Every Merseyside derby is highly anticipated, and this one even more so, because of a very important backdrop—in the previous league round, Liverpool's top scorer Chen Hero's fatal weakness in his left foot was exposed. Manchester United used this point to restrain Chen Hero, rendering him useless throughout the entire match.

But is this tactic something that only a very few teams can successfully use, or has it become a secret weapon that anyone can use to defeat Chen Hero and Liverpool?

This Merseyside derby is a great opportunity to verify this tactic.

If Everton can use this tactic to restrain Chen Hero's performance, then it basically means that Manchester United's tactic is universal. Because Everton definitely cannot be considered a strong team, they are only a mid-tier team, very representative—since a mid-tier team can succeed, wouldn't a team higher than mid-tier also be able to do it?

So everyone focused their attention on this game, wanting to see if Chen Hero would really be restricted.

It's like waiting for the announcement of a major scientific research result, everyone is full of their own expectations for this game.

Those who support Chen Hero and Liverpool hope that Everton will fail, but they are in the minority. The vast majority of people hope that Everton will succeed—who told Liverpool to rise so quickly this season, making many people feel terrified? And... who told Chen Hero to be so arrogant?

A tall tree attracts the wind, Liverpool and Chen Hero are too enviable, so naturally more people are happy to see them unlucky.

This idea is also reflected in the media.

The local media that are pro-Liverpool naturally hope that Everton will lose, while other media prefer Liverpool to lose. They are weak and unsupported, and public opinion is gradually being dominated by voices that are bearish on Chen Hero and the Liverpool team.

There are also many people who hypocritically say that they actually like Liverpool very much. After all, in England, Liverpool's reputation is better than Manchester United's. Due to various tragedies, they are also more sympathetic. But it is all because of Chen Hero that they have changed their views on Liverpool. They believe that Liverpool, who has捧成 Chen Hero into a top star, is no longer that proud English powerhouse, but has been reduced to a mad dog-like team that bites anyone it sees.

Such Liverpool is simply玷辱ing the glorious tradition of the Red Army, so it is good for them to fail and be unlucky, at least it can wake them up from the迷蒙 of relying on Chen Hero.

"Only by letting Liverpool realize that they cannot always rely on Chen Hero, and Chen Hero is not their savior, not omnipotent, can this traditional powerhouse possibly restore its former glory!"

This expert was impassioned, and even just reading his article could make one feel like they had been sprayed in the face with saliva. It seemed like he was really worried about Liverpool, worried that Liverpool had堕落ed.

Of course, when Liverpool has been without a title for many years, you will never see these worried "Liverpool fan experts" come out and say a word.

Not only are the media and fans paying attention to the outcome of this game, but the Liverpool players are also concerned. They are also nervous and uneasy, wondering if Chen Hero can overcome this hurdle.

Some people even think that from this tactical arrangement, even if Liverpool wins the game in the end, it is only Liverpool's victory, not Chen Hero's.

As long as Chen Hero doesn't score, he is the loser.

The media can declare that although Everton did not defeat Liverpool, at least they proved to the world that the method to defeat Chen Hero is still effective.

So they are all quite worried about Chen Hero. If Chen Hero doesn't score, one can imagine how much pressure he will face...

Especially since Chen Hero is now behaving so calmly... behaving calmly is not a problem, but being too calm is a problem.

Chen Hero is a very lively person, and it is rare to see him completely silent. Whether in the locker room or on the training ground, he always talks a lot, making everyone laugh constantly.

So if he is too calm, then there is definitely a problem.

Everyone is worried that this is a sign that the pressure will crush Chen Hero.

Suarez wanted to comfort Chen Hero and relieve some of his pressure, but Chen Hero refused his kindness: "It's okay, I'm meditating!"

"Meditating? What are you meditating on?" Suarez asked strangely.

"Thinking about the meaning of life, who I am, where I come from, where I am going, what is the mission I肩负 when I came into this world..." Chen Hero looked serious and earnest, as if doing so would make a sun appear behind his head.

Suarez rolled his eyes, flicked a middle finger at him, and left his room.

As soon as he went out, he saw other teammates waiting anxiously in the corridor. Seeing him come out, they surrounded him.

"How is Hero?"

"Yeah, what's his situation now?"

"How did you comfort him, Luis?"

……

Suarez raised his arms and signaled everyone to be quiet.

