Volume II, Chapter 51: One of the Seven Weapons
Melwood's training was spurred on by the prize money, and for the star, the money was just the icing on the cake.
But for the coaching staff and many of the substitutes and fringe players, the bonus may be worth half a year's salary.
Like Hobbes, who had just been transferred from the reserves, his weekly salary was less than £3,000, and the bonus could be in the tens of thousands.
It's fake not to be blushing, but he estimates that he won't be able to play a game, so he can only hope that his teammates will give him strength, and don't drop the chain.
Mackin felt that most of his teammates were more enthusiastic about training, and there were more people who came early and left late, maybe not all of them were because of money, but at least they were driven by this atmosphere.
On the afternoon of March 2, all of Liverpool's 16-man squad boarded the bus, but this time the bus was followed by a bunch of tails.
Bolton is quite close to Liverpool, equivalent to Beijing to Tianjin, and many fans do not take public transportation, drive private cars, and follow the team.
All kinds of vehicles are sprayed with all kinds of team names and team emblems, or slogans, and some have flags and slogans floating on the roofs. The whole scene is like a bunch of vehicles completing the task of clearing the road and escorting the Liverpool bus.
The scene was spectacular.
They sat quietly in their seats, their game was scheduled to start at half past nine in the evening, and most of the games in the round had already been played the day before.
There was good news and bad news, with the good news being that Arsenal were beaten at home by Senderos' own goal and they were drawn again, widening the gap to the top of the table by three points.
The bad news is that Manchester United and Chelsea both beat their opponents cleanly 3-0 and 4-0, and for Liverpool, who started late, they were only allowed to win and not lose, as they have faced many times since the New Year.
They were the only game tonight and they were in the spotlight.
"We've turned on the championship mode, just like this time of the year, we won't give any other team any chance, the final title will definitely stay at Carrington", said Ferguson, who was standing in front of the screen and talking on the screen on the car TV, with a red face after the win.
This was followed by a replay of Manchester United's three goals, Hargreaves' long-range shot and Asia's imperishable Park Ji-sung's follow-up shot, as well as a big gift from the opposing defender.
In stark contrast, Arsene Wenger has begun to show his sadness: "We can't continue to make mistakes like this, the players have to concentrate on the pitch, if our defence concedes the ball easily, then no one can save us, we have to pick ourselves up......
Professor Wen's journey to fight for the fourth year has quietly begun, and they are still enjoying the last remnants of the last glory, and the biggest problem is to sell the core and sell the main force, but it can't be blamed entirely on the stadium's overstretched Arsenal.
Many teams in the Premier League have a strict salary system and will not break the rules for a certain person, but the existence of super giants is to break the rules, and in the face of increasing salaries, it is inevitable that Adebayo will leave Arsenal for those who only recognize money.
Gerrard and Torres are in the first tier of Liverpool's salary system, and they are only between 70,000 and 80,000 pounds, you must know that Rooney just transferred to Manchester United at the age of 18 and received a weekly salary of 50,000 pounds, which is the confidence of big clubs to ignore the rules.
Jonathan is ready to open new contract talks between Mackin and Liverpool, and with Macken's current performance, there is no problem in catching up with Rooney, but he has played too few games, but at the end of the season, as long as he maintains this performance, there is no reason for him to get less than Rooney.
"Manchester United's trident Ronaldo Ronaldo Tevez did not score this time, but Manchester United still won, Liverpool will visit Bolton's Macron Stadium tonight, Liverpool's front trident Torres, Gerrard and Mark are all in ......good form at the moment", after yesterday's recap, the program immediately broadcast a prediction analysis of tonight's game.
The team has already announced the squad for tonight, with the trio starting together up front, with Kuyt on the left flank, in order to use his impact, Benitez has offered Liverpool's strongest line-up, and it is necessary to keep the pressure on Manchester United.
……
Tonight's Macron Stadium is red and white, due to its proximity, Liverpool's away fans came quite a lot today, seeing that the side of the goal was surrounded by a red patch, they were even more enthusiastic than the home fans, singing "You will never walk alone"
Bolton have been hovering around a dozen or so, with no desires, no desire to compete in European competitions, no relegation worries, and their home fans are quieter than Liverpool fans.
Interestingly, Liverpool's assistant coach Sammy Lee, who was the head coach of this team last year, did not expect him to leave Bolton Wanderers and return to his hometown of Liverpool to find a job as an assistant coach.
The relationship between these two teams is not limited to this, just last winter, Liverpool intercepted Bolton Wanderers and brought Gary Cahill to Anfield, otherwise Cahill would have been wearing a white shirt today.
The other is the Senegalese "famous player" Diouf who became famous in the 2002 World Cup one-goal match against France, this parallel striker who has made a lot of money for Liverpool, is now in Bolton.
Before the game, many people from the two teams hugged each other and greeted each other, as if they were a family, especially Sammy Lee, many players came to greet him, and it seems that he still left some incense when he was the head coach.
Mackin didn't care about these, what he wants now is to perform well in this game, but he still remembers the race with Ronaldo, Ronaldo scored twice in the last game and he didn't play, he has to make up for it in this game, otherwise others will think he lost.
Nobody likes to lose!
"Audience friends, the last game of this round of the league, Bolton Wanderers vs Liverpool, started after the referee's whistle, and here is still the familiar Sky Sports Peterson and my old partner McKa," Peterson said with a smile into the camera.
