The Ball at Your Feet

After this game, another selection result came out. In the team of the year selected by "Team News", Zhao Yaning was selected again.

"Team News" this time in the selection, the evaluation is a 433 formation. The goalkeeper is still Buffon, and the left and right defenders are Cafu and Zambrotta. The centre-backs are the current Chelsea double centre-backs Terry and Carvalho. In the midfield trio, in addition to Zhao Yaning, the other two are Porto's Maniche and the best player of the European Cup. The Greek Zagorakis ranked fifth in the Ballon d'Or vote. The three forwards, Adriano, Shepchenko and Ronaldinho were elected.

The selection of this lineup is still the consistent style of the "Team Daily", which is more famous this year. Henry, Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy all lost the election, and the election of Adriano and Ronaldinho already shows their attitude.

In the midfield, although Deco was the core of Porto last season, the "Team Daily" thought that Maniche performed better. And Zhao Yaning is the best in the Champions League, and Zagorakis is the best in the European Cup, there is no controversy.

The selection of Terry and Carvalho on the back line is also a bit surprising. Nesta, Stam, Thuram, Cannavaro and others have lost the election, which surprised many people.

"The new era of football may be coming."

The media have all made such comments.

At this time, Liverpool also ushered in their twentieth round opponent, home to Southampton.

Southampton has played very poorly recently. They have not won six rounds, and they have not won an away game this season. Recently, their two main forwards Crouch and Beatty were injured again. Now they have only accumulated 14 points after the 19th round, and they are the favorites for relegation.

In this game, Liverpool also won without any suspense. In the first half of the game, Zhao Yaning's kick passed, allowing Milito to get the opportunity to head the goal, and one of his toppings opened the scoring for Liverpool. In the second half, Kewell wiped the penalty area on the left and a shot extended the score for Liverpool.

There was no suspense in a 2-0 game. The only dissatisfaction was that Kewell was injured in a collision in the 80th minute.

But this does not compromise the result of Liverpool's victory. After the game, people pay more attention to the points, but it is not the players on the court, but the spectators on the sidelines.

La Liga has entered the winter break at this time, Michael Owen also returned to England, he appeared in the stands and watched the game.

His appearance naturally caused a great commotion. Liverpool have been facing weakness for a long time, and they have only recently gotten better. Irving does not have a major position in Real Madrid now, and there are even rumors that Real Madrid will use Irving, Samuel and Woodgate in exchange for Eto'o. His appearance in the stands has naturally caused the British media to want to return. The association to Liverpool.

But Irving firmly denied this view, and once again firmly expressed his love for Real Madrid. Moreover, although Real Madrid are now 6 points behind Barcelona and have not won a game in the last five rounds, Irving still firmly stated that he believes the team can reverse and win the championship.

As for the Premier League champions... Irving also expressed his opinion.

"I think Liverpool is useless." Irving said bluntly. "The champion will definitely be Chelsea. Chelsea are so strong. I can't imagine them losing."

"This grandson came back to England, what did he do?" Zhao Yaning couldn't help but cursed when he saw such news in Liverpool's locker room.

He doesn't like scolding the street, but this matter is too much. Irving wanted to leave, the team also let go. It doesn't count if the team has been cheated, and now it's so shameless to speak, what does it mean?

Yes, Liverpool can't win the championship-but this is what the Liverpool team said in private in the locker room. Before the last moment, who would dare to say victory or defeat? How can such frustrating words be said nonsense in the middle of the season?

If you are a Chelsea star, it doesn't matter what you say. But since you still think of yourself as a Liverpool native, how can you say this?

"He came back to prepare for the wedding." Owen replied, "In June, he is going to get married. When he comes back this time, he is also here to prepare."

"He invited you?" Carragher asked.

"No, I heard what the media said. When he got married, he wanted to invite Qizu, Daluo, and Figo. The media asked if I had invited me."

Carragher cursed fiercely and was silent.

