1447 The London Twin Falls

Ferguson hated Manchester City!

The conditions came when the FA Cup Manchester United travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool and the Liverpool vs Manchester City League Cup semi-final came just three days apart.

Ferguson naturally hopes that Manchester City can consume Liverpool to the maximum!

The result?

Alonso, Gerrard, Qin Xiong, none of them played, and Liverpool still looked to have won a game that didn't break the kettle.

This left Ferguson furious, mocking City on the eve of the FA Cup fourth round for inexplicably losing the game at Anfield.

Koeman, on the other hand, has well adjusted Liverpool's overall form in his strategy and arranged the players' appearances reasonably.

Maximize the use of resources at hand.

When the fourth round of the FA Cup kicked off, Manchester United arrived at Anfield.

Liverpool still have a 4312 formation, but the starting XI looks very different from the last game.

Goalkeeper: Reina.

Defenders: Baines, Thiago Silva, Ag, Baines.

Midfielders: Tiot, Alonso, Gerrard, Mascherano.

Forwards: Raul, Qin Xiong.

The defense of the midfield line was handed over to Tiot and Mascherano, the central axis of the front and rear attacking organization was Alonso and Gerrard, Qin Xiong partnered with Raul on the front line to attack, and the wing attack was naturally handed over to the full-backs.

Manchester United's backline has been degraded by the natural collapse of the centre-back duo of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, and the lack of a hard midfield is also a clear weakness.

Liverpool dominate at home and slaughter at Anfield!

Ferguson expected Liverpool to have at least physical problems before the game, but after Manchester City were unable to consume Liverpool, or Liverpool used reasonable rotation to get through the difficulties, the Red Devils were faced with a dynamic Reds.

In the 21st minute of the game, Alonso made a delicate through pass from the back, Raul passed the ball in front of the penalty area to Gerrard, who was inserted diagonally into the box, and then swept the ball to the back of the goal in the penalty area.

Qin Xiong, who broke away from Evans' defense, pushed the ball into the empty net at the back post.

Liverpool opened the scoring, and Qin Xiong, who opened the goal account, was out of control.

Just before half-time, he cut wide from the left side of the box and then volleyed the ball into the top corner of the United goal without a hint of spin.

De Gea could only look at the ball and sigh.

United fought back in the second half, which gave Liverpool more opportunities to attack and counter-attack.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Qin Xiong retreated to receive a pass from Baines on the midfield line, and he began a long-distance run.

First got rid of Park Ji-sung's pressing on the spot, then let Carrick slip to the ground in the acceleration of the ball, and then pedaled a bicycle in front of the penalty area and shook Evans, making Evans' center of gravity move wrong, and after entering the penalty area, Qin Xiong sent the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal with a deft push.

De Gea roared at the backline!

The Spanish goalkeeper, who is getting better and better this season, can't accept that the team's defense is so vulnerable!

Ferguson sighed helplessly from the sidelines.

In the past, Manchester United also had a player who could do this, and that was Cristiano Ronaldo.

But now, Manchester United don't have such players.

Qin Xiong, who scored three goals and scored a hat, was adored by Reds fans at Anfield.

With the league to go in three days' time, Liverpool slowed down the pace of play after taking a three-goal lead and United did not rise up at Anfield.

Ferguson knows Liverpool are at their current level and it will be difficult to shrink their defence and be beaten by their opponents.

After the game, the Anfield crowd cheered.

Liverpool stepped on Manchester United's corpse to advance to the last 16 of the FA Cup!

Stepping into February, Liverpool is a real four-front battle this month!

League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup finals, all played at the same time this month!

The weight of the mission is unimaginable, a total of 7 games!

That's an average of one race every four days!

Ahead of the Champions League rush in mid-month, Liverpool will have to make some adjustments.

The first game of the 23rd round of the Premier League was Liverpool's away game against Wolves.

In this game, Coman sent Qin Xiong and Suarez, Kuyt's trident.

The team showed great power away from home, Qin Xiong wore a hat in a row, and his state was extremely hot.

5:0!

Liverpool are triumphant on the road!

The second was Chelsea, with Roberto Di Matteo's Chelsea merely delighting the Blues fans as they travelled to Swansea, Wales, where they drew 1-1 away at Swan Haswansea.

Chelsea's difficulties in the league are unimaginable, and a big part of it is because Spanish striker Torres, who came to Stamford Bridge last year for £50 million, has not been able to find his form!

No amount of Chelsea's attacking efforts have been in vain.

At home to Swansea, Chelsea don't look like a strong team at all.

After falling behind 0-1 and Cole being sent off again, Chelsea even "broke the can" for a while, and the players committed unnecessary fouls, kicking people, and venting the depression in their hearts, which was jaw-dropping.

In the 87th minute, Meireles maliciously fouled and received a yellow card, and soon after, David Luiz came up to kick the opponent unnecessarily, and even worse, when the referee blew the whistle for a foul, Torres on the side looked very annoyed, and he used all his strength to kick the ball in the direction of the referee, venting his frustration.

Fleet Street blames Liverpool in part for the 'disaster' at Chelsea.

Jokingly said that Coman played a big game of chess.

Sending Torres to Chelsea back then was a sweetheart bomb for Stamford Bridge!

Speaking after the game, Di Matteo admitted that there was no hope of winning the title, stating that the goal in the league this season is to secure a top-four finish and qualify for the Champions League, which is the "minimum goal".

However, with the current points situation, Chelsea with 42 points are not optimistic, Tottenham Hotspur has made a comeback to occupy fourth place in the table after the New Year, and has left the Blues by seven points, and the momentum is very strong, among the chases, Arsenal if they win one game less, only three points less than Chelsea.

The most worrying thing is, of course, Chelsea's current momentum, the last two rounds of the league against promoted Madrid 0:0 Norwich, 1:1 Swansea have not been able to win, the problem of lack of attack is undoubtedly revealed, Sunday will play Manchester United at home, Cole red card suspension, Lampa Dramires and other injuries, Drogba can not come back, the difficulty can be imagined.

However, what can make Chelsea comfort is that Arsenal, the difficult brother in London, did not win this round of games!

Arsenal exchanged a goalless draw with Bolton Wanderers at the Reebok Stadium and drew 0:0! (To be continued.) )
