In England, Sky TV is responsible for the broadcast rights of the Premier League, but the highlights are handled by the BBC, and even in addition to live matches, many fans do not like to watch Sky TV programs, especially some old fans, because they are used to watching some football programs from the BBC.

In Liverpool, for example, many people choose to watch Match Day, a TV show co-hosted by Liverpool legends Alan Hansen and Lineker, which usually shows highlights and some analysis and commentary on the game.

Immediately after a customary start, they went on a round-up and analysis of the matches from the 31st round of the Premier League that had just passed.

"The best team of the round was undoubtedly Arsenal, who beat Norwich 4-1 at home, with Thierry Henry scoring a hat-trick, and the most depressed team in this round was definitely Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, who drew 0-0 at home to Blackburn."

"Liverpool and Chelsea, who were drawn together by UEFA, are obviously staying for the Champions League in this round of games, Chelsea played a day earlier, beating Southampton 3:1 away, and Liverpool beat Bolton 1:0 at home with Carrick's goal."

After Lineker's analysis, Alan Hansen added with a smile: "The ones who are really qualified to win the title are Chelsea and Liverpool now, so even if these two teams have to fight on multiple fronts, neither of them will give up, because every game can be related to a title." ”

"Yes, that's right!" Lineker nodded, "Alain, I've always had a question, as the captain of Liverpool in the past, what do you think of this Liverpool?" ”

"What do you think?" Alan Hansen thought for a moment, "I just went to Liverpool a few days ago, met some old friends, and went to Sutton's pub, unfortunately, I didn't see Yang Cheng, but I learned more or less from the mouths of some of my old friends, Dalglish, Ian Rush and others. ”

"First of all, I agree with some views from the outside world, this is a Liverpool team with unlimited potential, and the strength is also very strong, in the past two seasons, they have also played a very eye-catching football in the Premier League, but they are far from the best, but all along, Yang Cheng has used his technical and tactical ability to cover up Liverpool's shortcomings in some aspects."

"For example?" Lineker asked.

"For example, this team is too young and inexperienced." Alan Hansen said.

Lineker smiled slightly, "But everyone knows that Yang Cheng's emphasis on the overall style of play minimizes individual flaws. ”

"It was in the league, but in the Champions League, the problem is not so simple, we can take a look, the current Liverpool team except for Larsson, Davies, no one has the Champions League top eight, or even further experience, and even many of them are participating in the Champions League for the first time."

'In the group stage, it's not very obvious, but in the knockout rounds, it's a big problem, at the Camp Nou, Liverpool played well, but at Anfield they were distracted by Barcelona's pressing and they lacked the experience to deal with it.

"So, between Liverpool and Chelsea, you don't fancy Liverpool?" Lineker was a little strange.

Alan Hansen is a Liverpool legend, and if he doesn't support Liverpool, what will Reds fans do with him?

'No, I'm definitely rooting for Liverpool, but I think there's a lot of problems that Liverpool have to overcome if they want to get past Chelsea, doesn't the Daily Telegraph say? Liverpool are like an insurmountable mountain in front of Liverpool, but I think Liverpool's best chance of winning is their manager. ”

"The king of the cups?" Lineker nodded, "Yang Cheng is indeed very good at playing cup games, it's strange, why is this happening?" ”

"Because he has a strong targeted tactics, he has done a very meticulous job of preparing for the game." After a pause, Alan Hansen smiled: "Dalglish told me that the two most powerful tactical analysts on Liverpool's coaching staff are Yang Cheng, who is good at attacking, and Benitez, who is good at defending and pressing. ”,

"That chubby, that Spaniard who always stands next to Yang Cheng?" Lineker asked with a smile.

'It's him, the two have worked together for many years and have a very good understanding, so they can always play well in the cups, but the league is more about the overall quality of the team, which is why Liverpool have fallen behind Chelsea so far.

"Blues, it's too strong!" Lineker said with a smile.

"But this kind of strength doesn't have such a clear advantage in the knockout round." Alan Hansen replied: "One of Liverpool's biggest problems right now is that Essien has enough potential in midfield because of the void left by Davies' injury, but he has not yet replaced Davies. ”

After a pause, Alan Hansen said worriedly: "I think Barcelona's tactics at Anfield are likely to bring some wake-up call to Chelsea, with Mourinho's chips, it is entirely possible for them to play better than Barcelona, and how to crack this kind of full-court pressing, this should be a problem that Yang Cheng has to overcome next." ”

"I think Liverpool have another concern, which is Gerrard's position!" Lineker picked up the topic with a smile.

Just after Chelsea's defeat of the Saints, Jose Mourinho highlighted one name in his post-match press conference when confronted with a reporter's mention of the summer signings, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard.

