Chapter 44 Who Is Afraid of Whom?
It is understandable that Van Persie wants to return to Arsenal. After all, Arsenal is playing better and better now and has great momentum to revive the Gunners style. Google search reading
Manchester United has been going downhill since leaving Ferguson.
Today, Manchester United is ranked ninth in the league standings, 17 points behind Liverpool, which ranks first.
Although they have reached the knockout rounds of the Champions League, according to Manchester United's current state, it is almost impossible to reach the finals or even win the cup.
Van Persie left Arsenal to pursue glory, but he did not expect that Arsenal would begin to revive just after he left.
On the other hand, Manchester United is a mess!
Lucky was a little depressed. There were really too many things going on during this period.
First Vermaelen wanted to leave, then Robin van Persie wanted to come back.
One of them wants to leave and the other wants to come back, which is really depressing.
Rejecting Van Persie's request, Lucky did not have any psychological burden.
He and Van Persie are really not familiar with each other. Compared to Van Persie, the captain, Arteta is more helpful to Lucky, so Lucky does not need to speak for him.
Secondly, he didn't want to get involved in such nonsense and add to his troubles.
To this end, Lucky drove directly to Wenger's residence.
Wenger seemed quite surprised by Lucky's sudden visit.
In the study room, Wenger took a sip of coffee and sighed.
Van Persie is not his favorite general, but there are some irreconcilable rifts between the two.
Even for the sake of the club, Wenger cannot accept Van Persie.
Wenger is pleased with Lucky's approach.
Lucky took the initiative to come to him and tell him these things, which meant that Lucky trusted him.
"Boy, you did a good job." Wenger said pleasantly; "As a player, you don't need to get involved in these transfer issues, you just need to focus on the game."
Lucky held the coffee and nodded, "I think so too."
Lucky looked at the time and said, "It's getting late, I should go."
Wenger stretched out his hand to stop him and said with a smile: "Let's have a chat."
Lucky was stunned for a moment, but still sat down.
Wenger's eyes looked at Lucky, his cloudy eyes flashing with light from time to time.
During his years as a football coach, Lucky may not have been the best player, but he was definitely the player he was most satisfied with.
"You know about Vermaelen, right?" Wenger said directly.
Lucky grinned; "Can I say I don't know?"
"Vermaelen has already told me," Wenger said.
Lucky shook his head and said: "Okay, I know he is leaving, and I can also understand your approach."
Hearing this, Wenger once again showed a pleased expression.
The reason why he didn't say it out loud was because he was worried that the players wouldn't accept it.
After all, this is selling the captain!
Although many club captains choose to leave at the end of their careers to continue their careers.
But Arsenal is different, because the problems between Cesc Fabregas and Van Persie cast a shadow over this incident.
Snapped!
Wenger clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Now talk about your feelings."
"Feelings?" Le Kai was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you feel?"
Wenger smiled and said, "Sometimes you are really slow. Don't forget, you are the second captain. After Vermaelen leaves, you will be the captain of Arsenal!"
Hearing this, Lucai opened his mouth slightly and said in shock, "First captain? Me?"
"That's right!" Wenger shrugged; "So, do you know what the captain should do?"
Lucky shook his head and said, "I don't know at all."
"I'll teach you." Wenger said with a smile; "Football is a team sport. Each team has 11 players. These 11 people have their own ideas, and the captain's task is to keep these people together. Huddle together and form a team.”
"The role of a captain is not only reflected on the field, but also requires sufficient prestige and weight in the locker room."
"Just like in the game against Manchester United last season, you and Vermaelen scolded Theo Walcott awake. When the whole team loses their fighting spirit, the captain still has to maintain enough fighting will!"
"It's actually a very difficult position to be in."
"Everyone will have moments of frustration, but as a captain, you need to be full of energy. You need to tell your teammates what we should do instead of feeling sorry for ourselves!"
"It's a pity that you didn't witness the Vieira period. The captains before you can't be called leaders!"
"But" Wenger looked at Lucky with a smile and said; "You did a very good job. Although you were a wild boy and relied on some reckless methods, you did control the locker room and had enough say. That’s why I made you the second captain.”
Lucky grinned and said, "Suddenly I don't want to be a kid anymore!"
Wenger couldn't help laughing out loud and said: "It's too late, I will not take back the appointment!"
