Section 455 Footsteps of the Final
U8 Update Fastest Reading Network "Perhaps, we are all overestimating Chelsea." Looking at Liverpool, who have begun to fully shrink their defense, Martin Taylor also understands in his heart what the outcome will be. If Liverpool wants to defend to the death, Chelsea, which is missing one man, will not be able to beat it no matter what. He looked at the situation on the field and couldn't help but speak, "If you think about it, Chelsea's game this year ...... It's really not dominant enough. ”
In this year, Chelsea has been devastated in the league, and it is true that they have earned a lot of scores, and it is precisely because of this that they are considered the representative of the Premier League, the strongest team, and even crowned by the media with various honorary titles such as dynasty, kingly style, domineering, and power football representative.
But are their results really that good?
A closer look at their results against strong teams shows that this is not the case at all. Against Arsenal, both games were drawn, against Liverpool, the goals in both games were scored by Joe Cole as a substitute, and the League Cup final was also dragged into extra-time thanks to Steven Gerrard's own goal. The elimination of the FA Cup can be said to be an accident, but in the Champions League, the away game with Barcelona can be said to be because of the person who was sent off, but the home game made the venue like a rotten vegetable field, and was chased back two goals at home. Had it not been for a suspected foul on John Terry's header, they would have been eliminated in the round of 16. In this world, is there a team full of the wind of kings, who will say that the opponent is Ferrari and we are a small broken car? And against Bayern, the advantage is to win at home and lose away. If it weren't for the opposition's own goal, they could have been eliminated due to the low number of away goals. Throughout the season, except for the first game of the season against Manchester United, Manchester United was caught off guard, and the home advantage was exchanged for three points, and they did not have enough quality every time they met a strong team. And I have to mention that since the Premier League, Chelsea has always had an advantage against Manchester United, and they have not been afraid of Manchester United since Mourinho took over.
It can be said that Mourinho has given Chelsea stability against weak teams, but he has not been able to give Chelsea the ability to play against strong opponents. Against tough opponents, Chelsea are still poor.
Mourinho relied on his own tongue to portray every defeat he had as someone else's machime in the media: there was a black whistle in the league and the FA took care of Manchester United. There is a black whistle in the Champions League, and he offended the referee. English football discriminated against him because he was a grape-eyed man, and Barcelona discriminated against him because he worked as a translator. All of this makes people lose sight of Chelsea's true quality. And relying on Chelsea's public relations results, the media are enthusiastically boasting about Chelsea's strength, Chelsea's greatness, Chelsea's loss is unreasonable, Chelsea's loss is a black whistle - they use this way to put pressure on opponents, referees, and even upper management, so that their game can be smooth sailing, and when they meet weak teams in the league, they can be as invincible as withering and decaying. But when it really comes to the Champions League semi-finals, when it really becomes a duel between the strong, Chelsea's inability to attack is exposed.
Jose Mourinho has certainly turned Chelsea into a powerhouse, but he has never given this team the strength of a team at the level of a king. He built Chelsea like a jīng secret instrument, looking majestic and unbreakable. But the problem is, football is not a robot game. People get sick, they get hurt, they can have all kinds of problems, and it's impossible to expect people to play like machines. Jose Mourinho, on the other hand, has not been able to solve these problems.
Moreover, football is not a track and field competition after all. Faster, stronger, higher, is indeed what football is all about. However, those flashes of wisdom and experienced offense and defense are what the real powerhouses need when they clash. It is not enough to wipe out all the self-thoughts in the players' minds, and let them execute the tactics non-stop like jīng dense instruments, without any tactical zì yóu and time to think.
'If the Chelsea players weren't so young, maybe they could have played a little better......
Martin Taylor's words also have some emotion.
Relying on the slightest hint of tactics to build a weak team into a strong team is indeed a good way. But if you want to turn a strong team into a top team, it is not enough to rely on tactics. In the final analysis, football games are played by people, and without the right players, the advantages of tactics cannot be brought into play, and no one can make up for the shortcomings of tactics, and it will not be able to reach the highest level after all. Milan has insisted on acquiring veterans for many years, Juventus is also older, and Real Madrid and Barcelona have always spared no effort to buy players, don't they talk about tactics? Apparently not. Bosque, Lippi, Capello, Ancelotti which of these people is not a master tactician? But why do they have all kinds of favors for the players who play sè? Isn't it because the talents of these people are the ones who can really decide the outcome of the duel between the strong?
Chelsea spent 200 million, but not a single star bought. They have shaped muscle football, and they are counting on this set of muscle football to play against the best teams in Europe, which simply does not work.
