Volume 2 Chapter 26 For the Champion
"Come, bring me another cup", old Hevey smacked his mouth, and said meaninglessly.
Makkin Kabakaba chewed peanuts, Peter picked up the wine bottle and poured another glass for the old man.
The old man was completely retired, he had nothing to do, and he was completely aroused by the filial piety of the New Year's Maotai, and he called Peter to drink when he saw the sky and afternoon.
A small cup of eight dollars, spiced peanuts, this foreign old man has thoroughly learned, drinking alcohol is not called drinking, what you want is such a taste~
The table of eight immortals is swinging, the old legs are plated, this old man's hair is white, and he thinks he is a rural old man in China if he doesn't look at it.
"Mark, the young players who went out from under me, all these years, if not a thousand, but eight hundred, you, this is it", old Haiwei was drunk, squinting and giving him a thumbs up.
"Hey, old man, tell me in detail, I love to hear praise from others", Mark Qin said with a smile as he sipped peanuts.
Peter also smiled and poured it again for the old Haiwei, this old man was a noble man in the past few years of Ma Qin, and now he is retired, according to Chen Zixuan's words, it is not cold to ask people to go to tea.
"What about this player, there are high and low talents, and the coaches he has met are all kinds of coaches, and those who can kick out have two brushes", Old Haiwei smashed another sip of wine, "But to say that this mentality is calm, I have never seen anything more powerful than you"
"What's wrong with me?" , Mark diligently swallowed peanuts and listened to the idle article.
"If you want to say, I still feel a little sorry for you, I sent you to the reserve team that year, and I had no choice but to do it", the old man recalled and said, "It's too hasty~"
"You won't blame me for all the time with Rafa, Mark," said the old man, looking at him.
Makin Kaba chewed a peanut and thought to himself, "How can I be, I'm not good at this?" ”
Old Haiwei nodded, "That's you, if this is someone else, I'm really hard to say"
"In the years you went to Melwood, I still paid a lot of attention to you, it looked easy to boil out, and there was no dim sum ......," he chewed on peanuts and shook his head.
Peter thought to himself, you wouldn't have said this before, retirement is different.
"Let's just say Rafa, treat you as a panacea, you really kicked it out, it's not easy~"
"Now that you've figured out the division, even if you don't feel comfortable staying in Liverpool in the future, there's no shortage of places to go"
Mark Qin smiled and said, "You are really retired, if you don't sit in that position, you don't worry about that, and you become really fast."
How they defended Cocoby the first year.
"Hey," said old Hey, "you weren't as well taken care of as we were in Cocoby?" ”
Hey, Makqin nodded, approval!
"It's all your luck, good or bad, it's good for your career, and we're thinking about it."
Old Haiwei took a sip of the wine glass, the wine really became more and more fragrant, and continued: "Now the fans regard you as the banner of the future, whether Rafa is not in the future, you can be considered to have a firm foothold in Melwood~"
This old man understands quite well!
"Hey, you're so good," Makqin said, "I haven't seen you come to Melwood a few times, you know everything."
"Naturally, there will be people in the future to worry about the future, I don't care about it at all, you", the old man nodded at Mark Qin drunkenly, "Just play hard, and come back with a championship this year, hahaha~"
"Let's go through the storm together~", the old man knocked on the table, with a hoarse voice, and sang that you will never walk alone, and it is like telling your whole life~
……
Manchester United relied on Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick to beat Newcastle 6-0 in the last round, overtaking Liverpool by one point to regain the leader, and Arsenal was also forced to draw by Birmingham, one place behind Liverpool in third, Ferguson was in high spirits after the game.
"Liverpool? What I said a few years ago is still valid, they won't be our ultimate opponents, I've been in the Premier League for almost 20 years and they're still just a spoiler, Arsenal have been lacking in energy for a couple of years, it won't make a difference this year, it's Chelsea who I'm really worried about because they're tough enough", Ferguson said after the game, knocking on the top four.
Benitez snapped and slammed the newspaper on the table in front of the conference room, "Have you all read it?" He angrily said to the players below, "This damn old man is farting again, what does he want to do?" He wants to disturb our minds because he is afraid of us"
"We've got one game less, so we're two points ahead of them now, guys, sixteen games left, we drew three games in a row a while ago, champions? It's not easy to get, are you willing? He said angrily as he leaned over the table.
"Let this old man point fingers? After that, we have to give our best in every game, and every point we lose in the future can be a reason for us to cry and regret it at the end of the season."
This is the 23rd round of the league, Liverpool's tactical meeting before the home game against Aston Villa, Liverpool can not draw any more, otherwise it will seriously affect morale, this is also a season mobilization meeting.
"Champions, we only aim for championships," Benitez said, banging on the table.
"That's all for today, and I've finished the tactical analysis just now", Benitez raised his hand and looked at his watch, "Next time, the captain will organize you to have an internal meeting"
When Benitez walked out, Gerard and Carragher went over and closed the door, and everyone gathered their chairs in a circle and waited for the captain to speak.
