Section 655 Real Madrid's outcast
Chinese The excellent performance of the new formation made Garcia even more depressed: he played very well this season, both as a starter and as a substitute. Please remember the URL of this site: . It can be said that with his goal rate, he can get a main position wherever he goes.
Unfortunately, at Liverpool, his tactical role was not as obvious as Kuyt's, so he was only able to sit on the bench. Looking at a person whose goal rate is obviously inferior to himself and whose skills are obviously inferior to his own occupy the starter, and he can only be substituted, he naturally has some unhappiness in his heart.
However, he still knew the tactical significance of Kuyt, and was not happy in time, but he endured it. Benitez didn't bother him anymore and when it came time to play against Middlesbrough, he was still on the bench.
Middlesbrough's squad has dropped a lot this season, but they do have a major addition β they have strengthened their defence with a loan move to England from Real Madrid for Woodgate.
The player's injuries this season have indeed decreased a lot, and it has also allowed people to see his performance, but what about his performance...... It's really not good.
In the game, Zhao Yaning immediately broke through him with a long drive after a trial, went straight into the penalty area, and scored a goal.
And soon, after continuous cooperation, Zhao Yaning went straight to Semilito's kick and expanded the score again.
The game ended 2-0, which also made Zhao Yaning a little surprised by Woodgate's strength.
"I thought he was very strong." After the game, Zhao Yaning expressed his doubts in the locker room, "Being valued by Real Madrid, I thought he was very good, but I didn't expect him to be so easy to deal with." β
"His strength is like that." In this regard, Fowler, who has been in the Premier League for the longest time, still has a say, "The physical fitness is excellent, the heading ability is very good, and if you are flexible, it is excellent compared to the white players, but the white defenders have the problem of slow turning, and he is not much better." The white man is big, and when he encounters a dexterous striker, he must suffer a special loss. It's not uncommon for such a strong, slow defender to be like this, and isn't Terry too? But almost all of such tall defenders rely on their hard work, active scrambling, and high stability. However, as a tall central defender, he is not fast enough, but he is not active enough to fight and his form is not stable enough, even if injuries are aside, it is difficult for him to get ahead. Such a player, when playing against the middle and lower teams of England, can be extremely outstanding by relying on good physical fitness, but against a strong team, or if it is a change of environment, it is a waste. Real Madrid bought him, and he was introduced as a star of hope, but to *** hope, even Samuel kicked and smashed in Real Madrid, let alone him? He and Terry couldn't compare at all. β
In this regard, Zhao Yaning could only shrug his shoulders. Everyone knows that the English media love to brag. Woodgate didn't play, after Real Madrid's injury, the English media always boasted that if he didn't have an injury, his strength would be better than Terry - this is complete nonsense, Terry is indeed rough under his feet, and his technique is not good, but his toughness and excellence are rare in world football, compared to Campbell, he did lose in the physical fitness of the hardware conditions can not keep up, but compared to other post-future, he is indeed much stronger. Comparing Woodgate to him is complete nonsense.
Of course, white defenders can play at a very high level even if they turn slowly and some are not particularly tough. Nesta, for example, has a record of four humiliating goals by Montella in front of him, but there is still no denying that he is a good defender. However, Woodgate does not have such a standard.
After this game is over, Liverpool's next game is the Champions League Pisa, home to PSV Eindhoven.
Liverpool are now top of the group with three wins and one draw and ten points, while PSV Eindhoven are second in the group with seven points from two wins, one draw and one loss. If Liverpool win this game, then Liverpool will have a lot easier with their last away game against Galatasaray. It is even said that even if this game is a draw, in the next game, Liverpool will not have to make any effort.
Galatasaray's home stadium is still the world-famous home stadium of the devil after all, and Turkey is also very far away, where to go, after all, it is still very tiring, if possible, no one wants to go there desperately.
And in this game, Liverpool can be regarded as doing their best. Except for Figo, who has just recovered from injury and needs to recover from the problem, the players in other positions are Liverpool's best players.
Although PSV Eindhoven is the leader of the Eredivisie at this stage, its strength is actually declining. They still have Mendes, Farfan, KonΓ©, Gomez and other players, this season, but also brought the veteran Kluivert back to the team, the strength is still uncontested in the Eredivisie, but in the Champions League, their fighting power is getting weaker and weaker.
From the moment they started selling two Koreans, their strength has been declining, and after the departure of Hiddink last season, they have slipped even further. This season, after meeting Liverpool, they are no match at all.
In this game, they made a change: they put Chinese player Sun Xiang in the winger position. However, such an adjustment did not work at all, Liverpool's right side used a combination of McCone and Kuyt, and Sun Xiang was almost completely stuck by the two of them when he arrived here.
