Chapter 227: Xiao Xiaoluo's Expectations
() Liverpool, which has not rained for more than half a month, has been changing since Friday night, and the yellowing turf of Stanley Park has finally seen some life.
The 3-0 score rained down on the middle of Anfield, and the stands were full of Reds fans. In the drizzling rain, there were also fans who lit cold fireworks to celebrate the victory.
Tang Wu sat in the stands, looking at the excited fans around him, and on their faces, there was a long-lost confidence and smile.
While the victory over the promoted horses was not something to be proud of, the reason for the smiles on the faces of Liverpudlians was that the "Spanish Revolution" of the Shellfish-style Red Army had already taken its first successful steps.
Unlike the 442 insisted on by Houllier, the Reds had only Cisse as a true striker.
Behind Cisse, Beatu deployed a trio of attacking midfielders, Garcia, Colwill and Fernan. The three-man drop back not only assists the two wingers, but also complements the midfield.
However, the real power of such a formation lies in the attack, and any one of the three can be plugged in at any time to support Cisse, making the attack more selectable and routed.
Among the three attacking midfielders, Garcia and Fernando both scored, which just shows the great threat of the "shadow forward".
'When you win 3-0, you really can't care about anything. Bei Bald looked relieved, and was not half proud of this.
"We had a good performance today. What's more, today is just a small step forward, and there is still a longer way to go. ”
'The new squad is not an excuse to drop points and don't forget that Arsenal and Chelsea are so far ahead that we don't have much time left.
The two away points conceded a dismay, and he had to be cautious when interviewed by reporters.
Damn the FA, damn Chelsea, they actually stuck the TO transfer for so long!
Although the bald is peaceful on the surface, deep down he gritted his teeth.
If everything is normal, Tang Wu will be able to play for Liverpool after this round of Premier League. But because of the procrastination of relevant personnel, whether Tang Wu can attend the Champions League in a few days is still two different things.
Since Tang Wu joined Liverpool, the Red Army's backline has gradually "Tang Wu". The most common manifestation is that these defenders are increasingly listening to the goalkeeper's instructions when defending. As long as they hear the goalkeeper's shout, their bodies will unconsciously adjust accordingly.
Even if Dudek is not a person who likes to shout.
Promoted Masi Bromwich Albion is just a whetstone for Liverpool's new squad, and such a whetstone not only fails to test defensive results, but also only one piece.
What worries him the most now is that the Reds have already lost many crucial games before Tang Wu has fully integrated into Liverpool.
You must know that there is not much time left for Liverpool, judging from the schedule, the next round waiting for the Reds will be the "sleepy" Red Devils Manchester United!
Five rounds of Premier League matches have passed, and Arsenal leads the Premier League with five consecutive wins.
Who will stop Arsenal?
This has become the most talked about thing by British fans.
But for now, the Gunners are still in full swing.
Not only did Henry, the king of the guns, break out again and again, but the depth of the Gunners' bench was also surprising.
In the third round of the Premier League, Tang Wu's friend Cesc Fabregas scored his first goal in the Premier League. The 17-year-old Xiaofa became the youngest player to score goals in the team's history.
Seeing Xiaofa's magical play and calm organization in the midfield, the "enemies" of those gunners slapped their foreheads again.
It was thought that Vieira's injury could give the Gunners a taste of defeat in the new season, but now it seems that unless the young Spaniard is also kicked to a broken bone, the frequency of the Gunners' shots will only increase.
Arsene Wenger has long since lost his sights on the domestic league and has his sights set on the Champions League further away. The Gunners' goal this season is also clear: to touch the Champions League trophy that has never been touched.
On Chelsea's side, Jose Mourinho also led the team to win four games in a row. However, in the fifth game, the Blues were held to a 0-0 draw away from Villa and could only "relegate" to second place with a record of four wins and one draw.
Jose Mourinho says that if Chelsea want to win the title, they will have to end up with more than 100 points, and only 90 points when Arsenal won the title unbeaten last season.
"The Premier League is so intense and if you don't have 100 points, it's going to be very difficult to win the title!"
'We have to make sure we win against a team like Southampton when we come down or it won't make sense for us to beat Manchester United on the first matchday.'
Whether Mourinho lamented the fierce competition in the Premier League or whether he didn't have the brains to say something like "100 points" is perhaps only known to him. But on the question of how the team won the championship and Tang Wu, his answer was very casual.
