Chapter 461: .461 This is the Premier League

Entering October, the unstoppable Liverpool will also be distracted from the European war.
In the second round of the Europa League group stage, Situ Yunbing led his team against visiting Udinese at home.
In this game, Situ Yunbing did not send a substitute lineup, but the main lineup continued to start the battle!
He has enough space for rotation, but at this stage he needs to grab time to run the team, so it is necessary to properly make the main lineup double matches a week.
Anfield was full of seats and the atmosphere was warm.
A banner was hung on the second floor of the grandstand with an image of Situ Yunbing's upper body and a line of words behind it.
"Lead Liverpool back to the throne!"
This is Situ Yunbing's rhetoric to the media before the England Derby, and is now regarded as the team's goal by Liverpool fans.
This will invisibly increase the confidence and momentum of the team. Whenever a player inadvertently sees this sentence in a game, they will know what Liverpool's ambition is!
Even though Udinese has good players like Pastoré and Di Natale, the Serie A team still showed some discomfort when fighting the fast-paced Liverpool at Anfield.
If the overall fast-paced play of the Premier League teams has an advantage over which top league in European football, then it is undoubtedly against Serie A!
Playing against Ligue 1 is a crushing of the overall strength of the lineup, and against Serie A, it is more dependent on rhythm.
Juventus and Naples are the most ambitious Serie A teams today, but this cannot conceal the overall decline of Serie A is not over yet!
Teams like Udinese do not say that facing Liverpool, teams of the same level may not be able to get rid of the disadvantaged situation in the away game, unless the Premier League team adopts a passing attitude towards the Europa League.
Don't doubt the indifference of Premier League teams to the Europa League.
Before the reform of the Europa League, the champion was not eligible for the Champions League next season, and the prize money of this tournament is also very low. It may have a strong appeal to teams in small leagues, but Premier League teams will focus more on the league in!
In the next two years, even the Premier League play-offs will be labeled as a "billion pound war". It is conceivable how much broadcast fees will be paid to the teams that survive in the Premier League. Premier League teams do not want to be distracted by the Europa League. Thus reducing their income in the Premier League.
A more intuitive phenomenon is that teams that can rank upstream in the Premier League are more expecting to qualify for the Champions League next season in the league rather than going all out in the Europa League.
And once some teams are in a bad situation in the Premier League, it is even less likely to invest too much in the Europa League.
The prize money of the group stage is almost the same, no more money.
Situ Yunbing's emphasis on the Europa League is mainly because this stage can train troops, and he has not even considered the issue of bonuses.
For Liverpool, which spends hundreds of millions of pounds every year, even winning the championship is just a drop in the bucket.
While adhering to their own style, they also fight more against opponents with different styles that have a certain strength basis. This is also a key part of Liverpool's growth.
Like the young opponents in the first round of the Europa League group stage, it is not good. It is not similar in style, but not strong enough. If Liverpool are the main lineup, they will directly crush the opponent and the experience will be pitiful.
Udinese was very aggressive at Anfield, but as Coutinho and Gareth Bale scored one after another, they honestly stepped back and tightened the fence, playing a typical Italian defensive counterattack. .
Different from the current mainstream counterattack or pursue speed, Serie A teams have always had a rich display of ingenuity in tactics, so even if it sounds clichéd defensive counterattack, they can also play some tricks, such as the control of the rhythm and the organization. The speed of the game changes, and then the unexpected attack of the player is inserted.
Casemiro performed a bit badly in such a situation, because it requires experience to judge the development of the situation and a better vision to have a more detailed understanding of the overall situation.
The old demon Di Natale helped Udinese get a goal before the end of the first half. It seemed that the game was still very suspenseful.
During the intermission, Situ Yunbing asked the team to be more delicate and patient in positional coordination.
In the league a few days ago, they used long-range bombing to kill Norwich, but today Situ Yunbing deliberately reduced the team’s long-range shots and asked the team to pass and cut through the ground as much as possible in a positional battle. To tear the opponent's defense.
Long shots are strong and strong. If you are really used to always using long shots to break the dense defense, this is not a good trend, it is easy to reduce the creativity and vitality of the team.
The cooperation of Coutinho and Eriksson in the midfield gradually allowed Liverpool to radiate vitality in the battle of positions, especially when the full-backs began to become active.
Liverpool used a combination of sides to tear the opponent's defense, and then delivered a penetrating threat through a subtle through.
Gerrard has been active on the offensive end since the new season, and Situ Yunbing's tactical requirements today have also made him a fish in water. He frequently plugs in in response to the passing of his teammates and then plugs in unexpected offensive points, making Udinese's defense impossible to defend. .
The Red Captain's performance of one pass and one shot in the second half won him a full house of applause and also helped Liverpool defeat Udinese 4:1 at home.
In the Europa League group stage, Situ Yunbing led his team to win two consecutive victories and the qualifying situation was very good.
In the new season, Liverpool has won 13 consecutive victories in all competitions, and Situ Yunbing's team exudes a sense of terror.
At the pre-match press conference before the weekend league, Stoke City coach Tony Pulis released his rhetoric and declared war on Liverpool!
"Liverpool has undergone some changes. They continue to win by relying on super stars, but in my opinion their midfielder is much weaker than before. We will focus on using this to stop Liverpool's winning streak!"
