Section 581 Bayern's lineup

(Cat Flutter Chinese) The game was played until the end, and the score did not expand again.

Manchester United also learned a lot after conceding the goal again, they just blocked in the box and refused to come out. It is very difficult for such a strong team to be effective, and Liverpool only attacked the goal until the end of the game, and failed to score again.

However, although the score of 3-0 is not big, it also guarantees Liverpool's promotion. To Liverpool's relief, by this time, the FA Cup has fallen one after another.

Everton eliminated Chelsea on penalties, Bolton did Arsenal 1-0, and now, Liverpool sent Manchester United away with their own hands, and several strong teams have already lost.

The teams that have entered the quarterfinals are all mid-range players in the Premier League, and the more Liverpool's game goes, the easier it will be.

However, there is another piece of news that is less encouraging: just days after the game, United won their first title of the season, and indeed in the last three seasons.

Although they lost the FA Cup, they beat Wigan Athletic 4-0 in the Carabao Cup final to claim their first title in three years.

Ferguson's life is indeed hard enough, and he was able to pick up this kind of championship at this time, which also made his position more stable. Although Liverpool said that they didn't pay much attention to the League Cup, but this title was won by Manchester United, that is another matter.

"We are very happy to receive this trophy. The FA Cup is significant, but so is the League Cup. Ferguson, who was interviewed, did not forget to say two words of 'blessing' to Liverpool, "Successfully won the league and FA Cup? I don't think Liverpool can do it, now they're on three fronts, they're the hardest working team in the Premier League, so I think they need to be more serious and hardworking. ”

This made many Liverpool players slander in private: Manchester United should not have deliberately lost to Liverpool, hoping that Liverpool would lose all the games in a multi-front battle, right?

But although he didn't say it well, it was true. Liverpool is now fighting on the third line, and among the four strong teams in the Premier League, they are the only ones who are still under pressure in the Champions Cup, the league, and the Champions League.

Unlike last year, this time last year, they had already been eliminated in the FA Cup, and they were half-dead in the league, and there was no hope for them early. At that time, they only had to think about the Champions League alone. But now, they're in big trouble.

The league naturally can't give up, and they have such an advantage with great difficulty. The FA Cup and the following opponents are all teams like Birmingham and Everton, and if you want to give up, you always feel a little unwilling. Although the Champions League is difficult, the benefits are also the greatest, and it can't be easily given up - after talking for a long time, Liverpool just doesn't want to throw anything.

There are 12 league games remaining, but in extreme cases they have 22 games to play – and that's without taking into account the FA Cup replay. This kind of consumption is indeed much stronger than Manchester United. After all, Manchester United needs to play, there are only 12 games left, Chelsea even if the Champions League is lucky, it will not play 20 games, in the same time, Liverpool needs to play much more games than others, naturally it is much more tired.

However, everyone still likes this kind of pressure, and other teams can't get this kind of pressure.

But having said that, it was really tiring, and the next day after the game against Manchester United, Liverpool was about to leave for Germany to play in the Champions League. After all, Chelsea are second in the group, and playing at their home stadium can be regarded as a leisurely game, while Arsenal do not have FA Cup tasks, and their last game was a make-up match against Liverpool, and after the game, they went to Madrid, which was also relatively easy. The really tiring part is Liverpool, who have to travel long distances, play the FA Cup on Tuesday, the Champions League on Thursday, and have to travel long distances to Germany, which is really tiring.

"Go to Germany and play Bayern...... I always feel that playing at the Olympic Stadium is better than playing at the Allianz Stadium, why not meet them next year, we can also have a good experience of the new stadium. ”

On the way to Germany, everyone was still chatting non-stop. When it comes to Bayern's new stadium, everyone is also envious. Bayern, like Arsenal, are building new stadiums, and by next year, they will be able to play in the new stadiums, which makes Liverpool complain a lot about the club when they talk about it: Liverpool's new stadium, Stanley Park, has been shouting for a long time, but now, there is no movement.

When we were talking, everyone was struggling with this issue, and there was not much attention to the strength of Bayern Munich's team.

Bayern are not in great shape at the moment, and Liverpool are naturally not very afraid of them.

Whoever it is, the main centre-back will not be very comfortable being poached in the middle of the season. What's more, the time is almost March, and Ballack's contract renewal problem has still not been resolved: when Bayern asked him to renew his contract, Ballack once again said that he would renew his contract three months later, before the start of the World Cup.

This is the third season in three months, and Bayern can be seen clearly, he really doesn't plan to stay, it's just that the World Cup is coming, and he can't openly tear his face with Bayern, the German giant.

What he wants to go to is a more powerful team.

