tenth

Benitez is in very bad shape now and is under a lot of pressure. At this time, Qiu Ze stood up and spoke for Benitez: "I think Rafael's rotation plan is very good. This will not only allow more players to

Players have the opportunity to play, and it also allows Liverpool to have more available players. This is a good thing for Liverpool, because Liverpool has a lot of games this season, and I don’t think anyone can be full attendance.

The rotation is good.”

Qiu Ze also said: "My own state has no conflict with this rotation plan and has nothing to do with Benitez's rotation plan. I am in such a bad state because I am not feeling well. I sincerely apologize for this.

I apologize to the Liverpool fans, it was my fault."

Qiu Ze's words relieved the pressure on Benitez, otherwise Benitez would have been crushed by the pressure.

Another very important game in this round is the Manchester Derby. The Manchester duo brought everyone a thrilling game. Manchester United relied on an own goal from Manchester City at the last moment to score 4-3.

A thrilling victory over Manchester City.

Liverpool's opponent Chelsea continued to put pressure on Liverpool in this round. They defeated their opponent 3-0 at their home court. Now Chelsea and Liverpool are infinitely close. The two teams have the same points, only in terms of goal difference.

The gap is very small, and one game is enough to change the final result.

By this time, the competition between the two teams for the top spot in the Premier League has become fierce. All the fans at the scene are paying attention to the two teams at this time. The two teams are now competing, and both teams have won

Winning six games in a row.

At this time, both teams are holding back their energy, hoping to throw away their opponents in the next game and occupy the top spot of the Premier League alone. They never want to be so close to their opponents again, as if they will be in the next moment.

It's like being swallowed up by your opponent, which is very dangerous.

In the seventh round of the league, Liverpool will return to their home court and face Hull City. This game is a relatively late game in this round. The first game in this round is Manchester United's away game against Hull City.

In Tok City's match, they defeated their opponents 2-0 away from home.

Then there was the match against Chelsea, Liverpool's rival, when they faced Wigan Athletic away from home. The Chelsea people withstood the pressure. They defeated their opponents 3-1 on the road and continued their winning streak, threatening Liverpool.

By this time, the pressure on the Liverpool team is very high. At this time, they cannot make any mistakes. If they make a mistake, the top spot in the league will fall to Chelsea. In this game, Liverpool

The players on the team are holding back their energy.

At the beginning of the game, Liverpool turned pressure into motivation. Qiu Ze, who had no form in the previous round, was in surprisingly good form in this game. At the beginning of the first half, he was three meters away from the goal.

A long shot from fifteen meters away, the football flew into the Hull City goal like a meteor falling from the night sky.

This made the Liverpool fans excited. The omnipotent Chris was back again, and the entire Anfield stadium was in a state of excitement.

This is not over yet. In the 19th minute of the first half, Qiu Ze once again showed off his power. After breaking through three people in the frontcourt, he scored a goal and scored a goal with a powerful shot.

Liverpool leads 2-0.

In the 24th minute of the first half, after Qiu Ze received a cross from the wing in the penalty area, he made a diving dive and pushed the football into the Hull City goal, making it 3-0.

In this game, Qiu Ze's state was really at its peak. Less than thirty minutes into the first half, Qiu Ze scored a hat trick. This guy really made up for his previous state.

Much to the excitement of Liverpool fans.

Before the second half of the game started, Benitez replaced Qiu Ze, Gerrard and Fernando Torres, because Liverpool will have another double match the next week, and their opponents are Fiorentina and Chelsea.

.

Therefore, at this time, the Liverpool team must prepare for the next week's game. At this time, the Liverpool team has won this game and does not need to spend too much energy on this game. Therefore, Qiu Ze and others

People were replaced.

After Qiu Ze and others were replaced, Liverpool's offense still did not stop. At the beginning of the second half, Arshavin broke through alone and broke through Hull City's goal with a push shot, making it 4-0.

Then, after Glen Johnson and Arshavin cooperated again on the wing, Glen Johnson sent a cross. Huntelaar, who rushed up at high speed from the center, used his chest to block the football into the Hull City goal.

Liverpool leads 5-0.

After taking a five-goal lead, Liverpool relaxed a little, which allowed Hull City to seize the opportunity. The opponent used a quick counterattack to score a goal and saved some face. However, before the end of the game, Hull City let Liverpool

The team's Maxi Rodriguez took a shot, and this guy succeeded in a long shot.

In the end, Liverpool defeated Hull City 6-1 at home. This not only withstood the pressure, but also widened the gap between them and Chelsea. In this round of games, they had more

Chelsea have a three goal difference.

In this round of games, Arsenal defeated Fulham with a goal away from home and continued to move towards the first group.

At the end of seven rounds of games, Liverpool now has 21 points from seven rounds, temporarily leading Chelsea with a goal difference, ranking first in the Premier League. Chelsea ranks second. Manchester United ranks third with 18 points.

