sudden stop and change of direction.
Depend on!
Wu Sanshi turned around and continued to chase, at this time Modric lifted his right foot and sent a straight stopper, Robbie Keane, who was inserted, took the ball and rushed to the bottom line, a return pass to the middle, and Defoe's low shot from 8 meters in front of the goal was blocked by Reina.
"It's a smart pass."
'It's a bit of an interesting game, especially since Gerrard isn't there, and Liverpool may not be able to take advantage of the midfield.
syllable
Luka Modric takes a corner from the left and sends it straight to the middle.
"Be careful!"
Carragher took the lead to push the ball to the side, and Modric, who had just taken a corner kick, saw the ball fly by, and stopped picking up his right foot and shooting directly.
bang
Arcing, a big curling kick from the edge of the left side of the penalty area into the far corner of the goal, hitting the inside of the post and bounce into the goal.
That's it, Tottenham are ahead!
“Gooooooooooooooooooal!”
“Goooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”
“Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”
'It was a fantastic goal, and although I support STONE, when I saw Tottenham score first, I felt that this game was definitely not going to be boring.
'Luka Modric shoots beautifully, this player has an unbeatable sense of the ball.
"I believe that Liverpool will definitely not throw in the towel easily, and they will launch a counterattack immediately."
Reina is also complaining that Carragher cleared the siege and directly sent the assist, while Wu Sanshi's focus has been on Modric.
It's so strong!
Gerrard also likes to shoot volleys, but Gerrard rarely gets a straight shot from the volley.
As for himself, he is still far from Gerrard in long-range shooting.
But Modric's ball is definitely not stunned, looking at the posture of his shooting, you can know that he deliberately hit the far corner, the ball speed is so fast, and he can also kick the ball out of the arc according to his intention, which is also too exaggerated.
Looking at the back of Modric running to celebrate, Wu Sanshi clenched his fists.
Step up your game
Try harder,
You can only become the best player if you keep improving.
Ringing out Carragher's pre-match explanation, Wu Sanshi walked to his own half and clapped his hands and shouted, "It's just a ball!" ”
'Just scored a goal while we weren't in the groove, keep yourself up guys, I don't want to take a defeat away from home.'
Carragher looked at Wu Sanshi appreciatively, and quickly responded.
"Onward, Liverpool!"
"Roar~"
......
Benitez found himself careless, although the manager of Tottenham Hotspur is a team, but the players are very strong. It belongs to the team with a large gap between the upper and lower limits.
No wonder they can win against Chelsea and Arsenal, and if their players play with feeling, they are expected to be able to play with many big clubs.
Modric, who scored just now, showed a technical level that was definitely at the level of the giants' main team, which made him very excited.
But the main thing at the moment is this game.
He was a little anxious, and when he saw Wu Sanshi motivating his teammates, he put his heart back in his stomach.
The game restarted, Carragher stepped forward to the middle to split the ball Rivera, the Spaniards and Bale were entangled on the right side, the speed of the Welsh winger gave him more forgiveness, although Rivera passed Bale twice, and he couldn't get rid of it, the opponent's reaction was too fast.
Left-back Jenas quickly came up to help defend, Rivera protected the ball with his back, blocked Bale and Jenas behind him, and froze for a while.
Impatient, Jenas pushed Rivera out of bounds straight from behind.
Beep
Foul.
"Bale is very aggressive on both ends of the pitch and looks like he's really keen to prove his ...... in this game."
Liverpool's set-piece up front.
'It's too far to the right, it's very small, Gerrard and Glen Johnson aren't there, so who is going to take this free-kick?"
Knock –
Aquilani, who got the opportunity, hit the goal with a powerful kick, and the ball grazed the post and flew off the bottom line.
'It's a bit of a dangerous kick and Aquilani seems to be back to the form he had when he played in Italy.
Tottenham kicked off and Bale wanted to make waves on the left, and Liverpool soon had two players up to defend, and the Welsh full-back gave a kick to Kranica in front, who tripped on Carragher's foot as soon as he turned.
Soon rolled on the turf with his ankles covered.
A bewildered Carragher received a yellow card.
"Judging by the replay, it was Kranitsa himself who crashed into Carragher."
"Hey, it's a bit wronged this time."
'However, Kranica appears to be injured and the Tottenham team doctor has signaled for Redknapp to make a substitution.
Lao Lei is also very upset, three Croatians are the players he relies on the most, and one of them will be injured if he doesn't come up.
"Aaron, play."
Redknapp waved his hand impatiently, and Allen Hutton, who had not yet warmed up, was substituted on the court.
Luka Modric whipped in a free-kick from the left, and Reina, who had attacked, took the ball straight out of the air and launched a counter-attack with a long-range hand-tossed ball.
Liverpool's formation was all pressed forward by more than 10 meters in an instant, and the black clouds were overwhelming the city.
