The Ball at Your Feet

~: Episode 639

In the new season, Baynes was loaned out by the team. After all, he is still young. It is good for him to play more games elsewhere. m. Among the rest, Zhao Yaning estimated that Carson, Bruno, Aveiroa and Walcott would all have to sit on a lot of benches. They are young after all and need experience. As for Fowler and Figo, it is estimated that their playing time will be reduced accordingly. After all, they are getting older and older, and they will certainly not have too many main opportunities. What Zhao Yaning is not sure about is whether Kuyt can adapt to the Premier League as soon as possible at the forward line, squeezing Milito out of him as the starter, and at the midfield line, whether Mascherano can squeeze out Sissoko and become the starter. .

Milito was injured in the last game. Although it was just a simple muscle strain and the injury was stopped for half a month, it was enough to make the team doctors very nervous: after the FA game, it is often a wave of injuries. Now Milito's injury is obvious. It's a signal, and it's hard to say whether anyone will be injured in the future.

The competition between these two positions is still fierce. Both Sissoko and Milito played very well last season. Although the two of them are not without flaws, at least in Liverpool, they are meritorious players and are with the team. It fits perfectly. Although Mascherano and Kuyt are powerful internationals, it is difficult to say whether they can adapt to the Premier League. After watching Kuyt's play, Zhao Yaning was very surprised anyway-not because of his excellence, but because of his poor technique. Mascherano is an Argentine after all. Generally speaking, not many South American players can adapt to the intense rhythm of the Premier League. Therefore, it is still doubtful that these two people can be integrated into the team.

But this also gave Kuyt a chance to start. After all, Milito is injured and can't let Fowler start playing the single arrow. This change makes Sissoko very envious, and now, in his position, sitting in a rotation of 20 million, makes him a little awkward.

Moreover, after Mascherano arrived at Liverpool, his teammates were extremely surprised by the first training.

"Is the Argentine talent blowout now, to the point where you can't play the main force with a skill like yours?" The teammates were extremely surprised by his level.

He and Sissoko are two players. Sissoko's physical fitness is not generally good. He is surprisingly strong. When he steals opponents, it is also very easy and simple, because his interception efficiency is incredible. Therefore, his teammates are also willing to tolerate him. Some minor issues. Such as the difficulty of the ball, Zhao Yaning needs a lot of retracement, and the defensive position is average, Alonso has to pay attention to fills: these problems, teammates are willing to help him, as long as he can make good use of his steal advantage , Intercepting in the midfield like a mad dog is enough to satisfy the teammates.

But Mascherano is different from him: his physical fitness is obviously not as good as Sissoko, and his playing style is not as simple and rough as Sissoko. However, in terms of playing cleverness, he can't match Sissoko. He has excellent defensive predictions and decisive steals, both in technique and consciousness. Moreover, there is no problem with his character. Although he is a big-name signing, he is very willing to give Alonso a hand, do the dirty work of defense in the backcourt, and have a high degree of understanding with Alonso. //m//Moreover, he also has a good ability to play the ball. In terms of a defensive midfielder, except that his figure is a little shorter and there are problems with the header, there seems to be no flaws in all other aspects. .

If Sissoko prefers Essien who has no offensive ability, then Mascherano is more like a young and famous version of Makelele.

"Argentina has a lot of talents, and I haven't done well enough." Mascherano just smiled for Garcia's question.

His temper is quite good. The Liverpool players, because Sissoko has been on the team longer, they still prefer Sissoko more on the issue of who will play. Although Mascherano has shown his temperament and tactical ability. A better place than Sissoko, but after all, he has not yet integrated into the team. Moreover, when he first arrived in the Premier League, he was not well adapted to the Premier League's rhythm and penalties. When he played, he liked tackles. There were still problems. . His teammates have been constantly giving opinions to him, and these have not disgusted Mascherano. On the one hand, he listened to his teammates, and on the other hand, he still played very hard and did not have any football. The air of a talented star from a powerful country, which made his teammates feel good about him soon.

This is an honest man-soon, he gave everyone this impression.

And soon, in the fourth round against Newcastle, he also got a chance to play.

And the first Premier League game he just played was when he met Michael Owen.

After spending a summer and undergoing surgery in the United States, Michael Owen has now regained his chance to play. And as long as he can still play, he will definitely be the focus in the game between Newcastle and Liverpool.

But in this game, Liverpool fans have ignored him: with the league champion, something that Irving has not obtained in his life, the Liverpool fans have also left him behind. In this game, Irving's level of performance also left the Newcastle fans speechless.

"Michael Owen was very tightly guarded by Mascherano in this game-it seems that the Argentine players and Owen do have a lot of grudges. He obviously paid little attention to Owen."

