Volume 3 Chapter 96 Relaxed, lost my soul

"He really was born on the pitch, he understands and creates football better than most players in this world, and football really seems to have magic under his feet!" , Maika said as he looked at Mackin with his arms outstretched.

"Yes, God is really unfair enough to give him so much football talent", exclaimed Peterson, "playing football is really easy for him"

Tevez looked at Mackin from afar as he saw a huge shadow from the same one who had shattered their then-title hopes at Old Trafford two years earlier.

He still remembers Ferguson's performance at the time, when the team fell behind or played poorly, his foaming star would definitely fly all over the dressing room, but not in that game.

Fabiano and Balotelli around him may not know what the number 18 thinks about the Premier League, since he was crowned in the Champions League in the summer and Cristiano Ronaldo has been the number one superstar in the Premier League.

Only Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored 33 goals (in the book) and broke the 30-goal mark in the league season again after Alan Shearer and Andy Cole, can compete with him in terms of skill and influence.

There was no cheering from the stands, no loud noise, because it was an away game, but Mackin still enjoyed it, and it would have been satisfying to be able to explore and touch this kind of territory that he had not yet been able to fully grasp.

The rhythm is wonderful.

This wonder is even more obvious when he sees the defenders looking at him in horror, but they don't dare to grab or make moves.

Now, he also really understands what the commentators often say: some players, you just put them on the field for a 90-minute walk, and it is also a huge power.

Because they can change the game in a second.

"Oh ......", Peterson screamed excitedly, only to completely release the feeling that his heart was about to explode, he watched Mackin for more than two years, and every time he looked at it, he felt that he was improving.

Just like today, it's really hard for him to describe in words how far Makqin has improved, but this season he just feels like he's improved again.

Unlike some players, who have to grind well for years to shine, Makqin can see that he is constantly improving every year, every month, which is terrifying.

Especially after he won the Champions League at the end of May in the middle of the year and won the Champions League Golden Boot again, I feel that his whole temperament on the field has changed, which is a kind of absolute confidence and courage to take responsibility for handling the ball.

"Mancini is not easy to do", Peterson said as he looked at the camera, when the screen hit Mancini, who was bending over and shouting something to the players on the sidelines, he looked anxious.

'He should have been a bit more aggressive in getting Balotelli and Carlos Tevez back in defence,' McCa replied, 'Liverpool's midfield advantage was too obvious, especially after Mark dropped back'

After the two men began to discuss Mackqin's new style of play, he had already received congratulations from his team-mates outside the penalty area, waved his fist at the Liverpool visitors in celebration before walking back to his own half.

Balotelli and Tevez walked to the center circle with their heads down to restart, and the stands of West Ham United were completely stunned by the goal, and they all hugged their heads in disbelief.

"Keita, you have to hold off Mark, don't let him take the ball so easily", captain Upson shouted anxiously to his midfielder, but he is still a member of the national team, otherwise so many big names really can't be controlled.

Marriner looked at his watch, it had been more than twenty minutes, he blew his whistle again, West Ham resumed possession of the ball, and then Mackin continued to run up for a walk.

It's not really lazy, he just played a Champions League game three days ago, he has to save his energy as much as possible, and avoid injury, not to mention that as long as he stays in the front, he is a huge threat.

Keita didn't dare to press too high, and for a while he kept a short distance from Upson and looked at Mack, as if this guy would transform at any time and give them a fatal blow.

After the two sides attacked and defended each other, Liverpool led by two goals, and just finished the Champions League, there was no particularly good opportunity, and there was no rush to attack, Spalletti sat in the coach's seat and chatted with Valdini easily.

"Balotelli, use the speed to go to Maxwell, Maxwell turned quickly, Balotelli, forced a cross, directly out of the bottom line", Peterson explained, "It's too reluctant, Liverpool's two fullbacks are very fast and flexible now, it's a little more difficult to think like this", Peterson continued to explain the game.

'Mancini relied a little too much on the individual quality of their front trident, and looking at the ball, Reyna drove the ball to Maxwell, Lucas answered, Mark ran to the left wing, the three scrambles, Mark, he passed the ball through the gap, Nobor stole Lucas," said Maika.

West Ham have pulled the tempo very fast because they have a physical advantage, and the three men in midfield are all very good runners, and Fabiano and Tevez have frequently dropped back.

The three of them in the front court have the ability to play nine and a half, which is why Manic relies on them, Manic is a person, with charisma and tactical skills, and he is also a head coach who is more likely to use and likes to use the personal ability of stars, but the biggest problem is Mian.

Therefore, the team he leads generally has no temperament, and his Lazio, Inter, and even Manchester City, which won the championship miraculously in his previous life, are all like this, so it is impossible to see any common hatred in West Ham today.

"Oh ......", there was an exclamation from the stands, then a round of applause, Tevez shook his head and walked back, just now he cut inside and forced a kick into the goal, the quality was good, but slightly over the crossbar.

Manchester City also wanted him in the summer, but he came to West Ham because the signing fee was higher, 20 million, and he didn't want to play under Benitez.

Before the end of the first half, both sides created a couple of chances on goal, but neither side could find the back of the net again, and at half-time, the screen played a comparison of key player stats.

Tevez, 4 shots on goal, 2 on target, 0 goals, 0 assists; Mack, 3 shots, 2 on target, 1 goal, 1 assist;

Spalletti was happy with the first half, which showed that their tactical transformation was successful, and there was only one newcomer on the field, Vucinic, and the whole team was more cooperative, with significantly fewer mistakes than in previous games.