Gerrard and Carragher walked in the middle, and Gerrard took the lead and said: "I agree with the boss, our goal this season is to win the league", he looked around and continued,
'I was born here, when I was younger, Liverpool dominated Europe, but when I came to the first team, we haven't won this damn league title for 17 years since '90, I won the five crowns in '01, the Champions Cup in '05, the FA Cup in '06 and now I have only one league title missing from my honour book and I'm going to do everything for him'
"That's right," Carragher said, "is there anyone here who doesn't want to win the league?" Does anyone want to lose? We're Liverpool, who wants to see the damn Manchester United bunch of shit and pee on our heads? We're going to finish the season with our dominance, lift that lovely trophy and let Manchester United cheer us on! ”
Gerrard continued: 'We are a unit, I believe we all have a desire for honour, now we have good players and great back-ups in every position, we have a lot to show in the Premier League, we just let Manchester United dominate at our home stadium and we have no reason to drop points against those weak teams! ”
Carragher pulled Alonso up, "Xavi, you're our midfield commander, you say a few words"
There are six Spanish players in Liverpool's main rotation lineup, occupying three lines of Liverpool, and Alonso, as a representative of the Spaniards, naturally wants to make a statement.
'It's an honour to be here at Liverpool, we won the Champions League in '05, we won the FA Cup in '06 and we are fighting on the pitch with such great team-mates, Liverpool means a lot to me, for Liverpool, for the league title, I will do my best, we have to stick together and fight for every win'
Gerrard beckoned to Mack, "Come, Mark, as a representative of the young players, you should also show your attitude"
"What else can I say, of course it's for Liverpool, for the championship, fight for the, haha~", Mackin stood up and yelled loudly.
"Haha~, yes, fight!" , many teammates shouted along.
Gerrard raised his hand, waited for the shouting to stop, and then said: "Since everyone has the same goal, then whether it is an old teammate or a newcomer, whether you play the main force in this game, or play as a substitute, no matter what the game is, everyone must work together, all for victory, for the championship!" Finally, he raised his arms and shouted.
"For the victory, for the championship," they shouted.
Ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, groups must work together, there is no slogan, Mackin feels that now the Premier League championship has entered the bright bayonet stage, he believes that if the distance has not been opened after ten rounds, at that time, it is the bayonet red!
……
On January 22, Liverpool's game was scheduled for the last game, and the other three won all of them, and the pressure on Liverpool was on Liverpool again.
Ferguson fired again, "I doubt the fragile Liverpool will be able to withstand this pressure, they haven't won a few games in a few games? , three or four? , will they be a big hit in this game? I don't rule out the possibility ......"
Benitez gave an official interview before the game and replied to Ferguson's downfall: "They just caught up with us and played one more game than us, we just took a nap, Ferguson still cares about himself, because the final title will belong to us"
This game Makqin started because they need to attack!
In an interview outside the stadium, Mackin said: "Sir Alex Ferguson is talking again? At his age, I advise him to take care of his health, because there is something more exciting waiting for him at the end of the season, and that is that they will lose the league title! ”
This war of words has intensified, taking place before and after almost every round, and the fateful rivals have finally started to face each other shirtless and fist-to-flesh this season.
'Maika, there have been a few rounds where we haven't broadcast Liverpool, what do you think of the situation,' Peterson said to McManaman on the other side of the studio.
McManaman looked at the warm-up Liverpool players and said: "The first thing Liverpool needs to do is to win, and keep winning, the championship competition starts from now on, Ferguson has taken the lead in launching a psychological offensive, Liverpool can only win in order not to fall into his calculations"
"And what do you think of Liverpool's line-up in this game?" , Peterson continued.
"The biggest change in this game is Mark in the front line", McCa analyzed, "We know that Liverpool's goal point, in addition to Torres in the front line, is Gerrard who changed to right midfield, these two are the top two goals in the team"
"But neither Kuyt, nor Voronin, nor Crouch, who has left, have provided Liverpool with a consistent third scorer, and the last three draws for Liverpool have largely been due to inability to score, and I believe Benitez has also taken that into account and made changes."
Since the coach let himself play as a striker, the task of scoring a goal or the last pass must of course take precedence over the organization, the whole team is a whole, and when he changes positions, he naturally has to change his playing habits.
He himself has thought about it in the past few days, don't think as much as in the midfield, receive the ball and have a good chance to get rid of the shot, or create a shooting opportunity for his teammates, if there is no opportunity, he will pass back to the midfielder to reorganize, he can't dominate the ball, this is the biggest difference from when he played in the midfield.
This game was their first opponent of the season, Aston Villa, when Mack Qin went to the away stands to watch the game, their style of play was very simple, high school striker Karui and two fast horses Abonlaho and Ashley Young, Benitez wanted to bring Ashley Young over in the winter, but unfortunately he was too shy to get it.
They can't afford to lose this game......
There is a plus change in the evening.
