Green Ace Marshal

Situ Yunbing's remarks before this first battle were a bit aggressive.

But Klopp didn't mind. When asked about Situ Yunbing's evaluation of Arsenal in an interview before the game, Klopp nodded and said: "In some things, you don't just grasp the truth with hard words, like He thinks Arsenal still has a long way to go, and I think so too, we still have huge potential and still have a high room for improvement.

In the past few months, we have made some progress. Even a little progress will excite me and everyone on the team. This is one of the reasons why we performed well.

Maybe we will get better in the future, maybe not, but this is not about the upcoming games!

The game at Anfield Stadium will be a tough fight for Arsenal, but we are ready to meet the challenge!

Talking about the championship will only put us under tremendous pressure. We will let go of these pressures and try to make ourselves perform better than in the past.

Of course we want to win, but even if we fail to win, it will not be the end of the world!

It’s only January, not May. "

Klopp has never been an arrogant coach, so whether it is evaluating his team or looking at the gap between Arsenal and Liverpool, it is not the 6 points in the standings that can be fully reflected.

Just like in many cases, the points difference between the champion and the runner-up will not exceed 10 points, but the difference between the champion and the runner-up will never be the difference between the points that can be analyzed and concluded!

Klopp knows how far the Arsenal he took over are from the championship!

This is nothing compared to the Premier League situation when Situ Yunbing took over Liverpool.

At that time, the defending champion Manchester City was distracted by the European game. In addition to the unstable internal forces of the team, the defending champion led by Mancini was significantly less competitive. The rebuilt Chelsea and Wenger's Arsenal were also unable to attack the championship. Liverpool's only The enemy is Manchester United, and Liverpool's advantage is that they have been defeated for a long time before, and will not be noticed by their opponents. The entire competitive environment has provided good conditions for Liverpool's strong rise.

Although Klopp’s Arsenal team is much better than the Liverpool team that Situ Yunbing took over, if the lineup comparison after Situ Yunbing's signings is not enough, plus the Premier League defending champion Liverpool now has many There is a mountain in the heart of the rich that needs to look up!

With the undefeated record of more than half the season so far in the new season alone, Arsenal's desire to counterattack to win the championship is simply hard to beat.

In other words, now that Arsenal can only trail Liverpool by 6 points, Klopp has already played exceptionally.

If it weren't for Arsenal's failure in the past years, I am afraid that Arsenal's record will not be too good.

The future will be even more difficult, because now other teams have also noticed the changes that have taken place in Arsenal.

A long way to go!

On January 12, Liverpool took to Anfield to welcome Arsenal's arrival.

After recuperating in early January, Liverpool is looking forward to this first battle!

The performance of 1 wins, 3 draws and 6 points lost in the Devil's schedule was a bit stimulating to Liverpool's main team. They urgently need victory and victory against the strong team to consolidate their lead and prove their dominance!

The Anfield Stadium was packed, and it was hard to find a ticket for today's battle.

Situ Yunbing hugged Klopp on the sidelines. When shaking hands, Situ Yunbing said solemnly to Klopp: "You should know better than me that Arsenal's next season will be much more difficult than this season!"

Klopp nodded solemnly, and said to Situ Yunbing: "Didn't you come here too? What can I be afraid of?"

Situ Yunbing smiled knowingly.

Next season, other teams will see Arsenal differently.

Next season, another **** will come to the Premier League!

Guardiola!

Regardless of the success or failure of this season, the Premier League next season may usher in the "War of the Gods"!

Before the game started, Gareth Bale took his Golden Globe Award to show to the fans in the stadium and enjoyed the cheers of the fans. Situ Yunbing also applauded him again on the sidelines and was sincerely proud.

Then the starters of the two teams entered the field, and the Anfield spectators focused their attention on the upcoming game. The atmosphere was fierce and cheers were endless.

"Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the first round of the 21st Premier League match, Liverpool VS Arsenal at Liverpool Anfield!

This matchup was really unexpected, because before that, I am afraid that no one thought that Arsenal would play the role of chasing Liverpool, but Klopp’s team relied on their outstanding performance in the Christmas Devil schedule and they came behind Liverpool. Only 6 points behind Liverpool in the standings!

If Arsenal can beat Liverpool in an upset away game, I think this will definitely be a big news sensation in world football!

Because Liverpool has never been defeated by an opponent in any competition at home for more than three and a half years since Situ Yunbing took office!

And in Situ Yunbing's personal coaching career resume, he has not lost at home for more than 7 years since October 2008!