"Good evening, I'm McCa, Liverpool are on the radar of a lot of celebrities, the media and other title contenders today, their starting line-up today hasn't changed much, it's still the usual main line-up used by Benitez after the New Year," McManaman said, looking at the profile.
After looking for information, he continued: "In the last ten meetings, Bolton won 3, drew 2 and lost 5, scored 11 goals and conceded 18 goals, which can be said to be at a disadvantage, and met Liverpool, who have been in hot form recently, and after the New Year, except for an unexpected exit in the FA Cup, they are unbeaten in all competitions"
"Oh ~ Oh ~ Liverpool, GoGoGo", the players on the field launched a fierce attack at the beginning of the game with the cheers of Liverpool fans, and rested for a week, with an average age of only twenty-six years old, they are already alive and thirsty!
Mackqin's area of activity today is their back waist line, their own front waist area, the middle lane!
This was arranged by Sami Lee in the tactical meeting, as none of Bolton's back four would be up front, with their two full-backs playing entirely as centre-backs and tasked with defending.
Nolan, the only central midfielder in the team who can be called a star, is also responsible for attacking combing and cutting, and relying on the recovery of two forwards in turn cannot prevent Liverpool's midfield.
In addition to Mackqin's recovery, the coaching staff also arranged for Steven Gerrard's inward cut, who did not play wide today, and Kuyt's forward and crosses to two full-backs.
In this way, Liverpool formed an attacking triangle backed by Mascherano in the middle, with Mack on the left, Gerrard on the right, and Alonso at the rear.
The team's tactics worked very quickly in the case of Sami Lee, a semi-traitor, because this season, Bolton's personnel have basically not changed, so they even know the saving habits of the opposing Jascolainen.
"Gerrard~~~", Peterson raised his voice, indicating that this attack has an eye, "Take the ball on the right side, rush forward with the ball, the speed is very fast, the left wingback Gardner was left behind by him~~, and Mark Qin two-to-one, good ball~~, Stenson grabbed ~~, fouled ~~~"
Ten minutes into the game, Liverpool cut off Bolton's pass to Diouf from their own right, and several times cooperated, relying on Gerrard's heavy bomber-like assault, directly to the edge of the penalty area, only to be tripped by the defender Stenson who rushed to the ground.
"A direct free kick, about 25 metres away", McManaman said, "In the twenty-fifth round, against Sunderland, Mark scored a beautiful direct free kick in a similar position, and this time we will see if it is still Mark who takes the penalty"
That didn't run, Mackin has now been given a left-footed free-kick from the edge of the box, which he earned on the back of his goals and good performances in training.
"Mark, it's him, we saw him come to the penalty spot with the ball, Alonso didn't come, only Gerrard was nearby, Liverpool except for two left wing-backs, it is estimated that no one really has a better left foot than Mark"
Sam and Allen were in the away team's fan zone, and when they saw Mark taking a free kick, they immediately held up a big sign with a big bold black letter: "Make, Goal~~, Kill CR9"
"Go, Mark, Kill CR9, GoGoGo~~~"
This position was Macklin's favourite distance, and he set the ball up and looked up at Jaskolenen, who was commanding the wall on the goal line, and the Finnish goalkeeper was quite difficult to deal with.
Sammy Lee said that he reacted quickly, chose a good position, and was quite stable, had good psychological quality, and was fully qualified to be the main force of the giants, and the reason why he didn't go to the giants was because he was a little older.
Older, that's one more advantage, experienced!
The strength of his left foot is still close to his right foot, and he has not yet reached the stage where his strength is completed around the age of 20, which is why the team's free kicks are not all taken by him, although he has a high hit rate, but the power and ball speed are not enough.
Then take him by surprise!
Makqin watched Jascolenen stand at the far post on the halfway line, spat at the glove, crouched and bent over, ready to make a save.
This angle of the left foot into the near corner will be the choice of the vast majority of free-kick takers, and I believe Jascolainen will think the same, so play the far corner.
The reason why many people don't hit the far corner is because the goalkeeper guards the far corner, and the near corner is mainly against the human wall, but this free kick Jaskolenen is blocked by the human wall, and he will only know the direction when he flies over the human wall.
In Jascolenen's experience, he will definitely subconsciously move his center of gravity to the near corner at that moment, as long as the angle of his penalty is good enough, there is a chance to deceive him.
With this in mind, Mackin retreated to his usual running distance and waited for the referee's whistle to blow, and this time Liverpool did not make any smoke bombs, but Gerrard stood two steps away and made a feint.
"The referee blew the whistle, let's take a look at this free-kick and Mark assists ......"
Makqin adjusted his rhythm, stepped on the right side of the ball with his right foot, and with a "bang" of his left foot, he used the inside of the forefoot like a whip to draw the ball to the bottom left.
Gently sent forward, but did not force back into the pocket, the ball "swished" around the far side of the wall, straight to the far corner of the goal.
Jascolenen stared carefully at the gap between the legs of the wall, trying to see the time and direction of the ball's flight, it could be too fast, he just saw the leg of the wall move, the ball flew over his head, and he habitually kicked his left leg, as if moving towards the near corner.
When he found out that the ball was coming to the far corner, he pulled back his center of gravity and kicked the ground with his right leg, which was half a beat slower after all......
"Goal~~~~~~~, Mark, nice free kick, he unexpectedly hit a far corner, which made Jascolenen misjudge, the ball was in his hand and flew into the goal~~~"
