Benitez's life is not easy. His life at Liverpool is like Wang Xiaoer celebrating the New Year, and every year is getting worse.

From the prestige he was in the Premier League when he first entered the Premier League to the Chelsea where he defeated Ye Qiu and won the UEFA Champions League championship, that year he reached the peak of his life and the peak of Liverpool in recent years

But after that, he began to go downhill, which was due to his own reasons, as well as various factors such as the team.

He has always felt that he was not really so familiar with and understand the Premier League, because many of the things that happened here and many of the contradictions that arise here seemed difficult to understand in his opinion, and it was always full of games between capital and football.

Professional football is not just that, he understands this, but the Premier League is even more so.

In the past few years, he has been improving Liverpool almost every season. He knows clearly what he wants. He has a very, very clear context in his mind. But the problem is that this context sometimes seems to be very close to him, and often it is possible to achieve it just by introducing one player. But after he got this player, he realized that it was so far away from him and so out of reach.

The first half of last season was when he felt that he had been the closest to the championship. His team led the Premier League for a long time. He felt that everyone in the team was performing better and better. All the players seemed to understand his intention overnight. But later, when the Christmas and winter breaks were in the schedule, Liverpool ushered in the embarrassment of Lian Piao, and he found out that he was wrong.

Ye Qiu once commented on him during a private exchange, believing that he was a tactical genius who even Ye Qiu felt guilty about himself, but he was a complete otaku in instilling his own tactical ideas into players and communicating with players.

Sometimes when I think about it, Benitez really envies Ye Qiu. At least everything seems to be going well in his way, but Benitez himself knows clearly that Ye Qiu's success is not because of his good luck, but because he is always preparing for the future.

There are many ways to solve problems in this world. When the problem occurs, you will slowly find a way to solve it. This is the worst type; before the problem occurs, you should prepare for solving it first, which is a more moderate type; there is another type that is, you can kill it in the quilt in advance without waiting for the problem to appear. This is the most ideal type.

When Ye Qiu mentioned in an interview before the game that the most important thing for Tottenham Hotspur this season is to build a good team's defensive system, Benitez knew very clearly that Tottenham Hotspur will be stronger this season than before. The reason is very simple, because Ye Qiu finally decided to adjust the old problem of focusing on offense and light on defense.

Offense and defense balance is a real strong team

Some people may think, damn, it's simple, just adjust the defense. At worst, you can introduce excellent defenders and adjust the tacit understanding. Wouldn't it be done? With the current strength and financial resources of Tottenham Hotspur, it's no problem to introduce anyone.

This is a mediocre saying. A truly top-notch coach would not do such things. Just like Ferguson, he would not introduce defenders casually when he was killed. The reason is very simple. On the surface, the midfield is the stage for superstars, but the midfield is the most expensive place.

Adjustments are divided into soft and hard. The former is gentle, the latter is more aggressive, the former is calm, and the latter is more likely to cause trouble. Therefore, as long as a fan knows, soft adjustments must be taken, that is, based on the existing player framework, adjust the team's defense without undergoing large-scale changes to the team's overall technical and tactical framework.

The hard adjustment is simple and rough. You can spend money, throw people to sign up, and then build a strong defensive system. However, once the defense and the midfield are incompatible, the team will immediately collapse and polarize, and then they will have to completely overturn and rebuild, just like Ferguson this season.

According to Tottenham Hotspur’s current situation, it is impossible to complete it without spending 100 million yuan in transfer funds. So from Ye Qiu’s perspective, he will save this 100 million yuan and spend it not at all.

Soft adjustment is the test of Ye Qiu and his coaching staff's level, because soft adjustments require more aspects to be considered.

To give the simplest example, Tottenham Hotspur has always lacked strong centers since Van Nie left the team two years ago, so it is extremely dependent on pulling and interspers in positional battles. This is true, but this is a kind of trick. If you just play with this trick, you will be pulled and beaten by your opponent at first, but later, everyone is familiar with it and get used to it. How can you continue?

Gareth Bale's emergence last season must have given Ye Qiu a great excitement, because the Welsh Wings are completely different from Ribery and Messi. He has almost no tricks and relies entirely on hard power to attack the opponent's defense line. As a result, everyone saw that Tottenham Hotspur's attack power surged.

With the strong rise of Tottenham Hotspur, more and more teams will adopt cautious defensive tactics when fighting against North London teams, especially to arrange their troops based on their weaknesses and shortcomings. Even capable teams will try every means to spend time with Tottenham Hotspur, because if you want to play positional battles, if you want to intersperse and pull, you have to oppress my 30-meter area.

That is the so-called high-intensity compression and pressing in the midfield.

