Football’s First Defender

Liverpool's 11-game winning streak is triumphant, and Manchester City also regained two consecutive victories after losing to a direct confrontation with Liverpool, continuing to maintain a 4-point gap.

In the subsequent schedule, the one that can best help Manchester City stop Liverpool may be Chelsea, which ranks third in the league.

In the last stage of Liverpool's devil's schedule, the four giants teams have been defeated by Liverpool three times in a row, and Chelsea is the biggest enemy that Liverpool needs to face in the end, preventing them from winning the championship.

But, are Chelsea capable of stopping Liverpool's winning streak at Anfield?

In the first year of Mourinho's return to the Premier League, he has excellently integrated the existing personnel of the team.

Although in the final competition for the Premier League title, Chelsea was left behind by Liverpool and Manchester City, which had a terrifying winning percentage, Chelsea's breakthrough in the Champions League this season is still gratifying.

If we say that a few weeks ago, many neutral fans still had defensive confidence in Chelsea under Mourinho, and believed that Chelsea had a chance to become a spoiler in the Premier League championship.

Now, before the start of the thirty-sixth round of the league, it is widely believed that Chelsea may only be a stepping stone on Liverpool's road to the Premier League title.

Liverpool has performed well in the league this season, and has achieved an impressive record of 11 consecutive victories. With 3 rounds left in the league and leading by 4 points, as long as Liverpool does not make big mistakes in a row, the championship will be won by Liverpool is a breeze.

The same as Liverpool's absolute advantage in competing for the league title, Chelsea's second half of the season is not bright in the east and bright in the west.

In the league, the ups and downs of the record made Chelsea withdraw from the competition with Liverpool and Manchester City.

But in the Champions League, Chelsea was lucky all the way, avoiding many giants and successfully reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Mourinho is eager to prove himself with another Champions League champion. Although he has led Real Madrid to the semi-finals of the Champions League before, making the Champions League Shiro become the Champions League Shiro, but the Champions League champion is the most honorable honor. Mourinho I am eager to lead the team to win the cup again after many years.

This league matchup against Liverpool happened to be in the middle of the two rounds between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid.

In the first round, Chelsea drew 0-0 with Atletico Madrid in the away game. Back at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea had the opportunity to defeat Atletico Madrid in one fell swoop by virtue of their home court advantage and reached the Champions League final.

After the first round of the UEFA Champions League, in the face of questions from reporters, Mourinho has made it clear that the team will rotate players in the game against Liverpool to ensure the main force of the team. In a better game state, go to the second round of the Champions League.

Although what they said to the media before the game was not counted, the Liverpool players still relaxed their vigilance for the match against Chelsea.

The blocking of the previous three giants teams was defeated by Liverpool. Even against Chelsea's main force, Liverpool has an absolute advantage at Anfield, let alone Chelsea's player rotation.

For many Liverpool players, there was not so much tension in this game. Everyone was very relaxed and dealt with this game "normally".

As long as Chelsea can be defeated, then the championship will definitely fall into the hands of Liverpool and will not run away.

In the two training sessions before the game, the atmosphere of Liverpool's entire team was somewhat cheerful, and the players were very relaxed.

Although I don't know whether the relaxed mentality of the teammates will help adjust the state.

Anyway, for Yang Feng, following Zenit or Chelsea in the past, in the long season, when the final championship was won, when the team was about to win the championship, it is true that the coaching staff would find ways to reduce the pressure on the team, but Liverpool Is it too relaxed now?

So relaxed, in the last training session before the game, everyone was a little lazy, patronizing and discussing some off-court matters.

So relaxed, Yang Feng felt that his teammates had underestimated the enemy.

Unlike others, who are full of longing for the championship, Yang Feng is more worried now.

3 rounds are enough for many accidents, and the 4-point lead is not so safe.

Most people think that Chelsea will be helpless in this game.

But Yang Feng is familiar with "history", knowing that in the original time and space, Gerrard "knelt down" in the game against Chelsea, which made Liverpool's good situation in the league disappear instantly, and finally achieved Manchester City's comeback to win the championship.

And Gerrard, until he retired, had no chance to win the Premier League trophy in person.

Even with the addition of Yang Feng, a "little butterfly", the wheel of history is rolling forward. The "butterfly", which should have caused a tornado, finds that the trajectory of history seems to be not much different.

It's still Liverpool at the top of the league, it's still Chelsea distracted by the Champions League, it's probably going to be a big rotation in this game, it's still Manchester City behind Liverpool, keeping close...

If it was still Chelsea's "substitute lineup" that made a big upset at Anfield, and it was still Liverpool's inexplicable collapse at the end, then Yang Feng helped Chelsea change the history of the team before, but he will fail in Liverpool?

So what is the defensive significance of Yang Feng's joining Liverpool?

Like Yang Feng, there are still a few Liverpool players who maintain the clearest understanding and have done enough homework in preparing for the game.

Captain Gerrard has rarely smiled in front of his teammates recently.

Pressure, 20 years of expectation, from being young and frivolous to the end of his career, Gerrard longs for this Premier League championship. When he is about to touch this trophy, for Gerrard, he must use the most correct game attitude , to help the team continue to win until they win the championship ahead of schedule.

Carragher, the deputy of the old team, is also meticulously preparing for battle.

With the introduction and supplementation of Liverpool personnel, and the absence of huge injuries to Liverpool's central defender this year, Carragher did not have many opportunities to play in the last season.

However, he still prepares conscientiously for every game, waiting for the head coach to be recruited, so that he can devote himself to the game in the best state.

Carragher, who once thought about retiring last season, is now very glad that he chose to persist for another year.

Now, as a player, being able to follow the team to win the Premier League championship trophy that every Liverpool fan yearns for is definitely the happiest thing for Carragher.

No one can stop Liverpool from winning the title, not Chelsea, not Crystal Palace, not Newcastle, their last-round opponents.

Liverpool has waited for this championship for too long. No matter what kind of lineup Chelsea has, Liverpool must win strongly.
