Chapter 674

Whenever Liverpool complete a replacement in the game, the strengthening of tactics is more clear and clear.

After Liverpool replaced Mahrez, they strengthened their tactical intention of defensive counterattack.

When Zenit in St. Petersburg came to attack, the impact of rhythm did bring great pressure to Liverpool, but stu Yunbing was pleased that van Dijk performed much better today. After all, the tactical level is also very pragmatic. It is unlikely that playing a tough battle in the Premier League will give opponents too much space.

Zenit's attack in St. Petersburg was higher and higher. He won't score, but he didn't create an absolute killing opportunity.

In the 87th minute of the game, when maheres sent a top oblique pass on the sidelines of the middle and back court, sane's rapid advance from the left to the inscribed track suddenly collapsed the Zenit defense in St. Petersburg!

At the critical moment, sane sent the ball out before being trapped in encirclement and suppression, creating a great opportunity for VALDI to go to the meeting alone.

Waldi calmly shot low in the penalty area and sent the ball into the far corner of the goal!

The fans of the home team in the stands of the stadium were immediately helpless and disappointed. Boas was numb on the sidelines!

Situ Yunbing just sat on the coach's seat and applauded. He was not very proud.

Zenit in St Petersburg will continue to strengthen the offensive after the kick-off, but Liverpool have further strengthened their defense.

When van Dijk cleared the opponent's Cross, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game.

Situ Yunbing stood up and walked to shake hands with boas after the game. The other side was more embarrassed than when he lost at Anfield.

Situ Yunbing did not take boas to heart, and even praised him in an interview after the game.

After the end of this round of the Champions League group match, Liverpool won all four games, not only qualified in advance to the top 16 of the Champions League, but also locked the top of the group two rounds in advance!

As for another qualifying place, that is, the other three teams are competing for it.

Back in England, Fleet Street began to build momentum for the top game at the weekend. Although levandovsky returned from injury, the media predicted that he would not enter the starting lineup.

And there are still doubts about van Dijk's state.

Before the war, situ Yunbing made very low-key remarks about the game.

"From the start of the new season, Chelsea is the best team in European football. After the introduction of reinforcements in the summer, Chelsea's upward momentum is very rapid and significant, while Liverpool is close to standing still, and we are still suffering from injuries.

In the upcoming top game, Chelsea will definitely want to win away. Liverpool is likely to lose at home unless we play our best form of the season. Anyway, our philosophy is to always pursue victory, no matter who the opponent is. "

Mourinho also talked about Liverpool's performance since the new season before the game. He said: "people's expectations for Liverpool are very high. It seems that Liverpool can't lose or even get a draw. A draw means losing points. Losing points is a sign of failure.

I think if Chelsea and Liverpool change their positions, the current direction of public opinion will not change, because people have witnessed the glory of Liverpool in the past two years, but they have a more tolerant attitude towards Chelsea, Manchester City and other teams.

This is our advantage. Even when we are ahead, the public opinion environment will be more harsh to Liverpool.

But this is also a gap. The points can't explain all the problems. Chelsea can't think that their strength is definitely ahead of Liverpool because they are ahead of Liverpool in points.

It's never easy to play at Anfield. If we want to prove that we are better than Liverpool and have more hope of winning the championship this season, we must play well at Anfield!

Because the championship is to prove that you are better than the other 19 teams!

The way to prove is to win!

I won't be too optimistic. We still have to be cautious about Liverpool. Even if the result is a draw, I will be very satisfied. "

Mourinho is also saving his character. He doesn't want to render the competition between Chelsea and Liverpool into a life and death atmosphere in the first half of the season!

However, the six-point battle between opponents competing for the championship can not be easily faced. It is an acceptable result for Chelsea to be a guest and retreat.

The game between Liverpool and Chelsea was the final battle. Before that, Arsenal lost to Swansea away, Manchester City also drew 2-2 with Queen's Park Rangers in the away game, and Manchester United won Crystal Palace with a goal at home.

After the competition of other strong teams, we can basically see that they missed the current round and narrowed the gap with the top two, so they are not very competitive.

On November 9, Anfield was full of people, and the packed stadium echoed the Liverpool team song before the game. The scene of Liverpool fans holding up their scarves and singing in unison was spectacular.