Third, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City all have fifteen points, split four to six places.

By this time, the gap between teams such as Liverpool and Arsenal has begun to widen. They are now more than six points ahead of Arsenal. This league has only started seven rounds, and Liverpool and Chelsea

The strength is evident.

Everyone expected that Liverpool could perform like this, because Liverpool's strength has been very good in the past few seasons, and this season they have generally retained the team from previous seasons, and there are also strong supplements.

, they should behave like this.

However, Chelsea's performance surprised everyone. Chelsea didn't spend much money on signings this season. They only brought in Ivanovic, which cost him 18 million, and they didn't spend much on signings.

.

Moreover, they also changed coaches this season. I didn't expect that they would have such an amazing performance. This was simply beyond everyone's expectations.

At this time, Chelsea's chairman, the Russian tycoon Abramovich, was very happy. It seems that he did a very right thing this time. He introduced Carno Ancelotti, this guy

The results of leading the team are good.

In the league, he actually achieved seven consecutive victories. This is something Abramovich did not expect. It is really good and great. Moreover, in the League Cup, Chelsea also performed very well in the first round. Through

Yes, advance to the next round.

Yes, before this round of games, England's League Cup this season has already reached the round of joining the Premier League teams. In this round of games, Liverpool naturally also used a rotation lineup. Their opponents were once

A strong Premier League team, Leeds United, known as the Young Guards.

However, the current Leeds United is no longer the Leeds United of the past. Liverpool's rotation easily defeated the opponent with a score of 1 to 0 and advanced to the next round.

Now, what Liverpool have to think about is the next Champions League and the weekend's top-of-the-table battle against Chelsea.

In this round of the UEFA Champions League, Liverpool will go away to challenge Fiorentina in Italy. Fiorentina is a strong team in Serie A, and their strength cannot be underestimated. At this time, Liverpool's head coach Bennett

Si Ke is in trouble.

Should Liverpool go all out to kill Fiorentina in the middle of the week, or should they save their energy to deal with Chelsea on the weekend and completely defeat Chelsea? Yes, at this time, Liverpool's head coach Benitez is in some trouble.

.

In this week, Chelsea naturally also has the task of the UEFA Champions League, and they will also go to the away game. However, their opponent APOEL is not very strong, and Chelsea will definitely save their efforts for the weekend's league battle.

ah.

At this time, Benitez began to have difficulties. After thinking about it for a long time, Benitez decided to compete in both games. Of course, he should save a little bit of effort against Fiorentina. After all, this is an away game and there are already many games.

Due to uncertain factors, they may not win even if they attack with all their strength. After all, they are going to Italy.

Therefore, at this time, Benitez's heart was involuntarily biased toward the weekend's league match with Chelsea. In Benitez's view, qualifying from the UEFA Champions League group stage only requires twelve points, so

, giving up one or two games is also feasible.

Of course, at this time, he did not give up the game with Fiorentina. They also wanted to compete for victory. It was just at this time that Benitez put Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres on the bench.

At the beginning of the game, Liverpool's performance was not at a disadvantage, and they even had an advantage, which reassured Benitez a lot. It seems that even the remaining Liverpool team can defeat Florence. It seems that he has been able to defeat Florence before.

It's too much.

However, the game suddenly changed twenty minutes into the first half. Fiorentina scored two goals in the next three minutes, leading Liverpool 2-0. This made Benitez think

He was stunned. He never thought that the game would end up like this. He was stunned.

The fans of the Liverpool team who came with the team to the away game were also stunned by this result. Really, they did not expect that Florence would be so amazing. They used two quick counterattacks to break through the Liverpool goal.

Liverpool were two goals behind and were stunned.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Benitez immediately replaced Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres. It can be seen that Benitez still wanted to win this game. However, after Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres came on the field, despite their performance

He worked very hard and was in good condition, but unfortunately his Liverpool teammates failed to do their best. In the end, Liverpool suffered a defeat in Florence and ushered in their first defeat of the new season.

Benitez felt very uncomfortable losing this game. Really, he never thought he would lose to Fiorentina. Now, if Liverpool cannot win the game on the weekend, he will not be able to express his gratitude to Liverpool.

The fans of the team confessed.

In the other game of this round, Lyon was unceremonious in the away game, beating Hungary's Debrecen team 4-0, ranking first in the group with a record of two wins, while Fiorentina ranked first with a goal difference advantage.

Second in the group, Liverpool ranked third, and Debrecen, the point-delivering boy who lost both rounds, ranked at the bottom of the group.

After two rounds, Liverpool was ranked third, which no one had thought of before. There was a sharp contrast between Liverpool's performance in Europe and their performance in the league, which made many people unable to understand who Liverpool was.

What's going on?

At this time, Benitez no longer has the energy to think about this. He has already started thinking about the weekend's game against Chelsea.
