Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 817 Asking for Privileges
Liverpool successfully won the English League Cup in the 2015-2016 season!

After winning the championship, a black guy named Bonner became the focus of the media. He was a lucky guy who was able to take a photo with the Liverpool generals and got Situ Yunbing to sign his jersey. At the same time, the outside world also saw Situ Yun Bing warm side.

Manchester City was beaten a little bit in this defeat.

And the worst thing for them is that three days later, they have a guest at Anfield to challenge Liverpool!
It was the 28th round of the Premier League.

Manchester City has been in a paradoxical atmosphere since before the start of the season.

Since Fleet Street revealed that Guardiola would come to Manchester City from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2016, everyone knew that Pellegrini had lost the trust of Manchester City's top management.

But Pellegrini wants to grab the last straw and win the championship this season to win the chance to stay.

Most of the time he encourages the team, but the effect will be greatly reduced, because some players, especially those who have not got enough playing time, no longer support him in their hearts, but look forward to the arrival of Guardiola, Even if it is not certain whether the new coach will appreciate him when he arrives, it is better than being sure that he has no chance under Pellegrini.

When Manchester City wins, the team still looks ambitious, but when Manchester City loses, most people will have a feeling of "as expected".

After all, Pellegrini can't control the aircraft carrier of Manchester City. Whether it is his ability or experience, he may not be an outstanding player in the game of giants.

As the season progressed, Manchester City fell behind in the league more and more seriously, and when they were getting farther and farther away from Liverpool, the depression in the hearts of Manchester City's players had reached its limit.

Because Pellegrini is very easy-going, at least he is not the kind of iron-fisted coach, so the players don't trust him at best, but they don't have to turn against him to freeze the relationship.

It's just that this mentality makes it easier for players to muddle through this season.

As long as they don't fall out of the top four in the league, as long as they don't experience a catastrophic defeat, then they will be fine.

The defeat in the League Cup final was an even heavier psychological blow to the players.

They followed Pellegrini's tactical arrangement, but after the game, all parties on Fleet Street criticized Pellegrini for his tactical mistakes, lagging on-the-spot command, lack of courage and courage, etc., which made Manchester City players collectively criticize Pellegrini Rini was so disappointed!

They worked hard in the game, otherwise there would not be a 25-minute tie with Liverpool, and there would be no performance beyond expectations in the second half when they were hit on the counter and conceded only one goal.

Regardless of the long-term competition in the league or the single-game final, Pellegrini has completely lost the hearts of the people, and the record proves everything!
At the pre-match press conference, Fleet Street was aggressive and asked Pellegrini several times whether he would take the blame and resign. Pellegrini was a little bit embarrassed.

There is no expectation that Manchester City will be able to snipe Liverpool in the league.

Because Manchester City has been a guest at Anfield 13 times in the past, and only got a record of 5 draws and 8 losses!

Because since 1981, Manchester City has visited Anfield 27 times and only won 1 victory!
It can be said that Liverpool has a devastating advantage over Manchester City at home!

Before the game, Situ Yunbing didn't get into trouble with Pellegrini. He said that the team now needs to balance the status of the players in the team as much as possible and make reasonable use of them.

The season has come to the most critical stage!

The good news for Liverpool is that the lead in the league is huge, and the League Cup battle has also come to an end.

Then the FA Cup and the Champions League are the battlefields that Liverpool need to pay more attention to.

On March 3, Liverpool played against Manchester City at Anfield.

The starting players of the two teams have hardly changed. Manchester City just arranged Sterling and Mahrez into the starting lineup.

Liverpool will continue to use the starting lineup of the League Cup final.

From the beginning of the game, Situ Yunbing sat on the coach's bench to watch the game.

Liverpool, whose morale has been boosted just after winning the championship, played extremely strongly at home.

The state of Manchester City is extremely poor!
Can't even play some wonderful cooperation!
They look like a mess of loose sand!
It may be that their players' doubts about Pellegrini have been made public, resulting in no one willing to listen to Pellegrini's formation, and no one is willing to implement it, because it seems to have been proved to be useless .

As a result, Manchester City's players fought on their own on the court, and when they attacked, it counted wherever they played, without any rules at all.

Liverpool easily surrounded them in defence.

Constantly threatening Manchester City's defense through offense, in the 23rd minute of the game, Coutinho's wonderful pass from the front of the penalty area found Gareth Bale who cut inside, and the latter pushed from a small angle on the right rib of the penalty area The ball was sent into the bottom right corner of the goal!

