It won’t be easy for Arsenal today.

“I’m not very happy with the atmosphere in the stadium. We need Anfield to be alert not to argue with their manager or anyone else. If you are not in the best shape at the moment, give your ticket to someone else,” Jürgen Klopp was outraged before the game against Arsenal. In fact, criticism of Liverpool’s stadium can be included in the Red Book, because even rivals praise it. They praise and are afraid to play there.

“There’s no noise like Anfield and I love it!” – said the legendary Liverpool Ian St. John. There will be no further statements from Liverpool representatives. But from your rivals, please.

“If I had to choose between dribbling past five players, scoring from 40 meters at Anfield or having sex with Miss World, it would be difficult. Fortunately, I did all this,” boasted Manchester United football great George Best. It is not in vain that Liverpool’s main stadium stood out: its atmosphere surprises many. And yes, the word “atmosphere” will appear frequently in this text. It is simply unique, like Anfield itself.

Liverpool play well in European competitions because they play their home games at Anfield. The craziest stadium. This is the only stadium you don’t want to go to play. But there is a special atmosphere there.”

Wenger’s favorite among stadiums, by the way, is not his native Emirates. “My favorite stadium, given the army of fans that heat up the atmosphere, is Anfield in Liverpool. “You’ll Never Walk Alone” is fascinating.”

“It is more difficult to win at Anfield than at any other stadium in England,” said Cristiano Ronaldo. He has won in many places, so you can trust him.

Liverpool has the full support of the fans in the stadium! This is especially noticeable in the last five minutes of the game,” admired former Real and Blackburn defender Michel Salgado at Anfield. Well, one of the most brilliant quotes belongs to Liverpool’s main antagonist in recent years.

“This stadium has something that cannot be found in any other stadium in the world. As soon as Liverpool score at home, you start to feel like you’re going to concede four more goals in the next five minutes. “You feel small and the Liverpool players dominate you.”

“I always say that the best feeling and the greatest satisfaction one gets is winning at Anfield. This is a classic stadium. With a huge history and a long-standing rivalry between both teams. “Success here brings incredible satisfaction,” Ryan Giggs said. The great Manchester United midfielder did not lie: Anfield is a reliable support for Liverpool. Here we show you how many different clubs did not win there:

Manchester United: since January 17, 2016. Afterwards there were nine games: five losses and four draws; Manchester City won overwhelmingly on February 7, 2021 (4-1). But before that, they hadn’t beaten Liverpool at Anfield since 1981! 34 parties fit into the gap; Arsenal have not taken three points at Anfield since September 2, 2012. Then there were seven defeats and six draws: Newcastle had not won since November 1995! After that there were 22 defeats and five draws; only Chelsea was successful: they obtained three points (1-0) on March 4, 2021, and in the last 20 games they also achieved it: they won seven times, drew eight and lost. five times .

“The energy in the stadium, the history of the club, is very, very compelling. That’s why I think Arsenal should be very happy with this point. Very happy. And yes, I know they were winning by two goals and you could tell they were very comfortable, but in the last 15 or 20 minutes, when you are trying to hold on against Liverpool, you have to be grateful for what you get from this stadium. . And that’s one point: be grateful for it.”

“Anfield is a scary place, but if Arsenal win there, the title will be theirs,” said another legendary Manchester United player, Gary Neville, at the end of the previous season. Nothing has changed since then.
