Super Storm

For this trip to London, Benitez and the coaching staff produced a lot of documentation about Chelsea.

Including the league, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the UEFA Champions League all game reports, player data, in-depth analysis of the two teams have done well, and where they have failed.

The materials of the coach's office alone are filled with the entire desk, and the research on the opponent is also exhaustive.

Of course, not just Liverpool, but Chelsea who believes Mourinho is the same.

The two semi-finals are not only about the prize money of several million euros, but also related to the finals and the championship, the potential income of over one hundred million euros, and the winning prize of over ten million euros.

If this is to run a company with a billion-dollar business, which company is not deliberately studying?

Even, in order to better prepare for this game, Benitez also made arrangements specifically in the player room.

Yang Yang and Aurelio were placed in the same room.

Obviously, both of them will play, one playing left-wing and one playing left-back.

The reason for arranging them in a room is to hope that they will have a chance to study and **** their opponents in the game.

The night in London was very calm, just like the previous away game.

Yang Yang chatted with Su Ye for a while.

She and Kuran and other female families also came away with the team. They also lived in the same hotel as the team, but they forbid visiting each other.

Subsequently, Yang Yang chatted with Aurelio for a while, and then fell asleep.

In the super training ground, he simulated Chelsea's midfield and backcourt defense for training, and was familiar with one night.

He hopes to have a better performance at Stamford Bridge Stadium tomorrow.

But what he didn't know was that something happened in the room next door.

It wasn't until he woke up the next morning, after scrubbing, that when he walked out of the room, he discovered the abnormality.

...

"what happened?"

Yang Yang looked at Gerald in surprise. The first reaction was to laugh.

Gerald was wearing a nightgown with a messy hair and was listless.

The reason why Yang Yang saw that he had a problem at a glance was because of his red and swollen lips.

If you have watched the movie [Just East and West], you must be impressed by Liang Chaowei ’s sausage mouth. Now Gerald is almost like this, but it is not as exaggerated as redness, but it is very obvious.

This makes Yang Yang really want to say to him, brother, you really look like Liang Chaowei!

Although, Gerrard may not know who Liang Chaowei is.

"Did you get dirty?" Carragher asked with a smile.

Everyone around can't help but burst out.

Gerald almost flew and kicked him to death, but in the end, he just stared at the dead party fiercely, sulking.

"Are you all right?" Yang Yang asked with concern.

Gerrard looked up at Yang Yang, **** eyes full of grudges, "Can it be all right? Toss all night."

The crowd immediately looked at Crouch and questioned in their eyes, Peter, how can you make Steven like this?

The English Goblin is very innocent, "I don't know, I fell asleep early."

"He slept like a dead pig." Gerrard said quietly.

It was at this time that team doctor Mark Waller walked over with coach Benitez and Yesterdam, apparently introducing Gerald's current situation to the coaching staff.

The pressure is too great!

Professional players are also a high-pressure career, not only to face opponents, but also to the fans in the stands, as well as the audience in front of the TV. It can be said that the pressure is really very large, and the pressure resistance is slightly worse , Can't kick it out.

But even if these players kicked out, it is inevitable to continue to fight against stress and anxiety.

Therefore, the abuse of sleeping pills has always been a very serious problem for professional players.

The reason why Yang Yang's sleep goes everywhere is angry. This is the reason.

The war is imminent, and it is a rival of the same country. Gerrard is the captain of the team. If you are not anxious and not under much pressure, it is impossible.

Especially in the past few years, the English national team has always been unable to find an effective solution to the problem between Gerald and Lampard. Gerald also definitely wants to prove himself.

As a result, his soul is very strong and can bear everything, but his body begins to eat a little.

Last night, in the middle of the night, Gerald suddenly felt unwell, his lips were red and swollen, and there were pus inside, so he went to Mark Waller.

After the team doctor diagnosed him, he was prescribed pain relief, disinfection and antibiotics, hoping to get him to get rid of the redness temporarily, and then check it again after playing the game. , Can only go to London dentists overnight.

"Ma, the dentist must be a Chelsea fan. I can smell the smell of Stamford Bridge on him. He deliberately tossed me so that I could not participate in the game tonight. It must be!" Gerrard complained. Road.

Yang Yang and others looked at each other, and they couldn't help but laugh.

