Extraordinary coach

"Really? I've been waiting for a long time too. I can't wait to lift the championship trophy."

After hearing Klopp's words, Sun Yi said so at the pre-match press conference.

Sun Yi's words seemed very plain and brief. But between the lines, there is a strong determination to win the championship.

At the same time, this short statement also has the meaning of ignoring Klopp and Liverpool.

"Arrogant! Arrogant!!"

After learning what Sun Yi said, Klopp, who has a very bad temper, immediately became angry.

"Champions are not won by words. They are won by kicks. They are won by true strength."

After hearing what the media relayed, Sun Yi nodded with approval.

"Yeah. I agree too. Therefore, the championship trophy will only belong to us. Facing the defeated opponents, we have no reason not to win the championship. Right?"

If it were anyone else, Sun Yi would not have spoken like this, nor would he have been so high-profile before the game. But facing Klopp, a rival who has formed a problem, Sun Yi is not ready to keep a low profile.

He doesn't like to see Klopp arrogant. He just likes to see Klopp looking deflated.

After Sun Yi's words came out, Klopp was indeed a little frustrated. Who told him that Liverpool did lose to Southampton in the previous match.

If you lose, you lose. There is no way to refute this. Klopp could only say unconvinced: "There are winners and losers in games. No one is a winning team. Even Manchester City can't do it. No, we just defeated Manchester City a while ago. And Southampton It seems that we lost to Manchester City before.”

"So, everyone knows. Only the person who laughs last laughs best."

"We'll see. I'll see you all in the finals. Then we'll know who laughs the best."

"Yeah. I also agree with this sentence. But what I want to say is that the one who laughs the best and laughs the best is definitely us. Southampton team!"

…

No matter what Klopp said to the media, Sun Yi would respond arrogantly.

Klopp found that he really couldn't attack Sun Yi while talking. As long as he doesn't lead the team to defeat Sun Yi, he can't defeat him. He simply stopped talking after that. Instead, they just waited to get to the final and beat Southampton hard.

And Klopp is Klopp after all, and he can't beat Sun Yi in terms of rhetoric. But he used Sun Yi's high-profile words to inspire the Liverpool team.

"Did everyone see it? Is that Chinese guy particularly arrogant?"

"yes."

"Is he ignoring us?"

"yes."

"That Chinese guy, he looks down on us. He despises us. What should we do?"

"Fuck him! Go into the game and beat up Southampton. Slap him in the face so hard it'll swell."

"Yes. We want the world to know that we, Liverpool, are not afraid of anyone. We can defeat any opponent. We can kill Manchester City, we can kill Southampton."

"Fuck them to death, kill them to death!..."

"Yes. Not only do we want to kill them, but we also want to pull off the Chinese's underpants so that everyone can see his true colors."

"Haha. Then his little penis will probably be very disappointing..."

Under Klopp's encouragement, the entire Liverpool team was holding their breath and thinking about defeating Southampton.

The Southampton team is going to be skinned and cramped. We want Sun Yi and Southampton to become the laughing stock of the entire football world.

Even Salah, who has always felt a little guilty about Sun Yi in his heart, was driven by this emotion and had the same idea as other Liverpool players.

With this sentiment in mind, Liverpool prepared very well.

As for the Southampton team, Sun Yi naturally wants to motivate the players.

"I think at this moment, Klopp must be talking nonsense to the Liverpool players about killing us."

"They think if they beat Manchester City, they can beat us?"

"They're so naive."

"If we can beat them once, we can beat them the second time."

"When I say we want to lift the championship trophy, we must lift it."

"You want to lift the championship trophy?"

"Of course I do."

"Do you have confidence?"

"Of course."

"As long as you want it, as long as you have confidence, no one can stop us from lifting the championship trophy. Klopp and his Liverpool team, no!"

"Champion! Champion!! We want the championship!!"

