Chapter 413 When will you leave Chelsea?(1/2)
Author: Ant who loves watching football
This duel at Anfield ended with Chelsea's 3:0 victory.
In the 80th minute of the second half, Hazard took a corner kick and captain John Terry hit a header in the penalty area, giving Chelsea another victory and locking the score at 3:0.
As a result, Chelsea has officially tied Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten record, and is only one game away from breaking this record!
Regarding this victory, Sky Sports guests were full of praise for Pan Yi, including Red Army star Carragher.
Everyone said that today was an eye-opener to see a team without full-backs playing such pleasing football.
Of course, Chelsea legend Zola, who has achieved the "light speed slap in the face", feels that his face is brighter and he feels that he has become more majestic.
Carragher put forward another point of view:
"Facts have proven that Pan Yi has integrated Chelsea into a strong whole. No matter what formation he uses, there will always be matching tactics that can bring out the players' abilities."
"This is a really scary thing. He can exclude all full-backs from the squad today, and he can exclude any forwards tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow there may be no midfielders?"
"That may be an exaggeration, but with Chelsea's first-team squad approaching 30 players, it doesn't feel like any injuries or suspensions can stop this team."
"We know that sometimes a team looks very strong, but often the team will hit a low point immediately after core players are injured or suspended."
"Some teams are even more unlucky, such as losing troops and generals in the same position continuously, resulting in no one available, and finally collapse."
"But in Pan Yi's Chelsea team, it seems that we will never see this situation."
"First of all, their physical training, recovery training, and medical system are all very developed. The players themselves can maintain high-intensity training and competition with few injuries;"
"Secondly, all Chelsea players are all-rounders who can play in multiple positions. Even if multiple people are injured in the same position, someone can still supplement them;"
"Finally, it's Pan Yi's tactical adaptability and diversity. Suppose today at Chelsea, Marcos Alonso, Azpilicueta, Cancelo, Ivanovic and others are all injured.
, and Pan Yi can also line up this seemingly weird lineup without full-backs and easily defeat a strong team like Liverpool."
"This also means that it is really difficult for anything to stop Pan Yi from moving forward. I also think that the seven-time championship slogan Pan Yi released before the season is definitely not a bragging, but a very practical one.
Target presentation…”
"Let me say this for Liverpool and Klopp, we are convinced that we lost."
As for Klopp's formation in this game, the guests did not think there was a big problem.
They could also see that the -1 that Liverpool ranked today was specifically used by Klopp to deal with Pan Yi, but how could they have imagined that they would face a strange formation that had never been seen in history?
Anyone else would be confused!
Therefore, the fault of losing such a high-end game is not Klopp's fault, it is really Pan Yi who is too cunning!
What's more, this is only the third Premier League game under Klopp's coaching of Liverpool. Under the premise that the personnel are retained by his predecessor and cannot be reinforced, to be honest, the game was pretty good on the scene.
Everyone also believes that given time, Klopp will be able to take this Liverpool team to a new level.
Obviously, Pan Yi thought so too.
Nonsense, as a time traveler, who doesn’t know that Klopp did lead Liverpool to regain the Champions League and Premier League titles?
Even if they fail to win the championship this season, Liverpool can still be competitive in the Premier League and Champions League.
If nothing else, FM players’ legs will tremble when they see Klopp’s Liverpool in the game!
After the game, Klopp also invited Pan Yi to have a drink, and Pan Yi naturally agreed because he was not going back to London until tomorrow anyway.
Then Klopp took Pan Yi to an old-fashioned cocktail bar on Duke Street in the city center, on the second floor of what looked like an 18th-century merchant's residence.
This bar is still very distinctive, with a gorgeous marble fireplace and 18th-century wooden floors, all equipped with soft lighting and comfortable furniture.
"Although I have only been here a few weeks, Rogers is a good person. He not only rented a house for me cheaply, but also introduced me to many good places." Klopp said with a smile.
Everyone knows that Liverpool's former head coach Rodgers is a famous uncle. He is so enthusiastic about his "current", which is a good talk.
This place is really good.
Pan Yi and Klopp were in a small private room. The surroundings were quiet and no one disturbed them. It was very suitable for friends to have a drink and chat.
The two chatted for a while, complaining about British food, the weather in London, etc. Klopp suddenly asked:
"I have a question that I'm curious about."
"What's the problem?" Pan Yi took a sip of the cocktail, which was quite delicious.
