Episode [386]: Arsenal's Top Striker
Before the game, the Arsenal team accepted interviews from media reporters, all of which complimented Leeds United.
Seeing these news reports, Zhong Cheng smiled wryly!
Arsene Wenger's purpose is obvious, as long as an individual can see it. But Zhong Cheng was very worried!
Yes, Arsene Wenger's methods are not very high, but they are used just right!
Arsene Wenger saw the problems at Leeds United right away and the Frenchman took advantage of them. This trick looks very simple and simple, but the effect should not be underestimated.
Because the players of Leeds United are really a little drifting now, and now the whole Arsenal team is still so enthusiastic about them, it is impossible for them not to drift.
Albertini frowned when he saw these, and was very worried in his heart.
Albertini has been a player before, and he can understand the lethality of Arsene Wenger's simple and simple moves. When the players' winning streak reaches a certain stage, they can't suppress their pride and complacency. These soft knives are very easy to have unpredictable results.
This is why some people say that prosperity must decline.
Albertini stared at Zhong Cheng worriedly, and asked: "Boss, what should we do now? The team's situation is not very good!"
Zhong Cheng smiled slightly, waved his hands and said: "Don't worry too much, trust our boys. Their adjustment ability is still very strong, and their control ability is also good. Otherwise, our Leeds United team would not have won 16 consecutive victories. So, just trust them, they are stronger than we imagined!"
Albertini was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't expect Zhong Cheng to respond like this.
Isn't Zhong Cheng worried at all?
Zhong Cheng continued: "Besides, I have already reminded everything that needs to be reminded. No matter how much I say now, they may not be able to listen. So, at this time, they can only rely on themselves."
Albertini was taken aback again, and Zhong Cheng actually said such words, which was beyond his expectation.
Zhong Cheng also said: "Besides, sometimes losing one or two games may not be a bad thing! Look at how powerful the players exploded when we lost four games in a row at the beginning of the league? It's not bad to give them a blow in the head now, so that they can get to know themselves better, isn't it great?"
Albertini thought for a while, thinking, and thought what Zhong Cheng said was right.
Zhong Cheng also said: "And there is still a long time before the end of the Premier League. At this time, it is always better to lose at the end of the season, because we still have time to chase after losing at this time. If we lose until the end of the season, we may lose again and again at that time, and we will collapse directly!"
Albertini was shocked, it turned out that Zhong Cheng had already considered such a far place!
Albertini thinks what Zhong Cheng said is right. If you want to lose, it is obviously better to lose now than to lose at the end of the season!
After hearing Zhong Cheng's words, Albertini was not so worried.
At this moment, Albertini is very relaxed, and they can accept whatever the game is like, so what is there to worry about?
Of course, this does not mean that Zhong Cheng gave up this game.
It is naturally best to win this game. After all, if they lose this game, Leeds United will lose the top position in the league, and there is even the danger of going to the fourth position in the league. How could Zhong Cheng give up this game so easily?
Zhong Cheng did not give up. His current attitude is mainly because Zhong Cheng has already done what he should do. The next step is the reaction and performance of his players. Zhong Cheng has already prepared for the worst, but the goal of Leeds United is still to hit the victory, hit the 17th consecutive victory of the Premier League!
━━━Separation line━━━
No one from Zhong Cheng and Leeds United responded, which was beyond Arsene Wenger's expectations. Zhong Cheng and Leeds United did not speak up before the game, which is really abnormal.
what is happening?
Yes, Arsene Wenger was a little suspicious at this time.
This guy Zhong Cheng didn't speak up, didn't he have any opinion on their pre-match remarks? Didn't express their views? What exactly does Zhong Cheng mean? What conspiracy is this guy brewing?
Therefore, it may not be bad to not speak up sometimes!
For some suspicious people, your occasional abnormal behavior will cause them to attach great importance to it, and then frantically research and guess, even deducting details one by one, and then torture themselves into a lunatic.
This is the case with seriously suspicious people. They often lose not to their opponents, but to themselves!
Although Arsene Wenger is not usually a very suspicious person.
But when facing Zhong Cheng, his suspicion still grew stronger. Because Zhong Cheng's behavior today is really over the top, coupled with his previous understanding of Zhong Cheng, this guy is a very cunning person with ever-changing methods and many schemes. Arsene Wenger had to suspect that Zhong Cheng was planning some kind of conspiracy!
So, at this time Arsene Wenger was just guessing, guessing what Zhong Cheng wanted to do?
However, now that Zhong Cheng has not spoken out, he has nothing to analyze, so now Arsene Wenger is a little clueless.