Kuyt, on the other hand, is on the wing, but the more he kicks, the more he is like a fish in water. This position gives him plenty of space to run and pull up the defence for his team-mates, while his willingness to defend ensures that he can serve the team non-stop, and the pressure on Liverpool's front court makes PSV Eindhoven unable to resist it very quickly.
And Zhao Yaning at this time, he was still passing the ball to try to activate Milito - his state has recovered a little, after all, he is a person who works hard enough, and he has always been very committed when he plays. Although he has been in poor form for a while since the injury, he has recovered a lot now.
And such efforts are clearly paying off. Less than half an hour after the start of the game, a pass from Zhao Yaning was sent to the penalty area, and Milito successfully ran out of a single knife, and after a kick past the goalkeeper, he sent the ball into the goal.
The 1-0 lead was not the end, and soon, a long-range shot by Zhao Yaning was blocked by the defender out of the penalty area, and Gerrard, who received the ball, immediately stuffed it to Kuyt, who ran into the box. Kuyt struck a cross and again gave the ball to Milito, who pushed from close range to extend the score again.
After the second half, Kuyt was replaced by Figo. After all, Figo also needs to be fit and he needs to play.
And after Figo came on the court, Zhao Yaning was also trying to distinguish the subtle differences. After Figo came up, the team's possession and passing up front was indeed better. But after Figo came up, the team's defensive steals went down. Figo is a good player, but he can't fight as hard as Kuyt. When Kuyt was on the pitch, Liverpool were not afraid to give the ball to the opponent's feet, but with Figo, it was difficult to ensure that every ball could be snatched.
The change in mentality is the biggest problem.
However, Figo does have his abilities. Soon after taking the field, he planned to attack. Although he can't make a good breakthrough now, he is still smart enough to run sideways with the ball. After attracting the attention of the opposing defenders, he kicked the ball to Gerrard, who ran to the wing, and after receiving the ball, Gerrard directly crossed the ball and sent it into the box.
Milito hit the net with another header, but this time, the ball was saved. Zhao Yaning grabbed the landing point, but when he raised his head, Milito had already relied on his own running position to open up space for Zhao Yaning, and flashed the angle of the shot.
Zhao Yaning raised his foot and shot from a distance, blasting the ball into the goal.
"You shouldn't have run like that, you could have a hat-trick." After celebrating the goal, when he was running back, Zhao Yaning couldn't help but speak.
"Isn't it the same who scores goals? It's all about scoring for the team anyway. Milito replied with a smile.
It seems that after the World Cup, he has grown a lot.
Milito has been looking forward to the World Cup very much before, and Zhao Yaning knows this very well. Players from the grassroots, after all, are different from geniuses, for many talented players, almost from the time of their debut, they are candidates for the national team, and when they are selected for the national team as a matter of course, they will naturally not feel how difficult it is, and they will even feel a little bored with being selected for the national team.
But the grassroots players are different, they don't come from a good background, they don't shine enough, they also want to get the attention of others, they can only do it through their own efforts. Entering the national team and showing off in front of the whole country is a very common thing for others, but it is a lifelong pursuit for them.
And for Milito, after the 2006 World Cup, he was also a matter of concern. The problems of the Argentine national team are far more serious than he thought, it is not a place where he can make a difference, he wants to achieve more and he has to continue to work hard in the club.
And at the start of the season, he started to try to play less egotistical, no longer focused on goals. Ignoring your own stats and doing your best to help the team can make the players further sublimated.
Milito had clearly figured this out of his mind, so he began to change his style.
With a 3-0 win over PSV Eindhoven, Liverpool also secured a place to top their group with 13 points. In this way, they don't have to work hard in the last game away to Galatasaray, even if they lose the game, it doesn't matter the big picture. And at this time, their energy should also be transferred to the league.
From the beginning, all the way to the Christmas schedule, they don't have any overly difficult cup tasks. Taking the power back into the league is something they need to do now.
In the 14th round of the league, Liverpool played Manchester City, and they won the game easily again. Zhao Yaning's free-kick goal opened up the game for Liverpool, and Gerrard then doubled the score with a long-range shot to give Liverpool a 2-0 victory.
Soon, in the final game of November, Liverpool were in some minor trouble, as they were held to a draw by Portsmouth in the league and were unable to secure a win. However, Manchester United also failed to win this game, and Liverpool still lead the league in points.
This season, Liverpool may have had some minor troubles, resulting in a poor first half of the season. However, at this time, as the squad is getting better and better, Liverpool has also proved that their strength is still one of the best in the Premier League, and they can still play well.