"Will you continue to manage Chelsea?"
"Oh?" Pan Yi stopped drinking and put the glass down, "Why do you ask?"
"I'm telling the truth, don't laugh at me." Klopp adjusted his glasses. "Liverpool has never won the Premier League championship, and it has been 25 years since it last won the top league championship. I am here.
, the primary goal is to lead the team to win this championship."
"Oh...then what does this have to do with me?" Pan Yi said with a smile, "If you want to get it, just go get it!"
"With your current dominance in the Premier League, I'm afraid..." Klopp said a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid even if I stay at Liverpool until I retire, I won't have much chance."
"Haha..." Pan Yi laughed.
This uncle scumbag is really scared of me.
"Although I don't want to admit it, you really crushed almost everyone tactically, including me." Klopp shook his head, "Your -1 today really shocked me. It turns out that the formation can be like this."
What's the matter? The use of players is even more amazing. I may be able to learn tactics like yours through research, but it's absolutely impossible for me to come up with one out of thin air."
"Tactical crushing does not necessarily mean winning the ball." Pan Yi said with a smile, "After all, the ball is still played by the players on the court."
"But all the players under your command will perform very well. Isn't this more amazing?" Klopp's head almost shook. "I really don't understand whether it is you who can recruit these good players, or whether it is you who can recruit these good players.
These players will become better when they join your team..."
"Maybe I'm lucky." Pan Yi said lightly.
"Don't be ridiculous." Klopp smiled bitterly, "You may be lucky in one season, but how long have you been undefeated and you are still lucky?"
Pan Yi thought for a while and said with a smile: "Well, I am indeed quite strong."
"..." Klopp was speechless for a while and then asked, "What about the question just now?"
Pan Yi said sternly: "I won't think about anything else for the time being until I win the seven-time crown."
"Do you really want seven crowns?" Klopp was a little surprised, but quickly calmed down.
Also, what's the point of a talented genius like Pan Yi not setting such a goal?
Everyone has won the Triple Crown two or three times!
According to the current momentum...
Chelsea has already won the European Super Cup and the Community Shield, and is also making rapid progress in the Premier League, League Cup, and Champions League. In addition to the FA Cup that has not yet started, and the Club World Cup to be held in December, it seems that no one can stop it.
Him.
"That's okay, I'll endure it any longer," Klopp said in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Pan Yi didn't hear clearly.
Klopp took the opportunity to chat about another topic: "Oh, I just want to ask, are there any players you don't want? Give me two."
"what type is it?"
"Winger, fast and good dribbler."
"This really doesn't exist."
There are certainly people in the Chelsea team who meet Klopp's requirements.
Gnabry, Mbappe, including Hazard, B seat, aren't they all like this?
Even Lukaku is a figure who can make soup from the sidelines.
But the problem is that these are Pan Yi's favorite generals, how could they be handed over to competitors?
"Hey." Klopp sighed.
In fact, Pan Yi understood it without him having to say it.
The mad dog style of play that Klopp later implemented in Liverpool required two strong wingers to support it, which can even be said to be the essence of this tactic.
However, neither Coutinho nor Lallana in Liverpool's current squad can meet this demand.
Pan Yi also knows that the upgrade of wingers is only part of Klopp's plan, or it is the beginning.
When Liverpool's lineup has truly taken shape and can dominate the Premier League and Champions League, today's lineup will probably only have a few players left, such as Firmino and Henderson.
"Looking at it this way, I'm going to Southampton to ask about Mane's price, or I'm going to Hamburg to see Salah." Klopp touched his stubble.
"Are you attracted to them?" Pan Yi couldn't help but also touched his chin.
These two were Klopp's tiger generals in the previous life, absolute heroes of the revival. It seems that it will be difficult to escape Klopp's "magic clutches" in this life.
But this is actually easy to understand. There are only so many useful wingers in the world that can be called world-class, plus those that meet Klopp’s relatively stringent tactical needs, minus a few particularly expensive ones (
Such as Bale, Neymar, etc.), there are actually only a few.
And in this life, Mane and Salah have the shining buff of "Pan Yi's old general". It's really hard not to attract attention.
It’s just that Mane has just transferred to Southampton this season, and Salah has actually talked with Liverpool but failed to reach an agreement, so Klopp initially wanted to see if Pan Yi’s Chelsea had something cheaper.
To be continued...
