Chapter 26 Yellow Task: Score the first league goal (second update, monthly ticket!)

Chen Yingxiong has always believed that he needs to be famous and capable now. He moved to Liverpool and started smoothly in Liverpool.

Especially now that the team has a dedicated wing player Adam Johnson.

The person who thinks like him is Adam Johnson. He obeyed Niang's call and thought that he would definitely have the main position to play when he came to Liverpool. Tangning didn't come. He came by herself. Liverpool has a high center forward like Chen Yingxiong. Wouldn't he be prevented from playing?

Therefore, in training and in daily contact, Adam Johnson deliberately got closer to Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong follows his principles of dealing with things in Naples, and is also willing to make friends and get close to his teammates who can provide him with all kinds of help on the field. So although the two people have known each other for the shortest time, the relationship is good.

Both feel that with the help of each other, the future and performance of this team should be bright.

But in fact it is not the case.

The English Premier League started in mid-August. Before that, in the last warm-up match, Adam Johnson had a 40-minute chance to play, but when he played, Chen Yingxiong had been replaced. His kick There was no chance to show Chen Yingxiong in the side pass. He is like an ordinary full-back on the court, dribbling the ball and making a pass, but there is no center forward who can grab a point in the middle. Kuyt is working hard, but there is a huge gap in strength and talent.

Although Adam Johnson was a little bit depressed at first, he did not delve into this issue.

Naturally, Chen Yingxiong felt that it was not a big deal-it was normal to have a rotation in the warm-up match, a set of lineups in the first half and a set of lineups in the second half. He and Adam Johnson did not appear at the same time and he did not think about too complicated aspects.

Johnson's performance in this warm-up match was very average, because his purpose was to pass Chen Yingxiong, but Chen Yingxiong was not on the court, and his cooperation with other players lacked sufficient tacit understanding. He naturally did not have those. Flash highlights.

No one thinks there is anything wrong with this. After all, Adam Johnson has only been on the team for half a month. Chen Yingxiong has been on the team for more than a month, which is not too tacit. But his own strength is outstanding, even if he lacks cooperation, he still has the ability to score goals.

But when it comes to the real league, the situation is different.

※※※

On August 13, Liverpool played against Sunderland at home, and the 2011-2012 season of the English Premier League officially kicked off.

Originally Liverpool is not a strong contender for the championship. But when they spent a lot of money to introduce Chen Yingxiong, they became a popular team. In this summer, countless media gathered in Liverpool to pay attention to Liverpool's every move to prepare for the match.

Now that the first game of the new season is about to begin, the media naturally pay more attention.

Can Chen Yingxiong show his scoring ability in the new season?

Does the arrival of the hero mean that the competition for the top scorer in the Premier League has lost its suspense?

Will Chen Yingxiong be the top scorer to inform the Premier League for the next ten years?

Will Liverpool soar into the sky because of Chen Yingxiong's joining?

These issues are the most discussed by the media, and most of the media are optimistic about Chen Yingxiong's performance.

If Chen Yingxiong directly transferred to Liverpool when he was in Zenit St. Petersburg, despite his outstanding performance in the UEFA Cup, he might not get such a result. After all, the Russian Super League and UEFA Cup are not in the eyes of reporters. So dazzling. It is inevitable for everyone to think about whether this person can adapt to the technical and tactical characteristics and style of the Premier League when he comes to the Premier League.

Today, few people have mentioned this issue. If three consecutive Serie A top scorers and two consecutive Champions League top scorers cannot prove that Chen Yingxiong is an absolutely awesome figure, then there must be a problem in this world.

"...Chen Yingxiong no longer needs to prove anything. At the age of 23, he is already the world's top center forward. Just like no one would ask Messi to prove his ability. In terms of scoring ability, Chen Yingxiong is the best!"

This is a commentary by the local Liverpool newspaper Echo.

To be honest, Chen Yingxiong agrees. He also felt that he didn't need to prove to the outside world whether he was worthy of 70 million yuan. At one time, some people said that this value was a little high, which might put Chen Yingxiong under a lot of pressure.

But Chen Yingxiong himself doesn't feel any pressure at all. He still thinks that the price is low. Ask him to say that he is eager to create the world's first worth by himself.

High net worth can satisfy Chen Yingxiong's vanity.

As for how to prove his worth on the court, he didn't worry at all.

But he thought all of this beautifully.

In his first Premier League game in his career, he didn't score a goal.

He started the game and played for 90 minutes without scoring a goal.

This surprised the media who gathered at the scene.

