Chapter 362 Isolation

Compaing speed with Don Jack on the track is obviously a stupid thing.

After a few laps, Carragher gave up breathlessly, which also made Jack Don a lot angry, but the matter was not solved. Everything was temporary. The two did not get along well as before. This afternoon, Jack Don and Carragher did not say a word.

The same goes for Gerrard.

Now in the team, as long as Don Jack wants to withdraw from the midfield position, there must be a conflict with the position of the two of them. This conflict is a direct competition between professional players. When Don Jack returns to the midfield, then Gerard and Carragher must go down at least one person to ensure that every player in the team does not rush to the position. Suddenly, so that the team can play the game with maximum efficiency.

But the problem now is that Gerrard and Carragher are the absolute main force of Liverpool. It's always strange for a general like Carragher to sit on the bench. As for Gerard sitting on the bench? Even Benitez didn't dare to do this. He felt that Liverpool fans would roll him out of England with their saliva after doing so.

As a result, the contradiction arose.

Jack Don will definitely not give in. He believes that this is a competitive relationship between professional players and that he can play better in the midfield. Why did he wrong himself in order to give way to his teammates?

What's more, he found a real sense of position in the midfield.

Since he entered professional football, Jack Don's position has been fixed. He has played in frontcourt positions such as center, shadow striker, full-back and forward. He has always thought that he is a pure offensive player, and his defense is always uncoordinated with his teammates. In fact, he has not undergone any defensive running training. Wait. Now he has found his position in the midfield and understands why most of those great players are midfielders: the midfield, especially the core of the midfield, can play the greatest role for the team.

This position is very autonomous, and self-esteem is also very strong.

A player like Maradona is undoubtedly very strong. Whether it is offensive, defensive, passing, passing, etc., he has achieved the ultimate player. Such a player is outstanding in every aspect. If he appears on the forward line, it will limit his ability in some aspects, so many players drive At the beginning, it is to play wingers, strikers and other positions, but when the strength is strong, it will become the core of the team's attack.

Now Jack Don has met this position, which is related to his career. He can't give in at all.

Of course, the best result is Gerard's abdication. If Gerrard gives up his position, Don Jack will purely become the team's offensive and defensive core. He can play the greatest role. Of course, this does not mean that Gerrard will go to the bench. Players like Gerrard are very strong, even if they play strikers or pure defensive backs. It can also occupy a main position, and Carragher and Don Jack are not counted at all. In Liverpool, he is only worried about Gerard. The relationship between the two is very good, because the conflict between the position relationship is actually what Don Jack doesn't want to see.

He felt that he should call Gerard. Specifically about the situation of the two, his friends affected each other's showdown and put the matter on the surface and said that if it continues, one of them will leave Liverpool sooner or later.

But one thing the next morning made Jack Don in a very bad mood.

"Jack, I think you should apologize to Jamie. You may have something wrong with what happened yesterday. You know, Jamie almost got hurt..." On the first team training ground, this is the first thing Gerrard said when he saw Don Jack.

Jack Don's first feeling was that Gerrard was on Carragher's side.

What happened yesterday was obvious that he was just playing football, but because he grabbed Carragher's position, the latter was furious and took the initiative to hit people. If it were someone else, he would definitely be punched, and only he could hold his hand, but now Gerrard let himself apologize.

It's a little unacceptable.

"It's impossible, Steven. I think it's him who should apologize." Don Jack said.

Gerard frowned, "You..."

"Steve Steven, I know you want to adjust our relationship, but everyone saw what happened yesterday. He did it first. Why should I apologize? I can't think of a reason to convince myself."

"J Jamie was almost injured."

"What does that have to do with me, and my control is very accurate when I do it. He will only feel pain and will not be injured, otherwise he will be admitted to the hospital in the afternoon."

Gerrard frowned. Only then did he find that the dark-haired boy was so stubborn and lamented. Gerrard exhaled and said, "It's up to you." Then he walked away to train.

※※※

Gerard's persuasion bore Don Jack.

He can't figure out what's wrong with him. He has conflicts with his teammates, especially the contradictions caused by position competition. There is no way to adjust it. The main reason is that he is a strong party and apologizes to the fierce man? That guy has always bullied others with his fierceness. Being bullied by himself is like a poor little daughter-in-law. Jack Tang really despises such a person.

Since you can't compete with yourself, leave!

