1245 Double Red Cross
In response to Ferguson's remarks, Fleet Street began to make things difficult for Koeman again. XsHuotXT
After last season's success, Koeman already has the majesty of a top-class manager.
He said lightly in his pre-match press conference: "I won't play this game with the Manchester United manager, it doesn't make sense, whatever he wants to say, Liverpool has their own pursuits and goals, and they don't need to be dictated, it's a very strange phenomenon, it's not normal for a team that is not performing as well as the other team to comment on a team that is performing better, so why should I respond?" ”
Coman knew very well in his heart that if he choked with Ferguson, it was equivalent to falling into the other party's "treacherous scheme", and the scheming Ferguson was already a grandmaster-level coach at the level of psychological warfare, and there was no need for him to compete with each other, and it was still a battle of words.
Ask all the Liverpool players: do you care a lot about not having a League Cup and FA Cup trophy at the end of the season?
Unless Liverpool's big four are empty, then of course Liverpool will care.
But if there is a league championship or a Champions League title, I believe 99% of the players will say: whatever! The League Cup and FA Cup winners are a piece of!
Of course, this does not mean that Koeman despises the League Cup and FA Cup, but only that things are prioritized and the goals pursued are also ranked in terms of importance.
Liverpool is now more concerned about whether they can continue the strong last season and have a monopoly on important trophies!
This is an important foundation for the revival of the dynasty!
The Double Red Cross will be staged on the evening of September 19.
Reds fans arrived at Old Trafford with pride, and years of repression were finally released, and the Reds were no longer pressed by Manchester United!
Red Devils fans are in a completely unending posture with Liverpool.
If Manchester United had won the Premier League title last season, Ferguson would have fulfilled his rhetoric: kick Liverpool off the throne!
It's a pity that Liverpool finally won the title, which led to the failure of Ferguson's ambitions, or maybe a few years later.
But given that Ferguson is no longer young, no one can say when he will choose to retire.
This left a wave of anger suppressed in the hearts of Red Devils fans.
When Liverpool was on the verge of the throne, they turned over!
I'm afraid this is the most unbearable thing for everyone.
On the evening of September 19, Manchester United and Liverpool started a war at Old Trafford!
The players of both teams walked into Old Trafford with their heads held high.
"Welcome to Old Trafford, where the fifth round of the Premier League season will conclude with an English derby. A pinnacle showdown between two of England's traditional giants!
Manchester United's new season can be said to start high and low, with two wins and two draws, while Liverpool have won four in a row, and this six-point battle will be extremely crucial.
Andy. Do you think Manchester United's quality in four games in the new season will be able to compete with Liverpool in the new season? ”
'Martin, I think it's a bit difficult, although Ferguson is known for his ability to combine teams, but the overall quality gap is a bit big.
In other words. Manchester United and Liverpool are on par with the team's overall consistency, but on a few occasions, the key players who decide the game depend on the individual ability of the stars.
In this regard, Manchester United are already behind Liverpool.
At critical moments, Liverpool has top stars such as Qin Xiong, Gerrard, Torres, and Raul.
What about Manchester United? Rooney may be one, but is there any? Berbatov is not a big player at all. Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes are both old, and they will have flashes of time, but it will be difficult to be the hero of the team.
That's why I said Manchester United need to bring in high-quality players, but their financial situation over the years doesn't allow them to spend a lot of money on stars, which is a big reason why I think Manchester United is gradually going downhill, and the current team has to spend money to improve its competitiveness! ”
"Okay, it's no wonder that Ferguson had to play psychological warfare with Liverpool at the beginning of the season, but unfortunately Liverpool manager Coman didn't take it."
'Koeman is doing the right thing, Liverpool have gone from being a challenger to a ruler. They don't have to mind the voices of last season's losers, it would only add to the annoyance, and Koeman is something I admire, most of the winners are carried away by the position they are in. It has to be recognized by the outside world and shut up the losers, but it's all done in the wrong way, just like Keegan back then, and Coman is right to use this pragmatic attitude to fight back against the harsh voice. ”
'Coman looks like he knows exactly what to do. That's a good thing for Liverpool.
Okay, let's take a look at the lineups on both sides.
Manchester United today 442.
Goalkeeper: Edwin van der Sar.
Defenders: O'Shea, Nemanja Vidic, Evans, Evra.
Midfielders: Nani, Fletcher, Scholes, Giggs.
Forwards: Berbatov, Wayne Rooney.
Rio Ferdinand's absence through injury is a big loss for Manchester United and will leave their backline at risk.
Liverpool 433.
Goalkeeper: Reina.
Defenders: Johnson, Carragher, Skrtel, Aurelio.
Midfielders: Mascherano, Alonso, Gerrard.
Forwards: Raul, Torres, Qin Xiong.
Liverpool's squad is more full-ranging, with Fernando Torres, who has previously been under criticism scoring twice in the Champions League a few days ago, will be questionable whether he will be able to score in the league today, as he has been in good form against Manchester United.
The Double Red Festival is about to begin, let's wait for a big battle to begin! ”
Liverpool and Manchester United set out in formation at Old Trafford, with both teams looking at each other as they awaited the start of the game.
Ferguson sat in the dugout of the home team, his face calm, but his heart was by no means calm, and the strength of Liverpool and Chelsea in the new season made him feel like he was on pins and needles.
United have dropped four points in the new season and have also suffered the absence of defender Rio Ferdinand due to injury, leaving the future of the new season uncertain.
After many years, Liverpool, which had been trampled under the feet of Manchester United, is now in full swing, and Ferguson can't swallow this breath in his heart.
Even neighbours Manchester City are going from strength to strength in a recruiting spree, and Ferguson knows things are going to get harder and harder for United.
Koeman, on the other hand, was calm and could say that he had beaten Alex Ferguson since he arrived in England.
Liverpool are now more focused on consolidating their position.
A championship is not enough to prove anything, if Liverpool starts to relax now, thinking that it is firmly in the country, then it is likely to be forgotten in a few years, just like Real Madrid, which once set a season of incomparable glory, the higher you stand, the harder you fall!
On the pitch, Liverpool's momentum is clearly stronger than Manchester United!
Now, the Reds are the kings of English football, not Manchester United! (To be continued.) )
