Vol 4 Chapter 632: Don't lose too early! [Blood vomiting first, ask monthly ticket]

"Barcelona!"
When the guests were drawn out of Barcelona during the live TV broadcast, the Manchester United player's rest area was suddenly in an uproar.
Immediately afterwards, everyone looked at Cristiano Ronaldo.
With the departure of Van Nistelrooy, Roy Keane and Alan Smith and other players who did not match up with the Portuguese, coupled with the outstanding performance of the past two seasons, Ronaldinho has gradually become a dominant player for Manchester United.
Especially this season, he has even become the team's undisputed number one star and banner figure.
As for the contest between him and Yang Yang, although there was some controversy in the Manchester United locker room, they all supported it unanimously.
The point of controversy is whether to be so high-profile.
However, now, when UEFA draws Barcelona for Liverpool, Manchester United players are all pleasantly surprised.
This is like a wonderful assist from UEFA to Manchester United.
"Too timely!" Nanihaha laughed. He is a Portuguese and naturally supports Ronaldinho. "At this time, let Liverpool touch Barcelona, ​​and the schedule is very unfavorable for Liverpool."
Everyone nodded their heads, and some even went to watch the schedule.
Starting from the UEFA Champions League, Liverpool's luck is not ideal, because they won Inter Milan in the round of 16.
Among the eight teams in the second group in the knockout round, Arsenal are the Premier League team, Liverpool is impossible to encounter, and the remaining seven teams, the strongest is Inter Milan.
In contrast to other teams in the Premier League, Chelsea is Olympiacos, Manchester United is Lyon, Arsenal of the second group met AC Milan, and Liverpool's signing of the first group is even worse than Arsenal of the second group.
But this situation has not changed in the quarter-finals. Liverpool actually encountered a powerful Barcelona, ​​which is definitely a dead end.
Two consecutive rounds of knockout have encountered the strongest team in Europe, and Liverpool's luck is really no one.
Manchester United drawn Rome, this team is not strong, was washed by Liverpool last season, the Red Devils won no suspense, Arsenal encountered Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga, Chelsea had better luck, encountered Fenerbahce of Turkey.
The luck of the Blues is really good. The two rounds of the group stage have drawn the weakest team. Whether it is Olympiacos or Fenerbahce, it is impossible to create problems for Chelsea unless the Blues are really bad. See through.
"Look, in the middle of the two rounds of the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Liverpool are going to play Arsenal in the 33rd round of the Premier League." Carrick read the league schedule, and the result brought another great news.
When everyone in the Manchester United locker room heard it, he was even more excited.
"First touch Inter Milan, then Barcelona, ​​and then Arsenal. Has Liverpool been suffering from bad luck recently?"
"Who said it was not? Who can bear it if they play like this in a row?"
"Look for me to estimate that Liverpool are a little careless and are likely to fall behind during this period."
"Yang Yang must now regret to accept Cristiano's challenge."
"This is simply the Devil's schedule. Anyone who encounters such a schedule will have a big head."
"Don't forget, Liverpool's bench thickness is not strong."
"However, Barcelona's recent state is not very good, Rijkaard's team may not be able to beat Liverpool."
"The thin and dead camels are bigger than horses. Even if Barcelona are in poor shape, they are the top teams in Europe, and they have lost the La Liga. They will definitely concentrate all their energy to play in the Champions League.
"Yeah, this kind of continuous playing of strong teams is a great test for the team."
"From the current situation, we are very likely to advance with Chelsea and Arsenal. If Liverpool can also advance, then this season's Champions League semi-finals will be wrapped up by the Premier League team."
...
In the locker room, you teammates are talking about me.
Cristiano Ronaldo said nothing at all, but this does not mean that he has no idea in his heart.
Liverpool won the next draw, he was still very happy, because this represented an appointment between him and Yang Yang, the possibility of winning will increase greatly, because Yang Yang will have to be distracted by the Champions League game, And it will consume more.
On the other hand, Manchester United, playing Rome can be described as ten in a row.
And there is a feeling in his heart, this time is a rare opportunity to beat Yang Yang.
The best result was Liverpool's loss to Barcelona. Yang Yang was hit hard, losing the league title and the shooter king one after another. Ronaldinho himself succeeded in counterattack and won the first prize.
Out of the understanding of Yang Yang in the past few years, Xiao Luo feels that this possibility is not very high.
Judging from the situation this season, Liverpool's contention for the league title is obviously more careful, because they have won two UEFA Champions League in the past three years, but have not been involved in the league championship for nearly two decades, the league has come to them Said, more urgent.
Therefore, even if the Champions League performance is not ideal, Liverpool will also do their best to keep the league.
Besides, Yang Yangke has never been a vulnerable person.
But no matter what, Xiao Luo feels that adding some difficulties to Yang Yang is also a good thing.
"You must not lose this matchup too early, otherwise it will be boring." Little Luo looked at the window and murmured.

