Green Ace Marshal

In an interview after the game, Situ Yunbing downplayed the negative impact of the end of the winning streak and commented on the performance of the game.

"In the first half we acted like an irritated bull, blindly teased by our opponents, while in the second half we were rational beasts, bringing enough aggressiveness and pressure to our opponents. If we give us a few more minutes, Maybe we can stage a big reversal."

There is no lack of such upsets in the Premier League. If you only look at the details, Liverpool will pay for their poor performance in the first half. If you look at it from a macro perspective, there is nothing to regret about the opening of the season with 9 wins and 1 draw.

Just treat it as usual.

But the top coach must strive for excellence. If the problem is discovered in time, it must be resolved. A wound cannot be turned into an abscess. Scraping the bone may be considered good at that time. If the strong man has to break his wrist, the impact will be huge. .

Situ Yunbing glanced in the lounge, chatted with Alonzo casually about the game, and then he waited for the players to clean up, before facing him, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at him. Neo called to go with him.

The teammates didn't know what Situ Yunbing asked Coutinho to do. They thought maybe Situ Yunbing was saving face for Coutinho and wanted to find an independent space to reprimand him.

The key source of Liverpool's overall poor performance in the first half was Coutinho.

The football field is big or small. There are 11 players on both sides of the field. When any one of them has a tactical or technical problem, it will bring a chain reaction. This is true when Situ Yunbing coached Monaco and Hamburg. , Because he always uses tactics to strategically defeat the opponent at one point, which triggers a chain reaction of the opponent's overall offensive and defensive system.

It is no exaggeration to say that Liverpool's first half rout was caused by a problem with Coutinho.

Coutinho followed Situ Yunbing silently. He dared not speak, but followed silently.

Situ Yunbing took him to the parking lot, sat in the Audi that was given by his sponsor after joining Liverpool, and motioned for Coutinho to also sit down.

Situ Yunbing drove away from Anfield and took Coutinho to one of the highest and best view restaurants in Liverpool and even the UK, Panoramic 34 Restaurant.

From the window position, you can overlook the dusk view of Liverpool City through the floor-to-ceiling windows, as well as the beautiful view of the peaceful flow of the Mersey River.

After Situ Yunbing ordered the meal, he gave the menu to Coutinho. The latter was completely at a loss. He didn't know why Situ Yunbing brought him to the restaurant for dinner.

The last supper?

Seeing that he did not respond, Situ Yunbing took the menu back and said, “I’ll help you order and recommend some of their specialties for you to try. If you like, you can bring friends and family to eat here next time. The environment here is very good. The most important thing is that no one will come up to ask you for an autograph, or encounter an Everton fan who will harass you."

After Situ Yunbing ordered dinner, the waiter poured them soda and left.

Situ Yunbing looked at Coutinho and asked curiously: "What are you thinking?"

Coutinho asked dullly afterwards, "What?"

Situ Yunbing couldn't help smiling, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Coutinho opened his mouth, then shook his head again: "Nothing was thought of."

Situ Yunbing put away his smile and whispered: "Let me guess, you must have been muttering in your heart: What will the man who yelled at me two hours ago do to me? How will he punish me? Teach me Will he never trust me anymore?"

Coutinho opened his eyes slightly, and his flat mouth didn't seem to know what to say.

Situ Yunbing said calmly: "The game is over. I like to look forward. Many people remember that I have never failed at home in Hamburg for two years, but the first show of my coaching career happened to be a disastrous defeat at home!

This made me understand that I must defend the dignity of the home court. It is not only my dignity, but also of the team and the fans. When the dignity of the fans is shattered, of course they need to find a vent, sometimes it is the players. Sometimes it will be the coach, sometimes it will be the club!

At that time I could only look forward, and I hope you also look forward.

To be honest, my team-building plan when I came to Liverpool is very different from before, but there will be some young players who are similar. In our current lineup, you, Casemiro, Robertson, Sterling, Vardy, Mahrez and so on. This is much better than the introduction of a large number of young players around the age of 20 in Hamburg. Maybe this is also a kind of improvement for me.

But I know that subconsciously I respect the Premier League and I also respect Liverpool. If you want to be successful in this league, age may not be a problem, but the core is strength. As the Liverpool coach, of course I must be responsible to Liverpool. This is the best. Respect.

