Focus on Liverpool and the away game at Anfield
The forthcoming opponent to Udinese (“Udinese’s
forthcoming opponent”?) is one of a kind, a team that has made the history of
English and European football, in one of the most suggestive stadia of the
world for its atmosphere, its passion, its red wall and its 60.000 people
singing “You’ll never walk alone”. It’s Liverpool, of course, the 5-time Europe
champions (“European champions”?), 3-time UEFA Cup and Super Cup winners,
18-time England champions, having won 7 FA Cups and 8 League Cups. An
impressive record. A thrilling history and a respectful present, with top-level
players.
Liverpool haven’t made a good start this year: 5 points in six games (either: “Five points in six games” or “5 points in 6 games”?). But in the Europa League they have scored 5 goals to Young Boys (“against Young Boys”?) in Berne, playing with reserves.
The football manager is Brendan Rodgers (“is Irishman Brendan Rodgers”?), Irish, who did great things for Swansea. The “Reds” play offensively: 4-2-1-3. With Pepe Reina as a goalkeeper since 2005, Kelly and Johnson on the wings and the central couple Agger-Skrtel to grant (“to give”?) physical strength and reliability. The strongest and most representative player is in the middle: Steven Gerrard. A life spent with Liverpool (“He’s spent his life with Liverpool”?), he is the institution, the flag of the squad, he who lifted the Champions League (“Champions’ League”?) Cup (and scored one goal) in the magical Istanbul night in 2005, 593 appearances and 53 goals scored. He is helped by one of Rodgers’ trusted players: Joe Allen, who arrived to Liverpool (“who arrived at Liverpool”?) together with the coach from Swansea and has already become irreplaceable, always on the pitch, never been substituted (“and has never been substituted”?). According to the game (??), they are helped by the Turkish player Nuri Sahin, on loan from Real Madrid, or (“and”?) the talented home-grown Jonjo Shelvey. Room for fantasy (“There’s room for fantasy”?) in the front (“up front”?) with the young Spanish Suso, lined up on the right (“who is lined-up on the right”?) in the last couple of games, with the teenager (he’s only 17) Raheem Sterling on the opposite side, then the two strikers who can also play as playmakers: Luis Suarez, one of Juve’s desired players, and Fabio Borini, back to England (“back in England”?) after a brilliant season in Rome.