Liverpool hit Barcelona!
This sign shocked the entire European football, and even fans around the world.
There are even some conspiracy theorists who believe that UEFA is deliberately creating problems for Liverpool and wants to prevent the Red Army from defending.
Everyone knows that Liverpool are the strongest team in European football this season, and also the best at playing cups. They have won two Champions Leagues in the past three years. If they defend this season successfully, it will create the history since the Champions League restructuring.
Therefore, UEFA is clearly not willing to see Liverpool defending, so it deliberately created problems for Liverpool in the draw.
Otherwise, how to explain the successive encounters with such top teams as Inter Milan and Barcelona?
As soon as the lottery results came out, combined with the Premier League, everyone realized the difficulties of Liverpool.
Before playing Barcelona, ​​Liverpool will play a Merseyside Derby against Everton at home, then play Arsenal away, and then against Blackburn at home. All three games are tough.
The two rounds against Barcelona happened to be between these three tough battles.
The Times said during the analysis that these five games will likely change Liverpool's Premier League and Champions League trends this season.
With the announcement of the schedule, major media and gaming companies have lowered their optimism about Liverpool.
William Hill quickly raised Manchester United's winning odds to Liverpool, which shows that after the schedule is announced, many people are worried about Liverpool's schedule.
In the battle between Yang Yang and Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese's odds, the Portuguese odds also overtake Yang Yang in just one day, which also shows that more fans are optimistic about the Portuguese.
It is undoubtedly the draw of the Champions League quarter-finals that has caused all parties to change their views.
If Liverpool draw Fenerbahce, or even Rome, it is estimated that the situation has completely changed.
…………

The Liverpool team also reflected greatly on the draw.
Benitez and the coaching staff held a meeting for the first time. The club's general manager Rick Parry, the team's deputy captain Gerrard and Carragher, and the team's top star Yang Yang, were invited to attend the meeting.
The content of the meeting is not surprising, mainly to discuss how the team will deal with the next Devil schedule, and whether there is a trade-off between the two fronts, because in the current situation in Liverpool, double-line combat is very difficult.
Rick Parry means that the team should first ensure the league.
"As you said, we only have one front, we have enough confidence, and in the past two decades, our fans’ desire for the league championship has become stronger and stronger, and it is now the best impact league champion in two decades. Opportunities, we have no reason to give up. "
Even from the standpoint of the club ’s interests, the Premier League winning prize is also not lost to the Champions League winning prize, not to mention that the Champions League may not be able to win the championship.
Gerrard believes that Liverpool has never had a precedent of unpretentiousness. Now that it is too early to give up, there may not be a chance for two-line combat. However, he also expressed his final position. There are still two points in the league. Shock the league champion.
Yang Yang agrees with Gerrard's opinion.
"I have watched the schedule. We play Barcelona first and then away. I think we should try to play a home first. Recently Barcelona is not in a good state. The team is very chaotic. We have a chance."
Benitez nodded. If he concentrates on playing the cup, he is confident of killing Barcelona.
"The trouble now is that even if we enter the semi-finals, we will meet the winners of Manchester United and Rome, which is estimated to be Manchester United." Yesterdam reminded.
If it is Chelsea and Arsenal, Liverpool is not afraid at all, but Manchester United is different. Ferguson ’s team is really very strong in defensive ability. Vidic and Ferdinand ’s double central defenders are in the golden period of their careers. Rooney and Tevez are the kind of players with excellent anti-robbing oppression ...
In a word, Liverpool have a real headache playing Manchester United.
"In any case, one game after another, if we can win Barcelona at home and lay the edge, it will not be difficult to play away, will we?" Yang Yang asked.
Gerrard and Carragher have also expressed their solidarity with Yang Yang, thinking that they should continue to insist.
This season has now reached, whether it is to give up the Champions League or to give up the league, it is very uncomfortable.
Rick Parry opened his mouth and stopped talking.
Obviously, he was a bit worried.
It is of course the best to continue to fight in two lines, if you can go hand in hand, even if you ca n’t, take a step back, it is also very good to keep the league. It is terrible that in the end, it is the Champions League and the league that are lost.
Yang Yang, Gerald and others are younger, more fighting spirit, more adventurous, but Rick Parry thinks more about steadily passing this season.
