Chapter 94 Premier League Christmas Dinner
After the Arsenal and Chelsea match ended, the prelude to the Christmas battle was officially kicked off.
With the Gunners and the Blues in front of the battle, many league matches that followed this week ended with a very passionate attitude.
The fans shouted about the excitement of the games, and many media reporters were completely in a carnival.
This week, the Premier League once again confirmed its position as the top five leagues with its top performance.
After all, compared to La Liga, which is equal to the Spanish Super League and other leagues, Serie A has fallen from a small World Cup to a team that has not qualified in the Champions League group and has become the leader, and the Bundesliga dominates the core of other teams and has no competitors. The showdown in the Premier League big6 is really exciting.
As for Ligue 1, there is no need to mention that as the tail of the five major leagues, this league can only be said to be in a corner, and there is capital to pay attention to the investability here one after another.
Now that Paris Saint-Germain has been injected, Monaco has also begun to frequently wield money to buy young geniuses. Ligue 1 may become more vocal in the near future, but it is definitely not now.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when other leagues have begun their winter break, the FA has beautifully used its media publicity capabilities to further expand the popularity of the Premier League.
This also means that a number of BIG6-level strong teams cannot rest.
Even Arsenal, who has already had a big fight with Chelsea, has not ended yet.
Just three days after the battle with the Blues, they ushered in another league match. In the 18th round of the league, they will go away to play against West Ham United.
This game is obviously not that difficult than a showdown with Manchester City and Chelsea, but the problem is that Arsenal has experienced two consecutive battles in just ten days.
Therefore, when Wenger wanted to arrange the team for the away matchup between West Ham United, many of the team's main players were obviously tired, which is a problem that cannot be ignored.
The day before the game, when the professor stood in front of the players and clicked the starting lineup of the team, many players already knew that it was impossible to start at their own condition.
This is true. Facing the away game against West Ham United, which is now ranked 17th in the league, the professor has used a large number of substitutes.
"We will play 451 in tomorrow's game."
First of all, in the starting lineup, the team's model worker Giroud got a chance to rest in this game, and Liu Feng, who was fighting hard, appeared alone on the team's forward line.
In the arrangement of the five midfielders, the left forward and right forwards were Chamberlain, William, Cassorla, Rosici and Granero respectively, forming the team's three midfielders.
Among them, Granero is located more of a back-back.
In terms of the four-back layout, Gibbs and Alves form left and right full-backs, while the central defenders are Squeakic and Koscheerney, respectively. Even the goalkeeper is Fabianski, the team's two-point goal.
"Don't change the score too urgently. Our main tactic tomorrow is control, save your energy and win the game in the easiest way."
Although he didn't want to show too much contempt for his opponent, West Ham's performance this season was really unconvincing. Their fans all doubt whether the club itself has begun to play badly.
Because the team collapsed from the beginning of the league and the first half of the season was almost over, I didn’t see the club changing coaches or strengthening during the winter break.
In this case, it is not very possible for Arsenal, who has experienced a series of devil schedules but remains unbeaten in the golden state, to pay much attention to them.
After all, gunmen also need to relax.
In this way, after the players left the training base that night, everyone got on the bus to the London Olympic Stadium the next day.
Yes, by chance, West Ham United is also a team in London City. It can only be said that the entire London market is indeed big enough to make many clubs even though they can't starve.
Without going through much bumpy journey, the Gunners' players in charge of this game came to their opponent's home court.
The away pressure of this game is very small, because except for the West Ham United fans who are loyal to the stands booed, many of the fans in the other stands are even Arsenal fans.
Due to the Gunners' current terrifying strength and championship title, many fans of small clubs have regarded it as their second club to follow and watch the game.
Therefore, the warm-up process of Arsenal was very pleasant. The players were busy carrying out every project without any chance for reporters who wanted to capture anything.
When the two teams returned to the locker room and took a brief rest and appeared on the court again, the game officially kicked off.
As the captain of the Gunners, Liu Feng won the game in the rock-scissors, so he successfully chose the kick-off right for the team, which allowed the ball to flow all the way after it was driven out, and soon achieved the goal of the professor controlling the game.
As the home team, West Ham United put on an extremely stiff 451 when facing Arsenal's challenge. At the critical moment of relegation, they were ready to only get one point in the face of Arsenal.
This just happened to the Arsenal team's wishes. They fully controlled the situation. Under Rosici's dispatch, the team controlled the rhythm of the game with no dullness.
Although West Ham United can occasionally cut off the ball, as Zhan Jun said in his commentary on this game, West Ham United is like a prey in a cage. Although they can occasionally get into the cage and breathe, they are unable to escape the hunter's palms.
In the 30th minute of the game, when Rosici continued to pass and cooperated suddenly tore the gap in West Ham United's five midfielder through Cazorla, Liu Feng, who received Cazorla's diagonally passing from the center position, turned around and passed the defender in front of him.
He entered the penalty area and shot in one go. This set of moves has been practiced countless times by Liu Feng, and it is also one of his most fascinating moves.
When the ball flew past the five-finger pass guarded by West Ham United goalkeeper and flew into the goal, the score changed accordingly.
The cheers of Arsenal fans echoed over the London Olympic Stadium, and the home team fans and their players were speechless.
The feeling of powerlessness of being led by the opponent is too strong. The state of wanting to resist but helplessness. The huge strength makes it impossible to find the direction of the struggle even making it difficult for the direction of this game to change.
Chapter completed!
