"Let's look at the list of both sides.>
Arsenal 433.
Goalkeeper: Szczesni.
Defenders: Sania, Koscheerney, Virmulen, Jenkinson.
Midfielders: Nasri, Flynnon, Ramsey.
Forwards: Walcott, Van Persie, Al Shavin.
The new summer aid Gervinho was sent off a red card in the last game and was suspended in this round. Alexander Song, who also maliciously stepped on his opponent in the last game, was punished by the FA after the game, and he was also suspended in this game.
This makes Arsenal's lineup in this game very worrying, and their midfielder is too thin!"
"There's no way! Wenger has so many cards in his hand, and only so many can play. In other words, if he doesn't send Walcott and Arshavin to the game but chooses to fill the midfield with an average substitute, then Arsenal has no hope of winning at all. Now, Arsenal has at least a chance of victory. Although it's very slim, it's enough for Wenger to take a risk!"
“Haha, I hope Wenger’s adventure has been thought about calmly.
Let's take a look at the Red Army's arrangements in this game.
Liverpool 4312.
Goalkeeper: Reiner.
Defenders: Johnson, Scotter, Thiago Silva, Baynes.
Midfielder: Mascherano, Alonso, Gerald, Lucas.
Forward: Suarez, Qin Xiong.
Koeman unexpectedly arranged Lucas to the roster, but in the summer warm-up match, Lucas was in good shape.
But today at the Emirates Stadium, Liverpool sent two defensive midfielders, Mascherano and Lucas. I wonder if Koeman is a little too cautious."
"Keman is definitely not as simple as looking at this game. As he said at the pre-match press conference yesterday, Liverpool also needs time to adjust."
"Okay, let's watch the situation of both teams in the game."
Wenger and Koeman were both sitting in the coaching seat waiting for the game to begin.
The two head coaches have different expectations for the game.
Koeman naturally wants to see the improvement of the team's transformation.
In fact, no matter how Liverpool's midfield formation changes, the most aggressive offensive point in the new season is the full-back!
Wenger hopes that the young man can take the lead and surprise him.
With the referee's whistle sounded.
The competition has begun.
After Arsenal lacked Fabregas, the team's smooth operation declined to a certain extent.
Especially the rhythm of offense and defense, this subtle change that is difficult to see at all with the naked eye.
The formation that Liverpool has set in position defense makes Arsenal difficult to move forward.
The existence of two defensive midfielders in the backcourt alone makes it difficult for Arsenal to successfully pass and cut.
Mascherano and Lucas can cover the entire midfielder area. With Alonso's dispatch in the play, Liverpool's defense is very fierce on the midfielder!
That's right, it's cruel, not tough.
Because when encountering bulldozers like Yaya Toure, sometimes Mascherano and Lucas seem to be helpless.
But that is not a situation that can be encountered often.
In the third minute of the game, Ramsey passed the ball to Nasri in the frontcourt.
Nasri, who was absent-minded and determined to transfer to Manchester City, tried to break through Baynes after stopping.
He failed and was directly intercepted by Baynes!
After intercepting the ball, Baynes directly passed the ball to Gerald in the middle.
Gerald passed the ball diagonally to the right with his back to Ramsey.
Johnson assisted up.
He dribbled through the half with great strides, and Al Shavin was completely unable to hinder him.
Tsar Arshavin, two years ago, has declined significantly in the past six months and has no longer gained Wenger's trust. If Gervinho had not been suspended, he would not have had the opportunity to play.
After Johnson dribbled through halftime, Alonso, who followed in the middle, was waiting for his pass near the center.
Johnson decisively passed the ball to Alonso, who sent the ball to Qin Xiong's feet with another diagonal pass.
Qin Xiong leaned against the front midfielder and saw Sania and Arsenal young player Flynn Pong rushing towards him.
He immediately knocked the ball across the middle.
Gerald, who was inserted into the back, stopped the ball and found that he was in front of him, so he adjusted his foot and shot from a long time!
The football flew over from the Arsenal defender, and Szczesny failed to touch the football, but the football also rose above the crossbar.
Liverpool's attack threatened, but it was still a little short of scoring.
Arsenal tried to speed up the pace of the game. In the 8th minute of the game, Walcott broke through Baynes with an individual level on the right, but Baynes did not let the opponent cut into the inside. The little tiger on the outside made a cross and failed to pass the Thiago Silva's level.
The Brazilian central defender kicked Walcott's half-high ball with his feet towards the frontcourt.
After stopping the ball, Qin Xiong turned around and spiked the ball over Sarnia, and then rushed forward to the front dribble.
After he arrived at the front of the penalty area, he kicked the ball with a spin on the outside and sent the ball into Arsenal's penalty area.
The football bypassed Coscheerney, and although the French central defender fell to the ground and used a tackle to destroy the ball, he eventually failed!
Suarez, who was behind Koscheerny, kept shooting directly without stopping.
The football flew obliquely, and Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny fell to the ground and threw himself across the ball with his arm.
Vermullen returned to the goal and kicked the ball out of the sideline with a big foot.
Suarez sighed to the sky, then turned around and gestured to Qin Xiong with a thumbs up.
"After the opening, Liverpool's operation was obviously smoother than Arsenal, and the offense could create more opportunities. It seems that Arsenal's game today is incredible."
Sky Sports commentator Jamie Redknapp just finished speaking.
In the 12th minute of the game, Gerald dribbled through Ramsey in the right front in the midfield. After the breakthrough, he led Arsenal's midfield defense to this side of the right.
Then he passed the ball back to Johnson, who was on the wing, who passed the ball across the middle.
Alonso also made a shot at the opening point of the center circle, and a diagonal pass moved the ball to the left side of the frontcourt.
When Sarnia thought Qin Xiong would go to the reception, she didn't expect Qin Xiong to run directly to the area in front of the penalty area.
It was Baynes who rushed up from behind and responded to Alonso's transfer ball before the football rolled out of the sideline.
After he took the ball to the inside, he seemed to be trying to pass the ball to Qin Xiong, so Sania focused on blocking the inside.
But Baynes' next step to dribble is to go straight to the bottom line!
After reaching the bottom line, Baynes made a powerful pass and swept the ball into the penalty area.
Chapter completed!
