With Lonshette's sudden explosion in the second half, Liverpool reversed West Ham United 4-2 away from home, and finally did not beat in the first game of the new year.

The 21st round of the league is scheduled for January 13, ten days later.

This doesn't mean Liverpool get 10 days off, but because they have a Carabao Cup game in between.

On January 6, with a set of semi-main and half-substitute lineups, Liverpool defeated Stoke City 4-2 away, won the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals, and basically entered the final with half a foot.

Lonjut didn't even make the 18-man squad for this game – after all, it was a two-legged home and away game, and even if he lost 5-0 away, he would still be confident of coming back to Anfield.

A proper rest is better for him and the team than for him to play all the games without landing – not to mention, he and Emma have been a bit of a physical drain lately......

"Well, the New Year is finally over, and from now on, if I find anyone immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year, we will take the necessary punitive measures."

During a training session on January 8, Rogers emphasized discipline to his disciples:

'We played well in the first half, top of the table, six points clear of second place, but I'm sure you know, that doesn't say anything. If we don't be vigilant and give our all in every training session and game, the Premier League trophy won't fly into our hands on its own.

The next two weeks will be another big test for us, Arsenal and Manchester United, such opponents should not need me to waste any more introductions. Both games were at home and I don't accept any other result than a win! ”

Rodgers is not particularly determined in his personality and, as many have commented, a little weaker, but this time against title rivals such as Arsenal and the Red Devils, he has no intention of compromising.

The manager's personality often affects the players, and if he is not confident, how can the players be united against the enemy?!

As the captain, Long Shute clenched his fists hard:

"The last time I was careless in the Northwest derby, we will definitely let Van Gaal and Manchester United double it!"

Henderson, who missed the previous game due to injury, also patted his chest:

"Manchester United! Let everyone know that the red color of England will always belong only to Liverpool! ”

Although the match between Liverpool and Manchester United is clearly behind Arsenal, the ...... Neither the manager nor the players have taken London's arsenal to heart.

Match at home against Arsenal...... Still need to watch?

January 13th.

It was 4 a.m. in China and 8 p.m. in England.

It's 8 o'clock, but you know, the sun has already gone down at 4 p.m. in Liverpool, and those who have nothing to do in the winter are probably already under the covers......

At such a moment, Anfield Stadium is definitely the most populated public place in the entire city of Liverpool.

"Crackling ......"

The first leg between Liverpool and Arsenal took place in August in the summer, when it was still the hottest season.

After 20 minutes, the Emirates Stadium saw a sudden rain shower, which seriously disrupted the tactical planning of both sides.

But today is different.

At noon on this day, the whole north-west of England was covered with rain, and some areas at higher altitudes were covered with snowflakes, and after entering the night, Xiaoice crystals and small snowflakes gradually appeared in the rain, and the temperature in Liverpool city gradually approached 0 degrees.

Arsène Wenger, who had just walked out of the players' tunnel, couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the snow and rain flying all over the sky:

"This hellish place, it's raining so hard, it's even colder than London!"

The security guard standing beside him immediately sprayed him:

"Nonsense, have you ever studied geography in junior high school? It's the North! ”

-

"Finally, check your gear, shin guards, gloves, spike boots, and laces, and if you're afraid of the cold, there's still time to change your pants! Quick, get me moving! ”

"Substitutes should keep warm, and when it is time to move, they should also get up and run two steps, and don't freeze on the bench!"

In the home dressing room at Anfield, the voice of assistant coach Mike Marsh still reverberates.

Two equipment managers were busy going back and forth with the eleven starters.

"Dragon, I see that you never seem to be afraid of the cold, huh?"

Firmino said enviously as he wore tight, warm trousers.

Although he played in the Bundesliga for several years, he was born in Brazil and still couldn't tolerate the cold climate of the British Isles, which was fine in the summer, but when it rained in the winter, he really didn't want to go out of the door......

Long Shute raised his hands:

"Who said that? I'm wearing gloves today! ”

"Cut!"

Several teammates booed dismissively, and an itchy Emrejan even extended a middle finger......

"Coach," Ronshit immediately patted him on the shoulder, then shouted, "Emre is not in good shape for today, and I suggest that he be substituted." ”

Rogers was a little surprised, he hadn't encountered anything like this before.

But since Big Long has spoken, do you have to think about it?

But the German teenager immediately coaxed, he put his arm around Lonschit, and explained to the head coach with a smile:

"Chief, I'm kidding the captain, I'm in good shape, aren't I, captain?"

Coutinho, who was sitting in the corner, looked at them and couldn't help muttering in the language of his hometown:

"Really...... Ball Boss! ”

He didn't know that whether he spoke Portuguese or Spanish, Long Shute could understand it!

-

"It's a nuisance to rain."

Wenger said to himself again.

Because less than 10 minutes into the game, his team ...... You've already conceded the ball!

It came from Emre Can's burst of effort from the left side of the penalty area, and although Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech struggled to make a save, the ball became faster and more aggressive due to the slippery turf...... He's completely irresponsible.

The bounced ball landed at the feet of Firmino on the right side of the penalty area, and "Brazilian Wen Zhaolun" gently unloaded his left foot, and then pumped the ball between Koscielny's legs into the near corner!

1-0！

The "Firmino Song" rang out in the KOP stands, and the Brazilian who opened the scoring took off his No. 11 shirt as he raced to the corner flag area, revealing his ...... Black long-sleeved tights.

Long Shute couldn't help but want to laugh:

You're not ready to flex your muscles, so why do you have to take your clothes off?

The referee unceremoniously gave the Brazilian a yellow card, and Firmino didn't care.

Rogers was unhappy:

"Just 10 minutes into the game, I took the initiative to apply for a yellow card, I really don't understand the thoughts of these South Americans! Or is the dragon more like an Englishman, he never takes off his clothes inexplicably! ”

Can't it be like that?

After all, he's from "England in Asia"!

Whether it's Liverpool at home or Arsenal from afar, players on both sides are no strangers to rain and snow, except for those newcomers who have just landed in the Premier League, and at least a third of their games every year suffer from such bad weather.

The rain and snow will undoubtedly greatly affect the movement of the players on the field, and will also greatly reduce the tactical arrangement of the coaches of both sides.

On this kind of turf, you can't expect the players to play with a fluid passing and cutting combination, and slips, accidents and mistakes are bound to be the main theme of the game.

Even Mohe player Long Shute had to be more vigilant, he minimized the number of high-speed runs, stayed more in the defensive midfield position, and handed over the task of charging to other teammates in the frontcourt.

Emre Can thought he had become the heart of the team's attack, and he fired two long-range shots into the net area in five minutes, but both of them did not escape Cech's fingers and could not get him a goal.

The impetuous German youngster's fourth shot didn't even enter the box and was blocked by Ramsey's outstretched foot.

As soon as Cech was guarding in front of the goal, he wanted to catch his breath when he saw Ramsey, who had just completed the block, continue to pounce forward like crazy!

Staying ten meters away in the penalty area, Lonshit deftly pulled the ball sideways, dodged Giroud, who was closest to him, and then fired a shot with the inside instep!

26 meters from the goal line, no one guards, no one is watching!

Is there any difficulty in shooting like this for Long Shute?

"Boom!"

Petr's right hand was stretched to the extreme, but he still couldn't reach the top edge of the goal, he could only watch the black and white football spin and spin, as if pulled by an invisible silk thread, and flew into the top corner of the goal!

2-0！

Liverpool won two in a row in 16 minutes!
