Dominate the midfield

Chapter 124 Cold Encounter!

To be someone like Ince is to achieve what he did.

Wang Rui knew how to go ahead and what to do now.For example, in the immediate match against Liverpool, he knew that in addition to playing with consistent enthusiasm, the Wolves must seize the few opportunities in order to be able to defeat a powerful opponent.

Beating the giants is a very exciting thing, and it is even what other teams in the Premier League most want to do.The Wolves performed amazingly in the League Cup, eliminated two Championship teams and one Premier League team in a row, and reached the fourth round.

Wang Rui hopes that the team will go further in the League Cup, and then step into the finals and win the championship trophy.In doing so, in addition to satisfying the desire to win the championship, there are reasons to attract Sir Alex Ferguson's attention.

He is extremely eager to beat Liverpool, because Liverpool is Manchester United's sworn enemy.

When Manchester United trained the youth team, he knew that Liverpool was Manchester United's sworn enemy.This kind of thinking, the longer he stayed at Manchester United, became more ingrained.

Think about it, if Wolves can beat Liverpool, how will Manchester United fans laugh at their arch-rivals?
Sir Alex Ferguson will definitely notice him, so he is one step closer to Old Trafford.

If his teammates know what he thinks in his heart, they will understand why he insists on his own ideas and must beat Liverpool.

……

The journey was long, so long that the Wolves players settled for lunch in the car and even took a nap before arriving in Liverpool.The seven-hour long journey was finally over, and the Wolves, carrying their sports bags up and down, walked into the hall of the train station.

The reporters who were waiting in the hall suddenly regained their spirits, and they crowded around in a turbulent manner.Ince signaled his assistant to lead the players out of here, and he had to face the reporter alone.

A reporter first asked: "The last time the Wolves met Liverpool was in the No.03 ninth round of the Premier League in the 04-20 season. At that time, Liverpool won [-]-[-] at home. Four seasons later, the two teams met again , do you have confidence in the Wolves?"

Ince said in a deep voice: "Liverpool is a team worthy of people's respect. At the same time, they are also a strong team and have made great contributions to English football."

"Wolves are just a League One team, which is inconspicuous in the eyes of many people. If I say that Wolves will win against Liverpool, many people will take it as a joke."

Sure enough, some reporters started laughing.

Ince didn't laugh, he continued: "If the Wolves are a pack of wolves, then Liverpool are a pack of elephants. Wolves have no chance to beat Liverpool. However, we will do our best to win!"

"Some people say my tactics are 'crazy wolf tactics', so tonight we will show the world how my crazy wolf tactics make Liverpool uncomfortable!"

"Yes, it's been four seasons. The 03-04 season is both a glory and a shame for the Wolves. Liverpool's victory over the Wolves four seasons ago does not mean that they will definitely be able to beat the Wolves now."

A reporter shook his head. Four seasons ago, the Wolves were stronger than they are now.What the Wolves didn't do, can this Wolves do now?
A reporter asked: "So, your Wolves will continue to push up the defense tonight like before? Are you not afraid of Torres' speed?"

Ince didn't pause, and said directly: "Of course, we will continue to implement the previous tactics, because this tactic has allowed us to achieve good results."

"Torres is a good striker and has good speed, but we have fast defenders in the team and we can definitely stop him."

The reporter asked: "Are you talking about the young player Kenting in the team?"

Ince nodded and said, "Yes!"

A 19-year-old teenager, who has only played a dozen League One games and a few League Cup games, wants to contain Spain's talented striker?
is it possible?

A reporter asked: "Some people think that the victory or defeat of this game depends on who can control the midfield. Do you agree with this view? In addition, do you think Wang can still maintain the previous two months in this game? Is it in perfect condition?"

Wolves took a seven-hour train journey, but Liverpool did not suffer from the exhaustion of the train.Even if the young player Wang Rui can defy the sky, it will be difficult for him to perform well at Anfield.

Ince thought for a while and said, "I agree with this view. The victory or defeat of this game depends on the control of the midfielder. As for Wang's performance... I believe he can maintain a good state as always."

"Maybe you don't believe what I said, I will say another reason. His dream is to set foot on the Old Trafford stadium one day, because he came out of the Manchester United youth academy."

Everyone understands this. It is understandable that a player who wants to be Manchester United wants to defeat Manchester United's sworn enemy.But the reporters thought of another thing, they looked at each other in blank dismay, Wang Rui was a player who was given up by Sir Alex Ferguson, and now Ince said that his dream is to become a Manchester United player?
What does it mean?
And when the media broke out that Manchester United gave up the teenager two years ago, Manchester United adopted a silent approach.Could it be that this teenager really has a personal grudge with Sir Alex Ferguson?
……

The game was scheduled for [-]:[-] in the evening. After the Wolves got off the train, they went directly to a small hotel to rest.At four o'clock in the afternoon, the Wolves settled down for dinner in a small restaurant, and at five o'clock they rushed to Anfield Stadium ahead of schedule.

