"You don't need to prove to me that you can win this game. I just need you to prove it to me. All of you have the mentality of a winner!" Wen Sheng finally said to his players.

This means it doesn't matter whether you win or not, but it seems that it's not. It's specious and ambiguous. The players are seriously thinking about the meaning of Wensheng.

Wensheng didn't say anything more, and asked everyone to prepare and make a brilliant debut.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to win this game, but on the contrary, he really wants to win this game, but the biggest problem with Manchester City’s team is mentality.

From summer training to now, Wen Sheng cannot guarantee that Manchester City's tactics are well-trained. Liverpool's whetstone is very difficult. What he is most worried about is that Manchester City players are proud and complacent because of the big victory in the last game.

This kind of proud and complacent attitude is really not worthy of advocating against Liverpool in this situation.

What Wensheng meant is that if the players could treat this game with a more calm mind, even if Manchester City still had shortcomings in tactical integration, it would at least not collapse, and there was a high possibility of winning. After all, the hard power was there, which was indeed better than Liverpool.

In order to deal with Liverpool, Wen Sheng deliberately used a 4231 formation.

Johart is still in charge of the goalkeeper position, Sabalatta, Van Dik, Kompani and Kolarov are lined up in line on the defense line, with double midfielders Yaya Toure and Melo continuing to partner, De Bruyne, Silva and Nasri serving as attacking midfielders, and Dzeko is still a single striker.

There was no personnel adjustment compared to the previous game, but in the tactical arrangement, the victory in the center allowed De Bruyne to retreat more, and also repeatedly told Wan to tell Yaya Toure not to overweight. Yaya Toure's own extraordinary skills are not particularly outstanding, and the speed is not fast.

In terms of defense alone, it is a fact that Kante's coverage area is larger than him. Not to mention Kante, even Dembele's mobile ability is stronger than Yaya Toure. His advantage lies in the connection.

Wensheng made De Bruyne retreat frequently to divide his ball rights and prevent him from storing it.

Yaya Toure and Melo have priority to ensure defense and protect the defense line. Liverpool's lack of control in the midfield is an obvious fact. It is definitely more likely to be used in long passes today.

Manchester City's tactic at the beginning of today is health preservation. First, touch Liverpool's routines and states before talking about other things.

......

"The Manchester City coach really looks very young!" Liverpool's boss Linda said to her husband Henry.

Since the couple acquired Liverpool, they will occasionally come to the UK to watch football. No one knows whether Henry is interested in football or not. However, in such a battle, their visit to the scene is an inspiration for the team and the players.

Henry himself is engaged in the sports industry. He is far away from the United States but also knows the essence of Liverpool. His plan to invite Wensheng was strongly supported by Liverpool's board of directors.

Compared to the more dull British, Henry, the American boss, is still quite open-minded in his thinking.

Unfortunately, Manchester City took a step earlier and took the lead, and Liverpool missed Wensheng.

Hearing his wife's words, Henry smiled slightly, "He is less than thirty years old, how can he not be young?" Although he didn't know much about Wen Sheng and Henry, he still sincerely praised him, "This guy is a genius!"

"Do you think we will win?" Linda asked her husband with a smile. She was not that emotional about football, but at least Liverpool is her own team. How could she say that the answer she expected in her heart would be "Yes!"

Henry smiled and said, "How could I know! But Anfield is not that easy to break!"

Before the game, Henry also looked at his past record. Since Mancini took office, Liverpool has never been afraid of Manchester City at Anfield. Last season in the league, Liverpool did not lose his home court in such a bad situation. He even eliminated the strong Manchester City in the League Cup. Anfield is the confidence of Liverpool.

While the boss and his wife were discussing the game, the players from both sides were already standing on the court.

Rogers and Wensheng also greeted the passage.

Others may think that Rodgers may not be able to bear the burden of Liverpool, but Wensheng would not think so. This guy's ability is beyond words. Liverpool's lineup has never been one of the best in the Premier League during his time of his rule. If he can't win the championship, he can't really let Rodgers take the blame.

Of course, Rogers' level of scoring lottery tickets needs to be improved, and he is not as good as Wen Sheng in training young players.

This is not the first time the two met, and the relationship between the two sides is quite good. When Wensheng took office as Manchester City coach, Rodgers sent a congratulation text message to Wensheng. When Rodgers took office as Liverpool's head coach, Wensheng did not forget to send him a congratulation text message.

After agreeing to have a drink at Anfield after the game, both sides returned to the coaching seat.

Liverpool has a 433 formation. After the 442 defeat in the last game, Rodgers reacted very quickly, and he immediately scored 433 in this game.

Goalkeeper: Reina

Defenders: Kelly, Coates, Scotter, Johnson

Midfielder: Gerald, Joe Allen, Lucas

Forwards: Sterling, Borini, Suarez

Liverpool has also been troubled by some injuries. Last season, the defender Enrique who transferred from Newcastle to Liverpool, performed poorly, and Daglish often replaced him with Kelly. This season, the Spaniard's condition has not improved. Sitting on the bench safely, Rodgers still used Kelly, but today Kelly guards the right side and Johnson guards the left side.

Liverpool's arrangement is not clear on paper. Only when you get to the court can you see Rodgers' real arrangement, but there shouldn't be much change on the sidelines and on paper.

Johnson played on the left, and Wensheng estimated that Rodgers had high hopes for young player Sterling. Stry was very fast and had strong dribbling ability. Johnson was also a full-back with a fast speed and strong forward consciousness. Sterling could get more support from Johnson in the game. If it were Kelly, it might not be so good.

Of course, all of this is a tactical concept, and the actual effect still needs to be verified by the competition.

The two sides are somewhat similar in the midfield arrangement. Wensheng sets up a double midfielder, Liverpool should be a single midfielder Lucas, Gerald serves as a central midfielder, Joe Allen appears as a front midfielder, and the three of them are in a triangle position. Gerald's task should be both offensive and defensive. Unlike Yaya Toure, who is limited to defense by Wensheng, you cannot go too far.

Liverpool's double centre-back on the defense line is really a big test for Dzeko. According to Wensheng's idea, if he really wants to play 4231, judging from the arrangement of the opponent's personnel in this game, Wensheng thinks Aguero is more suitable for playing center position than Dzeko.
