"McCa, I want to talk about Roy Keane, hehe, in your opinion, will his Sunderland stubbornly snipe Liverpool and create opportunities for Manchester United, or will they pit Manchester United?" , taking advantage of the team's entry into the field, Peterson smiled cheaply and began to throw out the topics that had been prepared for a long time.

'I remember,' he continued, 'after the last Reds game at Anfield, Roy Keane made a big fuss about the United midfielders being soft eggs now'

McManaman also laughed and joked: "Roy and Manchester United are hated by love, especially his relationship with Ferguson, the first two years were very tense, as we all know, Roy has always been a tough guy captain who dares to speak up, but publicly criticizing his teammates has discredited him, even if he leaves Manchester United, he still hasn't controlled that mouth"

Peterson flipped through the information and continued: "Roy led relegated Sunderland back to the Premier League last season and also won the Championship Manager of the Year, but when it comes to the Premier League, Roy's magic is not there, and now they are hovering on the edge of the relegation zone and are in jeopardy"

Mack Qin knew that leading Sunderland to promotion was the most prominent achievement of Luo Cannon's coaching career, and he was fired one after another year in the future, and finally had to be mixed with the assistant coach of the Irish national team.

McManaman said: "No matter what Roy thinks, he doesn't have a choice, his Sunderland results are dismal at the moment, this is at Anfield against Liverpool, it's up to him to decide"

Mackin still admires this Luo cannon, he stood on the field and looked at the former Manchester United captain on the sidelines, Roy was already in a suit, but he still couldn't hide the fierce look on his face.

Four, three, three, this Luo cannon is indeed bold enough, in the away face of Liverpool dare to discharge such a formation, this is their usual formation this season, the formation is a good formation, but we also have to see if the players can do it.

The best players in the world are Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho, but what team are they coaching? This formation is too demanding of the players' abilities.

Four-three-three, covering the whole field, you can imagine how big the distance between the players is when attacking in the midfield, melon-style four-three-three relies on ball control and pressure, super personal one-on-one ability, can press you to play, and naturally the players have plenty of time to run.

Mu style four three three rely on world-class wingers to counterattack, his midfielder three is three beast waist level defensive hardness, you can't break me, two wingers counterattack one hit one accurate.

The average team playing four, three, three is not like four, and it can't be pressed and can't be stable.

Thinking of this, Mack Qin thought of Jurgen Klopp, who later became a big believer in the four-three-three winger in-line at Liverpool, but his early shortcoming was to ignore the ability of Liverpool's midfielder and two full-backs at that time.

At that time, he should learn from Mourinho's pragmatism, play counter-attacks first to ensure results in certain games, and then slowly improve the squad, and the players can only achieve all-round pressing.

Otherwise, it will not become an embarrassing situation of being strong and not weak and not weak, and then he shuttled, as for whether Klopp can achieve his ideal lineup, maybe time will give him the answer.

Liverpool's line-up today has not changed much from the last game, except that the left wing-back Kuyt has become Benayoun and the right wing-back has changed back to Arbeloa, and the players on both sides shake hands and wait for the whistle to blow.

Ferguson and the whole Manchester United team are not in a hurry to return to Manchester, but the whole team watched the live broadcast of the game together in the hotel, although it is unlikely that Sunderland can stop Liverpool now, but who can say the football game, in case Sunderland breaks out.

There was a whistle from the referee on the TV, and Makqin received a soft knock from Torres and kicked the ball back to Alonso outside the centre circle, who found Gerrard who was rushing forward on the right with a precise diagonal pass.

Liverpool's tactics in this game are summed up in four words, that is, the left closes the right top, and when doing the analysis of the tactical meeting, it is said that Sunderland's two central defenders, Evans and Collins, are the two most stable points in their defenders.

Evans is a veteran of Manchester United and Collins is also a Premier League player, they are both traditional English centre-backs, tall, large defensive, excellent headers, and if they don't come out in the box, it's a problem.

But their two full-backs are not good, right-back Jamaican Northworthy's strength is also Championship level, and left-back Badsley is the strength of the future Premier League relegation team, but now he is too young.

Benayoun cut inside to the left midfield to create space for Enrique and Torres on the side, which would also allow Collins to come out and defend Torres dynamically, and Torres would be much more dangerous than a pestle in the box.

Gerrard stepped forward into the box to make an impact right winger, young Badessley had to resist him, Mackin waited for an opportunity to pass the ball in the right midfield, Alonso cut in, Mascherano dragged back to prevent a counterattack, and Abello responded.

This is the tactical style of play they have practiced in the past two days, and it is extremely targeted.

Gerrard stopped the ball with a chest, carried Bardesley along the sideline a few steps and rushed to the corner of the penalty area, making a cross, which was actually a stop-and-go smash, and immediately shook off Bardesley and passed back to the middle of the penalty area.

Mark Qin patted the horse to arrive, picked up his right foot, made a diagonal pass to the penalty area, deceived Whitehead on the side in front of him, and the moment he touched the ball, he closed his foot and knocked the ball from behind him to the left side of his body with the arch of his right foot, and then half turned around and immediately picked up his left foot.

Whitehead is still just a young man who has played in the Premier League for two seasons, and he can be spotted at Huddersfield Town in the future, and he is immediately shaken off by Mackloin's feints.

Benayoun cut inside to meet the middle, and Alonso came up from behind, but Mackloin curled the ball with his left foot and headed straight over his head past Benayoun and Northworthy, who was following him, to the left touchline.

