Chapter 1248 You Have Been a Teacher
After Chen Yingxiong played the Master League for several days, he felt that he should go to Van Basten to continue training.

But when he entered the training copy and saw Van Basten, Basten seemed a little surprised.

"What else are you doing here, hero?"

Basten's words stunned Chen Yingxiong.

"I'm here to train." Chen Yingxiong didn't understand why Basten asked this question.

Could it be that he thought he was addicted to the "Master League" and didn't come to practice with him?

Unexpectedly, what Van Basten said next surprised him even more.

"Why are you here to train? You're already out, hero!"

"Huh?" After being stunned for a long time, Chen Yingxiong pointed to himself and said, "I'm a teacher? Why did I become a teacher? I just practiced shooting well!"

"That's right, you can be a teacher after you have almost practiced shooting." Basten said.

"This...isn't that simple?"

Seeing Chen Yingxiong's confused look, Basten laughed: "Do you still remember what you learned from me?"

"Uh, let me think about it... By the way, it's playing football with your brain."

"Yeah, if I have to teach you every single movement, is it still called playing football with your own brain?" Basten asked back.

Chen Yingxiong shook his head: "That can't be counted."

"Yes, there is actually nothing to teach this thing. As long as you master the basic movements of stopping the ball and shooting, it will come naturally. You have also stopped a lot of balls in the past two years. When you are in When you encounter a similar situation in the actual game, you know how to deal with it, right?"

Chen Yingxiong nodded. His current score has increased significantly, which has a lot to do with his better stop than before.In the penalty area, where every inch of land is contested, stopping the ball by yourself can save a second or two, and this time is enough to complete a shot by yourself.

"Isn't it the same for shooting?" Basten spread his hands. "You have also done a lot of shooting exercises. When you encounter various problems in the actual game, your good foundation will allow you to make the most appropriate moves. Play with your brain, and you will actually learn Choose the most appropriate way to handle the ball, not the best-looking, or the most fancy moves. As long as you can send the football into the goal, even if your movements are embarrassing, so what? You score, the opponent is unlucky Now, you can cheer as much as you want."

Hearing Basten's words, Chen Yingxiong suddenly realized that it was so!
It turns out that I have unknowingly learned to play football with my brain!
I have never lacked inspiration. What I lack is actually the foundation.Thanks to the training he received as a child, his foundation was not solid.He had to continue to lay a solid foundation after entering professional football.Fortunately, there is such a training system, otherwise I would have finished playing.

Now that my foundation has been solidified, I can do whatever I want in the game.

When it's time to shoot, I shoot. When I don't want to shoot, I can choose other ways.In short, choose the most reasonable, not the best-looking and coolest way.

Seeing the change in Chen Yingxiong's expression, Basten knew he had realized it.

"So I have nothing to teach you now, hero."

Chen Yingxiong came back to his senses, and he asked Basten, "But I still have to train."

"Huh?" It was Basten's turn to be surprised this time. "Why? You have already graduated from the teacher."

"I'm afraid that if I don't practice for a long time, my feet will become dull again." Chen Yingxiong said, pointing to his feet. "So I still have to practice, but the practice time is not as long as before."

Basten smiled: "You are right, hero. Any skill is acquired through continuous practice and needs to be consolidated through continuous practice. Well, let's start today's practice."

After the game against Manchester City, it is the Champions League group stage.

So some media also said that O'Neal replaced Chen Yingxiong in preparation for the next Champions League group stage.

But in fact, it has nothing to do with the Champions League group stage.

In the Champions League, Liverpool has already qualified ahead of schedule, and their status as the number one in the group is basically gone.

What is there to prepare for?

O'Neal has considered allowing more substitute players to get playing opportunities.

In this game against Fiorentina at home, Liverpool will have to rotate.

Agger replaced Skrtel in the start. This is his first start after recovering from injury. Before that, he came off the bench at most.A healthy Agger is very important to Liverpool, and his comeback makes Liverpool's defense less stretched.

At the same time Thornton replaced Enrique and Glenn Johnson replaced Van der Wiel.Many substitutions were made in midfield, with Gerrard resting, Charlie Adam on, and Lucas replacing Inle as a midfielder.Götze started, Suarez replaced Gareth Bale and Sanchez was replaced by Adam Johnson.

