Chapter 226 Gerald's Little 99
As an attacking midfielder, Gerrard's advantages and strengths are not in organization and passing.In other words, the captain of the Red Army prefers to use his mobility to attack the opponent's defense line and follow the striker to attack with heavy artillery.

Compared with Lampard, Gerrard's long-range heavy artillery is more powerful and more entertaining.

Lampard was only firmly established as the main force of the Blues last season, but Gerrard is already known for his long-range shots.

Hearing the word "mountain top", Tang Wu's face showed a little embarrassment.

In that game, it was Tang Wu who assisted his teammates to score the fastest goal in the Premier League last season.And Gerrard and his Liverpool are the background board of this goal.

"That's all in the past!" Gerrard laughed. "If Tom came to Liverpool, we wouldn't have that kind of ball!"

Seeing Gerald's smiling eyes, Tang Wu always felt a cool breeze behind him.

"I'm afraid this is not your goal?" Hyypia revealed the shortcoming of his teammates, "Why do I think you are more eager for TOM's long pass!"

As soon as Hypia finished speaking, Gerald's smile paused immediately, as if someone had punctured his mind.

"No, no, I won't ask TOM." The next second later, Gerrard once again put on the expression of indifference before, shaking his head and denying it.

"I can pass you the ball!"

Before Gerrard finished speaking, Tang Wu on the side spoke.

"Captain Steven, although your position is relatively central, I think it will be easy to pass to you."

"Really?" Gerald suddenly grabbed Tang Wu's hands, his face full of anticipation, "Are you sure you can see me?"

Hey, didn't you still look indifferent just now, why did you change your face in an instant?

"Ah? Haha, of course I can see it." Tang Wugan laughed twice, "But Captain Steven, whether you can catch the ball or not depends on your ability."

Lampard and Gerrard are both midfielders, but Gerrard is closer to the center.Therefore, Gerrard will probably have one or more defenders around him when he makes a long pass from the backcourt. If he imagines Lampard catching the ball and getting rid of turning to shoot, it will be much more difficult.

"That's not a problem! As long as you can see me, just pass the ball to me!" Gerrard couldn't think of anything else at this time. The scene of Tang Wu and Lampard directly breaking the goal of the Gunners is still vivid. In the eyes.The Red Army captain wonders all the time whether he would do better if he stood in Lampard's position.

After the three of them discussed the tactical skills of the teams and the small cooperation between the players, Gerrard said sincerely: "TOM, I bet that after joining Liverpool at your level, you will quickly capture the fans. And your arrival will also bring Liverpool to a higher level and one step closer to the championship. To be honest, I am looking forward to fighting side by side with you."

"Me too." Hypia also extended his hand and shook Tang Wu.

Without waiting for Tang Wu to express his opinion, Gerrard continued: "Maybe Liverpool is not the strongest and biggest team in the Premier League, but it is definitely the most united team in the Premier League. All the people who come here are working together for one goal, that is the championship." And as the captain, I will work with the coaches and club management to maintain and create such a good atmosphere. So in this regard, you don’t have to worry.”

"Thank you for your invitation, Captain Steven." Tang Wu held Gerrard's hand, "I have already deeply felt the sincerity of Liverpool and you."

Hyypia is a veteran of Liverpool, but he still handed over the captain's armband to Gerrard last season.Now that the relationship between the old and new captains of the Red Army is so harmonious, by extension, there will be no extreme conflicts in the Red Army's locker room.

This is extremely important to Tang Wu.After all, no one wants to be "bullied" by old players after coming to a new team.

After bidding farewell to Gerrard, Benitez and others one after another, Tang Wu directly took a car to John Lennon Airport and left Liverpool by flight.

Back in London, Raiola asked on the phone: "How is it, how does it feel?"

"Do I have any other options?" Tang Wu laughed, "Not bad, at least a little better than I imagined."

"That's good!" Raiola also smiled, "From the current point of view, Liverpool is the most suitable place for you."

"That's all up to you."

"No problem, I will definitely help you negotiate a big contract!"

Hearing Raiola's "smirk", Tang Wu shrugged helplessly. It seems that this "vampire" is about to "take all" from both sides again.

But so what?
Since I can't beat Chelsea's "superstar", then change to another place and make myself a superstar!

On August 8, the draw for the group stage of the 27-04 UEFA Champions League was announced in Monte Carlo, Monaco.The four teams in the Premier League were quite lucky, and they each drew a good lottery.

Manchester United's opponents in Group D are Ligue [-] champions Lyon, Czech Republic's Sparta Prague and Turkey's Fenerbahce.

Manchester United CEO David Gill, who participated in the draw ceremony, was also very happy with the result of the draw, "I think we got the lottery, and I believe Sir Alex Ferguson will be very happy."

In Group E, Arsenal were drawn with Panathinaikos, PSV Eindhoven and Rosenborg.

Arsenal agent Danny Fisherman, who participated in the draw ceremony, was very happy to avoid the Serie A team. "In the second draw pot, there were 8 Italian teams. We did not draw with them. Nothing unpleasant."

PSV Eindhoven, the only threat to the Gunners in Group E, has lost two top players on the front line, and everyone knows that the fastest goal in the Champions League was the 02-03 season. The goal scored by Berto Silva 20 seconds later.

In Group H, the biggest highlight is that Chelsea won last season's Champions League champion Porto.Facing his old club, Mourinho did not make any statement.

But the strength of the current Porto team is quite different from a few months ago. Deco joined Barcelona, ​​Ferreira and Carvalho followed Mourinic to Stamford Bridge, plus two Brazilian stars Delle and Diego is both injured and will most likely not be able to play in the first round. Porto's strength has been greatly reduced.

The other two teams are Paris Saint-Germain and CSKA Moscow. After Ronaldinho moved to Barcelona, ​​Paris has not laughed for a long time.

As for Liverpool's Group A, they ran into Deportivo, Monaco and Olympiacos.

Benitez's first reaction when the group was announced was that the strength of this group is relatively average. Since it is average, it will inevitably evolve into a "death group".

"Monaco and Deportivo are not easy to play. Olympiacos is a frequent visitor to the Champions League and they have a lot of experience in the Champions League."

"We avoided the big clubs, but the big clubs are not necessarily the best, as we saw in the Champions League and UEFA Cup last season."

That's right, last season's Champions League semi-finals Liverpool met two at once, and now no one dares to underestimate Deportivo and Monaco.

Moreover, on September 9th, Liverpool's opponent in the first Champions League group match was Monaco. No one can forget the massacre of Monaco's 15-8 victory over Deportivo at home last season.

CEO Rick Parry seemed to be "reasonable". When facing the media, he smiled and said: "The important thing is that we have returned to the Champions League!"
