Chapter 836 Possibility of the Gunner Myth winning the championship?
(Thank you brethren, there is nothing to repay, only sleepless updates all night, how much can be added, and nothing can be added, I will continue to make up tomorrow)
After Arsenal defeated Aston Villa, except for a few games due to European competitions, the other teams just finished halfway. Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal formed the first group of the league; Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal. Tottenham, Manchester City and Villa formed the second square; and there are quite a few teams in the camp of relegation teams in the bottom half of the league.At present, except for the relatively low points of Portsmouth, the deputy squad leader, the points gap between the 3th place Sunderland and the 10th place Hull City is only 19 points.

Due to the rapid rise of Tottenham, Manchester City and Villa this season, the advantages of the traditional four giants Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are not as obvious as they used to be.The British media always like to trace history. According to the history of the Premier League, the championship team generally cannot lose more than 5 games in a season.And now the only champion who can qualify is the unbeaten Arsenal.

Although Arsenal's bench depth is not as deep as the other two giants, and the second half of the Champions League knockout round and the FA Cup will kick off, the Premier League media still believe that Chelsea and Manchester United also have a chance, but if there are no special surprises, This year's Premier League champions will be the Gunners without a title in five years.

Compared with Arsenal's rapid rise, Liverpool's decline rate is also jaw-dropping. At the beginning of the season, many people still regarded Liverpool as the favorite of the league and the Champions League. The sea has not started, except for the FA Cup, and the three are already empty.

Only ranked 7th in the league standings, 18 points less than Arsenal.The Champions League group stage went home early.The League Cup has also become a spectator. With the sudden emergence of Tottenham, Manchester City and Aston Villa this season, it is difficult to say whether the Red Army will qualify for the Champions League next season.

In the half-time summary report of the British and European media, Arsenal's strong outbreak is naturally the focus. Before the start of the season, many media predicted that this year's Arsenal's performance will definitely be better than previous years. Li Huan performed well when he was in Hoffenheim. Despite how great the contribution to the team is, everyone still did not expect that Arsenal, which was labeled as Lee, would be so powerful. They won all 18 league games, and secured the first place in the Champions League group stage two rounds ahead of schedule. The media believes that if Wenger hadn't strategically given up the last two games of the League Cup and the Champions League, Arsenal would probably have won all the games.

UEFA's official website calls Arsenal the half-time king in Europe and the strongest half-time champion in history. UEFA's official website said that if Chelsea and Manchester United can't hold Arsenal down during the Christmas campaign, Arsenal's season will be Na is likely to win more than five rounds ahead of schedule.And if Chelsea and Manchester United hold back Arsenal, the final competition will be extremely fierce, and the 0405-point championship record created by Chelsea in the 95 season is likely to be rewritten.

In the "Daily Mail" selected the best half-time team, Arsenal has four selected, right back Li Huan, center back Vermaelen, midfielder Cesc Fabregas, coach Arsene Wenger.

Among them, Li Huan was unanimously elected as the best right back in the Premier League.There was even a bit of controversy during the selection of the best team. Many fans believed that Li Huan should actually compete for the best striker and scored 25 goals in the half-time. Even the strongest striker Shearer did not reach this terrifying number back then. Even if the number of Li Huan's goals in the second half is halved, as long as he is not injured, Li Huan will definitely break the record of 34 goals held by Shearer in a single season.Vermaelen was also selected because of his scoring ability. After successfully completing the scoring task, Vermaelen also scored 7 goals, which is a statistic that ordinary forwards cannot get. Fabregas There have been injuries one after another, but his organization in the midfield has strongly supported the wings and is an indispensable part of Fabregas-Lee's core.

The election of Professor Wenger is a bit controversial. Compared with the top four coaches under him, the local coach Hodgson successfully coped with the pressure of the two-line battle with a thin lineup, and the Europa League team successfully broke through; The stable league results make people believe that Fulham, which was seventh in the league last season, is by no means a flash in the pan.Today, Craven Farm has become a sinister place where the rich talk about it, and Hodgson is also touted as Capello's successor after the contract expires.He is also a strong candidate for the best half.

But in the end, Arsenal's youthful storm overwhelmed everything. The 18-game winning streak topped Europe, and nearly 4 goals per game made all the fans dumbfounded. With such a record, no matter how much the head coach has played, the best The coach was eventually obtained by Wenger.

Compared with the previous best lineup consisting of whites and blacks, there are two more yellow races in the best half of this season. In addition to Li Huan, the best chairman Yang Jiacheng, a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, got it. When the Hong Kong people completed the acquisition of Birmingham, No one would have thought that Birmingham, which was still struggling to relegation at the time, would rise to the top, and even once entered the top six. The record of 11 consecutive unbeaten games, 7 wins and 4 draws made the giants feel ashamed. Of course, if Kroenke replaced Hill Wood as Arsenal In the case of the best chairman, Yang Jiacheng probably won't be the best chairman.

