Chapter 43: The State of Having No Teammates

Arsenal training is in full swing.

Mourinho on the sidelines also looked at this scene with a satisfied smile.

Since he accepted Arsenal and transformed it, the team has shown combat effectiveness. Although there is still a certain gap with the top European teams, Mourinho believes that as long as they continue to work together, Arsenal will be able to break out. Amazing energy.

The performance of individual players in the Arsenal team also impressed Mourinho.

The first is Robertson. He is already Arsenal's main full-back.

Since joining Arsenal, Robertson has only substituted once and quickly became a stable starting position.

His presence makes Arsenal tighter on the defensive end and gives them more options on the offensive end.

Many times, when Arsenal were advancing, Robertson would come forward from outside the winger.

This can not only increase the density of the opponent's defense, but also help the overall offense advance better.

The most important thing is that Robertson's passing ability also benefits Arsenal's forwards to get more shooting opportunities.

Next is the player Mane.

This player from Senegal was not liked by Mourinho at first, but with this guy's performance, Mourinho gradually changed his mind.

Mane is the kind of player who eats grass and milks cows. He does not occupy the ball, is willing to assist, and is willing to help his teammates create offensive opportunities. His playing style is extremely selfless.

Although he couldn't be the bright spot on the court, Mourinho saw everything.

As long as this player is developed properly, he will definitely be a top player.

Finally it’s Lukaku!

Lukaku, who first joined Arsenal, had a lot of problems.

But Mourinho really wanted to give this sturdy player some opportunities.

With the efforts of Mourinho and Arsenal, Lukaku's changes are obvious to all.

The change can be seen in his goal numbers.

He's quickly adapting to this team and becoming the primary outlet for fire.

As for the defense, I can't say there are any surprises, but it has met Mourinho's requirements.

Mourinho's requirements are very strict, especially on the defensive end.

As a head coach known for his defensive counterattacks, his foundation is the defense.

The partnership of Jimenez and Hummels makes Arsenal's defense extremely strong, and with the presence of two midfielders, Lucky and Kante, Arsenal's defense can be said to be impregnable.

What needs most attention at the moment is Jimenez's glass-like attributes. As long as he is not injured, everything will be fine.

Koscielny and Mustafi's partner, Mourinho did not want to give up.

But it must be a substitute for the second team.

It can be said that the only problem with this Arsenal is the left wing.

Of course, this problem cannot be said to be a problem.

This is Aubameyang's second season with Arsenal, but he still failed to perform enough.

In other words, in Mourinho's view, Aubameyang has a higher ceiling, but he just failed to play it out.

How to activate Aubameyang's abilities has always been a problem facing Mourinho.

"Quick speed, excellent movement and ability to grab points, keen sense of smell in front of the goal, and assist ability. Among these four abilities, he only played the first and fourth."

Mourinho was a little troubled: "What if Aubameyang's movement and sense of smell in front of the goal are used?"

For this reason, Mourinho also tried to let Aubameyang enter the penalty area, but instead suppressed Aubameyang's performance.

Suddenly, Mourinho murmured; "Have I suppressed Aubameyang's room for movement too much?"

"gentlemen?"

Arteta on the side turned his head and asked in confusion.

Mourinho turned around abruptly, left the training ground and dove into the office.

He started to look at the videos of Arsenal's past games.

The player he mainly focuses on is Aubameyang.

After watching the game videos one after another, Mourinho finally discovered the problem.

He leaned on his back, suddenly shook his head and laughed, "How can we make the plane take off if we don't run long enough!"

The next day, Arsenal’s team training match.

After Mourinho divided the teams, he took the initiative to find Aubameyang.

"In this training match, no one will restrict your running direction. You can freely shuttle around the entire left wing!"

Looking at Mourinho's appearance, Aubameyang was a little confused.

But the latter has pushed him into the field.

Aubameyang didn't understand what Mourinho meant, but the other party allowed him to shuttle freely on the left wing, and he suddenly felt breathable in his heart.

Aubameyang wore a red vest and started the intra-team match.

Mourinho and the coaches are also paying attention to their respective review targets.

Mourinho is mainly concerned about Aubameyang.

"Aubameyang's speed is an advantage. Wenger and I both thought about him receiving the ball in the frontcourt and then using his speed to create advantages, but we forgot about the length of the track. That distance cannot inspire Aubameyang. Yang’s absolute speed also limits the use of his other abilities!”

Mourinho looked towards the court, and he saw Aubameyang retreating directly into a deep position. After receiving the pass from the full-back, he immediately started to start.

Mourinho's eyes lit up.

"start"

Boom! !

Before Aubameyang started, Lucky suddenly appeared on the wing and shoveled the ball out of the sideline.

Then he slowly turned around and left.

At this moment, Aubameyang and Mourinho were feeling depressed.

The feeling of about to explode was suddenly interrupted by Lucai as soon as it appeared.

"still have a chance!"

Aubameyang secretly cheered, as long as the retracement is too deep, that state can still be continued.

10 minutes later, Aubameyang found a chance again.

He strode towards the ball, his feet moving very fast at first, and soon he threw off his arms and started running wildly.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened.

So fast!

Even faster than before!

Aubameyang also felt extremely excited. This is the way he is familiar with playing.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of him.

The opponent is rushing towards him quickly. Instead of standing up to block the inner runway, the opponent chooses to close in and press.

In desperation, Aubameyang immediately smashed the ball outside, trying to distance himself and forcefully overtake from the outside.

But the opponent suddenly stretched out his foot and poked the ball out of the sideline.

Aubameyang had no choice but to slow down.

He turned his head and looked at the burly figure with resentful eyes.

There are no surprises, he is still the captain!

Snapped! ! !

On the sidelines, everyone slapped their foreheads.

This feeling was terrible. I was about to reach climax, but I was stopped abruptly.

There are times when Lucky's tackling ability is irritating.

"Kai!!! Come down!! -"

Mourinho couldn't help it.

This training match was intended for Aubameyang to find his form, but he was messed up by Lucky twice in a row, and he would be beaten even if he was in good form.

If Lucky continues to stay in the game, Aubameyang will only become more cautious.

Lucky was a little confused.

But the coach asked him to leave the game, so he left the game.

Without Lucky's obstruction, Aubameyang's performance has become normal.

But the problem is, this guy can't find that feeling again.

Tried many times in a row but still to no avail.

Mourinho and the coaches all felt extremely headaches.

They could only look at Lucky with dissatisfaction.

This captain is worthy of his role and has knocked out his teammates!

Lucky asked in confusion: "What are you looking at me for?"

Arteta smiled wryly and walked over to explain.

Lucky then showed a shocked expression.

"this"

At this time, Lucai was also full of embarrassment.

If he knew the situation, he would have let it go.

"How about I go and encourage you?" Lucky said with a wry smile.

Arteta shook his head and said: "It's useless, wait until next time. This time I found some form. Although I failed to show it, I have experienced this state and can reappear in a short period of time. There are no problems at all." has been solved!"

"But has your tackling ability improved again?"

Lucky's tackling ability was already very strong before, but now he feels more stable.

With Aubameyang's speed, Lucky can easily complete the steal.

You know, the speedy players in the past were Tianke Lekai's type.

In this regard, Lucai smiled and said; "I can't always be in a passive situation, so I have compiled some tips on tackling. I can't say that it is 100% useful, but I won't be so passive."

Arteta nodded and said, "Let's try it during the game!"
