Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

The slightly aggrieved way Paris was eliminated also sounded a wake-up call to other strong European teams.

Chelsea only needed to score one goal in two rounds to suffocate the top Champions League team. This defensive ability is still amazing.

In the second round of the second round, Paris Saint-Germain attacked at Stamford Bridge and still failed to score anything, which can be regarded as allowing fans from all walks of life to once again see the terrifying advantage of Chelsea's home game.

It has been three seasons since any team has conquered Chelsea's home stadium.

This exaggerated unbeaten record is like silently telling all Chelsea’s challengers:

If they want to decide the outcome with Chelsea, they must try their best to get a lead at their own home court. Otherwise, when they arrive at Stamford Bridge, they will only be greeted by a ruthless defeat!

For Chelsea's players, the fact that they continue their unbeaten record at home can give them more psychological advantages.

After successfully defeating Paris Saint-Germain and reaching the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League, Li Ang organized a generous dinner for his teammates.

But this time there are far fewer media gossiping.

Often scolded by the fans, these media are not without brains. This time at least they have to wait until Chelsea loses before they will stand up and express their opinions on the matter.

In the near future, their most likely chance of turning around is to expect Liverpool to give Chelsea a head-on blow in the league.

If Chelsea were to meet Liverpool's challenge at home, then these media would not dare to have too many expectations.

But Liverpool's next league match is against Chelsea at Anfield, so the situation is different.

Klopp's leadership this season failed to lead Liverpool directly into the top four of the Premier League, but there is no doubt that the combat effectiveness of Liverpool under his command is indeed much "stronger" compared to the previous season.

It is a kind of mental tenacity and bravery.

Perhaps in terms of strength, the gap between Liverpool and Chelsea and Manchester City is still relatively large, but their spiritual construction has obviously kept up with the pace of strong teams.

What Liverpool lack now is the stability of their performance, but their ability to fight hard at Anfield is not bad at all.

Chelsea's coaching staff is well aware of this, so before the start of the game against Liverpool, the entire Chelsea team also completed targeted preparation training.

Leaving aside other Liverpool players, it will probably be difficult for Coutinho to perform against Chelsea in this round of the league.

As for the crazy running tactics currently being played by Liverpool, the whole Chelsea team is not too worried. After all, this tactic is also familiar to Chelsea.

Chelsea can use any tactics that Liverpool can use, but Liverpool cannot use the tactics that Chelsea can use.

To put it bluntly, Liverpool is just a beggar version of Chelsea without superstars. Chelsea's chances of winning against them are still very high.

On the fifth day after the battle with Paris Saint-Germain, the Chelsea team went away to start the 30th round of the Premier League contest with Liverpool.

At this stage, Chelsea and Liverpool, who are not burdened by the domestic cup competition in England, have relatively sufficient rest time.

Therefore, in this round of the league, Liverpool still chose to play with all the main players against Chelsea. They also set up the most powerful 433 starting lineup at Anfield.

After Sterling and Suarez left Liverpool, Coutinho and Firmino quickly took over, and now they have become the new favorites of Anfield.

Under Klopp's correct use and tactical adjustments, their personal data has also maintained smooth growth.

Firmino's current Premier League data is 10 goals and 6 assists, while Coutinho's Premier League data this season is 10 goals and 5 assists.

The new forward duo formed by the two has completed their scoring tasks this season reliably.

It is a pity that Sturridge has been injured and stopped, but even so, he has scored 7 goals in 12 appearances, and his scoring efficiency is extremely high.

This also makes more neutral fans feel sorry for Sturridge.

If he has a healthy body, not only will Liverpool be able to gain a powerful new striker trio, but the England national team will also have an all-around striker group of Kane + Sturridge.

It's a pity that such an excellent forward who should be killing everyone at his peak has been struggling with injuries.

Sturridge was also absent due to injury in this round of the league, and Klopp could only push Lallana up front.

This is also the strongest offensive trio he can produce now.

In comparison, Chelsea's forward line after rotation is still very enviable by Klopp.

Hazard + Llorente + Salah.

After the rotation, Chelsea's front three are still capable of breaking down any defense in the Premier League.

On Chelsea's bench, Gnabry and De Bruyne, who is resting today, are still on standby.

Klopp looked at Chelsea's bench, then at Benteke, who had a clear and stupid look in his eyes on his own bench, and finally could only helplessly shake his head...

The game started on time at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Chelsea, who took the first kick off, did not rush to put pressure on Liverpool's defense. Instead, they controlled the field first, seducing Liverpool's midfielders to attack and press.

But now the Liverpool team's tactical execution is much stronger than before.

Klopp didn't nod, and no Liverpool midfielder dared to break the tactical plan made by the coaching staff before the game.

