When Chen Yu woke up, he subconsciously touched his side. It was empty? No one. Chen Yu sat up in a panic. He clearly remembered that Lin Hong had come last night. Could it be that it was a dream? It was impossible. Chen Yu could still smell the faint smell of perfume on the bed, and there were still a few long hair on the bed. The most important thing was that the teeth marks on Chen Yu's shoulders were still aching.

She left? Thinking of this, Chen Yu immediately picked up his cell phone to read the text message.

Sure enough, Lin Hong sent him a text message, "I'm leaving, don't have any burden. Yesterday I just wanted to meet you. I did it. It's not the first time we can play well, maybe I'll go and see it."

Chen Yu sighed, feeling confused for a moment, and didn't know how to get along with Lin Hong in the future. Originally, Kayla Knightley and Zhao Muyu were enough to be upset, but now he has an old girlfriend.

However, Chen Yu is also a person who can take it and put it down. Since his relationship is already a mess, he no longer thinks about it. He gets up to wash his face, brush his teeth, goes out to have breakfast, and quickly drives to the Melwood training base.

Chen Yu got up a little late today. When he arrived, many of his teammates had arrived and were all preparing for activities.

This morning was the last training session before the game. The amount of training was not large. It was mainly to practice the tactics and cooperate with the game. The training ended early. Benitez and the coaching team gathered the players together for a pre-match mobilization meeting, and then the team flew to London to have lunch in the hotel booked in London.

While having dinner, head coach Benitez sat down next to Chen Yu. Chen Yu originally thought Benitez wanted to talk to him about the evening game, but he didn't expect that Benitez was not talking about it. He first praised his performance in the national team in circles, and finally told Chen Yu implicitly that Liverpool's salary structure is very good now, the players are united and defending the double championship is definitely not impossible.

Obviously, Benitez also knew that the club was negotiating a contract renewal and salary increase with Chen Yu's agent Zhang Shubin. Chen Yu is now in the limelight. If he really wants to make any unreasonable demands, the Liverpool Club is afraid that he will not dare to refuse.

What Benitez is most worried about now is that Chen Yu takes too high his salary, which makes Red Army bosses like Gerald and Carragher become jealous, so he implicitly hopes that Chen Yu will take care of his teammates' emotions and not speak loudly about the salary increase.

Chen Yu had no idea of ​​a lion talking big. When Zhang Shubin discussed this with him, he also said that it should not be too outrageous. As long as the salary is worthy of his current status, it is enough. Now that Benitez said this, Chen Yu was naturally happy to give a favor, and said that he knew that his own money was enough to spend it and would not make things difficult for the club and coaching staff on salary increase.

Although Chen Yu did not receive Chen Yu's verbal promise, Chen Yu's words of not making things difficult for the club and coaching staff on the salary increase made Benitez calm down.

Now the club's finances are in crisis. If the locker room cannot be stable, it will be difficult for Liverpool to achieve good results later. If the locker room is stable, even if the club's finances are in trouble, as long as the club does not owe to wages, Benitez can still guarantee the results.

The game between Chelsea and Liverpool is the focus battle and is held after all games. Before the game begins, Liverpool and Chelsea got good news. Manchester United lost the derby between Manchester United and Manchester City, which means that if Liverpool wins this game, they can open the gap between Manchester United by 6 points. If Chelsea wins this game, the gap between Chelsea and Manchester United will narrow to 1 point, which is an opportunity for both sides.

Of course, there is not only good news, but also bad news. For example, Arsenal, the youngest average age this season, has not fallen behind. This time he won Blackburn again at home, and directly caught up with Liverpool with points, but he is temporarily ranked second because of the number of goals.

In the locker room, Benitez told the players the news and said: "Manchester United is our biggest opponent. Chelsea's civil strife has not stopped. Arsenal is too young. Now Manchester United's capsizing is a major benefit for us. As long as we play steadily, Chelsea and Arsenal will definitely lose their chains later. In today's game, our first goal is not to win. Chelsea's points are 7 points away from us. They are the ones who urgently need to win. We just need to patience to fight back, and this is what we are best at."

I have to say that Benitez is still very attentive and calm. He did not lose his arrogance because of Liverpool's outstanding record. Facing his championship rival Chelsea, when his opponent experienced a coach change and his strength declined, Benitez still played steadily and was not in a hurry to win, but was preparing to use Chelsea's eagerness to win to win this focus battle.

