Before the announcement of the Golden Globes, Henry temporarily ranked first in the selection of the European Golden Boot Awards.

Thierry Henry, who won the European Golden Boot last season, is still trying to defend his title, scoring 15 goals and ranking first with 30 points.

In the top five leagues, the only one who can keep up with Thierry Henry is Inter Milan's Brazilian striker Adriano, who is currently just one less goal than Thierry Henry.

AC Milan's Andriy Shevchenko scored twice in a 6-0 win over Fiorentina to move up to 17th place.

In UEFA's Golden Boot statistics, only goals from the Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and La Liga can be counted as a 2-point base, with other leagues rated 1 or 1.5 respectively due to their uneven level.

This was seen as an outpost for Henry's Ballon d'Or.

In the early morning of December 14, Imperial Capital time.

The results of the European Footballer of the Year, the oldest and most prestigious FIFA World Footballer of the Year award, were first announced.

Ukrainian nuclear warhead Shevchenko, last season's European Cup MVP Deco and Brazilian midfield superstar Ronaldo Jr. occupy the top three spots.

That is, Shepchenko won the Golden Globe in 2014.

Henry only finished fourth.

The superstar, who led Arsenal to the Premier League title and is unbeaten in 49 games, and has been the Premier League's top scorer himself, has not been able to make his way onto the list.

This result undoubtedly caused a lot of controversy, ranking three ahead of Henry, especially Shepchenko, who did not have an advantage.

Needless to say, Thierry Henry's performances in the Premier League in 2004 stole the limelight, and in the summer, he not only led Arsenal to the league title undefeated, but also became the Premier League's top scorer with 30 goals himself.

Even in the recent month when Arsenal have slipped to third in the table, the Frenchman's goalscoring momentum has not slowed down in the slightest, and he is still the top scorer in the Premier League with 15 goals, and at this rate, Henry is likely to surpass last season's goals. Such individual results have to be impressive.

Of course, Thierry Henry's national team results are his personal weakness.

Thierry Henry's outstanding performances in the Premier League have to raise expectations for his performance in the national team, but it is somewhat disappointing that Henry has not been able to save the national team on his own due to the long-term slump of the French national team.

Although Thierry Henry was the joint top scorer for France with six goals in the European Championship qualifiers, the overall performance of the favourites was not convincing in Portugal in the summer, with only two goals against underdogs Switzerland.

After qualifying as the top of the group, the French team then entered a goal drought, and Henry could not be the savior of the team, they could only lose to the dark horse Greece, and finally achieved the Greek myth of super dark horses.

Shevchenko's Ukrainian team is certainly not as strong as France, but Shevchenko is also the absolute core and banner of the national team.

Shevchenko also temporarily became Ukraine's top scorer with four goals in the ongoing World Cup qualifiers in Germany, and two goals in the most recent away game against Turkey helped Ukraine cement their place in the group.

Relatively speaking, Henry's performances for the national team have been much bleaker than his for the club. As two stars with very similar accolades at the club, the national team's record has become another important criterion, and in this indicator, Cheva's performance has once again earned him a good impression score, while Thierry Henry's continued slump in the French team may still be negative!

However, the 2004 Ballon d'Or was selected as the best player of the 0304 season, and in terms of individual performance, Shepchenko was still a little worse than Henry, who was against the sky at the time.

Thierry Henry's performances at Euro 2004 were truly mediocre, and Shevchenko did not appear at all in this tournament at all.

The judges were swayed by too many impressions, and it's no wonder that the result was controversial.

Zhao Yuyu looked at the news and left behind these things that fans were talking about, and the make-up match with Portsmouth was just around the corner, so there was no need to join in the excitement now.

Worrying about the fairness of the Golden Globe Awards is also a matter for the future.

Before the game, Benitez also talked to Zhao Yuyu.

The main thing is to show that Zhao Yuyu is the cornerstone player of Liverpool's revival, so that Zhao Yuyu does not have to worry about his own worries.

But at this stage, the use of Zhao Yuyu should still be restrained, and everything is based on Zhao Yuyu's healthy growth.

Zhao Yuyu agreed.

Benitez would say this, apparently influenced by recent public opinion.

After Rooney won the Golden Boy Award, Zhao Yuyu, who tied up with Rooney for publicity, was indeed tied up for publicity.

After careful communication with his own news consultant, Zhao Yuyu learned that there were many people who saw themselves clearly and said that they were not as good as Rooney.

In order to bundle publicity, after all, Rooney is the leader of the young generation in the mouth of the English media, and Ronaldo is a cut behind.

At this stage, it is no problem to tie up propaganda with him.

Rooney won the Golden Boy Award, and Zhao Yuyu really fell behind in the evaluation of the two.

Some media outlets that support Zhao Yuyu, such as The Echo, have suggested that Zhao Yuyu's appearance time be increased appropriately.

And Benitez, or the club's statement, was also expected by Zhao Yuyu, to be precise, Odin.

After all, Zhao Yuyu's contract period was revised to six years, and Liverpool really didn't need to rush Zhao Yuyu to come up with a more brilliant performance.

If a genius of Zhao Yuyu's level is overused and is useless due to injury, both sides will not be able to accept it.

Especially during the period of injury wave, the club is particularly concerned about Zhao Yuyu's health problems.

Liverpool's bad luck doesn't seem to be over yet, with young goalkeeper Kirkland, who has performed well, actually bruised his wrist in training.

Liverpool have added one more to their injury list.

So, in the game against Portsmouth, Dudek started in place of the injured Kirkland.

Then there was Nunez in the starting right centre-back, with Marcos Alonso and Baros also returning to the starting line-up.

Steven Gerrard almost opened the scoring in the eighth minute, but his shot was saved by goalkeeper Ashdowne.

One minute later, Gerrard took a corner and Nunez crossed in front of goal, but Hamann missed a bye.

Portsmouth also came close to opening the scoring on the counter-attack in the 25th minute when Lualua flicked past Dudek in the box and was shoveled off the touchline by Finnam.

One minute later, Gerrard passed the ball to Nunez at the far post, Nunez's shot was too straight and was firmly held in the arms of the goalkeeper.