Pulis has his ambitions, and I don’t know if he’s playing against Liverpool’s heat. Anyway, Situ Yunbing ignored him and just responded before the game:
I also look forward to Stoke’s good performance for the fans. We are dedicated to a wonderful game. If Liverpool fail to win the game in the end, it must be our own problem. I think this is a good thing. It will let me discover the team's problems and improve the team's performance!"
Situ Yunbing seemed to be only interested in those famous coaches, and deliberately kept a distance from some coaches with mediocre coaching achievements, neither with them nor as enemies.
But Liverpool fans don't think so. They are very disgusted with Pulis' remarks, probably because they think the other party is a bit arrogant.
Anfield, the 7th round of the Premier League, Liverpool played at home against Stoke.
The Red Army and Liverpool are all the best, and the main team playing this league is also hoping to keep the league winning streak on the occasion of the FIFA game day in October.
Stoke City may be the most typical and traditional British team in the Premier League today.
In China, some fans call them "City in the Sky".
Because Stoke City is completely playing high, and at the same time paying great attention to physical confrontation, almost every position in the team is a tough guy type role, who can fight hard and run, and then use the hanging attack to the extreme!
The only problem for Liverpool against such a team is confrontation!
Tony Pulis enjoyed the contemptuous booing from Liverpool fans. He must pay for his words and deeds, which must be awakened before he speaks.
In fact, Tony Pulis also hopes to be aggressive, to see if Situ Yunbing will be caught.
Stoke City is really not absolutely sure to score all 3 points at Anfield, and it is pessimistic even to take away 1 point, but if Situ Yunbing orders Liverpool to go crazy, maybe Stoke City will have a chance. Take away 1 point, even 3 points by counterattack away!
Just as Ferguson has enough confidence and capital to mock Situ Yunbing's use of the media is what he left behind, Situ Yunbing's current status and height, if he is irritated by Tony Pulis's remarks, then he is more active The more I went back.
Liverpool played steadily at home, occupying the advantage on the field, but Stoke's players are constantly interrupting the game through rough fouls!
Before the game, Pulis is a strong player, and Stoke City players are also strong on the field!
Once annoyed the Liverpool players, maybe they can still get Liverpool players down.
Situ Yunbing frequently protested to the fourth official that the referee's penalty scale was loose, but this caused him to incur a warning from the referee.
The terrible picture occurred in the 39th minute of the game. Gareth Bale was shoveled to the ground by Liverpool old player Charlie Adam in the breakthrough. Although Gareth Bale stood up, he felt muscle discomfort. Can be forced to end.
Situ Yunbing replaced him with Coutinho.
The Reds fans at Anfield gave Charlie Adam the harshest boo.
Perhaps with the appearance of the wounded, the referee finally began to tighten the penalty scale.
Until the 60th minute of the second half, Stoke City had already carried as many as seven players with yellow cards, and Liverpool paid the price of Gareth Bale and Eriksson's injury.
Probably because there are many players with yellow cards, Stoke City players' actions in the confrontation have been reduced, which makes Liverpool's creativity in positional warfare start to play a threat, at least the game is much smoother.
After Henderson replaced Eriksson, he was full of fighting spirit, and he was able to gain an advantage in the confrontation. At the same time, he also performed well in connecting the midfield.
In the 67th minute of the game, Liverpool’s continuous attack was effective. Suarez’s shot from Coutinho’s pass in the penalty area was saved by goalkeeper Begovic. Gerrard was surrounded by opponents after he controlled the ball from outside the penalty area. Quickly knocking the ball across the front and right of the penalty area, Henderson, who strode in the shooting star, volleyed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!
Liverpool finally broke the deadlock at home!
Pulis looked disappointed.
Stoke's tactics did not work. They always wanted to anger Liverpool, but they failed.
Liverpool's performance became more stable after the goal, and Situ Yunbing used up the last substitution in the 70th minute of the game.
Sterling replaced Gerrard, and Liverpool began to shrink the front to fight back.
Keeping the victory is more important than taking the risk and expanding the victory!
Stoke's counterattack still created a certain amount of pressure on Liverpool, and Crouch's two shots almost penetrated Ter Stegen's ten fingers.
In the 83rd minute of the game, Sterling quickly inserted a long diagonal pass from Coutinho on the wing, and then ran all the way to the front of Stoke's penalty area. After hitting the wall with Suarez, he cut into the penalty area and went to the meeting. , His volley seems to be just a blind shot!
But the victory was the speed of the ball, the football went straight to the bottom left of the goal, and Begovic subconsciously saved and failed to touch the football!
Two players, Henderson and Sterling, came off the bench and scored a victory for Liverpool.
Although the game was won, Situ Yunbing was not happy. He still shook hands with Pulis after the game in a graceful manner.
Then he went to learn about Gareth Bale and Eriksson's injuries.
In an interview after the game, people will naturally pay attention to the injuries of these two players.
Situ Yunbing said in a natural tone: "This is the Premier League. How can it be the Premier League without a player injury?
The good news is that Bell only needs to recuperate for one week, and the bad news is that Erickson needs at least four weeks to recuperate. "
This is already a good result.
Especially next is FIFA game day.
