Liverpool –
Liverpool have to step on the gas from the start of the season in order to defend the title Premier League. If not, the Reds could have the same fate as these four teams.
Liverpool last season won the Premier League for the first time in 30 years, which brought their total title to 19. Liverpool appeared dominant by winning it when the league had seven weeks left and was 18 points ahead.
However, last season’s result is last season’s result and Liverpool’s target is the 2020/2021 Premier League which starts this weekend. Liverpool are obliged to perform trengginas since the first week, like last season when they won two consecutive wins of more than 10 matches.
However, Liverpool are doubtful to be as aggressive as last season, especially if it weren’t for sluggish activity in the transfer market this summer. So far the Reds have only brought in Kostas Tsimikas with a tag of 13 million pounds.
While Thiago Alcantara and Ismaila Sarr, who was said to be getting hooked, was still far from being roasted from the fire. So it’s natural for fans to be anxious about Liverpool’s chance to defend the league title.
Moreover, this is the first time Liverpool have visited the season as defending champions and of course the pressure will be different. Before Liverpool, there have been many defending champions who immediately bought in the following season.
The latest of course is City, which in the last two seasons have been so dominant, but finally lost last season and swallowed nine defeats, the most in Pep Guardiola’s career. Before City, there were Manchester United, Chelsea and Leicester City.
For MU, after last winning in 2012/2013, free fall in the following season with David Moyes. They finished seventh, worst in the Premier League era, 22 points clear of champions City, and David Moyes was sacked before the end of the season.
Then Chelsea, after winning in 2014/2015, also dropped dramatically. Starting from chaos between Jose Mourinho and the players and team staff in the 2015/2016 season, he was finally sacked in December. Chelsea, which was handled by Guus Hiddink, only finished 10th with a distance of 31 points from the victorious Leicester City.
Well, Leicester experienced a similar fate a season later when he was the defending champion. Claudio Ranieri was sacked in mid-season due to poor results from Leicester and Craig Shakespeare as a substitute could only advance the Foxes to 12th, 49 points behind Chelsea as champions!
If you have this, Liverpool Of course you know what to do so you don’t have the fate of Manchester United, Chelsea, Leicester and City.
