Chapter 171 Benitez's Map Cannon
"I think Ferguson always talks too much about other teams. I don't think it's psychological warfare. I think he's just a little scared of us! After all, he just won a big game at Old Trafford."
At the pre-match press conference between Chelsea and Liverpool, when the reporter mentioned Ferguson's provocation, Benitez said so.
These people didn't know that Benitez already knew about this matter yesterday, and even broke a beloved wine glass of his own.
This time he did not take out a piece of A4 paper, which is something that is still being laughed at.
So, this time Benitez has been thinking all night, what should he say today.
Righting the microphone, "I just want to focus on preparing for our game, but obviously you can see that Manchester United are not playing well, and they are starting to feel the pressure."
Referring to the game between Manchester United and Porto, Benitez also admitted, "I watched that game. Manchester United did not play well at home. Their defense is still the same as when we played against us before. Porto It's normal to score two goals."
Benitez then used a very sneering voice, "Didn't you find out? Were the two goals of Porto assisted by Manchester United players? And in their game against Aston Villa, you saw the referee give The 5-minute stoppage time? I don’t want to comment on the ‘Ferguson time’, I’m afraid of being fined by the FA again, after all, I’m not Ferguson and I don’t need to be fined.”
"Aren't you just commenting on Manchester United like Ferguson? Then what is the difference between you and Ferguson commenting on Liverpool?" This reporter must be a Manchester United fan.
But you underestimate Benitez, "I am giving my opinion here because he said a bunch of things. I would rather talk about the game. I know Ferguson prefers Yunqiao. Of course he will." Support Chelsea, but if we win, it will be even worse for Manchester United, because only if Chelsea continue in the Champions League, they will fight on the third front and the body will be tired."
Here Benitez said with certainty, "Only if Chelsea's players are tired, then Chelsea will make mistakes in the league and Manchester United will have a chance. If Chelsea is out, that is the biggest threat to Manchester United."
"But I want to say that Ferguson is thinking too much. We will definitely let Chelsea focus on the league. We Liverpool can't win the league championship, and of course I don't want Manchester United to win the championship."
The more Benitez talked, the happier he was, and he deviated from the theme of this press conference. This is a press conference for the Champions League, not a special session for you to tease people.
The reporters don't care where this is. Anyway, there are more reporters on Fleet Street here. They can better find out the news that the fans like and want to see. "May I ask why you have such a bad relationship with Sir Alex?"
This question made Benitez stunned for a moment. Yes, when did the relationship with Ferguson become so bad? I remember when I first debuted, my relationship with Ferguson was very good.
"I had a good relationship with Ferguson. We used to attend the coaching conference together in Switzerland. After the Istanbul final, he also wrote me a letter to congratulate me. Maybe I came to Liverpool as a coach, and it was also because Liverpool won. There were too many, and Ferguson started to worry that we were going to overtake Manchester United, so our relationship went from bad to worse."
If there was Mourinho as a buffer between them before, now Benitez and Ferguson have just stood up face to face. When Mourinho was there, he was everyone's target and attracted all the artillery fire.
Now that Mourinho has gone to Serie A to fight, Lao Bei let go of the talk today and sent the artillery fire from England to Italy, and Mourinho couldn't escape it.
"Chelsea was a great club before Mourinho, I respect Chelsea, but I have to say I don't like the way Mourinho criticizes other teams. If anyone criticizes Liverpool, I will definitely talk back. I hope everyone maintains respect. I know that Larry has signed a lot of good players. Mourinho is very good in winning championships, but as a team manager, he is always talking about other people's teams. It's disrespectful to others."
When it comes to Yunqiao, Benitez's tone is much better, "Yun has done a great job, I envy him very much, the most correct thing Mourinho did is to support Yunqiao as Chelsea's head coach .”
Yunqiao received a wave of praise from the air, and when it comes to this game, Benitez is very confident: "My team is in good shape now. I know Chelsea are very strong. They have always been good since the beginning of the league. The leaders of the Premier League, they don't have too many injuries now, Anelka is absent, and Lewandowski, a very good striker, can go up."
"However, I think they will be very tired now. Last season, Yunqiao had a lot of good players, but this season they have a lot fewer players. I believe their players are tired. And my Liverpool players are now fit. Both confidence and confidence are very high, so it is not a big problem to win this game."
Benitez talked a lot today. It can be seen that he was very excited. Ferguson provoked his nerves again. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said a lot to the reporters. He didn't see the Liverpool captain Gera next to him. Has De not had a chance to speak since he sat down?
It can only be said that Ferguson's "psychological warfare" against Benitez was very successful. Of course, Old Bei would not admit that it was a "psychological warfare."
Maybe Mourinho, who is far away in Italy, will feel very wronged when he hears Benitez pull himself out again. What’s wrong, I’m not the one who messed with you. I’m already in Italy. Also fired at me.
So the press conference on Benitez's side was very hot, very passionate, and the reporters were also very excited. This is another day's headlines, and there is no need for games.
The press conference at Yunqiao was relatively quiet. After answering a few questions honestly, Yunqiao took people to Anfield.
Still in the locker room, Yunqiao heard Anfield's voice resounding across the night. This time the voice was different from the previous ones, it was deeper and deeper, and even had an obvious crying voice.
"What's the matter, isn't the situation outside right?" Yunqiao pulled the coaching staff aside to make the final arrangements.
"This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy." As Liverpool's opponent for many years, Solskjaer immediately understood that this game is difficult to play.
Yunqiao also realized that this was the matter.
In 1989, more than 5000 people flooded the same stand at Hillsborough Stadium to host Liverpool's Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-final, causing a serious stampede.
At that time, 96 people were killed and more than 200 were injured.
Today, except for Liverpool, everyone else thinks that it was caused by Liverpool fans, coupled with the lies of the police officers present, the malicious reports of the media and the unfair treatment by the government.Now in 2009, no one is responsible for the Hillsborough tragedy, and it is still believed that Liverpool fans committed suicide.
However, Yunqiao certainly knew that it was not until 2016 that the Liverpool fans were truly justified. The main reason for the stampede was the dereliction of duty of the police, and the ineffective organization, management and control of the scene, which eventually led to the crowd getting out of control.The grievances that have been pressed on Liverpool fans for many years have been cleared.
This incident happened on April 4th, the second round of the UEFA Champions League between Chelsea and Liverpool was originally scheduled on this day. In order to avoid this day, Liverpool’s top management negotiated with UEFA for a long time before changing the second round 15th.
In order to thank the team for their efforts, the fans also want to commemorate the fans who were last year. They don't want to quiet Anfield today.
"This game is going to be tough."
Yunqiao said this sentence, and it is not an exaggeration to say that fans are the 12th person on the field.In many cases, the emotions of the fans often affect the emotions of the players, whether they are home players or away players.
Of course, their effects are also relative. The home players seem to be on steroids, running all over the field.For away players, the psychological pressure can be imagined.
The reason why Turkey's stadium is always regarded as the devil's home by other European teams is because their home fans are too enthusiastic.
I didn't slander Benitez's ideas. His two press conferences are true, and they are all on Baidu.And when he came to the Chinese Super League to coach, he clearly stated that he was given a lot of money, so I admired him very much.
