With maxed-out heading ability from the start, I became the king of Arsenal.

Chapter 53: Before the match even started, Dalglish's prestige had already plummeted by half.

Sun Yun could clearly feel that ever since Dalglish took the initiative to challenge Stoke City, Pulis seemed to be surrounded by blue skies, white clouds, and sunshine every day.

No matter how bad the weather was in England, as long as Pulis sat there, he always gave Sun Yu the feeling of sunbathing at the beach.

Sun Yu was unsure of Dalglish's reasons for launching a psychological attack on Pulis three days before the match.

Perhaps it was Torres' temporary resurgence in form against Chelsea that prompted Dalglish to provoke Pulis, thus inducing a high-scoring match between Stoke City and Liverpool.

Or perhaps Dalglish wanted to use the industry influence he had built up thirty years ago to make a strong impression?

But he clearly miscalculated. The influence he created at Liverpool was only useful in those few years. As soon as the team's performance declined, how much of the prestige he had built up could be retained depended on whether the opposing manager was not good enough.

Dalglish led Liverpool to five top-flight league titles as both player and manager, just when everyone at Liverpool thought he was about to build another dynasty.

He left...

He saw himself as a top professional manager and did achieve success at Blackburn, but he also stumbled at Newcastle.

Compared to Dalglish, Ferguson's start at Manchester United was nothing short of disastrous.

When Ferguson vowed to dethrone Liverpool, Dalglish mocked him, saying he was out of his mind, and the entire English media supported him.

In such a hostile environment, Ferguson was just one step away from being sacked in his third year managing Manchester United.

Faced with such pressure, Dalglish would most likely just lift both hands off the keyboard and say, "Destroy it."

Ferguson withstood the pressure, first winning the cup title, and then winning two consecutive Premier League titles.

Many people thought he took off from this point?

No!

Sir Alex Ferguson faced far more difficulties in his career than most people could imagine, but he persevered and eventually retired gloriously at Manchester United.

More than a decade later, Dalglish can no longer be compared to Ferguson, but he is still a "luxury" compared to Price.

At least in the eyes of many, Dalglish's return to Liverpool will usher in a new era of dominance for the club.

The reason is simple: his aura at Liverpool was too strong.

As long as he doesn't fail, Priss will always be a nobody in Dalglish's eyes.

Dalglish hasn't yet learned how to handle this kind of relationship in the world of commercial football.

Look at how other well-known head coaches treat Pulis.

After Tottenham were defeated, Redknapp praised Sun Yu with great seriousness: "That kid played really well."

note!

It's praise.

It's not a compliment to Pris.

His subtext was clear: the inferior cannon being transported by the horse-drawn carriage, loaded with a shell that had somehow been picked up from the road, hadn't exploded.

admire!

Ancelotti expressed surprise at the Stoke City players' ability to withstand pressure.

They managed to hold on?

That wasn't easy!

Wenger was also furious after the game last season, but he cited Stoke City as a prime example.

"If there are too many teams like this, don't expect the Premier League to have high viewership."

"The referee's decisions against the Stoke City players were tantamount to condoning violence."

"If the opponent wants to maintain this tactic, they need to work on their players' javelin throwing ability and rugby tackling ability."

When the three renowned managers commented on Stoke City, they all adopted a high-handed attitude, expressing the same idea: I don't actually care about them that much.

Ferguson's post-match comments about Sun Yu and Pulis sounded more like the aristocracy's disdain for the common people.

"That boy is a real tiger; he almost ran away and lost his socks."

"If these mid-to-lower table teams could perform like they did against Manchester United in every game, they would never have ended up like this."

Not only do top managers look down on Pulis, a second-year Premier League manager, but even second-tier managers like Moyes and Bruce look down on him.

In everyone's eyes, Stoke City, where Pulis was in charge, was a short-lived upstart.

Before the battle even began, Dalglish started challenging him: "You old bastard, Priest, do you dare fight me for a hundred rounds?"

This is like Louis Vuitton suing Jasmine Milk, demanding 1000 million yuan in compensation.

Jasmine, her skin white, roared, "Come and see! The donkey is bullying the weak! I won't stand for it!"

"I will never give in to it!"

The owner of Jasmine Milk Tea went home and burst into laughter: "I spend more than 1000 million on marketing every year, but none of it has the same marketing effect as this!"

"Old donkey just doesn't understand the basic principles of business marketing."

So when people think of donkeys, they subconsciously associate them with popular foods like milk tea, hamburgers, snail rice noodles, and chicken legs.

Luxury goods are expensive because they symbolize a superior social status and are valuable because they allow people to show off.

Dalglish's mistake was that he downplayed the prestige of five English top-flight league titles to that of Stoke City.

Faced with Dalglish's psychological warfare, Price was in high spirits for the next few days, his whole body was on edge, and his brain was working at high speed every day.

He had to give an interview every day, and he disgusted Dalglish every day.

Day 1: I think Dalglish's return this time is a huge mistake that will ruin his historical standing. He was not prepared at all.

The next day: You asked me why I wasn't prepared. His tactical style is very outdated and hasn't changed at all in the past 25 years.

No Premier League manager with so many good players could possibly play that kind of old-school football.

Day 3: He said my tactics were ugly? That's called being down-to-earth! I had no choice, unlike him who's still living in the past.

For the past three days, Dalglish has been refuting Pulis's statements, probably thinking it was a matter of responding to each move, but he has completely lost his rhythm and is always explaining himself.

Just two days before the match between the two teams, Ferguson entered the fray, criticizing Dalglish for his lack of respect for mid-to-lower-table teams and mocking his opponent for being unsportsmanlike.

Everton manager David Moyes also mentioned Kenny Dalglish in an interview, and his comments were quite pointed: "I don't really care what happened to them. Their results have fallen behind in recent seasons, but their transfer budget doesn't seem to have decreased."

11 month 14 day.

Premier League Round 13.

Stoke City hosted a star-studded but low-ranked Liverpool team at home.

Sun Yu was excited to see Liverpool players; he had encountered a team he could only see on his computer in his previous life.

But the Liverpool players didn't seem very enthusiastic. Was it because they thought the venue wasn't up to par? Or were they having a headache facing Stoke City?

Whatever the reason, Sun Yu is determined to show Liverpool what a tyrant he is!