A red whirlwind blew quickly, "Enrique~~~", Peterson had to interrupt and shout loudly before he could finish introducing the opening lineup.

Without slowing down, Mack's diagonal pass across three-quarters of the field landed exactly on his running step, and he took advantage of the momentum and immediately rushed to the baseline, and right winger Murphy ate behind him in embarrassment.

Mackin felt that his foot felt quite good from the beginning, and this accurate long pass could be seen, and after passing the ball, he immediately ran towards the penalty area, ready to compete for a possible second landing point.

Sure enough, Enrique caught up with the ball, without pausing, and immediately it was a curling cross!

Ferguson's heart tightened, he clearly saw on the TV that Torres was in front, Gerrard was behind, Mackin formed a triangle of outflanking in front of the small penalty area, and outside the penalty area, there was Benayoun who was ready to pick up Enrique on the big penalty line, and Alonso who was inserted into the top of the penalty area, this attack was extremely threatening.

"Torres ~~~, head at the front of the goal, Gordon! , Scotland international Gordon blocked Torres's header with his legs~~, the ball bounced up and fell to the middle of the penalty area, and, Mark ......", Peterson explained the movement of the ball very quickly.

...... the ball, Mackin saw the ball jumping over, and immediately turned sideways to prepare for a flat draw, but the ball fell a little slowly, and the back Kieran had already pounced, so he had to jump up and raise his legs sideways and struggle to reach the ball.

"Mark, sideways volley~, he didn't kick the power, the ball hit Kieran's body, refracted to the back point, Gerrard~~, fell to the ground and shot ......"

Peterson's words on TV made Ferguson's heart beat faster, and every time he shot on goal, he felt like the ball was going in, and it was less than a minute into the game.

"Oh~~~", there was a huge sound of regret from the back of the stands, and it was almost like Gerrard's tackle finally hit the leg of Bardesley, who was struggling to fill the position at the far post, almost next to the post, and slid out of the bottom line.

"Oops, bad luck", the chat group in the sine live broadcast room swiped the screen, and the game was also broadcast live in China, "Don't you enter?" ","Silence","Silence+1"

Mackin and Gerrard both sat on the ground and were depressed for a while, Sunderland was really a bit of shit luck, the opening attack was one of the offensive routines they practiced, I didn't expect the opening game to go so smoothly, but the luck in front of the goal was really bad.

The whole team was relieved that they didn't go in, which was great.

Roy Keane didn't change his temper when he was coaching, and he was shouting from the sidelines: "Show me, don't miss anyone, damn it, concentrate!" ”

He led the team to promotion, and now, despite the mediocre results, he has not fallen into the relegation zone, and the prestige of the team is still there.

Alonso ran past to take a corner, Carragher didn't fight for Evans, he headed it out of the box, and the central midfielder Miller, who was defending at the top of the box, swung the ball back with a header and swung the ball towards the midfield.

Mascherano got the ball in front of striker Jones and immediately pushed it to Torres, who retreated from the back post to the penalty area.

He shook his left shoulder with his back, and then immediately switched the center, knocked his left foot, and half-turned along the big penalty area line, just wanted to make a long shot, and the back smash on both sides of the penalty area line was also his habitual action.

Sunderland must have studied him before the game, Collins behind him was not shaken away by him, and then he wanted to stretch his leg to break the ball, but his speed was not as fast as Torres after all, and he tripped on Torres's foot.

"Toot", the referee blew the whistle in time and gave Liverpool a direct free kick.

'Fernando Torres was tripped and Liverpool had another good chance in front of the penalty area, Maika, Liverpool started the game very aggressively and got into form pretty quickly,' said Peterson.

McManaman looked very happy and said: "Liverpool showed the attitude they should have, the momentum was like a rainbow, the opening tactics were estimated to be rehearsed, the combination of passing and running, the play was smooth and fast, and it tore apart the defensive line of Sunderland's back seven at once"

Peterson continued: "This is a free kick on the left side of the penalty area of about 25 meters, which is more suitable for left-footed players, Liverpool's free kick takers are Gerrard and Alonso, but they are both right-footed players, and the cross is more suitable in this position, and the angle of the shot is a little small."

McManaman said: "Benitez is also a good manager from set-pieces, Gerrard scored a free-kick at the beginning of the season and hasn't scored from a direct free-kick in the league since, I don't know how he feels now, or what kind of combination he will play"

Manchester United's generals became nervous again, losing one by one with Liverpool, and a few hours ago, it was still Liverpool who watched them in a worried mood.

Scotland international Gordon was nervously directing his team-mates to line up the wall, and Gerrard and Alonso were both good at heavy gunning, and there was a slight gap that they could just volley.

"Murphy, Murphy, come to the left," said Gordon, holding the left post, looking at the gap between the wall and the free throw, "Miller, Miller, the guy who stood up to them at the wall"

Sunderland discharged a six-man wall, Gerrard and Alonso stood by the ball, as if discussing something, Mascherano was against the wall, loudly complaining to the referee that Sunderland's wall had been rubbing forward, and the two central defenders and Torres had gone to the penalty area to prepare to head the ball.

Mackin stood near the corner of the penalty area without a sense of presence, and Jones on the edge of the wall kept turning his head to look at him, ready to prevent Liverpool's free-kick combination.

Liverpool put on a shot, cross and triple threat posture as they waited for the referee's whistle to blow.
