Hero of the Penalty Area

Not only did Chen Yingxiong discover this, but Martin O'Neal also felt that it would not work for him to rotate like this. Since the beginning of the current season, he has rarely repeatedly used the same starting lineup...

The previous frequent rotations are to allow the team to adapt to this kind of rotation.

At the same time, it is also in order to maintain sufficient physical reserves for the team during the Christmas season when the schedule is the most dense.

Now that Christmas has passed, the schedule is flattening out.

It seems that there is no need to continue such an exaggerated rotation. On the contrary, it will cause the player's state and feeling to be unable to be maintained continuously, thereby affecting the state of the team. Just like the game against Reading.

Originally, even if it was an away game, facing the newly promoted Redding, it should be easy to win.

But it turned out to be counterproductive.

Martin O'Neal reflected on it and decided not to rotate too frequently.

For example, in the next FA Cup match with Luton, Martin O'Neal does not intend to continue the rotation.

He wants to dispatch all the main players in this game!

In fact, the away draw by Luton did not affect the team's promotion, but it still made Martin O'Neal feel shameless.

Liverpool, let a semi-professional and semi-amateur team draw on the road! Where does this put Martin O'Neill's face?

So back at home, he must do his best to give Luton a bit of color. Otherwise, Luton really thought they could turn the sky over?

Although Martin O’Neal doesn’t attach importance to the FA Cup, he cannot be eliminated by an amateur team in the first game of the FA Cup... This matter is a stain in his career, and it will never be washed away. The kind that can't be dropped.

From time to time, I will be mentioned by others, how disgusting and disgusting.

With this idea, Liverpool ushered in Luton with a full lineup at home.

"I don't think Luton has any hope in this game. For them, the most wonderful moment is when they came to Anfield. Don't think about anything other than that. Maybe you are happy." The media who knew of Liverpool's starting roster said that Luton was dead.

Even Luton himself has the same idea: "We are proud that we can drag Liverpool into the rematch. Our goal is not to advance, but to show ourselves to the world at Anfield."

But Martin O’Neal doesn’t care about this, he doesn’t care if Luton really surrenders or he wants to get caught. It’s always right to go all out anyway.

Before the game, he said to all the players: "I know you did not participate in the away game, so it can be said that the draw of that game has nothing to do with you. But in fact it is not like this. You are a team. The second team lost the ball. The team will suffer infamy. Unfair? No, very fair, because the name'Liverpool' needs to be maintained by each of you! So in this game, I don't want to see any suspense, any setbacks, and give me a complete blow Shen each other!"

In fact, even if Martin O'Neal didn't speak, Chen Yingxiong would do the same.

Because he also desperately wants to use a game to find his state again. In the last game against Reading, he tried his best and failed to score a goal. It cannot be said that he didn't work hard, but he was out of shape. The state is very mysterious, it is difficult to describe what it should look like, it is the kind of existence that can only be understood. Set sail update group ghost

Anyway, no state is no state.

Now the team has encountered a weak team in their home court, this is a good opportunity to adjust the state.

Chen Yingxiong would naturally not let Luton go.

In the eleventh minute, he took the lead for the team and shot through the Luton goalkeeper's ten fingers with a long shot from outside the penalty area.

This ball also opened the slaughter scene of Liverpool's game.

In the next thirty minutes, Suarez grabbed a spot in front of the goal and slammed Adam Johnson's cross into the goal with his thigh.

Before the end of the first half, Sanchez completely sealed the victory for the team, 3:0! Liverpool led by three goals at home, with a total score of 4:1. Luton was beaten with no fight back. Not only that, they even lost their parry.

In the second half, he changed sides and fought again. It was Chen Yingxiong who scored again, this time with a direct free kick. Liverpool lead Luton 4-0 at home. At this time, the game only lasted 57 minutes.

In the 69th minute, Gerrard scored the fifth goal for the team with a long shot. 5:0.

In the 82nd minute, Gerrard scored twice and took another long shot to lock the score at 6:0.

With a total score of 7:1, Liverpool had no suspense and cleanly eliminated Luton, who once embarrassed them.

Although Luton was slaughtered, but this did not affect the mood of their players. Perhaps it was because he had set his position right from the beginning and thought it was impossible to eliminate Liverpool at Anfield, so everyone had a good mentality after the game.

Someone came to Chen Yingxiong to exchange jerseys.

The person here is a player who looks particularly young...No, it is not right to use young to describe it, you have to say "childish".

The player's visual age is only seventeen or eighteen.

