Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

The beginning of Chapter 39 surprised everyone!

Brendan Rodgers calmly folded his arms across his chest and watched his disciples tee off in the center circle.

At the press conference before the game, he used many words of praise to congratulate Gerrard on his amazing achievements in the Scottish Super League, and said that one day, Gerrard will enter Liverpool and become the coach of a wealthy club.

Although it was a place where he had stayed, he had no chance to realize his dream.

During Gerrard's final years at Liverpool, Rodgers was the manager at the time.

The best time for the two to cooperate is undoubtedly the 13-14 season. The coach and the captain worked together to top the Premier League for most of the season.

But if you ask Gerrard what is his biggest regret at Liverpool, the answer is probably that season.

That year, his century slip against Chelsea in the 36th round completely ruined Liverpool's hope of winning the first Premier League title.

runner up?No one will sympathize with the runner-up.

After that, the two worked hard for another season, but still got nothing.

So one went away to the American major leagues, and after playing for one season, he retired and became a coach;
The other was fired and went to the Soviet Super League, leading the Celtics to sweep the country without any suspense, and won the club's 100th championship, which was also his first championship.

Time flies, and now the two are no longer masters and apprentices, but meet again as opponents.

Gerrard admitted that his coaching philosophy was influenced by many coaches who took him before. He mentioned Houllier, Benitez, Hodgson and Capello, but Dalglish and Rodgers were not alone.

Gerrard is more direct than Rodgers, who pays more attention to the tactical concept of ball possession.

The same emphasis was placed on starting the attack from wide, with Rodgers looking to push forward while in possession, while Gerrard asked his players to initiate quick passes.

Just like the current situation on the court, the ball is going back and forth at the feet of Endidi, Tielemans, Madison and others, but other players are not eager to press on, but patiently looking for opportunities.

Gerrard also stood on the sidelines watching all this.

In his plan, if Vardy is the most likely to change the score on Leicester City's side, then Chen Xiaoliang is on the Rangers side!
After Madison took a few steps along the middle, he passed it back to Thielemans behind him. The Belgian didn't stop the ball at all, and passed it diagonally to Barnes, who had already inserted it.

A wonderful behind the ball!
But the Reds had already started to act. Just as Barnes unloaded the ball, Chen Xiaoliang kicked it out!Broke the ball directly!

Barnes was tripped, but the referee was on the sidelines and didn't say anything!

Chen Xiaoliang didn't stop at all, and passed a high ball straight forward close to the sidewalk. Little Haji and Alibo had already run forward!

Chen Xiaoliang's passes are countless, they just ask him to pass the ball in the right direction, whether he can catch up or not, and whether he catches it is his own business!

[Beautiful steal! 】

[Chen Xiaoliang's kick completely saw through Leicester's offensive routine, and he moved ahead to destroy it. This defensive awareness must be praised! 】

[Is there anyone like me who feels that Chen Xiaoliang is getting faster and faster? 】

[Finally someone has the same idea as me, and I think his basic skills have improved a lot, he is no longer a rough guy]

【quick?Men can't be too fast, can they? 】

...

After previous training and adding points, Chen Xiaoliang's speed is now 15.

What is the concept of 15?
Even if he returns to the Tottenham first team, this speed is one of the fastest in the team.

At the point where his pass landed, Aribo and Ndidi got entangled together!
The two are teammates of the Nigerian national team, and the height is also 183. The two black and hard are entangled together. You pull me, I hug you, just like two buffaloes wrestling with each other!
No one can completely control the ball!

Little Haji caught up at this time and brought Thomas, who was in charge of marking him, over!
All of a sudden, within a small area on the wing, four players from both sides were fighting for control of the ball at the same time!
Chen Xiaoliang ran towards the center, but there was no one guarding him.

Rogers also made sufficient preparations for this game, especially facing Chen Xiaoliang, he even arranged detailed coping strategies!
Dribbling, shooting, passing, crossing, these are Chen Xiaoliang's Achilles heel!

Why arrange people to carry out special marking!
The four of them fought and fought again, and finally Thomas kicked the ball and passed it to Thielemans in the middle, ready to attack again!
But before the ball rolled far, Chen Xiaoliang, who had predicted the route of Thomas' pass, was already in place. He cut the ball and immediately rushed forward with the ball!

Gerrard repeatedly told him before the game that the key to Leicester's attack in the center is the central axis connection between midfielder Thielemans, midfielder Madison and forward Vardy!

At this time, Leicester City's two defensive midfielders Ndidi and Tielemans are not by Chen Xiaoliang's side, and the only two central defenders standing near the top of the penalty area can stop him!
Se Yunju came forward. This Turkish central defender has been in the Bundesliga for many years. He has a tough style and acts decisively. He ran a few steps with Chen Xiaoliang's pace, and stretched his feet directly to make a steal!
Several offensive players of the Rangers were very surprised. Why didn't Chen Xiaoliang get the ball immediately after getting the ball, but instead led it forward by himself?

At this time, seeing Se Yunju defending him one-on-one, their hearts were also half-cooled, and they were ready to run ahead of time to defend Leicester City's counterattack!

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoliang flicked the ball slightly to the left with his left foot, kicked the ground with his right foot to accelerate, and with a simple change of direction, he directly passed Se Yunju!

Not only the Rangers fans who came to the away game, but even the Leicester fans at home were amazed!

Luf and Kent, who had already switched to jogging, were surprised to see this scene, but as professional players, they immediately realized that this was a huge opportunity!

Because there is only Evans in front of them as a defender!

The 32-year-old Evans is fighting and retiring. Although he was swept out of Manchester United by his successor Van Gaal after Ferguson retired, he has won three Premier League titles and is still one of the best central defenders in the Premier League.

Although he was surprised that Chen Xiaoliang, who had never had a record before, easily passed Se Yunju, but Evans did not panic. He wanted to use continuous interference to slow down Chen Xiaoliang's advancing speed, so that his teammates had time to quickly return to defense.

At this time, Chen Xiaoliang has Evans in front of him, and Roof and Kent on the left. Passing to them is a good choice.

Behind him is Se Yunju, who is madly chasing to fill the position. Once the speed slows down, he will catch up with him at any time!
There is Thomas chasing back from the right, but Haji, who is also running close to the side, has already attracted Thomas' defensive attention.

It seems that the best option for Chen Xiaoliang is to pass to Luf or Kent on the left!

How could Evans fail to see this, his body shifted sideways early, and got stuck in the passing route between Chen Xiaoliang and the two!

Schmeichel, on the other hand, was already leaning over to the right of the goal, covering all the predictable shooting routes!

Seeing that he was about to enter the penalty area and could no longer make large-scale defensive moves, Evans had to step forward and close Chen Xiaoliang, so that he could start more small moves.

Chen Xiaoliang did the same thing, once again swung his right foot and kicked his left foot!
However, Evans was already prepared after seeing Se Yunju being slapped just now, and Chen Xiaoliang's change of direction did not get rid of him!
But Chen Xiaoliang suddenly stepped on the ball and stopped it!

Se Yunju, who was chasing after him with all his strength, was caught off guard and bumped into Chen Xiaoliang's back!
"Beep!"

The referee blows the whistle decisively!Free kick on the penalty area line!
【what's the situation? !Have a great time! 】

[This is the first time I saw Chen Xiaoliang is extraordinary! 】

[Did Gerrard give him special training? 】

【pity!Two steps ahead is a penalty! 】

[When you become Yingmu Huadao, you entered the national competition from a layman in two months. That is something that only happens in cool articles. How is it possible in reality! 】
