Liverpool, 16 points.

Manchester City, 16 points.

Manchester United, 16 points.

Arsenal, 15 points.

Chelsea, 12 points.

Tottenham, 11 points.

Such a competitive landscape in the Premier League has made the outside world feel unprecedentedly excited!

Fleet Street even asserted early that this will be the most competitive and brutal season in the history of the Premier League!

Although it is impossible for more than 4 teams to participate in the final championship competition, including the competition for the Champions League seats, it will be the most tragic in the history of the Premier League!

The second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage came as scheduled, and Liverpool sat at home and ushered in the challenge of Shakhtar Donetsk.

Situ Yunbing still rotated in the home game, but gave Mbappe a chance to start.

He will cooperate with Sane and Griezmann to tackle tough problems.

Shakhtar Donetsk unexpectedly defeated Naples at home in the first round of the group stage, which gave them a good start in their fight for qualifying. When they came to Anfield, Shakhtar Donetsk was very conservative and pragmatically wanted to start from here. Take away a draw and be content.

But Liverpool obviously don't intend to make them happy.

In the game, they made full use of the advantages of fast pace, strong confrontation, and repeated impacts from the wing. Liverpool established a huge advantage in the game, but the striker squandered a lot of opportunities. Sane scored a must-have goal. Griezmann It was a penalty kick!
It wasn't until the end of the first half that Liverpool relied on Mbappe to respond to Robertson's cross in the penalty area and sent the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!

The Red Army fans in the stands of Anfield Stadium have fallen into madness!
They chanted Mbappe's name!

This season, Mbappe has reached the peak of his popularity since his debut!

What Situ Yunbing is most satisfied with is Mbappe's court temperament. He never looks flustered and always looks like a ruthless killer!
After the break, Liverpool continued to put pressure on Shakhtar Donetsk in the second half.

Shakhtar Donetsk also began to actively organize the offensive, which made it easier for Liverpool to penetrate their defense.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Sane dribbled wildly from the left to pass the opponent's full-back and then sent the ball straight into the left rib of the penalty area.

Griezmann's diagonal running position took advantage of the situation and sent the ball into the near corner of the goal!
Liverpool leads Shakhtar Donetsk by two goals at home!

Three minutes later, Situ Yunbing replaced Mbappe directly.

He needs Mbappe to continue playing in the weekend league!
Liverpool fans stand up and applaud Mbappe!
Shakhtar Donetsk may not understand Liverpool's style of play this season. They thought that Liverpool's replacement of Mbappe was a clear defensive signal.

But in fact, Liverpool has always maintained a mad attacking rhythm, while Shakhtar Donetsk struggled to launch a counterattack, but was bombarded more violently by Liverpool!

In the 67th minute of the game, Sancho, who came off the bench, sent a direct pass from the wing. Although Griezmann fell in the middle, Sane, who followed up from the back, volleyed the ball after stopping the ball. Blast into the goal!
Liverpool lead by three goals!
Just 6 minutes later, Griezmann broke through the penalty area and was destroyed by the opponent. The football rolled to the rear was directly walked away by Henderson. After completing the pass and cut cooperation with Sane in front of the penalty area, he scored In the penalty area, Henderson grabbed the point and directly pushed the ball into the far corner of the goal!
Liverpool beat Shakhtar Donetsk 4-0 at home!

Shakhtar Donetsk finally realized the horror of the defending champion Liverpool!
They started to defend absolutely, not wanting to be scored by Liverpool again.

Liverpool has made successive substitutions to train young players.

In the end, when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Liverpool won the second round of the Champions League group stage with a score of 4:0.

Top of the group with two undefeated victories.

Situ Yunbing was interviewed proudly after the game. He said that in the past two seasons, there have always been people who criticized Liverpool for taking a perfunctory attitude towards the Champions League group stage. This season, he hopes that the team can use their performance to silence those people!
In another match in the same round, Napoli beat Feyenoord 3-1 at home.

In the next back-to-back games, Liverpool will play against Naples, which will play a decisive role in qualifying for the group.

Liverpool, 6 points.

Shakhtar Donetsk, 3 points.

Naples, 3 points.

Feyenoord, 0 points.

Back in the league at the weekend, Liverpool challenge Newcastle United at St James' Park.

The Red Army is still doing its best, but Liverpool conceded the first goal in the game!
Situ Yunbing noticed the change of Newcastle United's defensive strategy when he supervised the game on the coach's bench.

