After the game with Norwich, Liverpool became the focus of the topic on the Internet.

No one would have thought that Liverpool was tied again after they seemed to regain their form at the 5-0 Genke Football Club.

If it is justifiable to be tied by Manchester United last time, it is hard to be reconciled to being tied by Norwich now.Many fans said that Liverpool's best goal this season is no longer the defending champion, but the top four.

In fact, looking at the standings, we know that Manchester City, ranked first, has 22 points in one game less than Liverpool, and Manchester United in second has 7 points. In contrast, Liverpool only scored [-] points in one more game. Five points, ranked No.[-] in the standings.

However, when the Manchester derby ended, the topic of Liverpool quickly cooled down, and a famous saying became popular on the Internet-"WHYALWAYSME (Why is it always me?)"

This sentence comes from Manchester City striker Balotelli.

Levi also knew this happened in history, so after the game, he was still interested in going to Manchester, not far from Liverpool, to watch this famous derby.

On Saturday night, Balotelli set off fireworks at his home.Children know that fireworks should be set off in an open place, and Bashen, who does not believe in evil, burned down the villa worth 300 million pounds.For this reason, the Manchester City Fire Department dispatched two fire trucks to put out the fire, and it turned out that it only burned the bathroom. Even so, Balotelli had to compensate the landlord 40 pounds.

It is worth mentioning that Sunday is the Manchester derby.

Many people think that Balotelli was in a bad state during the derby. He set fire at home in the early hours of the night, and ended up having to move to a hotel in the middle of the night.After experiencing so many things, coupled with lack of sleep, the state of mind must be greatly affected.It may not even be possible to play in the derby.

However, the result was that everyone's glasses fell to the ground.

Balotelli started, not only did he start, he scored the first goal of the game.

In the 20th minute of the game, Milner passed back from the left side of the penalty area. David Silva missed the first point. Balotelli stabbed the far corner of the goal with his right foot. The young De Gea had nothing to do about it.

After scoring the first goal, Balotelli showed his ability to become an internet celebrity again. He didn't run or celebrate. He stood on the ground and slowly raised his jersey expressionlessly. At this time, people could see his inner lining clearly. The sentence above: WHYALWAYSME (why always me).

Levi, who was at the scene, also stood up and applauded Balotelli for a rare occasion.

His move was also captured by the broadcast camera.

At the end of the game, Bashen scored twice and Manchester City won a historic victory, 6:1 Manchester United.

这是曼联自1999年客负切尔西以来的最惨痛失利，也是自1961年2月足总杯主场2比7负于谢联以来的主场最惨痛失利，也是自1955年0比5负于曼城以来的德比最惨痛失利。

At the end of the game, Ferguson's face was already a little red, and he was so angry that he almost became Guan Gong.

After this game, Manchester City also expanded their lead over Manchester United. They accumulated 25 points, while Manchester United accumulated [-] points and Liverpool accumulated [-] points. This is really an interesting gap. The difference between the teams is five points.

And after the game, Li Wei was inevitably whipped out by the media. Now Liverpool is [-] points away from the leader Manchester City!And now it's just nine rounds of the season!In other words, only a quarter of the league has passed, and Liverpool has already been opened up by Manchester City.

Levi did not criticize the newspapers and the media because of this. He needs to do many things, including the introduction of a phenomenal central defender.

The biggest problem for Liverpool now is actually the defensive problem. Because of the poor defense, Levi had to let the midfielders reduce their forward penetration.Although Liverpool's forward players are very capable of individual combat, no matter how strong they are, it is impossible to stage a single-handed breakthrough every game, right?
After lacking support from the midfield, Liverpool's trident offense became unstable.

They need to rely more on their own state to determine Liverpool's offense. When they are in a good state, they can 5-0 Everton and Genk Football Club.When the state is not good, they can 1:1 Norwich City, or 0:1 Stoke City.

…………

In the middle of the week, it is not the Champions League that greets Liverpool this time, but the League Cup.

The opponent is Stoke City, who beat them 0:1 in the league.

Before the game, Stoke City coach Tony Pulis said confidently: "We have successful experience, and the playing field is also very strong for us!"

The League Cup is played at the Britannia Stadium, home of Stoke City.

