Revive Liverpool

Chapter 65
In the Chelsea away game against Stoke City at the same time as this game, Chelsea also scored a draw.

Manchester City, ranked fourth in the Premier League, beat Sunderland [-]-[-] in this round and scored three points.

In this way, Manchester City surpassed Chelsea and became No. 3 in the Premier League, leading Chelsea by one point.

Originally, Liverpool hoped to surpass Chelsea in this game.

Ran from No.5 in the Premier League to No.4 in the league and entered the Champions League.

However, Liverpool can only accept a draw like Chelsea. It is indeed a pity that they failed to achieve Li Nan's goal of entering the Champions League.

However, there are still games that can be remedied. This is only the 31st round of the league, and there are still 7 rounds before the end of the Premier League, which is enough for Liverpool to enter the Champions League.

Liverpool scored a draw against West Bromwich Albion. Although the record of winning against West Bromwich Albion was lost, they still did not lose after all, and they still scored a point.

Moreover, the head coach of the opposing team is the former head coach of his own team and knows Liverpool very well, so a draw is acceptable.

It is also acceptable for the West Bromwich Albion team. After all, the team's opponents have been invincible by themselves, and it is acceptable to play a draw now.

After achieving a draw with Liverpool, Hodgson came to West Bromwich Albion and achieved a record of one win and five draws in a few games.

These include draws with League No.2 Arsenal and League No.5 Liverpool.

They defeated Birmingham, the winner of the League Cup this season, and maintained an unbeaten record.

And this series of undefeated battles also helped West Bromwich Albion out of the relegation zone. Hodgson's coaching at West Bromwich Albion can be said to have had an excellent start.

Perhaps Hodgson is really only suitable for those little-known Premier League teams. He can always lead these small teams to achieve good records, complete the task of relegation, and even compete in the Europa League.

When he came to the giants Liverpool, he was really "acclimatized".

Recalling that when Hodgson was coaching Inter Milan, his situation was not much better, and it was always difficult to secure the coaching position.

But Liverpool has no time to discuss how Hodgson's coaching career in Liverpool is, and whether he is suitable for a team like Liverpool. After all, all this is over and in the past.

……

During the last international match day, the team and some Asian clubs finalized Liverpool's Asian tour plan for this summer.

This time the Asian pre-season tour, Liverpool's first stop will be Guangzhou, China, and the opponent will be Guangzhou Sunny Spring Club.

Then there will be a friendly match in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, before heading to Seoul, the capital of South Korea.

The last stop of the Asian tour will be in Shanghai, and the opponent will be the Shanghai East Asia Football Club.

And this last match against the Shanghai East Asian team was facilitated by Li Nan, the chairman of Liverpool.

Because Liverpool and Shanghai are friendly cities, the mayors of the two cities also hope that Liverpool can play a friendly match in Shanghai.

Both of them also tried their best to facilitate this matter, which can be regarded as strengthening the cultural exchanges between the two sister cities.

The secretary-general of the SH City Football Association also wanted to recommend Shanghai Shenhua to Liverpool as an opponent in a friendly match instead of Shanghai East Asia.

For Shanghai, although Shanghai East Asia is still in the Chinese Premier League at this time, it can be regarded as a professional league team.

But not the Shanghai Shenhua team in the same city. The Shanghai Shenhua team is fighting in the Chinese Super League. How to say, it is certain that the Shenhua team is stronger than the East Asian team. Compared with the two teams, Shenhua and Liverpool must play better.

And as a veteran team in Shanghai, there must be more Shenhua fans in Shanghai now, and the fans should be more enthusiastic.

Moreover, for the Liverpool team, it is reasonable to say that the opponents of Liverpool's summer Asian tour have no strong opponents, and if they find another team that is still in the second tier of China's league, the opponents in the summer friendly match will be even less powerful.

But looking for an opponent in a friendly match should still have some strength.

Compared with a team that is too weak, it will not be effective for Liverpool. It cannot detect some problems that may exist in the team, and it will not have any effect on promoting the integration of newly introduced players and the team during the summer transfer.

But Li Nan insisted on playing against the Shanghai East Asia team, and there was nothing he could do, and in the end it was the only way.

In the end, the game between Liverpool and Shanghai East Asia was finalized.

After finding the opponent for the summer Asian tour, the remaining specific work of the Asian tour will be left to the professionals.

IMG Group is in charge of matters related to the team's Asian tour. The two parties have cooperated on matters related to the Asian tour before, and the cooperation between the two parties is quite pleasant, and there are no problems.

After finishing their summer tour of Asia, it's time for Liverpool to return to the Premier League.

4月11日晚间20点00分，2010-11赛季英超联赛第32轮的比赛迎来本轮联赛的最后一场比赛，利物浦坐镇主场面对新贵曼城。

This game is undoubtedly the focus of this round of the Premier League. The outcome of this game will determine who can sit on the No.4 throne of the Premier League after this round of the league.

Chelsea's previous Premier League game has been won.

If Liverpool can beat Manchester City in this game, Liverpool will lead Manchester City by one point, push Manchester City out of the Champions League, and be able to enter the top four of the league for the first time this season.

And if it is a tie or Liverpool loses at home, the gap between Liverpool and Manchester City will continue to be maintained at one point, but it may also widen the points gap, and Manchester City will continue to sit on the No.4 throne of the Premier League.

Of course, it is still difficult for Liverpool to win this game. Many main players such as Gerrard, Agger, Kelly and Glenn Johnson were unable to participate in the game due to injuries.

Although Gerrard's operation has been completed for a long time, and he is already undergoing rehabilitation training.

But out of concerns about Gerrard's health, Li Nan discussed with head coach Pochettino to postpone Gerrard's joint training with the team and let him do more rehabilitation training to ensure that he will not relapse and be reimbursed for the season like the original time and space.

In this game, many Liverpool stars came to Anfield today to cheer for the team, such as Liverpool's "King" Kenny Dalglish.

These celebrities came to Anfield Stadium, hoping that the team can sweep away the shame of the first half of the season, win this game, and let Liverpool re-enter the Champions League.
