The effect of training is not good, because Chen Yu's physical condition is very average, Chen Yu is Liverpool's barometer, he is in average condition, and it is difficult for Liverpool to play at a high level. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Why Chen Yu is like this Benitez knows very well, that is, the game is too intensive, Chen Yu's physical fitness and spirit are too tired, but now the game has reached the second half of the sprint stage, which game can not be easily given up, which game is not easy to play, just like the FA Cup and Barnsley game, Benitez originally hoped to let Chen Yu rest half the game after locking the win, but such a game with obvious contrast between strength and weakness was actually won thrillingly, not to mention other games.

Maybe the FA Cup is really going to give up, otherwise if it continues to be tight, the team will definitely collapse, and now in addition to gritting your teeth to hold on, you also need to find an easier game for the players to take a break, the players are people, not machines, and it is impossible to survive until the end of the season with the strength of the spirit alone.

However, fortunately, the other players are in good shape, in normal state, with the difference between Schalke 04 and Liverpool, even if Chen Yu's condition is slightly worse, other players in normal condition can beat Schalke 04 with home advantage.

After the training, Benitez took Chen Yu to a pre-match press conference.

This is Liverpool's first Champions League knockout game this season, Liverpool up and down are very serious about this game, football games are like war, morale is very important, if the first game can be played well, the morale and confidence of the players have come up, and the next games will be easy to play, even in the face of stronger opponents, it may also play beyond the usual strength.

This press conference was Benitez's pre-match mobilization for Liverpool's players.

A giant team like Liverpool, their every move has received great attention from fans and the media, especially stars like Chen Yu, Gerrard, and Benitez.

Benitez unscrewed the mineral water on the table, took a shallow sip, and then said: "Journalists, fans and friends in front of the TV, good afternoon, tomorrow we will leave for Germany to participate in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, today I hold this press conference to report to you on the team's preparations......"

Benitez talked eloquently, starting from the team's current position in the league, FA Cup, and Champions League, all the way to the physical condition of each player, and then to the club's financial situation. Therefore, Chen Yu, who was sitting next to Benitez, did not have any opinion about Benitez because of this, in fact, even Chen Yu himself often did this, and it is estimated that he would have to learn from some of Benitez's statements when he spoke below.

With Benitez, the absolute number one person in the team, Chen Yu paid attention to it when he spoke, and he couldn't steal the limelight from the coach, otherwise the next game would be difficult.

Benitez talked very comprehensively, and Chen Yu said very specifically, just about the team's current preparations, but also talked about his own situation, which is what reporters and fans are most interested in, Chen Yu is satisfied with his state, thinking that in the second half of the season to have the current state is already very good, this is his second season in the Premier League, due to Chen Yu's injury last season for half a season, this season is Chen Yu's complete season in the Premier League, Chen Yu has a deep understanding of the intensive competition and high-intensity confrontation of the Premier League, and of course, Chen Yu believes that these can be overcome, and if he returns to his best form, he believes that he will help Liverpool defend the Champions League and the league.

After Benitez and Chen Yu both spoke, the press conference did not end, and there was still the highlight below, which was to interact with reporters and answer some questions from reporters.

Step-by-step speaking can be learned by anyone, but to be interviewed by reporters, this is not something that ordinary people can do, which requires strong professional knowledge and strong adaptability, although many issues are discussed in advance, but there are always exceptions, and you must be prepared.

The first question was asked by Liverpool's local reporter David, as a local reporter, David has a very good relationship with Benitez, Chen Yu and other important QQ members, and the day before the upcoming trip, David will certainly not make trouble.

"After listening to Coach Rafa's introduction, I think this game is really important, I don't know how sure you are of winning this game in this away game?" David asked.

Benitez welcomed such a formal topic, and he said with a smile: "First of all, I would like to emphasize that Schalke 04 is a strong team, and the team that can reach the last 16 of the Champions League should not be taken lightly, and secondly, football is round, anything can happen, we will be ready for the game and try our best to give the fans a good game." ”

"In the last FA Cup game against Barnsley, Liverpool decided that the two teams were two teams in the first and second halves, why did this happen, is there a problem with the tactical arrangement, or is there a problem with the mentality of the players, this game against Schalke 04, will similar problems still occur?"

A reporter from The Sun was a much sharper question.

