McAllister s absence has caused concerns: Liverpool s away game to Newcastle s key midfielder, the cause of the old injury needs to be solved

In the second round of the Premier League, Liverpool's away challenge to Newcastle United is about to begin, but the news before the game made the hearts of Reds fans hang up. It is reported that McAllister, who performed well in the first round, was not listed on the 21-man roster that Liverpool arrived in Newcastle, which undoubtedly cast a shadow on the team's midfield strength.

McAllister shined in the first round of the Premier League Liverpool beat Bournemouth 4-2. He started and fully demonstrated his comprehensive ability in the midfield position. He not only actively fought on the defensive end, contributed many key steals, effectively blocked Bournemouth's offensive advancement, but also played an important role in offensive organization. He used a precise assist to help his teammates score, showing his excellent passing vision and footwork. It was not until the 72nd minute that head coach Slott replaced him out of consideration for his physical fitness and physical condition. You should know that due to injury at the end of last season, McAllister had questions about his first round, and Slot has always been cautious about his physical condition. Therefore, being able to perform in the first round has already made fans look forward to his performance in subsequent games.

Surprisingly, at the pre-match press conference, Slott did not mention McAllister's injury problem. New player Flynnon was the only player to be confirmed to be absent. Although Bradley has returned to training, his appearance is still doubtful. But when Liverpool players checked in the hotel, McAllister's name was not on the 21-man roster, which was really confusing. For a moment, speculations about the reason for his absence were rampant. Some fans noticed that McAllister's wife is about to give birth soon. From a human nature, this may well explain why he failed to go with the team this time. After all, when players face such a major event in their lives, family factors are often put first, after Liverpool's Heraffenberg had missed the Community Shield due to the birth of their children. Of course, some people are worried that the old injury will recur, but so far, there is no definite news to confirm this.

McAllister's absence should not be underestimated for Liverpool. In the first round of the game, regular midfielder Heraffenberg was absent due to suspension. Sobosloy and McAllister's midfield partner played an important role in the game. The two attacked and defended one by one, cooperated tacitly, and controlled the midfield situation for the team. Now that McAllister is absent, the midfield's squad has to be re-adjusted. If Bradley is unable to play, Slott's choice in the midfield position will become relatively limited, and Sobosloy may need to take on more responsibilities, both responsible for the offensive organization and strengthen defensive interception. Players such as Curtis Jones may get more opportunities to partner with Sobosloy in the midfield, but this also means that the midfield running-in needs to start over. It is still unknown whether the level of cooperation between them can reach an ideal state in a short period of time.

From the perspective of the team's overall tactical system, McAllister's absence may affect Liverpool's control and creativity in the midfield to a certain extent. He can create more opportunities for the team's offense through flexible running and accurate passing on the court. At the same time, he can quickly return to defense when he turns from offense to defense and participate in the construction of the defensive system. Now that he is not on the court, the team's connection and conversion in the midfield may cause some lag, and the offensive rhythm may be disturbed to a certain extent.

This match against Newcastle United is a tough battle for Liverpool. Newcastle United performed well last season, the team was strong, and had strong home advantage and fan support at home. In the absence of McAllister, a key player, it is undoubtedly more difficult for Liverpool to score all three-pointers away. But football matches are full of uncertainty, which is exactly the charm. Other players may take this opportunity to stand up and prove themselves in the game, fill the vacancy left by McAllister's absence, and bring unexpected surprises to the team.