Lucky looked at Wenger and said, "However, this is also a good experience. I think you will help me."
"Of course!" Wenger raised his eyebrows.
"In addition to the above two categories, the captain also needs to be a bridge of communication between the players and the club, but you have to remember that you are always on the side of the players. Even if you are disobeying me, you still have to stand with your partners. Together"
Wenger spoke for more than two hours, interspersed with various cases, teaching Lucai how to become a qualified captain.
And Lekai also listened attentively. He humbly asked for advice from the world-famous coach.
On December 26, the day after Christmas, the Premier League ushered in the 18th round of the league.
Arsenal challenged West Ham United away.
There is a hooligan team in the Premier League, the "Hammer Gang" in East London.
As an important carrier in the famous football movie "Football Hooligans", West Ham United is full of iron and blood and violent factors.
This is a rare club in the Premier League that maintains English football.
West Ham United is located in the working-class area of East London. The team logo consists of two crossed hammers, so it is called the "Hammer Gang".
West Ham United's style is tough.
Although the pattern of "Whether London is chaotic or not, the Hammer Gang has the final say" has not yet been formed, it is still a team that dares to fight.
Just like in this game, Arsenal's several attacks were hindered by the violent fouls of the Hammer Gang.
Continuous fouls caused Arsenal players to start to fear the opponent's foul tactics and play conservatively.
But obviously some people don't want to continue like this.
West Ham United player Joe Cole just shoveled Cazorla, but the opponent was obviously scared of being shoveled and gave up the ball in advance, resulting in the loss of the ball.
Joe Cole was very satisfied with this situation.
So, Arsenal are all soft eggs!
Except for playing beautiful football, they are amateurs in fighting!
They don't know how to play football after being scared!
After Joe Cole steals the ball, he wants to break through quickly to the side.
But suddenly, there was a strong wind in his ears, and the next second, the whole person was spinning.
Bang! !
Joe Cole fell to the ground, his eyes were a little surprised, he felt like he was hit by a train.
Joe Cole turned over and looked, and he saw a very strong figure wearing an Arsenal jersey standing in front of him.
He was tall, and the sun shone from behind, so his face was a little unclear, but it was very oppressive.
Lucky looked down at Joe Cole coldly.
This was a deliberate foul.
But Lucky did not regret this foul!
Soon, the West Ham players rushed over, wanting to ask for an explanation.
The first one to rush over was Jarvis.
A 170cm tall "dwarf"!
In professional football, this guy is a dwarf!
Jarvis rushed over with his teeth bared, wanting to confront Lucky.
Lucky turned around, stretched out a palm, and pressed the opponent's chest down.
Jarvis's chest, which had just been straightened, was immediately retracted, and then the whole person was pressed down by this force and sat on the ground.
Seeing this, the West Ham players were angry.
What? Want to fight? !
They immediately rushed towards Lucky.
But Lucky remained motionless, staring at them coldly!
Just as the group was about to rush towards Lekai, Ramsey suddenly appeared in front of Lekai, followed by Arsenal players joining the chaos.
The two sides began to push each other.
Cazorla was hit on the back of the head.
Ramsey backhanded a big shove!
A player from West Ham United just raised his hand towards Suarez, and the latter suddenly started to grin!
"Lekai!! This is a foul!" Zhan Jun grinned.
Zhang Lu: "Jarvis is about to rush over, someone is going to stop him"
Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun were shocked to see Jarvis being knocked to the ground by Lekai's slap, and then the whole situation was going out of control.
But soon a sharp whistle sounded.
The referee joined in and separated the players from both sides.
At the same time, Lekai and Joe Cole were given a yellow card each, which was considered a slap on the wrist.
Joe Cole was the most confused.
He didn't do anything, so why did he get a yellow card?
He was about to go up to argue, but the referee immediately made a gesture of taking out a card, and Joe Cole shut up.
After the farce ended, Lekai shouted to everyone: "What are you afraid of! Fight them! They have three yellow cards, we have one yellow card, try to get me two more!"
The Arsenal players grinned, is this human talk?
Of course, they also knew what Lekai meant, that is, to let them play more fiercely.
And after Lekai's foul this time, they are no longer afraid.
So, the leading role is crucial!
At worst, we can just have a fight!
Who is afraid of who!