Jack Don thinks so. He recognizes Carragher's strength. Now the two have a competitive relationship. This competitive relationship is completely legitimate and should not be mixed with so many other factors. Baroche and Pangler have a competitive relationship with themselves, but their relationship with themselves is also good. Why can't Carragher?

It can only be said that there is something wrong with Carragher's character. He takes himself too seriously.

Similarly, Gerrard now has a direct competitive relationship with himself, but Gerrard's performance is at least for the team... Thinking of this, Don Jack is even more depressed. Although Gerrard has a good relationship with himself, he has a better relationship with Carragher. They are not only teammates of the club for several years, private good friends, but also teammates of the England national team. The relationship between the two can be imagined.

I think that when he has a conflict with Carragher, Gerrard will definitely stand on Carragher's side. What's more, Gerrard also has a competitive relationship with himself.

Such a situation makes Don Jack feel a headache. He didn't want to squeeze out Gerrard's position, but as long as he is in Liverpool, Gerrard's role in the team will definitely get lower and lower. In the past, Gerrard was the savior of Liverpool. He was the symbol of Liverpool, just because Liverpool only had Gerrard.

But now it's different. Liverpool has itself, and the fans are deeply impressed with themselves day by day. Gerrard, who is much worse than his performance, will definitely be weakened day by day. This situation is very obvious. Compared with last season, among the topics that Liverpool fans are talking about now, Gerrard appears less and less often.

This is really confusing.

On this day's training, the atmosphere in the Liverpool team revealed a strangeness. Carragher and Don Jack didn't say a word, and so did Gerrard. During the break, Carragher gathered several friends in the club and didn't know what to say. Anyway, in the afternoon, Don Jack felt as if he was isolated. .

Except for Morentus, who just came to the club, and Alonso, other teammates don't seem to pay much attention to themselves.

Jack Don thinks it's funny. Carragher really did this despicable technique. Is this playing a family card to force himself to give in? No one pays attention to him, and Jack Don doesn't care. Anyway, he must occupy a midfield position. The head coach Benitez also agrees with this. No one pays attention to himself, so he trains alone. He found Carson and returned to the reserve team to train shots together.

Because the next day was the league with Blackburn, he trained freely in the afternoon, and Benitez was not on the court, so he didn't know about it. But even if he was there, I'm afraid this outrageous Spaniard with low emotional intelligence would not find this, of course, unless someone told him clearly.

At 4 p.m., the Spanish talent appeared on the training ground, and he summoned the players to announce the starting list for tomorrow's game.

Obviously, the name of the tactical master is not overshadowed. The team's brunette boy plays a greater role in the midfield. After a game, Benitez has understood this very well, so this time he put Don Jack in the midfield. The conflict between Don Jack and Carragher is also clear, but Benitez is still reluctant to give up. Players like Carragher had to be put on the bench, but Gerrard was mentioned to the front court by him.

is still a 442 formation. Gerrard appears in the striker position, and Don Jack and Carragher are the midfield combination.

This platoon made many players stunned after listening to it. Perhaps they are sighing that Benitez's EQ is really a stubborn stone. Don Jack and Carragher just finished the conflict and let the two be partners in the midfield. Such a practice can also be done. And Gerrard is even more sad. He is the core of the team. Benitez not only gave the core to Don Jack, but also brought him to the front court, which is equivalent to letting Gerald pay for the conflict between Don Jack and Carragher!

All three of them will be very dissatisfied.

Of course, Gerrard doesn't want to pay for other people's conflicts. Similarly, Don Jack and Carragher don't want to cooperate with each other at all. Don Jack even thinks that it's better to put himself on the bench. In a word, Benitez's lineup made several people look a little strange. But no one will say it, and no one wants to make a head bird.

"Tomorrow's game is like this. The last time we beat them on the road and returned to Anfield, I don't think there is any reason for us not to win!" Before the team disbanded, Benitez kept saying, "There will be a lot of fans to watch the game tomorrow. Today, everyone should have a good rest and refresh themselves and let them see the gap with us. I hope you can keep suppressing them and show the team's level..."

After saying a lot of unrelevant words, Benitez disbanded the team.

※※※

When the next day came, the square in front of the Anfield was already overcrowded.

