Chapter 136 Prelude to the English Double Red Society
October 1, 2016.
With the end of international competitions, the main players of Premier League clubs have returned one after another.
At the same time, Manchester and Liverpool, two major cities in England, were also caught in a tense and irritable atmosphere.
Everyone can feel that there is a strong smell of gunpowder in the air.
Because on October 15th, the eighth round of the Premier League, England is about to usher in a hot El Clasico that has attracted worldwide attention.
Liverpool VS Manchester United.
This game is also called the Double Red Club by fans, the English National Derby, etc.
There are historical reasons behind the century-old rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester United.
If we want to trace the origin of the two sides becoming mortal enemies, the relationship between the two sides should have started in 1894.
Manchester and Liverpool are neighboring sister cities in northwest England.
One is a world-famous port city, and the other is a world-famous industrial city.
They were originally a golden couple, but in 1894 the two cities were at loggerheads over a canal.
The construction of the famous Manchester Canal in Manchester directly led to the plummeting status of the Port of Liverpool and a large number of people lost their jobs.
Since then, the hatred between the two cities has lasted for hundreds of years.
Whenever Liverpool meets Manchester United in the league, the double red meeting is no longer just a football matter, but a confrontation and game between the two cities.
This game made Klopp very embarrassed. He was hesitating about what lineup to field!
Because the 19th is the third round of the Champions League group stage, they are about to go to Germany for an away game, and they will play the old Bundesliga powerhouse Bayer Leverkusen.
In the first two rounds of the Champions League group stage, Leverkusen showed very strong strength in the games against Monaco and CSKA Moscow.
The current qualifying situation in Group E is confusing, and everyone has a chance to qualify.
CSKA Moscow ranks first in the group with 1 win, 1 draw and 4 points. Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen are ranked second and third with two draws, and Liverpool is at the bottom.
Therefore, Liverpool must not allow any more mistakes in this Champions League group match.
If they lose another away game, they may completely lose hope of qualifying and be forced to compete for third place in the Europa League.
But if Klopp chooses to give up the league, it is simply impossible.
Not to mention that the top management of Liverpool Football Club would not let him do this, even the saliva from outside fans and media could drown him out.
After Klopp thought about it in the office for half an hour, he suddenly became happy and then called the club's public relations director Max.
The two conspired in the office all morning, and they didn't know what they talked about.
But the next morning, the English media reported overwhelmingly on a series of negative news about Manchester United, uncovering Manchester United's losses in major competitions over the years one by one, and then criticized them.
The new Manchester United coach, the Portuguese madman, and the senior management of the Manchester United club are inseparable because of the FA Cup title they lost last season.
There is discord in the Manchester United dressing room, with new signing Pogba showing off his big name and competing with Rooney.
There are endless news about old players being dissatisfied with the new coach for putting them on the bench.
Not only that, the billboard outside Anfield Stadium was suddenly replaced with a huge black and white photo overnight.
The background of the photo is a game that looks very long ago, and the score of 7-1 specially marked in large red fonts is very conspicuous.
Liverpool fans laughed like crazy when they saw this banner photo!
This was the first time Liverpool met Manchester United in the then English Second Division on October 1, 1895, and they directly slaughtered Manchester United.
This is a corpse whip!
Countless Red Army fans were overjoyed with this sudden move by the club!
Thumbs up for approval!
When Mourinho found out about the Manchester United club in the next city, he smelled a hint of conspiracy, and he immediately counterattacked.
And using the same method, they quickly put up an old photo of the 5-match match on the billboard at Stamford Bridge to fight back against Liverpool and boost the morale of Manchester United players and fans!
And he went directly to the field to blast Klopp!
"Mourinho: German football is too barbaric and rough, with no art at all, just like the Bundesliga!!"
Klopp on the Liverpool side did not end up after seeing it. He has never used social media very much, but he still let the club speak.
"Liverpool: What Klopp advocates is offensive football! Attack is art! We at Liverpool will never cower! We will not cower in the penalty area and let people attack wildly outside the penalty area! No matter what the situation is, our Red Army will move forward.
!》
Liverpool's reply immediately made countless fans who follow these two rival clubs laugh like crazy. It was tantamount to calling Mu Bird a tortoise.
After Mourinho saw this reply, he almost vomited blood instantly. He hated others saying that his tactics were turtle tactics.
In Mourinho's tactical philosophy, defense is the ultimate art of football.
Then the two clubs started spitting at each other on social media, which made other fans in England fly with excitement.
By the end of the rant, fans from both sides had already left the field, and it was directly blamed on the players!
"Pogba! The No. 1 midfielder in the world? He is just a huge parallel import bought for 100 million euros! A midfielder who needs to bring his own engineers when playing. Compared with our almighty Yang, he is more than one level behind
!》
"Yang? Are you talking about the Chinese midfielder with only 0 million? Sorry! I don't know what honors this Chinese has won! British Championship? Hahahahaha!..."
So fans of Liverpool and Manchester United began to criticize each other like shrews on the Internet, detailing the shortcomings and pain of each player.
"Jurgen! You are playing with fire!"
In Klopp's office, Peter was sitting in front of Klopp's desk, looking at Klopp who was watching the game online with a dirty smile and a look of constipation on his face.
"It's okay! Hehe!" Klopp laughed out loud!
This is his true purpose!
He just wants to arouse the anger of Manchester United fans and the anger of Manchester United players.
Then use the pressure of public opinion from all aspects to put pressure on Manchester United's senior management and Mourinho.
Because he is afraid that the Portuguese will try to trick him again in tomorrow's game and act like a coward.
Once this situation enters, it will be very detrimental to Liverpool.
Attacking tough battles has always been the most energy-consuming and physically demanding game in football. If you are not careful, you may be attacked by surprise, resulting in the loss of the game.
He definitely doesn't want to see this scene play out!
Because he must win the European war on the 19th!
Therefore, in this Premier League double-red meeting, he must solve Manchester United quickly and neatly, without involving too much energy from Mo Yang and the others.
It would be best to provoke Mourinho to lose his mind and start an offensive battle with him in tomorrow's game.
What his team is least afraid of is offensive battles!
And once the situation is as he expected, he will completely liberate Mo Yang.
He wants all the clubs in the Premier League to see what is the Premier League's top midfielder and what is the Premier League's nuclear bomb-level attacking power.
Now that everything that can be done has been done, it just depends on whether Manchester United and Mourinho will take the bait!
"Hey!" Klopp stared at the computer and kept laughing.
Peter covered his forehead and shook his head with a bitter smile. There was really nothing he could do against this naughty guy.
But at the same time, he also felt a little sad for Klopp!
Peter hasn't seen Klopp use this method in many years! He may have been forced by this intensive and difficult schedule.
Therefore, it is not easy to be a head coach, especially for a wealthy club. This is the real reason why he has been willing to assist Klopp. (To be continued)