Situ Yunbing also changed into a warm coat. The temperature has dropped significantly recently. He was cheered by the whole audience when he came out.

He waited for Mourinho's arrival on the sidelines. When Mourinho entered, the two shook hands on the sidelines.

Mourinho said to situ Yunbing: "meet again. I thought you would make some provocative remarks to Chelsea before the game."

Situ Yunbing said frankly: "after thinking about it, I finally gave up. I think Liverpool's record against Chelsea last season has been enough to stimulate Chelsea's fighting will this season. Moreover, Liverpool's life is not easy. In the intensive schedule, let yourself make headlines frequently to attract the attention of public opinion. I'm afraid there will be complications. What about you? I thought you would officially declare war on Liverpool before this game! "

Mourinho shrugged and said: "I don't think I need to announce it. Look at Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United. The current situation is not how determined Chelsea is. Fleet Street has pushed Chelsea to the forefront of overturning the Liverpool Dynasty. Since we are really working hard for this, why bother to say it?"

Situ Yunbing nodded and said: "it's true. I've ignored the other three disappointing clubs. The complexity of leading the giants lies in that neither you nor I can give up the importance of the Champions League to the giants. There is no option to choose one from two. We must advance on both lines unless we really get out of one front, so we have to bite our teeth and stick to it, Who do you think I and you can carry to the end, or laugh to the end? "

Mourinho chuckled: "if Liverpool maintain the average frequency of one main player injured in half a month, then I think there is nothing to discuss. Liverpool will fall behind before the arrival of next year!"

Situ Yunbing smiled, then nodded with Mourinho and turned to the coach's command area.

When the first players of the two teams came on the pitch, there were deafening cheers at Anfield.

As the Premier League's top battle, this competition can be described as the focus of attention!

"Hello, everyone, welcome to the top game in the 11th round of the Premier League!

Defending champions Liverpool play blues Chelsea at home!

Chelsea now tops the table with 26 points. The record of 8 wins and 2 draws is indeed very strong. The defending champion Liverpool is 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, with 3 points less than Chelsea.

The direct dialogue between the two teams in this round is considered to be the key first battle on the road of winning the championship!

If Chelsea lose at Anfield, their morale will certainly be greatly affected. Although Liverpool can't surpass them through goal difference advantage, Chelsea will inevitably fear Liverpool because of defeat!

You know, Chelsea's losses against Liverpool in the past two years have been many major losses!

In the 2013 Europa League final, Chelsea lost to Liverpool and missed the championship.

In the Champions League knockout in 2014, Chelsea were eliminated by Liverpool.

Let's not mention the confrontation between the league and the local cup, because Liverpool have won the Premier League title in the past two seasons, which is enough to prove Liverpool's absolute strength in the local cup.

In the second year of Mourinho's return to Chelsea, after a season of hard work, Chelsea finally have the strength to declare war on Liverpool!

First of all, they have to fight the key first battle!

For Liverpool, the words of manager situ Yunbing before the game showed their current situation. Liverpool is standing still!

When levandovsky was injured, we can't further judge whether the Polish center can bring greater contribution and role to the team than Suarez when he was in the team.

Compared with sterling, who performed amazingly in Manchester City, sane on the Liverpool side remains to be seen, and Mahrez needs to further prove himself through hard work.

Liverpool's room for progress, or improvement itself, is very narrow, but if you stay where you are, it will be very dangerous, because when the recession comes, it will be difficult to stop this trend.

So I think situ Yunbing's implication is that Liverpool should find a new point to improve the team to consolidate the king's position in European football!

After all, sane's performance was somewhat lower than expected.

Well, let's look at the starting lineup of the two teams today.

Liverpool started 433 at home

Goalkeeper: telstegen.

Defenders: azpiliquetta, Van Dijk, kulibali, Robertson.

Midfield: Eriksson, Cantor, Camero.

Forwards: Mahrez, VALDI, Gareth bell.

Chelsea's first start is also 433. Ha ha, Mourinho is really confident, and his momentum is reflected in the formation.

Goalkeeper: kurtuva.

Defenders: Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Felipe Louis.

Midfield: Fabregas, matic, Ramirez.

Forwards: Oscar, Diego Costa, Azar.

Let's see if Chelsea can play well in the key first game of the championship, or Liverpool can use a more convincing performance to declare that their rule is still stable! "
