Revive Liverpool

Chapter 247 Unexpected

After another red-blue battle between Liverpool and Chelsea, the Premier League standings are now undergoing major changes.

Arsenal overtook Liverpool and sat at the top of the league.The current score is 42 points.

And Liverpool only lost one game, and they fell from the first position in the league to the fourth position in the league.

With an away victory over Liverpool, Chelsea overtook Liverpool and came to second place in the league. They now have 40 points in the league.

And Manchester City also achieved a victory, reaching 39 points, the same points as Liverpool, and Manchester City will rank third in the league with their goal difference advantage, and Liverpool will come to the fourth position in the league.

Comparing the goal difference with other teams in the Premier League this season, except for Manchester City, Liverpool can win, just like Liverpool used their goal difference advantage to overwhelm Arsenal this time, sitting at the top of the league standings.

……

The devil's schedule is not over yet, with only two days of truce, Liverpool will face Hull City on New Year's Day.

In the first round of the Premier League match between the two teams this season, Liverpool unexpectedly lost to Hull City in an away game, which was a surprise.

Sitting at home this time, Liverpool must pursue a victory to wash away the shame, and can't let Hull City double kill themselves.

Just finished two difficult away games, Liverpool's first home game after Christmas, the scene was very lively.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard returned from injury and was on standby on the bench.

In the 19th minute, Coutinho took a free kick from the right side of the front field into the penalty area, and Lewandowski scored with a header, [-]-[-].

In the 36th minute, Coutinho took a corner kick from the right side of the front court and entered the penalty area. Agger jumped high and shook his head to attack the goal from the penalty spot. The ball bounced off the ground and went into the net.Liverpool [-]-[-] Hull City.

"Ager put in a good header, but Figueroa made the wrong decision, he stood in front of the goalkeeper and should have cleared the ball."

Only 5 minutes into the second half, Suarez took advantage of the opportunity of a free kick in the front court and directly sent a curved ball. Although the goalkeeper made a flying save, he still couldn't stop the ball from flying into the upper left corner of the goal.Liverpool [-]-[-] Hull City.

"Suarez's technique is unbelievable, the free kick has a perfect trajectory. Before the goalkeeper can react, the ball flies into the net in a split second."

In the previous two games against Manchester City and Chelsea, Suarez suddenly fell silent.

The two games failed to score a goal. Suarez, who scored [-] goals in the previous [-] games, misfired, which is also one of the reasons why Liverpool failed to win two consecutive games.

After making threats many times, Suarez finally broke through the opponent's goal with a free kick in this game. While harvesting his 19th goal of the season, he also completed the miracle of 7 consecutive home goals.

In the 62nd minute, Gerrard, who had returned from injury, came on as a substitute for Coutinho.

The Liverpool fans at the scene applauded Gerrard's comeback.

At the end of the game, Liverpool beat Hull City [-]-[-].

Ended the previous two rounds of invincibility, stopped the decline, and scored three points.

Arsenal, Manchester City, and Chelsea have all won this round, although Liverpool's [-]-[-] victory over Hull City in this round has more goal difference than Manchester City's [-]-[-] away victory over Swansea.

But Liverpool can only continue to stay in the fourth place in the league.

The focus of this game is Manchester United's home game against Tottenham. The previous five-game winning streak made Manchester United and the media think that Manchester United has hope again, but Manchester United lost again at home in this game.

This game is the last in this round of the league. In the previous games, Everton and Newcastle United did not win in front of Manchester United.

Everton had a draw, while Newcastle United lost [-]-[-].

Originally, Manchester United hoped to hit the European theater, but in the game against Tottenham, Manchester United failed to win.

Before this game, Tottenham and Manchester United had the same league points, and both teams had the opportunity to rush to the European theater.

But Manchester United lost the game and fell from seventh to eighth. There is definitely no hope for the championship, and the distance from the Champions League has also become farther.

……

The league is temporarily suspended, and the FA Cup game is coming as scheduled.

Liverpool's opponent is Oldham again.

The two teams have met on the FA Cup stage three times in a row.

When the two teams met last season, Oldham beat Liverpool [-]-[-] at home, and last season, Liverpool beat Oldham [-]-[-] at home.

This time it's Liverpool's turn again.

Because it was an FA Cup match, even though they had lost to their opponents [-]-[-] before, how could they kill a chicken with a sledgehammer?

Liverpool still lined up some substitutes for this game.

Arnold of the Liverpool youth team also got the chance to play in this game.

Before the game, Liverpool and Oldham mourned Eusebio who had just passed away due to illness.

In the match between Liverpool and Oldham, Sterling and Lewandowski both scored goals.

Liverpool won the game with a score of [-]-[-] and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup.

……

While the competition continues, the arrival of January will also open the winter transfer window.

Liverpool's goal this winter transfer window is to bring in a centre-back.

Originally, the club and Klopp planned to introduce a left-back, but after trying Robertson for a while.

It can't be said to be really fragrant, but Klopp still intends to make him the team's main left back during this time.

During Robertson's time as the team's left-back, despite being full of loopholes at the beginning, Robertson has been increasing the ball and his performance in the team is getting better and better.

And the most important thing is to be willing to run and be able to run.Klopp is also satisfied with him.

I don't plan to introduce left-backs from the outside anymore, and choose to continue training Robertson.

As for Danny Rose returning from injury, who will be the team's main left back?
Then we will see the performance of Robertson and Danny Rose.

As for the position of central defender, Liverpool intends to introduce a central defender. Agger was injured again in the game against Oldham. Skrtel and Manolas are still fine.

Kolo Toure, a veteran player, is no longer good until the season has progressed, and Klopp is now on the bench.

If Manolas still can't reach Klopp's goal during this period, Liverpool will introduce a central defender.

And Liverpool's scouts have been looking for a suitable central defender during this time.

Southampton's Lovren is on the team's inspection list.

Of course, there are some other players besides Lovren.
