King of Competition

Chapter 307 Merseyside Derby 2

"Steven, how are you?"

On the court, Don Jack passed the ball to Gerrard. Seeing that he slipped and fell to the ground, he immediately asked. Gerrard took Don Jack's hand, stood up from the grass, and shouted, "What can I do? Take care of yourself!"

"Haha, I knew it."

"Are you too nervous?"

"How is that possible?" Don Jack smiled and said, "Even if you are all nervous, I won't be nervous."

At this time, Barosh ran over from the sidelines, holding a newspaper in his hand. He pointed to the text on the newspaper and shouted to Jack Don, "Jack! Steven!"

"What's the matter?" Don Jack turned his head and asked.

Barosh handed the newspaper to the two people and pointed to the headline above and said, "Look!"

"What?"

Don Jack looked over, and Gerrard also put his head over. He saw the headline clearly written in the newspaper: "Stubbs: The game has nothing to do with victory or defeat. Everton needs glory!"

The title is puzzling, and Gerrard read it quickly---

"The Merseyside Derby is coming, and Everton and Liverpool are in the same situation..."

“...... In an interview with reporters, Everton's tough player, main central defender Stubbs, said: 'I hate Liverpool very much, so I will look forward to playing with them. For the team, the important thing in the game with Liverpool is not to win or lose, but to play the team's momentum in the game, we need more glory!'"

If other people look, they may be puzzled by the words, and for the derby war, what is glory? That is to play the momentum of the team and make the opponent sad. Even if your side is uncomfortable, you have to make the opponent feel uncomfortable. This strange way of harming others and yourself is often the Derby War.

This is the glory of fans' understanding, a very different glory!

Stubbs seems to want to express that he wants to defend the team's glory, which is obvious, that is, to provoke Liverpool.

Seeing these words, Gerrard looked calm.

Gerrard has been in Liverpool for so many years, and his hatred for Everton has been deeply rooted in his bones. As a Liverpool fan, Gerrard's experience is more obvious. However, after participating in so many Liverpool derbys, Gerrard has long been used to speaking to the players of the two teams before the game.

"Every year, Everton takes the initiative to stir up trouble." Gerrard laughed and said, "It's nothing. It's just the beginning. I think it will be more lively tomorrow, because they are the home court. They talk very hotly every time, but they lose every time.

In fact, Everton has not defeated Liverpool for five years.

Hearing Gerard's words, Don Jack also smiled indifferently. In fact, in every important game, a player will jump out and say a few words before the game. One is to express his attitude and the club, and the other is to cheer up the fans and let them know the team's determination.

For Everton fans, the words 'It has nothing to do with victory or defeat, only glory' is obviously good for taste. They don't care about victory. What they are most concerned about is that the team has to play momentum. It doesn't matter whether they win or not. The important thing is to let 'Liverpool reduce its staff on the court' or 'the team is stronger than Liverpool. This is what Everton fans want to see most.

What a strange theory.

As a result, after the afternoon training, when Jack Don was interviewed, when a reporter asked about Stubbs, Jack Tang laughed and said, "It's nothing. He has no confidence in the game, so he said so."

This sentence suddenly aroused the interest of media reporters.

The important thing is that these English journalists are already in the Liverpool derby war. The slogan of the derby war every year is similar to what Stubbs said, so they are not surprised, but when Don Jack said so, they immediately realized that there seemed to be a loophole in this slogan.

In the face of a group of reporters, Jack Don smiled and said, "We will also play the momentum of the team, but at the same time, we will also pursue victory. And they don't have the confidence to win, so they can only shout this old slogan.

This sentence immediately ignited the ** of the media.

That night, the whole city of Liverpool knew what Don Jack said in front of reporters. Many Everton fans were almost dissatisfied with the demonstration. Fortunately, the Liverpool police went out at night to organize such a large-scale operation.

It is impossible for Everton Club to be unresponsive.

The next morning, an Everton player jumped out to refute Don Jack's words. It was Everton's midfielder Kilbany, the Irish international accused Don Jack in front of reporters: "He should be worried about himself. This is Goodson!"

"We are fighting for glory, not rhetoric."

This is what Everton striker Bent said. He is accusing Jack Don of only playing with words. "I will let him know the power in the game," Bent said at the end of the interview. But as a striker, there is no conflict between Bent and Don Jack. Does Everton have to fight back defensive and the striker has to defend?

The loophole in Bent's words was caught by the media supporting Liverpool, so they attacked Bent, and the Liverpool Morning Post said, "Bente doesn't seem to have confidence. He has been scared by Jack."

At this time, Gerrard stood up to support Don Jack. In response to Kilbarney's words, Gerrard said, "He can only use his mouth, not his legs. I think his goal can prove everything."

honest people really can't be bullied!

Gerard's words directly exposed Kilbani's scars. The latter did not score a goal in the first dozen rounds of the league. As a winger, this data is really pitiful. He is a prince in Everton, but no one can use Everton, still put him in the main position.

※※※

The players blame each other in front of the media reporters. When they launch a war of saliva, the fans will naturally not be idle. Many reporters go to interview the hardcore fans of the two teams.

Compared with the players, what these fans say is less scrupulous.

In an interview, some radical Everton fans even said, "I hope that in the game, the opponent's annoying No. 10 will break his legs and get injured. That will be the most perfect ending!"

This makes people feel creepy.

More fans are predicting their team's victory---

"I hope to see a 1:0 score, Everton wins, and the only goal is an own goal..."

"We will teach them a lesson that day and tell everyone that Liverpool belongs to Everton, the winner? Of course, it's Everton."

"They will have weak legs at Goodson Garden. How can they win?"

......

The words of these Everton radical fans have all reached the ears of Liverpool fans. How can Liverpool fans give in---

"Such annoying guys, they should go to hell."

"What we get is victory, what we get is glory, and they can only watch the victory, but never get it."

"They have lost for five years in a row. I think it's not a big deal this year." This sentence hurts Everton fans the most. When losing has become a habit, what glory do they have?
