Manchester United suffered a 1-6 home defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool suffered a 2-7 away defeat to Aston Villa.
The two disastrous defeats of the Red Army and the Red Devils in the same round have sounded the alarm for the entire Premier League.
But this round also saw Chelsea beat Crystal Palace 4-0, Newcastle beat Burnley 3-1 at home and Arsenal beat Sheffield United 2-1 at home.
According to many famous Premier League football critics, the strength of the Premier League big8 does have an advantage.
This is obvious.
But this advantage is not so strong that they can ignore the existence of competitors.
The structure of the Premier League's Big8 is obviously different from that of the La Liga duo.
Not only because the competition is too fierce, but more importantly, if the big8 team relaxes a little, it will immediately be doomed, just like Liverpool who lost to Aston Villa away from home in this round.
The strength of Klopp's team is obviously crushing Aston Villa, but at the tactical level, Klopp is trying.
He wanted to resort to an offside tactic.
A very important point is that the running of Liverpool players consumes too much.
Anyone who is familiar with Klopp will be familiar with the fact that when he coached Dortmund, the reason why it suddenly collapsed at the peak moment was that the players' physical fitness and tactical execution were the key.
Now, he wants to try to use offside tactics to reduce the pressure and burden faced by the defense.
The most typical example is that in the third round against Arsenal, when Liverpool's defenders faced the last pass from the Gunners, what they wanted to do immediately was not to block the opponent's passing and offensive routes.
, but caused offside.
But this will inevitably bring about a phenomenon, which is players' discomfort.
Facing Arsenal at home, Liverpool defeated the Gunners 3-1, which made Klopp feel that there is a lot to do.
But in the away game against Aston Villa, this discomfort completely broke out.
The specific manifestation is that the four people on the back line have very inconsistent ideas. Some people are pressing forward and trying to cause offside, but some people are still returning to defense as before, causing the offside attempt to fail.
So this happened, with Liverpool being scored over and over again by Aston Villa.
After the game, Liverpool's legendary defender Carragher made it clear in his column that he strongly disagreed with Liverpool's offside tactics, which he believed greatly exposed the loopholes in Liverpool's backline and right defense.
Liverpool's disastrous defeat saved Aston Villa, allowing this team that invested heavily to finally feel proud.
And this battle also exposed a true situation in the Premier League.
The competition is really fierce!
The fans enjoy watching it very much, because many times they feel a strange pleasure when they see a strong team suffer an upset defeat.
What truly represents the pinnacle of the Premier League in this round is Leeds United's 1-1 draw with Manchester City at home.
The game between the two sides was extremely high-quality, and their targeted tactics were back-and-forth. Each team played well for half of the game.
In the first half, Manchester City took the lead in scoring in the 17th minute. The scorer was Sterling. Then they launched a wave of attacks against Leeds United, forcing the White Rose to defend and parry.
But the situation took a turn for the worse in the second half. Leeds United took advantage of Manchester City's loopholes and launched a counterattack. In the 59th minute, Haaland scored, and then there was a tremor in front of the Manchester City goal.
But in the end, the two sides shook hands and made a draw, and no one was able to kill their opponent.
There were not many goals in this game, but it was recognized as the most exciting and intense matchup with the highest technical and tactical level in this round of the league.
…
In the fifth round of the Premier League, Liverpool continued the disappointment after the previous round's disastrous defeat and drew with Everton 2-2 away from home.
Chelsea drew 3-3 with Southampton at home.
Manchester City defeated Arsenal 1-0 at home with Sterling's goal.
Newcastle drew 1-1 at home with Manchester United.
Tottenham drew 3-3 at home with West Ham United.
When the strong teams all suffered draws or had difficulty winning, Leeds United defeated Wolves 4-0 at home.
The Wolves have always had a tradition that they never lose when they are strong and never win when they are weak.
But this time in front of Leeds United, this team controlled by Chinese capital, finally bowed its head.
Sancho passed and shot, and goals from Valverde, Militao and Ashraf helped Leeds United defeat their opponents at home.
Haaland did not score or assist this time, so Gao Shen ridiculed him on social media after the game and fell into a 90-minute "scoring drought."
…
Premier League Round 6.
Haaland, who fell into a scoring drought in the last round, finally let out a big sigh of relief this time in the away game against Aston Villa.
The two sides played evenly in the first half, and Leeds United had no good way to defeat the opponent's defense.
But in the second half, as the Aston Villa players' physical fitness declined, Haaland received passes from teammates in the 55th, 67th and 74th minutes respectively, shooting from left to right, scoring three goals in a row for Leeds United, and performing a hat trick.
.
After experiencing a goal drought, Majin Buu finally exposed his bloody fangs again.
