聯賽冠軍之路

  步入三月,如果你說英超冠軍還有懸念,如果不算天真,起碼也是極度樂觀。

  落後十分,要在餘下的約十輪比賽中趕過曼魚,可說是天方夜譚。所以,雖然我不排除奇蹟的可能,但我已經為利浦奪標的相關投資撇賬,正如當年英國某賭博公司提早向阿記投資者派彩一樣。我亦希望,今屆的結果同樣出人意表。

  利物浦再一次衝擊聯賽錦標失敗,其實也不算令人意外。我一直擔心,球隊不能承受來自球會、球迷或是自己的壓力,畢竟球隊甚少在聯賽榜領先,我也認同因為二十年未嘗奪冠,欠缺「奪標經驗」是不足之處。

  另一長久以來的問題,無疑是「被睇好」的魔咒。一直以來,不論在盃賽聯賽,只要被睇高一線,紅軍常會大失水準,簡言之就是「海鮮波」,故有賭仔戲謔「若要生活好, 咪買利物浦」。今屆的利物浦,在上半季曾有過起色,不論是勁旅弱隊,要紅軍失分並不容易,這種全取三分的「習慣」,本來就是奪取錦標的重要一環。寧做 underdogs ,是處理壓力的問題,亦是心理素質的問題。

  欠缺入球能力,是自侯利亞年代以來利物浦的死穴,在三分制的聯賽,根本不可能染指冠軍。費托的加盟無疑改善了把握力問題,但球隊不能永遠依靠一人,而且除射手外,利物浦的整體陣容,例如兩翼側擊,未見有大改善。如果沙比缺陣,或謝拉特狀態不佳,中場的創造力亦同樣缺乏。板凳的深度亦有改進空間。

  處理壓力,避免高處不勝寒,改善進攻能力及板凳深度是長遠之計,因為當務之急是賓帥的權力及去留問題。(如果歐聯錦標不是問題的話)

沙比未過半場嘅超遠射,之後俾卡斯拿斯托出。

同樣估唔到嘅係,班拿約頭鎚奠勝。

利物浦打盃賽係好睇啲,因為唔洗佢哋攻。

揸住一粒返主場,形勢大好,不過利記一被睇高就危險。都係嗰句,皇馬入到一粒,要利記進攻就麻煩。

  2. 當年02/03年度那英國某賭博公司提早向阿記投資者派彩,結果是曼聯後上取得冠軍。

    英超出現的奇蹟,都是費格遜

    利物浦要創下奇蹟的話,回到伊斯坦堡那晚的歐聯吧

  3. 李兄,歡迎到臨敝博。
    AC米蘭的球迷嘛,歡迎常來交流一下。

    肥積,你忘了「記錄就是用來打破的」,往績不是那麼值得參考。
    還有一句,長江後浪推前浪,費格遜的王朝總會完結。

  4. I am glad that we finally have a visible supporter. Thanks for coming and hope you would keep visiting our blog.

    I am looking forward to the post-Fergie Man Utd times.

    I am really disappointed about Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal.

    The Reds and Blues only played strongly in the first half of the season.

    For the Blues, I have no comment on Big Phil. His great management on Brazil and Portugal has never been shown in Chelsea. Why didn't he play Anelka and Drogba together? Under Hiddink, both of them play well. Even when under Scolari, they had played together once in a game against Watford in the FA Cup. They got a good result.

    For the Reds, although Keane didn't play well at the beginning of the season, in December he was getting better. When he was getting better, he was left out of the squad or on the bench. Was Rafa crazy? He used Ryan Babbel or other players who were in poor form rather than one with improving form. Even this was because Rafa wanted to show his dissatisfaction on his low power on buying or selling players, this still couldn't be justified on the fact that Robbie Keane was improving and should deserve to play.

    Arsenal, I don't think I have to say anything.

    I have to say Man Utd is too strong for any team in the Premier League, although I don't like them because of their monopoly in the Premier League. They always play comparatively poorly in the first half of the season and play extremely well in the second half of the season. Ferguson has a great skill in maintaining a good form of players, buying the right players, improving players, keeping the club in a stable condition and so on. Although Man Utd haven't been the champion of the League for around four years, mind you, that was a transition period from one generation to another. Take Arsenal as an example, how long have they taken on the transformation of the team after the not-losing-49-game period? It's been 4 years? However, now, they still haven't transformed to a team which is competent enough to challenge for the champion.

    I'm disappointed on the Big Three.