Benitez frowned when asked, but he still has enough experience to deal with such problems, "The last game was a problem with the mentality of the players, and we learned the lessons after the game, this game against Schalke 04 and the FA Cup are two different concepts, I don't think the players are making the same mistakes. ”

Then several reporters asked, and most of the questions were related to the game, and Benitez answered them one by one, but a reporter from the "Guardian" who asked Benitez was obviously not satisfied with such a formal question and answer, and he directly pointed the question to Liverpool's most sensitive economic issue, "I heard that Gillette and Mr. Hicks plan to sell Liverpool because of financial problems, and the issue of the player's salary increase and contract renewal has not been resolved, what kind of impact will this have on Liverpool, are you ready for this?" ”

Benitez's face sank suddenly, this is definitely a deliberate provocation, but the club's economic problems do exist, if you entangle with the other party in this regard, you will only make yourself more passive, Benitez said with a cold face: "I don't know what you said, I'm just a coach, that's not my scope of work, I believe the club's management will deal with this." ”

After answering this question, Benitez knew that he could no longer continue to accept questions, so he quickly handed the microphone to Chen Yu and asked Chen Yu to answer the reporter's questions.

The reporter's interest in Chen Yu is much greater than that of Benitez, Benitez is also a star-level big-name coach, but his status in the eyes of fans and the media is still much worse than Chen Yu, Chen Yu's interview means sales, seeing the microphone to Chen Yu, the reporters immediately forgot the hot question just raised by the reporter of the "Guardian", and put their minds on Chen Yu.

Chen Yu looked at the reporters who were scrambling to ask him questions, and glanced at coach Benitez very resentfully, recently he has been participating in more and more press conferences with Benitez, and Gerrard is getting less and less, not so much that this is the coach's trust and reliance on him is increasing, but that Benitez is more and more interested in his ability to attract reporters' firepower.

However, Chen Yu must take the call, after all, as the head coach is to represent the entire team, Benitez needs to bear more responsibility for speaking, and even if he Chen Yu is famous, he cannot represent the entire Liverpool, even if he occasionally says the wrong thing, it can be said to be a personal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the team.

"Schalke 04's junior goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is known as a talented goalkeeper and he threatened to keep Liverpool clean sheet in this game, what do you think about that?"

A British journalist was the first to steer the conversation to a war of words.

"I think he's too young and it's normal for him to be unreliable, and I don't think he will underestimate the striker after this game."

Chen Yu also hopes to draw the reporter's mind from the club's financial problems to the upcoming game, and he will be sharper when answering questions.

"What do you think of Schalke 04? Are they talking about holding Liverpool at bay in the Ruhr? Another British journalist fanned the flames.

Chen Yu has been in football for many years, and he also understands the importance of the first knockout game to the team, plus he has to share the firepower with coach Benitez, he must attract all his saliva, so he said: "The goal of Schalke 04 is us, but our goal cannot be Schalke 04, as the most successful team in the Champions League, Liverpool, our goal is to defend the title, on this difficult road, Schalke 04 is just a small ditch." ”

"Schalke 04 are only in the middle of the pack in the round of 16, they have never reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, do you think they can pose a threat to you in this game?" A Chinese reporter asked excitedly.

'The Germans have always been difficult to play, they have a strong whole, they have great strength and fitness, and although I am confident that we will knock them out and get to the quarter-finals, they are still capable of causing us some problems. Chen Yu said confidently and calmly.

The Chinese reporter didn't stop after asking a question, and then said: "Can I ask a question that has nothing to do with the game, when will you get married, and almost all the fans want to know who your last bride is?" ”

Chen Yu's brows furrowed extremely slightly, and he immediately stretched out, and said, "Have you counted all the fans?" Reporters should speak with facts, what I can tell you now is that don't have so much heart for ****, I will definitely get married when it's time to get married. ”

At this time, a British reporter asked: "I heard that you are living with ******** women now, I want to ask, what is the relationship between you and these two women?" ”

Chen Yu, Zhang Youzhen, and Zhao Muyu are not without rumors, but because Zhang Shubin also lives with them, no one has said anything about this, and now this British reporter is asking such a question when so many TV broadcasts live, and using the word cohabitation, which is definitely an ulterior motive.

Chen Yu became angry when he heard this, and sneered: "Mr. reporter, do you also use the word cohabitation when you live with your mother and sister?" ”

The British reporter was enraged by Chen Yu's vicious words and said, "As far as I know, you are not related to these two women by blood. ”

Chen Yu slapped on the table and said angrily: "These two women, one is my personal doctor, the other is the daughter of my agent, my agent also lives with me, what you just said He Juxin, dirty thing, you are not worthy of being a reporter at all, you get out of here, I will not accept interviews with you and your newspaper in the future." ”

This British journalist is a reporter for the famous "News of the World", and he did not show weakness, obviously trying to make a big deal out of the matter, saying: "You are not qualified to let me get out, I have the right to interview." ”

Chen Yu sneered, saw the words "News of the World" on the reporter's microphone, and said: "Okay, if you don't get out, then I'll go, but I tell you, if you don't get out of the "News of the World", I will forever refuse your interview." ”

After speaking, Chen Yu pushed the British reporter away and walked out of the press conference hall.