Liverpool fans are talking about today's game. Blackburn is not strange to them. Liverpool's opponent in the last FA Cup quarterfinals was Blackburn. They can beat their opponents away from home, let alone at home. Most fans think so. They came to Anfield just to appreciate the team's table. Acting, and the black-haired boy's goal-goal performance.

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, the fans began to enter the field.

After the warm-up, the players of the two teams also returned to their own locker room to make the final pre-war preparations. For Blackburn, today may be a serious challenge, because Blackburn lost in the last game and had nothing to say. The game has just passed, and maybe the players on the field are a little shadowy.

Now that the league is playing again, you can imagine how many chances of winning the away game.

Every player understands this truth, so Blackburn is very relaxed. Players think that a must-lose game can be played casually to show the team's level. Although head coach Sones has been stressed that the team should work hard to win, every player knows that this game is not good for Blackburn. It's important, and victory is just to boost morale. I'm afraid only a few young players will believe Soness's words.

Soon the players of the two teams appeared on the court, and the atmosphere at Anfield became hot. Liverpool fans were shouting the names of the players and cheering for the team. At the same time, Don Jack also followed the team to the field and prepared to start the game.

Today, his mood is normal. Every time he comes to the game, Jack Don's mentality will not be unbalanced. He will forget all his troubles and devote himself to the game wholeheartedly. This is a professional player's sports ethics, and he can't bring daily troubles to the game.

Before the game, Jack Don was still in the mood to say hello to the fans.

His raised arms made the Anfield Stadium suddenly boil. All the fans were shouting the name of 'Jack', which made Don Jack feel very proud. This is the support he has won in Liverpool in nearly a season, with goals and performance.

Don Jack feels that he can still have a hat-trick today.

But at the beginning of the whole game, Don Jack didn't think it was right. He participated in both defense and attack in the midfield, but he soon found that he didn't have many opportunities. In the first ten minutes of the game, he only shot once at the front of the penalty area, and this shot was only obtained by bringing the ball from the midfield to the front court. Opportunity, there is no good opportunity at any other time.

The opponent's defense is not very tight, but he plays very casually, but he just doesn't have a chance.

And soon he found the reason: his teammates gave him less passes!

In the past, Don Jack was the team's top scorer. Half of the team's right to fire and freedom belonged to him. But after the start of this game, not to mention that Carragher did not pass the ball to him, even Cowell and others on the side seldom passed the ball to him. Especially when he got to the front court, only Alonso got the ball. It will be passed to him first, and the other teammates all have a silent attitude. Even if there is no one to defend, no one will take the initiative to pass the ball.

"Corwell, what are you doing! Come on!" Once again, the midfield was unguarded, but Cowell lost the ball, and Don Jack roared angrily.

Cowell shrugged his shoulders to show that he didn't notice just now.

Looking at his expression, there are obviously scruples. Think about it and Jack Don also knows that it must be Carragher. Speaking of the reputation among Liverpool fans, Don Jack is much better than the less popular Carragher, but when it comes to the connections among his teammates, Jack Don is far worse. After all, Carragher is an old man in Liverpool. He has been with these teammates for many years. If Carragher asks for anything, they can't stand on their own. This way.

Even Gerald is the same.

Gerrard rarely passes the ball to him on the court. On the one hand, Gerrard's position is higher than him, and on the other hand, he is instigated by Carragher, like other teammates. In itself, Gerrard served as the striker of the team in this game because Don Jack became a midfielder. Although Gerrard is also often forward in the national team, that is different. In Liverpool, Gerrard has always been the core of the midfield. Obviously, this position is more important than the striker. Now Don Jack occupies an important position. No matter how he performs, it also shows that in Benitez's mind, Don Jack's position is higher than that of Gerrard.

This is a fact. There is an obvious gap in the performance of the two. Now in media reports, Don Jack is known as the 'first striker in Europe'. His performance is better than Gerrard in public psychology. But the truth is one thing, and the positioning in the team is another thing. Gerrard used to be Liverpool's most important player, but now it is not.

If Gerald wants to say in his heart that he doesn't have his own ideas, then he is a saint. Obviously, this is impossible.

The result is that on the court, Don Jack Don seems to be isolated. Most of his teammates don't pass the ball to him. If he wants to perform hard, he can only grab it by himself. He will break through with the ball and find an opportunity to shoot by himself. In this case, Liverpool's performance in the case of internal contradictions will definitely not be good. As a result, in the twenty-third minute Wait, Blackburn was the first to score a goal. It was their midfielder, Fleetcroft, with a wonderful right foot volley.

