Zhang Yuan tried many ways in the first half, long-range shots, headers, and dribbling to the penalty area, but each of them ended up being a little short of a goal. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

With 54 minutes into the second half, Rodgers brought on Balotelli and he was even less comfortable with the team, showing little in the first half, except for a long-range shot from the periphery.

Coutinho was replaced, but Liverpool failed to convert the advantage into a goal under the possession of more than 70 percent, and in the 80th minute, Zhang Yuan was replaced by Lambert, and Liverpool did not equalize in the end.

Before the game, many bookmakers had dismissed the game as a potential upset, but it turned out to be an upset, with Liverpool failing to beat Aston Villa at Anfield once again.

Zhang Yuan looked frustrated when he spoke to reporters after the game.

"It was a mistake in itself that we didn't win this game! They were a very difficult opponent but we were a little out of form today! Now I can only hope that we can play better in the next game! ”

"Zhang, what do you think of your performance in this game?!"

"I was unlucky, I got some opportunities today, but I didn't take them! I'm going to adjust my form and show a different version of myself in the Champions League! ”

The first round of the Champions League group stage of the new season in midweek, Liverpool's Champions League schedule this season is also quite good, the first game is Ludogorets, the weakest in the group, Liverpool has not played in the Champions League for three years, this time to meet the weakest team at home, it is undoubtedly very good, winning the opening can increase everyone's morale.

Zhang Yuan did not break his promise, in the Champions League group stage match against Ludogorets on the evening of September 16, he showed his might, scored a hat trick, led the team to sweep Ludogorets 5:1, coincidentally in another game in his old club Real Madrid is also at home 5:1 loudly Basel, both teams even have the same goal difference, tied for the top of the group.

This victory has put less pressure on Liverpool, because the start of the league with two wins and two losses is really a bit, especially when a lot of money is spent, Rodgers's position under the ass is like pins and needles, it is not so easy, and no one will say anything if other teams play like this, but in the Liverpool giant, there are not too few people who say it.

Chelsea, who have won all four games, have already left Liverpool by six points at the beginning of this game, how not to make outside critics anxious.

However, Liverpool's nightmare is not over, on the afternoon of September 20 away to West Ham United, Rodgers made a rotation, Zhang Yuan, who had been playing at a high intensity in a row, was put on the bench by him, and in the forward position he used Balotelli, Lallana and Malkovic.

As a result, Liverpool was beaten 3:0 by West Ham United in the first half, Balotelli's attitude was very positive, but as a very small, Rodgers had to let Zhang Yuan, Coutinho, Sterling play after the second half, after these three played, the situation has changed a lot, West Ham United was overwhelmed, Liverpool scored two goals in a row by Zhang Yuan and Coutinho, but in the end failed to save the defeat.

Three of the five games have been lost, the Liverpool fans can't sit still, the players are disappointed, and the owner Qian Huanyuan can't sit still in China.

In Qian Huan's British style outside and in the Chinese style inside the mansion, Qian Huan asked Zhang Yuan: "What is the situation of the team now?!" ”

Qian Huan ran to the UK in a hurry, and the first person he asked in person was Zhang Yuan, whether Zhang Yuan was his friend or a player, and he must know the real situation of some players.

"What are you talking about?!"

"What do you say I say! Damn, Lao Tzu spent so much money and lost 3 out of 5 games, is this the effect I want?! I really should have let him fuck off in the summer! Qian Huan was heartbroken.

"Mister Rogers is actually good!" Zhang Yuan said a good word for Rogers.

"Recently, the team's defensive crisis has been more serious, and the team still has some deficiencies in the run-in, but I think if I can give him a little more time, it should be better!" Zhang Yuan said again.

"Well, hopefully, I don't want to see my money in vain! If the situation doesn't improve, I'll fire him! Qian Huan replied.

"Haha, I just wanted to ask you a question! You fired Mr. Rogers, and then what?! Do you have an alternative?! Brother Huan, don't make this decision lightly! Zhang Yuan persuaded.

"Alternative?! How not?! I'm going to go to Lippi to coach! Qian Huan said casually.

Damn, he?! Forget it!

"Brother Huan, you really have to listen to me this time, you can't let him come to Liverpool!" Zhang Yuan jumped up from the sofa and said to Qian Huan in an anxious tone.

"Why?!"

"Feeling! I don't think he can make it! How many years has he not coached at a European club?! Just because he can succeed in China and have a glorious past doesn't mean he can do a good job at Liverpool! Zhang Yuan said.

He is really opposed to inviting Lippi, he personally thinks that his style is conservative, his tactical thinking is backward, and he will not have good results when he comes to the Premier League, Conte's football style can't make Zhang Yuan really satisfied, let alone Lippi, and this person is old and qualified, and his unique temper is stubborn and inflexible, how can Zhang Yuan believe him? !

"You resent him?!" Qian Huan asked curiously.

"Why should I be disgusted with him?!" Zhang Yuan said strangely, "I just think the team is not suitable for him!" ”

Qian Huan smiled again, "Don't worry! I just said that, I really haven't gone to him, but I'm looking for a backup right now! What do you suggest?! ”

"My advice has been given to you! You should be a little patient, you know that I have no less desire to succeed than you, Rodgers has done a good job at Liverpool in the past few years, the situation is more complicated before this season, it will not be wrong to give him a little more time! Zhang Yuan said.

Qian Huan thought about it and nodded.

He came and went fast this time, Rogers knew that the boss was coming, but the boss didn't say anything, and he didn't bother him, every day the bombardment was overwhelming, Rogers was also worried about his future, or that he didn't want to get out of class!

But this opening record made him feel that if the boss really wanted to take his own class, he would have nothing to say, who knew that the boss would leave lightly without taking a trace of clouds!

Rogers knew that Zhang Yuan had said good things for him, Zhang Yuan didn't say anything, and Rogers didn't say anything.

Rodgers continued to rotate in midweek when Liverpool hosted Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup, and he had to give up strategically on such games, although it would be nice if the substitutes could go further.

Liverpool's top management has not given him a lot of goals this year, mainly attacking the league, last season they were the runner-up, and the top management has a further level, the goal is self-evident, which is why the Liverpool top management is a little anxious when they lose 3 in 5 games, according to this loss, I am afraid that Liverpool will run to the relegation circle.

Therefore, in the English League Cup, Brendan Rodgers also sent a lot of substitutes, changing all positions, so Liverpool had some difficulty against Middlesbrough, and as a result, everyone played a draw in 120 minutes and could only play a brutal penalty shootout.

Then this penalty made a new history, a jaw-dropping penalty to the fifteenth round, which is a record in the English League Cup, and Liverpool's promotion is also quite thrilling, because of this exciting picture, Liverpool players are very excited in the end.

Zhang Yuan didn't play a minute in this game, and Brendan Rodgers was obviously trying to save for the weekend against Everton, which is a derby, the most famous derby in the history of the Premier League, and much more awesome than the original Manchester derby.

However, this season Liverpool and Everton are difficult brothers, Liverpool currently only 6 points, ranked 11th in the league standings, and Everton is worse than them, only 5 points, ranked 14th in the standings, only 1 point away from the relegation circle, Liverpool is not much only two points, saying that this derby is very critical and interesting for both sides, if you don't do well, you will personally step on the opponent into the relegation circle.