'Mourinho said that Gerrard's most suitable position should be in the shadow striker, which was also the position where he performed best last season and scored the most goals, but now Yang Cheng has pulled his position back to create space for the two wings to cut inside and keep him away from the goal, I think the Portuguese is right.

Alan Hansen nodded, but shook his head again, "I agree with one thing, Gerrard played very well in the position of the striker and played the best form of his career, but I always said that this is the result of the overall tactics, with the chances created by Liverpool, even if it is not Gerrard on the striker, it is someone else, and the goals are still spilling." ”

"As for Gerrard's position, I noticed what Yang Cheng once said, he said that Gerrard's biggest role on the pitch is not to score goals, but to make us feel a stability because of his presence, so many people say that Gerrard has scored fewer goals this season, but I will answer that his role is greater."

"It's kind of like Nedved!" Lineker said.

"It's very similar, but the position and the tactical style are different."

"So, what about Chelsea?"

Alan Hansen chuckled and asked, "Does this team still need to be judged?" A near-perfect team, what should we say? I think the only thing Chelsea have to do is that Gudjohnsen isn't one of the best in Europe in their centre-forward position, and they even have some of Europe's best players on the bench. ”

Lineker laughed, "Relatively speaking, Chelsea's players are more experienced and more mature, and the overall ability of the Blues is also very good, so I think the confrontation between these two teams is really interesting. ”

"Especially considering that Liverpool and Chelsea will face off four games over the next two weeks, and this will undoubtedly be a very exciting matchup, but will Chelsea's ruble army be stronger? Or is Liverpool's Young Guard better? Alan Hansen looked expectant.

As a Liverpool celebrity, the strong rise of the Reds in the past two seasons not only makes fans feel excited, but even their celebrities feel excited, especially considering the series of changes that Yang Cheng has brought to Liverpool.

"Neither Allan nor I are professional managers, but maybe we can find some answers to the question of 'set sail' for all of you in the Champions League, especially those who have always bought lottery tickets."

The first law, the red law, appeared on the TV screen, with an accuracy rate of 50%.

"Of the 49 teams that have won the Champions League, 28 have worn red shirts.

The second law, the law of non-capital, has an accuracy rate of 50%.

"With the exception of Real Madrid, which has won the trophy nine times, Amsterdam (four times) and Lisbon (two times), no other team in the capital has won the Champions League so far." ,

The third law, G14, has an accuracy rate of 70%.

"The G14 giants have won 80% of the 49 titles, especially since 1991 when Red Star Belgrade defeated Marseille to win the title, only Kaiserslautern in 1999 has performed a miracle and won the Champions League once, and the rest are almost all in the pocket of the G14, coincidentally, it is now Liverpool's manager Yang Cheng who has helped Kaiserslautern create a miracle."

After talking about these three laws, Lineker laughed, "Maybe after reading these three laws, we will all be able to analyze some of the situations in the Champions League knockout rounds, especially the much-anticipated battle between Chelsea and Liverpool, I think, if I want to buy a lottery ticket, I will support Liverpool, although I think Chelsea is stronger." ”

…………

…………

Chelsea's squad is very strong, which Yang Cheng has always known, although there is less Drogba and Robben, but there are more Robinho and Quaresma, Crespo and Veron stay, the current Chelsea can be said to be stronger in overall strength than the same period in the previous life.

But like the Chelsea side in Yang Cheng's previous life, the strongest thing about this current Chelsea is their midfield.

In other words, their impregnable defense is the most troublesome thing.

Chelsea have conceded 15 goals so far this season in the Premier League, compared to Liverpool's 24, and both teams are second to none in Europe in defence but Chelsea are undoubtedly better than Liverpool.

Yang Cheng always believes that no matter how good the team is, there will be loopholes, or maybe you will do your best to cover up the loopholes, but I will use the offense to do everything possible to help you create loopholes.

To help the opponent create holes, it is necessary to pull the opponent's defense, and to do this, you need to play on the flanks and play the width of the attack, so the importance of the two wings is reflected.

After going around and around, Yang Cheng still returned to the side.

Throughout the teams he has coached, they usually have wide players and a long ball midfielder, just to play wide.

Thinking of this, Yang Cheng couldn't help but look at the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the office, where a player was facing a wall on the side of the training ground, practicing long-distance passing and stopping the ball.

He kicked the ball out hard every time to see if it hit a certain part of the wall as he wanted, and when it bounced back, he wanted to be able to stop the ball with a steady kick and kick it out again, and so on.

It's interesting to watch this kind of training because it's really nice to see this kind of long-range passing, but watching Carrick train is especially different because he's able to shoot with his left and right feet in a row.

Looking at today's football, there are very few players who can play an accurate long pass of about 40 meters with their left and right feet at the same time.