Chelsea's head coach Grant is not as good as Benitez. Now Chelsea is seven points behind Liverpool. You must not lose this game. If you want to compete for the championship, you must win.

Since Grant replaced the madman Mourinho, although he has used Mourinho's original team, Mourinho's confidant has always been in line with him, and the team's performance is not good or bad. If this continues, Chelsea may be missing. This situation is absolutely unfavorable to Grant. He is just a fire-fighting coach now. If he wants to stay in this position, he must come up with results.

This battle with Liverpool was viewed as a decisive battle by Grant. If he wins this game, Grant will continue to capture both the league and the Champions League, and neither of them will give up. If he loses this game, he will completely give up the league and switch to the Cup. Not to mention whether he can win the Champions League, even if he wins the FA Cup, he can still add a weight to himself.

In the locker room, Grant also tried his best to carry out pre-war mobilization, but now Chelsea's main players still miss Mourinho and are not so close to him as the head coach. After Grant's words, only a few players applauded. Others changed their clothes and laces, as if they didn't hear them.

Grant was helpless, but there was no way. These people were Chelsea's backbone. Even if the boss fired him, he would not sell Terry and Drogba.

Chelsea attaches great importance to this game. The Stamford Bridge Stadium, which can accommodate 41,841 people, is full of people. Chelsea's team flags and banners for victory are flying everywhere in the stands. The security guards in the stands and stadiums are twice as many as usual. Before the game begins, Chelsea's team songs are always singing in the stands. This atmosphere sets up an ordinary league match like the final.

When Chelsea and Liverpool players came out of the locker room, the atmosphere on the scene became even more lively and the noise was so loud that all the voices of the on-site commentators were covered up.

This game is more like a life-and-death battle for Chelsea. The Blues soldiers all have serious eyes and are serious, as if they are going to the battlefield. Liverpool players are much more relaxed. They not only joke with each other, but young players such as Pennant and Babel also give kisses to Liverpool fans in the stands, completely feeling like they don’t take this focus game to heart.

Seeing Liverpool players relaxed so much, the commentator of Sky Sports couldn't help but worry about Chelsea, "...The two teams have 7 points apart, and there are 12 league rounds left. If Chelsea loses in this game, the league championship will basically be out of the way. In desperate situation, Chelsea may be able to burst out with huge potential, but it may also be about to collapse. Now, after leaving Mourinho, the locker room is already full of mountains. It is probably difficult to unite and fight a tough battle. Liverpool is not easy to mess with. Chelsea at the peak cannot guarantee victory. This time it is afraid there will be more dangers... "

However, Duan Xuan, a commentator from China, did not think so. He felt that Liverpool was a little too relaxed today. If he couldn't get nervous during the game, Chelsea, who had no way out, might give them a head-on blow.

Before the game started, fans and relevant personnel from both sides were worried about the team they supported, but after the game started, they found that the giant team was a giant team. No matter what their emotions were before the game, they immediately put aside their emotions after the game started and played in an orderly manner according to the coach's arrangement.

In this game, Chelsea played with the determination to either die or break the net. If you win, you will continue to compete for the league championship. If you lose, you will give up the league. With 7 points behind the top and 12 rounds left, it is understandable for a firefighting coach to make such a choice.

Although many of Chelsea's players are unwilling to accept Grant's disagreement, Chelsea has now reached a situation of fighting against the enemy. If they don't put all their energy into playing this game well, even if Grant will be dismissed later, as players, they are afraid they will not have any good results.

With the advantage of home games, the players can work together. After the opening game, Chelsea quickly took the initiative and the ball was basically controlled by their feet.

This is different from Chelsea in Mourinho's era. Mourinho doesn't care about putting the ball at his feet. He prefers quick counterattack after stealing. Chelsea under Grant's command no longer has such strong defensive ability, so it becomes very important to compete for more ball.

Although Liverpool is passive, the players are mentally prepared. Before the game, head coach Benitez also conducted training in this area. The players' mentality is not panic, and they dealt with each other in an orderly manner. They launch a quick counterattack when they grab the ball. Although they are at a disadvantage in the scene, the actual threat is not worse than that of Chelsea.