Southampton itself has a psychological advantage over Liverpool. Therefore, Sun Yi's encouragement naturally aroused the Southampton team's high morale and belief in winning.

However, Sun Yi spoke arrogantly and extremely domineeringly. But in his heart he did not underestimate Klopp and Liverpool.

On the contrary, he is extremely serious and cautious in his heart.

Klopp is a strong coach. Liverpool are a very strong team. This can be understood from their ability to defeat Manchester City a while ago.

Therefore, Sun Yi always looks calm and calm when facing the players, and victory is only a matter of talking and laughing. But in private, he spent a lot of time studying the game. Study the weaknesses of Klopp and Liverpool.

At the same time, he also tried his best to simulate the final.

In order to conduct a large number of simulated battles, Sun Yi consumed a lot of physical energy. As a result, he only had Juanjuan, a charming little fairy, in his arms, but like an ascetic, he had no interest in beauty.

While both sides were preparing nervously for the match, the outside world was also discussing the match.

In view of the strength of both teams and their previous records, the outside world's opinions on this game are also polarized.

"Southampton can definitely win the championship. Their recent momentum has been very good. With Balotelli, their offensive firepower has been greatly strengthened."

"And everyone knows that Southampton has beaten Liverpool before. This will give them a big psychological advantage."

"Furthermore, Sun Yi is a tactical genius. In the competition between the two coaches, he is obviously the stronger one."

"From all aspects of the situation, Southampton has been able to beat Liverpool before. This time, the Southampton team, which has greatly improved its strength, will win."

"So, Southampton must win. Southampton must be the champions."

This is clearly in favor of Southampton. It seems that he is also very confident in the Southampton team.

"To put it bluntly, who wouldn't? Last season, wasn't Southampton even more mistreated by Liverpool?"

"The games played so long ago have no reference value. To watch, you have to look at the present."

"Compared to the first half of the schedule, Liverpool's current team has a better understanding, and has made great progress in both mental state and tactics."

"The current Liverpool team is obviously stronger than before. This is very clear from the fact that they can beat Manchester City."

"It can be said that the current Liverpool team is two different teams from the Liverpool team a few months ago. The current team is one of the best teams in the Premier League."

"Liverpool can win even Manchester City, which has defeated Southampton before. It cannot win against Southampton without a first appearance."

"From all aspects of the situation, Liverpool must win. Liverpool must be the champion!"

This is naturally someone who supports Liverpool. It seems that they are also very confident in Liverpool. And there is some truth in what they said.

The thing is, both sides have a point. Therefore, no one can convince anyone. Everyone had a heated discussion, but they couldn't decide the winner.

When it comes to football matches, you can't just rely on your words to determine the outcome. Only the results will tell.

"The game is coming, there is no point in arguing now. Let the game come and prove who is right."

The outside world is arguing endlessly about who wins and who loses, and there are scenes of quarrels everywhere among fans and even many well-known football figures. Make the whole football world lively.

But Sun Yi didn't pay attention to all this at all. As the game approached, he had Southampton conduct a closed training session. Isolate the impact of outside information on players' emotions.

Klopp did the same thing.

A few days later, when outside public opinion reached its peak, the long-awaited EFL Cup final also arrived.

The match was held at Wembley Stadium, a neutral venue.

Therefore, enthusiastic fans from both sides filled their respective stands.

And because of the great significance of this game to Sun Yi, many Chinese fans even came from home to cheer Sun Yi.

Because there were so many people who wanted to watch the game, many Chinese fans were unable to buy tickets. Many people just gathered outside the stadium to watch the game.

Moreover, not only are there many Chinese fans outside the stadium, but there are also a large number of Chinese fans sitting in the Southampton stands.

As a result, Chinese red and Chinese characters representing Chinese elements appeared in large numbers inside and outside the venue.

This scene made many European and American media sigh with emotion. They all couldn't help but marvel at how Sun Yi brought a huge number of Chinese fans to Southampton.

"Southampton is now a Chinese team."