But even more so, he is one of the few players who made Yang Cheng feel that he had lost his eyes at the beginning.

All along, Yang Cheng has relied on the memory of his previous life and his understanding of football, and there have been almost no big mistakes in selecting players, and he has always been able to find the most suitable and needed players for his team.

At the beginning, in the position of organizer, Yang Cheng preferred Xavi Alonso, but he couldn't get the Spaniard, so he could only buy Carrick, but his idea at the time was to use it so-so first, but what he didn't expect was that Carrick's performance surprised him.

Wide vision, good sense of position, excellent footwork, good defensive ability, balanced left and right feet, these are his advantages, and he is most suspected by Yang Cheng of the two major shortcomings, one is to respond, after more than a year, he has improved a lot, the other is to get rid of the ball, and is also overcoming.

Why did Yang Cheng let Gerrard pull back more?

A big reason is that Carrick's lack of ability to get away from the ball makes it necessary for him to have enough points around him, after all, it is easier to pass the ball than to get rid of himself, and he is not prone to making mistakes.

There used to be a Davies, but the Dutch Boars have been injured frequently this season, and the likes of Essien, Aarau Diarra and Hamann have not been able to show up in time to help him transition the ball and help him clear the ball when Carrick is being targeted, so Yang Cheng brought Gerardra back. ,

Gerrard's biggest role as a player is to go straight up and down, to be able to dribble forward, to insert the attack in the back row, and also to retreat to participate in the defense, and he will help Carrick transition to clear, which is equivalent to indirectly enriching Liverpool's midfield routine, and Gerrard's passing, especially the diagonal pass from the middle to the two wings, is very set.

With the combination of Steven Gerrard and Michael Carrick, Liverpool's midfield has Carrick's wide passing and pushing forward, as well as Gerrard's ability to plug in and out with the ball, and what is lacking is a midfield defender with excellent coverage and complement awareness.

There are quite a few such defenders for Liverpool, with Davies being the best candidate, Essien, Hamann and even Aarau Diarra all up to the task.

If one of Carrick and Gerrard is absent, then Yang Cheng will let Arshavin and Murphy play in the middle, and Liverpool's midfield configuration and responsibility distribution will change again.

In Yang Cheng's view, the current Liverpool lineup is basically the same, from the staffing to the integration of technical characteristics, it has been run in very well, what is needed is the accumulation of experience and the progress of players, which is why he will say that what Liverpool needs is a big explosion after the accumulation of hòu.

For some time now, he has been looking at how to improve Liverpool's attacking approach in midfield, and he has always wanted to make the most of the technical characteristics of each player and make the most of them, such as Steven Gerrard's diagonal pass, such as the link between the left and right wingers.

The 433 set of tactics is different from previous tactics, especially the center retreat advocated by Yang Cheng, which makes the connection between the left and right wingers very important, and can even be said to be critical.

The more Liverpool have attack, the harder it will be for Chelsea to defend.

There is no doubt that these games will be high-intensity confrontations, and they will also be direct battles between Liverpool's attack and Chelsea's defense.

The manager can only set up his tactics according to the cards he has at hand, and the key is to see how much the players can play on the pitch, how well they are in shape, how committed they are, and whether they can complete the tactical requirements.

Four games against Chelsea, this will undoubtedly be a battle that will determine Liverpool's results this season.

It's a battle, not a war!

Just when Yang Cheng was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching Carrick take advantage of the rest of the training and everyone resting, practicing passing and stopping the ball on the training ground alone, the latest Weibo update came to the computer.

"The latest news, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has just given an interview to reporters, announcing in a high-profile manner that Chelsea will win Liverpool 2-0 at Anfield to avenge the 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge." Here's the latest news from The Times.

After Yang Cheng finished reading this piece of news, he smiled and immediately updated it on Weibo.

'Mourinho said that Liverpool's away win over Chelsea was a coincidence, and I'm sure there are a lot of fans who think that's right, so in order to come up with enough evidence that Liverpool is better than Chelsea, I decided that we would beat Chelsea four more times this season.

'It's very difficult because Chelsea are a very united, very strong team and it's hard to beat them several times in a row, but because it's difficult, so I think it's a very interesting challenge.

'We have enough foundation, that's the basis of everything we've achieved and I want all the Liverpool players to come together, stick together and play with our momentum so that Mourinho can no longer find any excuse to doubt our quality.'

"In my opinion, we are more qualified than anyone, any team, to reach the semi-finals and get a ticket to Istanbul!"

"If the former Liverpool was a ruined ruin, then since last season's Premier League title, we have been on a path of reconstruction, and we will go into Istanbul with a heart of revenge, return to the top of Europe, and reclaim everything that should have been ours!"
