Revive Liverpool

Chapter 38 Troubled Babel
After Li Nan is busy with these transfers, it will be January 1th. The third round of the FA Cup is about to start, and this round of the FA Cup will usher in a focus battle. Liverpool will be a guest at Old Trafford to start a "double red meeting" with Manchester United.

Neither Kanter nor Navas, whom Liverpool had just introduced, were on the roster for this game, and both sides basically played with the full main lineup.

The referee on duty for this game is Howard Webber, England's No.1 whistler. His law enforcement of this game can be regarded as a manifestation of the importance that the FA attaches to this double-red game.

With only 33 seconds into the game, Liverpool were awarded a penalty by Howard Webber because Red Army defender Agger was defending Red Devils striker Berbatov, and Giggs scored a goal.

Manchester United took a one-to-nil lead at the start.The Liverpool players were a little dissatisfied with Howard Webber's penalty, but there was nothing they could do but continue the game.

However, in the 33rd minute of the game, Gerrard shoveled, and Howard Webber sent off Gerrard, the core midfielder of Liverpool, with a red card.

The Liverpool players were even more annoyed at Webber's penalty. The team had been sentenced to an unnecessary penalty, and now the team's most important player was sent off with a red card. From the Liverpool players' point of view, Webber's penalty in this game was obviously in favor of Manchester United. Liverpool's players were very angry and wanted to put pressure on Webber, but Manchester United's players were protecting the referee.

As the soul of the team, Gerrard also had to miss the team's next three league games because of being sent off with a red card, which will have a great impact on the team's next games.

Gerrard's red card sent off the Red Army had to fight with one less man in the first half, and Liverpool seemed to have no power to fight back in this game.

But because the team's opponent in this game was Manchester United, the Red Army generals did not give up, they were still fighting tenaciously, and played the spirit of the Red Army in the next game.

But helplessly, Liverpool was unable to score until the end, and the score of zero to one was maintained until the end of the game.

With a penalty kick scored in the opening 2 minutes, Manchester United defeated Liverpool [-]-[-] and won the double red meeting.

After the game, the English media generally believed that there was no problem with Gerrard's red card, but the penalty kick awarded at the beginning of the game should not have existed, but the game was over, and no matter what people said, they could not change the fact that Liverpool lost the game.

In an interview with the media after the game, Liverpool coach Pochettino expressed his dissatisfaction with Webber's penalty.

The PS master Babel hidden in Liverpool also rushed to help out on Weibo.

The Dutch striker expressed strong dissatisfaction with Webber, who is known as the "Patron Saint of Manchester United". He believed that the penalty kick did not exist at all, and Gerrard's red card was purely an excessive sentence.

The disgruntled Babel also took revenge: he showed off his skills on Weibo, and ps Weber into wearing a Manchester United jersey to enforce the law, so as to satirize Weber's law enforcement standards that are biased towards the Red Devils.

At the same time he grumbled: "Think of him as one of the best referees? That's a joke!"

However, Babel didn't know whether he was reminded by his agent or he suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem: the FA will never easily bypass him when it comes to dictating the referee.

He then deleted the photo and issued a public apology on Weibo: "If they take my joke seriously, then I am willing to apologize. This is just an impulse to vent after losing an important game. I apologize to you, Weber."

However, it was too late for Babel to remedy the situation.

The microblogging site has decided to temporarily ban Babel, and what is more serious is that the FA quickly intervened in the investigation and finally decided to formally charge him with misconduct: "This allegation is about the comments made by the player and the pictures published on Weibo related to referee Howard Webber."

Babel was given a chance to appeal until 1pm on January 13. If he waives this right, he will become the first player in history to be charged by the FA for misconduct on Weibo.

According to England media, the Liverpool striker may face a suspension.

After hearing the news, Liverpool coach Pochettino immediately defended his players. In an interview, he said: "I think Babel is just expressing his depression of losing the game, and just giving himself a reason to lose the game. He never deliberately mocked the referee. He also quickly deleted the Weibo and apologized for the misunderstanding that his behavior may have caused."

Liverpool king Dalglish also expressed his concern, thinking that it was just a joke by Babel: "Maybe I have been away from football for too long, but let's see if they think it is just humor. He quickly apologized. I don't think he is smart enough. He shouldn't post pictures on the Internet by himself."

Once Babel is suspended, Pochettino will suffer a second blow within a few days.

Gerrard, the team's top card, is already facing a three-game suspension for his red card.

Although Babel rarely gets a chance to play on the team, if such an off-court incident causes staff reduction, it will still be a bit troublesome for Pochettino's tactical arrangements, and it will be another test for Pochettino.

Babel is keen on playing Weibo. He once criticized former coach Benitez on Weibo, but this time he pointed the finger at the referee. The Dutch striker obviously overplayed it.

In this game against Manchester United, Babbel didn't get the opportunity to substitute Maxi Rodriguez until the 60th minute, but he hardly performed well, which once again disappointed Liverpool fans.

This season, Babel has only won 17 appearances in all competitions, scoring a poor two goals and zero assists.

The team's former coach Hodgson was so disappointed in him that he put him in the last place in the striker's seat.

And Pochettino also gave him a chance to prove himself after taking office. As a result, Babel didn't make much contribution on the field, so he rarely got the chance to play.

After the game, Pochettino and Li Nan discussed Babel at the team club.

Both feel that Babel's position in the team has been marginalized, and he rarely gets the chance to play. The team has basically no use for him. Instead, his various activities outside the court will bring a lot of trouble to the team.

So both of them decided to sell him.So Babel also entered the team's transfer list.