At this time, Stoke City still has the nickname of Sky City, and their home stadium is also designed for their characteristics.

What is the city in the sky?
Because Stoke City play long balls and like to head the ball, they have the highest height in the Premier League.In this season, Stoke City's average height is 1.8 meters seven!
Stoke City's long pass is not only relying on feet, but also relying on hands.They have the famous grenade expert Irish midfielder Delap, who is famous for his throw-ins.

Stoke City's 2008:2 victory over Arsenal in the 1 season was the pinnacle of his career!He relied on his hands in this battle and contributed two assists.

Even the javelin expert made a joke about Delap: If he had joined the javelin instead of football.He must be the greatest athlete in the world.

In order to maximize their advantages, Stoke City's home stadium Britannia will sprinkle a lot of water during the game, which will make it difficult for the team to control the football under their feet.In addition to the water, the turf is relatively long, which is not conducive to the performance of teams who are good at playing ground football at the Britannia Stadium.

And these are the sources of confidence for Stoke City manager Tony Pulis.

Levy did not have a pre-match war of words with Stoke City coach Tony Pulis, he only expressed it indifferently in the pre-match press conference. "As long as Liverpool do a good job defensively, the team in the world that can beat Liverpool will definitely not include Stoke City."

On October 26, Li Wei continued to perform only a small rotation in the League Cup.

Mattia Palin continues to serve as the starting goalkeeper.

Right back Flanagan, center back Varane partner Stones, left back Felipe Luiz.

Midfielder Gerrard started again, but in this game Levi only set Gerrard as a single midfielder.Moussa Sissoko played on the right and Henderson on the left.

For the first time on the front line, Levi did not allow both forwards to go against their feet. The left-footed Griezmann served as the left forward, the right-footed Suarez served as the right forward, and the center forward was the tall Benteke.

Seeing this formation, many commentators exclaimed. "Looks like Liverpool are going to go back to basics and play long balls."

In fact, when the game started, it proved that the commentator's guess was not wrong.

Not only did the two wingers take turns to pass from the bottom, but the midfielders Moussa Sissoko and Henderson often made crosses to the edge of the penalty area.

Benteke's header is quite good. In the No.304 minute, Benteke made a contribution.

Suarez made a cross, Benteke headed the goal, but the first attack was blocked by the goalkeeper, but then Benteke stretched his foot to complete the supplementary shot and scored.

Liverpool 1:0 Stoke City!

But Stoke City is still very good. In No. 404 minutes, they completed the equalizer.

Delap sent the ball in high and high, and Crouch overpowered Varane with a header.

Stoke City 1:1 Liverpool.

However, in the second half, Levi changed, Henderson went off, and Levi replaced Klose.

Griezmann and Suarez switched to full-backs, and Liverpool changed to 4-4-2. There were two good headers in front of Benteke and Klose. After taking turns to deliver ammunition from the side, in 4 minutes, Felipe Luis passed the ball from the side to find Klose. The German did not choose to head the ball. Instead, he licked the ball and sent the football to the left edge of the penalty area. Suarez followed up with a powerful long-range shot .

The goalkeeper of Stoke City didn't expect that Klose chose to ferry the ball instead of heading the ball. In addition, there were a lot of people in Stoke City in the penalty area. When he found the football, the football had passed through the crowd and killed In front of the door, it was too late to fight again.

Liverpool 2:1 Stoke City.

Later, Li Wei replaced Benteke with Bell and played a defensive counterattack.

No.804 minutes, Liverpool sealed the victory, Bell received a through ball from Gerrard, dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area and scored a goal.

3: 1.

At the post-match press conference, Li Wei said: "Compared with the unskilled tactics of long pass and lob, I actually prefer pass and control football. The reason why I chose long pass today is actually to show some The arrogant coach will pass on his experience, what is called a long pass."

The Stoke City coach Tony Pulis next to him was furious, but he couldn't refute it. Football is very simple, the winner is king!First is first, second is nothing!

As long as Li Wei wins the ball, his attack tactics against Tony Pulis are not as good as his, and no one can refute that, the facts speak louder than words.

In the end, Stoke City coach Tony Pulis could only express his indignation. "Li Wei is indeed very good, but compared to his coaching ability, I think he should respect his predecessors! When I was still coaching, he was still using diapers!"
