Chapter 243 What's wrong with Liverpool?
On August 8, the last game of the second round of the 22-2017 Premier League season, Liverpool played against Crystal Palace at home.

Crystal Palace only spent 3200 million in this summer window.

A sum of 800 million introduced central defender Riedwald from Ajax.

It cost 2400 million to buy Sakho, who could not make it into Klopp's squad, from Liverpool.

Then, after loaning goalkeeper Mensah and midfielder Chike from Manchester United and Chelsea, they completely ended the season signings.

The English media has always used the club's actions in the transfer market to speculate on the club's goals this season.

The goal of Crystal Palace is very clear, which is to continue to relegation, stop dreaming about others, and maintain the healthy operation of the club.

In the first round of the new season, Crystal Palace was directly poured 3 goals against the newly promoted Huddersfield, which can be said to be a disastrous defeat.

Facing such a team, all the media and fans believe that Liverpool can definitely win easily.

But the result was beyond everyone's expectations, making countless people clearly aware of how sluggish the Red Army has been this season.

In the first minute of the game, Liverpool, who had not yet fully entered the state, was intercepted by the winger Van Aanholt of the Water Golden Palace, and then made a pass along the sidewalk, and Benteke directly gave the ball in the penalty area. Headed into the Liverpool gate, creating the fastest scoring record of the season.

Benteke's goal of killing the former owner also set the tone for Liverpool's inability to win at home.

In the 15 minutes of the game, Mo Yang saw that the Crystal Palace's formation was a bit overwhelming and directly made a long pass to Salah.

But this buddy didn't seem to wake up, he didn't react at all, he didn't run a step, he stood there and watched the ball being cleared by the Crystal Palace defender.

Seeing this extremely rare scene, the fans booed continuously.

They can no longer bear such a downturn in the team.

This time, it was a complete tragedy to boo Liverpool. Even Mo Yang was affected, and there was a rare pass error.

This scene made Klopp extremely speechless on the sidelines.

In the second half, Liverpool's state recovered. Mo Yang sent another wonderful assist in the 75th minute of the game.

This time he directly approached Ibrahimovic, and it turned out that God is always reliable!
Relying on his excellent confrontation ability, Ibrahimovic directly leaned against the Crystal Palace defender Dann, his embroidered feet picked up the ball directly, and then volleyed sideways to hit the goal.

The goal was extremely beautiful, a typical Ibrahimovic goal, which helped Liverpool regain the score.

But just when everyone thought the game would end with a score of 1-1, Liverpool made trouble again.

This time it was Captain Henderson.

In the last minute of stoppage time, perhaps due to the end of the game, Henderson began to lose concentration.

He didn't pay attention to Crystal Palace's new aid midfielder Cheek approaching from the left blind spot, and was directly robbed of the ball at his feet.

After Chick got the ball, he directly organized a frontcourt counterattack and handed the ball to Benteke again.

Benteke took the ball at the top of the arc and acted as a fulcrum. After Crystal Palace's right forward Townsend rushed into the penalty area, he directly picked the ball in front of Townsend.

If Van Dijk is on the field, this kind of ball is not threatening, and there is a high probability that he will clear it.

It's a pity that Van Dijk was replaced by Klavan in the 80th minute of the game because of a sprained ankle.

Although Klavan was in the penalty area, but the game time was coming to an end, this guy was a little distracted, and the start was slow, allowing Townsend to take the lead.

Helpless, Klavan had no choice but to make a move, and pulled Townsend down covertly.

But the referee still saw his little action and directly awarded Crystal Palace a winning penalty.

Benteke took the penalty himself, hit the target again and scored twice.

Liverpool was beaten by Crystal Palace in the countdown.

After the game, Mo Yang went back to the locker room, didn't say anything, ignored anyone after washing up, and went home directly, showing his dissatisfaction to the fullest.

Klopp was even worse. He didn't even attend the press conference after the game and went home directly, leaving all the work to Pete.

"Terrible Liverpool, the sluggish striker is the main culprit for Liverpool losing two consecutive championships this season and one draw and one loss in the league!" - The Times

"What's going on with Chelsea and Liverpool? Why are the two giants, who were so strong last season, so sluggish this season. "--Guardian.

The Guardian's report has both Chelsea and Liverpool fans thinking.

In the first round of the Chelsea League this season, they were beaten 3-2 by Wolves, who were almost relegated last season. The whole game was almost suppressed, which was even more abnormal than Liverpool, as if cursed.

"Perhaps Liverpool has encountered a mysterious virus. This virus is spreading secretly in the Liverpool team. It has already begun to affect the players in Liverpool's midfield and defense. Yang's state in this game is not good. He appeared twice. Bad pass! - Daily Mail

When the Daily Mail said this, countless fans suddenly thought about it and felt that it really seemed to be the same thing.

In the warm-up match, although Liverpool's state was sluggish, it was not to the current level.

At that time, only the front line was in a sluggish state, but in these two games, it was obvious that the midfield and defense were also affected.

"The poor state of Liverpool and Chelsea is in stark contrast to the excellent state of Manchester City. Judging from the last two games, the mighty Manchester City has shown itself as a champion!" " - The Sun.

"The team's downturn has always been the life and death enemy of every club. An excellent head coach should have a way to help players adjust their status. Klopp may be thinking of a way! "—Mirror.

"I have a way!" Klopp, who works at Melwood, read the report the next day, and he swears directly.

Klopp regretted a little at this time. He had underestimated the severity of the team's downturn.

He always thought that Salah and the others just haven't regained the feeling of shooting. As long as Mo Yang feeds them slowly, the feeling of scoring goals will return sooner or later.

But he never expected that the slump during the warm-up match was not a trough at all, nor was it the end, but the beginning of falling into the abyss, so it was the starting point.

Now even Mo Yang is affected, which really makes him very headache.

On August 8, they will go to Manchester to play against Manchester City, which has shown extremely terrifying attack power this season.

After Manchester City's super-large-scale cleaning and large-scale signings in the summer transfer window, in these two rounds of the league, it can be said that the powerful power of Jinyuan football has been fully demonstrated.

In the two league games, Manchester City scored 10 goals, all of which kept their opponents clean, which shows that Manchester City has undergone a transformation this season.

Klopp has watched these two games of Manchester City, and he knows very well that this Manchester City team is the real strength of the bald man.

Now this Manchester City has no shortcomings at all, and has been completely integrated into Guardiola's dog-walking pass control system. The Spaniard has begun to show his sharp fangs to the Premier League.

In Klopp's eyes, Guardiola has always been his biggest opponent in the Premier League.

The thought of fighting Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in this sluggish form gives Klopp a toothache.

But now the most important thing is not to win or lose this game, but to adjust the mental state of the players as soon as possible.

As for how to adjust the player's state, Klopp is not helpless.

I hope his approach will be effective, otherwise the game against Manchester City in a few days will definitely be a disaster, and Klopp has already had a vague premonition.

　Ask for some tickets! ! ! !Happy Spring Festival!