In the past, many defensive teams would learn Chelsea's style of play, static defense and long pass counterattack, if there is a fast horse on the side, they must go to the side.

However, Newcastle United adopted the frenzied pressing and counter-grabbing tactics in their own half. As long as the ball is successfully intercepted, the striker at the front must move forward quickly. As long as the teammates can pass the ball, it will form a threatening attack. !

This defensive strategy is similar to the defensive tactics adopted by strong teams such as Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal.

It's just that more defensive players are invested, and the counter-grab area is smaller. Basically, it is in their own half. If the opponent controls the ball in the backcourt, then they will wait for the opponent to attack and kill the half-court. They will never waste their energy. Conduct meaningless anti-grabbing harassment in front.

Situ Yunbing secretly said in his heart: The middle and lower reaches of the Premier League are also making progress!
Yes, the reason for this change is the tactical trend represented by Liverpool, followed by Manchester City and Arsenal!
If it's just copying tactics, it's definitely unrealistic, and it will end up like Dongshi imitating himself and screwing up.

But it is quite normal to learn from the characteristics that can be used to upgrade yourself.

Obviously, when this trend becomes mainstream, the Premier League will become more exciting!

Situ Yunbing did not make adjustments after losing the ball. Newcastle United can only say that they have improved their defensive strength and counterattack threat through more reasonable tactics, which does not mean that they can completely suppress Liverpool in the situation.

In fast-paced confrontations, Newcastle United can also make mistakes. In the 34th minute of the game, their fast break after a successful midfield tackle turned out to be a mistake because they wanted to play the ball quickly. Kante's key interception won Liverpool. A better chance for a quick break.

Eriksson cleverly missed the ball when responding in the frontcourt. Lewandowski and Gareth Bale hit the wall and then turned around and entered the penalty area. He kicked the ball and hit the goal!
Liverpool equalized!
Situ Yunbing looked indifferent, and he was not surprised that the team tied the score.

After all, the Premier League has a deep-rooted drawback.

That is, there is no concept of rhythm control at all!

Now the entire Premier League can steadily control the rhythm without causing chaos. I am afraid that the only teams that do not play off are Liverpool and Manchester City, and even Arsenal may not be able to do it.

However, due to the fast-paced influence of other teams over the past 20 years, it is easy to get ahead of the fast and fierce confrontation in the game!

Even if Newcastle United has a better tactical play to face Liverpool, but if they pursue speed, they will often make the turnover rate higher!

Of course, they may not care about offensive mistakes, as long as they make one or two opportunities to seize opportunities, they will be satisfied.

On the contrary, they are pursuing rhythm control at a higher level, and they don't have enough suitable players.

Many coaches hoped to do this before, but they ended up with a shattered end.

Everton's Martinez, Lautrup who drove high and low in Swansea, including former Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger, did the same.

When Newcastle United was equalized, their overall defensive tightness began to decline because of the emotional and mentality changes!
Liverpool, on the other hand, has consistently adopted a stance of overwhelming attack and bombarded them indiscriminately.

Before the end of the first half, Robertson's cross from the wing found Mbappe at the back of the penalty area, who jumped high and scored with a header!
When Mbappe scored, he rushed to the sidelines with a surprised smile, and drew the number 7 to the camera.

This is his seven consecutive Premier League goals since the new season!

The limelight is strong, unrivaled!
Liverpool walked into the locker room with a 2:1 lead, and returned to the field in the second half after the intermission. Newcastle United may have exploded because they were fighting at home and the score was overtaken. They actually adopted a more proactive approach. Full-court pressing tactics!
Situ Yunbing is not surprised by this. The emotional problems of the Premier League team are deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Those who criticize the lack of technical and tactical gold content in the Premier League are actually very reasonable.

In most cases, the only way for the lagging team to take is to speed up the offense and defense, add troops to the frontcourt, and adopt a long pass style of play.

Other than that, there are no more subtle and in-depth changes.

Newcastle United's initiative was just digging holes for themselves.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Liverpool used a wave of fast breaks, and Arnold sent a diagonal pass from the front side to find Gareth Bale, who quickly advanced to counter-offside and cut inside. The latter was in the penalty area after stopping the ball A lob shot sent the ball into the far corner of the goal!
Disappointed home fans in the stands at St James' Park!

The glory brought by defeating Liverpool was briefly imagined, but it finally came to naught.
