Chapter 902 Premier League Battle of the Century!

Mbappe's goal shook the audience like a thunderbolt!

Everton's tight-fitting defense line seemed to have only this momentary flaw but was perfectly seized by Liverpool!

But Liverpool's tactical execution rate in the second half of the game was still very significant.

Continuously hit the left side and then suddenly shift the attack point.

Mbappe was more like a sneak attack, but it made Everton feel even more uncomfortable.

Their tenacious defense, except for this conceded goal, has hardly made any mistakes at other times.

Liverpool are also helpless against them in certain periods of time!
But this is football, 90 minutes may seem like a long time, but sometimes it only takes a few seconds to decide the outcome.

Situ Yunbing replaced him with Gareth Bale after Mbappe scored, allowing Mbappe to enjoy the applause of the Red Army fans.

Although looking at the data, Sane and Mbappe's performance this season is similar, and even in terms of comprehensiveness, Sane is better, but if you take a serious inventory, you will find that Mbappe's goals have higher gold content and importance!
In other words, Sane is the icing on the cake most of the time, but Mbappe plays the role of Mr. Key.

This performance made Situ Yunbing very satisfied with him.

Everton then made substitutions one after another in an attempt to turn the tables, but Liverpool had completely switched to a defensive position. In the 80th minute of the game, Everton had an excellent counterattack opportunity due to their heavy pressure.

Sane sent a diagonal pass from the side of the front field, and Gareth Bale made a quick cut from the right to complete the anti-offside and went to the meeting single-handedly!

But in the face of the attacking goalkeeper Stekelenburg, Gareth Bale kicked the ball away strangely!

Everton made a false alarm, and Situ Yunbing also saw that Gareth Bale's state still needed games to recover.

Van Dijk's performance after his return from injury can be reassuring. He is still the pinnacle of Liverpool's defense.

With a strong defense, Liverpool walked away with a 1-0 score at Goodison Park.

Although Liverpool's victory against Everton in previous years was either a big victory or a massacre, today's victory is indeed not so dazzling, but combined with the background and the current situation, it is not easy to win the game.

All 17 rounds of the Premier League are over, and Liverpool returns to the top of the list!
Liverpool, 44 points.

Chelsea, 42 points.

Arsenal, 37 points.

Manchester City, 36 points.

Tottenham, 32 points.

Manchester United, 29 points.

Christmas came, and on the second night after defeating Everton, Liverpool held a Christmas dinner, and Situ Yunbing went to the dinner alone.

Owner Henry and CEO Werner delivered New Year's speeches respectively. When looking forward to the new year, Henry naturally thanked the team for their hard work and great contributions, while Werner's tone became low-key.

Even if he is not a professional coaching team, after half a season of public opinion bombardment on Fleet Street, even Werner himself feels pessimistic when he wakes up early in the morning, as if the Red Army dynasty has entered dusk!
Compared with previous years' high-spirited and aggressive talk, Liverpool's argument this year is very low-key!

Situ Yunbing sat in the audience and listened to Werner's speech. Probably Werner himself realized that the effort that Liverpool needs to put in to move forward is geometrically multiplied!
It's not that they are unwilling to work hard, but that they have almost reached their limit!
It is very difficult to maintain the current results and stabilize Liverpool's position. If you are not careful, there will be an avalanche!
When Situ Yunbing took the stage to speak, he thanked the coaching staff for their hard work over the past year. For his New Year's outlook, the most frequent words in his speech were "unity" and "we are together!"

His speech won wild cheers from the audience. Whether it is the coach or the players, their admiration for Situ Yunbing is from the bottom of their hearts.

When getting along with him, it feels like he is just an ordinary person, but together they created the Red Army Empire!

Such an achievement is enough to convince everyone of Situ Yunbing, the godfather of the empire.

After the Christmas dinner in the team, on the second Christmas Eve, Situ Yunbing prepared a sumptuous meal at home, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law came to celebrate Christmas with them.

In addition to the warmth of the family, Han Yang also came to visit. Perhaps in this atmosphere, Han Yang's appearance was just right.

Because after all, Situ Yunbing has too deep a concept of Christmas and integrates into such a tradition.

Even Sigrid only understood, but couldn't deeply understand Situ Yunbing's true mood.

But Han Yang is different. People are living other people's traditional festivals in other places. At this time, there is no need to think too much. Friends can sit together and exchange glasses to enjoy the wine and chat.

After drinking three rounds and eating five flavors, Han Yang chatted with Situ Yunbing about Chinese football.

It's not a disappointment, after all, in the second half of 2016, Alonzo led the Chinese national team to the third stage of the World Cup qualifiers. After 5 games, it sounds good, and the Chinese team has not lost a single game.

But in fact, there are only 7 points, 1 win and 4 draws!
After solving the defensive problem, Alonzo faced the embarrassing situation where the team's goals were like constipation!

