Four Hundred and Eighty First, the Devil's Schedule Is Coming!

As Christmas is approaching, cities across the UK have already entered the rhythm of preparing for Christmas. There are smiling pedestrians everywhere on the roads, department stores are overcrowded, and every family is sweeping their goods.

Situ Yunbing is still a little unaccustomed to this pace of life. In the past four years, whether in France or Germany, he was able to happily spend a Christmas holiday, but in the UK, he will continue to lead the team.

Two days before the weekend's game day, Situ Yunbing sent a text message to Sigrid, and he was a little bit embarrassed that he couldn't accompany her during the Christmas holiday.

His boyfriend is becoming less and less caring and considerate, and even cut down the time spent with him during the holidays.

It is probably at this moment that Situ Yunbing can understand how some coaches always like to "spend more time with their families" when they retire.

To outsiders, football coaches may look like nine-to-five office workers, but that's just for ordinary coaches. The teams coached by famous coaches have European competitions, and they have been competing for championships for many years. The holiday of each season is only one month in summer, and if it involves transfers, summer may also be very busy.

Going to an away game on weekdays is like a short business trip. If there is an away game in Europe, then you have to travel far away.

The game day is often on the weekend, and it is almost impossible to spend time with the family on the weekend.

This made Situ Yunbing feel guilty, and began to seriously think about the balance between career and life.

In the early morning of the second day after Situ Yunbing sent a text message to Sigrid, he was woken up by the doorbell. Sleepy in his pajamas, he thought it was the staff of the Hilton Hotel who were disturbing him, but when he opened the door, he was taken aback!

"Surprise?!"

What caught my eye was Sigrid in a snow-white coat with her arms outstretched and a smile on her face, and behind her were her smiling parents.

Situ Yunbing was hugged by Sigrid, and he didn't react immediately.

The future father-in-law gave Situ Yunbing a "critical blow" at this time!

"Looking at his expression, it seems that there are still people in the bedroom."

The future mother-in-law is also very naive assists.

"Probably more than one.

"

Situ Yunbing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shouted towards the bedroom: "Hey, hide quickly! Don't get caught! Jumping out of the window is the fastest!"

Sigrid laughed, and said, "This is more than 20 floors high, and you won't fall to your death if you jump down? Besides, it's so cold outside, and it didn't take long to open the window?"

Situ Yunbing joked, "Your analysis makes sense, great detective Sigrid Sherlock."

After laughing, Situ Yunbing called the hotel and asked for breakfast for four people, and then he made tea in the pantry.

Sigrid and her parents came to Liverpool this time to accompany Situ Yunbing for Christmas, or maybe they are bored in France, so they might as well come to England for a visit.

Situ Yunbing was naturally moved by the hospitality, and opened another room in the hotel for Sigrid's parents, and bought a comfortable SUV for them to travel around. The two cars Situ Yunbing parked in the hotel now, one is for his daily transportation and the other is a sports car, are not suitable for them.

Last weekend Casemiro was sent off directly in the league with a red card. According to the regulations of the Premier League, he will be suspended for three games. However, the suspension of the Premier League is applicable to all domestic games. Postpone adjustments to the Christmas Devil schedule.

Situ Yunbing was in a good mood, and he complimented Aston Villa coach Paul Lambert in the pre-match press conference of the weekend league, which made Fleet Street reporters couldn't help but look up to Paul Lambert.

You must know that Situ Yunbing has always treated non-rich coaches with respect, even if the other party speaks rudely, Situ Yunbing does not care about it, but he will definitely not praise the other party.

But after thinking about the fate of former Chelsea coach Rodgers, Fleet Street started conspiracy theories again, thinking that Situ Yunbing sprayed Paul Lambert's face with "poisonous milk"!

Liverpool played at home against Aston Villa on the weekend, and Liverpool's starting lineup finally seemed to make up for the flaws in the defense.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Carragher, Skrtel, Benatia, Enrique.

Midfield: Eriksson, Gerrard, Casemiro.

Forwards: Sterling, Suarez, Coutinho.

Aston Villa is a good counter-attack player. Liverpool's defense line did not have any problems on the wing today, but Casemiro's performance in the midfielder position was very disappointing!

It's not a technical reason, but the whole person is out of shape, he seems slow when handling the ball, and his defense is a little frizzy.

Situ Yunbing thought that maybe the Brazilian players were not used to fighting at this time.

Not to mention Brazilian players, even many European players will feel uncomfortable when they play games in mid-to-late December in their first season in the Premier League!

