Chapter 481: Sure enough!
With a two-goal gap, little game time left, pressure from Chelsea's attack, and most importantly Zhang Tiehan's frequent threat to the goal, even if Gerrard is full of fighting spirit and Red Army spirit, it is difficult to give Liverpool his team-mates any hope.
In the final minutes of the game, Liverpool also attacked, but the effect is needless to say.
Chelsea were a little more 'merciful', although Zhang Tiehan also showed a very good performance in the final time, and helped Drogba and Kalou find good opportunities, but the latter two did not seize the opportunity to break the goal again, and the score was stopped 3:1, and Chelsea finally won Liverpool.
This big battle is very eye-catching.
Liverpool's table of the whole game is very, whether it is the first half or the second half, they did not let Chelsea take too much advantage, in the second half under the leadership of captain Gerrard, they also scored a wonderful goal, but in the end they still did not escape defeat, football games are like this, there are victories and defeats, Chelsea has won, so they failed, they failed helplessly, at the end of the game, the faces of the Liverpool players were full of loneliness.
After this defeat, they have fallen to the top 10 in the league table, and it will be very difficult to catch up, let alone compared to Chelsea, who have won five in a row, and even Arsenal, who have also had poor results.
This season in the Premier League belongs to Chelsea and Manchester United.
This is the opinion of the media, the opinion of the fans, the opinion of various experts and beasts, but in this game, the Liverpool players feel that there is some truth in what they say, they have tried their best to play, and in the end they lost 3-1 to Chelsea, Chelsea is a little too strong.
The most frustrating thing is that their strength is built on Liverpool's weakness.
Their best player. No. 9, Zhang Tiehan, he didn't have a few tables in the whole game, especially in the front, but he scored two goals and completely dominated the game with his individual ability. The few few appearances were enough for him, and it was here that Liverpool were most depressed, with Zhang Tiehan, who played for Liverpool last season, but now became part of their rivals, Chelsea, and helped Chelsea win against Liverpool.
Many Liverpool players are starting to miss last season.
Last season was also a match between Liverpool and Chelsea, and the helpless side was Chelsea, when Jose Mourinho's Chelsea was strong enough, they could almost be said to dominate the Premier League, Manchester United, Arsenal. Even Liverpool can't compare with them, when Chelsea and Liverpool play, they can always suppress Liverpool all over the field, but in the end, Liverpool has the advantage in several meetings this season, and they even have a big win against Chelsea!
At that time, the reason was Zhang Tiehan's outbreak.
And now the reason has not changed, it still lies in Zhang Tiehan's outbreak, but the result is reversed
Many reporters in the media table also talked about the game. Some of them have come up with the idea that Liverpool is losing to 200 million euros, and they explain it this way. 'Liverpool sold Zhang Tiehan, 110 million euros more financially, they spent half of the player to supplement the strength, but they didn't spend it completely, so they couldn't beat Chelsea.'
This explanation is also very interesting.
In the summer, Liverpool made a lot of money by selling a Zhang Tiehan, and at the same time, they also sold players such as Cisse and Morientes. Then a lot of money was spent on buying players, and in the end Liverpool made a net of 70 million euros, while Chelsea spent even more, adding up all the plus and minus, Chelsea's net negative summer finances minus Liverpool's net income. It's exactly around 200 million euros, so Liverpool lost to 200 million euros.
Media reporters are like this, many people are still saying that they want to take this as tomorrow's news release, of course, these are those who do not support Chelsea's reporters, in their opinion, Chelsea is an explosive household, purely with money to pile up stars, but I have to say, this is definitely a bit sour, the general trend of world football is money to open the way, each player is worth tens of millions, it is obviously impossible not to invest money to be strong, even if the youth training is very complete Manchester United, really from the Manchester United academy, How many players are there for Manchester United?
This brings us to the development of young players.
Manchester United's academy is good enough, right? There has always been great talent in the Manchester United Academy, but it will be difficult for them to play for Manchester United in the future, because when they are growing up, they simply can't meet the standards of the first team, there is such talent, but it is very, very rare.
If you don't meet the standards of the first team, you can't play for the first team, so these talents can only be loaned out, on loan for 1 or 2 seasons, and they can't play, or they can be favored by other teams, then it is possible to transfer to other teams, even if you can play out, it is not easy to reach the level of Manchester United's first team, the players of the top teams are naturally the top, but the geniuses may not be able to reach the top level, so a single Manchester United academy is not enough for Manchester United to use, So most of their players still have to rely on buying really good talent all over the world, and in that case, they have to spend a lot of money, and that's the way professional football is.
