On August 8, the 2015/16 Premier League opener officially kicked off at Old Trafford.
Manchester United vs. Tottenham, this opener can be considered very interesting.
In the end, relying on an own goal from their opponents, Manchester United won Tottenham 1-0 at home, and Stevens also had a good start in the Premier League.
On August 9th, Liverpool also ushered in their new season opener, going away to challenge Potters Stoke City.
In the final game of last season, Liverpool played a fierce game away with Stoke City. Liverpool once fell behind by three goals and finally tied with the opponent 4:4.
Although that game was irrelevant to both teams, the result was still very topical.
Therefore, in this year's opener, Liverpool met Stoke again.
This time in the away game, Klopp arranged his adjusted Liverpool lineup.
Goalkeeper: Mignole;
Defenders: Moreno, Scott, Gomez, Klein;
Midfielder: Henderson, Firmino, Emre Can;
Forwards: Mane, Jackie Lee, Coutinho.
Such a lineup is still very different from last season.
Gomez was a young kid, just turned 18, and was promoted by Klopp to play the main role.
But in general, if he didn't perform particularly well, he would probably still rotate with Lovren.
It’s not too surprising that Klein played as the main force, because Liverpool did not have a qualified main right back last season. In the second half of the season, Emre Jan played guest appearances for a long time.
In midfield, Firmino was brought in at a high price, so it is normal to play the main force.
In addition, Fimi was originally a midfielder, and has always been the core of the team in Huo Village, so it is normal to switch to Liverpool to play in the midfield.
The trident on the front line is a normal combination, that is, Mane intends to replace Sterling.
Before the game started, Li Chenglong was very confident in the interview before the game.
"Our goal for the new season is undoubtedly the Premier League champion."
"In the League of Legends era, Liverpool won 18 league titles and 4 Champions League titles, but after entering the Premier League era, Liverpool has two Champions League titles, but the number of Premier League titles is still zero. This is against a giant team like Liverpool. That is absolutely unreasonable."
"So, my goal is to help Liverpool break this unreasonableness and make everything reasonable."
Although many media know that Liverpool’s goal for the new season is the Premier League championship.
But now that Li Chenglong comes out to talk in person, it still makes them very happy.
They have already remembered it in their small books. When the season is over, if Liverpool fail to win the championship, they will have to turn the old accounts and speculate on the news.
At the Britannia Stadium in Stoke, Liverpool played well.
Although Klopp has not been able to fully promote his football philosophy to everyone, but the basic prototype is still there.
Liverpool's crazy pressing made Stoke City very uncomfortable. Only 16 minutes into the game, Mane intercepted the ball in the frontcourt and assisted Coutinho to complete the goal.
But due to the lack of overall coordination of the whole team, Liverpool has always been in a good position without scoring, and on two occasions, the opponents threatened to counterattack because they were too aggressive.
But fortunately, the final result of the game was good. Liverpool relied on Coutinho's goal and successfully won the game 1-0 and won the first victory of the new season.
In the first round of the Premier League this season, there were two upsets directly.
One is that defending champion Chelsea drew with Swansea 2:2 at home, but failed to score three points.
The second is Arsenal, they are even worse, they lost to the Hammers 0:2 at home.
The two teams that participated in the Community Shield Cup ended up upset in the first round of the league.
※※※
After winning the first round of the Premier League, Liverpool did not have much time to rest.
Klopp has to hurry up to run his team and implement his own tactics. The next week will be the European Super Cup match day.
The European Super Cup is the annual Champions League champion against the UEFA Champions League. The two teams decide the champion of the championship.
The previous Super Cup was arranged before the start of the UEFA Champions League group stage draw. However, in the last two years, in order to promote the influence of the European War games, UEFA began to advance the Super Cup match day, and the venue of the game was also changed from before. Monaco, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, has been transformed into European countries, which are basically countries with weak overall football strength.
The European Super Cup of the previous two years was arranged in the Czech Republic and Wales.
And this year's European Super Cup, the venue is Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.
Last season, Jackie Lee won the Champions League at Schalke 04, so he had the opportunity to participate in the European Super Cup.
But because he moved to Liverpool, he missed that opportunity.
So this year, it will be the first time that Jackie Lee has participated in the European Super Cup in his career.
Although the gold content of the European Super Cup is not high, it is still very good to win the championship, and it can add another type of trophy to your honor.
In addition, Jackie Lee wants to compete for this year's Golden Globe Award, UU reading www.uukanshu.com then he needs to win as many championships as possible and score more goals.
You must know that Li Chenglong has the title of king of the finals. If you lose the top hat of the king of the finals at this time, it will definitely have a big impact.
But Liverpool’s opponent in the final is not easy to deal with, Sevilla, the king of the Europa League.
Before the rise of Sevilla, the teams that won the Europa League the most were Liverpool, Juventus and Inter Milan. These three teams have won the Europa League three times in team history.
But in recent years, with the rise of Sevilla, they have won the Europa League for two consecutive seasons in the 05/06 season and the 06/07 season, and then completed two consecutive seasons in the 13/14 season and 14/15 season. Champions, with a total of four UEFA Cup wins, it has become the team with the most UEFA Cup wins and was named the king of the UEFA Cup.
And Sevilla's strength is indeed not weak. In the 2006 European Super Cup, they beat the Champions League champion Barcelona 3-0. Then in the European Super Cup last year, Sevilla defeated the Shinco Champions League champion. Schalke 04.
Now this time, Liverpool dare not say that they can win the opponent.
At the same time, this is also an opportunity for Li Chenglong to avenge his old club.
After all, last season's European Super Cup, Sevilla stepped on Schalke 04 to win.
On August 10th, the Liverpool team set off from England and flew to Georgia in Eastern Europe.
Liverpool fans once again send off the team at the airport, looking forward to the club’s championship wall with another championship trophy.
At the same time, this is also the first time Liverpool will participate in the European Super Cup after ten years.