Almost all of Irving's running positions in the game were predicted by Mascherano. And after several attempts to break through with the ball, he was successfully intercepted by Mascherano.

Although it’s not news that Irving was stopped by someone, Mascherano, as an Argentine who had just arrived in Europe, played so well in the first game and defended England’s top striker so well. Many people are surprised.

The strength of this player is indeed not to be underestimated. Although Owen has gotten older and injured more and his speed has slowed down, his biggest killer has been exhausted. However, his shooting skills and awareness are still there, and he has a good running position. Although he is no longer a world-class striker, he still has no problems with being a first-class striker in the Premier League. But in this game, he was blocked to death, which also made people watching the game feel unusually excited.

After all, Irving is Newcastle's all means of attack, he is now restricted to death, and naturally made the entire team's attack misfired.

On the other hand, Liverpool's attack did not have any problems. Just ten minutes into the game, Zhao Yaning's kick passed into the penalty area. Figo, who received the ball, kept the ball and turned around to shoot and blasted the ball into the goal.

Then, before the intermission, Zhao Yaning once again slammed into the penalty area. This time, Gerrard's shot broke the opponent's gate.

Leading the opponent 2-0 in the first half allowed Liverpool to make adjustments early in the second half. This time, Walcott replaced Figo.

Less than three minutes after the start of the second half, Kuyt kicked the ball directly after receiving a pass from Zhao Yaning.

This is really... Zhao Yaning sighed, but still turned his mind.

After moving from Kuyt to Liverpool, what he was thinking about was how to pass the ball to Kuyt so that Kuyt could become a good scorer for the team. But Zhao Yaning himself has to admit that he does not know Kuyt's playing habits very well. The reason why he feels that the opponent is a good player is actually because of the two hats of the Dutch international and the top scorer of the Eredivisie. Since the top scorer of the Eredivisie has played Van Basten, Romario, Ronaldo and other figures, Zhao Yaning also feels that he should also be a good shooter.

After all, it's not bad for a shooter who can score 25 goals in a season.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yaning was still a little unconvinced. Since he can score 25 goals in the Eredivisie, that is to say, he still has some abilities. Since he has the ability, he should activate him, saying that others are not suitable, that is not a skill. Benitez said before the season that he wanted Kuyt to score 15 goals in a single season. Zhao Yaning was also thinking about it and working towards this goal. Since others can make him score, Zhao Yaning asks himself, he can also make him score.

Zhao Yaning also figured it out. Since he can't be used as a pure point-grabbing shooter like Milito, then let yourself see if he can be activated from another angle. Thinking of this, Zhao Yaning was no longer anxious, instead relying on running positions and passing the ball, he was observing on his own. And soon, he connected all kinds of impressions of Kuyt these days.

His speed is not fast, and his body is not strong. But his game attitude and physical ability are really scary.

To see whether a person's attitude towards the game is very good, the most important thing is two points, one is running and the other is anti-grab. Some players play very well, but they are always accused of not being serious in the game because they are not active in running and defensively. For example, Ronaldo, Real Madrid's new head coach Capello this season, accused him of not running as much as Casillas, and the older Romario, not to mention, is the iconic running laziness. Character, walking kick is what people think of him.

And the anti-grab is not active, it is an important problem of modern football. Whether it can actively counter-grab, often determines the hardness of a team, which is also crucial for modern football.

And Kuyt's work in these two aspects ~lightnovelpub.net~ is almost impeccable. Although his speed is not fast, the audience is almost running at a constant speed-that is to say, when this guy is not slowing down at all, he has been running with all his heart.

On the other hand, his anti-robbing is also extremely active. He stopped the ball very badly, always unable to stop the ball, but as long as he lost the ball, he would immediately be able to initiate the first counter grab and grab the ball back immediately.

This is an extremely hard-working person. Intuition tells Zhao Yaning that he will also become Zhao Yaning's favorite teammate: a forward who likes to run and is willing to counter-robbing is rare for wide players like Zhao Yaning who likes to cut baby. He can create enough opportunities for Zhao Yaning. Although he can't grasp the opportunities, it can indeed be of great help.

The key to such a teammate is how to tap his potential. And Zhao Yaning believes that he definitely has a way to notice his advantages and tap his potential.

This is my core mission.

Soon, Gerrard made a pass to the penalty area. This time, Kuyt grabbed a point. He stretched out his foot and caught the ball with one foot. The ball flew in front of him. There, Zhao Yaning had already waited. After receiving the ball, he took a shot and broke again. The opponent's door!

"Well, how did you know that I would pass the ball!" Kuyt laughed.

As long as you are three meters in front of you, you will automatically stop the ball to me with a stop-Zhao Yaning thought so in his heart, but did not say it.

In fact, at this time, he has discovered a great advantage of Kuyt on the offensive end: Although his technique is not good, his running position is also quite good.
