At this time, the Liverpool team began to march towards Moscow, Russia.
Because this season's UEFA Champions League final will be held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia. That's why Liverpool rushed to Moscow.
The whole world has focused its attention on the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia, because the final of the 2007-2008 UEFA Champions League will be held here. The two teams facing each other are Manchester United from the Premier League and Liverpool, also from the Premier League!
And just as the world is focusing its attention on the Luzhniki Stadium, major media around the world are also reporting on this game.
"The Sun", "Mirror", "The Guardian", "The Times", "AS", "Marca", "European Deportivo", "Bild", "Gazzetta dello Sport", "
Corriere dello Sport", "Kicker", "Team", "Sports Weekly", Xinhua News Agency, Associated Press and other newspapers are all paying attention to the European Champions League final, the last and most important game of the season.
.
Media all over the world have focused their attention on this game, reporting on the situation of the two teams and some extraneous news. Now this game is becoming more and more popular, even surpassing the upcoming European Cup.
With media reports, the game is getting closer and closer, and both teams are heading to Moscow, Russia.
The first team to come to Moscow, Russia is the Red Devils Manchester United. All the players of the Red Devils Manchester United will go to Moscow with the team. Almost all the players in the team are ready to play, except for the injured Brown and Paul Scholes.
People will definitely not be able to go to war.
However, they still came to Moscow, and together with the team, no one from the Manchester United first team was left behind. However, these two people were still unable to play, which is definitely very bad news for the Red Devils Manchester United.
Originally, Manchester United people believed that Paul Scholes could return from injury before the game. However, judging from the current situation, this seems to be very difficult. The importance of Paul Scholes to Manchester United is not obvious.
It goes without saying that he was unable to play in this game, which is a very big regret for Manchester United.
"The Sun" revealed that it is obvious that Manchester United cannot play against Liverpool like they did against Barcelona. In their view, Carrick is likely to replace the injured Paul Scholes in the starting lineup, and the young teenager
Rafael will also get a chance to start.
This will inevitably affect the strength of Manchester United. After all, no one can replace Scholes' role in Manchester United's midfield. Although Alex Ferguson is looking for many replacements for Scholes, like Ferguson
Lesbian, Anderson, Carrick and Hargreaves are all. However, now these people are unable to achieve the results that everyone expected.
This is why at this time, Alex Ferguson frequently showed favor to Qiu Ze and frequently disclosed their interest in Qiu Ze in front of the media.
And as early as in the statistics of the "Guardian", Scholes is the player who passes the most passes per unit of time and has the highest forward pass success rate among all Manchester United midfielders, even though he has three goals and four assists in the Champions League.
The data is not particularly dazzling, but Manchester United has more than ten Champions League goals, and it was Scholes who completed the penultimate pass before shooting.
In addition, Scholes's average of one frontcourt steal in thirty-two minutes in the league is also very strong. Moreover, Scholes' role in Manchester United's midfield cannot be explained by these simple statistics.
His role is much greater than these simple data.
The absence of Paul Scholes is the biggest loss for Manchester United. "Gazzetta dello Sport" believes that Fletcher is too rough and makes too many mistakes compared to Scholes; Hargreaves is better than Scholes.
Coles has poor positional sense and insufficient organizational skills. Not to mention Anderson, he is very far behind.
Among these people, Carrick is slightly better. Now Alex Ferguson has no choice but to choose this guy. He has no other choice.
Yes, Manchester United will have an incomplete lineup for the last important game. Similarly, Liverpool will also have an incomplete lineup for the Champions League final. Liverpool's Dutch winger Kuyt will be suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards, which makes Rafael
?Benitez has a headache.
Although Kuyt's performance in Liverpool's formation is not very amazing, his role is very big. Kuyt's role is completely overshadowed by the radiant Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres, so now
When everyone looks at this guy, they seem to think that with or without him, Liverpool's team would not have much impact.
Actually, this is very incorrect. Kuyt's style of play is the same as his performance, simple and unpretentious. He is not the kind of talented player. However, he is definitely the kind of player who is very hard-working.
Kuyt dares to run and fight on the court. From the moment he comes on the field, he keeps running and fighting. And you can see him in both offense and defense, and the most important thing about this guy is
It was his counterattack. Many times, Liverpool's offense originated from Kuyt's counterattack.
Kuyt is very important to Liverpool. He is irreplaceable on the wing. Therefore, the Dutchman's suspension at this time is also a very big loss for Liverpool.