And Chelsea, who has heard of the Chelsea Academy?
In recent years, except for one John Terry, who was really trained in the Chelsea Academy, even Frank Lampard did not come out of the Chelsea Academy, but he came to Chelsea relatively early, and spent time in both the Chelsea youth team and the development team, so the Chelsea media put Lampard on his head a 'Chelsea-made' hat.
In this way, Chelsea wants to have excellent players to buy, so what those reporters said that Chelsea is piled up by pounds is not accurate, it should be the case with all the big clubs in Europe, but in recent years, Chelsea has invested more.
Chelsea don't care what the media says.
In the years since Roman Abramovich took over the club, they have been used to hearing a lot of 'pound team' and so on, and even Blues fans are proud of it because they can buy good results with money, and some clubs have a hard time achieving that, from that point of view. And they're doing really well.
After the game, a number of Chelsea players were interviewed to express their joy at the victory.
Captain John Terry said after the game: 'It was an important game, it was said before the game that it was a test of Chelsea's quality and now the results are out and we did well. I hope this form lasts all season! ”
Terry said that he was very scrappy, but it was difficult for such an official statement to attract the media, so everyone went to interview Zhang Tiehan again.
Zhang Tiehan was surrounded in the mixed zone.
He was clearly the protagonist in this game, both against his former club and because he was also the best player of the game, scoring two goals and proving a lot.
Zhang Tiehan smiled happily and said, "I'm very happy to win, 3:1." We've done a good job! But it's a joint effort, I've worked hard, my team-mates have worked hard, and I want to give kudos to everyone in the team, they're all outstanding! ”
"It's a good sale for teammates," the reporters complained secretly.
I only heard Zhang Tiehan continue, "Everyone is very good, but we also exposed some problems in the game, such as in terms of cooperation. We need to do better and it will be a lot easier. I've heard a lot of fans say they want to see beautiful football. I think if we work together more, we can play more beautifully, and we will work hard for that! ”
These are words from the bottom of my heart.
Zhang Tiehan feels that the team's cooperation is not very good, at least not as good as Liverpool last season, which is his inner feeling, perhaps also because Chelsea does not have a technical midfielder like Alonso. Chelsea's home stadium is full of players like Frank Lampard, Claude Makelele and Essien, and he is now the core of the midfield, and he is very tightly limited by the opponent, so the whole team is not very well organized, and many times it depends on the individual ability of the players. Thankfully, Chelsea have the edge in that area and everyone on their pitch is one of the best players in the world.
A reporter asked Zhang Tiehan to share his views on the game.
"They defended very well, I felt bad about the whole game, but they lost in the end in terms of fitness, yes, that's what I thought, in the end they couldn't run, and I could continue to run, so I scored the last goal." ”
Such a statement made the reporter wonder
They weren't surprised by this sentence, but was it a little too modest for this sentence to come out of Zhang Tiehan's mouth? Even if he points out the victory or defeat, he should say what he looks like, instead of saying how the other party is.
That's not his character!
Zhang Tiehan continued, "I'm very happy to score, the goal against Liverpool was wonderful, I scored two in this game, and the next time I go to Anfield, I hope to score more!" ”
Really! This is Zhang Tiehan!
The journalists laughed.
They are laughs from the heart, not ridicule, not sarcasm, but the kind of laughter that sees what should have happened.
They have long been accustomed to Zhang Tiehan saying this, and when Zhang Tiehan does not say anything similar, they will feel strange, Zhang Tiehan does not know the feelings of reporters, if he knew, he would definitely sigh, 'Habit becomes nature, this is really true'.
After the interview, Zhang Tiehan went back to the locker room to change clothes.
He would have liked to have a meal with Gerrard, but given the busy schedules of the various clubs, Gerrard was likely to go straight back to Liverpool with the team, so he didn't do so.
He went straight home after the race.
Since coming to Chelsea, Zhang Tiehan has found that he has a feeling of homesickness like everyone else, and it is indeed much easier to stay with Lola at home, watch TV, cook, and live a normal life than training at the training ground.
Perhaps more importantly, no matter how much he trains now, he doesn't feel any improvement.
His strength has reached the top stage, and if he wants to improve again, he can only rely on ancient power and supernatural secret skills, and ancient power needs honor, and he can only hope that Chelsea can win a championship honor this season, so that the next ancient power can be opened.
That's what he's looking forward to most when he comes to Chelsea. (To be continued......)
