This season's Liverpool, in terms of staffing, is definitely the strongest level in Europe today! Although the signings of several players in the summer transfer window are not satisfied with the rhythm of Liverpool's game, for example, the striker Keane, who was extremely hot at Tottenham last season, came to Liverpool for less than half a season, and he was low again. The price was sold back to Tottenham, but the strength of Liverpool's starting lineup has not been affected too much!

The main goalkeeper has excellent Reina in charge! The Spanish goalkeeper has made great achievements in keeping the goal for Liverpool in recent years! At the peak of his career!

In the midfield position, Xavi Alonso, Gerrard, Mascherano, these three midfielders, are all well-known midfield star players in world football. Unlike Chelsea’s defensive midfielder combination, Liverpool’s midfielders all have good offensive capabilities!

At the forward line, Liverpool’s most important thing is of course the Spanish golden boy Torres! The striker kills all quarters in Liverpool this season. No one can ignore the trouble such an excellent striker will cause to his defense!

The rest of the main players are also international players, including Yang Feng’s former teammate Scott, Liverpool legendary defender Carragher, Spain international Real Madrid’s Averoa and more!

Although Liverpool lacked the stamina in the league this season and did not retain the advantage of leading the standings at the beginning of the season. It seems that they still cannot win the first league title of their team in the Premier League era, but you can’t deny that Liverpool is in some Outstanding performance in key games!

After all, Benitez’s tactical preparation takes time. For some mid-range teams in the league, it is impossible for Benitez to allow the team to switch tactical styles freely in just one week in every league!

But for some key games, tough games, and games that give Liverpool more preparation time, Benitez can fully show his tactical talent!

You know, just two weeks ago, Liverpool beat the "Red Devils" Manchester United 4-1 at Old Trafford and completed a double play against their arch rivals Manchester United this season!

Even if Manchester United will have a high probability of winning three consecutive Premier League titles this season, being double-killed by Liverpool will definitely make this Premier League championship season bleak!

Chelsea is cautiously preparing for the two-round match with Liverpool! And Hiddink is considering whether to use some unexpected tactics to catch Liverpool by surprise at Anfield!

In the face of Benitez’s targeted arrangement, it is better than Manchester United who are always deflated in the game. Hiddink doesn’t want to be passive, especially in the away game. If Liverpool is really beaten up by Liverpool, it will be resolved in one go. Then there is really no place to reason!

At the regular press conference before the UEFA Champions League, Hiddink humbly put a top hat on Liverpool and Benitez!

"Liverpool is currently the best team in Europe. No team is willing to meet them at this time. And Chelsea lost to Liverpool twice this season. Our goal at Anfield is to get 1 point, but this It will be very difficult. Because Benitez is very good at dealing with this kind of knockout format."

Hiddink hopes to use his low profile to make Liverpool proud and despise Chelsea, and hopes that this move can successfully arouse the fighting spirit of Chelsea players, so that all players can use their 100% strength to come to Anfield for the knockout. Lay the foundation for the promotion!

At this time, Liverpool, because they have just defeated their inexhaustible rival Manchester United in the league, and have won 5 consecutive victories in all competitions, they indeed have arrogant capital!

It's just that in the second round of the Champions League against Real Madrid in the last round of the knockout round, Liverpool's core midfielder Mascherano received a yellow card. This game will be suspended, which is the biggest impact on Liverpool! However, at Anfield, Liverpool is not afraid of any opponents. Any opponent at home at the terrifying Anfield will be eliminated by the "Red Army" Liverpool!

On the day of the game, Hiddink dragged his starting list to the last moment before handing it over to UEFA officials. In the starting lineup of this game, Hiddink finally decided to take a risk and made a very huge change. When the team announced the starting a few days ago, it was beyond the expectations of everyone in the Chelsea team!

In the last round of the Premier League away game against Newcastle, Hiddink retired Drogba, Ballack, and the main right back Bosingwa, who was almost fully attending this season. Everyone believed that Hiddink was playing for the Champions League. Stay strong and prepare to let the three maintain their fullest state to face Liverpool!

It's just that everyone can't imagine that among the three, there is actually a smoke bomb that Hiddink carefully prepared!

