This Premier League first game ended in a 2-2 draw.
Thanks to Henderson's early penetration at the end of the game, Liverpool successfully equalized the score.
Arsenal did not seize the opportunity to lead at home, first he scored two goals in a row, completed the reversal, and then was stubbornly equalized by Liverpool.
After this game, for the giants behind the two teams, the draw each took one point, so that neither of them was completely thrown away by the top two, and they still have greater hope of hitting the championship.
However, Liverpool's dissatisfaction on both offensive and defensive ends in this game also exposed the fact that Liverpool lacked a reserve of orthodox full-backs.
For Flanagan or Sissoko, they are still very young in the position of full-back, and perhaps they are capable of offensive and defensive work of full-backs when they are usually against some ordinary teams.
However, when facing the top Premier League teams, the two still have many shortcomings to be resolved.
Unable to guarantee stable and outstanding performance is the biggest problem for the two now.
At least so far, the two have not been able to achieve the strength of Jose Enrique and Glen Johnson.
However, the offensive firepower of Liverpool's striker, as well as the continuous outstanding performance of defensive players Yang Feng and Mignolet, have also made such a Liverpool, not considered the best team, still have the overall support of the strength of the best team in the Premier League. .
After a slightly difficult draw with Arsenal in the away game, the Liverpool players can only return home to rest for two days before flying to Germany to prepare for the away game against Dortmund.
It has to be said that this Champions League group stage, so far, the points situation is simple but still full of suspense.
Marseille turned out to be the "cash machine" in the group. When this group draw was completed, it was regarded as the most balanced group. However, Marseille was unable to form a real competitiveness due to its severe blood loss at the beginning of the season.
In the first three rounds of the group stage, Marseille was abused round by round and lost three times. Not to mention the early exit, even the third place in the group stage and the qualification to compete in the Europa League knockouts are almost gone.
As for Liverpool's group rivals, Naples and Dortmund, they really show what a team with similar strength is.
Dortmund defeated Liverpool, Liverpool beat Naples, and Naples defeated Dortmund.
After three rounds, the three teams scored 6 points together, and the situation of the group qualifying is still quite unclear.
In terms of schedule factors, Liverpool must be at the disadvantage.
Because the previous victory over Naples and the loss to Dortmund were played at Liverpool's own home stadium, Anfield Stadium.
This is also unexpected. In the next two key group matches, Liverpool can only go to the away game and go to the game amidst the cheering and cheering of the opponent fans.
Pack up and fly to Germany.
In the away game against Dortmund, the first thing Liverpool must worry about is Dortmund's home court advantage.
West Stadium is definitely one of the most terrifying home stadiums in Europe.
The stadium can accommodate a total of 83,000 people. The average number of viewers in the Bundesliga is more than 77,000. This is one of the reasons why Dortmund has been able to compete in the Bundesliga in recent years. Behind them, there is a very large fan base to support them.
Any team that comes to West Stadium as a guest will have to play under the noise of nearly 80,000 people and face the yellow-black "dancing" that is full of color and impact. To face it, as soon as you are at home, you can let go of your hands and feet and play the smooth offensive cooperation of Dort. For any team, it is not easy to find good fruit here.
In the Champions League, Dortmund has gradually grown into Europe's top power in recent years.
Especially at home, they reversed the lore to beat Málaga, beat Real Madrid by a big score, at the West Stadium, they are fearless against any team and will strive for victory.
This game, for Liverpool, who wants to win and occupy the initiative to compete for the Champions League, it is absolutely impossible to lose.
Unlike the last Champions League game, Liverpool is still a little bit clumsy. In this game, Liverpool is definitely the main player.
And because of Coutinho's return from injury, in this game, Rogers let Coutinho start and put Sterling on the bench to wait for an opportunity.
The formation of 433 remains unchanged. Put Coutinho in the front of the midfield to strengthen the team’s offense, and then put Henderson on the right, which can not only do a good job of passing the ball, but also rely on Henry. Desen's exchange of visits made Liverpool's overall defense still maintain a certain level.
It’s just that Jose Enrique’s injury still needs a long rest. After thinking about it, Rogers chose to send Flanagan to play. Even if his opponent is Dort, Rogers also wants to "pull the seed to help." Lanagan can mature quickly.
In the previous injury check, Jose Enrique’s injury was more serious than expected and he had to undergo surgery for his knee injury. His return time will be in March next year.
In this period of time, especially before the start of the winter window, Liverpool can only dig inside the team to see if there is a player who can beat any position of Sai Enrique.
Both Sissoko and Flanagan ~EbookFREE.me~ can play the position of left back.
Not enough. Although Flanagan debuted at the right back, playing the left back has some problems with inverted feet, but the good performance in the second half of the last game against Arsenal still made Rogers want to train this Liverpool's own child. Become a talent.
For England fans, they are tolerant, even if the "United Nations" is on the field, they will cheer for the team.
But they are also traditional. On the basis of not affecting the strength of the team, they still want to have more local players and team youth training players participating in the team to prove the local players and the team youth training. The standard is not bad either.
And Flanagan is not only a native English player, but a Liverpool youth player, and even like Gerrard, Flanagan is a Liverpool native, a true Liverpool "child".
For Flanagan’s training, it is not just about cultivating a player, but also building a name card for the Liverpool team. Therefore, in the competition between Flanagan and Sissoko, Flanagan, who performed well, Coupled with the support of the management and the support of the fans, Flanagan is in the position as it should be.
Professional football sometimes needs opportunities. Only opportunities can get to the top.
For Flanagan, Jose Enrique’s injury, his family’s influence, and his own hard training, fighting spirit, combined together, made him the favor of Rogers, as long as he can behave well. , You can gain a foothold in Liverpool and take the biggest step of your career.
And this football player did not play well, he had to go home and inherited hundreds of millions of wealthy second-generation players, but still on the field, working hard to prove himself, to prove that his strength can be qualified as a starter in Liverpool position.
