It looked like everyone was relieved.

Dalglish felt as if he was back in the past.

It was a rainy night more than 20 years ago...

"You should get stuck first! Instead of stretching your feet!"

"I know, but he was so fast, maybe we should double-team next time."

Only Henderson and Johnson are different from the others. They are discussing how to defend the opponent's breakthrough on the wing.

This made Dalglish a little impressed, this young man was better than he had imagined.

He took another look at Gerrard, who had just returned from injury.

Perhaps, there is no need to replace him so early.

When everyone sat down, he kicked the tactical board away.

This startled everyone, and each of them straightened their backs, lowered their heads, and prepared to be punished.

"Today we don't talk about tactics, I'll tell you a story." Dalglish pulled up a chair and sat among the crowd, like an old man recalling the past.

He slowly closed his eyes:

"That was 23 years ago. At that time, the club had just experienced a huge change that affected the entire Premier League. Oh, it was not called the Premier League at that time, it was called League One, hehehe."

"Joe Fagan just resigned. Because of that incident, everyone was reluctant to coach the club. At that time, I was the team's forward and I was also the head coach. Well, it was still very handsome."

"Just imagine Giroud, if you don't perform well, I will change the jersey and replace you..."

Before Dalglish finished speaking, someone in the dressing room was the first to laugh...

Then, Dalglish himself laughed, "Hahaha, at that time, the TV commentary often said: Oh? Look, Liverpool's coach Dalglish is warming up, and the forward Rush he is going to replace ...Hahaha."

Everyone also laughed, such a scene is very interesting just thinking about it.

But Giroud couldn't laugh. Who knows if the BOSS blamed him for "passing the house three times without entering" in the first half?

Seeing Giroud like this, Dalglish stretched out his hand to comfort him: "Don't worry, kid. Although I scored a lot of goals at that time, I often got zero seals. It's nothing."

"Hahaha, let's get down to business. In that season, the team was very difficult. We couldn't defend the title in the previous season. You know, at that time, we were equivalent to Bayern in the Bundesliga, and we rarely met opponents!"

"Even the two guys next door, um, Manchester United and Manchester City, are not our opponents at all!"

"Well, I admit that Manchester United is second in the league, but the real threat is the Forest team that once dominated the Champions League."

"The top three in League One, the jerseys are all red, what does that mean?"

"Yes, there is only one red that can have the last laugh."

Everyone seems to have seen the three super teams of Liverpool, Manchester United and Nottingham Forest fighting on the field.

"In the middle of the season, we also encountered the same problem now. Yes, that season we introduced Beardsley and Barnes, as the media said, top-heavy, ah ha ha ha."

The light in Dalglish's eyes became brighter and clearer, and seemed to be able to reflect the picture of the game.

"The game against the Forest team is still extremely dangerous when I think about it now. We were once behind 0 to 2, and once we lost that game, we would be overtaken by the Forest team and Manchester United at the same time!"

"Alan Hansen, yes, that is the guy who was the commentator for the BBC. This kid was the team's main defender at the time. Hehe, I thought he was beaten up during the intermission."

"I was the coach, he was the captain, but I was a player when I was on the pitch, did you ever feel that way?"

As if amused by his own words, Dalglish waved his hand, "I wanted to teach him a lesson and comfort him, but after thinking about it, it seemed that the first goal was caused by my own mistakes in the frontcourt. "

Finally, De Gea couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing this, Lindy threw the thick towel over.

Shit, is this the time to laugh?

Caught off guard, De Gea fell off the chair in all directions, and the laughter stopped abruptly.

"Hahahahahaha..."

This really caused a roar of laughter, and even Dalglish laughed too.

After a while, he slowly stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Haha, listen to me first."

"Then I asked Hansen, what about the second half?"

"Guess what he said? Fortunately, this kid retired to be a commentator. If it wasn't because he was afraid of being sprayed by the BBC every day, I would definitely beat him up!"

Everyone stared at Dalglish curiously.

"He said: You are the head coach, you ask me?? 0 to 2, 0 guess who is responsible??"

Lindy's eyes widened. This Hansen is so awesome? ?

Dare to talk to the "king" like that? ?

Carragher and Age looked at each other, feeling as if they had learned something, and felt like they hadn't.

Dalglish went on to say, "I lost my temper at the time, but fortunately, this kid changed the subject quickly. I remember he added a sentence later: Boss, you score more, and I will shovel more in the second half. It's not a big problem, don't panic!"

"Hahaha, I don't know where this kid has the courage to say that."

"But the morale of the whole team has really improved all of a sudden. It is normal for defenders to face stronger opponents than themselves. Sometimes he is not stronger than you, maybe it's just a style."

"Brave, yes, what I want to say is brave. What defense needs is bravery, not necessarily skill!"

"Remember, this is a competitive sport, a contest between men, not a sissy sport!" Dalgliesh stretched out his right fist and gestured fiercely.

Including Johnson, Enrique, Agger, and Carragher nodded silently, thoughtful.

Seeing this, Dalglish smiled slightly, and continued, "In the second half of the game, Hansen did exactly what he said, and made the Forest team's offensive team turn their backs. The rhythm was out of order, the spirit was lost, and the offense was very difficult to succeed." .”

"And I'm going to be responsible for solving the 0 problem that this bastard kid said, 3 to 2!"

"In the first half, I was saved consecutively, and I scored two goals alone!" As he said, Dalglish looked at Giroud intentionally or unintentionally.

"Problem solved, very simple."

Dalglish had a happy smile on his face, as if he was reliving the game 23 years ago.

"At the end of the season, we got the final league trophy."

While everyone was immersed in the story, the smile on Dalglish's face suddenly faded, and he slowly said the last sentence of the intermission:

"However, in the club's honor gallery, so far, there has not been any Premier League championship trophy."