"Whether the team wins the championship or not has little to do with whether or not we sell a good goalkeeper, as long as our strikers are still scoring, we have a good chance of winning the championship!"
'In my opinion, our strikers are no worse than players like Thierry Henry.
Now that the Premier League knows the horror of Chelsea's Ivory Coast black monster, it is said that no defender has been able to resist him successfully.
As for other aspects, Mourinho is regretting not signing Steven Gerrard. The loyalty of the captain of the Red Army made Abu's money bomb useless. The second is the resignation of the old Robson, which made Mourinho lose the opportunity to compete with his master.
Robson had taught Jose Mourinho during his time at Porto and Barcelona, and as a protégé, the latter had always wanted a chance to compete with his mentor, but that had all come to naught.
"I don't want to talk about it, it's so sad, it's just sad." Mourinho muttered.
Manchester United, although it has played one less game with Liverpool, compared with Liverpool's two wins, one draw and one loss, Manchester United's results in the first four games are indeed a bit "miserable".
With one win, two draws and one defeat, such a start made Red Devils fans feel very unhappy. Even captain Keane confessed to the camera: "Manchester United is no longer intimidated by opponents, and we have indeed lost the ability to threaten opponents. ”
The side effect of the big names is a constant stream of injuries.
Rooney, who has just moved in, is unable to play due to injuries at the European Championships, Gary Neville and Saha are injured in World Cup qualifying, and Ruud van Nistelrooy, the team's top scorer, has also been out for more than a month due to hernia surgery. To make matters worse, goalkeeper Howard's epilepsy could recur at any time and he didn't even make it to his home country for the World Cup qualifiers.
For this reason, the old gentleman was anxious to turn white (of course, there were a lot of white ones), and nearly half of the main players in the team were plagued by injuries, and Manchester United even fell to the top ten.
After five rounds, United were nine points clear of the Gunners.
Manchester United have always been slow to get off to a start, but with title prospects so bleak in September, supporters have plenty of reasons to be worried.
Bolton manager Sam Allardyce unceremoniously pointed out in the "Spectator's Guide" that Manchester United can only hope to fight for third place if they continue to play like this.
For this reason, the old lord was not convinced at all: "Of course I don't like to be 9 points behind, but we will undoubtedly get better and better." My team didn't let me down, they never gave up. ”
Indeed, it was a Portuguese teenager who never gave up in this game. But he worked hard for the whole game, and only got one kick of the lintel, which was difficult to release his unwillingness.
This is not the first time Bolton have snatched points from Manchester United, having picked up three points on two away games in the last three years.
In the 02-03 season, the home team rejected the Red Devils 1-1, and Ferguson did not deny that the "fast horse" was difficult: "Every time I come here, it is hard to play, but I expect us to show more authority after we are 1-0 up. ”
In today's game, it was 1-1 in the 89th minute and 2-2 in the 92nd minute. It's like the typical British weather a few minutes ago, when the wind was still sunny and the rain was drizzling.
In the end, the equaliser was due to a low-level mistake by the defender and goalkeeper.
When Howard pounced the ball into the box, Sylvester quickly ran towards it.
Under the circumstances, Sylvester and Howard formed a two-and-one situation, which could have defused the ball without danger, but when Howard turned around and pounced on the bouncing ball, something unexpected happened. Suddenly, Sylvester unnecessarily stretched out his leg and kicked the ball to the side.
A goalkeeper-defender's mismatch gave Bolton striker Rio Ferdinand a chance to take advantage of it, and he simply squeezed his leg out and stabbed the ball into the empty net.
Seeing that the team lost the ball because of such a low-level mistake, Xiao Xiaoluo, who had been running for 90 minutes, also pinched his waist and sighed incessantly.
It was then that he was reminded of the blue Chelsea side, who had barely made any low-level mistakes at the back all season with the help of a goalkeeper with six fingers on his left hand.
If there is such a defense, then Manchester United would have won the championship a long time ago?
Immediately, Xiao Xiao Luo shook his head violently, shaking this unrealistic idea out of his brain. For him, breaking Tang Wu's goal is more important than becoming a teammate with him.
"You 'escaped' last time you were against Chelsea, this time in Liverpool, are you going to be a shrunken turtle too?!"
The young little Luo clapped his fists together and snorted softly.
"I hope that when I come back from the Champions League, I can see you in front of me with those peculiar gloves!"
