Chapter 846
"Come on, Nunez, everyone knows that you are from Benfica. Tell us what happened to you in Benfica and your former teammates. We really need to hear about Benfica's training and game tactics!"
Whenever the opponent is a team that any of the current players has played for, Klopp will ask the player to talk to everyone about that team.
Lin Chen always feels that time goes by quickly when there are games. Today is March 3rd. In the past twenty days, Liverpool won the 23th and th rounds of the Premier League and continued to catch up with Manchester City.
But Manchester City has begun to show some signs of lack of momentum.
This gives Klopp more confidence that the team can win the Premier League title, but Liverpool first needs to complete its tasks in the Champions League.
This season's Champions League quarter-finals have begun. After defeating Inter Milan, Liverpool became one of the top eight teams in this season's Champions League.
In the Champions League quarter-finals, Liverpool's opponent is Benfica.
Benfica has performed very well in the Champions League this season because there are many outstanding players in the lineup, and these players will definitely make Benfica earn a lot of transfer fees.
Nunez looked at Benfica's team lineup and realized that Liverpool had made a lot of money when he was sold to them by Benfica.
But now Benfica still has some players in its squad who can continue to make a fortune!
"I really want to say that they are very good at attacking! Gonzalo Ramos, the Portuguese player you should have played against in the European Cup before! He can play as a front midfielder or a center forward!"
Lin Chen shook his head. He had no impression. He had never seen Gonzalo Ramos play in previous European Cups. Maybe he had, but he probably forgot.
"I was most impressed by their two wingers. The one on the left is called Everton, which is similar to the name of our opponent in the Premier League. He is from Brazil."
“Everton is very thin, but he runs really fast.”
"The one on the right is called Rafa Silva. His crosses are really accurate. When I was playing in the Portuguese Super League for Benfica, I really liked Rafa Silva's crosses. They helped me score a lot of goals!"
After Nunez finished commenting on Rafa Silva, Klopp suddenly thought of an interesting question!
"Choose one among Nunez, Rafa Silva and the captain, whose cross is more accurate?"
The players around him immediately looked at Nunez. Nunez did not hesitate at all. This question was too easy for him to answer.
"Of course it's the captain. Who can cross the ball more accurately than the captain?"
"Who can pass the ball more accurately than the captain?"
"Who is more capable than the captain?"
"This is my captain, coach. I don't know why you're asking me this, but this is my answer."
The players around him started laughing, but no one thought Nunez was flattering them because what Nunez said was the truth!
Lin Chen and Klopp both noticed what Nunez said, that Benfica is very good at attacking and also likes to attack!
"Do you think they will play offensively when they play against us in the Champions League quarter-finals?"
Lin Chen asked Nunes, and Nunes nodded affirmatively!
"Because it's my old club, I've followed their previous games. They've been attacking in the round of 1 and the group stage. They will definitely attack and won't change their tactics just because we're Liverpool!"
Nunez remembers what Benfica's head coach often said in the locker room.
He always tells his players to take the initiative to attack, instead of telling them to remember to take the initiative to defend. This kind of tactical thinking and tactical approach is difficult to change!