Liverpool go first at home!
Only 10 minutes later, Coutinho cut into the left side of the penalty area in the left half of the frontcourt in cooperation with Robertson and Lewandowski's triangular pass. The ball was sent into the upper right corner of the goal!

Liverpool won two cities in a row!
Coutinho's form is off the charts today!
Before the end of the first half, it was Coutinho who received Azpilicueta's pass in the forward drive again, and a light pass passed the ball to Lewandowski to score a goal , The Polish center did not disappoint his teammates' efforts, and calmly shot past Caballero's ten fingers.

Liverpool lead by three goals!
The game lost its suspense in the first half.

Pellegrini looked disheartened.

No one would sympathize with him.

Because Manchester City has not had any infighting similar to Mancini and Carlos Tevez in his three seasons of coaching, the strength of the team's overall lineup is obvious to all, and they can be on par with Liverpool.

De Bruyne, Aguero, Yaya Toure, Silva, Sterling, just this set of offensive combination in the midfield, looking at European football, 99% of the teams will be very envious.

But Manchester City has quit the league early again and again, and there is no obvious breakthrough in the Champions League, so it is difficult to say what Pellegrini has brought to Manchester City. People's evaluation of him may be more delayed by him. Manchester City for three years.

Because you can hardly see how much improvement and improvement Manchester City has made compared to the season when Mancini got out of get out of get out of class, let alone the current lineup is much stronger than it was then!
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Situ Yunbing made substitutions early to avoid excessive consumption of players.

Manchester City really created some threats through chaotic battles. Sterling made a strong cross from the wing and made Coulibaly a clearance error. Aguero seized the opportunity to shoot the ball into Liverpool's goal.

Although the score was rewritten to 3:1, Manchester City's disadvantage is still obvious.

In the 67th minute of the game, Robertson assisted and went to the frontcourt to meet Henderson's pass, and then cooperated with Eriksson. After cutting into the left side of the penalty area, he knocked the ball back to the triangle, and Couty Neo didn't stop the ball and directly pushed the ball into the near corner of the goal!
Two passes and two shots!

Coutinho played an extremely brave state and statistics, shining in the audience!

Situ Yunbing sat on the coach's bench but fell into deep thought.

Coutinho's agent has recently contacted the Liverpool club, hoping that Situ Yunbing can give Coutinho a higher team status.

This kind of performance is first of all the guarantee of tactical status and playing time. That is to say, as long as Coutinho is in good physical condition, he should start. the bare minimum.

The implication is actually: If Liverpool cannot give such a guarantee, then Coutinho does not rule out finding another job!

Situ Yunbing can understand Coutinho's needs, but Situ Yunbing cannot give Coutinho such a "privilege".

Coutinho may play well in 90% of the games, but in 10% of the games he may be restricted to no effect, and even affect the team's overall defensive tactics, which is why some games, Situ Yunbing will make him a substitute, and Eriksson will start.

This kind of problem is not only in Coutinho. Even when Situ Yunbing coached Hamburg, De Bruyne did not have absolute privileges. was replaced.

The problems of technical players are always similar, either they do not have a big picture, or they are slack in defense, or their defensive ability is insufficient.

If the upper and lower limits of a player's performance are reflected in numerical values, then Coutinho is more flexible and Eriksson is less flexible.

Coutinho's upper limit may be 95, but the lower limit may be 30.
Eriksson may have a lower limit of 45 and an upper limit of only 90.
In terms of success, Coutinho is more likely to shine than Eriksson.

But if it is bad, the probability of Coutinho becoming a burden will be greater than that of Eriksson.

There is no such thing as a perfect player!
Whether Situ Yunbing is arranging troops or commanding on the spot, his thinking is always that tactics are greater than personnel selection.

A correct tactic requires players with different roles to serve. If a certain player is not needed in some special tactic, he will decisively put the player on the bench or replace him in the middle of the game.

This is his coaching principle, and because of this, he cannot give Coutinho any guarantees!
It can be said that among all the players in the Liverpool team, there are no more than 5 people who are qualified to ask Situ Yunbing such a request.

There are only Lewandowski and Gareth Bale on the front line, Casemiro in the midfield, Kanter does not need, because he is an indispensable role for the team.

There are only Azpilicueta and Robertson among the defenders.

Because their tactical adaptability is stronger and their strength is obvious to all, other players are either replaceable or unstable.
