661, the day of the yellow robe

The 8-2 win over Southampton marked the start of the two-month Devils' Schedule.

'Yesterday's Carabao Cup, although we were behind at the start, we showed a good performance, both the process and the result, and the FA even struggled to select the best player. Still, I would like to ask a few questions that I hope you can improve on in future training and competitions......"

It's the second day of training sessions and Liverpool's chief performance analyst Glenn Driscoll is leading the players through a review of the last game.

- Watching videos and learning from experiences is also part of the training.

When he finished, the rest of the coaching staff added to each other according to their respective responsibilities.

The last to speak, of course, was Rogers:

"Gentlemen, December has arrived, and I hope everyone is ready.

Rotation and competition will continue to be the key words during this period and we need to make sure we get through this difficult schedule in the best possible shape and try to minimise injuries.

We have a Europa League group game next week, a two-legged Carabao Cup semi-final and an FA Cup game in January, so everyone will get plenty of playing time and I hope no one complains about playing too much! ”

There was a burst of light-hearted laughter in the conference room.

In addition to long-term injuries, every player has indeed been given a lot of playing opportunities, even the second goalkeeper Bogdan has made nearly 10 appearances in half a season, and most of them are very satisfied with the current situation.

"OK, that's the end of the morning training, the players who started yesterday can rest freely in the afternoon, and the rest of the normal training will be disbanded."

Rogers clapped his hands and added:

"Oh yes, Jordan, Dragon, Lucas, you three stay a step."

-

After about 20 seconds, the room was completely empty.

In addition to the three players of Ronshert, Henderson and Lucas, the coaching staff also left only Rodgers and Mike Marsh.

Long Shute was a little puzzled.

He's certainly the absolute core of the team, Henderson is the captain, Lucas is the team's seniors, but he's just a rotation player, shouting them together, is it because he wants to have an intra-team meeting?

But...... Recently, the team has won consecutive games, everyone's appearances have basically been satisfied, and the atmosphere in the dressing room has been very good, so there is really no need to do more, right?

Rogers didn't explain it personally, and it was Mike Marsh who spoke first.

The former pro who came through the Cocoby Academy and played more than 100 games for Liverpool has returned to Liverpool since 2009 and is older than the manager.

"That's right," he coughed slightly, "Jordan made a suggestion to the coaching staff, and he wanted every player on the team to take responsibility for their abilities. ”

Long Shut raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but look at Henderson.

What does this guy mean?

What does it mean to be responsible?

Do you mean I'm scoring too many goals?

Please, please hum Captain take a look at the assist list, who is the one in the first place?

We haven't said that you just recuperate from illness and don't work, and you even sue the wicked first?

Fortunately, before Ronshit was ready to beat Henderson, Mike Marsh quickly changed his account:

"What Jordan means is that he wants a teammate with more leadership qualities to take on the role of captain of the team."

Henderson nodded repeatedly, he didn't want to be torn to pieces by the dragon's gaze......

Captain?

Long Shute was stunned.

Although the captain's armband was worn on his left arm throughout Henderson's injury, he did not want to occupy the position.

On the one hand, in the modern football world, the gold content of team captains has decreased significantly; On the other hand, he has just joined the team, and he directly staged an infighting scene to grab the class and seize power...... There is nothing good for the club that is recovering.

Even when he joined AC Milan at the height of his prime, he never competed with Ambrosini or Kaka for the captain's armband.

So Long Shute shook his head:

"Jordan, I appreciate your generosity, but ...... I don't have any particular requests in this regard. ”

But Henderson also shook his head:

"No, you listen to me, Dragon. Do you know how much extra pressure I have been under because of this captain's armband for quite some time?

You may not understand, Dragon. After Steven left, there were fans and media who would compare me to him, including myself, and I couldn't help but do it.

But the result was disappointing, as he captained the team at the age of 23, then led the team to the Champions League at the age of 25, became a world-class midfielder himself, and even finished in the top three of the Ballon d'Or.

I'm 25 years old too, but I've never been a top player, and my biggest hope is that one day I'll be in the 50-man squad for the Ballon d'Or, and just one time is ......enough."

He later said a lot about the expectations and pressures he was under, the hopes and disappointments he experienced.

Lonsette joined Liverpool for half a season, and there has never been such a long exchange between them.

Henderson concluded:

"I thought about it for a long time when I was recuperating from my injury, it wasn't my impulse, but I had a request."

Long Shute nodded:

"You say."

He had been impressed by the sincere but not incompetent captain.

Just listen to what Henderson said:

'If possible, play for as long as possible at Liverpool.'

Long Shute suddenly laughed:

"Unless there is another financial crisis that bankrupts all my properties at the same time, I will definitely retire from this club. Thank you, Jordan, and although I don't want to be captain, I thank you. ”

Henderson almost spat blood:

I'm so humble from the bottom of my heart, why do you still say that?!

-

At Liverpool's daily press conference on December 4, Brendan Rodgers took the initiative to announce the news:

"After careful consideration and friendly consultations, we have made some changes to the selection of the team captain:

With No. 8 Ronshette as the first captain, No. 14 Jordan Henderson and No. 21 Lucas Rewa as the second and third captains respectively, it is believed that under the leadership of the three captains, Liverpool's players will be more united and the dressing room atmosphere will be more harmonious. ”

Beside him, the three captains lined up one after another, each with a faint smile on their faces, and it looked really harmonious.

But the reporters didn't care about that, and they quickly used their talents to concoct eye-catching news:

"The dragon tumor is revealed! Gerard's appointed successor has been completely squeezed out by him! ”

"The vice-captain has been seized from power for many years! Under the obscenity, Henderson can only force a smile! ”

"Rogers has become an accomplice of the dragon! There was only one voice in the locker room of the Red Army from then on! ”

"The majority of players dare not speak out! A number of generals are plotting to escape from Anfield in the winter window! ”

"Give me back the hum Captain! The Chinese boss is destroying Liverpool's traditions! ”

"The odds of winning the championship have plummeted! How will Liverpool, with internal and external troubles, survive the devil's schedule?! ”

Long Shute pursed his lips.

Lao Tzu's team is obviously advancing on all fronts, why did it suddenly become an "internal and external trouble"?!