But don't think that as long as the overall movement is handled well, the physical energy consumption will be small. It's wrong. Once the opponent intentionally wants to waste it with you, it will be difficult for Tottenham to maintain the entire game. You can even start the game. In the middle of the season, you will still be in a physical energy crisis. At that time, you will still be beaten by the opponent's repeated counterattacks.

Maybe someone said again, can I relax my oppression?

Yes, if you relax and oppress, Messi, Ribery and others will be forced to retreat and stay away from the threatening area. This will lead to a sharp reduction in lethality of Ribery and Messi, and it is not good for Tottenham Hotspur's frontcourt interlude and pass-and-received cooperation. And the retracement means that your midfielder's frontcourt players have a larger running range.

This seems like a very unsolvable chain of condoms, right?

But in Benitez's view, at least in this game against Liverpool, Benitez could see that Ye Qiu had found a solution, which was to use a strong center to attack the opponent's defense line head-on and act as a weapon for the team to attack the city and capture the village.

It's like in this game, Falcao's defense line attacking Liverpool, Messi, Ribery, David Silva and Fabregas are completely unnecessary to push too much, because even if they don't push as they did in the past, Liverpool's defense line still dares not push up because there is a strong center.

As long as Ribery and Messi can retreat appropriately, Tottenham Hotspur's entire midfield can also retreat appropriately, and the backcourt can naturally move backwards. In this way, an effective overall chain defense can be organized to produce a new round of overall defensive effect.

So, what are the benefits of the new defensive system?

It's very simple, because Tottenham's defense line is not as high as it can be. The previous routine of placing a high-efficiency fulcrum center in the frontcourt and waiting for the backcourt to intercept the ball and make a quick long pass and counterattack will be difficult to work again. Benitez feels that Ye Qiu was influenced by Ferguson.

Ferguson introduced Benzema, Tevez and Rooney this season to form a new trident. To put it bluntly, he must take this path, and he will continue to follow the previous pass-through and cut routes of Manchester United, rather than Barcelona's pass-through and control routes, and it will not be the route that Ye Qiu advocates for combining pass-through and cut-through and control.

Because this path is most suitable for Manchester United, Ferguson has laid an extremely solid foundation in the past few years. Now all he needs is appropriate personnel changes and helps players integrate into the team. So overall, the price paid is the least, but the gains that may be obtained are the richest.

If we want to talk about the team that has gained the most in the transfer market this year, it must be Manchester United

As for Liverpool, Benitez can only deal with the moves now, because after selling Xavi Alonso, looking at the entire European football world, who dares to say that he can find a midfielder who can directly fill Xavi Alonso's gap?

Didn't see Ye Qiu selling forwards and defenders, but he just won't sell Fabregas and David Silva?

The reason is simple, the midfield is the key

In this game, Liverpool's defeat was in the midfield

Benitez is also powerless to do anything about this, and the midfield is disordered, especially before the first half is finished, Tottenham Hotspur scored four goals for you as soon as it came out, completely stunned Liverpool. Benitez is also powerless to do anything about this.

In the second half, although he made further adjustments and strengthened the team's midfield defense and protection, it was still useless. Tottenham Hotspur was obviously very confident and more confident. In the end, Ribery scored two more goals.

No one expected that in the first round of the new season, the Reds Liverpool would be humiliated by Tottenham Hotspurs with such a big score at the White Hart Lane Stadium. Benitez even lowered his head and sat in the coach's seat throughout the game, thinking about some questions expressionlessly, because he could predict what would be greeted after the end of this game.

Perhaps, he should thank Torres because Espanyol scored a goal for Liverpool at 2005, which somewhat saved Liverpool's face, but overall, it was a big defeat and a disaster.

It was also at this moment that Benitez truly realized that Ye Qiu was right. Liverpool is no longer the victim of Tottenham Hotspur. Just relying on his team, Liverpool, who has no midfielder, don't expect to adjust Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur beat Liverpool at home.

Manchester United beat Birmingham at home 0.

Arsenal made a difficult comeback to Everton away.

Chelsea's embarrassing reversal of Hul City at home.

With the start of the first round of the Premier League, fans around the world were gathered in England.

The team with the most eye-catching performance in the first round was Tottenham Hotspur, which beat Liverpool in a strong dialogue. Almost all media in the world called this game an epic victory, especially in the first round of the league, which made everyone praise it.

Among all the reports of Tottenham Hotspur's big victory over Liverpool, a considerable amount of space is reported on Romedal Falcao, a young Colombian center who was a hit, but he was not the best player in this game.