In this game, he was replaced in the 60th minute and played as a forward. But there is no chance of performance, because the whole team of Luton is pressed by Liverpool and has no time to attack. Luton had only two shots in this game, all in the first half.

After seeing Chen Yingxiong, the little kid stammered to Chen Yingxiong with excitement and horror: "Can I...can I exchange jerseys with you, hero?"

The opponent is an amateur player who has never heard of the name, but the exchange of jerseys has nothing to do with whether the opponent is famous or not. Since the other party wants it, you can give it to yourself. The jersey is not a valuable thing for you. As long as the opponent's players are not particularly annoying, Chen Yingxiong doesn't mind swapping jerseys with others.

The media say that Chen Yingxiong is difficult to get along with, but only after you really come into contact with him will you find that what the media is talking about is shit!

Chen Yingxiong took off the jersey, handed it to the kid, and at the same time took the other side's jersey.

Luton's young player was very happy after taking over Chen Yingxiong's jersey and put it directly on him.

Then he thanked Chen Yingxiong, then turned around and ran away happily.

Looking at the other side's happy back, Chen Yingxiong laughed twice. He seems to have become the idol of some players...

It feels good!

In the 23rd round of the league that followed, Martin O'Neal did not allow the team to rotate, but continued to use this lineup. This is the first time he has used the same lineup in two consecutive league rounds this season.

Facts proved that his change was correct. Liverpool defeated Aston Villa 3-1 at their home court.

Although Chen Yingxiong didn't score a goal, he assisted with two goals. Although the other goal was not counted as his assist, it was his shot that caused the goalkeeper to drop before his teammates scored.

He didn't score a goal this time, he was just bad luck, not in bad form.

Although he didn't score in two consecutive league rounds, it was his longest scoring drought of the season... But no one reported this because it was so boring.

Even if there were no goals in two consecutive league rounds, Chen Yingxiong had already scored 28 league goals, and the league had only started 23 rounds... In the face of such scoring efficiency, two league rounds did not score goals. Not worth mentioning at all!

On January 26, in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Liverpool drew a good sign. They played at home against Havant, the sixth-level league team, a true amateur team.

This time Martin O'Neal finally took a rotation and removed Chen Yingxiong and other main players. But even so, there is no suspense.

The opponent's strength is weaker than Luton, and Liverpool play at home.

It's impossible to be proud of the enemy anymore.

In the end, Liverpool defeated Havant 5-2 at home.

Advance to the fifth round of the FA Cup.

The FA Cup has reached the fifth round, Martin O'Neal can finally take a breath, and then continue to rotate in the FA Cup. Anyway, the FA Cup allows the youth team and reserve team players to play. Whatever they can play next is what they are like. He will not give the players any goals and pressure. If the team really breaks in accidentally In the finals, then go all out to fight for a final, and try to get a champion first to stabilize your position.

After playing the FA Cup, the next thing is the league game.

In the twenty-fourth round of the league, Liverpool challenged Swansea away. The final result was 1:0 and Liverpool won.

The only person who scored a goal for the team was Chen Yingxiong!

He finally ended his "two-round league goal drought."

However, Chen Yingxiong's mind is no longer in the league.

Because in half a month, the Europa League will start again.

It was a knockout journey to the championship.

Liverpool drew Atletico Madrid.

This is not an opponent that can be dealt with casually.

If Chen Yingxiong wants to achieve his goal, he must first eliminate Atletico Madrid.

It is worth mentioning that last season's Europa League once ushered in the Premier League duo of Manchester United and Manchester City in the knockout stage, and this season's Europa League also ushered in a strong team-Inter Milan.

The Serie A giants were assigned to the dead group in the Champions League and then eliminated in the group stage.

The former Triple Crown has now fallen to the point of playing the Europa League, which is really embarrassing.

However, the arrival of Inter Milan means that Chen Yingxiong's road to winning the championship is not smooth, and I don't know when he will meet the giant Inter Milan.

But Chen Yingxiong did not take this matter to heart. Because he is not afraid of Inter Milan at all, he has more victories against Inter Milan and has always had a psychological advantage.

I haven't seen him for two years. I wonder if Inter Milan will be a little bit psychologically shadowed after seeing him?

If Inter Milan recovers from the scar and forgets the pain, he doesn't mind reminding the other party...

When Chen Yingxiong thinks of the Europa League championship, when he thinks of the goal he set for himself, he can't help but get excited, and hopes that the knockout stage will start immediately.

He wants to surprise the whole world!
