Strong Waist

The Champions League grouping is determined, and Arsenal's Group H will directly become the death group.

This is not good news for Arsenal. The Champions League is full of intensity from the beginning.

Whether it is Paris Saint-Germain or Dortmund, these are difficult opponents to deal with. For this reason, Arsenal need to invest more energy in the Champions League.

Lucky previously said that it doesn't matter who you kick, this is a way of boosting morale, but if you can play more easily, who wants to work hard, and the hard mode every game?

However, the grouping has been determined, and there is no room for any changes.

What Arsenal need to do now is to ensure their own state, study the opponent's game style, etc...

But before the Champions League, Arsenal need to meet the league's artillery.

In the third round of the Premier League, Arsenal played away against Liverpool.

In the third round of the league, they ushered in a challenge from a strong enemy.

Liverpool's record in the first two rounds was one win and one draw. They encountered Watford's sniper in the away game and failed to win the first round.

Liverpool obviously failed to find their form in the first round.

This is still the case in the second round. Although they beat Crystal Palace 1:0, the overall state still failed to return to the peak level.

After experiencing the European Cup and America's Cup, the main players are quite tired.

This also made the outside world feel more that Arsenal will win the game.

After all, looking at the first two rounds, Arsenal's performance should be more stable and efficient.

However, Klopp also said before the game that Liverpool has completed the adjustment of the state, and the winger Chen Slow is in a hot state, which will be their most favorable offensive arrow.

No one knows how much water is mixed in Klopp's words, or it may be a smoke bomb released.

After all, Chen Man is not considered a core position in Liverpool's lineup, and Salah is the key to leading this team to victory.

Even in terms of tactical status, Chen Man is even lower than Phelps. In this case, it is difficult to agree with Klopp's words.

But even so, Arsenal need to seriously consider this issue.

At the same time, Liverpool were also studying Arsenal's tactics.

However, facing the sudden change of Arsenal's style of play, it is indeed difficult to adapt.

They tried to use Tottenham's style of play as an introduction point, but found that Arsenal's tactics were slightly different in details, and it was this difference in details that made the whole completely different.

To sum up, Arsenal's center forward retracement and Tottenham's center forward retracement are completely different things.

While the outside world is talking about this game, the game day is getting closer.

On Friday, Arsenal arrived in Liverpool first to conduct training in Liverpool.

On the one hand, it is to adapt to the local atmosphere, and on the other hand, it is to avoid the team's exhaustion on the day of the game.

A day of training and sufficient rest allowed Arsenal to recharge their batteries and be able to better cope with the game.

On August 19, the Arsenal team arrived at the famous Anfield Stadium.

They walked onto the pitch to the cheers of the Arsenal Expedition fans.

The atmosphere has become serious and dignified.

The war is imminent.

"Next is the starting list..."

After Mourinho arranged the tactics, he announced the starting list.

At this moment, Lukaku and Giroud's hearts tightened.

Both looked at Mourinho.

Although Mourinho said that he would give Giroud more opportunities to play and even start.

But with different tactics, they also need to rotate.

"Martinez, Robertson, Hummels, Jimenez..."

The names of the main players appeared without accident, but as the starting list was running low, they became more nervous.

Finally, Mourinho looked up and said; "Giroud!"

Accompanied by Mourinho's voice, Giroud clenched his fists secretly.

Since he joined Arsenal, everything has gone very smoothly.

Whether it is integration or running-in, and the fact that the third game can start, this is undoubtedly very gratifying news.

On the other hand, Lukaku on the other side is a little sad.

But he quickly put on the substitute's vest and followed the coaching staff out of the locker room.

The starting players followed Le Kai to the player channel.

 …

Players from both sides stood on both sides of the player tunnel. There was no communication between the two sides, and there was a smell of gunpowder in the air.

While arranging the captain's armband, Le Kai subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen Man behind him.

Lucky doesn't really believe in the smoke bombs played by Klopp.

Chen Slow's abilities were strong, but he was by no means the core material.

This guy's personality is too reckless, and his state is extremely unstable, unless the head coach has his head pumped, Chen Slow will be the core.

This kind of core will either perform explosively, or directly lead the team into the quagmire.

Klopp is obviously not stupefied, he must have some thoughts in what he said.

But Lucky and Arsenal have been confused.

No one knew what gourd was selling in Krupp's head.

"Ready to play!"

At this moment, the referee Kevin Friend in front turned his head and shouted.

The two captains, Lucky and Henderson, yelled almost at the same time to help their teammates improve their morale.

The two teams went hand in hand.

Liverpool fans gave the home team fierce cheers, while Arsenal were booed all over the place.

Entering the field with boos, especially in a famous stadium like Anfield, the pressure is not ordinary.

But fortunately, Arsenal's lineup is full of experienced players, and there will be no stage fright.

The two sides completed the pre-match ceremony.

The captains on both sides guessed.

Arsenal got the ball first.

"This is the third round of the Premier League in the 8th season. After the two rounds of the league schedule, the third round finally ushered in the highlight. Arsenal challenged Liverpool away. The performance of these two teams in the league has always been impressive. Surprisingly, we also look forward to the wonderful performance of the two teams in this game!"

After Paul Merson finished speaking, Dixon on the side added:

"The two teams know each other very well, so their pace of play will not slow down. Facts have proved that Arsenal have been able to effectively deal with Liverpool's tactical system last season, and this also means that the two teams need to continue. Running and pressing constantly."

"I believe this will be a wonderful battle!"

Liverpool is a team that pays attention to high pressing + defensive counterattack.

When Arsenal deal with Liverpool, they will also use this kind of head-to-head tactics to crush it.

Under the same style of play, the rhythm of the two teams will inevitably become faster.

And who can score first, this may be the turning point of the game.

The players of the two teams are standing in their respective halfs. They are already old rivals, and the two sides are also very familiar with each other.

For this reason they cannot but be nervous.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool know that what follows is a tough battle!

The cheers at the scene became louder.

Soon, the referee Kevin Friend ran out of the middle circle and blew his whistle to officially start the game.

Giroud also kicked off quickly.

At this time, the commentators of all parties are also analyzing the starting lineup.

Liverpool (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Karius.

Defenders: Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Gomez.

Midfielders: Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum.

Forwards: Salah, Firmino, Chen Man.

....

Arsenal (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Martinez.

Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.

Midfielders: Kanter, Wilshere, Lucky.

Forwards: Aubameyang, Giroud, Mane.

Liverpool's main goalkeeper Alisson was injured and Karius came off the bench. This may be a variable.

Arsenal, on the other hand, gave up Lukaku and used Giroud who had just joined.

The existence of these variables also makes this game more full of expectations.

And as the commentator said, once the game started, the two sides frantically strangled together.

The midfield has become the most intense battlefield.

Both sides are fighting fiercely and organizing attacks quickly.

In just five minutes, both sides have already blasted a shot.

Arsenal's shot was slightly above the crossbar, while Liverpool's shot was within the range of the public goal frame. If it weren't for Martinez's hard work, it might have resulted in the loss of the ball.

This attack also shocked Arsenal into a cold sweat.

But the two sides still did not pause at all, and continued to strangle into a ball.