Blackburn was the first to score. The team's performance is not very good. Jack doesn't seem to be in good shape today. He is not used to his position in the midfield..." Big-mouthed Belt silently defended Don Jack.

From the perspective of the fans, you can't see so many crooked ones. From their perspective, the black-haired boy on the court has been trying to grab the ball in the backcourt, but he never passes the ball. As a result, he is wasting opportunities in the encirclement of the other side, and when he is in the front court, he always can't get the ball. Such a performance is It is described as bad.

When there is no media to expose the facts, the fans are always misled, but Don Jack's reputation in Liverpool is very good. In the hearts of the fans, even if Jack Don doesn't perform in the whole game, they only feel that Jack Don is out of shape and will not scold anything.

As the head coach, Benitez soon saw Don Jack's problem. He was isolated.

This gives Benitez a headache. No matter how low his emotional intelligence is, it is impossible for him to ask the players to pass the ball to Don Jack. In that way, he will be dissatisfied with the whole team players. Although Liverpool has some 'one-person team' nature, it is not recognized in the team, and no one can accept that he is not in the team. Status.

The result is that Liverpool's attack has not changed.

There are internal contradictions. The attacking players deliberately skipped Don Jack's point, while more people in the team are used to Don Jack scoring goals for the team. In this way, every attack of Liverpool is a tiger head and a snake tail, and Blackburn's defense is not under pressure at all.

In the 36th minute of the first half of the game, Fleetcroft scored twice to help the team pull the score to zero to two.

Fans at Anfield are very disappointed!

At halftime, Benitez talked about the problem of the first half, but his language expression had no effect at all. This may not have anything to do with Benitez' personal charm, nor did it have anything to do with the iron-handed governance of the team. Don Jack, who was isolated, felt very frustrated. When Benitez had no choice, he announced When Don Jack was replaced in the second half, he slammed the door and left the court directly.

"You really don't have any discipline!" Benitez said angrily behind him.

The Spaniards were furious. He was angry enough to be isolated by Don Jack. Now the protagonist of the matter slams the door, making him feel that he has lost face. He seems to understand why the player isolates this black-haired boy.

But for Don Jack himself, he feels that he is not wrong at all. Is it a mistake to behave well?

It was completely Carragher who provoked this matter. As a result, he was isolated by his teammates because his 'seniority' time in Liverpool was short. In short, the reason for everything was that he performed so well, which was very ridiculous, but the head coach Benitez actually replaced himself at this time, so That is to say, Benitez is also on Carragher's side.

Is it wrong to behave well?

It's really ridiculous. Jack Tang doesn't accept such a reason.

A little annoyed, Jack Don slammed the door and went out directly. Anyway, the locker room didn't seem to welcome him very much, so let's leave. As for the follow-up results, he would not pay attention to it. At this time, he even thought that he would leave Liverpool to find the next team. Because of his good performance in the team, he felt that There is really nothing to wait. I have contributed so much to the team, but now I have become isolated because of competing with Carragher for a midfield position... What's the point of these teammates and friends?

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Liverpool fans found that they could not find Don Jack. Benitez told the referee to replace him, but there was no black-haired boy on the bench, which made Liverpool fans in an uproar. They were all guessing what was going on.

Blackburn's team is a great joy!

Liverpool will obviously be much weaker without the No. 10 boy. Maybe they can really win a victory at Anfield today. That's amazing!

It can be different from what they expected. When the game began, Liverpool quickly scored a goal. It was Gerard, who was the striker. After that, Liverpool began to fight a solid defensive counterattack. Even without Don Jack, Liverpool is a quasi-first-class team, which is no less than Blackburn.

In the first half, with Don Jack, he couldn't pass the ball, so Liverpool didn't play half of his strength, but now they have no scruples. The game is much smoother. Although they don't have such strong scoring ability, they can't say they are weak.

In the cheers of many Liverpool fans at Anfield, the Liverpool players played very well. In the eighty-first minute of the game, Alonso received a wonderful shot from Cowell to equalize the score.

However, there is no weakness of Don Jack.

Blackburn scored two goals in the first half, and now it is too difficult for Liverpool to score another goal. As a result, the two sides shook hands with a 2:2 score, which is almost equivalent to losing for Liverpool.
