For the Liverpool players, they have just seen a strange scene outside Newcastle's home stadium - everyone has heard of the funeral of cats and dogs, and it is not uncommon. But it's about holding a funeral for the stadium...... It's the first time they've met.

But for the Newcastle players, it will certainly affect their mood somewhat.

We're all Newcastle players, and they've been with Newcastle for at least half a season, and in the past, even they have always called their stadium – St James's Stadium, rather than some kind of mouthy sports pitch.

Now the name of the stadium has suddenly been pried down in a rude way, and many players who have been with Newcastle for many years really can't accept the result for a while. It was already in the past, but the funeral of Newcastle fans has rekindled the churning dissatisfaction and sorrow in their hearts.

Newcastle head coach Pardew has also noticed the subtle mood changes in his players. For a manager, it's essential to know what the players are thinking.

He realised that if he let that emotion interfere with the players' performance, it would be a bad deal. Although Liverpool have not been in good form in recent league games, they are also an opponent to be reckoned with. The players had better keep their spirits up, otherwise it would be a big loss to lose the game on their home turf.

He walked into the locker room and slapped his face.

Everyone looked up at him.

'I understand the anger of the fans about taking down the St James' Park marker. But remember, you're not fans. Once the game starts, it's the result on the pitch that matters. I think the fans trust the players and they know you're going to put in the hard work. Don't chill the fans, they're here to watch you win, not a bunch of absent-minded people sleepwalking on the pitch. Otherwise, they might have done better on their own. Guys, Newcastle is great not because of the name of a pitch, but because your predecessors have accumulated every game of victory and defeat. Please keep that in mind. ”

When Chen Yingying followed his teammates out of the players' tunnel, he raised his head, looked around, and sure enough, he saw the new red and blue logo on the eaves of the stadium - "Sports Direct Stadium".

"That's a terrible name...... Chen Yingying muttered.

He felt sorry for the Newcastle fans - such a tasteless owner would be laughed at when the fans of other teams called their home stadium.

With a capacity of 52,387, St James' Park is the third largest stadium in the Premier League, behind Old Trafford and Emirates. When Newcastle was founded in 1892, it was its home turf. The sale of stadium naming rights is nothing new in England, with three stadiums in the Premier League named after their sponsors: Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, Bolton's Reebok Stadium and Wigan's D Stadium. But all three courses were relocated and built with sponsor funding, and even then, the naming was controversial due to its lack of humanity and excessive commercialization. And there is no precedent in the Premier League for a famous stadium like Ashley to change the name and surname of a 120-year-old stadium...... Knowing this, it is not surprising that Magpies fans would go to such an extreme point as burying "St. James's Park" to express their dissatisfaction.

The Newcastle players were normal after the start of the game, which may have had something to do with what manager Pardew had said before the game – they were still pulled out of their mind-wandering state by Pardew.

So they took the lead very quickly, and it wasn't just a goal.

In the first half, Newcastle played at home and took a two-goal lead. This somewhat diluted the sadness of Newcastle fans about the home renaming.

St James' Park ...... Uh, no, it should be that the atmosphere in the stands of the sports stadium is much more lively than at the beginning.

But it's not all about cheering for the team, it's because they're finally relieved to attack club president Ashley – Newcastle fans have to worry about Liverpool's equaliser when they were only one goal ahead before. Now that they are both two goals ahead, what is there to be afraid of?

Now the show is ...... Scold damn Mike as much as you like. Ashley!!

Newcastle fans have changed their tactics and sung songs to attack their club president.

"Ashley! You are a sinner in Newcastle! You're going to hell! St. James's Park is watching you from above! ”

"We have an idiot, an idiot that none of you have! He made us ugly! Lost people! That idiot is Mike. Ashley!! ”

Ashley sat in the podium, expressionless and completely unrecognizable to the name "St. James's Park".

How much do Newcastle fans hate Ashley?

