Strong Waist
Chapter 19 Facing Liverpool
The Champions League groupings are confirmed, and Arsenal's Group H directly becomes the death group.
This is not good news for Arsenal. The Champions League was full of intensity from the beginning.
Whether it is Paris Saint-Germain or Dortmund, these are opponents that are difficult to deal with. For this reason, Arsenal need to invest more energy in the Champions League.
Lucky previously said that it doesn't matter who he kicks. This is a way of boosting morale. But if he can play more relaxedly, who wants to work hard and play hard mode every game?
However, the grouping has been determined and cannot be changed at all.
What Arsenal need to do now is to ensure their own condition, study the opponent's game play, etc.
But before the Champions League, Arsenal needs to face the fire of the league.
In the third round of the Premier League, Arsenal faced Liverpool away.
In the third round of the league, they faced a challenge from a strong enemy.
Liverpool's record in the first two rounds was one win and one draw. They encountered Watford's sniper away from home and failed to win the first round.
Liverpool obviously failed to find their form in the first round.
This was still the case in the second round. Despite a small 1:0 victory over Crystal Palace, the overall state still failed to return to its peak level.
After experiencing the European Cup and the America's Cup, the main players looked quite tired.
This also makes the outside world feel more that Arsenal will win the game.
After all, judging from the first two rounds, Arsenal's performance was more stable and efficient.
However, Klopp also said before the game that Liverpool had completed the adjustment of their state, and winger Chen Man was in hot form and would be their most advantageous offensive arrow.
No one knows how much moisture is contained in Klopp's words, or it may be a smoke bomb.
After all, Chen Man is not a core player in Liverpool's lineup. Salah is the key to leading this team to victory.
Even in terms of tactical status, Chen Man is even lower than Phelps. In this case, it is difficult to agree with Klopp's words.
But even so, Arsenal needs to consider this issue carefully.
At the same time, Liverpool were also studying Arsenal's tactics.
However, it is indeed difficult to adapt to Arsenal's sudden change in play style.
They tried to use Tottenham's playing style as a point of entry, but found that Arsenal's tactics were slightly different in details, and it was this difference in details that made the whole thing completely different.
To sum up, Arsenal's center retracement and Tottenham's center retracement are completely different things.
As the outside world is talking about this game, the game day is getting closer and closer.
On Friday, Arsenal first arrived in Liverpool to conduct training in Liverpool.
On the one hand, it is to adapt to the local atmosphere, and on the other hand, it is to prevent the team from traveling and traveling on the day of the game.
A day of training and adequate rest allowed Arsenal to recharge their batteries and be able to better cope with the game.
On August 19, the Arsenal team arrived at the famous Anfield Stadium.
They entered the stadium amid cheers from Arsenal's traveling fans.
The atmosphere has become serious and solemn.
The war is about to break out.
"Next is the starting lineup."
After Mourinho arranged the tactics, he announced the starting list.
At this moment, Lukaku and Giroud's hearts tightened.
Both of them looked at Mourinho.
Although Mourinho said that he would give Giroud more opportunities to play and even start.
But with different tactical styles, they also need to be rotated.
"Martinez, Robertson, Hummels, Jimenez"
The names of the main players appeared without any surprise, but as the starting lineup ran out, they became even more nervous.
Finally, Mourinho looked up and said; "Giroud!"
Following Mourinho's voice, Giroud clenched his fists secretly.
Everything has gone very smoothly since he joined Arsenal.
Whether it is integration or running-in, and being able to start in the third game, this is undoubtedly very happy news.

On the other hand, Lukaku was a little sad.
However, he quickly put on the substitute's vest and quickly followed the coaching staff out of the locker room.
The main starting players followed Lucai to the player tunnel.
Players from both sides stood on both sides of the tunnel. There was no communication between the two sides, and there was a smell of gunpowder in the air.
While Luc Kai was adjusting the captain's armband, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen Man behind him.
Lucky didn't quite believe in the smoke bombs fired by Klopp.
Although Chen Man's ability is very strong, he is by no means the core material.
This guy's character is too reckless and his state is extremely unstable. Unless the head coach has a headache, Chen Man will be the core.
This kind of core will either explode in performance or lead the team directly into the quagmire.
Klopp is obviously not a fool, and he must have some thoughts behind his words.
But Lucky and Arsenal just can't figure it out.
No one knows what kind of gourd Crump has in mind.
"Ready to appear!"
At this time, the referee Kevin Friend in front turned his head and shouted.
The two captains, Lucky and Henderson, shouted almost simultaneously to help boost the morale of their teammates.
The two teams came together.
Liverpool fans gave the home team fierce cheers, while Arsenal were booed.
Entering the stadium with boos, especially in a famous stadium like Anfield, the pressure is not ordinary.
But fortunately, Arsenal's lineup is full of experienced players, so there will be no stage fright.
Both sides completed the pre-match ceremony.
The captains of both sides guess.
Arsenal won the ball first.
"This is the third round of the 2017\\/2018 Premier League season. After the two rounds of the league schedule, the third round finally ushered in the highlight. Arsenal challenged Liverpool away. The performance of these two teams in the league has always been It’s surprising and we look forward to a great performance from both teams in this game!”
After Paul Mawson finished speaking, Dixon added:
"Both teams understand each other very well, so their playing style will not slow down. Facts have proved that Arsenal was able to effectively deal with Liverpool's tactical system last season, and this also means that the two teams need to continue to Running and pressing constantly.”
"I believe this will be a wonderful battle!"
Liverpool is a team that emphasizes high-pressing + defensive counterattacks.
When Arsenal deal with Liverpool, they will also use this head-on tactic to crush it.
With the same playing style, the rhythm of the two teams will inevitably become faster.
And who can score first may be the turning point of the game.
Players from the two teams stood in their respective halves. They were already old rivals and were very familiar with each other.
They couldn't help but be nervous about this.
Both Arsenal and Liverpool know that what follows is a tough battle!
The cheers grew louder.
Soon, referee Kevin Friend ran out of the center circle and blew the whistle, and the game officially started.
Giroud also kicked off the ball quickly.
At this time, commentators from all parties are also analyzing the starting lineup.
Liverpool (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Karius.
Defenders: Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Gomez.
Midfielder: Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum.
Forwards: Salah, Firmino, Chen Man.
Arsenal (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.
Midfielder: Kante, Wilshere, Lucky.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Giroud, Mane.
Liverpool's main goalkeeper Alisson is injured and Karius comes on as a substitute. This may be a variable.
Arsenal gave up Lukaku and used Giroud, who had just joined.
The existence of these variables also makes this game more full of expectations.
And just as the commentator said, once the game started, the two sides strangled each other crazily.
The midfield has become the most intense battlefield.
Both sides were fighting fiercely and organizing attacks quickly.
In just five minutes, both sides had already shot a shot.
Arsenal's shot was slightly higher than the crossbar, while Liverpool's shot was within the Volkswagen goal frame. If it hadn't been for Martinez's hard save, it would have probably resulted in the goal being conceded.
This attack also shocked Arsenal into a cold sweat.
But the two sides still didn't pause at all and continued to fight in a mass.