Then he said, "He doesn't have any pressure at all!"

Yes, in fact, Chen Hero is not as stressed as he gives people the impression... Being able to say such mindless words, Suarez felt that Chen Hero was perfectly normal.

After he repeated the conversation with Chen Hero, many teammates had the same reaction as him and waved their hands: "Tch, everyone go wash up and go to bed, get some rest, there's still a game tomorrow!"

Then they dispersed, and soon the corridor was empty.

※※※

Chen Hero didn't actually lie to Suarez, or rather, he didn't completely deceive Suarez. He was indeed meditating.

But what he was meditating on was definitely not the meaning of life.

What he was thinking about was how he could score in the game against Everton...

Basten wanted him to play football with his brain, so now he had to use his brain to think.

He is not top-notch in terms of technique, and his left foot technique is almost渣渣. If the opponent really forces himself to use his left foot to control the ball, what should he do?

Chen Hero racked his brains for a long time, but couldn't come to a conclusion.

And what counts as playing football with your brain? Racking your brains to come up with many tactical strategies? Like Zhuge Liang? But he is not that type, he should be like the fierce Zhang Fei...

Chen Hero thought and thought like this, but couldn't figure out why until the game started.

When he was on the field, his calm, expressionless appearance fell into the eyes of the commentators and others, and became ironclad proof that "Chen Hero is worried and under great pressure."

Whether they supported him or hated him, seeing Chen Hero like this, they all认定了 that Chen Hero was out of options. Those who hated him began to cheer impatiently, while those who liked him哀鸿遍野.

Only the Liverpool players knew that although they didn't know what Chen Hero was going crazy about, Chen Hero was very normal!

※※※

After the game started, Everton was indeed inspired by Manchester United. Moyes asked the players to strictly defend Chen Hero's right foot when defending him, forcing him to use his left foot to control the ball.

Completely replicating Manchester United's tactics.

In the first fifteen minutes of the game, Chen Hero did continue his performance in the game against Manchester United.

This further strengthened the confidence of those who were bearish on Chen Hero.

In the media box, some reporters who didn't like Chen Hero simply announced: "This method is effective! The days of Hero being invincible are gone forever!"

Of course, the reporters who did this were鄙视ed by other reporters who supported Chen Hero.

※※※

Chen Hero gave up, not giving up on pursuing goals, but giving up on meditation. He felt that the stories of enlightenment in history might be true, and he really needed an enlightenment. Just冥思苦想ing here has no effect at all, it is better to first focus on this game and then talk about it. Let's first score a goal, no matter what method we use.

He must obtain that talent in this game, as for upgrading, he can talk about it later.

So in fact, Chen Hero's poor performance in the first fifteen minutes was not because Everton's tactics困住ed him, but because he himself was冥思苦想ing and didn't completely focus his mind on the game...

Now that he has come back to his senses, he is single-mindedly thinking about how to score.

In fact, Everton's tactics are indeed effective.

Chen Hero now feels unspeakably awkward. Although he has had a week to adjust himself, the time is still too short. He is still not used to kicking the ball with his left foot.

I have to say that many people's concerns are correct, if Chen Hero has no other way, then he is really完蛋ed.

But fortunately, the core of the tactics in this game is not Chen Hero. He is more about牽扯ing and running for his teammates, creating gaps, and attracting the enemy's defensive attention.

In fact, the main scorer in this game is Suarez.

And Liverpool's overall strength is indeed better than Everton's.

Moyes' tactics against Chen Hero now seem like a punch that was swung with all his might, but missed!

Suarez is exceptionally active, and Liverpool also has the advantage on the field.

The only disappointed person may be Chen Hero.

The game has been going on for twenty minutes, and the score is still 0:0, with Liverpool having the advantage. Liverpool just finished a very threatening attack. Sanchez crossed the ball, and Suarez jumped up to争顶 in the middle, but was a little short, he didn't顶到 the ball.

The ball flew over his head.

This attack failed to form a goal, but it made Chen Hero's eyes light up!

For Suarez, this attack can at most be considered a threatening attack, but for himself, such an opportunity is a goal!

Chen Hero slapped his forehead.

How could I forget this!

I'm not just good at footwork!

Damn it, do you really think that if you limit my right foot, I can only夹起尾巴灰溜溜地 escape?