Only one Wu Lei can be used, but it is related to the important interests of qualifying for the World Cup. The princes in Asia are not fools. If Wu Lei is blocked, the Chinese team's counterattack will basically be dumb.

So Alonzo's headache now is how to improve the Chinese team's counterattack threat.

At the end of the chat, Situ Yunbing asked Han Yang why he wasn't married yet. Han Yang said that he didn't want to start a family so early. After being questioned by Situ Yunbing, he finally revealed the truth. Women are never trusted.

He also said conclusively that a man cheats a woman for a while, and a woman cheats a man for a lifetime!
Situ Yunbing couldn't express any opinions on this, after all, he didn't have a lot of emotional experience.

On the evening of Boxing Day, Situ Yunbing led Liverpool to host Stoke City at home.

Maybe Stoke City thought that Liverpool would face Manchester City in the next round, and at the same time Liverpool was not as good as them in terms of physical fitness, so after coming to Anfield, they unexpectedly showed the courage to kill the king, attacking fiercely in the away game!
This may be the best gift Situ Yunbing has received in the New Year!
Liverpool took a three-goal lead at Anfield in just 30 minutes!

Eriksson, Henderson, and Robertson successively sent through balls or over-the-top balls. Sane, Vardy, and Mbappe rushed into the hinterland behind Stoke City's defense line and scored easily. Or send a nanny ball assist.

After Liverpool's three-goal lead, Stoke City felt hopeless again.

It seems that their explanation to the fans is: Look, we have tried hard, but we can't beat it!

Then just end the game early and go to the festival!

The Red Army fans in the stands of Anfield Stadium cheered for the team's victory in a cheerful atmosphere!

In the end, the Red Army won Stoke City 4:0 at home!
After failing to win the Boxing Day battle for two consecutive years, the Red Army can finally give fans a satisfying New Year gift in this traditional New Year festival!

After the game, Situ Yunbing returned to the locker room and said to all the players: "We performed well today. I also know that everyone wants to indulge and celebrate Christmas, but we will play against Manchester City at home in three days. I don't want to sweep you away. We are happy, but we must recover our physical fitness and state as soon as possible, and strive to perform well in the next round of the league!

So I don't want anyone to go to the nightclub, and I see the news of someone causing trouble outside, please be good! "

The players couldn't help laughing, but they all absolutely valued Situ Yunbing's request in their hearts.

After leaving the stadium, they went back to their respective homes, enjoying the warm time of Christmas with their families at home, and then recharging their energy and waiting for the final game of the first half of the Premier League!
The Boxing Day battle was unprecedented in the Premier League!
Liverpool beat Stoke City 4-0 at home!
Chelsea beat Bournemouth 3-0 at home!
Arsenal beat West Brom 1-0 at home!
Manchester City beat Hull City 3-0 away!
Tottenham beat Southampton 4:1 away!

Manchester United defeated Sunderland 3:1 at home!

The top six in the Premier League standings all win!
Liverpool, 47 points.

Chelsea, 45 points.

Arsenal, 40 points.

Manchester City, 39 points.

Tottenham, 35 points.

Manchester United, 32 points.

When Liverpool scored 18 points in 47 league rounds, Fleet Street seemed to have no confidence to slander Liverpool, because now Liverpool's points have shown that they are not worse than previous years!

But the competitive situation is still so fierce, it can only show that the performance of other teams has improved!
You must know that at this time last year, Chelsea were only less than 6 points above the relegation zone!
All eyes are on, Anfield on the last day of 2016 will be staged by Fleet Street as the "Premier League Battle of the Century" final game!
When the Spanish national derby has become the derby that attracts the attention of the world for many years in a row, the English derby in the Premier League is getting worse every year!
All because of the decline of Manchester United!
But when Guardiola coached Manchester City, Manchester City seemed to have all the conditions to end the Liverpool dynasty!
Top coaches, a luxurious lineup, the desire for championships, and the club's continued large-scale investment!

Situ Yunbing VS Guardiola!

In the UEFA Champions League in the past ten years, Situ Yunbing has won five championships, and Guardiola has won the top twice.

In terms of honors, these two coaches have received the most honors in the past ten years!
And their encounter is bound to attract worldwide attention, not to mention that the confrontation between Liverpool and Manchester City, the new enemies, is also full of highlights.

If you want to write the history of Manchester City, in the history of the most recent period, someone will definitely write that at the beginning of the 2012-2013 season, Mancini led Manchester City to be bloodbathed by Liverpool, which became a major shame for Manchester City as the defending champion. At the same time, it also directly determined that Manchester City will miss the crown and Mancini will be dismissed from get out of class sadly!

Now, can Guardiola's arrival change all this?

When Conte wants to regain Chelsea's lost dignity, what Guardiola shoulders is to regain the glory of Manchester City!