Whenever the media counts Situ Yunbing’s coaching record, it always mentions a French coach, that is Situ Yunbing old Gurcuff. During Situ Yunbing’s coaching career, only Situ Yunbing old Gurcuff ordered Situ Yunbing to lose at home. Over the ball, and it was the first show of Situ Yunbing's coaching career!

Haha, this is probably the most interesting point in Situ Yunbing's legendary coaching career.

Now I will introduce the starting lineup of both sides.

Liverpool started home 433.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Azpilicueta, Coulibaly, Benatia, Robertson.

Midfielders: Eriksson, Kanter, Casemiro.

Forwards: Gareth Bale, Lewandowski, Coutinho.

Arsenal's starting today is also 433.

Goalkeeper: Cech.

Defenders: Bellerin, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Monreal.

Midfielder: Milner, Ramsey, Wijnaldum.

Forwards: Sanchez, Giroud, Firmino.

Klopp’s abandonment of Özil has triggered speculation on Fleet Street about Özil’s departure in the summer. Although Klopp did not admit it, according to internal sources from Arsenal, he claimed that Özil was passive on defense. The role is the main reason Klopp abandons him.

Although it has caused controversy before, with Arsenal's four-game winning streak in the Christmas Devil schedule, especially after defeating Manchester City, more and more voices support Klopp. He is returning Arsenal to the toughness of ten years ago. This is the long-awaited sight of the outside world!

The good news is that once Özil leaves the team, the cash returned can help Klopp have more options when signing in the summer!

Well, the kick-off ceremony of the two teams has been completed, let us watch this first battle together!

Can Arsenal create miracles? "

With the referee's whistle, the battle curtain opened!

Liverpool, the first to kick off the ball, did not increase the rhythm as soon as it came up, but accelerated it step by step!

Arsenal put on a tight frontcourt and a tight defense in the backcourt.

Situ Yunbing admired Klopp's ability to abandon Ozil's courage and determination.

After all, Özil is the highest salary in the Arsenal team!

Abandoning him is tantamount to idle the club's most valuable resources, which is equivalent to a waste!

At the same time, once the record fails to meet expectations, the opposition from all sides will be more powerful. It is likely that Özil will be swept out before he leaves Arsenal, because the cost of coaching is always lower than the cost of changing players. Much!

The abandonment of Özil has allowed Arsenal to bid farewell to Wenger's "artistic style", which means that Klopp has officially begun to create a new gunner in his iron army style!

As for Özil’s own ability, there is no doubt, it’s nothing more than a lack of style. If Klopp is a chef and his best at making seafood dinners, he will definitely be able to use the ingredients under his hands. Throw it away first.

Özil can bring creativity to Arsenal, but the problem is that his contribution to defense is not large. How to weigh the pros and cons of such a loss and the contribution of his creativity?

Klopp made his decision. Özil is no longer the player he relies on. Even because of his high salary, Klopp will have to clean up after entering the Emirates Stadium, and then look for his favorite. , A low-cost star.

In the 5th minute of the game, Liverpool's frontcourt attack suddenly accelerated again. The midfield encountered the opponent's crazy siege and the situation could not start, and then moved to the wide attack. When Gareth Bale stopped the ball in front of Monreal, Vinaldu Mulai assisted the defense, Gareth Bale quickly knocked the ball back.

Azpilicueta came up with an assist and moved the ball to the left under the interference of Firmino.

Coutinho crossed the front left of the penalty area and directly volleyed the ball to the center of the penalty area.

Lewandowski was interrupted by Mertesacker's physical confrontation during the reception, which caused Lewandowski to stop the ball and make a mistake. Koscielny watched the ball from the side and cut the ball on time.

After Arsenal's overall style has become tough, first of all, they have improved space compression when defensive, and secondly, the team's defense has also become tougher.

This is also the main reason for their leaps and bounds, otherwise **** Manchester City!

When Arsenal launched their attack, their magic weapon was fast break!

After Ramsey and Milner quickly hit the wall in the backcourt and dodged the counter-grab from Eriksson, Ramsey passed the ball diagonally to find Sanchez. The latter saw Casemiro assist in the defense during the fast lap. On the side, he immediately made a 45-degree cross from the side.

But the ball is not passed to the hinterland of the penalty area, but the penalty area line.

Giroud did not move forward, but was the first to take the header and ferry to find Firmino in the retreat!

Kanter has nothing to do with this kind of high-altitude ball!

Firmino stopped the ball from the left side of the penalty area and then moved into the left rib area of ​​the penalty area. Before Van Dijk came to block, he shot directly!

The angle is not too good, Ter Stegen hugged the ball easily!

Arsenal took the lead in finishing the shot within the goal range!
