Benitez, who is despised by Jose as "I deserve to win the league championship", is also having a headache now. In La Liga, Jose is undoubtedly one of his biggest opponents. He beat Jose and was defeated by Jose. However, in the frontal confrontation, his record against Jose is not bad. However, the problem now is that he has only taken Liverpool for half a year, while Mallorca has been led by Jose for more than four years, like an arm, and his adjustment at Liverpool was not particularly smooth. The difference between La Liga and the Premier League is still quite large. Although Liverpool was the most skilled team in the Premier League before, after a group of talented players such as Redknapp McManaman left, their technical content is no longer as good as that of La Liga teams. This is also why Benitez has been unfixed in tactics for more than half a season. He also finds a balance between the team's reality and his coaching ideas.

At this time, he met Mallorca. Benitez couldn't help but scolded UEFA for not doing personnel and let us Spanish coaches kill each other - is it easy for Spanish coaches to make a living abroad...

Benitez's luck has always been bad. Although Valencia has achieved remarkable results, his relationship with the management has always been poor. After winning the league runner-up and the League Cup last season, Benitez negotiated with Liverpool, but Valencia's management never thought of keeping him--it doesn't matter to each other anyway, so if you want to leave, just leave. After coming to Liverpool, Benitez could not control the transfer. He could only propose the candidate he wanted and let the management operate. Nowadays, Premier League coaches rarely maintain the power of the manager.

This is a head coach with a low emotional intelligence, and he never seems to have been favored by the club.

So now he can only use his strength to deal with this opponent. Pellegrino and Morientes cannot play. Although it will not make him short of his military use, it will also reduce him to a little room for adjustment.

Familiarity with Mallorca is the only thing he can rely on, and Bilbao's previous game leading Mallorca by two goals also gave him some inspiration, strengthening the midfield's running and pressing, and launching a fast attack from the midfield. This is a good way to deal with Mallorca.

As for the victory of Real Madrid and Betis, there is not much to refer to. Betis used the breakthrough of the fast winger and then used purely counterattacks to fight Mallorca. He won the victory when Mallorca wasted countless opportunities. Real Madrid wasted the top-notch in that game, and fought with Mallorca from beginning to end, so that he could win in the last ten minutes by relying on the sudden explosion of the superstars. This ability is not available to Liverpool now.

After carefully watching Mallorca's recent game highlights and then, Benitez made up his mind.

For La Liga teams, their luck this year is much worse than in previous years. Valencia was eliminated in the group stage. Although Real Madrid, Barcelona and Mallorca have entered the quarterfinals of 16, their opponents are not weak. Real Madrid met Juventus, Barcelona met Chelsea, and Mallorca met Arsenal. It is obvious that after five seasons of strength, for UEFA, this strength in La Liga has been a bit too much and must be suppressed...

Jose thinks very well about this. The so-called talented people in the world have emerged, and they have led the way for hundreds of years. In the circle of European clubs, it is enough to be able to lead a three or five years of coquettishness in a league. In the 1990s, Serie A was quite coquettish. AC Milan and Juventus each entered the Champions League final three times in a row. In the middle of the process, Barcelona, ​​Marseille, Ajax, Dortmund, Real Madrid and Manchester United entered the game, which was also a melee between heroes. However, in the past five years, La Liga team won the championship four times.

This is an overwhelming advantage, so it is impossible for UEFA to not suppress it. In the next few years of history, the Premier League began to rise strongly, and it was always possible to occupy three seats in the semi-finals. At that time, UEFA began to support La Liga to attack the Premier League... After Platini came to power, he had never had a good impression of Serie A teams with backward club facilities, so he had always supported the Premier League La Liga.

And Jose is not worried that UEFA will target Mallorca. Platini will take office in a few years. After he comes to power, the policies he has implemented are fiscal balance, emphasis on youth training or investment in training facilities. Mallorca has already started to do these things and has done well. For Platini, there is a ready-made example of the new policy he has implemented. Even if Mallorca is not treated as his godson, at least it will not intentionally cause any harm to Mallorca - by then UEFA's thorns will only be those oil clubs...

So Jose is not worried that his team will be suppressed. As for whether La Liga is suppressed, he doesn't care much - no matter how hard La Liga is, it's enough that he can live a prosperous life...

February 23, Anfield Stadium.