There was once a man named Alain. McCann's Newcastle fans, just because he looks too much like Mike. Ashley, so he was beaten up by angry Newcastle fans. Although he argued at the time that he was not Ashley because he was not as fat as Ashley, he was beaten half to death. Even when he went to watch Newcastle play live, he was repeatedly abused by the fans.

So much so that now he can't wear a Newcastle shirt when he goes to the stadium, but a white T-shirt with the words: "I'm not fucking Ashley!" ”

The stands are so lively, but the game on the pitch is a little dull.

To be honest, it wasn't a good game and Newcastle had nothing to show apart from two goals.

But football is like that sometimes it's like that, you don't play well, but you can win.

Of course, Newcastle's poor performance was able to lead by two goals because their opponents Liverpool were even worse......

"Neither the Liverpool team nor Chen Yingying's performance has improved. Liverpool's best performer right now is Suarez, whose dribbling and break-through are the team's most dangerous attacking plays. But he lacks support, and more often than not, he goes it alone......"

"The performance of the heroes that Liverpool can rely on the most is still sluggish, of course, in fact, his performance is not logically sluggish, it can only be said that it is average. But who made his previous performance too good? It's completely beyond the scope of ordinary people's cognition, so when his performance is just average, we will feel that he is in a slump......"

Yes, Chen Yingying's performance in this game cannot be called a slump, it can only be regarded as a ...... General(). But everyone's expectations of him were too high, so as long as he didn't play to the level he should have, everyone swarmed to say that he was in a slump.

Of course, Chen Yingying still doesn't have to head the ball. People still don't know why? Is there a wound on his head that he can't touch?

This kind of thinking is close to the truth, but everyone thinks it is nonsense - who saw that Chen Yingying had a wound on his head? Okay!

What does he do if his teammates still hit a high ball without a header?

Chen Yingying invented a way, that is...... Stop the ball with your chest!

Yes, it's harder to use your chest than your head, and you can't jump up to fight others. But Chen Yingying worked tirelessly and persistently to do so. Because that's the only way to go......

The first half ended in this dreary rhythm. Newcastle have a two-goal lead, and if you compare the performance of their opponents Liverpool, it should not be a problem to win this game.

So throughout the half-time break, Newcastle fans were in tandem to discuss how to continue to deal with Ashley in the second half.

In the locker room, Dalglish's face was solemn.

The future was uncertain after being two goals down on the road, and although he had been prepared, he didn't expect it to be so bad.

Liverpool's players are also feeling depressed. This is the third game since head coach Dalglish decided to change his team's attacking tactics, and the team has not won a single game.

If it weren't for Dalglish's prestige, I'm afraid that the players would have rebelled by this time. It's also a good thing that Dalglish has such a lot of prestige within the team...... Otherwise, the team would have been in chaos a long time ago.

In the face of such a situation, Dalglish is really right.

He had no choice but to say: "I won't put any pressure on you for the rest of this game, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, anyway, our goal for this season has been accomplished......"

Yes, the team has already qualified for Europe. Even if you lose all the next games, as long as you don't get relegated, it doesn't matter.

This is a bit frustrating, but it is a real reaction to the team's situation. Faced with such a situation, there is nothing Dalglish can do. The only thing he could do was keep going. In fact, even if there is no such thing as Chen Yingying, he has already realized that if Liverpool's tactics do not change, I am afraid there is still no hope. Modern football, continuing to cling to what was more than ten years ago is already a dead end.

Either way, if he wants to make Liverpool's tomorrow better, reform starts with himself.

Chen Yingying looked at the boss's face, in fact, he was only sixty-one years old, but he looked as if he had aged ten years quickly.

He knows why his boss ages dramatically.

He couldn't sit idly by anymore......

Otherwise, it's too boring, right?

Many people think that Chen Yingying is not in good form in these games, in fact, only the first game against Queens Park Rangers is really bad, and other times he is more dragged down by the team's overall sluggish form. But who calls him the team's number one star? The team can't win the ball, who don't scold you? Naturally, he was also under a lot of pressure. It's just that Chen Yingying didn't take these pressures seriously.

The team's performance is still not improving, so what can you do to pull the boss along?

It's a free kick!。