'But the good thing is that Chelsea are still young.' That's the only thing Martin Taylor can say.
Yes, Chelsea are young. Someday, they will grow old, they will learn from experience, and they will fail again and again to make themselves smart. They will be as cunning, intelligent, full of experience and wisdom as the veteran players of Milan and Juventus, and they will no longer rely on muscles, small tricks, or jīng tactics to compete with their opponents in the game. They use their brains to make up for their shortcomings and use the best choices to bring glory to their teams. Only then can Chelsea be a real powerhouse.
Liverpool, who stood opposite them, took the opposite path.
They don't have the consistency of Chelsea's team against weak teams, their staffing is not good, the substitutions are not good, and the depth of the squad is not good, so that in the game, they have to consider giving up multi-front operations and only thinking about playing on one front.
However, they chose the most difficult path. They chose to confront countless strong opponents on the road to the Champions League. Perhaps, this is forced helplessness: because the league is hopeless, the FA Cup is unexpectedly out, and they have to choose the most difficult path. However, they did not give up, they walked on this road, extremely hard, but very determined. They know there is no way back – and if they do, Gerrard may be a Chelsea man next year. There is only one way for them to go, they have no chance to start all over again, so they have to learn how to face strong teams, how to fight bravely, how to defeat the strong with the weak.
Only the most difficult adversity can allow courage and tenacity to grow. Liverpool have no way back, so they are extremely resilient. Chelsea, on the other hand, have not yet been pushed to the point of no return.
Let Liverpool teach them a lesson and let them thrive with the tears of failure. Martin Taylor silently thought that no matter who wins, it will be a victory for the Premier League, and the rise of the Premier League is unstoppable -
"The game is over, Liverpool have won the game! Liverpool won the game! Liverpool have reached the Champions League final! Liverpool have won their ticket to the Champions League final! ”
The moment the whistle blew at the end of the game, the whole of Anfield was in jubilation.
What a celebration!
In an instant, in the stands of Liverpool, portraits of Shankly and Paisley fluttered high. The red sè bird was held high, and the red sè streamers were scattered around, and the victory in this game was, in the eyes of the Liverpudlians, as happy as winning the championship.
"This is Liverpool's second Champions League final after 20 years." Martin Taylor was also a little excited, "Twenty years ago, Liverpool played in the last Champions League final - the final was against Juventus, and the venue was Heysel Stadium. After that game, English football went into decline...... After 20 years, Liverpool returned to the Champions League final, and this also shows one thing to the whole of Europe: Liverpool is back, England is back! The Reds, who once feared all of Europe, are back, and English football is not far from returning to the top! ”
At this time, Gerrard also happily jumped on Carragher's back, and the players hugged each other and frequently expressed their gratitude to Liverpool's KOP stands.
'I really didn't expect to be able to reach the Champions League final. Before the season, I thought that the goal of this season was to finish in the top four in the league and qualify for the knockout rounds of the Champions League. Gerald hugged Zhao Yaning, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Thank you, Joey." These are your credits. ”
"No, that's everyone's work."
Zhao Yaning was not full of emotion at this time?
In last year's Champions League, he beat Lokomotiv Moscow, Real Madrid, Chelsea all the way. At the time, it seemed incredible. But in this year's game, Bayer Leverkusen, Juventus, and Chelsea, all of them are stronger than last year, and the strength of the Liverpool team is not much stronger than last year's Monaco, but it is such a team, but it has won one game after another.
Whose credit is this? Zhao Yaning knew it in his heart. Benitez works more than ten hours a day, and every game will be tactically arranged against Xìng, every detail, every little problem is not missed, which has made Liverpool come to this day during the period of strong opponent feeding.
He's the brains of the team.
Whose credit is else? As the captain, Gerrard did not waver in the face of twice the high salary, and insisted on staying in the club. Abou's high salary, Chelsea's promised title, none of which made him want to leave, the backbone of this team, was injected by him.
He's the backbone of the team.
And Carragher, this season, he has the most attendance, the league has not fallen, the Champions League is also a game, although he has a prison, there are complaints, but when the team needs him, he has never flinched.
He is the heart that beats silently.
My credit...... Yes, I also have credit, we are the skeleton of this team, flesh and blood, weapons. But the main credit for getting to this point is not mine. Thank you to my team-mates, thank them for their greatness, thank them for their dedication, only when we are together, we are Liverpool, we are a team, we are a complete powerhouse.
Never walk alone – I finally get what you mean.
