"Super Coach"
Wandering outside Shankly's door, I heard the shouts of the KOP, Shankly has left us behind, but he left behind a great team, you go to heaven before, now, glory surrounds the road to Anfield, on the way to Anfield, where we used to witness King Kenny's football, his one-of-a-kind football, our former Steve? High-flying and we sing with dreams and music and glory surrounds Anfield......
Standing outside Paisley's Gate, I heard the shouts of the KOP, Paisley had left us, we dreamed of going back to Rome in '77, the great team you led, our Red Army soldiers, fighting their way, on the way to Anfield, where we used to witness King Kenny's football, his one-of-a-kind football, our former Steve? High-flying and we sing with dreams and music and glory surrounds Anfield......
Standing outside Stanley's Caesar Gate, I heard the cry of the KOP, Great Caesar, are you going to leave us too, you have brought us pride and glory again, we are willing to give you everything you want, I just ask you to stay and fight with us forever............

In the stands of the Liverpool ball at the Stade de France, the anthem of "You will never walk alone" was replaced by this one "On the Road to Anfield".
The song, which originally had only the first two sections, was recently added to the third section by the balls. The song also extends a lot of time. Just to sing about their retention of the manager.
From the time the team scored the third goal, over and over again, especially in the third quarter, more and more Liverpool balls were singing this song, to the Chinese standing in front of the away team's dugout, wearing a pen tǐng casual suit, hoping that he could understand, in Liverpool's mind. He can go hand in hand with the two great coaches of Shankly and Paisley.
He's a living legend of Liverpool!
"It's a touching scene!"
After hearing the singing of Liverpool, the on-site commentator was quite infected, after all, Liverpool Ball is recognized as the best group in the world to create atmosphere, as long as they are there, no team can expect to be able to overwhelm them in terms of momentum.
In this game, the difference in the number of the two teams was not very large, but Liverpool easily pressed down Barcelona's ball, which shows Liverpool's enthusiasm and support for the team.
The live TV camera cleverly cuts to Anfield, where tens of thousands of Liverpool players who can't make it to the Stade de France are also gathered, all looking at the back of the manager Yang Cheng on the big screen in the center of the pitch. Sing along with the live ball singing on the big screen.
The same scene is believed in Sutton's pub, in the whole city of Liverpool. It's all going on and on.
"Yang Cheng didn't turn around to say hello to the ball like before, is he not knowing how to face all this?" The on-site commentator had some empathy and understanding of Yang Cheng's contradictions.
Liverpool have come to this point where they are today, and it's really the limit.
Because for UEFA, which even holds the title as taboo, it would be almost a dream to want three consecutive titles, and this season Liverpool have completed a Grand Slam unprecedented in the Premier League. That has undoubtedly reached a peak and a limit.
Now there are two choices in front of Yang Cheng, one is to retreat bravely, as in the past, to leave his best and brightest side in Liverpool's mind forever, even if countless years later, the ball will recall Yang Cheng. I will only remember what he brought to the team during his three years in charge of Liverpool.
Or stay on, but he'd better see what happens to Ferguson.
Ferguson's tenure reached its peak in '99, and despite losing to Kaiserslautern in the Champions League, United were almost unbeatable in the league and he was not too young to do so, when he could have opted to retire in a hurry, but he didn't.
But the result?
The Manchester United players who worshipped him as a god back then are now clamoring for him to get out of class, just because he has not been able to bring a good turn for Manchester United in recent years, but is the problem on him?
It's not that he's not without responsibility, but it's not his fault to let go of Ronaldinho and lose players like Ronaldo, it's the club's management, but for the vast majority of the balls, they don't care, they just think, you don't take the team, you should be responsible. ..., didn't someone say it?
If power is truly delegated to the general public, it must be the end of the world!
Because at any time, they will always be so easy to accept lies and accept deception.
"There's a lot of luck in Liverpool's Grand Slam this season, at least in the draw for some competitions such as the League Cup and the FA Cup, Liverpool's luck is good, if their luck is a little worse, it's hard to say whether Yang Cheng can repeat this myth."
Heroes are in the twilight, beauties are white, this is a matter of time or time!

Johansson sat in the middle of the podium, the game was not over yet, but he knew that Liverpool's title defence was a foregone conclusion.
Frankly, this is not what he wants to see, because he, like UEFA, can never make a team, a league too strong, because that would dilute UEFA's influence and authority.
But it is clear that Yang Cheng's rise is an outlier!
From Kaiserslautern to Inter Milan to Liverpool, he has won five Champions League titles in the last 10 years, which is an absolute feat of no kind.
Of course, there is another person worth noting, and that is Jose Mourinho.
With the reform of the Boseman Act, the turnover of players is too large today, and the gap between clubs is narrowed. Plus UEFA gives the appropriate operation. This makes it very difficult to defend the title, but Liverpool have shown great competitiveness this season, especially the players in this team, each of whom is so outstanding, which undoubtedly poses a big problem for UEFA.
However, Liverpool's two Champions Leagues, Yang Cheng has the most credit.