Faced with Chelsea's midfielder's constant seduction by controlling the ball, the entire Liverpool team remained unmoved. The two teams conducted offensive and defensive trials more cautiously. Upon seeing this, Li Ang quickly changed his organizational thinking.

After the first 10 minutes of the game, Liang and Kroos moved the ball more to the wings.

Salah, who started on the right wing today, prefers to take the ball and attack the base compared to De Bruyne. He and Hazard have fully maximized Chelsea's breakthrough capabilities on both wings today.

Without some organization and support from the wings, Chelsea's offense seems to be less refined, but the more direct breakthrough play of the two wingers is also more able to put pressure on Liverpool's defense.

Seeing that both Hazard and Salah were performing normally, Li Ang also generously gave up the offensive ball rights, allowing them to get the ball more and break through to find the feeling.

With him and Kroos sorting out and transferring the ball in the midfield, Hazard and Salah don't have to worry about not having enough ball.

It's just right for them to share the ball at this time. Llorente, who serves as the fulcrum in the middle, can play without the ball, and other players in the team can also serve them.

After feeding enough ball rights, Chelsea's offensive attack from both wings was full of aggression, and Liverpool's defense also shrank again and again.

They can't help but shrink their formation now. Both Moreno and Klein can only be regarded as good full-backs in the Premier League, but they are far from the top.

After shrinking the formation, Liverpool can at least further concentrate its defensive forces to consolidate the central defense. If it has to be hard-topped, then it will not just be as simple as losing the wing.

Klopp's heroic tactical decision was still very effective. Hazard and Salah had more successful passes, but the way they completed the threatening pass was basically a cross.

Liverpool, which has consolidated its central defense, still has no major problems in air defense. Even though Llorente has a great advantage in high-altitude competition, Lovren and Toure's double-team defense is also very tough.

Llorente doesn't have much space to rush forward. In a static competition for the top, he can only be defeated by double-team defense.

After withstanding the first wave of Chelsea's offensive, Liverpool relied on the active fighting of the players in the center to grab several good counterattack opportunities.

Liverpool does not have a very fast forward, but their quick counterattacks rely more on one-touch passes and an overall off-the-ball running system.

Milner acted as a transfer station for counterattacks in the middle, Firmino played his fulcrum role very well, and Coutinho and Lallana divided the sides to help each other involve Chelsea's defensive strength.

Their counterattacks are very layered, and with a set of passes involved, they can often get a kicking opportunity in Chelsea's defensive third zone.

That is to say, Li Ang did his homework in advance and took Firmino seriously during the counterattack. Otherwise, this Brazilian striker with mysterious movements might really be able to seize the opportunity to threaten Chelsea's goal.

As for Coutinho, this striker who can often hit super rub shots has been figured out by Chelsea's backcourt defenders.

He was forced to use his left foot to handle the ball, without giving him any chance to shoot with his right foot. After several defensive attacks, Courinho had no greater threat except passing the ball in the counterattack.

The two teams played fairly smoothly in the first half of the first half, and the pace of the game was fast. It seemed quite exciting and enjoyable.

However, after figuring out Liverpool's defensive methods, Mourinho decisively made tactical adjustments first, signaling Leondo to step in and join the attack!

Previously, Llorente was hard to defend due to being double-teamed, but his height and weight advantages are huge for both Toure and Lovren.

It may be difficult for him to complete the challenge for the goal against the double-team defense of these two people, but it is very simple for him to bear the defensive pressure and make the ball.

Mourinho asked Li Ang to join in the attack more in order to further release Llorente's fulcrum role.

This tactical adjustment immediately further revitalized Chelsea's offensive system.

Hazard and Salah do not need to make major changes in their playing style. They can still kick the ball relatively easily under Liverpool's wings, but the responsibility for the end of the offense has been transferred from Llorente to Li Ang.

The heavy defensive troops that Liverpool accumulated in the penalty area have also become a decoration. The heavy artillery bombardment inserted by Li Ang is extremely threatening. If you want to stop him, you must expand the defensive line.

Klopp did not hesitate for too long, mainly because he had no choice. In the end, he could only let the previous offensive players retreat to assist his teammates in defense first.

But as soon as they withdrew, Kroos and Matic directly pressed on the top of the arc in their half to organize the pass!

Chelsea's backcourt players also pressed directly across the board.

The task of lowering the ball can be handed over to the two full-backs. At this time, Hazard and Salah can move more to the rib areas on both sides of Liverpool.

Mourinho's series of tactical changes immediately overwhelmed the entire Liverpool team and left them breathless.

Chelsea's offensive waves are continuous and show no signs of stopping. This forces them to maintain their defensive focus at all times and not dare to make any defensive mistakes.

But there are very few teams in today's football that can do this on the defensive end. Liverpool is not among such top defensive teams anyway.