Chen Yingxiong did not work hard in the competition. He ran actively, from the middle to the side, and from the side to the middle, running from front to back, and from back to front.

But there are few chances to shoot.

Because of this game, Adam Johnson did not play, did not play for a minute, and sat on the bench for a full ninety minutes.

Liverpool fully demonstrated their lack of wing in this game-basically the offense was launched from the center. Charlie Adam served as the starter, and when Gerrard was injured and missed the game, he took on the task of organizing the offense.

But asking a newcomer who has just joined the team for more than a month to be the core of the organization is somewhat difficult. Charlie Adam doesn't know much about Liverpool and his teammates.

A newcomer who just joined the team this summer is the core of the organization, and a player who is also a newcomer is the core of the attack. If Liverpool's performance can be good, hell.

In the end, Liverpool was tied 1:1 by Sunderland at their home court. Suarez, who returned to the team after the Copa America, scored the only goal for the team.

Chen Yingxiong can not score every game. In Naples last season, he was in such a good state, and there were times when he didn't score in two consecutive league rounds. However, his hat-trick in the Champions League final is too strong and left a very deep impression on people. Many people think that he should score a goal like cutting vegetables. In the Premier League premiere, you have to decorate with goals no matter what, to be considered a success.

Therefore, if Chen Yingxiong did not score a goal, everyone felt a little surprised and disappointed.

Adam Johnson failed? That's not the reason at all! With Chen Yingxiong's ability, even if he is alone, he should be able to score a goal! His strong body, his excellent long-range shooting ability, and his ability to catch fighters in front of goal, can't these bring him even a goal?

No one would believe that Adam Johnson's absence from the game would have such a big impact on Chen Yingxiong.

But the fact is, Chen Yingxiong deliberately got close to Adam Johnson during training, and the relationship between the two quickly warmed up, and the cooperation on the court was a little tacit. So Adam Johnson did not appear, which surprised Chen Yingxiong. Coupled with Liverpool's tactics, Chen Yingxiong feels awkward-a long pass from the backcourt. Chen Yingxiong usually makes wedding clothes for his teammates, using his header skills as a transfer station and ferrying for his teammates. Assists. Suarez's goal came from Chen Yingxiong's successful header in the frontcourt and Lucas assisted.

※※※

Without scoring a goal, Chen Yingxiong didn't take it seriously. He didn't score a goal in a game in his career, nor did he have never experienced it. He experienced a lot and naturally didn't think there was anything.

But Adam Johnson was a little depressed. Because he didn't even have a minute of playing time.

In the press conference after the game, a reporter asked this: "Kenny, Adam Johnson spent the club’s 15 million pounds in transfer fees, but he sat on the bench for a full ninety minutes... "

Dalglish interrupted the questioner: "Yes, he sat on the bench for ninety minutes. But that was because he had just joined the team for less than a month, and he only played a warm-up game. The new season is ushered in. I want to be cautious. I don't want too much attention and pressure to overwhelm him."

This reason is impeccable, because Adam Johnson has just joined the team, and the cooperation with his teammates is not tacit enough.

The media have nothing to say.

So Adam Johnson only continued to be depressed, and worked hard in training, hoping to win the opportunity to play.

Chen Yingxiong is also training hard, hoping to score goals.

He found that the difficulty level of the task changes at any time.

Before the start of the new season, he was given a task of "scoring the first goal in the Premier League". The task was green at the beginning. The system and he thought it was too easy and too simple to score the first goal. Maybe he could not only score the first goal in the first game, but also the second goal. How about the third goal?

After a game, he went to look at the task again, and found that the color of the task had turned yellow...Although it was not difficult, it meant it was difficult!

Chen Yingxiong was depressed all at once.

He felt that he was looked down upon by the system...

※※※

In the second round of Arsenal's league, he still did not score.

In this game, Liverpool defeated Arsenal 2:0 away and took the lead in the first strong dialogue of the season. This is a good thing.

However, Chen Yingxiong still did not score a goal, which dilutes the joy of winning-at least for Chen Yingxiong himself and the Chinese media and Chinese fans.

He didn't score in two consecutive rounds. It was not that Chen Yingxiong had experienced such a thing last season, but that was for a reason-Mazari had a rotation, Chen Yingxiong did not start the game and there was too little time.

It is a bit surprising to start two consecutive games without scoring a goal now.

The performance in the warm-up match is obviously very good, scoring one after another, how come the official league suddenly misfired?

Is it a tactical issue or a staffing issue? Is it the head coach's problem or Chen Yingxiong's own problem?
