349 Premier League "Final"
readx;
The 4-0 thrashing of fifth-placed Newcastle United surprised those who had been waiting to see Liverpool make a mistake due to the club's financial problems!
The club's top brass also breathed a sigh of relief. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this season's results have been the team's best performance since the English top league was renamed the Premier League. They don't want to let the team's debt affect the team's record.
In fact, in the view of chairman Morse and CEO Perry, although the debt of 50 million pounds may seem huge, as long as they can win the league and the Champions League this season, the ensuing bonuses and advertising revenue will definitely make up for the financial deficit.
Then, this summer, the transfer market will add some powerful players, so that the team's record will enter a stable period, and then the finances will enter a good cycle.
In this way, Morse naturally will not let his rival Morgan inject capital in.
Want to be my equal? No way!
After the match against Newcastle United, although there are still many media outlets concerned about Liverpool's financial crisis. But the intensity is much lower than before.
In today's era, what is needed to do news is gimmicks, gimmicks that can attract people. And these gimmicks also have a freshness problem. It's hard to keep readers' attention when you're always stirring leftovers!
If we say, there are consortia constantly coming out to buy Liverpool. They can still extend such a "fragment" of Liverpool's financial crisis into a large-scale soap opera. But after Liverpool publicly rejected any form of acquisition or capital injection, some of the original consortia and tycoons also gave up.
Of course, there are also those who are not relentless and oppose Liverpool.
The Sun's Howard seems to have made up his mind to "come back to the world" after being honest for a while. Anyway, Liverpool fans have long been offended by The Sun, and he doesn't care about continuing to offend.
In his latest column, he argues that Liverpool's big win over Newcastle United does not mean that the Liverpool players are not affected by the financial crisis.
He believes that Liverpool will need to prove themselves with the same consistency as before.
In the next round of the league, they will take on Arsenal, who are second in the league, at Highbury Stadium. This crucial battle for the top of the table is the real test for the Liverpool team!
As an Arsenal fan, Howard also spared no effort to build momentum for Arsenal.
He said the battle for Highbury could be a watershed moment and Arsenal would have a big hope of winning against Liverpool, before Liverpool would make a series of mistakes in the final rounds of fixtures due to defeat and the club's financial problems, and eventually lose the title. After all, they still have one more time to face Manchester United in their final four games!
As for the reason, Howard put forward the so-called "heritage theory". In his opinion, although Liverpool have won many English top league titles, they have no experience in the Premier League.
As the only team in the Premier League that can compete with Premier League hegemon Manchester United in the past decade, Arsenal has a lot more heritage. At the same time, he also thinks that the experienced gunners in the arsenal can make a comeback in the final rounds!
In fact, the upcoming battle for the top spot between Liverpool and Arsenal is also an important reason for the media to divert attention.
Liverpool vs Arsenal, this is a conversation between two teams who have created the myth of unbeaten league in Europe this season!
If the match is decided, the winning side will have the myth of unbeaten to their own devices. At the same time, it will also take the initiative in the competition for the league title.
The points gap between Liverpool and Arsenal is now four points, so it is also a win-and-can-lose game for Arsenal.
Winning to close the gap to one point, Arsenal still have a lot of hope of turning the tables with Liverpool still having to challenge Manchester United at Old Trafford in the final four rounds.
But if they draw or even lose, based on Liverpool's consistent performance this season, Arsenal's reversal will become an impossible task.
Arsene Wenger said in an interview before the game: "There is no doubt that this will be the most important game of the season! This league game against Liverpool is as important to me as the Champions League final! At Highbury, we have only one goal! That's to win Liverpool and close the gap to one point! ”
Henry, King of Highbury, also showed his determination before the game: "It's a race that decides the championship! I'll use my goal to tear apart Liverpool's defence! The victory belongs to Arsenal, the title belongs to Arsenal! ”
Thierry Henry has been in great form this season, and it is only a matter of time before he scores more than 30 league goals, a feat that will be in contention for the European Golden Boot in previous years. But he ran into the perverted Chen Xi, who was more than a dozen goals ahead of him on the scorer list. In terms of personal honor, he can't compete with Chen Xi, he can only hope for the honor of the team!
