Despite its rich history, there is no hiding that Anfield is still an old stadium that, despite several refurbishments, is still nothing compared to a modern course.

When Arsenal set up a new stadium, they were really envious, but there was no way, Anfield used it well, and there was no great need to build a new stadium, so the club's financial pressure was too great.

But Notts County, a League One team, is about to have its own modern stadium, which makes Liverpool extremely resentful.

Hundreds of millions of pounds!

Liverpool really can't take it out!

Even if you sell all the players, you won't be able to sell them for this price!

So they can only envy now.

"Hey, no matter how good the stadium is, it's useless, the team has no strength in vain, even if an amateur team has a modern stadium with 80,000 people, it can only fly kites and play in it, it's meaningless!"

These are the words of comfort to the Liverpool players, although they sound sour.

While the two sides were warming up on the field, Gerrard looked at the training on the opposite side of Notts County with some absent-mindedness, and his eyes were always focused on one person.

The man who was on Gerrard's radar was Alonso.

As Liverpool's banner mission, Gerrard's thinking has never been considered by Liverpool.

Liverpool's results have deteriorated in recent seasons, and despite a five-sounding title, it can't hide the fact that the Reds are less competitive.

Looking at the team's current staffing, although it is good in the Premier League, apart from himself and Owen, which player is worthy of the status of a giant!

It's not a simple question anymore!

Ever since Notts County made a name for themselves in England, Steven Gerrard has been following the magical side for no other reason than to watch Alonso's performances.

In the Premier League, which does not focus on rhythm control, Alonso's controlling, technical midfielder is highly praised, and his excellent scheduling ability and relatively mature rhythm control are currently lacking in Premier League teams.

If a player of Alonso's type can come to Liverpool to help him, will Liverpool's midfield be much stronger?

Imagine that the B2B self, the playmaker Alonso, plus the defensive Hamann, the three of them are enough to dominate the midfield, even against Keane's Manchester United midfielder and Vieira's Arsenal midfield.

As a result, will Liverpool's competitiveness skyrocket, and then potentially get their hands on the Premier League trophy that they have never lifted?

Gerald couldn't help but look at it.

When the players from both sides returned to the dressing room after the warm-up, Gerrard deliberately dragged a little back, approached Alonso, and said hello generously.

"Hello, Harvey!"

Alonso was a little baffled, he didn't know why Gerrard had come to his side at this time, was it just to say hello?

Smiling and nodding, Alonso thought it was better not to say too much, even if it would seem a little rude.

"Forgive me for being direct, I want to ask, do you have any ideas for joining Liverpool?" Seeing that Alonso didn't seem interested in chatting with him, he quickly threw out his own questions.

Brother Long was stunned for a moment, stopped, and looked at Gerald in surprise, but he didn't react for a while.

Usually it is the club's business to invite players, why does one of the other players invite him?

'I'm sorry, I don't have the idea of joining Liverpool, I'm doing well in Notts County!' After politely refusing Gerrard, Alonso wanted to hurry back to the dressing room, and Loew had to make a pre-match speech, and as captain, he couldn't be late.

Seeing Alonso's direct refusal, Gerrard was a little anxious, "Please believe me, if you can come to Liverpool, then we can immediately create the most powerful midfield combination, the Premier League championship, the Champions League championship will be possible, do you want to create brilliance and miracles with us?" ”

Alonso stopped again, turned his head and looked at Gerrard calmly.

Miracles?

I'm interested!

But I'm sorry!

I've done wonders with my team-mates in Notts County!

So, wealthy, I'm not rare!

Destined to one day, Notts County will also become a giant!

Looking at Gerrard's expectant gaze and expression, Alonso shook his head with a smile and turned and walked into the players' tunnel, leaving Gerrard in place unable to hide his disappointed expression.

"What did you talk to him about? I think you're disappointed! As soon as he walked into the dressing room, Owen asked Gerrard in a whisper.

Gerrard shook his head with a wry smile, and said with a little regret: "I was just inviting Alonso to join us in Liverpool, so that our midfield will be stronger, and we will have the opportunity to challenge for the championship, but I was rejected!" ”

Owen was a little surprised, although the two have been friends since the youth team, and they are both talented players from Liverpool's academy, but all along, it seems that Gerrard's Reds genes are a little purer, and it can be seen from here that the game is about to be played, and it is really a bit unimaginable to invite opponent players to join the Reds.

"Alonso? Is that the playmaker in the Notts County team? Well, this player is really very strong, and this kind of control style of play is really rare in the Premier League, you did the right thing, if he can really come, I think our strength will definitely go to the next level! ”

After pondering for a moment, Owen affirmed.

It's not just that Alonso is a playmaker at the back, but Owen has to think a little bit more.

In the England national team, the reason why Owen can often score one-on-one goals for thousands of miles is because there is a Beckham in the back who can deliver cannonballs for him and make long passes extremely accurate.

And Alonso is also a player with long passing skills, and in the transition between attack and defense, he can even find the player on the front line with a long pass without scheduling, so that his speed will have more room to play!

However, Gerrard has already said that Alonso refused, which made him more disappointed.

Well, well, since Alonso is reluctant to come, then we will beat Notts County cleanly in this game to show the strength of the Reds, maybe Alonso will be impressed by Liverpool's strong strength, crying and shouting to come to Liverpool to play!

I have to say that Owen is still very imaginative.

However, both Gerrard and Owen ignore the fact that Alonso is paid in Notts County.

If they knew that Alonso's salary was even higher than the two of them, I'm afraid they would be so indifferent! (To be continued.) )
