These games are against Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal,  Everton game.  Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal are giants and old rivals. You must not lose the game against them. Losing not only hurts morale, but is also equivalent to losing 6 points. The game against Everton is the most special. If Manchester United,  If Chelsea and Arsenal are opponents, then Everton is the enemy. The game with the enemy is a life-and-death struggle. Since it is a struggle, of course you cannot lose. If you lose, you will not be able to hold your head high this season.  Without Liverpool, Everton's status in the Premier League is pretty good. It has won several league championships and FA Cup championships, and has also entered the Champions League. But with the dazzling giant Liverpool, all of Everton's glory  They are all covered up, they are like a shabby settlement, no one knows, the only time they are mentioned is to set off the brilliance of Liverpool.  This gap in status and strength has made Liverpool and Everton full of hatred. With the rise of Liverpool in recent years, this hatred has become more and more intensified. Every derby is a war for the two clubs.  Before the game, there was constant squabbling between players and coaches, red and yellow cards were commonplace during the game, the war between players and coaches was quite civilized, and there was naked violence between fans. Before every derby, the police in Liverpool were extremely nervous, lest the two sides  A group fight broke out among the team's fans.  Everton head coach Moyes is young, but he has been coaching Everton for a long time. He has been in charge of the Toffees since 2001 and has been with Everton for seven years. Under his leadership,  Everton has changed from a team that was short of funds and had to fight for relegation every year to a mid-to-upper-tier team and posed a great threat to the top four of the Premier League. For this reason, he was named the best in the Premier League in the 0405 season.  coach.  If there were no Liverpool, if there was no Benitez, maybe Moyes would be the hero of Merseyside now, but now, the hero is Benitez, Chen Yu, and Gerrard, and Everton is still  It is a stunted grass that is blocked from the sun by a big tree.  Of course, Moyes is full of resentment and jealousy towards Liverpool and Benitez. With such emotions, reporters deliberately tempted him, and what Moyes said before the game did not sound so good.  "The derby is undoubtedly one of the most important games. We need a win and Everton fans also need a win. Maybe in the Premier League and in the world, Everton is a small club, but in Liverpool, Everton is a small club.  Everton is the team with the longest history, the best and the most popular fans Everton has never been afraid of Liverpool. Facing them, we can always perform at a better level. Although Liverpool are in good shape now, I  I believe we will win at Goodison Park -" Moyes' words sound harmless, but anyone familiar with the feud between Everton and Liverpool knows that this is a satire on Benitez, because Benitez last season  Niites once mocked Everton, saying they were a small club that just wanted not to lose.  Of course, Benitez cannot show weakness at this time. Derby is derby, and he must suppress his opponents both on and off the court.  "You can only know who is the best team after competing. It is up to you to decide whether it is the best or not. Liverpool is the Premier League champion and the Champions League champion. I dare not say that we are the best team, but we are definitely  We are one of the best teams. Derby is a very special game, but the victory is only three points. I believe we will win, but I don¡¯t think we need special treatment.¡± Benitez said very confidently.  This kind of confidence is based on absolute strength. Regardless of the outcome of this game, Liverpool is the champion of the Premier League and the Champions League, and Everton is the second-tier Premier League. This is a fact that cannot be changed, and Benitez simply cannot  Don't think they will lose to Everton.  The two coaches started the game first, and then it was time for the players to perform. Both players expressed their confidence and desire to win, and of course they would not give up attacking their opponents. This war of words continued until the end of the game.  same day.  In the week before the game, the "battle" between Liverpool fans and Everton fans has not stopped. Since both sides are in the same city, it is inevitable that there will be friction between the fans of both sides during the parade. Once it intensifies  , will soon form $ brawls. This kind of thing happens every day, which makes the Liverpool police very worried. They have to arrest and deal with so many brawlers every day. Their police force is really overwhelmed. They wish that the game can be over as soon as possible. It¡¯s good for them.  relax for a moment.  On October 20, at 12:45 local time in the UK, the first focus match of the 10th round of the 2007/08 English Premier League started at Goodison Park Stadium.?This is the 206th Merseyside Derby. The two sides have met 30 times in the Premier League. Liverpool has the upper hand with 11 wins, 11 draws and 8 losses.  In the previous 176 league games, Liverpool had 65 wins, 55 draws and 56 losses.  Last season, Everton and Liverpool each defeated their opponents at home. It was the second time Everton defeated the Red Army in the past 9 home games. The remaining 7 games had 2 draws and 5 losses.  