Vol 4 Chapter 509: Europe's strongest

Liverpool finally changed hands!
After the Red Devils Manchester United, the Centennial Red Army was finally acquired by a wealthy businessman from the United States, with a purchase price of up to 470 million pounds.
This piece of news was immediately in Europe, and even the world football has caused a huge response.
In the limelight that the Reds just defeated Barcelona 3-1 away, wealthy American merchants completed the acquisition, making everyone in Liverpool up and down, including the former boss David Morse, feel extremely excited.
The die-hard Liverpool fan said excitedly that Liverpool will usher in a brand new era!
The two new bosses also quickly presented two heavy meeting gifts, that is, they promised to increase the investment in the club's transfer, and will also build a new stadium that can accommodate 60,000 fans.
In an interview with the media, Rick Parry excitedly stated that this will allow Liverpool to reach a higher level in ticket revenue and business operations.
Gerrard and Benitez have also successively accepted interviews with the media, publicly expressing their welcome to the two American investors.
It can almost be said that these two investors are being welcomed throughout the city, and they have high hopes for them.
The Red Army is so eager to revive!
This team has not fallen for too long!
In the case where Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal have been injected with investors and their competitiveness has skyrocketed, Liverpool too needs a foreign fund to help the team improve its overall competitiveness.
From the former Dubai consortium to the current combination of Hicks and Gillette, it is the product of this desire.
...
Liverpool's management and team are indeed two different levels of operation.
However, after the management announced the success of the US investor acquisition, not only did the morale of the fans soar, but the team also followed the fighting spirit, because the promise of the new boss is that as long as the team is doing well, everyone will get a salary increase.
On the weekend, the team sat at Anfield Stadium and played against Sheffield United.
Hicks and Gillett made their first appearance at Anfield Stadium, and came to the locker room before the game to meet the players.
In addition to Gerrard, who had met before, Hicks and Gillett were the most impressive Yang Yang.
This is not just because Yang Yang is a Chinese.
"You can often see your news in American media magazines," Hicks boasted with a smile.
This tall Texan's first impression of Yang Yang can only be considered average, and looks very merchant.
Yangyang ’s hometown of Quanzhou is the most active area of ​​Chinese private capital. Almost all people do business. He does not have any prejudice against businessmen. It is just because of his character that he does not like people who are too exaggerated.
Hicks is clearly of this type.
But no matter what, Yang Yang still maintained a friendly attitude and thanked him for his respect for himself.
Hicks and Gillett were obviously also interested in making a good impression on Liverpool players when they first met, so he took the initiative to mention the game bonus, but from a lot of details, they do not understand football.
However, this does not matter.
Members of the Glazer family do not understand football, but can still manage Manchester United.
Everyone is full of confidence in the business plans of Hicks and Gillette, especially after they have decided to invest in the team, not only will Liverpool's player treatment be improved to a certain extent, but also in the transfer market will become more Competitive.
For example Mascherano.
This Argentine player with very complicated ownership, because of the high price before, could not transfer to Liverpool. He could only come to the team on loan, but after the arrival of the new boss, the team promised that as long as he performed well, he could He was immediately bought out, which made him more fighting spirit.
...
In the subsequent Premier League, Benitez rotated seven players in one go.
Because a week later, the team will face Manchester United at home, and after the Double Red, the team will usher in the second round of Barcelona, ​​so he needs to rotate.
And the opponent of this game Sheffield United is not strong.
Benitez discharged a four-for-two formation, with Crouch partnering veteran Robbie Fowler on the forward.
The result was only 20 minutes into the opening. Crouch was kicked by the opponent player when he was in a top fight, but Fowler calmly pushed the shot and set the record for Liverpool.
Subsequently, Crouch continued to bleed and was replaced by Kuyt.
Five minutes later, Gerrard assisted Robbie Fowler and went to the next city to help Liverpool lead by two goals.
After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, Liverpool took advantage of a corner kick and Hypia scored a goal.
Three minutes later, Mascherano passed the ball, Fowler crossed the ball, Gerrard shot and scored, four to zero!
Liverpool scored a victory at home!
This is a gift from the Liverpool players to the two new bosses!
...
Yang Yang did not appear in the game roster, Benitez arranged for him to take a rest, but he and Xavi Alonso and other players were sitting in the stands to watch this game.
His biggest concern is Mascherano, because this game the Argentine midfielder performed very well.
In this game, Gerrard and Mascherano partner in the midfield, the former is the main attack, the latter is the main defender, Mascherano performed almost perfectly, and did not give Sheffield United any chance.