There is nothing wrong with this idea: he is thirty years old, not young, and although he is known as a world-class star, he has only a few Bundesliga titles and the German Cup. Whether it is the World Cup or the Champions League, he is the runner-up, but in the football competition, the runner-up has no trophy. No one wants to be remembered for his pinnacle achievement after retiring, and it turns out to be the king of Sanya. After playing football all his life, he is recognized as a world-class star, but in the end, he is a bunch of runners-up in the honor book, and no one can stand it.

But there is indeed something wrong with his approach. In order to better pick the team when he leaves, the practice of deliberately dragging on not renewing the contract with the team cannot be blamed too much, but at the same time, he told the fans that he would definitely renew the contract, but after playing with the club three times for three months, he pressed it tightly, and told the media that the World Cup was under great pressure, and he didn't want to think about anything else before the World Cup, so that Bayern could not force it - such a method is indeed not very authentic.

What makes Liverpool players feel even more hateful is that it has always been rumored that his next home will be Chelsea or Manchester United, and these two, no matter where he goes, are not something to be celebrated for Liverpool. Manchester United's back is rotten to death, if he goes, it will definitely be greatly strengthened, and Chelsea's midfield is already thick and helpless, and now it has to be strengthened, no one can imagine what it will look like.

However, at least this season, he has not been to the Premier League.

In this game, Bayern sent the most luxurious lineup they could get their hands on. Goalkeeper Kahn, defenders Lizarazu, Ismael, Demichelis, Sagnol, and midfield Ballack, Schweinsteiger, Hargreaves and veteran Jeremes. And their forward line is Mackay and Pizarro.

This is a typical squad that is more powerful than famous.

Ismael is a defender from Ligue 1, who has played in Ligue 1, the Premier League, and the Bundesliga, and his strength is very good. But because he has not played in a big team, plus he is French, Blanco, Desailly, Galla, Thuram, and the current famous Mexes and Abidal have come one after another, so that the defender position of the French national team has never been short of manpower, so he has never been selected for the national team. In 2005, he was once rumored to join the German national team, but in the end, the German team thought he was too old, and the German team, which built the team in a young spirit, was unwilling to ask him.

He and Lucio are almost the same style players, and in fact, this is why Bayern are willing to let Lucio go: when Lucio and Ismael play together, they play too consistently.

Demichelis, on the other hand, is a player who debuted from Argentina, and this season, he mainly played as a central midfielder, and he played quite well, but because Lucio is gone, he has returned to the defender position. He is also the focus of the Argentine national team now, and is likely to represent Argentina in the 2006 World Cup, but Argentina has a number of excellent defenders such as Samuel, Ayala, Milito, Ibarra, etc., and he does not have many opportunities, and he also needs to show his strength now.

In the midfield, in addition to Ballack being the core of Germany, Schweinsteiger is also the main force of Germany's iron fight. Hargreaves and Jeremes are also a good pair of midfielders. When Jeremes was younger, he was a substitute in the national team – Hamann's substitute – and his style of play was a pure interception defender, and although he was older, he was in much better shape than Hamann now. Hamann has been relegated to the bench at Liverpool, but Jeremis is still a regular at Bayern. Although Hargreaves was born in Canada and became famous in the Bundesliga, he joined England, and several players in England know about his strength, and their evaluation of him is also extremely high.

Up front, Bayern used Mackay from the Netherlands and Pizarro from Chile. The former became famous in Deportivo La Coruna and scored well, but his problem is the same, the club is not famous enough, and the Dutch national team has been in a slump over the years, and secondly, there have always been stars who are more famous than him, covering up his fame. Although Kluivert is not well-known, he is also the most popular player among managers. And although Vanney's national team performance has always been very poor, he is also a big-name star, and Mackay can't compete with them, so there is no place. He is not very famous in the national team and club, but he does have strength.

And Pizarro is too difficult to get out because of the weak national team and the South American division, and he is not famous. But his strength cannot be ignored.

"When I look at their list, I always wonder if we are playing against Bayern Munich, one of the three monopolies in world football, or a second-rate Premier League team. A group of fringe internationals from powerful countries, plus a group of internationals from small countries, except for one Ballack, looks so bad. ”

Garcia forgot when he spoke, in fact, Liverpool is similar - if it weren't for the fact that Gerrard came out of the academy and bought Alonso and Zhao Yaning, they would not be much better than Bayern now.

"The list may not prove the strength. Don't forget Lineker's famous quote that football is a game in which twenty-two people run on the field and the Germans win. Gerrard still hesitated and admonished, "Be careful, I don't think we'll win." ”

"That's right, be careful." Zhao Yaning also spoke, "Don't forget, it's the devil's schedule now, and we can't lose a single game." If you lose one game, you will lose your morale, and it will be difficult to play in the following games. In this game, we have to be careful and not lose! "Cat flutter Chinese
