The battle for the top spot between Liverpool and Chelsea has attracted the attention of the global media.

There are five major leagues in Europe as the model for world football, the English Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1. The five major leagues basically pack the outstanding stars in the current service. And the battle between the Premier League and La Liga, just like who is the best between Messi and Ronaldo, is a big controversy in the football circle.

The Spanish side believes that La Liga is the undisputed number one league, and why? They have the two giants of Real Madrid and Barcelona, and the two superstars of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.

Of course, the English do not agree with this, they believe that the Premier League is the first league, the Premier League has Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and many other giants, there are many giants, physical confrontation is encouraged, the league looks and feels, and it has a huge influence in the world, and it is a well-deserved first league.

However, La Liga fans refuted this, La Liga has Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, and the Premier League does not have a superstar comparable to Melo, so why should it be worthy of boasting of the first league.

……

This situation changed with the rise of Jiang Chenxi and the joining of Liverpool.

With the famous correspondent of The Guardian, Ellen . Smith's words said that the Chinese star is now only one personal honor of the World Footballer of the Year Golden Ball, and once Jiang Chenxi is crowned this year, the situation of the world's unparalleled double pride will be broken and become a three-legged situation.

Although it is still unknown who will be the owner of this year's World Footballer of the Year, Jiang Chenxi has been able to challenge Messi and Ronaldo, which has also been recognized by most of the media.

It can be said that Jiang Chenxi joined Liverpool and joined the Premier League, which is a huge promotion of the Premier League and has brought a huge influence.

The British Reuters agency has investigated this, and they came to the conclusion that after the Chinese star joined Liverpool, it has brought a huge fan base to Liverpool around the world, even if you don't count the fans from China, there are many fans around the world who pay attention to Liverpool because of Jiang Chenxi, not only Liverpool benefits, but the entire Premier League has benefited from it, and the ratings of Liverpool and other giants in the Premier League have risen a lot compared with last season, which is the change brought by this Chinese star to the Premier League!

In such a situation, the matchup between Liverpool, which has Jiang Chenxi, Liverpool, who is ranked second in the Premier League standings, and Chelsea, the league leader, has meaninglessly attracted the attention of global media and fans.

The Times lamented with a little regret that if Chelsea also had a superstar who could rival Melo, the global impact and attention of this game would be comparable to the Spanish derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

……

With one day to go until this world-renowned battle for the top spot, the media is full of reports about the match, various predictions, and opinion pieces.

The Daily Mail believes that Chelsea are closer to victory in this battle for the top spot, although the Blues are playing away, but Chelsea are stronger than Liverpool - "Although Liverpool has Jiang Chenxi, Chelsea is stronger, Mourinho's team is more comprehensive, and the three lines are very strong and reasonable, with Branislav Ivanovic, Cesc Fabregas, Nemanja Matic, Hazard, Oscar and Diego. Costa's Chelsea overall are significantly stronger than Liverpool......"

The Times also believe that Chelsea have a better chance of winning, and their view is similar to that of the Daily Mail, that Liverpool's current squad cannot compare to Chelsea, and that Mourinho's side have shown terrible consistency this season.

The Sun also voted Chelsea's support, for reasons that are not explained.

Only the famous Guardian reporter Ellen . Smith is unequivocally backing Jiang Chenxi and Liverpool, Smith thinks Liverpool will win at home, why? They have Jiang Chenxi.

However, the English media generally believe that Chelsea are more likely to win, but also believe that if Chelsea win, they will be as much as six points ahead of Liverpool, and with two games winning, the suspense of this season's Premier League title will be much smaller, and Liverpool will no longer be able to pose an oppressive threat to Chelsea.

In addition, the bookmakers' odds also point to their general favour on Chelsea on the road.

All of a sudden, the media coverage was more tense than ever, and in the words of the media, Liverpool lost this game and this season's league title was on the verge of disappearing......

……

"What is this?" Lovren complained dissatisfiedly, "The game hasn't been played yet, it's like we've lost." ”

"Why?" Henderson shook his head unhappily, "It's like the league title is going to be lost." ”

"But they're right about one thing." Coutinho frowned and said, "If we lose the game, we're six points behind Chelsea. ”

Hearing Coutinho say this, some people retorted unhappily, and some people had solemn expressions.

The atmosphere at Melwood Training Base was solemn, and the players were talking.

Yes, the media is right, Liverpool can't afford to lose this game, if they lose, they will be six points behind Chelsea, although the league is only a third of the way out, but, with the consistency that Chelsea has shown this season, if they can't overtake in such a direct matchup, but are pulled apart, they will have extremely difficult to win the league title.

All of a sudden, the air in the Liverpool squad was heavy and the players were feeling a lot of pressure.

Jurgen Klopp has also noticed the pressure within the team, and he is a little angry, not because of the mentality of the players, but because of the media portrayal of the game.

'You have to take the pressure off the players.' Assistant coach Kravitz looked at the players who were training and said to Klopp worriedly.

……

At the end of the day's training, Klopp called the whole team to give a lecture to cheer up the players and relieve pressure.

However, it is clear that the manager's words did not have a very good effect.

"There's only to win, there's only to win the game." Kravitz said.

"yes, winning is the best way to solve everything." Klopp nodded with a serious expression, winning Chelsea, Liverpool will not only relieve the pressure, but most importantly will boost the morale and confidence of the whole team.

For Liverpool, who have not lost so far this season and are consistent and fearsome Chelsea, is a mountain they need to conquer now.

After the restructuring of the English League to the English Premier League, Liverpool has not tasted the Premier League title once, and for this Liverpool team, the first time is very important and very crucial. Before reaching the top for the first time, they have to bear a lot of pressure, and this is not only an objective problem of strength, but most importantly, it is also a psychological factor of the players: lack of confidence!

To be more precise, there is no domineering of the king!

How can you have the momentum and confidence of a king, only the champion!

This is a paradoxical serious question.

In other words, Liverpool really can't afford to lose this battle for the top spot!

Victory, from victory to victory, all the way to the crown of the king, so as to be able to cast the self-confidence of the king.
