Football: The strongest post-zero generation

Klopp looked at the Manchester United starting list handed over by Bouvac, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and it was not difficult to see that Li Qing's excellent performance during this period of time made Mourinho, who had always been cautious, a little conservative.

The formation is the most popular three-four-three in the Premier League recently, goalkeeper David De Gea, three central defenders Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Marcos Rojo, three midfielders Darmian, Paul Pogba, Herrera and Valencia, and three strikers Rashford, Ibrahimovic and Mkhitaryan.

It is easy to see that Mourinho's lineup is mainly defensive, in addition to preventing the uncertainty caused by Li Qing's debut, a big reason is that Manchester United just played the first leg of the Europa League 1/8 final with Rostov in Russia three days ago, and the physical fatigue caused by the long journey is more obvious.

In any case, Mourinho's starting lineup is undefeated, but the specific effect will still have to wait for the game to verify.

Li Qing and the Liverpool players showed up at Old Trafford to warm up, and the stands on all sides accommodated eighty percent of the fans, and when the players from both sides returned to the dressing rooms one after another, the stadium entered a full state.

The on-site director has very sharp eyes, and a number of celebrities of the Double Red Club of this game appeared in the stadium stands, Manchester United's former meritorious coach Alex Ferguson, Bobby Charlton and his wife all appeared in the VIP box of the stadium, Liverpool celebrities John Barnes, Carragher, Gerrard and others did not have this treatment, they were sitting in the Liverpool fan area.

......

Li Qing unhurriedly put on a gray undershirt with long sleeves, and then put on the third away jersey with a combination of fluorescent green and dark gray, Arnold touched Li Qing with his elbow next to him: "Li, why aren't you excited at all?"

"What's there to be excited about?"

Li Qing was a little speechless, his face was not red, and his heart was not beating: "In the future, you will find that it is normal for my brother and me to enter the starting list." "

"Brother?"

Arnold rolled his eyes: "You're three years younger than me!"

"Isn't strength respected in the football circle, I'm much better than you, so ......"

Li Qing bent down to put on fluorescent green socks, raised his head and squeezed his eyebrows at Arnold: "That's right...... Can I borrow your hairspray for me?"

Arnold: "......"

Jurgen Klopp had some time to get his players in order before talking about the tactics of the game, and as some of the biggest stars in world football, they definitely wanted to make a good impression in front of the fans.

Even Jurgen Klopp came to Liverpool as a manager and consciously cherished his image, he used to be a manager at Dortmund with a mouthful of yellow teeth, and now?

The whiteness of the teeth is second only to Firmino, the first white tooth in the team.

In addition, Firmino's big bag was still squeezed with a bunch of hairspray in his hand, as if he didn't want money to wipe his head, until he looked at the meticulousness presented by the mirror and tapped his head with satisfaction.

Li Qing took the Schwarzkopf hair handed over by Arnold, nodded meaningfully and said: "Yes, Cristiano Ronaldo has the same brand of hairspray, I like it." "

As he spoke, Li Qing squeezed his right hand hard, and suddenly squeezed out a large amount of gel-like hairspray, he selectively ignored Arnold's distressed little eyes, and leaned to Firmino's own mirror without blushing and heartbeat, and wiped his hair: "Robert handsome guy, please let me go, thank you." "

About five minutes later, Li Qing muttered to himself in the mirror with an intoxicated face: "You, after all, are the first coach in the Liverpool team." "

"Poof......

"Ahem......"

Managers Jurgen Klopp, Lovren and Firmino who were drinking water subconsciously squirted a mouthful of water, Mane and Wijnaldum, who were lucky, reacted and dodged, and Origi and Henderson, who were slow to react, were sprayed in the face.

Li Qing looked at his teammates puzzled, and said innocently: "Don't you think I'm handsome?"

Jurgen Klopp: "......"

Bwach: "......"

Other teammates: "......"

"Well, it looks like you're having low self-esteem. "

Li Qing washed his hands and said seriously.

Everyone: "......"

The clock was fast and with 10 minutes to go before the start of the game, FA staff knocked on the door of the visiting dressing room to remind the Liverpool players that they should head to the players' tunnel.

The Old Trafford Stadium Tunnel is larger than the Anfield Players' Tunnel and can accommodate both starters at the same time, with substitutes entering the pitch without stopping and taking their own benches.

Manchester United and Liverpool are international clubs, and many players in the team are internationals, Wijnaldum and Blind are teammates of the Dutch national team, Mignolet, Origi and Fellaini are teammates of the Belgian national team, Milner, Henderson, Lallana and Phil Jones and Chris Smalling are teammates of the England national team......

The live director connected the broadcast screen to the player tunnel and swept it one by one.

Li Qing is the youngest player in the two teams, but few Manchester United players underestimate him, because those teams that underestimated Li Qing were knocked out.

Marcus Rashford is one of the few players in the Manchester United team who underestimates Li Qing, and he is called "Wonder Boy" by the media, but he does not want to share this title with others, and he wants to use his performance to prove to the world media that he Rashford is the real wonder boy who turns decay into magic!

Li Qing, who had adjusted his mentality, noticed the hostility from Rashford, and he glanced at it and disagreed.

Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiang Kailang said: "Li Qing made his debut in this double red meeting, I believe the fans in front of the TV have been waiting for a long time, you might as well guess what kind of play Li Qing will have?"

"Most of the last few games have been at Anfield, the King Power Stadium is half the size of Old Trafford, and the huge contrast will definitely have a big impact on Li Qing, can he turn the decay into magic like the past games? "

Leshi Sports commentator Zhan Jun said.

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray is full of anticipation: "Jose Mourinho is playing in a defensive formation at home, can the attacking trident of Lee, Sadipu and Roberto break through the Manchester United defence? Martin, what do you think?"

Martin Taylor thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Manchester United's choice of defense at home is the right choice, but I don't know what the result will be, if we can beat Liverpool through a quick counterattack, it's better to say, I'm afraid that the Liverpool trident will be powerful." "

Accompanied by commentary from the on-site studio commentators, players from both sides stepped onto the pitch behind referee Oliver.

Li Qing, who walked in the middle of the team, had a different feeling, his last start was at home against Leicester City in the fifth round of the FA Cup, and the only away game was the league challenge Leicester City, and now he is starting to challenge Manchester United, and there is a faint feeling of emptiness in his heart.

However, this feeling did not last long, and the current Manchester United is not the Manchester United of the Ferguson era.

The current Manchester United is not the best Manchester United of the Mourinho era. _