On top of that, Gunners captain Patrick Vieira, who has been the subject of transfer rumours lately, also showed his confidence: "This season, at Anfield, we almost beat them. It's just that they were lucky enough to chase two goals in a row. If I had been on the floor that time, I would never have allowed that to happen. This time, in Highbury, it will be when their undefeated streak ends! ”
The three Frenchmen are arguably the definitive representatives of Arsenal and their attitude is the attitude of the team.
It can be seen that Arsenal's determination to win this game is quite firm!
Regarding the statement of the Arsenal people, the Liverpool team naturally cannot afford to fall behind.
After such a brilliant season, Rafael Benitez, the only new manager from the Premier League's big four, finally got his bearings, and he hit back at Arsene Wenger's words: "With five games left in the league, we are four points ahead. It's not a big advantage, but we won't allow ourselves to lose the title in such a dominant situation! The battle for Highbury is going to be very tough, but I'm sure we'll be able to get a satisfactory result there! ”
As for what Benitez called a "satisfactory result", it is widely analyzed that the Spanish coach may adopt conservative tactics in Highbury to fight for a draw.
But Chen Xi's statement after that made the media a little confused!
'I hope there will be a lot of Liverpool fans coming to Highbury to cheer us on. Of course, we won't let the fans down. Because they're going to be there to see me break the all-time record and ...... Lock in the championship early! Chen Xi's words can be said to reveal strong self-confidence.
He now has 40 league goals and a team record of 41, and breaking the all-time record means he will have to score at least two goals in this game. What's more, Chen Xi also said that the team is going to lock the championship in advance, and the gap of 4 points is obviously not enough to lock the win, so what he means is to beat Arsenal in Highbury and expand the points gap to 7 points!
Chen Xi's very arrogant statement made the media happy.
This is a provocation by Hongguoguo!
Before the game, just using Chen Xi's words can be a good hype. As for after the game, whether Chen Xi has done it or not, he can continue to fry it!
The media doesn't care who wins or loses, they just want to get what they want in the game!
Howard even said in his column after Chen Xi's statement that he would wait and see how the popular Premier League student slapped himself in the mouth after the game!
No matter what the media thinks, Liverpool fans fully trust Chen Xi. All of a sudden, Liverpool set off a rush to buy tickets for the Liverpool and Arsenal match.
Due to the fact that Liverpool is playing away from home, Arsenal did not allocate many tickets to Liverpool fans. As a result, most Liverpool fans have to go to London in person or ask for tickets online!
Even so, there are very few Liverpool fans who get tickets.
Yang Xu and the others were obviously lucky ones, and he had already asked Chen Xi for tickets a week ago.
For these buddies who "led" him on the road of football, Chen Xi also responded. Xavi Alonso, a few foreign players who have no friends in the local area, were scavenged by Chen Xi.
After Chen Xi's remarks were repeatedly exaggerated by the media, it naturally and inevitably triggered a war of words.
When the battle between Liverpool and Arsenal had not officially started, the scene of saliva pushing this game to a peak.
This war of words has also completely overshadowed the topic of Liverpool's financial crisis.
The senior management of the club really can't wait to hug Chen Xi and kiss him!
Of course, if you want to really make the media forget about Liverpool's financial situation, you need the Liverpool team to keep moving forward and win trophies one after another!
As for these, even if the club has no financial problems, Chen Xi is very happy to do so!
After three days of training at the Melwood training base, Liverpool and his party embarked on a journey to London, for this Premier League "final", Chen Xi and his teammates are bound to win!
Win Arsenal, extend the points advantage to seven points, and lock up the league title early, so that they can concentrate on preparing for the Champions League and FA Cup finals!