Five months ago, I carefully selected the players. You are one of them. You have an enviable talent and a certain experience in the five major European football leagues. So in a sense, I am right The player's strength is also required. "

Coutinho finally dared to look directly at Situ Yunbing. His eyes were frustrated and sad, and he whispered to Situ Yunbing in a slightly innocent tone: "Boss, I just want to prove myself. For you, for all my teammates, for the fans, I want to be successful here and also get enough attention."

Perhaps it was Situ Yunbing's gentle way that made Coutinho willing to communicate with Situ Yunbing. Situ Yunbing was silent for a while and asked: "Are you too concerned about the newspaper report?"

Coutinho was silent for a while before saying: "But what's said above is true."

Fleet Street pays attention to Liverpool in addition to reporting on their victory. Naturally, some details and data will be analyzed from time to time.

Among them, in addition to Coutinho's performance on the court, there is also a conclusion derived from the data that is considered negative.

Coutinho is the player who has been replaced the most in all competitions since the new season!

It is deduced from this that he has never proved himself in front of Situ Yunbing, has not been recognized by the coach, and his situation in Liverpool is not second.

Situ Yunbing knows this of course. In England, he must devote some energy to understand what is happening outside and what is written about Liverpool in the newspapers, otherwise it is easy to be caught off guard.

"It seems that we lack sufficient understanding and communication. This is my negligence as the coach, but I hope you can understand where I am. It's like sitting here and looking at the scenery outside the window. Liverpool is like this entire block. I want to ensure that the overall design layout is reasonable and that each building will not collapse, but I cannot guarantee which building will become a landmark. Maybe a new building will become a city benchmark tomorrow."

Coutinho looked at the scenery outside the window thoughtfully, and then withdrew his gaze somewhat lostly.

Situ Yunbing said earnestly to him: "I think we have differences in the matter of'proving' each other. You did not prove yourself in Inter Milan, you did not prove yourself in the Spanish, and I don't have enough reason to ask you. When I first came to Liverpool, I had to prove myself immediately in the Premier League!

At least I have never had such thoughts and requirements of you. I think you need a season to complete your familiarity with the Premier League, improve yourself, integrate into the team, identify your own position and the role you should play, and then Try to prove yourself.

Felipe, if you think that the way to prove yourself is to score more goals, and to have a technical performance that makes the audience shine is to prove yourself, then I think you will never be able to prove yourself.

If the team fails, how can you be considered successful?

Frankly speaking, you are talented among Brazilian players, but you are not the kind of genius who is favored by God. There is such a genius in this era. In Santos’ Neymar, he is!

He has the potential to become another Brazilian player after Ronaldo and Ronaldinho who has conquered the world with gorgeous skills.

But I am not optimistic about his future, he will not become bad, he will also become a superstar, but I think he and you now have committed the same thinking mistakes.

Brazilian players always play with the thinking of ‘how can I make myself better’, but what I want to say is that the really great stars should often be: what should I do to make the team better!

Ironically, the more talented players are, the easier it is to make such mistakes.

Today’s football is recognized as the two strongest superstars, Ronaldo spent 4 years in the Premier League to complete the transformation from self to team, Messi is very lucky, fortunately he himself is in a very good team. , But in the future, once Barcelona starts to go downhill, I am sure he will also make huge sacrifices for the team. Although he is not the kind of strong and exposed player, I am sure he will do it because Barcelona taught him that way.

Closer to home, if your eyes are just staring at the strongest players in active service, you may not realize what they have experienced before and what they will face in the future.

Take a step back and see what stars like Iniesta, Xavi, Alonso and Ribery are doing on the court.

I will not encourage you to make unrealistic efforts. Frankly speaking, no one in our team can reach the height of the personal ability of Messi and Ronaldo in the next ten years through hard work or support from me!

It's nothing embarrassing to admit this, but I have the confidence to build the best team in the world!

Do you want to work hard to chase impossible goals, or do you work hard to be a member of the best team?

This is the change I hope you can understand and work hard to make. This is my expectation of you and also my request of you. "

Coutinho was stunned to hear it. Situ Yunbing's open and frank conversation with him was very important to him. At least it made him feel that he was valued by the coach and at the same time further clarified the direction!