He brought in the players, he made the tactics, and he commanded the games. No one can erase his influence on this Liverpool team, a team that belongs to him and bears the hallmark of a very deep Caesar.
"Judging by the current situation, Liverpool will be the favorite next year!" Johansson sighed.
He's trying to avoid the Champions League becoming an oligarchy of F1, but it's clear that Liverpool are making strides in the direction of Ferrari, especially given that they have a manager like no other.
The situation in European football today is strange, with the Premier League flourishing and Serie A in decline. The Bundesliga has sunk, La Liga has won the championship, Real Madrid has lost its competitiveness, and Barcelona is one of the few teams that can compete with the Premier League.
Maybe someone will wonder. Why compete in the Premier League?
Quite simply, what would the result be if the Premier League was allowed to continue to grow?
In the end, the Premier League team monopolized the Champions League by virtue of its financial power, who will watch the Champions League in the future? Go straight to the Premier League. Look at the FA Cup, it's a Premier League civil war anyway!
Now that Liverpool has successfully defended the title, it will definitely blow the wind of the Premier League even harder.
"There is news that Real Madrid is going to poach Yang Cheng!" Sitting next to Johansson was his right-hand man, the Swede Russ? Crist? Olsen, UEFA's chief executive, is now UEFA's most powerful second-in-command. After Johansson's health was found to be asymptomatic, he took over more power.
It was once said that Olsen would replace Johansson to take over as UEFA president, but it is clear that the Swedes did not have that idea.
At the very least, he is different from Platini's frequent high-profile appearances, which shows that he is not ambitious enough.
"To Real Madrid?" John Son smiled, "That's not bad either!" ”
But soon, his brow furrowed, apparently thinking of a deeper question.
With Real Madrid's financial resources, Florentino's courage, coupled with Yang Cheng's vision of transfer reinforcements, and the strength of the players, maybe Real Madrid's stalls are messy enough, but given enough time, will he run Real Madrid into a more powerful and terrifying football force than Liverpool?
"I think it's not without benefit for Liverpool to defend their title!" Olsen said lightly.
"Oh?" Johansson wondered.
"At least some distraction!" Olsen analyzed, "Blatter has recently intervened frequently in the Serie A phone-door incident, and his thoughts are very clear, he has planted a flag in European football through Platini, and has also attracted a lot of football forces, and now his new target is Italy!" ”
Johansson is not a fool, although he is not young, but in this kind of power trick of playing yīn, he is getting older and better. ..., if the biggest difference between Johansson and Platini is that the former's idea is to ensure UEFA's autonomy, while the latter is limited by his background and always wants to move closer to FIFA.
In terms of power structure, UEFA belongs to the continental branch of FIFA, but because European football is the core of world football, UEFA has long been outside FIFA, and even dares to argue with FIFA.
It can be said that UEFA has always been a big problem for FIFA, the problem is that before UEFA was ironclad, Blatter couldn't intervene, but now he has a chance.
Maybe many people are surprised, the phone door is UEFA, what does it have to do with FIFA?
Quite simply, the phone door happened, and the top figures of the Italian Football Federation, such as the president of the Football Association, were forced to resign, and someone needs to be re-replaced, right?
So, these people on top are worth considering, are they supporting Johansson? Or is it in favor of Blatter?
Nominally, supporting Johansson is equivalent to supporting Blatter, and supporting Blatter does not mean not supporting Johansson, but in fact, everyone knows that supporting FIFA is tantamount to going against UEFA under Johansson.
In the past, Johansson would not have any doubts, but now the situation is different, and Platini is likely to replace Johansson in 2007, because even now, Johansson can't put up a suitable person to fight Platini, then the problem is embarrassing.
Maybe someone said it again. There is also a layer of UEFA between FIFA and the Italian Football Federation. What chips do they have?
Let's not forget that 2006 was the year of the World Cup, and what is the most needed thing for Italian football today!
"Go to *** FIFA!" Johansson couldn't help but scold.
Olsen really doesn't have much ambition, at least he is not a decisive old man like Johansson, he wears a pair of glasses, but everyone knows that he is a die-hard supporter of Johansson, and he is also Johansson's think tank and right-hand man. And they are also compatriots in Sweden.
"The most important thing for us now is to stabilize the situation in Serie A, and we can't give Blatter an excuse to intervene!" Olsen suggested.
Johansson nodded, turned his head sideways, and looked not far away, at the UEFA executive committee member who was separated by a few people, Platini was embarrassed and anxious, just like an ant on a hot pot, "Such a clown to be the president of UEFA, I really want to beat ***!" ”
"Don't be angry. Your blood pressure ......," Olson reminded with a wry smile.
Politics is like a game of chess, and a few years ago a layout has made all this today, and many things seem irretrievable. But Johansson still wanted to fight.
Just like Yang Cheng led Liverpool to stand on the football field again after the first half, he must lose decently if he loses!
Johansson took a few deep breaths, his fat body was rising and falling, his age and body were the biggest obstacles to his re-election, but also. His side has never been able to produce enough candidates.
Olsen is suitable, but the problem is that he lacks the minimum high-profile of a politician!