The running range is very large, not to mention, there are also a few very beautiful interceptions, which make a great contribution on the defensive end, ensuring the stability of the team's rear defense. Player.
The team's fourth goal, Mascherano passed the ball to Fowler, and Fowler assisted Gerald to break the goal, this time the pass showed Mascherano's organizational ideas.
"He belongs to the typical Argentine midfielder, similar to Redondo." Xavi Alonso obviously praised his partner's debut.
Of course Yang Yang knew that Redondo, the former Real Madrid ’s main midfielder, was once the world ’s top midfielder, and he was also called with Guardiola, but after transferring to AC Milan, there has been no performance at all, mainly injury. influences.
For Redondo, Yang Yang's impression mainly came from the media and others. They all said that he was an elegant organizational midfielder, but Xavi Alonso obviously did not think so.
"They are a controlled late midfielder."
"Controlled?"
"Well, Redondo's defensive ability is actually very strong, and many small moves are also dirty, and there are even some rough moves, but at the same time have very good organization and pass ability."
Speaking of which, Xavi Alonso pointed to Mascherano in the stadium, "Mascherano is from the football school of the Solari family, his characteristics are very similar to Redondo, you see He will know. "
The Solari family is rich in stars. For example, Solari, who used to play for Real Madrid and Inter Milan, is their second generation. Their family runs a football school in Argentina and has trained many players. Mascherano is one of them.
Redondo married the daughter of the Solari family. Yang Yang vaguely remembered that he was the cousin or cousin of Solari.
"I think Benitez will like him." Yang Yang said softly.
Muhammad Sissoko is really good, but his feet are rough and lack of awareness. On the contrary, Mascherano has a very good defense, but at the same time has a very good technical skills and ability to pass.
Xavi Alonso nodded: "Remember the pair in Valencia?"
"Albelda and Baraja."
"Yes, this pair is hailed as the strongest double waist in Europe and Benitez's favorite."
Yang Yang heard this and thought about it, and immediately understood it.
In Valencia, Albelda and Baraja, in Liverpool, are n’t Xavi Alonso and Mascherano?
These two pairs of midfielders and double midfielders are definitely a combination of extremely strong control. Although slightly different, they are very balanced overall, and they play a huge role in both offense and defense.
And Yang Yang has the feeling that if Muhammad Sissoko is playing when playing Barcelona, ​​but this is Mascherano tonight, the first ball will not be lost at all, even Liverpool can create a bigger score .
Of course, this is just a feeling.
"It seems that you have to adapt to your new partner." Yang Yang laughed.
Xavi Alonso shrugged, "I don't need to run in with him."
Some players are born with the potential to attract each other and call each other even if they have never cooperated before.
…………
…………
Liverpool beat their opponents with another four goals!
After the game, the Red Army was unanimously affirmed by the outside world, especially the team's rotation of the seven main players, which was able to win a big victory, showing that the overall strength of the Red Army is still recognized.
Veteran Robbie Fowler staged the score twice, which made him a lot affirmed.
With the joining of Yang Yang and Kuyt, and players such as Crouch occupying the main position, Robbie Fowler did not get too many opportunities, but the veteran was not willing to substitute, so it is likely Leave the team this summer.
Gerrard was elected as the best player of the match. After the match with Mascherano in this game, he can do his best to invest in the offense. This is regarded as the key to Liverpool's four-ball victory.
All of them also called for the hope that Benitez could fully release Gerrard's attack power.
The new aid Mascherano's outstanding performance is to let everyone see the possibility of the team's stable midfielder, but if you want to replace Muhammad Sissoko, Mascherano still needs a little time and opportunity.
After all, Sissoko was quite eye-catching in the away game against Barcelona.
While Liverpool broke Sheffield United 4-0 at home, Manchester United were also frightened in the away game against Fulham. Although they were first scored by their opponents, Giggs and Cristiano Ronaldo ’s The goal helped Manchester United reverse Fulham 2-1.
Arsenal, with Diaby's goal, beat Aston Villa 1-0 away.
Chelsea beat Manchester City one-on-nine by virtue of Lampard's penalty.
In the 28th round, Manchester United led the Premier League with 66 points, Liverpool were three points behind, Chelsea were 60, and Arsenal ranked fourth with 55 points.
As for the Premier League shooter list, Yang Yang still has 20 goals, Drogba scored 17 goals, and Cristiano Ronaldo followed with 16 goals.
In this case, the second double red of the season will come again as scheduled.
