Chapter 1002 Dinner

Notts County really deserves its title of champion harvester, especially in this kind of event where the champion can be determined in one or two games, and it has almost never missed.

Halfway through this season, Notts County has won three championships, the Community Shield Cup, the European Super Cup and today's Club World Cup. Perhaps many people may say that these championships do not have much gold content, but in fact, look at these few The qualifications for this event are either the Premier League champions or the Champions League Champions League, or even the FA Cup champions. The threshold for admission is very high.

Of course, Notts County has already lost in the League Cup this season. If Notts County insisted on training young players, so that they sent young players in the matchup with the Premier League opponents, they would not have been eliminated.

But this also made people in the football circle breathe a sigh of relief. After all, Notts County has shown an unparalleled state since the beginning of the season. Even in the season when it won the seven championships, Notts County was not so strong. Could it be that Notts County County to prove their dominance with yet another seven crowns?

Fortunately, now that the League Cup is out, at least the seven champions have no chance, otherwise they still tremble under the power of Notts County? With a bonus of 5 million US dollars and a championship trophy, Notts County returned from Asia with glory. However, Notts County, which was delayed for a week because of the Club World Cup, has played two games less than other teams, but still maintain a sufficient lead.

After entering the Christmas schedule, the schedule has become relatively tight. Notts County needs to play two more make-up games than other clubs in a fixed period. The team has disadvantages.

In the first league game after Christmas, Notts County defeated another magpie Newcastle at home, which officially broke the winning streak created by Inter Milan last season. At the same time, 19 league rounds means that the Premier League schedule is just right More than half, Notts County maintained a complete victory in the first half of the league.

In the last game of 2007, Notts County defeated Aston Villa at home, and the 2007 game ended perfectly. At the same time, Notts County also took a step closer, extending the league winning streak to 20 games.

However, the next round of league competition is definitely a test for Notts County. This game is also considered to be the end of Notts County's league winning streak, because the opponent is the powerful Liverpool.

Compared with the previous life, Benitez's Liverpool lost the Champions League that should have belonged to them, but perhaps because of this, Liverpool's competitiveness in the league is even better, although it is not yet possible to break Notts County and Chelsea's monopoly, but compared to old rivals such as Manchester United and Arsenal, it is more stable and stronger.

Due to the arrival of Torres this season, Liverpool's weakest link in the past has also had the most obvious improvement. The Spanish golden boy has integrated into Benitez's tactics very quickly.

This is also an important reason why Liverpool have been able to lead Chelsea so far and not fall behind.

With reference to Notts County's schedule, if Liverpool still cannot attack Notts County at home in this game, then Notts County is likely to extend the winning streak to 29 rounds, because Notts County will not play again until the 30th round. Meet the real test.

On the night when he came to Liverpool, as the host, Torres invited the Spanish players in the Notts County team to dinner. They are all teammates of the national team and the relationship is very familiar.

Villa, Alonso, Capdevila, Ramos and Azpilicueta, these are the only five Spanish players left in the Notts County first team. The first four are the absolute main players of Spain. AZP is a marginal international.

The five players plus Torres are not Real Madrid and Barcelona players, and they don't have so much confrontational emotion, so the relationship is obviously better.

How about it, do you regret rejecting Notts County's invitation? We won the Champions League last season, but now Liverpool seems to have encountered difficulties on both fronts? Villa said to Torres jokingly.

It is true that Notts County invited Torres to join last season, but at that time Torres and Atletico Madrid were you and me, even though Notts County had already offered a sky-high transfer fee, they still refused very simply.

However, the world is tricky. After one season, the situation changed suddenly, Torres and Atletico Madrid broke up, but at this time there were not many targets to choose from. In the end, Torres chose the most sincere Liverpool.

Perhaps Torres now has more tactical freedom in Liverpool and plays more smoothly, but an unavoidable problem is that it is difficult for Liverpool's results to be in close contact with the champions!

This season Notts County is the dominant team in the league. Although Liverpool is ahead of the Champions League, it is clear that the championship is hopeless.

Villa's words really seemed to hit a sore spot in Torres' heart. Sometimes he also thought that if he chose to join Notts County last season, he might have already been honored by now.

Very good, Liverpool is very strong, you should be careful! Torres' face changed slightly, and then he smiled stubbornly.

He certainly couldn't admit that he might have made a wrong choice.

Alonso and others nodded with a clear smile. Liverpool is very strong, but as an important competitor in the Premier League, they know exactly how strong Liverpool is. Torres may find it difficult to conquer any important competition in Liverpool. , no matter the Premier League or the Champions League.

As long as you're happy, that's fine, but let me remind you, don't get hurt, the summer is the European Championship, and we are still waiting to make history! Alonso couldn't help but reminded.

Torres nodded. As the main striker of the national team, he doesn't want to lose the chance of this European Cup because of injury.

Can we not mention the national team? I'm still worried about whether I can enter the national team! AZP said with a troubled face. As a marginal international player, he really didn't know whether Aragones would take him to the European Cup.

With me and Capdevila here, you basically have no chance to become the main force, but because you can play both positions at the left back, I think it should be no problem to enter the squad! Well, you just Sit on the bench honestly and be a substitute for us! Ramos said with a dirty face, and Capdevila beside him also had an expression of approval.

AZP is very self-aware. Ramos and Capdevila have secured the main positions of the left and right full-backs. It can satisfy him.
