'We've got the line-up for both sides.'

"Liverpool, who played at home, did not change the tactical formation during the warm-up game, and still used 433 as the tactic, from which it is not difficult to see that Yang Cheng decided to make a big change to Liverpool's tactics, and once again engraved his most obvious Caesar mark on this team."

"The goalkeeper is Dudek last season, the backline is Reese, Hyypia, Carragher and Finnam, and the midfield three are Davies, Hamann and Gerrard.

"Judging from the warm-up match, Yang Cheng is very stubborn about the arrangement of the trident, arranging the right-footed Xiao Xiao Luo on the left side, and the left-footed Robben on the right side, which is very strange, and the performance is also not ideal, now it depends on whether he can completely activate these two wings after two weeks of closed training."

"Ranieri's squad is also playing as hard as it can be, and it can be seen that although he repeatedly said before the game that Chelsea is not running in enough, he still chose the strongest squad to win Liverpool away."

'The goalkeeper is Italian Cudicini, the backline is Bridge, Terry, Desailly and Barbayaro, the midfield is Makelele behind, Lampard and Veron are lined up, Duff and Mutu occupy the two wings respectively, and Crespo plays as a lone striker.

"As everyone mentioned before the game, from the warm-up game, Liverpool's most outstanding set of offensive routines is to insert in the back row of the middle, Gerrard and Davies have an excellent long-range shot, especially Gerrard, Yang Cheng gave him the power to insert into the penalty area and fire."

"Drogba in front of him is very physical, fast, and has excellent sense of coordination, which makes all the defenders who mark him feel a headache, so Ranieri does not dare to be careless, and he is hoarded in the middle, obviously to guard against Liverpool's attack in the middle."

With the introduction of the on-site commentator, the players from both sides slowly walked out of the player tunnel and walked into the stadium one after another under the leadership of referee Durkin.

It was Yang Cheng's Premier League debut, and as before, he followed the team out of the players' tunnel.

As soon as he appeared, he was immediately greeted with overwhelming cheers from the entire Anfield stadium, and all the KOPs did not hesitate to give the hottest manager in football the loudest applause, "Caesar! Caesar!! The shouts swept through the Anfield stadium and made everyone, including all the people in front of the television, feel their welcome to the manager.

"That's Caesar's charm! He is the only one who can make the Reds fans so crazy! ”

"We could even say that he didn't need to play to conquer all the Reds fans, he was Caesar, an incredible manager!"

"Is there any manager in the history of the Premier League who has received so much cheers and applause before the first game and before the premiere, and has been embraced and supported by so many fans?"

The on-site commentator couldn't help but smile and praise when he saw that the KOPs at the scene loved Yang Cheng so much.

Yang Cheng smiled and waved to the KOPs in the stands, and today he put on a simple casual T-shirt and looked casual.

Walking to the away team's coach's box, Yang Cheng and Ranieri shook hands and hugged, and the two managers talked on the sidelines for a while, and then saw Yang Cheng pat Ranieri on the shoulder and turned back to the front of his home team's coach's box.

After talking with his assistants for a while, Yang Cheng walked out and stood still outside before the game was about to start.

This is also the hallmark of Yang Cheng, who almost never directs the game from the coach's seat.

…………

…………

As Durkin's whistle blew and the Reds fans cheered, Liverpool's front trident was seen rushing forward, while Chelsea, who were the first to kick off, quickly sent the ball back.

'The game started and Chelsea kicked off first.'

The ball was passed back to the backfield and passed back and forth twice before it came to the feet of Veron, the Argentinian who has been a star that Chelsea has invested heavily in this season in order to become the heart of this Premier League upstart, so Veron is also ambitious this season.

In the end, it is a top star, the posture of taking the ball is very different, as soon as he took the ball, he did not pass it out in a hurry, but raised his head, observed for a while, and directly made a long pass, and the ball came directly from the back to the left side of the front court. ,

Duff advanced quickly down the left and the Irishman was very fast to get through the Liverpool defence, but Finnam, who was experienced, got stuck early and headed the ball into the way of the retreating Hamann.

The German picked up the ball and quickly sent it forward to the feet of Steven Gerrard and into the Chelsea half.

Ronaldo dropped back on the right to get the ball, turned around, and faced the pressing Bridge.

The Portuguese looked calm and composed, without the shyness and shyness he had in private, and paused deliberately, and when Bridge pressed up, he suddenly kicked the ball in the direction of the baseline, and then chased after the whole person.

Bridge immediately followed, ready to block Ronaldo's pass to the middle.

The Portuguese was fast, made a sharp stop, and then accelerated towards the baseline.

Bridges also followed the emergency stop, and then accelerated, the whole process was very reluctant, but it was still able to keep up, especially as soon as he saw that the bottom line was coming, Bridge wanted Xiao Xiao Luo to take the ball out of the bottom line by himself.