The person at the front is Chen Yingxiong, and this position has not been changed.

Now that Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness is fine, Martin O'Neill has no reason to rotate him.

Except for goalkeeper Reina, center Chen Yingxiong and center back Pepe, almost all of them have been replaced.

But such Liverpool is still very strong.

That was the result of Liverpool general manager Niang flying around the world this summer.

The thickness of Liverpool's bench has been enhanced, and Martin O'Neill also appears to be able to do a job with ease in the face of a dense schedule.

Such a lineup finally defeated the visiting Fiorentina with a score of 2:0 at home, and performed quite well.

Martin O'Neill praised the team's performance at the press conference after the game.

He attaches great importance to this game, because it has tested the quality of the team's rotation.With this performance, he is full of confidence in the future of the team.

Although Chen Yingxiong didn't score in this game, both of Liverpool's goals were related to him, and he assisted them.

Now Chen Yingxiong is tied for first place in the UEFA Champions League scorer list with Cristiano Ronaldo. Both of them have six goals. Messi ranks third with four goals. Bayern Munich's center Mario Gomez has five goals. The ball ranks second.

The performances of the superstars are not bad, and there will definitely be a fierce competition for the Champions League scorer list this season.

With five wins and five wins and [-] points, Liverpool also won the first place in the group ahead of schedule. The next round of the match against Olympiacos has completely lost its meaning.

This team, which was very active in the transfer market this summer, finally showed its fangs and sharp teeth towards Europe.

For Liverpool, the Champions League group stage has ended early, and then they can shift their focus to the league.

Playing well in the league is the top priority.

The official goal of the season is to defend the league title.If you want to completely defeat rival Manchester United, you have to successfully defend the league title.If Manchester United still snatch it in the end, then last season's league title will be meaningless.It does not mean that Liverpool will be revived.Because in the history of the Premier League for more than 20 years, many teams have won the championship, but only Manchester United and Chelsea have defended the championship.It is precisely by virtue of the defending champion that Chelsea has become the most reckless force in English football in one fell swoop, and has become one of the giants. Since then, no one has said that they are upstarts.

Liverpool also need the defending champions.

The defending champion is a signal to others that "we have the ability to get the championship we want".Announcing the establishment of his own status made the entire English football world dare not ignore himself.

Because if you win the championship once, many people will think that you are just lucky.

But if you can defend the championship, it's not just "good luck" that can be explained.Once by chance, what about twice?In football, that is inevitable.

Just like the French national team at the time, after they won the World Cup in the 98 World Cup, many people felt that they were just relying on the host's interests, not really capable, and to be honest, they won that World Cup The history of the team is indeed not very convincing... But when they won the European Cup two years later and broke the curse of "World Cup winners cannot win the European Cup", many people's perceptions changed. The French team was already the strongest team at the time, and they were the overlords of world football.Although the European Cup and the World Cup are not related to defending the title, they have the same meaning, and both have won two major competitions in a row.

Give another example.

After Nottingham Forest won the League One title and the Champions League title in a row as a newly promoted team, everyone felt that this team was surprisingly lucky, because the team they defeated in the Champions League final was from Malmö, Sweden. It's not a strong team, the two teams are just trying to pick out the general from among the dwarfs and choose the one that's not that bad.But when they defeated Keegan's Bundesliga powerhouse Hamburg in the Champions League final a year later, the situation was different.Not only is the outside world acknowledging that they are a strong team, but they are also full of confidence. Since then, they have started their glorious journey in the 80s. In the era of Manchester United's decline, they competed with Liverpool and became the mainstream of English football in that era.

Therefore, defending a championship is very important.

Whether it's the league title or the Champions League.As long as you can defend your title, you will be able to seal the mouths of those "luck".Tell them that this is genuine strength!
Liverpool want to defend the league title, and now they are only four points ahead of Manchester United, which is absolutely not enough.Opponents like Manchester United are really careless. If you are not careful, you may be caught by them, and there will be no leftovers left.

The next Merseyside derby with Everton is an opportunity for Liverpool to grab points.
