Chapter 85 Don't be cowardly, just do it!
The second round of this season's red derby is coming.

Ancelotti has been preparing for this game early. For Manchester United fans, the importance of this game is self-evident.

Why not Liverpool.

For Liverpool today, there is definitely no hope of winning the championship this season, so for Liverpool people, there are only two goals left for this season-one is to be able to reach the Champions League, and the other... .. is to beat Manchester United at home to avenge the disastrous away defeat in the first round of this season.

These two goals are actually not so easy to accomplish.Now Liverpool only scored 31 points, nine points behind fourth-ranked Manchester City!
The nine-point difference is not easy to catch up, but there is still some hope, and for Liverpool, they have another front that allows them to compete for the qualification for the Champions League-that is, the Europa League.However, there are strong enemies such as Sevilla and Dortmund in the Europa League this season. The difficulty for Liverpool to break through the Europa League is actually not much less than competing for fourth place in the league.

Especially Liverpool's recent state is not good. After the coaching change, Klopp took over Liverpool's coach, but the coaching change did not have a good effect. It has been [-] days since Klopp took office. The Liverpool under the spell have capsized in the gutter, losing [-]-[-] to Newcastle and [-]-[-] to Watford. They have only won two games in the last eight rounds of the league and scored eight points.

However, under Klopp's rule, Liverpool's strong dialogue results are quite good.Whenever Klopp's team encounters a strong team, it can always burst out with huge energy.This season, Liverpool have won against Chelsea and Manchester City by a large score. In the last round against Arsenal, Liverpool even fell behind by one to three and played one player less. They scored two goals in the last 10 minutes of the game, three Arsenal drew with three.

Klopp's team has a very good record when facing strong teams.

However, for Liverpool fans, their biggest desire this season is not to pursue entering the Champions League - anyway, Liverpool fans are used to the team's absence from the Champions League.

What really hurts the Liverpool people is that this season, Manchester United has surpassed the dust and is about to win the Premier League championship again.

What could be more painful than seeing one's sworn enemy triumph, especially when one's own team is in such a shambles.

In the past, Liverpool fans still had a sense of superiority over Manchester United fans. Although Liverpool had not won the Premier League title, before 2011, their top league titles were more than Manchester United. In addition, they had five Champions Leagues. And Manchester United has only three, so in terms of the number of important championships, Liverpool overwhelmed Manchester United, which of course became the basis for Liverpool fans to laugh at Manchester United.

However, after the end of the 2011 season, Ferguson led Manchester United to the No. 19 top league championships. After more than 20 years of coaching Manchester United, he finally realized his rhetoric of "pulling Liverpool completely off the throne".

After winning the No.19 crown, the excited Manchester United fans even secretly sneaked into Anfield, Liverpool's home stadium, and quietly hung the slogan of 19 top league championships on the stands of Anfield at the risk of retaliation for the humiliation of Liverpool fans to Manchester United. .

Before Ferguson retired, Manchester United had won [-] top league titles, completely overwhelming Liverpool, which had won [-] top league titles.

After Ferguson retired, Manchester United's performance was sluggish for two consecutive years, especially in the first season under Moyes, Manchester United even won the seventh place in the league.

Almost all Liverpool people are willing to believe that this is the beginning of Manchester United's decline, and when Manchester United sinks, it must be their Red Army Liverpool who will rise again!

This is God's arrangement!Liverpool people are celebrating the fall of Manchester United.

However, after only two seasons, Manchester United has risen strongly again, and this time it seems to be stronger than Ferguson at that time, which is really too unacceptable for Liverpool people.

Therefore, they must work hard to mess up Manchester United's championship!
For the Liverpool people, this game is a good opportunity to stop Manchester United.

Now Manchester United has won 53 games in [-] league rounds, tied [-] games, lost [-] game, and scored [-] points.

Arsenal and Leicester City, which are now ranked second and No. 3, both scored 43 points, ten points behind Manchester United.Liverpool fans have calculated very clearly that if Manchester United loses at Anfield this time, and Arsenal or Leicester City can win this round, then Manchester United will only have seven points ahead of No.2. up.

With a seven-point difference, with half a season left in the league, such a point difference is no longer a big advantage.

For Liverpool, if they can't win the championship, then of course they don't want Manchester United to win the championship!

Of course Klopp knows the expectations of Liverpool fans. He temporarily took over Liverpool's coach in the middle of the season, but Liverpool's lineup did not meet his expectations, and the team's large-scale injuries also made him deal with the intensive schedule of the Premier League. The time seemed very exhausting.

Therefore, Liverpool's poor performance is not the reason for Klopp, but in any case, as the team's head coach, he must of course take responsibility.

This game is undoubtedly very difficult for Liverpool, but Klopp is not someone who admits defeat easily.

Klopp said in an interview before the game: "I know this is a very important game for our fans. Although I have not experienced the red derby before, I am deeply impressed by the atmosphere of Liverpool these days. I feel that this is a fierce battle that is no less hot than the Ruhr Derby! We will go all out at home. I enjoy the atmosphere of the game against Arsenal very much. No matter who the opponent is, we can do it very good."

"Ancelotti? He is one of the most successful coaches in the world with a lot of experience!"

"How to defend Li Qingshan? It is really difficult to completely defend this big man, but I think Mr. Ancelotti should consider how to defend Coutinho, how to defend Sturridge, how to defend Firmino , our attacking group will surprise Manchester United at home."

Klopp didn't show weakness just because his opponent was Manchester United. In fact, Klopp's coaching philosophy may not have the word shrink back.

Crazy pressing in the frontcourt, crazy running, and non-stop attacking are the characteristics of Klopp's team.

Even against Manchester United.

To sum it up in one sentence: Don't be cowardly, just do it!