After the first round of the Premier League, the best player in the first round of the Premier League was given to Messi because the Argentine star not only contributed three assists and scored a hat-trick for assists, but also scored a goal by himself. He led four of them alone and performed very eye-catching.

Although the Argentine superstar who almost transferred to Manchester City this summer only scored one goal in the first round of the new season, the tactical value he showed on the field was obviously heavier than last season. He performed very well not only on the offensive end, but also in the midfield.

To what Martin Samuel said in the column, "He was at Tottenham Hotspur's experience that Maradona was able to come out in Naples."

The number of goals scored was less, but Messi attracted greater attention and response. Ye Qiu also repeatedly stated in an interview with the media after the game that the team will help Messi determine his development path again, because the goal does not represent the whole of a player.

"The reason why all the great players are remembered and impressed is because of his outstanding performance on the football field, not just his goals, that's what I said to Messi."

As for Falcao, who had performed well after joining the new team, several players in Tottenham Hotspur team also gave high evaluation and praise, especially Messi, who was regarded by many people as the one who should exclude Falcao. He even said, "Falcao is an outstanding player. His joining Tottenham Hotspur has brought us strength improvements. I think this is very good. With him, we can score more easily."

In addition, there are two more eye-catching teams in the first round of the league, namely Manchester City and West Ham United.

Both teams have big signings, Manchester City and West Ham United both beat their opponents by 0, but the performance of both teams is not very eye-catching, especially Manchester City, where Mark Hughes has obviously become Manchester City's biggest obstacle.

Ranieli is very familiar with the Premier League, so his West Ham United is not so good, but the game process is very stable, and he scored three-pointers with a stable performance, which is worthy of recognition and also a good start for the new season.

Due to the influence of the 10-year South African World Cup, the Premier League schedule for the new season must be appropriately compressed. Therefore, after the first round of the league, the second round will be launched in the middle of the week, with Tottenham Hotspur challenging Hul City away.

This team, which had just forced Chelsea to be embarrassed at Stamford Bridge Stadium, returned to his home court to welcome Tottenham Hotspur. Phil Brown swore to defeat the opponent at home before the game.

But no one expected that Tottenham Hotspur once again knocked Hul City down again with a neat l.

But this is not the most terrifying thing. What really shocked everyone was that Romedal Falcao once again scored a hat-trick, scoring a hat-trick in two consecutive league rounds, leading the Premier League scorer list with six goals.

All the fans, journalists and professionals around the world were shocked. If they were given a scalpel, what they wanted to do most now would be to cut Romedar Falcao's head and explore it carefully. What exactly is the center's head in?

It is definitely a striking feat to play a hat trick for two consecutive rounds, especially in a Premier League level, which is simply incredible, but he just entered, and it is not the kind that is difficult to enter, but he is very comfortable to enter.

In the last game, he scored a hat-trick in the first half. This time it took a little longer. In the 55th minute of the second half, he scored his third goal in the game.

With six goals in two rounds, Falcao has almost always soared in a surprising way in the new season, especially after playing Hul City, he was elected as the best player in the game and became the best player in the Premier League in this round, almost overnight becoming the object of praise and praise from fans around the world.

Messi and Fabregas scored the other two goals for Tottenham Hotspur.

But many media believe that Falcao's goal-scoring momentum is only temporary, and the reason is very simple. Messi, Ribery, Fabregas and David Silva all scored goals and assists, and they all had interactions with each other. This is also part of the Tottenham Hotspur team collaboration in the past, but it is believed that Falcao scored six goals in the first two rounds of this season, but he did not have an assist.

Of course, during the game, he also tried many times to make goals for Messi, Ribery or other teammates, but the effect was obviously average. Not to mention that he was competing with Van Persis before, even with Cavani, he was not as good as this point.

So many experts believe that although Falcao's goal momentum is so strong, no one can do anything to him now, but once he can't score, all criticism and accusations will sweep overwhelm. At that time, it will be the real test for him and Tottenham Hotspur.

Ye Qiu, who topped the Premier League standings with two consecutive victories, didn't care about this kind of remarks at all. He felt that everyone did not need to worry about this unknown thing, and everyone should pay more attention to enjoying the current football.

As for the gutter of this round of away game, and the Manchester United lost to the newly promoted Burnley Manchester United in a 0l, Ye Qiu did not forget to put in the wrong hands on Ferguson. "I hope that whenever I look back in the future, I won't see the name of Manchester United in the standings."

"Because they fell too far"

Who made Tottenham Hotspur not perform well? Ferguson is gloating a lot of troubles?

But as competitors, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool all won one after another, Ranieri's West Ham United also won, and Mark Hughes's Manchester City lost 0 to Everton at home, which is not surprising at all.

In the third round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur welcomes West Ham United