But just when the ball was about to go out of the bottom line, Xiao Xiaoluo suddenly made another emergency stop and stopped the ball in the bottom line, and the person rushed out of the bottom line, but he didn't slip on the ground like Bridge, looking very embarrassed.

When you get back inside the pitch, get up and pass the ball.

The cross didn't land very well, and after Drogba followed up in the middle, he was stuck in the position of Desailly's experienced and headed the ball out.

Although he couldn't get a shot on goal, Rowe's forced break down the right flank brought down Bridge, and the crowd at Anfield was immediately cheered.

"Oh my God, two emergency stops in a row, this guy's explosiveness and speed are too good, and his foot skills are very skillful!" The on-site commentators couldn't help but marvel.

In that short distance on the right side of the penalty area, two consecutive sprints and two emergency stops, Xiao Xiaoluo really did a good job.

It wasn't long before the ball was cleared and it was back at Liverpool's feet, this time on the right.

Xiao Xiao Luo faced Bridge, and saw that this guy used his little bee signature move, stepping on the bicycle twice in a row, shaking Bridge's center of gravity unstable, and the whole person was biased to the direction of the penalty area, while Xiao Xiao Luo completed the breakthrough along the right line.

The next cross fell to the front post and Gerrard headed in from behind, just over the cure.

"It's so beautiful! Two beautiful breakthroughs in a row have given us a glimpse of this wonderful Portuguese winger, he is Cristiano Ronaldo, let's remember the name! ”

The Anfield stadium was completely boiling, and for nothing else, it was aimed at Xiao Xiaoluo's two breakthroughs.

Gorgeous, so gorgeous!

Despite failing to score, Bridge was completely passive and almost played around when defending Ronaldo, and the Portuguese's speed and technique almost confused him.

"Is this the winger that Yang Cheng has high hopes for? If so, we have to be impressed by Caesar's vision once again, because his performance is just too good! ”

Yang Cheng stood on the side of the court where Qihang provided the ghost might, he saw Xiao Xiaoluo shake Bridges twice in a row under his nose, he had to laugh, once this kid's skills were given room to play, it was really gorgeous.

Bridge's defensive prowess was not reassuring, with pre-match media commentary focusing on Chelsea's two flanks, believing that neither Bridge's defensive prowess could be reassuring, but Bridge's favourite was the focus of Blues fans for gifting a penalty in Champions League qualifying.

In this game, Ranieri focused on defending the middle, obviously afraid of Gerrard and Davies's back-row insertion, and he let go of the wing, more because Liverpool played more in the middle of the pre-season warm-up game, and the two wing players did not play very well.

But he didn't know the reason, and he didn't know that Yang Cheng had changed this set in the past two weeks.

"This kid likes to be in the limelight, so give him the limelight, as long as he doesn't stick to the ball and doesn't delay the fighter, let him play!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

He just wants Xiao Xiao Luo to comprehend it himself, too flashy and fancy skills, it's okay to meet a character like Bridge, but when he encounters an experienced and experienced defender, he is finished. ,

Sometimes, no matter how much Yang Cheng says, it's useless, it's like a child, you tell him that the chili pepper is spicy, he doesn't believe it, he must try it himself, after eating the spicy, he will understand, ah, it's really spicy.

The same is true for Xiao Xiao Luo!

Although Benitez does not agree with Yang Cheng's approach, he respects his heart for nurturing young players.

Yang Cheng is not partial, he entrusts little Ronaldo with important responsibilities, Robben, Drogba, Essien, Glenn Johnson, every player in the team is very concerned, and he is doing his best to help them improve and grow.

It's just that Xiao Xiaoluo's situation is relatively special and is valued by the coaching staff.

'Ranieri focused his defence in the middle, but he gave us space to attack on the wings, giving Ronaldo and Robben room to play, but we didn't do a very good job of keeping up in the middle.

Yang Cheng nodded, the defense of Lampard, Veron and Makelele is still very good, and it is undoubtedly difficult to open up the situation for a while, especially Makelele's protection in front of the penalty area.

…………

…………

"So fast! Robben formed a quick break down the left flank, he used his speed to force a break through Babayaro, it was too fast for Babayaro to catch up at all, Robben crossed from the left side of the box. ”

"Middle-of-the-road Drogba cuts in, header on goal!"

"Oops, Cudicini flew to the ball with his fingertips, a brilliant save!"

"Liverpool's offensive was like a tide after the opening, and the Reds who fought at home frequently played amazing offences on the two wings, especially the breakthroughs of Robben and Xiao Xiao Luo on the left and right wings, which were even more amazing, and Liverpool's attack was breathtaking!" "On the other hand, Chelsea, after the opening, was constrained by the defense on the two wings, and was never able to organize an effective counterattack, especially Duff, who played on the left, was taken care of by Finnam, and Mutu and Babayaro on the right were completely suppressed by the combination of Robben and Reese on the left, and Chelsea looked very passive on the field."