Fortunately, Benatia played superbly on the back line today, almost restraining Aston Villa striker Benteke to go crazy. At least two and a half single-handed chances were destroyed by Benatia's pursuit and assist defense!

Paul Lambert watched stunned from the sidelines, and fell into a state of numbness after repeated disappointments.

I can't help but believe in the conspiracy theory of Fleet Street. Situ Yunbing's mouthful of tainted milk definitely cursed Aston Villa!

Liverpool's striker did not perform particularly well today, but the victory lies in its strong firepower.

Gerrard opened the scoring for Liverpool with a powerful shot from the line of the penalty area.

Then Sterling scored a lightning goal at the beginning of the second half and made another victory!

After 20 minutes, using a set kick to attack, Skrtel Tieshu blossomed and scored with a header!

Liverpool beat Aston Villa 3-0 at home!

Paul Lambert said helplessly after the game: "The score cannot truly reflect the state of the game. In fact, we had a chance to draw and even win the game, but after missing many opportunities, our confidence and mentality were affected at the same time."

A reporter asked about Situ Yunbing's praise for him before the game.

Lambert shook his head and muttered: "I don't want to hear his compliments to me again. I don't know if it's an oriental witchcraft."

Situ Yunbing is in a good mood. After winning this game, Liverpool still has a big lead in the standings. Manchester United and Manchester City also both won this round. The competition for the league championship has entered the stage of competition.

Liverpool, 44 points.

Manchester United, 39 points.

Manchester City, 35 points.

 …

The Premier League is about to enter the Christmas Devil schedule.

On the 22nd, Liverpool played against Fulham at home.

On the 26th, Liverpool challenged Stoke City away.

On the 29th, Liverpool challenged Queens Park Rangers as a guest.

On January 1, Liverpool played against Sunderland at home.

Four Premier League games in ten days, with an average of two days between each game!

After the home game against Aston Villa, Situ Yunbing had a long talk with Casemiro.

The two masters and apprentices were open and honest. Casemiro said that he felt tired. He often felt that his body had not recovered to his best condition when he should go to the team for training in the morning. At the same time, he also told Situ Yunbing frankly that his family and relatives in Brazil were looking forward to him being able to go back for Christmas, and he was distracted by this.

Situ Yunbing considers that Casemiro can be said to be the player with the highest attendance rate in Liverpool in the first half of the season besides Ter Stegen. He started almost every game in the league. When he was adapted to the Premier League in the early stage, he also appeared in the cup!

He does feel tired. Unlike goalkeepers who are tired mentally, midfielders are naturally tired physically.

Situ Yunbing very reasonablely gave Casemiro a vacation, asked him to return to Brazil for Christmas, and waited until January next year to return to the club and gave him 10 days off.

Casemiro immediately pledged to give his all for the club upon his return, while also recharging his energy during the holidays and not getting carried away with having fun.

Liverpool canceled the appeal against Casemiro's red card. Anyway, the players are on vacation, so they will be suspended as "serving prison time".

Another Brazilian player, Lucas, became the main midfielder that Liverpool must rely on during the Christmas Devil's schedule.

There was a cheerful atmosphere at Anfield as the Christmas Devils kicked off.

Many fans dressed up as Santa Claus, and at the same time, family members brought their children to the stands of the stadium to watch the game. Some young fans held a model of the Premier League championship trophy in their hands, as if silently saying that the Christmas gift they wanted was the Premier League championship!

The first opponent of the Devil's schedule is Fulham.

Martin Jol is also a veteran in the Premier League, but the record of leading Fulham this season is not ideal. Even if the team has a big-name striker Berbatov, it cannot conceal that they are one of the worst defensive teams in the Premier League, conceding almost two goals per game!

Liverpool's lack of Casemiro's impact is not too great. After all, Casemiro has not yet grown to the stage where he can stand alone. Lucas just has no future in Situ Yunbing's eyes, but it does not mean that he has no strength.

Continuing to use last weekend's starter, but replacing Casemiro with Lucas, Liverpool played very well at home!

Coutinho accelerated his integration into the team and began to play his role, ensuring Liverpool's creativity on the offensive end. Coupled with the steady improvement of Eriksson's performance, Liverpool gradually got rid of the image of sharp counterattacks at Anfield. They also have great achievements in positional battles!

Suarez and Coutinho shined in this game. The two scored twice to help Liverpool beat Fulham 4-0 at home!

The first game of the devil's schedule was successfully won!