"It's too snobbery. I really hope that the Champions League can meet Real Madrid and can play with them." Riise also spoke from the side.

"Forget it, it's strange that Real Madrid can pass Juventus." Garcia also said.

"But, I really hope to embarrass him for a while."

"It's not impossible," Zhao Yaning said. "Didn't he say that he didn't know how Chelsea could lose? We should beat Chelsea once."

This sentence made the surrounding teammates look at each other.

"How is it possible? It's too difficult for you to say? The last time we met, did you forget when we were besieged?" Carragher was a little puzzled. "Since losing to Manchester City, they are With a record of nine wins and two draws, can we handle this level?"

"Don't forget that we had three wounded Harry, Stephen and Jerzy in the last game. But this time, we only have two wounded Harry and Milan. Our lineup is more orderly." Zhao Yaning retorted, "When the time comes They have a lot of wounded, maybe we really have a chance."

"We are trying to win this game." Benitez looked at the tactical board and spoke to Yesterdam without looking back.

"I think we should have won. Our current record is still a win at home." Yesterdam said.

"It has nothing to do with that, it doesn't matter what the record is, there will always be times when it is broken." Benitez shook his head, "I want to try to win, because we have a lot of opportunities to play against each other in the second half of the season. The game begins, we have to prepare for the next game."

"Yes, they have also reached the semi-finals in the League Cup, and their opponents are underdogs. Not surprisingly, they will be beaten in the finals. And in the FA Cup, we may also meet them. We really have to be careful with them."

"There is also the Champions League." Benitez said.

Yesterdam looked at him and said nothing. Indeed, there is also the Champions League, but when you meet with a national team, you have to fight in the quarter-finals. At that time, even if you lose, it will not be ashamed for Liverpool.

"I have been studying Chelsea's formation and style of play these days. I think there are still things they can use in their tactics." Benitez said.

"For example?" Yesterdam asked. "Beating them is almost the biggest problem in the Premier League. I would like to hear your solution."

"Their frontcourt defense is not strong enough-don't look at that look, I have the data there. Their frontcourt Drogba and Lampard are very capable of attacking the defense line, it is true, the backcourt Makelele's defensive ability is very good. Strong, it's not fake. But between the two people, there is a middle ground." Benitez scratched on the tactical board, "Smedin and Thiago are not enough to fill this space. "

This is not news. Lampard and Makelele lack a good connection player. Everyone knows this ~www.ltnovel.com~The entire Premier League is trying to take advantage of this.

"But Lampard can retreat and Makelele can push forward."

"Stephen keeps the impact, and he can press Makelele not too forward. If Lampard takes back, it would be even better. Robben Drogba Lampard is an offensive chain. If Lampa If Germany picks up, then this offensive chain is interrupted."

"In other words, what you mean is to let Stephen hit the frontcourt, and in the space he created, let Harvey dominate the offense." Yesterdam looked at it, "It's a good idea, but if so If you do, you need to equip Harvey with a contact point and protect the backcourt at the same time. It will be better if Harman is here, the effect will be greater."

Benitez nodded, "It's true. Then it's the issue of defense. Their attack was Robben and Duff. They relied on the impact of the two of them to launch an offensive. For them, I want to set three against them on the two wings. The best way to defend in the human triangle is the best way. Their tactical freedom is very small. If they can block their breakthroughs, they can basically block both of them."

"It's okay with Duff, but can it be against Robben? His threat is still quite big." Yesterdan asked rhetorically.

"Yes. He is not smart in playing football, and his tactical freedom is still small. Coupled with multiple consecutive victories, their tactics will be stereotyped and they will fall into a fixed mindset. It is not easy to get out.

"What about Drogba?"

"It's fine if you don't give him room to move. After all, tactical forwards are not shooters. Running distance and space are very important to them. Pressing tightly can give him a lot of pressure."

"So, in the end, how to deal with their defense?"

"This question-we have Zhao Yaning."
