Lord of Greenery

Chapter 513 The Arrangement of Fate

On the way to the game, the Liverpool players chatted away to avoid being distracted by the fans outside.

The most popular topic now is naturally the Manchester City incident.

From the mouths of his teammates, Li Zecai learned of the possibility of Manchester City being severely dealt with again.

They may be forced to relegate to League Two, and they will also be deprived of the results of previous seasons.

"No way, is it really that serious?" Li Ze was a little surprised.

He had heard of the so-called Financial Fair Play Act, but he never knew how powerful it was.

His transfer time is relatively early, and I really don't know what happened in 2020.

On the other hand, the giants built by Jin Yuan, both fans and players, have almost adapted to it.

Even for a club like Liverpool that has never had a large signing fund, after being envious and jealous, they will only think about ways to defeat them, rather than complaining about others.

But looking at the current situation, Manchester City may not be disintegrated from the sidelines.

"They breached the FFP, and they also made false accounts, and they were penalized for two reasons," Milner explained.

"It is said that the championship of the 1314 season will also be cancelled." Henderson interrupted suddenly.

As soon as this sentence was said, the discussion in the car suddenly fell silent.

That season, in a direct match between Liverpool and Manchester City, an obviously not offside ball was blown offside, causing Liverpool to lose in the first round against Manchester City.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is in the second half of the schedule. Liverpool defeated Manchester City in the second round and once held the initiative to win the league championship.

And then there's that famous slip and fall.

A lot of people made mistakes in that game, not just Gerrard.

Head coach Rodgers has a problem with his tactics. He should be more cautious, and even fight for a 0:0 draw. Liverpool will face weak teams in the next two rounds, and they can definitely win by playing normally.

Moreover, Chelsea sent almost a substitute lineup in this game. They put six defenders on the field at the beginning, and obviously only wanted a draw.

Roger's tactical arrangement is very bizarre, and he is still attacking blindly under such circumstances.

Rodgers that season, he also attacked when he was defeated, and in the end he exposed that he could only attack.

This game was one of the three worst performances of Rodgers' Liverpool career.

The other two were the UEFA Champions League group stage surrender to Real Madrid, and Gerrard's farewell battle 1:6 Stoke City.

Mignolet's performance in that game was not very good. At that time, Demba Ba's shot was quite weak, neither in terms of angle nor strength.

It is very likely that Demba Ba himself did not expect such an opportunity. At that time, he was struggling at Chelsea. In this game, Mourinho gave him more responsibilities to harass Liverpool's defenders.

Demba Ba may not have much confidence in the one-shot shot after grabbing the ball, so the final shot was not very high-quality.

Mignolet did not block the ball.

Although he didn't block the ball, no one would blame him for not catching the single shot, but Mignolet obviously lost a chance to become a hero.

In fact, this game is also Henderson's regret.

Not only because he lost the league title because of this game, but also because he didn't play that game.

In the second leg against Manchester City, he was sent off in the closing stages of the game and was suspended for the rest of the game.

Had he been there, Gerrard's defensive pressure might have been much less.

It can be said that that game was not only the regret of Gerrard alone, but also the regret of all Liverpool players at that time.

Most of the players who played for Liverpool at the time have left now.

For example, the loyal Lucas Leiva, for example, Sterling who disgusted Liverpool before leaving, for example, Suarez, who was super god in that season, or for example, who supported Liverpool for many years and was always in the league in that season. Gerrard, the legendary Liverpool captain who performed well but slipped to the end.

There are also many players who have changed from starting starters to substitutes. For example, Mignolet, the starting goalkeeper at the time, is now a rotation player. After that he was no longer...

Now it seems that Henderson has played the main force in Liverpool for so many years, his qualifications and strength are eye-catching.

As a result, he is now the captain of Liverpool.

It is worth mentioning that his career started in Sunderland, and it was Sunderland's head coach Roy Keane who promoted him from the bench to the first team.

That is, Manchester United's famous villain captain.

Shortly after Henderson was promoted, Keane was fired by the club because of his poor grades, and soon Henderson was also loaned out, slowly emerging with his outstanding performance in Coventry.

After a stellar performance at Coventry, Henderson returned to Sunderland due to an injury.

Then under Steve Bruce, another former Manchester United captain, Henderson became a regular and began to make his mark in the Premier League.

At that time, Henderson claimed to be a fan of Manchester United and Giggs, and was once rumored to be with Manchester United.

Rather, it is quite reasonable for Henderson to become a Manchester United fan after being under the command of two former Manchester United captains and crossing the two thresholds of his career.

At that time, Henderson might not have thought that he would become the captain of Liverpool one day.

And now, watching his teammates discussing fiercely, Henderson felt the pressure of Gerrard at that time.

The championship in the 13-14 season is already in the past, and Gerrard, who has also become the past, will pay more attention.

Even if Manchester City's league championship is cancelled, there is a high probability that this championship will not be given to Liverpool.

In the Calciopoli incident, Juventus's two league titles were canceled, and only the last league title was awarded to Inter Milan. The first season's league title was directly vacant.

If Manchester City's championship is really punished, the chances of their championship being canceled this season are not small!

In other words, the most important thing now is to compete for the second position!
Now, Liverpool have the same 62 points as Manchester United, 11 points behind Manchester City.

The 30th round of the league is the double red meeting between Liverpool and Manchester United.

And the current coach of Manchester United is the coach of Chelsea, Mourinho!

The team against was his former home team, Manchester United!

Henderson seemed to feel his destiny somewhere.

This time the double red meeting is different from that time against Chelsea. He will not be absent but will start as the captain of Liverpool!
Liverpool, he and his team-mates, are going to fight that slim possibility.

Maybe Liverpool can't beat Manchester United...

Maybe Manchester City won't be stripped of the title...

Maybe Manchester City won't be fined at all...

But at least, Henderson sees hope, the coveted Premier League championship, it seems that he can really touch it at this moment.