In the 9 league rounds before this game, Everton ranked 9th with four wins, four losses and one draw, while Liverpool led the Premier League with an unbeaten record.  ??Obviously, Derby cannot be predicted based on previous results. This is a war. If either side is careless and underestimates the enemy, they may be faced with the most painful blow.  For two teams full of grievances like this, their bosses will definitely not stay in the same box to watch the game. Even if they are both gentlemen, they will feel restrained and awkward watching the game in the same box because they will be excited or unhappy.  When you are playing, you need to consider the feelings of another person even to curse, and there will definitely be quite a few such situations in 90 minutes. Watching the game like this is a torture for them.  Although we can¡¯t sit in the same box, Everton¡¯s two owners Bill.  Kenwright, Robert.  Earle and Liverpool's two bosses, Gillette and Hicks, came to the stadium early. For such a game, the boss's absence would be a blow to the team's morale, and they also wanted to see their players.  Performance in the derby.  For a player, the best reflection of his ability is not how well he plays in ordinary games, but whether he performs well in tough battles, and derby is a tough battle among tough battles. Being able to perform well in derby  Players are often called derby heroes by fans and can have the support of all fans. Even if they perform well in derby and perform well in a season, they will not be given up by fans. But if it is the other way around, and perform well even in a season,  If he performs abnormally in the derby, fans will feel that this player is not good, or at least too soft. He can become a star, but he cannot become the core and soul.  The game has begun. In such a game, the process is as important as the result. There are no highs and lows. Everyone must start with momentum, so as soon as the ball kicks off in the center circle, the rhythm is very fast and intense.  Liverpool used a 4-4-2 formation for this game: 25-Reina; 3-Finnan, 23-Carragher, 4-Hyypia, 6-Riise; 20-Mascherano,  14-Alonso, 16-Pennant, 11-Benayoun; 18-Kuyt, 9-Chen Yu This is the strongest lineup that Liverpool can currently field. Gerrard's injury has not fully recovered.  Agger is no longer in his best form, and although Hyypia is too old, his recent performance is still remarkable. He is also a genuine central defender, and his starting start is expected.  Although there is still a gap compared to Liverpool with a full lineup, compared to Everton, Liverpool's strength on the card also occupies a considerable advantage.  Everton's starting lineup is also a 442 formation, goalkeeper 24-Howard; defenders 2-Hibbert, 4-Yabo, 15-Stubbs, 5-Lescott; midfielder: 6-Arteta,  16-Gagilka, 18-Phil.  Neville, 21-Osman; forward: 22-Yakub, 28-Anichebe.  Compared with the star-studded Liverpool, Everton's lineup is relatively simple. Except for Neville from Manchester United, the others are all well-known practical players. However, don't think that Everton's players are not well-known.  Their fighting ability is not strong. Under the training of Marshal Moyes for more than six years, Everton is like their nickname "Toffee". They are persevering, stalking and cooperating with each other tacitly. Anyone who encounters such an opponent will be disappointed.  It won't be very comfortable, not to mention that when playing against Liverpool, Everton can always play at the same level as the giants.  If Liverpool were more cautious and steady when playing against other teams, they were not conservative at all against Everton. They kicked off first. After kicking off, the ball did not return to the backcourt and was passed directly from the midfield.  Toward Everton's half.  Playing like this when Everton's forward has not completely crossed the center line, it is easy to steal the ball, but this is not important, the important thing is to show momentum and let Evertonians know who is the boss of Merseyside  , even if it is at the doorstep of Everton, they will never be afraid of them.  This performance of Liverpool is very popular with Liverpool fans. When Liverpool attacks, Liverpool fans keep singing and applauding. From time to time, they can even break through the suppression of 30,000 Everton fans, allowing their players to feel the coming from them.  The passion of the fans.  The commentator on the scene couldn't help but say: "A wealthy club is a wealthy club. Just look at this opening, which is grand and domineering. Although Everton is also tough, it is still a bit behind in terms of momentum." It may not be as good as Liverpool in terms of momentum, but Everton  They played well. They faced Liverpool's onslaught and responded very toughly. They chased and intercepted Liverpool's ball-carrying players and cut off Liverpool's passing and cutting cooperation. Once they encountered Liverpool's players breaking through, they immediately took action.The vicious fouls prevented Liverpool from playing smoothly, nor could they rely on their personal abilities to create space for their teammates.  Of course, Everton's performance cannot be called wonderful, but it is an absolute man. A team like Everton is only in the middle of the Premier League. The fans do not have high demands on them. They play like this against Liverpool and do not fall behind or lose their fighting spirit.  , Everton fans felt very good, and the applause was continuous, which gave Everton fans more courage and confidence.