According to statistics provided by the "Mirror", the Dutchman is the player in Liverpool's team who runs second only to captain Gerrard. Moreover, this guy is the player with the highest number of steals and steal success rate in Liverpool's team. He is on the sidelines.
Lu's offense and defense are both excellent, and he is definitely an indispensable part of Liverpool.
At this time, the "Mirror" believes that Liverpool's head coach Benitez is likely to replace Kuyt with Kuyt's compatriot Babel. Although the two have different characteristics, Babel is faster and faster.
The attack is sharper, which may be a good thing for Liverpool.
At this time, the "Times" gave a different prediction than the "Mirror" because they believed that Liverpool might not let Babel take the top spot. The main reason is that Babel is still too young and has no experience in competitions.
, it is unrealistic to send him up at this time.
"The Times" believes that Liverpool may choose to change their formation in this game. Perhaps Benitez will play a double forward and let Fernando Torres and Crouch start together. After all, Crouch has been in good form recently.
The probability of starting is still very high.
The game has not even started yet, and all kinds of rumors are flying. At this time, the major media have disclosed their guessed starting lineup. However, the head coaches of the two teams have not expressed anything. They prefer to focus on the game.
In the previous spat.
Using remarks to anger or put pressure on opponents before a game is a trick that many head coaches often use. And this trick is very common and very easy to use.
During the media opening day, Manchester United head coach Alex Ferguson took a dig at Liverpool and said: "We, Manchester United, are not the kind of team that stumbles through the Champions League group stages, let alone the kind of team that relies on buying balls to advance.
.We are fully prepared for this game and have full advantages. The winner will definitely be our Manchester United team!"
These words caused an uproar. Those who revealed Alex Ferguson's words one after another, and the major media outlets appeared one after another with news about Liverpool's match-fixing, and this news was already about Liverpool's ten-goal victory over Betaxis.
This is already old news, but it is still being hyped up by these media at this time, which is really annoying.
"Kuyt's suspension was the right decision." Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson said, "The penalty is fair. I watched the video of Kuyt's foul. It was a dangerous foul.
In that case, it is normal to suspend him for two or three games. Maybe this punishment is a bit harsh, but some things should be avoided and must be avoided. Otherwise, when something happens, it will be difficult to deal with.
"The implication is that Kuyt shouldn't play in the final, why are Liverpool still clamoring?
Alex Ferguson seemed to feel that this was not enough, and he continued: "Well, what I want to say is that Manchester United has always been interested in Chris. He is a very good player with strength and ability.
Ability and potential, this is the player we really need, and we are now working on bringing him in."
Well, now Mr. Alex Ferguson is talking about the introduction of Qiu Ze again. This is not news. Alex Ferguson has been clamoring for the introduction of Qiu Ze recently. He did not expect that at this time,
He would still say that.
And at this time, he also said that at this time they had already made an offer to Liverpool. This time Manchester United's offer was 45 million, and they hoped to introduce Qiu Ze.
When Qiu Ze joined Liverpool, it was only 30 million euros. Just one season later, Qiu Ze's value has increased by 15 million. Liverpool has made a lot of money from this business. Manchester United hopes that Liverpool will hurry up
Take action and give Qiu Ze to them.
This made Liverpool fans very unhappy, and they all criticized Manchester United's actions. Some guys even threatened Alex Ferguson crazily, and some even issued death threats directly to Alex Ferguson.
.
"What are you talking about, 40,500,000 euros? Are you begging? Do you think 40,500,000 euros is a lot? Compared with Chris, that's scum! Do you understand scum?" Raphael
?Benitez roared very angrily, "I have said it before, 100 million pounds! As long as you come up with 100 million pounds, Chris will be yours! If you can't come up with 100 million pounds! You...
Damn it, don’t act like a beggar pretending to be rich! Go ahead and pick up your rags when you should! Stop fucking being disgusting here! Let me tell you, do you think you are trying to show your kindness to Chris?
You're fucking insulting Chris! Chris is worth a hundred million!"
When arriving in Moscow, Russia, Rafael Benitez did not hold back and continued: "Of course, you can also exchange it for Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney. Although their worth is compared with
Qiu Zelai is still a little behind, but I can sell you a favor, charge you a little less, and I suffer a little loss, how about that?"
Before the game even started, the head coaches of both sides started a crazy verbal spat, which made the fans onlookers excited, and everyone was looking forward to this battle of the century.