It is not a great honor to be the best in the half, but it is also a great incentive for the young people of Arsenal. They swept all the teams in the half, which made the young Gunners high-spirited. Some time ago, players, fans, clubs It’s a bit embarrassing to mention the undefeated record of the 0304 season to win the championship, but now the undefeated championship is out of date. Now the fans’ goal for the Gunners is to win the championship with a complete victory record. Although the players and the club have repeatedly stated that it is impossible to win the championship with a complete victory record Yes, but the media still believe that it is impossible in theory, but in fact it is possible to win the championship with a complete victory, because many Gunners players will come back in the second half. With a little help of luck, it is not a myth to win the championship with a record of victory.

Professor Wenger's only worry at the moment is injury reduction. Cesc Fabregas is still not recovering, Rosicky has an old injury, Bendtner is training with the ball, and Nasri was additionally punished by the FA and suspended for three games.As long as they can survive these few weeks, Arsenal can only get better and better.

It turned out that Arsenal also planned to buy Arshavin from Hoffenheim. Now that the winter transfer started, Wenger changed his plan. At first, he wanted to introduce Arshavin just to help Li Huan, but now it is unnecessary. Running into shape, Arshavin's arrival can only affect the unity of the team.

Another reason why Wenger did not want to buy Arshavin was the amazing performance of the young player Wilshere in the 19th round. After scoring a goal, Wilshere seemed to have grown up all of a sudden. General demeanor, the British media, who are used to touting British players, immediately compared Wilshere to Cesc Fabregas in England and Harvey in Arsenal.

Wenger is not a coach who is used to making mistakes. He knows how exaggerated the media say, but he has to admit that the teenager Wilshere has the potential for further growth. He bought Arshavin, Rosicky recovered from injury, and Will It is impossible for Hill to have a stage to perform. Professor Wenger, who has always been a bit too controlling, finally stopped Arshavin's transfer plan.

Although Wenger and Arsenal stopped Arshavin's transfer plan for their own benefit, they were eliminated from the Champions League group stage and the league was also hit hard. Hoffenheim, who only ranked third, hated Arsenal. However, three points were lost. If Arsenal insisted on poaching Arshavin from Hoffenheim at this moment, Hoffenheim would collapse in the second half.

Half-time summary, half-time best selection, these are the things that the media want to do. The Premier League teams are not in the mood at all. The tense Christmas schedule is being played in full swing. A game will be played in three days, so that every team can Can't get up easy.

Arsenal's opponent in the 20th round is Portsmouth, the deputy squad leader who swept away with 4 goals in the first round.

This season, the Pompeii Legion started with a 7-game losing streak. After changing the head coach, the team's performance once rebounded, especially when they defeated the Red Army Liverpool at home.However, after the team lost to West Ham one after another during the Christmas period, they continued to hold the throne of the deputy squad leader of the league.The Premier League has always had the 'curse' that the team ranked at the bottom of the league in the last week of December will be relegated at the end of the league. So far only West Brom has successfully broken this curse, and no other team has been spared.What is more realistic than this is the financial crisis of the club. The Pompeii Legion can't even afford the military salary. It is conceivable how powerful such an army can be.

Arsenal, which has won 18 consecutive victories, played against such a Portsmouth team at home. Before the game, many people put three points in Arsenal's pockets, but Professor Wenger also hypocritically said that the more such a team, the more Dangerous, in the face of life and death, even the most docile little animals will rise up and go all out.Arsenal must be cautious.

As a result, in this game, Arsenal once again beat the Pompeii Legion with the same score at home, 4:1, won 19 consecutive victories, and continued to lead the standings.

In the next FA Cup match against West Ham United, Professor Wenger continued to be cautious, saying that West Ham is a difficult team to play, but Arsenal played from the bench. With West Ham United taking the lead, Arsenal scored three goals in a row, and finally advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup easily 5:1.

With two consecutive victories, Wenger's cautiousness has become a joke in the Premier League. The media said that Wenger's hypocritical cautiousness is the tears of crocodiles. Now, except for Manchester United and Chelsea, which may be against Arsenal, other teams are giving points. , Even the media in other European countries believe that Arsenal has confirmed the Triple Crown this season, and they can even award the trophy to Arsenal in advance.And Arsenal's players were carried away by the media, fans and peers. Cesc Fabregas, who has always been low-key, publicly put forward the slogan of surpassing the 0304 season and winning the championship with all victories.