And to put it bluntly, if you put Lovren on the front line to fight with the opponent's center and let him charge into the battle, he is very suitable.

But if you ask him to be a defense commander and have to keep his head clear at all times and avoid making mistakes, isn't this making things difficult for him?

Toure's personal ability was very strong in his peak period, but he is now 35 years old and has rich defensive experience, but his upper limit of ability has long since dropped.

No matter how strong Klopp is at coaching defense, relying on these two central defenders to lead the team into the top six in the Premier League is the limit.

If they can withstand Chelsea's full attack, then Liverpool will now have at least one place in the top four of the Premier League.

A hard cap is unrealistic, the upper limit of their capabilities has been reached, and Liverpool cannot last long behind the expanded defense.

In the 30th minute of the first half, Li Ang's explosive shot from the edge of Liverpool's penalty area made Mignolet free.

In the chaos, Hazard passed the ball to the back of the Liverpool goal. Salah, who hit the horse, made a decisive low shot and successfully sent the football into the Liverpool goal!

Li Ang patted his head and pointed at Salah, who was running excitedly:

"You are catching Liverpool scoring goals now, aren't you?!"

If Li Ang remembers correctly, Salah has scored goals against Liverpool in several consecutive rounds!

This fact is too funny for Li Ang. Salah has become a veritable Liverpool killer?

This tmd...

However, complaints are complaints, and celebrations should be celebrated happily.

After breaking through Liverpool's goal first, the second half of the game was much simpler for the Chelsea team.

First, he withstood Liverpool's counterattack with ease and maintained the 1-0 score until the halftime break.

At the beginning of the second half, Chelsea launched their most familiar defensive counterattack.

Liverpool did try their best on the offensive end. They kept trying to find ways to pass the ball forward throughout the second half, but lacking more offensive backers, they really didn't have much to do with Chelsea's iron barrel formation.

When Klopp replaced Benteke in the second half, Mourinho also directly replaced Gary Cahill.

As a result, Benteke's advantage in fighting for the top disappeared directly in front of Maguire and Gary Cahill.

In the 76th minute of the second half, Li Ang seized the opportunity of Coutinho's passing error and sent a counterattack long pass. Llorente's header helped Hazard directly get a single chance!

The King of Belgium did not hesitate to face his national team teammates. A decisive shot made Liverpool lose the last hope of equalizing.

And Chelsea finally took away a 2-0 victory from Anfield!

After the game, Li Ang encouraged the slightly frustrated Firmino and Coutinho and cheered them on, wishing them to make it to the end in this year's Europa League.

His blessing made Liverpool's two young strikers feel a lot better.

After all, he is a well-known "famous speaker" in European football. If Liverpool can really win the Europa League this year, then they cannot be considered a failure in any case.

A European championship plus qualification for next season's Champions League, no matter how you calculate it, they are both very profitable!

Li Ang is not wrong, after all, he remembers that Liverpool had a chance to win the Europa League at the beginning of their rise.

Having reached the final, there is not much difference in strength between them and their opponents. With his butterfly effect, Liverpool may really reach the top of the Europa League this year.

Compared with other teams, if there is no conflict of interest, Li Ang will of course support Liverpool more.

The blessing he expressed towards Liverpool after the game also instantly gained the favor of the vast majority of Liverpool fans.

After the 30th round of the Premier League between Chelsea and Liverpool, the football world also ushered in another wave of public opinion carnival.

It has nothing to do with the progress of national leagues. This wave of public opinion carnival comes only because of the end of the Champions League quarter-final draw ceremony.

This year's Champions League knockout round is full of gold, and among the teams that made it to the final eight, only Benfica can be considered a "big gift package."

The remaining seven teams are Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid from La Liga, Chelsea and Manchester City from the Premier League, Bayern Munich from the Bundesliga and Juventus from Serie A.

Almost every draw will be a strong dialogue.

And when the old enemies Chelsea and Bayern Munich were drawn to face off again, the fans' discussion carnival officially arrived!

Li Ang is actually quite satisfied with the result of this draw.

Among the teams that have made it to the last eight of the Champions League this year, the only one with a similar strength to Chelsea is Bayern Munich!

Atletico Madrid's defensive system cannot cause Chelsea too much trouble. After two rounds of matches with Real Madrid, Chelsea is relatively confident of defeating the former Champions League hegemon.

Juventus lost Tevez and Pirlo in the summer window last year, and their offensive strength has dropped sharply. They don't seem to be afraid for the time being.

Only Bayern Munich and the Nandawang, who have continued to strengthen, are still the team that poses the greatest threat to Chelsea.

So instead of going all the way to the final with a fully evolved Bayern team, Li Ang felt it was better to kill it now!

After this battle, everything will be smooth!
