Chapter 122: Wasted opportunities will be punished
The league has entered the middle and late stages.
The physical fitness of the players has also reached the point where it is about to be exhausted.
So the competition at this time is the depth of the team's bench.
After the news broke that Bailly was injured in training.
Made Rogers more aware
Liverpool's chance.
Really here!
On March 14th, the last game of the twenty-ninth round of the league, it can also be regarded as the focus of this round, and the event's away game against Liverpool kicked off.
Originally, in this game, everyone would think that Liverpool would use the speed of their front trident and use counterattacks to threaten Manchester United's goal.
But did not expect.
From the beginning of the game.
Liverpool launched an offensive to Manchester United's goal.
This is somewhat beyond Manchester United's expectations.
Although Liverpool lost in the last round of the league.
But they were defeated without Li Ao.
In this game, Li Ao started without any suspense.
Therefore, in the eyes of Manchester United players.
It is natural for your own team to be on the strong side.
Even if it's an away game.
Liverpool will also cast a mouse!
With Li Ao on the pitch, it was enough to make Manchester United players feel like they were invincible.
So facing Liverpool's onslaught.
Manchester United's players seemed a little out of touch.
For a while, Manchester United's goal was a little jittery, which made the fans of Manchester United frightened.
Liverpool's attack is not a blind attack either.
If you want to score a goal, you still have to pay attention to the method and method.
Rodgers knows where United's problems lie.
Their offensive lineup is strong.
The offensive combination of Li Ao, Rooney, Ashley Young, and Wilhelm has allowed Manchester United to score 66 goals this season, far ahead of other teams.
But their defense is not good.
That said, maybe a lot of people will laugh at Rogers.
Because Manchester United only conceded 22 goals this season, which is the third-fewest team in the entire Premier League. How can such a result be regarded as poor defense?
But Rogers' research found that Manchester United's defense actually has serious hidden dangers.
This hidden danger did not appear because of Bailey's injury. It existed before Bailey was injured.
Their back line is two tall centre-backs, they have no problem defending high balls, but they have problems defending back balls, because they turn too slowly...
This is fatal.
But why is there no adversary to take advantage of?
With such an Achilles' heel, but still only conceding 20 goals, it's unreasonable!
The reason lies with Li Ao.
Because Li Ao can always appear in a key position, penetrating most of the center to block Dishi's opponent's defense from the side pass to challenge Shilian.
But Bailey and Maureen are not afraid of the high ball coming from the front.
So their defense looks good.
Because of this, Manchester United's defense basically did not encounter any major tests.
Until the match against Arsenal, Wenger let Van Persie return to the center, using his speed, flexibility, and technique, he successfully scored two goals for Manchester United......
People with discerning eyes can see the clues.
However, some people can see that they have no ability to take advantage of it, because the team is too weak, and it collapsed after being rushed by Manchester United.
Liverpool is different, Liverpool is a veteran team.
Rodgers is very confident in his players, and he believes that Liverpool can make full use of this weakness in Manchester United's defense.
Therefore, the offensive tactics he formulated for the team are all based on direct passes.
This can also make full use of the slow turning speed of Manchester United's two central defenders.
Of course, the risk of direct passing is also very high, and the success rate is not high, but as long as it succeeds once, it is fatal enough.
This is quite similar to flying. Airplanes have the highest accident rate, but once an accident occurs, there is basically no chance of survival, and the death rate is the highest.
Therefore, it is impossible for Liverpool to use defensive counterattacks, as there are too few opportunities to attack, and the success rate is naturally not high.
They must confront Manchester United, only in this way can they get more offensive opportunities, and can quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes
Of course, the dangers of doing so are great.
Because once Manchester United seizes the opportunity to counterattack, Liverpool can't stand it.
Plus they have Li Ao, an awesome midfield passer and finisher who can turn decay into magic.
Therefore, the risk of attacking Manchester United is very high!
But Rodgers has no other way, if he wants to beat Manchester United, if he wants to not lose, he has to do it.
There has never been a perfect tactic in the world. If you want to get something, maybe you need to sacrifice more other things.
In order to beat Manchester United, this risk is very worth taking!
Liverpool did cause some trouble for Manchester United with this tactic. Maureen has a strong air defense ability, but his turn speed is really slow.
Ferdinand was slightly better, but after all he was old and his body was no longer flexible.
So in the face of Liverpool's frequent direct passes, they are completely exhausted.
If it weren't for luck, Manchester United's goal would have already fallen.
Rodgers was on the sidelines, standing and directing the game all the time, and he was very nervous.
Although his team has the upper hand on the scene.
But he knows the hidden dangers behind this. Manchester United has fatal flaws, so why doesn't his Liverpool tactic have fatal flaws?
As long as the opponent seizes an opportunity to counterattack, the situation will change fundamentally...
So he was nervous.
I hope that Liverpool can score early and take the lead, which can ease his tension.
Helpless Liverpool striker Suya Reiss wasted a great opportunity.
His shot from close at hand was saved by De Gea, and then the football hit the post. When it bounced back, he didn't catch up with the follow-up shot in time, but was kicked out by defender Ferdinand.
This scene made Rogers almost have a heart attack.
Then there is anger to score!
To score!
How dare you waste an opportunity like this?
Don't you guys know which team you're playing against?
Facing Manchester United, facing Li Ao, how dare you squander the opportunity so recklessly?
Suya Reiss also looked disappointed holding her head.
Suya Reiss is undoubtedly one of the most powerful strikers in the Premier League.
Perhaps the only one who can be compared with him in the striker position is Manchester City's Aguero.
Even Rooney.
The current Rooney has lost the impact of the year due to his rising age.
There is also a gap in scoring ability with Suya Reiss.
This season, Suya Reiss has scored 23 goals in 28 league rounds.
Performed very well.
Although he has been rumored with Barcelona this summer.
But in the end he stayed in Liverpool.
As long as he's in Liverpool.
He is the darling of Anfield.
B...
Waste this opportunity.
Maybe it will make Liverpool players and fans regret it.