Just as Johansson was distressed, the staff came over and reminded him that the game was almost over and that he should go down to prepare for the medal ceremony.
Stood up. Johansson tugged at his suit, straightened it up, and walked to the exit, accompanied by Olsen, laughing as he passed Platini.
"Michelle, let's go together!" Johansson suggested.
Platini wanted to kill this old man at this time, and let him accompany him at this time, wasn't that just to embarrass him?
But at least, he couldn't refuse Johnsson to his face, so he stood up with a smile, stiffened his face, and nodded, "Okay, together!" He followed Johansson and Olsen to the exit.

…………
The sign with 3 minutes of stoppage time was raised, and the entire Stade de France was boiling!
All Liverpool balls know that there are only three minutes left before their moment of making history.
In 3 minutes, they will be the most enviable ball on the planet!
The Red Army was still singing, but Yang Cheng surprised everyone and walked to Barcelona's home coach's box and went straight to Rijkaard. ..., this move of his made Rijkaard a little unprepared, because the game was not over yet, it was undoubtedly a contempt and provocation for Barcelona, so his first reaction was to want to dodge.
But Yang Cheng obviously came straight to him!
"It's a great game, isn't it?" Yang Cheng took the initiative to reach out.
Rijkaard was slightly stunned, his expression was very embarrassed, he didn't know what kind of reaction to give, and he didn't know how to answer, so he finally simply stretched out his hand and shook it with Yang Cheng, but didn't say anything.
"Thank you, and your Barcelona, at least you gave me an unforgettable night!" Yang Cheng walked away with a smile.
He wanted to say a few words and leave, but he spotted Pep Guardiola in Rijkaard's dugout.
Oh, this is a rival who has fought against several times from La Liga to Serie A!
"Hello, Josep!" Yang Cheng walked over with a smile and stretched out his hand again actively and enthusiastically.
Guardiola straightened his bald head, looked at Yang Cheng's hand, and hesitated, and finally he also stretched out his hand, because he really couldn't do that kind of undignified thing.
"Congratulations...... Congratulations! Guardiola said bitterly.
"Thank you!" Yang Cheng smiled, reached out and patted Guardiola on the shoulder, "Don't be discouraged, don't be discouraged, it's not a failure to reach the final, at least you got a runner-up, didn't you?" ”
After saying that, he smiled again, "Greetings to La Bōerta for me!" Then he turned and walked away.
"He's the most ungraceful, megalomaniacal bastard I've ever met!" A Barcelona staff member said with a resentful look on his face, because this kind of early gesture of coming over to shake hands can definitely be regarded as a demonstration and provocation.
"You should have punched him just now, Josep!" A Barcelona coach said viciously.
Guardiola smiled noncommittally, and wanted to ask him in turn, since you are so ruthless, why didn't you make a move just now?
Of course, Yang Cheng didn't know what was going on behind him, in fact, he didn't care what was happening behind him, because he was the winner, there was no need to care about the thoughts of those losers, not to mention that he was still experiencing such a game, wasn't he?
However, on the way back, he kept circling an idea in his mind, Guardiola came to Barcelona ahead of schedule and entered Rijkaard's coaching team, is this another big change brought by himself?
Will he inherit Rijkaard's team in the future, as he did in his previous life, and then push Barcelona football to bring out a feared Cosmos team?
Judging from the current situation, Yang Cheng really doesn't know, maybe he will, maybe he won't, but one thing is for sure, Messi, Pedro, Busquets and other young players have been rising rapidly, which also proves that his appearance has changed the original historical track to some extent.
He doesn't worry too much about the Cosmos, on the contrary, he hopes that the Cosmos will come early, at least so that he will feel more motivated in his coaching career.
Yang Cheng was thinking about things all the way, the balls were cheering all over the sky, and they didn't notice that Hauge blew the whistle for the end of the game, and all the Liverpool players and staff rushed out of the coaching area, and all the Liverpool balls rushed out of the stands, cheering and cheering for the balls in the stadium.
When he reacted, he saw Dalglish rushing towards him, the king of Liverpool was a little too excited, and rushed all the way over, as if he wanted to hug Yang Cheng, but he couldn't hold back, and accidentally threw Yang Cheng to the ground, and he himself pressed it.
Even more tragic, Ian? Rush, Paul? Bayer, Benitez and the others also pounced one by one, as if they were stacking Arhats, pressing Yang Cheng at the bottom.
This scene saw Charlize in the stands, close at hand? Theron was dumbfounded, because she was very worried, Yang Cheng's body was pressed up for so many years, would the bones be broken?
Charles opened his mouth even wider, shouting at his father vigorously, and he looked very worried.
"Bastard...... Crush me, I'm going to die! Yang Cheng was almost out of breath below, and shouted vigorously, "You bastards get out of the way, get out of here, get out of the way!" ”
But this group of crazy guys obviously didn't care about this intimidation of him at all.
The ball in the stands saw this scene and cheered vigorously.
Yes, they made history, breaking a record that had been held in the Champions League for more than a decade and never been defended by any team!。