After a fifteen-minute break at halftime, the two sides changed sides in the second half, and Fabiano and Balotelli switched positions frequently, which must have been specially arranged by Mancini.

"Fabiano, dribble, he went to the wing again, used his technique to shake off Maxwell, crossed, Balotelli fought for the top, was interfered by Carragher, the ball was not out of the box, Tevez, Tevez, he leaned on Mascherano and turned and shot ......", Peterson exclaimed.

"Oh ......", seeing Reina save the ball with one palm, there was a huge sigh from the stands, and they really formed two attacks in the penalty area in the second half.

D'Agostino's corner kick was too flat before the goal, and Lucas was directly cushioned out of the penalty area, and the ball bounced to the right touchline, and Mackin and Keita ran towards the ball at the same time.

Vucinic and Gerrard turned on their maximum speed to rush forward, because this kind of five-five ball, Mackin will most likely get it, which is a kind of trust.

'Mark, he poked the ball first, stopped on the touchline, Keita didn't give up, he followed, Mark, he flicked his left foot to Azpilicueta who came up, ......," Peterson explained.

Mack Qin ran back, as if to pick up Azpilicueta's over-the-top two-over-one, but his shoulder shook and came back, directly shaking Keita out of position.

Azpilicueta then pushed the ball to Mackin who retreated to get the ball, Lucas came to answer, Keita's delay made this counterattack opportunity ruined, and Macqin was not in a hurry to pass directly, but stabilized the ball first.

"Keita followed Mark more closely in the second half, otherwise it could have been another counter-attack", said McCa, "Liverpool switched to attacking positionally, Mark, Lucas, Kuyt made the ball with his back, Mark went to the centre circle"

Vucinic and Steven Gerrard also saw that they had also withdrawn from the front line and were involved in the pass in midfield, with the two full-backs pressing in response.

"Come back, come back", Mancini shouted again from the sidelines, he called Balotelli, Fabiano's attitude is still okay, only Balotelli often likes to walk.

Mack Qin kicked over the top and passed to Maxwell, who shook off Balotelli, Maxwell burst forward with the ball, and Norbore had no choice but to go over to fill in.

'Liverpool's continuous passing, they had too many people in midfield, the distance was very good, Mark, Vucinic, Kuyt, continuous wall link-up, beautiful, West Ham had a hard time breaking the ball from Liverpool in midfield, and the ball went to the front of their big box,' said Peterson.

"Mark's advancement at the back and Alonso in the first two years are completely two styles, he is a combination of passing and running to advance, his escape and small skills are much better than Alonso's, look at this ball", Maika watched Mark's comfortable advance and just wanted to talk about some digressions, but was interrupted by his long diagonal pass.

After seeing the ball on the left side of the continuous cooperation, Mackin directly across the entire field of transfer, sent to the right side of the side, Gerrard to the ribs of the diagonal cut directly into the West Ham back line into the penalty area, their right side exposed a huge gap.

The ball arrives, the man arrives.

'Cesar Azpilicueta, he's coming up, the youngster who just moved to Liverpool this year is starting for the first time, Tevez is slow to come back, Azpilicueta, dribbling the ball down and crossing......"

It may be the first start, the state is not adjusted to the best, the ball is passed wide, directly from the right side, and back to the left side, fortunately Maxwell stopped the ball on the left sideline, otherwise it was a mistake.

However, there was a mistake, Mackin who wanted to rush into the penalty area immediately turned back and retreated, and received a pass from Maxwell in the corner of the big penalty area.

'Mark, he's got the ball in the box, Nobor and full-back Igalen are up, watch the ball'

Mackin took a small step with the outside of his right foot to dial the ball, and the two defenders stuck one stuck the inside line and the other stuck the main outside line, and they didn't dare to stretch their feet easily, this is the penalty area, and this is Macqin taking the ball.

Then, I saw him knock on his heel, and after Maxwell came back from an offside position, he stepped forward again, "Beautiful, Mark knocked the ball with his heel, Maxwell cut into the box from the baseline"

Igalen had to give up Macqin and run to the bottom line to block Maxwell's cross, but he still didn't have time, and after taking a step, Maxwell vigorously swept the small penalty area.

Green struggled to make a block, Kuyt and Gerrard, along with two West Ham centre-backs, all slid into the back of the net, and you can imagine the man in the six-yard box turning on his back at the moment.

"Green blocked it, it was dangerous, and Vucinic", Peterson exclaimed, "he stopped the ball that Green was blocking, Keita leaned against him behind him, and Nobor came up to cover it"

There was chaos outside the small penalty area, and Vucinic had his back to the goal, had no chance to shoot, shook his shoulders from side to side, and then gently sent a return pass because Mackin was running laterally in the big penalty area.

'Mark, good chance, there's chaos in the West Ham box, he's unguarded at the moment, ...... shots,' exclaimed Petersen.

An easy kick, the ball went straight to the far corner side netting, 3:0, killing the game!

"Goaaaaaal...... Marc scored twice, an easy shot, West Ham's defense was simply beaten today, the game has lost suspense, Liverpool won completely"

Makqin and Vucinic smiled and hugged their shoulders and ran to the sidelines to celebrate, with the first two goals, this ball they were not so excited, West Ham, far from being as strong as expected.

Mackin even felt that they were not as good as before they were acquired, when they were still bloody and would fight, and now, they even lost their souls.

At this moment, he felt more and more that he was on the right path......
