The biggest test for Liverpool's first half of the new season is coming. ◎,

This test is intensive schedule.

The League Cup is on the way.

The Champions League is also on the way.

The third-line battle is a test for the thickness of Liverpool's bench.

The cleanup part of Koeman made at the beginning of the season does not expect the players to play the game to have no big problems.

But he actually doesn't know how strong a substitute player like Degen is, and whether the overall strength of most substitutes is is also a huge question.

In the third round of the League Cup, Liverpool challenged Leeds United as a visit, Koeman used most of the substitutes to rotate the main players. He originally thought that Leeds United could not cause trouble for Liverpool, but at Elland Road Stadium, Liverpool was like a loose set on the court, and the running-in between substitutes was really not satisfactory. In addition, Koeman instilled in the team with the skills and tactics of fast passes and cuts, he had high requirements for the team's overall tacit understanding and technical ability. If the substitute lineup level was not up to date, it would be even more difficult to play at a high level.

2:1

Leeds United defeated Liverpool at home, which not only allowed Liverpool, led by Koeman, to suffer its first defeat in the new season, but also led to the embarrassing result of Liverpool being eliminated as soon as they entered the League Cup.

After the game, Koeman's face looked ugly. He did not see the scene he wanted in the 90-minute game.

The strength of many substitutes is too different from that of the main players!

This is also the reason why Liverpool's competitiveness has always been far behind the top giants in the past years.

It is not comparable to 10 80-point substitutes, but Liverpool lacks enough substitutes who can play at any time and are highly expected.

The Reds fans were a little disappointed. Even if the League Cup was useless, they were eliminated as soon as they stepped onto the court. Anyone felt uncomfortable if they changed it.

However, in the context of the double heading of the league and the Champions League, the fans did not blame Koeman too much.

Only Fleet Street finally seized the opportunity to put an insult on Coman. He praised him enough some time ago, and now he can start to depreciate!

Koeman was too lazy to pay attention to the criticism from the outside world. He knew very well that if he gave him Chelsea's bench lineup, the result would definitely be different!

In the 7th round of the Premier League, Liverpool faced the challenge of Hull City at Anfield.

In the time period before the game, Manchester United and Chelsea who forced G4 to start the game first.

Manchester United beat Stoke City 2-0 away, and Ferguson's side conveyed the ambition to defend the league championship to the outside world with a five-game winning streak after losing to Burnley.

Chelsea was upset at Athletico Wigan!

Everything was still normal in the second half, with the score being 1:1, but in the 51st minute, Cech was sent off for a foul in the penalty area with a red card and gave Wigan Athletic a penalty. At this point, Chelsea, who has been stable since the new season, has fallen into a passive move and was scored by Wigan Athletic in stoppage time.

3:1

Chelsea suffered its first defeat in the new season!

Wigan Athletics has set a new history: they have won the G4 giants for the first time!

Liverpool's game will only begin half an hour after the Chelsea game ends.

In the Anfield locker room, Gerald pushed the door and shouted to his teammates: "Tell you good news, Chelsea just lost this round of league! Now they are still the same points as us. But after our game, we will take the top spot in the standings!"

"Yeah!"

The teammates in the locker room yelled excitedly, which was good news and it was hard to say that it would put more pressure on Liverpool.

After all, the Blues' loss is obviously a better result than Chelsea's winning.

Koeman did not mention the game between Chelsea and Manchester United in his pre-match training.

He asked everyone to play step by step, and he still didn't mention the loss of the Midweek League Cup. He let it go and there was nothing to summarize.

Liverpool made his debut at Anfield with his former strong aura.

Hull City appears vulnerable to Anfield when it comes to Anfield.

Qin Xiong, Torres, Gerald, and Kuyt's attack group showed great power. In the process of repeatedly bombarding Hull's defense line, Hull's goalkeeper McHill was humiliated again and again.

He picked up the football from the goal seven times in total!

7:0!

Torres scored a hat-trick, Qin Xiong scored twice, and Gerald and Kuyt each scored one goal.

Anfield swept away the gloom of the League Cup elimination, and Koeman always held his head up and looked extremely confident when he was on the sidelines.

Is it an accident that the League Cup was eliminated?

Even if it is not, it has nothing to do with Liverpool's real strength.

On the league battlefield, the prairie fire set off by Liverpool still showed no sign of extinguishing, and the fire still dyed the sky red.

After defeating Hull City, Liverpool dominated the Premier League standings leader after the 7th round of the new season, inserting the Reds' flag at the highest point in the green world in England.

In another game that was played later, Arsenal defeated his city derby rival Fulham 1-0 away, achieving two consecutive victories after two consecutive losses.

Within G4 Group, Liverpool led Manchester United and Chelsea by 3 points and 6 points ahead of Arsenal!

After the league match, Liverpool moved into the European arena, and the team took a plane to Italy to challenge Florence away.

This season, Fiorentina has a group of stars with good abilities and potential, and they are regarded as teams that may become dark horses in the Champions League.

Koeman never dares to underestimate such a team, because he knows that the more likely the team is to be underestimated, the more likely it is to create miracles!

After massacring Di Bisseni 8-0 in the first round, Liverpool was seen as unstoppable by the outside world, but at the pre-match press conference, Koeman emphasized that the team had forgotten the big victory in the first round.

"There are six games in the group stage, and the two teams with the most points advance to the knockout stage. Whether it wins 1:0 or 5:0 in a game, they only have 3 points. Now Liverpool has 3 points, that's all.

Fiorentina is a strong opponent, and we will face great pressure in the away game, but I have confidence in the players, just like we performed in the league, to show our true level, we have enough strength to take away the victory.”

An Italian reporter retorted and deliberately suppressed Liverpool's momentum and said: "Why won't Liverpool perform like he did in the League Cup? That's also Liverpool."

Koeman nodded after hearing this and said, "Well, what you said makes sense. I will tell the players in the locker room, are they like Liverpool on the day when they were Elland Road Stadium or Liverpool in the past seven league games? Your question is very warning, thank you."