Came to Anfield Stadium, the time is 05:30.When they were about to enter the stadium, the security of the stadium did not allow them to enter the stadium in advance!

Their reasoning was that teams could only enter the field an hour and a half earlier.

They said that this is the relevant regulations of the FA!

Ince had no choice but to let his players sit down and rest on the sidelines.This made the Wolves angry. In the League One, in order to save the start, the away team often went straight to the locker room of the stadium after getting off the train, and the management staff of the opposing stadium would not be embarrassed.

But when they arrived at Liverpool's home court, they were rejected.

Peter sat on the steps, spat, and said viciously, "Damn it, they must have done it on purpose. If I haven't found the courage to beat Liverpool before this, then I have now!"

He turned his head and looked at Wang Rui beside him and said, "Wang, let's beat Liverpool together tonight! Let them look at people like dogs! We must make them suffer, and we must teach them a deep lesson!"

Wang Rui smiled and said, "Your reason is also..."

Afterwards, his face sank and he said, "However, what you said makes sense. Our goal tonight is to win!"

Kenting, who was sitting beside them, nodded vigorously and said, "Let's sit outside the court...to beat them!"

The behavior of the Anfield stadium management personnel not only failed to lower the morale of the Wolves team, but inspired a greater fighting spirit of the Wolves team.If they heard what Wang Rui and the others said, would they regret their actions?

Of course not, in their eyes, the Wolves are not a respectable opponent.

Miraculous relegation last season?
God, that's just relegation, not championship!
Thirteen consecutive victories in League One this season?
God, that's League One, is League One high...

A three-game winning streak in the League Cup, beating two Championship teams and a Premier League team?
God, it's because they didn't meet Liverpool, otherwise they would have lost!
……

Twenty minutes later, the Wolves entered the locker room of the visiting team. They quickly changed into their training clothes and went to warm up and adapt to the venue.The turf is neatly cut, like a green carpet, and running on it is a great enjoyment.

After running for a few steps, Peter forgot the previous unhappiness and shouted: "Playing football on this kind of turf is so fucking comfortable!"

The staff on the sidelines cast contemptuous glances at him, then shook their heads and said, "A bumpkin is a bumpkin..."

Kenting touched Peter and looked at the sideline staff.After taking a look, Peter said confidently, "This piece of turf is already very comfortable, and I'm not lying. And I'm praising them. They should be happy."

Wang Rui on the side shook his head with a smile, then looked up at the stands.Anfield, which can accommodate more than 4 fans, has the same color of seats as their jerseys - red!
Red like blood!

Perhaps it is this color that makes the Liverpool team full of enthusiasm and can often play iron-blooded games.This red reminded him of Manchester United.

Manchester United's red is similar to Liverpool's red, which is the color of his dreams.

"Wang, hurry up, jog!"

Peter looked at Wang Rui who was distracted, and shouted, "What are you thinking? You can't do this. It's the most taboo to be distracted during a game."

Wang Rui followed and scolded with a smile: "There is no competition now, so what if you are distracted."

……

Shortly afterwards, Liverpool players also came to the stadium. Wang Rui glanced over, looking for Gerrard.Who is the best midfielder in England right now?

90.00% of people will say: Gerrard and Lampard!

In Wang Rui's eyes, Gerrard is not only the best midfielder in England, but also a representative of loyalty.Since his debut, he has stayed at Liverpool and regards this team as his lifetime team.

Wang Rui also had this idea before, serving for Manchester United all his life, but luckily, he is not a player of Manchester United now.

"Don't look?" Peter warned him in a low voice.

"Why?" Wang Rui asked while glancing at Gerald's sunny face.

Peter said in a low voice: "People usually look at the players of the giants with envy. If you look at them with such eyes, how can we have the courage to defeat them?"

When Kenting heard this, he immediately withdrew his envious and respectful eyes with some fear.Wang Rui shook his head with a smile and said, "There was indeed envy and respect in the way I looked at Gerrard just now."

Peter pursed his lips, shrugged and said, "I see, I'm not wrong..."

What Wang Rui said next left him speechless.

"What I envy is not that he is in a giant like Liverpool, but that he is happy and can play for a team all his life. I respect his achievements in football. I think most people talk about Gerrard. He would give him a thumbs up, and even Manchester United fans would approve of him without saying it."

"Envy and respect will not shake my determination, but will only motivate me to keep moving forward."

He looked at the flat turf under his feet and said, "We will play football on such turf one day!"

Kenting nodded and said, "Yes! One day we will be able to play on such turf."

Perhaps because he felt that Wang Rui had robbed him of the limelight in front of Kenting, Peter muttered, "Aren't we playing on such turf now?"

Kenting felt that he misunderstood what Wang Rui meant, and said, "What Wang Rui meant was not what you said, but that..."

Peter interrupted him bluntly and said: "I know, I know, isn't it just playing football for a wealthy club? On the train, Old Ince already said it, and he just picked up what Old Ince said, nothing new ..."