Arsene Wenger racked his brains, but he couldn't figure out what Zhong Cheng was thinking!
For this reason, Arsene Wenger is even more convinced that Zhong Cheng is brewing a super big move. So before the game, Arsene Wenger kept reminding the Arsenal players to be careful and be careful of the conspiracy of Leeds United.
At the same time, Arsene Wenger also reminded the Arsenal players to pay attention to defense during the game, to pay attention to defense all the time, and not to give Leeds United a good chance to counterattack.
At this moment, Arsene Wenger was not as confident as before!
Arsene Wenger is suddenly full of worries about this game, which seems to have been a little bit out of his control.
Arsene Wenger closed his eyes and pondered, thinking to himself: "This damn crazy Loya is really not simple!"
Now that the game is not far away, Arsene Wenger is getting a little nervous.
At this time, Arsene Wenger hoped to go to the scene earlier, so that he could observe Zhong Cheng and Leeds United carefully, and see what the hell these guys were doing?
Under such circumstances, Arsene Wenger led his players onto the bus and headed for Arsenal's home stadium, the Emirates Stadium.
This season, Arsene Wenger really went all out. Originally, Arsenal had built a new stadium, so they didn't have much money. But the results in the first two seasons were too poor, so they still gritted their teeth and paid a lot of money to introduce some powerful players.
Among them, the Arsenal team spent 60 to 70 million pounds on Leeds United, introducing Darren Bent, Diaby and others. Obviously, Arsenal's goal this season is very clear, which is to at least reach the top four in the Premier League next year and return to the UEFA Champions League.
Now they are ranked second in the Premier League, and they are very, very close to the top of the Premier League. It seems that the results of the signings are very good, and now they have only one goal, and that is the top of the Premier League!
No matter what conspiracy Zhong Cheng has, Arsene Wenger must win this game!

January 1, 2008, Emirates Stadium, London, England!
The weather in London today is still very good. It is a rare day with a clear sky, no rain or fog. The weather is very good, but it is a bit windy and still a bit cold.
But these still can't conceal the enthusiasm of the fans. Arsenal fans came to the Emirates Stadium and filled the stadium. They all held up various banners, congratulating Arsenal on topping the Premier League.
Obviously, Arsenal fans believe that Arsenal will undoubtedly win this game, and Arsenal is going to become the top team in the Premier League.
The Arsenal fans were in high spirits, waiting for the game to start.
Of course, there are also many fans of Leeds United in Tainan today, because the Emirates Stadium is very large and can accommodate 60,000 people, so Leeds United got more tickets than other places.
Obviously, the fans of Leeds United attach great importance to this game!
The fans of Leeds United are singing the team song of Leeds United to cheer for Leeds United. They firmly believe that Leeds United will definitely win this game!
At this time, BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson said: "A lot, players from both sides have come out of the player channel, now let's introduce to you the starting list of both sides today!"
Today, the starting rosters of the two sides are as follows:
Home Team: Arsenal, Manager: Arsene Wenger, Formation: 4-4-2
Goalkeeper: Almunia
Back four [from left to right]: Clichy, Senderos, Kolo Touré and Eboue
The midfield four [from left to right]: Hleb, Fabregas, Abu Diaby and Rosicky
Forwards: Bam Adebayo and Darren Bent
Yes, this is Arsenal's starting lineup today, and there are many changes.
Almunia has replaced Lehmann in the goalkeeper position, and Lehmann is said to be retiring soon. Almunia has become Arsenal's main goalkeeper, but Arsene Wenger seems a little dissatisfied, so he is preparing to introduce a new goalkeeper.
It is said that Arsene Wenger took a fancy to the No. 1 goalkeeper of the England national team, and now Leeds United's main goalkeeper Zhong Zheng. Obviously, this is very difficult, almost impossible.
On the back line, the French central defender Gallas did not start. He was replaced by Senderos, a young central defender. Arsene Wenger is full of expectations for him and believes that he will be the core of Arsenal's defense in the future.
Midfielder Flamini has already been sidelined. It is said that this winter transfer will be sent away by Arsene Wenger, and it seems that he will be sent directly to the Rossoneri.
Van Persie is still sitting on the bench at the forward line. After Darren Bent came, he took away Van Persie's main position not long after. Twenty rounds have passed. Darren Bent started 14 games and came off the bench for 2 games. He scored 16 goals and played very well.
This is today's starting list for Arsenal. It can almost be said that the main players are starting. It can be seen that Arsene Wenger's desire to win this game is very, very obvious!
