Star Coach

In the second half, Hodgson arranged for the young bald man Shelvey to come on. Shelvey is one of the tallest players in Liverpool's youth training in recent years, a young man who has been cultivated with great difficulty.

This guy's strength is average, and his technical and tactical skills are even more average, but his personality is very Liverpool, full of fighting spirit, not afraid of famous players, and looks like he just wants to fight with others.

It was this no-nonsense character that actually broke the situation and scored a goal. After a breakthrough in the midfield, a kick made De Gea helpless and Liverpool tied the score at home.

The score between the two sides became 1:1. Shelvey felt like he had become a hero at Anfield, celebrating wildly and holding Gerrard's head like he was comforting a crying child.

"Don't cry, big brother will make the decision for you and buy you sweets." Shelvey showed his unique domineering attitude, which made the Liverpool fans extremely happy.

This is about to give birth to a new flag player! Gerrard is the flagpole of Liverpool, and Shelvey seems to have the potential to take over from him.

After Liverpool scored, Hodgson was as happy as a child, jumping up and down on the sidelines, very cute.

Jiangshan responded immediately. Within a minute after Liverpool scored, West Ham made a quick counterattack, and David Silva scored the go-ahead goal to take the lead again.

In less than 2 minutes, the score changed twice, from 0:1 to 1:1, and then from 1:1 to 1:2. The score was not very friendly to the home fans, and was even a bit glaring.

A mistake by Shelvey allowed West Ham to counterattack. West Ham counterattacked. Modric's pass easily penetrated Liverpool's defense. Lewandowski's sharp pass allowed David Silva to outflank him from the penalty area.

A light shot that even Reina couldn't stop.

Facing the goal, Reina was helpless. The defense was in complete disarray and could not organize a decent defense. He roared angrily, "What the hell are you doing? Don't you know any defensive positioning?"

"Go...this bald man is pretending again. It's not like he didn't block the ball. It's really bad."

Someone murmured, which made Reina even more depressed. He was particularly irritable, imagining how great it would be to leave Liverpool and join West Ham!

The then-Premier League Golden Glove, seeing the miserable current situation of the team, unconsciously became disengaged and left Liverpool early. Maybe he can appear on the national team stage more often.

After West Ham scored, their offensive power also eased, and their players obviously felt tired. The pressure of double matches in a week is no joke.

Of course, Liverpool failed to show much fighting power. No matter how hard Gerrard tried, he could not hold off Benteke's empty goal. In the end, the score of 2:1 was maintained until the end of the game.

West Ham has won two consecutive away games, and Jiangshan is greatly relieved. After this game, West Ham can at least maintain its second place in the league until the end of October. Even if it loses points in the next few games, It won't affect the overall situation.

With several competitors dropping points, they have room to make mistakes.

"The Champions League is the most important thing." According to the rules set by Jiangshan, during this period, the first step is to ensure that the Champions League group qualifying, and the league only needs to bite Manchester United. The spring of next year will be the time to truly enter the decisive battle.

After two consecutive wins in the Champions League group stage, West Ham has seized the first place in the group and has a little room for mistakes.

In the next game, Jiangshan carefully rotated and faced Shakhtar Donetsk at home. Even though a few young people were arranged to play, they still managed to hold on to a 3:1 score. After three rounds of group matches, West Ham had won 9 games. integral.

One more victory will help them qualify early, but Bayern has also won two games. They also have to compete for the top spot in the group. Unfortunately, Jiangshan will not give them a chance at all.

In the Champions League group stage, West Ham firmly controlled the initiative to qualify. Even Bayern, after losing the game against West Ham, struggled to catch up and could not wait for West Ham to make mistakes.

Locking in the first place in Group A of the Champions League is of great significance for the knockout rounds starting in February next year. Whether they can reach the semi-finals of the Champions League depends on the results of the knockout rounds.

At the same time, the League Cup competition also started. Jiangshan still had the same strategy. Young players were arranged to play in the League Cup. Mahrez got a lot of opportunities and almost became an MVP in the League Cup.

Several high-quality young players such as Danilo, Kante and Eriksen performed very well and jointly sent West Ham to the semi-finals of the League Cup. They will face Crystal Palace in the semi-finals in January.

In this period of the league, West Ham's performance has been mixed, but it has clung to Manchester United and the score has not been opened up. With a gap of 5 points behind, there is still a lot of room for catching up.

Manchester United has been very lucky this season. They have scored in stoppage time in several games and have firmly controlled the first place in the league standings. Ferguson is very proud, "We will still be at the top of the league after the Christmas schedule. By then, No one can compete with us."

"West Ham is great, but they are still a little immature. Want to win the championship? Jiangshan may have to wait until I retire." Ferguson began to tease Jiangshan. He knew very well that if Jiangshan let go of the Champions League and competed exclusively with him in the league, Manchester United would have no chance of winning. This is what Ferguson suffered.

He has been in the Premier League for too long. He has the most experience in how to adjust the players' condition, adjust the rhythm of the game, and even influence the referee's decisions.

Of course, stimulated by West Ham, Manchester United still got the qualification for the Champions League group stage, but their luck was not as good as the league, and they only got the second place in the group.

Among the other Premier League teams, Arsenal also grabbed the first place in the group stage. It was a rare highlight moment. Jiangshan felt that Bayern and Barcelona would be waiting for them. Is it the same result again?

Chelsea did not have such good luck. Boas led the team and sold veterans such as Drogba, but Torres was unable to get into the state, causing them to have a big problem even scoring goals.

In this year's Champions League group stage, Chelsea was eliminated. Jiangshan did not expect that he just poached Drogba, and Chelsea's experience was so scary. The butterfly effect is too big, right?

Last season's Champions League champion was eliminated in the group stage, which made him unable to guess who would be the champion. "It seems that every team has a chance to win the championship this year. Real Madrid and Barcelona will be our biggest opponents."

The biggest problem for West Ham is that the players still lack experience in the Champions League. It is too difficult to win the championship. The top four is a safer goal.

In the Champions League round of 16 draw, West Ham was lucky enough to draw the second place in Group G, Zenit St. Petersburg, which seemed to be a guaranteed ticket.

As for Arsenal, they finally got the first place in the group, but they met Bayern, the second place in the group squeezed out by West Ham. And Manchester United's luck is not much better, facing Valencia, the first place in Group E.

Manchester United has not had much good news against opponents from La Liga.
