Coach, I want to play football!

Bournemouth attacked on the road, which Klopp and Liverpool did not expect.

After falling behind in the first half, head coach Klopp made some adjustments at halftime, which were just tactical tweaks and no substitutions.

In Klopp's view, the goal in the first half was not a big problem. He believed that his team could equalize or even overtake the score in the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, the director's camera showed Ye Qi.

The meaning is obvious. When trailing at home, Ye Qi's killer weapon cannot be used.

But obviously, Klopp has no intention of letting Ye Qi play so soon, because Ye Qi is still wearing a training vest at the moment.

Liverpool, who were lagging behind, did not make any substitutions, but Bournemouth, who was in the lead, made substitutions and adjustments first.

Eddie Howe's active attack achieved certain results, so he immediately changed his style of play at the beginning of the second half.

Center Afobe was replaced, and veteran midfielder Andrew Schulman came up. Schulman comes from the Saints youth training and has previously played for Wolves and Canary Norwich. This is his third season playing for the Cherries.

Of course, this is not important. What is important is that Schulman is good at organizing and passing the ball in the midfield.

Partnered with Wilshere and the defensive-minded Harry Arthur, it was obvious that Eddie Howe was converting offense into defensive counterattack.

The remaining Kareem Wilson has some speed and is suitable for counterattacks. Coupled with Ibi and Ivory Coast winger Garader on the wing, counterattack is indeed a good choice.

In fact, Klopp had thought that Eddie Howe would play defensive counterattack in the away game, or even defend to the death. Unexpectedly, he was manipulated by Eddie Howe. The Bournemouth that has made changes now is the Bournemouth that Klopp imagined.

But it was too late, because now the opponent was ahead.

The Bournemouth formation that changed their style of play is between 433 and 451, depending on whether the team is attacking or defending.

During the offense, through Wilshere's command, Ibe and Galadel went up to play winger and cooperated with Wilson in the center, while Wilshere followed up from behind. This is 433.

While on defense, Schulman took possession of the ball and called Wilshere as well as Ibe and Garader back to form a 451.

Ten minutes after the start of the second half, the home team Liverpool once had a difficult time. Mainly because they didn't expect Bournemouth, who had been more resolute in attacking in the first half, to be even more resolute in the second half!

Of course, this time the decisive thing is not to attack but to defend!

Fifty-five minutes into the game, Klopp couldn't sit still, mainly because the adjustments he made seemed to have no effect so far.

So he set about replacing people.

The camera showed Ye Qi, but Ye Qi did not appear.

The substitute was wing attacker Mane, who replaced young local winger Ojo.

Nineteen-year-old Ojo currently has a rare chance to start in the league with Liverpool, but his performance was not good today.

In fact, the performance of the Red Army's front three was mediocre today. Firmino was considered the best performer, but he only maintained a normal level. Lallana barely passed, and Ocho was not even qualified.

This is the point that dragged down Liverpool's attack today.

Once Firmino drops back to receive the ball, the frontcourt lacks a strong point.

After Mane came on the field, Liverpool also asked Mane to tell Firmino not to frequently retreat to support today, but mainly to open up the situation offensively.

Following him, Wijnaldum boldly stepped in, but Firmino's work was reversed.

In Klopp's view, the three midfield partners he started today include Milanna and Wijnaldum. The strength of the midfielder is definitely enough, not to mention Leiva who is good at defense, so Firmino is not at all A retracement is needed.

Only when the midfielder cannot hold the ball and has no way to deliver the ball, will the forwards in the frontcourt take the initiative to retreat to respond.

But today's three midfield combinations basically do not have this problem. The opponent's Wilshere did perform well, and it is not unreasonable to be hailed as Cesc Fabregas's successor.

It's just that long-term injuries have hindered his development and status. Besides, it may not be easy for these three midfielders even if Cesc Fabregas himself comes, let alone Wilshere.

However, Schulman's appearance put some pressure on Liverpool's midfielder. After all, the opponent's midfielder added an organizer.

But this is not a big problem, the Red Army still needs to attack now.

In the 59th minute, Lallana was blocked on the wing and passed the ball to Wijnaldum who followed up from the center.

As soon as the Dutch midfielder got the ball, Wilshere came forward.

Wijnaldum made a fake move to shake the opponent away, and then immediately passed it back to Milner behind him.

After Milner got the ball, Wilshere continued to attack. At the same time, Schulman and Arthur's positions also moved slightly forward.

At this time, Milner immediately sent a pass directly behind the connection between the opponent's full-back and central defender.

The new Mane rushed up to receive the ball, then cut inside with the ball and entered the penalty area.

A beautiful fake move shook the opponent's central defender away, and he pretended to hit the goal to attract the attention of the opponent's defender, but then he suddenly made a cross from the middle!

This time, Firmino, who did not retreat to respond, appeared where he should have been. Facing Mane's cross, he fired an instep shot!

But the angle of his shot was too good and it was hugged by Bournemouth goalkeeper Boruc.

Firmino shook his head regretfully and gave a thumbs up to Mane who passed the ball.

The Sky Sports commentator said that Ye Qi would probably have scored the ball. After all, in terms of shooting skills, Ye Qi is indeed much more reliable than Firmino.

In the 63rd minute, Lallana took the ball and cut inside, keeping his eyes on the direction of the penalty area.

In the penalty area, Firmino is already in place and is raising his hand to ask for the ball. Mane at the far end is outflanking, while Wijnaldum is following up from behind.

Just when everyone thought Lallana was going to pass the ball into the penalty area, he suddenly kicked it straight to the wing.

Moreno, who came in from behind, received the ball, made a decisive move before the opponent's defensive player could react, and then passed the ball out.

Firmino, who follows up in the middle, takes off to compete for the top, and at the same time, the Bournemouth central defender guarding him also takes off.

No one hit the ball because Moreno's pass was directed towards the back!

Mane received the ball, released it with his chest, and then immediately stretched out his feet to hit the ball without waiting for it to hit the ground!

Goalkeeper Boruc made a save, and although he did not save the ball, Mane's shot did not go in either, but hit the post.

Bournemouth escaped a disaster, but the Cherries' crisis has not been resolved.

The ball hit the goal post and bounced into the penalty area. Bournemouth central defender Francis didn't want to give a corner kick, so he made a big kick towards the front court to make a clearance.

It's just that this clearance kick was not kicked in the right place, and the ball was kicked!

The ball hit Lallana, and Lallana reacted quickly. He immediately stretched out his foot to catch the ball, and then immediately dialed it to the back of the center.

Wijnaldum, who had been preparing for a long time, kept hitting Lallana's pass without stopping and hit it directly!

The ball roared towards Bournemouth's goal again. Goalkeeper Boruc took off but did not touch the ball.

Just when everyone thought the ball was probably there, the ball was slightly higher than the crossbar and flew out of the baseline.

Wijnaldum held his head in regret.
