Chinese fans feel reassured and happy that they have Jiang Chenxi in the Chinese team, and they have reason to look forward to facing strong hosts Australia.

And if anyone feels a little depressed and impatient about the Chinese team reaching the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup, I am afraid it is Liverpool fans, because it means that Jiang Chenxi will continue to miss Liverpool's games.

On the same day that China beat North Korea 3-1, Liverpool also ushered in the 22nd round of the Premier League, and in the end, Liverpool were held to a 0-0 draw away from Aston Villa.

And in this round, Chelsea won 5-0 away to Swansea.

Without Jiang Chenxi, Liverpool have drawn two consecutive league games and are now just four points ahead of Chelsea behind them.

Two weeks ago, Liverpool were as many as eight points ahead of Chelsea, and the English media once exclaimed that the suspense for the league title was getting smaller and smaller, but now there is only a four-point lead left, and the Premier League title suspense is back again.

……

Regarding Liverpool's two consecutive draws, the English media has a very unanimous opinion: without Jiang Chenxi, the top scorer, Liverpool is in a difficult situation of not being able to score.

The Guardian: Liverpool have a disease called 'no Jiang Chenxi', and as soon as the Chinese stars come back, they can jump around immediately.

"The Times" also joked that it is estimated that all Liverpool fans are now looking forward to the Chinese team stopping in the Asian Cup, so that their star can come back to save the car.

In fact, when learning that the Chinese team met the powerful host Australia in the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup, many Liverpool fans had a trace of expectation, and the kangaroos, who can wrestle with European and American teams in the World Cup, should be able to stop the Chinese team from advancing......

"The Sun" also took the opportunity to hype that Liverpool suffered from 'Jiang Chenxi dependence', the media hated by Liverpool fans said that Liverpool has Jiang Chenxi, which is actually a hidden danger, look at it, now the crisis of 'Jiang Chenxi dependence' is reflected.

Of course, Liverpool fans completely ignored the illogical words of the Sun, what's the matter? We just have the new world footballer, we have Jiang Chenxi, we are happy, we are willing to rely on him, what's the matter?

……

Melwood Training Base.

Klopp was chatting with his assistant Kravitz.

"Do you think the Chinese team can win against Australia?"

"I guess I can." "In the 2006 World Cup, Australia almost put that champion, Italy, in big trouble. ”

He rarely pays attention to the national teams of other countries, and for Australia, he is most impressed by the World Cup in Germany eight years ago, when the Italians relied on penalties to win against Australia in the last minute of the game, which was the hardest game of that World Cup.

"As long as Jiang Chenxi returns to the team, everything will be fine." Kravitz said.

Klopp rubbed his temples, of course he knew that Liverpool's current situation was that the team had always taken Jiang Chenxi as the core of the attack, and had long been accustomed to scoring goals around Jiang Chenxi, and now, Jiang Chenxi was not in the team, and Liverpool's attack immediately had problems, and the most direct way to solve the problem was for Jiang Chenxi to come back, and everything would be solved.

It's just that Jiang Chenxi's return date has not been decided.

Klopp can't wait now, he has to solve the scoring problem for the team without Jiang Chenxi.

……

Jiang Chenxi is not in the team, and there is only one center forward that Liverpool can rely on now, and that is Balotelli.

The Italian international is still in good form in training, but his performance in the game is very average......

Let's use it first...... Jurgen Klopp decided to develop a set of tactics around Balotelli for the time being, asking the whole squad to provide more support to the Italian striker.

At the very least, Balotelli's ability and talent are recognized, maybe there are surprises?

Not far away, on the training ground, a strange scream was heard.

"What sound?" Klopp frowned.

"It's Mario. Balotelli. Kravitz said with a wry smile, and Balotelli burst out with a grimace mask to scare people, and Sterling was so frightened that he sat on the ground...... Then Balotelli jumped and jumped triumphantly, like a fool.

……

After the day's training.

Balotelli returned to his accommodation in his Aston Martin sports car, where his agent, Raiola, was already waiting for him.

"Mario, here's your chance." Raiola said, "Jiang Chenxi is not in the team, now Liverpool need someone to step up and score, and this is your chance." ”

"As long as you seize this opportunity and win Klopp's trust, in that case, even if Jiang Chenxi returns to the team, he may not be able to shake your main position."

"Woohoo......" Raiola heard this 'whoop' as he spoke, and then turned his head to see that Balotelli was not listening at all, he was teasing his husky: the dog was lying on all fours and swinging on the ground, and his two little thick legs were kicking his balls.

And Balotelli was happy to see the hunt, and lay on the ground, learning the stupid dog's movements, and pretending that he was kicking the balls too......

"Mario, are you listening to me?" Raiola was a little angry.

"I'm listening." Balotelli said.

"This is an opportunity, you have to seize ......"

"I know, don't worry, I'm going to surprise everyone." Balotelli reached over with his left foot and kicked the stupid dog's balls, who grinned, silly and waved his paws with a look of enjoyment, as if to say, 'Comfortable, continue'......

……

Raiola stroked his forehead, those media only knew to scold him and say bad things about him, but how did they know that his job was hard, whether it was Balotelli or Pogba, or Ibrahimovic, none of them made him worry.

Life is not easy!

"In the next few games, you must seize the opportunity to grab the main position before Jiang Chenxi returns to the team." Raiola paused, "It's not a drill, I mean it, if you don't do it well, I'll punish you." ”

"What punishment?" Balotelli asked curiously, and as he spoke, he took a French baguette and poked at the husky's balls......

It seems that Mario likes this dog very much, and Raiola knows what to say, "If you don't please me, I'll take this dog to surgery." ”

"Surgery? What surgery? "Balotelli was taken aback?

"Castration surgery." Raiola said, "Cut off the stupid balls." ”

"What?" Balotelli's face changed, and he glanced at Raiola and then at his dog, as if imagining what it would be like for this dog to have no balls, "That's interesting, why don't we take it for surgery now?" ”

Looking at Balotelli, who suddenly became excited and eager to try, Raiola suddenly felt like Sinse......