The large number of Chinese fans arriving made Southampton fans far outnumber Liverpool fans inside and outside the stadium.

What's even more annoying is that many Chinese fans bought Liverpool tickets and sat in the stands of Liverpool fans. But the banner was 'Sun Yi raises a glass'.

This, I have to say, is quite frustrating for Liverpool fans.

"Liverpool. Must win!!"

"Southampton, champions!"

Under the shouts of the fans from both sides, Sun Yi confidently led the Southampton team into Wembley Stadium.

"Sun, Sun, Sun!!!"

As soon as Sun Yi entered the field, he was immediately cheered by Southampton fans.

The Liverpool team was not to be outdone. They also shouted. But their slogans are a bit confusing.

"Klopp. Klopp."

"Liverpool, Liverpool."

"Salah, Salah..."

Liverpool fans shouted everything.

It can be seen that in the hearts of Liverpool fans, Klopp's status may not be comparable to Sun Yi's status in the hearts of Southampton fans.

And it is precisely because the Liverpool fans are not shouting in the same direction. Even though their numbers are not bad, they are far less powerful than Southampton.

Sun Yi raised his eyebrows at Klopp proudly, then laughed and waved to the fans in the stands.

Then he turned to all the Southamptonians and shouted: "Southampton, we must win!"

"Southampton, we must win!!" the players shouted with their fists raised.

"Southampton, must win!!" The fans also shouted immediately.

This situation of players and fans chanting in unison made the Southampton team's momentum reach its peak in an instant.

Seeing this, Klopp, unwilling to lose his momentum to Southampton, walked up to the Liverpool players and began to raise his fist and roar.

"Liverpool, win!"

"Liverpool, win!"

Under Klopp's leadership, Liverpool and their fans also began to shout in unison.

This time the slogans were in unison, and the momentum followed.

In this way, under the leadership of the head coaches of both sides, before the game started, the two sides started a fierce confrontation in terms of military morale.

Regarding this scene, the on-site commentator of this game, Taylor Martin, said passionately: "Oh. God! Look, this is what a real final looks like."

"Not to mention the tit-for-tat between the head coaches of both sides in the media before the game. As soon as they entered the stadium, the two sides began to compete fiercely."

"Yes, this is a rare thing. However, such a game is more interesting. Isn't it?" Taylor Masi's old commentary partner Allardyce continued: "From the current point of view, the two sides should be evenly matched for the time being."

"Next, it depends on the real competition between the two sides in the game. Only then can the winner be determined."

"Allardyce, before the game starts, tell me your prediction for this game."

"Taylor, you know, this game is too difficult to judge. In my opinion, both sides have a chance to win. Their strength is currently in a state of equal strength. I can only say that it's fifty-fifty. Therefore, I really can't judge who will win the final championship now."

"However, what I can be sure of is that this game will definitely be extremely fierce. It will definitely be exciting. ”

“Yes. This game is definitely worth looking forward to.”

“Let’s look forward to it. Now, let me talk about the starting lineups of both teams in this game.”

“First, Southampton. The starting lineup is as expected. Balotelli, Kaka, Golovin, Pulisic, Davis, Romeu, Bertrand, Van Dijk, Pavard, Enderrick. The goalkeeper is Foster. The substitutes are: Prowse, Raymond…”

“Next, it’s Liverpool. Firmino, Salah, Mane, Emre. James, Chamberlain, Wijnaldum, Robertson, Lovren, Stephens, Matip, Klein, goalkeeper Karius. Substitutes: Moreno, Milner, Lallana..."

"From the starting lineups of both teams, the main players are all out!"

"However, from the formations of both teams, it seems that Liverpool is more aggressive. They used a 433 formation, while Southampton used a 4231 formation. It seems that Klopp is obviously more aggressive than Sun. "

Soon, both sides finished warming up and held a grand entrance ceremony.

Then at the referee's whistle,

the League Cup final began!
