Live broadcast bar on August 15, the first round of the Chinese Premier League, Liverpool 1-1 draw Chelsea, Liverpool local media Echo reporter John Aldridge also published a comment on this, he also said that compared with the wonderful performance of Enzo Fernández, the control ability in the midfield area and the defensive midfield are now in urgent need of reinforcement in Liverpool. In addition, he also praised two substitute generals Doc and Elliot.
— Excerpts from comments–
In retrospect, Sunday afternoon’s share of Chelsea was a fair result.
Liverpool has some good performances, but we can do better. I think our timing against Chelsea is very good. Pochetino is still trying to find his best lineup and starting system, and we have not made good use of this. Having said that, if penalty kick penalty is in our favor, we may take away all three points.
I don’t know why VAR didn’t intervene in Nicholas Jackson’s handball. Whether Jackson intended or not, the ball hit his hand. Obviously. Looking at the monitor does not mean that you have to change the original decision, but at least take a look.
A worrying figure for Sunday’s match is that we only have 35.1% of possession percentage in the whole match. During Klopp’s coaching, only three Premier League matches had lower numbers than this, two of which were against Manchester City.
This data tells you everything you need to know. Liverpool needs a defensive midfield and control ability in this area. Jurgen-Klopp knew, the staff knew, and the fans also knew that this was what we wanted. McAllister played well, but his position was not his favorite. Now the players who take responsibility for the No. 6 player in the team are those who often try to win the second place. We see that Enzo Fernández has completed this work for Chelsea throughout the game. Sobosloy did a good job, but you need someone to do these trivial jobs.
When we were looking forward to winning the game at Stamford Bridge, Klopp was criticized for replacing Salah and Dias with Ben-doc and Elliott, but I think his replacement was correct.
After Elliott and Doc played, our playing style changed significantly. We are faster and seem more likely to score. Elliott did well in the preseason, and it seems that he is beginning to enter the next stage of his career. As for Doc, in some matches, he can play as a substitute to win many points for Liverpool. He is a guy that the defender cannot deal. Whether Salah fades out or becomes a center, Doc must have more competition time this season, because he may become a growing superstar.
Salah was obviously depressed about being replaced, but no one would be guaranteed to play 90 minutes in every match. You can’t play your full potential in every match and become a star. He was tired, and the coach was right to let him end up. As for Salah’s reaction to the replacement, many people have already said it. It’s very simple. He just doesn’t want to end up, but in the future, Salah needs to accept this.