In this round, Manchester City drew 1-0 with West Ham United away from home, Manchester United drew 0-0 at home with Chelsea, Liverpool reversed Sheffield United 2-1, Newcastle defeated Wolves 1-0 away from home, and Tottenham defeated Burnley 1-0 at home.
Enli.
Arsenal lost 0-1 at home to Leicester City.
What is completely unexpected is that after 6 rounds of games, Manchester United has not won a game, only scored 3 points, ranking 17th in the Premier League, while Sheffield United, Burnley and Fuller in the relegation zone
Hmm, both are 1 point.
Leeds United leads the Premier League standings with five wins and one draw.
Haaland even topped the scorer list, showing Leeds United's tyrannical strength.
…
Just when everyone thought that Manchester United had been pushed to a dead end, no one could have imagined that the Red Devils would go one step further in the seventh round and lost to Arsenal 0-1 at home.
As Fulham defeated West Bromwich Albion 2-0 in this game, Manchester United fell into the relegation zone at the end of this round, ranking 18th.
Teams such as Leeds United, Manchester City, Tottenham, Newcastle and Chelsea have all won.
Manchester United's situation is really embarrassing now!
No one could have imagined that the mighty Red Devils Manchester United would fall into the relegation zone, which definitely shocked everyone.
As the team's performance declined, doubts about Solskjaer also arose.
For example, Van der Beek.
This star, who cost Manchester United a whopping 100 million euros, has actually lost his place in the last few games.
As for Ndombele, Solskjaer would rather use veteran Matic than give him a chance. This makes Ndombele himself full of complaints.
Rodrigo failed to score a goal and did not perform at the level that a 70 million euro striker should have.
Osimhen, also a 70 million euro player, from Newcastle, has performed very well this season. His goals are not many, but his tactical effect is very obvious.
Newcastle's entire offense is almost organized around Osimhen. Although he has only played 7 rounds, this player's tactical role and personal ability have been recognized by everyone.
In contrast, Rodrigo failed to shoulder the burden of Manchester United's frontcourt and center. In the competition with the opponent's central defender, he was obviously at a disadvantage. Coupled with the flaws in the entire midfield and frontcourt, Manchester United's offense suffered greatly.
The problem.
After 7 rounds of games, Leeds United ranked first, Tottenham Hotspur, who are in hot form this season, ranked second, Guardiola's Manchester City and Carlo Ancelotti's Newcastle ranked third respectively with the same points.
Third and fourth place.
This scene had a huge impact on the Premier League and even the entire European football world.
As we all know, the first teams of Tottenham and Newcastle are now operated by senior officials, and the entire training system is also controlled by senior teams behind the scenes. Mourinho and Ancelotti are responsible for the specific execution.
Now, both teams have significantly improved their strength.
Many people originally thought that Tottenham had a chance to break into the top four, but they never thought it would come so quickly.
Who would have thought that Tottenham would be in such good shape in the new season?
Especially Son Heung-min, it's like he's on drugs.
Abraham was able to shake off the depression he suffered at Chelsea, and he was able to play in Europe's first line with great pride, even becoming a top center forward. However, this player only cost Tottenham 40 million euros.
How can this make the wealthy and powerful teams in Europe, who are all struggling to pursue centers, feel embarrassed?
And Newcastle.
Whether it's Ancelotti's coaching or this summer's signings, the Magpies have reached a very high level.
It goes without saying that Osimhen, the high-priced center, is worth the money. Bruno Guimarães shines in the defensive midfielder position, McAllister, Willock, winger Rafinha, and central defender Botman
and Brehmer, both performed well above their worth.
Even head coach Carlo Ancelotti was full of praise for the team's performance. At the same time, he ranked the team fourth in the Premier League, far exceeding pre-season expectations. He also thanked the team behind the scenes for their hard work.
Everyone knows that Ancelotti is thanking Gao Shen.
Whether it's Tottenham or Newcastle, whether it's signings or formations, their sophisticated operations are breathtaking and make the entire European football world jealous.
The season has just begun, and many wealthy teams have come to seek cooperation.
These include Juventus, Milan, Dortmund, La Liga's Atletico Madrid, etc., not to mention the Premier League. For this group of wealthy teams, they spend a sum of money every year to hire experienced teams to ensure the team's
Results, this is simply not a good deal.
However, Gao Shen politely declined, saying that the current manpower is limited and he cannot promote the business quickly, so he still focuses on serving current customers and may cooperate with other teams in the future if there is an opportunity.
This makes many teams that come to visit feel very depressed.
I offered to send money to my door, but was rejected. Who in the world has ever encountered such a thing?
Without comparison, there is no harm.
The most depressing one is Tracliffe.
He would never have imagined that Manchester United would fall into the relegation zone in the new season. Could it be that all the transfer fees burned were thrown into the English Channel?
Looking at the standings again, the top four teams were all teams that cooperated with Gao Shen, and three of them were managed by Gao Shen himself, which made him feel a little regretful.
