Chapter 110 A New Liverpool

When Li Qing received the Premier League Player of the Month trophy, he clearly heard a familiar system prompt in his mind.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the title of 'English Premier League Player of the Month' for the first time, and reward 10 points of ability value."

Facing the camera, Li Qing smiled even more brilliantly, and with his handsome face, the staff in charge of filming couldn't help but give Li Qing a thumbs up: "OK! You are really a natural big star."

"Thank you for your good words."

Li Qing smiled calmly.

Afterwards, Klopp stared at the official Premier League reporter, like a father who protects his shortcomings, fearing that the reporter would lead Li Qing into a pit and become the target of public criticism.

Assistant coach Buvac looked at Klopp with a smile, and said with a smile: "Jurgen, why are you staring at others?"

"Really?"

Klopp turned around, put his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "Just now I was just thinking about the league against Arsenal at Anfield the day after tomorrow."

His ears were erected, and he wanted to stretch them to the mouth of the official Premier League reporter.

"Really?"

Bovač smiled meaningfully.

In addition to presenting Li Qing with the trophy symbolizing the Player of the Month, the Premier League official staff also asked some questions. The questions were very simple, asking nothing more than "How does it feel to be a 16-year-old boy to win the Premier League Player of the Month", "You are the first Liverpool player to win the Player of the Month title in the past three years. What do you feel special about?" "What are your prospects for the future?" etc.

Klopp listened to these questions and answers, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.

Kravitz smiled and said, "It seems that Jurgen is very dissatisfied with the Premier League officials for not awarding him the Coach of the Month."

Bovač obviously knows Klopp better. He knows that his friend is not staring at the Premier League official staff because of this. He smiled and walked straight over, calling on the players to start the circle grabbing the ball again.

The Premier League official staff left Melwood after a few simple questions, and the Liverpool first-team players also resumed training.

No one was surprised that the Premier League Player of February was awarded to Li Qing. On the contrary, if it was not awarded, people would feel that there was something shady in the Premier League officials.

Liverpool had four Premier League games in February, namely, home game against Chelsea, away game against Hull City, home game against Tottenham and away game against Leicester City.

Except for the suspension due to a red card in Liverpool's away game against Hull City, Li Qing played well in the other three games, even though he was a substitute.

His seven goals and three assists brought Liverpool three consecutive victories, and he was also the biggest contributor to Liverpool's close pursuit of Chelsea in the standings.

Interestingly, Li Qing is the first player to win the Premier League Player of the Month award as a substitute since its establishment.

News about the official Premier League Player of the Month quickly appeared on social platforms such as INS, Twitter, Facebook, Weibo, and Dongqiudi, and the winner Li Qing became the subject of heated discussion among fans all over the world.

Domestic fans are proud of this.

The domestic media and fans of South Korea and the Sun Country sneered at this. The Korean media and fans do not need domestic media and fans in this regard, because Son Heung-min won the Premier League Player of the Month in September last year, and he became the first Asian player to win this honor.

Guardiola won the best coach of February, and this award was the first time he was elected since he coached Manchester City. Conte, Mourinho and Klopp were nominated with him.

If we look at the results, Klopp has the best performance.

There are certain reasons why Klopp was not awarded the best coach of the month. Liverpool won the four league games in February, not because of his great lineup, but because of Li Qing's contribution of a large number of goals.

This is also the fundamental reason why Li Qing won the best player of the month, but Klopp did not win the best coach of the month.

Of course, Liverpool's local media "Echo" and "Post" questioned the official selection of the Premier League. Professional football has always been about results. Klopp's four consecutive wins are not enough to beat Guardiola who led the team to three consecutive wins?

Klopp, the person involved, did not bother about the official selection of the Premier League. He is currently concerned about the team's upcoming opponent Arsenal.

The first round of this season was held at the Emirates Stadium. The two teams played a thrilling game and Liverpool won 4:3 in the end.

This match moved to Anfield, it is bound to be full of highlights.

In addition, the mainstream European media also took out another focus battle between the two teams as a reference.

That was the 2008-2009 Premier League. Arsenal, the visiting team, tied Liverpool 4:4 at Anfield Stadium with Russian international Arshavin scoring four goals.

As the two classic games were taken out by the media and fans as references, more and more fans paid attention to the Premier League match between Liverpool and Arsenal at home.

Perhaps it was because they liked different teams, different players, or some goals were not agreed with, and more and more fans joined the war of words.

However, the players and coaches of Liverpool and Arsenal were not affected. They all focused their attention and tacitly put it on the game that would start in the near future.

Two days passed in a flash, and the Anfield Stadium, which can accommodate 54,000 fans, was full more than an hour before the game.

Since Arsenal's home jersey is also red, the focus battle at Anfield Stadium was completely transformed into a sea of ​​red.

Li Qing, who was missed by countless fans, still did not appear in the starting list, but Liverpool fans and Li Qing fans were not worried about Li Qing's appearance, because... in their opinion, Li Qing, who was on the bench, was the most powerful Li Qing.

What was unexpected was that the players who started the game in Liverpool had a brand new spirit and performed well overall.

They took the lead in the tenth minute of the game. Mane used his speed to complete a quick ground pass before Monreal's defense was in place. Coutinho attracted the defense and made a wonderful leak. Firmino, who was unguarded at the far point, pushed the ball and scored.

In the 40th minute, Liverpool expanded the score. Left back Milner, Wijnaldum and Firmino made continuous cross passes. Finally, Mane, who received the ball on the right side of the penalty area, shot and scored.

With a two-goal lead, Liverpool coach Klopp was in high spirits. In his opinion, such performance was worthy of Liverpool's jersey.

If it weren't for Li Qing in late January and February, I don't know how many points behind Chelsea we are now.

Is such performance worthy of Liverpool's jersey?

Obviously not!

Liverpool entered the locker room with a two-goal lead. Li Qing felt a little depressed. The team was in a good situation, which basically meant that he would have less time as a substitute.

As expected!

The team was leading by two goals, but Klopp didn't even feel like looking at the bench...