Bosingwa! In the crucial first round of this game, Bosingwa was actually pressed on the bench by Hiddink and replaced by Serbian Ivanovic!

In this game, Russian coach Hiddink chose to let himself watch the Russian Super League match, leaving a deep impression on Ivanovic, starting the game and acting as a surprise soldier in Chelsea's transformation!

When commentators from all over the world got the starting roster of the two teams, the first reaction was that Chelsea’s Bosingwa was injured? But when I saw Bosingwa appearing on the bench, I felt that Hiddink must have had his brains. At such a critical moment of the game, he actually broke his team's slightly stable lineup on the away game by himself! The one who chose to play was Ivanovic who played very few times and did not perform well on the court!

The position of the head coach does require great courage and courage when it needs to be changed. Hiddink, the "fire fighting" coach, doesn't have to think about so much. He just needs to consider his own job football during these few months. He needs the most suitable personnel for the current game!

Except for the right back who unexpectedly chose to use Ivanovic! On the forward line, Hiddink also abandoned Anelka, who was in hot form this season, but chose to use Drogba and Wannian substitute forward Kalu!

The four midfielders Lampard, Ballack, Malouda and Essien each perform their duties!

On the back line, except for Ivanovic, the left back is still Ashley Cole, and the center back is Yang Feng and Terry partner!

The goalkeeper is still playing a stable Czech goalkeeper Cech!

The 442 formation, the most surprising is Ivanovic's appearance, followed by Kalu replaced Anelka to get the first chance!

However, no one would have thought that Chelsea’s starting list reported the 442 formation, and the player configuration also tends to the 442 formation used in these games, but in fact, Chelsea is preparing to play the more powerful 433 formation in this game. !

In this game, Malouda was not as usual in the midfield position, acting as a wing attacker on the wing, but the position was even more advanced, and Hiddink was assigned to the wing forward position!

Hiddink made these three changes, hoping to get a head start in the away game!

Benitez's nickname is the master of tactics, but the master of tactics is not a prophet!

In view of the abundant reserves of Chelsea midfielders, Benitez did foresee many possibilities for Chelsea's tactical changes and made many corresponding tactical preparations!

But letting a substitute right back Ivanovic, who played very little this season and only played a few league games before, started the game, which is not what Benitez expected!

For a coach like Benitez who likes to delve into tactics, what he is best at is to plan ahead and prepare for many possible situations before the game, but when faced with emergencies, he may not be able to be on the spot. Find out the countermeasures for unexpected situations in a short time!

One hour before the start of the match, after Liverpool got Chelsea’s starting roster, Benitez was also shocked~lightnovelpub.net~ for the sudden change of the opponent's right back, but after all, the football game is not a strategy simulation game. , Tactically, since you don’t understand the opponent’s intentions, then stick to your own style of play to break the opponent’s conspiracy. This is Anfield, the home of Liverpool's devil!

Mascherano’s yellow card suspension may indeed have a great impact on Liverpool’s midfield defense, but Liverpool’s Anfield’s main purpose is of course to attack. They must be in the voice of their fans. , And strive to accumulate enough lead to lay the foundation for the lead to Stamford Bridge in a week!

Liverpool's lineup selection is still the 442 lineup used this season!

Goalkeeper Reina!

On the back line, Aveiroa, Scotter, Carragher, Aurelio line up from right to left!

The midfielder, due to Mascherano's suspension, gave Lucas a starting opportunity! The other three are Gerrard, Harvey Alonso, and left forward Lieira!

The double forward is of course Torres and Dutch international Kuyt!

The position of Kuyt, the right winger, can be withdrawn later at any time and change the formation to 451 to cope with different situations on the field!

In the player channel before the game, Yang Feng also deliberately had a conversation with his teammate, who fought side by side at Zenit last season, Scotter. The two chatted about the bad weather in England, the unpleasant food, and Many unsuitable topics in life in the UK!

Of course, just chatting, the battle is about to start, and the two of them silenced afterwards and devoted themselves to the preparation for the game!

In the 08/09 season, the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, Liverpool vs Chelsea's first leg match, will start on time at Anfield Stadium!