Gerrard has been looking forward to this game for a long time. From the time of drawing to Chelsea, he has prepared for this game.

Because, two years ago, that is, 2005, Liverpool also stepped on the body of Chelsea in the semi-finals to enter the final.

At that time, Liverpool won the final and staged the Istanbul Miracle.

Regardless of luck, some people deliberately arranged this way. This year's Champions League semi-final, Liverpool once again met Chelsea. How did Gerald not generate imagination?

Yang Yang still clearly remembered that shortly after he came to Liverpool, Harvey Alonso told him that Gerald, a fortune teller, said he had a hunch that Liverpool would make it to the finals this year.

"Boss, don't worry, I'll be swollen in a moment. I will definitely be able to go to the game tonight. It's a big deal to take some painkillers." Gerrard said very resolutely, and his fighting spirit was very strong.

Benitez turned his head to look at Mark Waller, the team doctor looked at Gerrard, and then the head coach. He looked a little embarrassed. "He has a little difficulty even eating now. Besides, painkillers It ’s not good to eat too much. "

Drug abuse is an old problem of most professional players.

When Yang Yang came to the Premier League, he discovered that in the Premier League, the problem of drug abuse is more serious.

Of course, the players in the Premier League are generally more sturdy, born with a kind of blood that does not hurt the line of fire.

"The abscess is drained, and the mess in the mouth is cleared, but I still need a break."

"But I think I can!" Gerrard said with certainty. "I took a nap at noon, and I was refreshed in the afternoon."

No one in the team will doubt the blood of Liverpool Captain, but ...

…………

…………

Benitez finally chose Jean Gerard.

This may not be a very wise choice, but it should be the right choice.

The Premier League team is very special. What is completely different from Yang Yang's previous Ajax is that the Premier League team, especially Liverpool, is a team that emphasizes tradition and spirit.

For example, they can keep everything in the dressing room decades ago intact to the present, even if it is small, very outdated, and does not have those modern facilities, but these are not important.

From the perspective of Liverpool people, this is something they have been sticking to for years.

It's like the Hillsborough Massacre Monument outside Anfield Stadium. Even after so many years, they are still struggling to find a truth, and never give up.

From this team, to its players, to its fans, from their bodies, words and deeds, and even blood, you can feel a very unique power.

If it is on other teams, the head coach will never allow this situation like Gerrard, but in Liverpool, Benitez agreed, and all other players feel normal, just like if Benitet It was strange that Sri Lanka refused.

Yang Yang has always been a very calm and sensible person, and he did not feel anything unusual in this matter of Gerald.

Perhaps, from the first day he joined Liverpool, Gerrard has been there.

Whether it is home or away, whether it is injured or healthy, at any time, as long as the game is Liverpool, he has been there, either in the stadium or in the stands.

As for Gerrard playing, Yang Yang just stepped forward and said with concern, "I can't bear to remember to hurry."

"Relax, I can insist that the whistle sounds until the end of the game!" Gerrard said with a raised head.

Everyone else came forward one after another.

...

Gerald should be thankful, because after a nap at night, the redness on his lips subsided.

This allows him to avoid playing with sausage mouth, otherwise, it will definitely become a big joke in the world.

So, the Liverpool captain flaunted his teammates somewhat proudly, "Look, am I right?"

Everyone suddenly ridiculed again.

Yang Yang smiled bitterly. Although he could not understand this idea of ​​the English players, he also fully respected it.

As Harvey Alonso said, this kind of thing is normal in the Premier League, and foreign players either accept and integrate them.

If it is really impossible to accept and integrate, then it can only leave.

And this should be what Van Basten said, moving to a strange team and league, the most important thing is to actively integrate into the local life, so that it is possible to succeed.

...

The team arrived at Stamford Bridge Stadium two hours early.

Chelsea arrived almost at the same time.

Two teams that are very familiar with each other are about to usher in a pinnacle of the Champions League semi-finals.

This battle not only attracted the attention of all fans across the UK, but also attracted the attention of fans all over the world.

Liverpool's home and away doubles against Chelsea this season has performed well in the league, but these are of no use to this game tonight.

Before the game, everyone also felt that it was impossible for both sides to come up with some unexpected tricks in this game.

Whether it is Mourinho or Benitez, it is impossible to give opponents too many opportunities, the key depends on who has the better ability to seize the opportunity, who has fewer mistakes.