"However, although passive, Chelsea appear to be very solid in defence, basically not giving Liverpool too good opportunities, Terry and Desailly's centre-back combination, plus the front of Lampard, Veron and Makelele to help defend the defense, so that Chelsea do a good job in the middle of the defense, did not give Liverpool too good a chance to score."

"Claudio Ranieri is still very good at adjusting the defence, his Chelsea has been a headache for other Premier League teams in defence, and the Blues have been one of the best defensive teams in the Premier League in the last two or three seasons, especially this season, after focusing on the introduction of a number of players, the defense has been greatly improved."

"Caesar is in charge, Ranieri is in charge, it's an interesting game!"

The on-site commentator watched the situation on the field, Liverpool attacked quickly, Chelsea defended steadily, neither side made any mistakes, but the time kept passing, and the score still did not change.

…………

…………

"Dietmar, slow down, slow down!"

Yang Cheng walked to the sidelines and waved at Haman who was not far away, signaling him to slow down the pace.

His shouts were heard by everyone around him, after all, he had just arrived at the team, and he had not yet formed a tacit understanding, and he gestured several times to tell Hamann to slow down, but the German simply did not understand what the gesture meant.

What a fuck!

"We can't slow down as soon as we get fast!" Yang Cheng pointed to the field and said with a smile, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.

Liverpool seem to be in control of the situation on the pitch, but in reality, Chelsea's defence is solid, and Ranieri is hoping that you can be fast, and he is waiting to see how fast you can go.

45 minutes? 50 minutes? 60 minutes?

You'll always have a lack of stamina, and when you slow down, I'll completely break you at that time!

This was a trick that Yang Cheng used to use in the past, but now it was used by others to deal with him, and he was really a little bitter in his heart.

Feng Shui takes turns!

"Don't these bastards know how to slow down?" Yang Cheng saw that Hamann had another mid-to-long pass, handed to Xiao Xiaoluo on the right, and the Portuguese continued to rush with the ball, and he did complete a very beautiful one-on-one pass, playing Bridge, but the final cross was cleared by Terry again. Useless!

The goal is arranged in the middle, so the tactics of football are always to focus on the middle of the attacking area, no matter how strong the side is, the ball must return to the middle to be able to score.

Now Liverpool control the flanks, Ronaldo Jr. and Arjen Robben are out of the limelight, but the problem is that once the ball is in the middle, there is no way, and Chelsea are firmly in control of the middle.

"This guy's tactics are still very targeted!" Benitez looked at Ranieri in the distance, who was as steady as Tarzan.

"For a fart!" Yang Cheng burst into foul language.

The assistants around him laughed, if the premiere was messed up, God knows if Yang Cheng would tear Melwood's god off?

was angry, but Yang Cheng had to admit that the Italian head coach was indeed excellent in tactics.

The Premier League is about passion, the Brazilians are playing art, but what the Italians are best at is manipulation, they are always deducing the situation on the field, so each of those great Italian managers is a master of deduction, they are always so calm and sensible, because they are thinking all the time.

"These bastards are really ......," Yang Cheng sighed, "Forget all the pre-game arrangements!" ”

"That's why I said, we need Xavi Alonso!" Benitez nagged again.

Yang Cheng didn't give this guy a good look, "Don't I know?" You have the ability to buy him! ”

When everyone saw them bickering, they all burst out laughing.

Benitez himself laughed, he wanted to buy it, but he couldn't.

Yang Cheng is also depressed, the current Liverpool does lack the ability to control the tempo, so the only thing he can do is to make up for this lack of three players in the midfield with the non-stop running of the three players in the midfield like Mourinho did when he was at Chelsea.

In other words, once Liverpool can't run, then it can only let the opponent slaughter!

…………

…………

Liverpool dominated the game, but Chelsea's steadyness, especially in the middle, did not give Liverpool the slightest chance.

The pass from the two wings never caused much movement in the middle, and Drogba, under the joint constraints of Desailly and Terry, was completely submerged in the opponent's defense, losing this fulcrum, and Liverpool's attack lost its pillar and could not form an effective threat.

In other words, Liverpool can effectively put the ball into the 32-metre zone, but they lack the means to convert chances into goals in the 32-metre zone, as the opposition's defensive system completely covers the area.

Ranieri's tactic is to defend and counterattack, he makes it clear that he wants to consume with you, let you attack, as long as you are tired of attacking, when the time comes, I will pounce and fight, you will die!

Yang Cheng is of course aware of his team's problems, so all he has to do is prevent this from happening, and he must adjust an effective tactic as soon as possible to break down the Chelsea defence and score goals.

At that point, the initiative will be back in Liverpool's hands.

As the clock ticked 40 minutes, Yang Cheng felt there was no need to continue watching the game, and he turned around and walked towards Tim Hank, who focused on the first-half statistics, especially those from Chelsea.

He has always believed that there is no such thing as a flawless tactic, but any tactic must be executed by people, and people will make mistakes, so he believes that Chelsea's defence can also be flawed.

The key point is how to find this vulnerability and exploit it! (To be continued) [This text is provided by the Ghost of Sailing]