"I have already got the starting lineup of Liverpool, which is similar to what we predicted before... Goalkeeper Dudek, this is a goalkeeper with good reaction, but sometimes he is prone to make some mistakes. Just use attack to make him make mistakes, more shots and increase sudden shots, this is a good way to deal with him. The center backs are Hypia and Carragher, and these two defenders are complementary. Hypia is excellent in confrontation and bounce. Carragher has strong mobility, right back Finnan, his assist ability is relatively balanced, left back Riser, be careful of his assist, this side may be Liverpool's key offensive route. In the midfield, Benitez sent five people, Dacott and Harman were paired with two back midfielders, Dacott, we are very familiar with Dacott, his defense

He has a strong defense ability, and he also has a long mid-range pass, while Harman is more tough, with excellent confrontation ability and good long-range shots, but these two people are not fast, Kaka, you may take on more offensive responsibilities in this game and defeat them with your speed! Luis Garcia's breakthrough is something we must pay attention to. Ram, you are responsible for dealing with him in this game, be careful of his quick breakthrough. Cowell is their left forward, but his range of activities will be larger. As for Gerald... Sissoko, you start in this game and entangle him! Liverpool's midfield organizational ability is not excellent. If you can stare at Gerald, then Liverpool's midfield organizational ability will be much lower! As for their forward forward Barroche... be careful of his running."

After talking about the tactics and key points of dealing with Liverpool, Jose also knew that there were often some accidents when dealing with teams like Liverpool. The Liverpool team also had a bit of a nerve-wracking meaning. They always had some unexpected actions. Jose hated this feeling of being uncontrollable, but this is reality.

After the players walked out of the locker room, Jose continued to deduce the tactics in the locker room, and then slowly walked out of the locker room.

Looking at the slogan "This is Anfield" at the exit of the player's passage, Jose smiled slightly, then quickly walked out of the locker room - he was not Winnie Jones, and he was not interested in doing such a thing - his Mallorca was not a crazy move to boost morale. The style of willingness to sacrifice himself is not suitable for the current Mallorca.

When he shook hands with Benitez at the exit, Jose smiled and said, "Raphael, I didn't expect to meet so soon."

"I didn't expect it." Benitez shrugged: "I thought I would meet in the final."

"That's not a good choice. I basically don't have the habit of losing the final." Jose laughed haha, then let go of his hand and walked towards his position.

Benitez did not answer - Jose's record of never losing money in the final was broken last year. The one who broke his record was Valencia who was led by Benitez for three years, although Benitez no longer coached Valencia at that time.

Meeting on a narrow road is just a battle.

*********************************************

Liverpool, wearing a red jersey, and Mallorca, wearing a white away jersey, seemed clear on the court. However, when the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, the two sides immediately collided like a torrent!

At the same time, the loud song of "You Will Never Walk Alone" began to sound over the Anfield stands. Although this team song from Liverpool was a little inconsistent when singing, Liverpool fans were able to sing this song that infused their lives so heart-stirring!

Liverpool players are always inspired by this.

It was similar to Jose’s expectations. Liverpool fought with Mallorca from the beginning. As a Premier League team, their running ability is absolutely not bad, and they also gained the upper hand in the confrontation of physical strength - if Jose did not send Sissoko to start...

Senna is a very top defensive midfielder, but his physical fitness and running are worse than Sissoko. When facing opponents who pay more attention to technology in La Liga, Senna is more useful, while when facing Premier League teams, Sissoko's running and strength can make Mallorca's midfielder tougher.

Gerald soon found himself entangled by a big black man. This big black man's physical fitness is no worse than Gerald, his strength is even better than Gerald, and his running is no less than Gerald. From the beginning of the game, he followed Gerald tightly, and his number of times he took the ball seemed to have decreased a lot.

Gerald's range of activities is very large, but Sissoko doesn't stand at the defensive position at all. He just runs with Gerald. Gerald has excellent basic skills, but he does not have the ability to pass a good ball immediately after getting the ball - this is also one of the common problems of English players. It is indeed rare for them to have good skills.

Sissoko runs with Gerald like this, Mallorca's midfield defense will naturally weaken a lot. This is the time for Alonso to play his role. He starts to organize more backwards. One is to avoid the pressing of two opponent's back midfielders, and the other is to help defend the front of the penalty area - if Liverpool intercepts the ball and counterattacks, he is the first line of defense to intercept.

So in this case, Mallorca's offense began to focus on his right side - Kaka, Iniesta and Macon. They were the key figures in the attack. Kaka kept running to attract the attention of the opponent's midfielder and found opportunities to shoot from a long shot. Iniesta ran forward and backward and passed in series, Macon frequently pushed forward and assisted, using offense to suppress the opponent's Cowell and Riser. On the other side, they mainly used defense to deal with the opponent's Louis Garcia and Gerald...

This is the basic idea of ​​Jose's tactics in this game, and the final effect depends on the progress of the game.

Now, everything is still unknown.
