Chapter 648 Unexpected
Liverpool has rarely conceded goals against weak teams this season, and has not yet tasted defeat in the league so far.
Judging from the situation of the past two seasons, the Liverpool team that once continuously "rescued the fellows who were about to be relegated" no longer exists.
But this does not mean that the current Liverpool team is invincible. On the contrary, Liverpool's strong rise has given many teams a feeling of sharing the same hatred.
The idea of breaking Liverpool's unbeaten streak and ending Liverpool's winning streak is now the common goal of all Premier League teams.
Although there is no hope for the Premier League championship, many Premier League coaches and players have said that it is too early to talk about the ownership of the championship. There are still seventeen rounds in the league and everything is still unknown. Never give up until the end!
Among the people who said this, there are many mid- and lower-tier teams in the Premier League. After all, they have no hope of competing for the championship. But if they can get points from Liverpool, there is no doubt that it will definitely boost the morale of the army and give an explanation to the fans.
Brighton is one of the teams with this mentality. In this game, they were trying to steal points from Liverpool, because they got good news before the game even started.
There is something wrong with Liverpool's defense. Neither Gomez nor Matip will appear in the starting lineup for this game. Together with the injured Lovren, Liverpool's central defender has no one else except Van Dijk. .
Brighton head coach Hughes was ecstatic after receiving the exact news. As a result, Liverpool is most likely to let Milner, the vice-captain of Tiger Balm, play as a central defender. Even if Milner is not paired with Van Dijk, it will only be the central defender. Guest appearances by field staff.
If Milner is the defender, the height of Liverpool's defense will be further lowered, and Brighton's offensive methods in this game will be able to use more high balls.
If it's not Milner, then it must be captain Henderson or Fabinho, because Liverpool's current midfield is the only two midfielders with height advantages and game experience.
As for the other two players in the Liverpool team, Ocho and Marco, who are over 1.8 meters tall, I believe that with Klopp’s coaching style, he will definitely not trust the defensive center back to such two players who have been separated for a long time. .
Whether it is Henderson or Fabinho, there will definitely be unfamiliarity issues in their cooperation with Van Dijk, so focusing on attacking this line during the game will definitely yield miraculous results.
When he thought of this, Hughes couldn't help but get excited, so when he saw Liverpool's starting list, he noticed the names of Henderson and Fabinho, while Liverpool's defense only had Arnold, Van Dijk and Robertson. After these three familiar names, he became even more excited.
God-given opportunity, everything is under control, today's game is stable, even if we can't beat Liverpool, we can draw with our opponent at home, it shouldn't be a big problem!
Once you grab a point from Liverpool, that point is comparable to three points, enough for Brighton to boast for a season!
Hughes, who was dreaming, felt extremely relaxed after seeing the Liverpool players take the field, but while waiting for kick-off, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
What the hell? Why is Li Qing in that position?
On the court, Liverpool's midfielder, Henderson, Wijnaldum and Fabinho lined up, in front of them was the trident composed of Mane, Firmino and Shaqiri.
In the backcourt, the goalkeeper is still Alisson, but today, in addition to Robertson, Arnold and Van Dijk, standing in front of Alisson is another person who surprised everyone, it is Li Qing!
Li Qing and Van Dijk partner as central defenders?
Fans at the scene also noticed this unusual scene. Many people even thought that Li Qing was in the wrong position with the midfielder. After all, Li Qing had always played in the midfield before.
But when the referee blew the whistle, Li Qing still stood in the backcourt, and the American Express Community Stadium stands were in an uproar.
Are you kidding me? Li Qing was playing as a defender, Klopp's mind was blocked by the door, and he actually made such a stupid move?
In the Sky Sports live broadcast room, Andy Gray exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Oh... Is Klopp's self-confidence too inflated? Does he think the genius Li is omnipotent?"
Martin Taylor immediately responded: "I admit that the genius Li's strength is unmatched by anyone in the Premier League, but that is only limited to the frontcourt. I think Klopp's arrangement for Li today is very inappropriate! "
Lineker, a BBC commentator and a loyal fan of Li Qing, criticized mercilessly: "Klopp is really out of his mind. Does he want to end his 20s in such a clumsy way?" How could Li be in that position!"
China Sports Channel 5 He Wei also looked puzzled, "Our rock coach is a little bit off today. This starting lineup is really confusing. Is it really appropriate for Li Qing to be placed in that position?" "
"Liverpool has no defenders anymore?" Zhang Lu said bluntly, "Then why did Klein have to be loaned out before? And didn't Gomez and Matip just play in the League Cup? Are they injured again? "
Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun frowned, "Although Brighton is a weak team in the Premier League, they are not easy to bully. Manchester United has suffered a big loss from them this season. It seems that Klopp I didn’t take it to heart!”
Almost no commentator thinks that Li Qing is a good choice for the central defender position. Although Li Qing has shown strong interception ability and superb passing and receiving ability in past games, this does not mean that Li Qing is a good choice. Explain what.
In particular, Li Qing is still the top scorer in the Premier League and is also the sharpest knife in the Liverpool team. When Klopp placed him in such a position, many people were puzzled and deeply angered.
Brighton's players and coaches are the first to bear the brunt. As today's opponent, Brighton, playing at home, is full of energy and wants to compete with Liverpool, especially their defense. They want to compete with Li Qing, the top scorer. Have a good fight.
Brighton lost to Liverpool by four goals at Anfield last year. At that time, Li Qing scored one goal and assisted two times. He was the biggest contributor to the victory over Brighton.
So when they fight again this year, Brighton hopes to avenge their shame, but they didn't expect that their most powerful enemy in the previous game would be placed on the back line, which made Brighton's players furious.
Is it possible that you, Li Qing, really think that you are a genius and can do anything in any position?
In today's game, he didn't even play in the frontcourt, but moved to the back line. What does this mean? Are you looking down on us?
