Everton is a team with a long history, having been founded before arch-rivals Liverpool. They are a force to be reckoned with in the Premier League, finishing sixth last season and qualifying for Europe. This season, Everton have a solid record in the Premier League, temporarily sitting fourth, and are a Premier League powerhouse.

In the Carabao Cup, they reached the semi-finals with a 2-1 away win over West Ham United, and the gap in quality between Wolves and them was stark.

However, after Wolves' back-to-back victories over Liverpool and Chelsea, the media is no longer one-sided that Wolves are unlikely to win against West Ham United.

More media cheered for Wolves, with the Daily Mirror saying: The League Cup is a hotbed of upsets, and many big teams have been bloodied by lower league teams in this competition.

Come on for Wolves, win at home to West Ham United and take the initiative to qualify, so you could set a record – the second League One side to reach the Carabao Cup final since the English league was restructured in 1992!

Compared to last season's miraculous relegation, and back-to-back victories over Liverpool and Chelsea, this is definitely a feat!

The last League One side reached the Carabao Cup final was in 1999-2000, when Tranmere reached the final but were beaten by Leicester City. It's been eight years since this miraculous achievement.

Wolves won at home in the last round and the Daily Mirror published an article arguing that Ferguson would regret the remarks, but the Guardian published a-for-tat article. This pushed the Daily Mirror directly to the side of Wolves, so it was very rare for them to cheer for Wolves before the game.

The Times said: After back-to-back victories over Liverpool and Chelsea, Wolves have gained valuable experience against Premier League sides. As long as they can drag the game into League One again, then it is quite possible that they will win at home and take the lead!

Sky Sports said: "Wolves have given people so many surprises this season and have become the most recognisable team in League One due to the feud between King and Alex Ferguson, even more than many Championship teams. ”

"Carabao Cup semi-finals, for Wolves, will they continue their magical journey, or will they lose their magical colors?"

"We believe that the 'mad wolf tactics' that have already shone will continue to shine their light. And a feud between Wang and Ferguson has made Wang a familiar name in English football, and we believe that this talented young player will not disappoint! ”

"The Carabao Cup is a hotbed of upsets, Wolves have already beaten Liverpool and Chelsea, who says they can't knock out Everton and reach the final?"

……

Everton was not satisfied with the fact that many media outlets were optimistic about Wolves and gave them encouragement. In an interview with the media, coach Moyse said sourly: "Now in the eyes of the English media, there is only Wolves, only crazy wolf tactics, only that young player, I think this atmosphere is very abnormal." ”

'We're going to keep the tradition going, the Carabao Cup final going on between the Premier League teams and we're going to beat Wolves at home!'

Everton's main goalkeeper said in an interview: "I will keep a clean sheet against Wolves, who have been praised by the media after the wins over Liverpool and Chelsea. But people overlook the fact that Liverpool were at rock bottom when they played Wolves.

Chelsea, on the other hand, had terrible luck against Wolves and were not well prepared for the game, not even wearing spikes to fight in the rain.

We'll learn from Chelsea's failures and be fully prepared because Wolves are not our opponents! ”

Mikel Arteta, the heart of midfield, said: "I wonder how a midfielder can be at the top of the scorers' charts. This shows that the youngster is more of a striker than a purely midfielder. I'll show him in the game how a midfielder should play! ”

"The miracle will not last, the so-called winning streak will come to an abrupt end!"

Wolves didn't show such sharp rhetoric before their match against Liverpool and Chelsea, but Everton were different, and they were going to provoke a war of words.

Wang Rui, who has been "loosened" by Morgan, said-for-tat in an interview with the Daily Mail before the game: "We are indeed a League One team, and we do have a gap in strength with Everton, but we never lack the confidence and determination to win!" ”

"In the pre-season training camps, Ince often told us to stand in the final of the cup competition. Now that we're just one step away from the Carabao Cup final, there's no reason for us to stop! ”

'Some people say I don't look like a midfielder, that's because he didn't watch me. He told me that he wanted me to see how the midfielders should play. Suffice it to say that neither Steven Gerrard nor Frank Lampard said anything like that before we played Liverpool and Chelsea, did he think he was better than those two? ”

Wang Rui showed his sharp words in front of the media for the first time, because the old man Thomson once told him that he should be arrogant at the age of twenty on the night he left this world.

In addition, Wang Rui really doesn't think that the person named Arteta is qualified to teach him a lesson.

The war of words between the two sides before the game made the first leg of this semi-final full of gunpowder.

……

Time is fast approaching, and the League Cup semi-finals are just around the corner. At 2pm on January 8, Everton arrived in Wolverhampton. After a short break at the hotel, they came to Molinox Stadium to acclimatize.

Coming early and getting used to the pitch is enough to show how seriously Everton take this game. They also behaved in a way that was different from the dismissive rhetoric, and they did so to walk away with a win at Wolves' home stadium.

On January 9, the day of the Carabao Cup semi-finals, the match is scheduled for 3pm. At 10 a.m., the coaches and captains of both sides attended the pre-match press conference.

Everton were the first to come on and boss Moyse said: "I came to Wolverhampton to take away a win. Yesterday afternoon we got used to the pitch and the players felt good. ”

A reporter asked, "Will you send someone to defend the king?" ”

Moyse shook his head and said, "No, I won't send someone to defend him." Since he is not favored by Ferguson, I don't think I need to send someone to keep an eye on him. ”

The reporters on the field were slightly surprised, how did this go to Ferguson?

Could it be that this is using this opportunity to show his support for Ferguson?

This is...... Spanning Ferguson's ass...... However, this ...... Does that make sense?

One reporter asked, "What do you think of the feud between Wang and Ferguson?" ”

Moyse said with a smile: "I think the media has held the king in high esteem, and Ferguson rarely looks away. The grievances between them, as an outsider, I don't comment on them. ”

The reporters in the audience despise the Everton manager in their hearts, you are not good at commenting? Haven't you already commented.

Moïse's words finally reached Ferguson's ears, and Sir Alex Ferguson became so fond of the Everton boss that he put him in the position of Red Devils manager when he left the United manager's position.

……

The away team left the field, the home team played, and it was very rare that Ince actually appeared at the press conference with Wang Rui!

He didn't lead the captain Oaks, he brought Wang Rui!

What does this mean?

It shows that the Wolves are beginning to prepare to use this shareholder wind to push Wang Rui to the media and to reporters!

Last night, when Morgan asked Ince to let Wang Rui participate in the pre-match press conference, Ince was slightly surprised. The Wolves boss smiled and said: "It's time to push him out, Wolves need stars. In addition, last season's life-and-death battle, that crucial penalty, didn't you just let him take the penalty. ”

"At that time, weren't you just making stars? Now that he's shown to be a star, it's time to push him to the fore! ”

Ince shook his head helplessly, did not speak, and nodded in agreement.

I don't know what you're thinking, you just want Wang to break with Ferguson completely, and then let Wang stay in the Wolves team.

Ince has mixed feelings about the grudge between Wang Rui and Ferguson, one is his former coach, and the other is a newcomer he has dug up by himself. In the end, after struggling, he chose to support Wang Rui, after all, the day of leaving Manchester United was far away, and he didn't want to destroy the talent he had unearthed with his own hands.

Last night, Morgan personally called Wang Rui and told him to get ready for this morning's pre-match press conference. And told him that at the press conference, he can say whatever he wants, and don't have any concerns.

Wang Rui knows the meaning behind Morgan's words, and he thinks he should also make his attitude clear in front of the media. He's going to say what he said to his sister!
