Chapter 496: Lost the Blue Moon of Tianwang Mountain

That's a little bit weird, given that January and February were as extensive as they've been with injuries.Everyone thought that Arsenal would start to lose the chain due to the impact of large-scale injuries as in previous years-but in fact they did lose and peace a lot of games, and some games that should have been won were not won.

But in mid-April, only one month before the end of the season, everyone suddenly discovered that Arsenal was still heading for three championships.

They reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, the FA Cup final, and now they are fourth in the league - a position they and everyone are very familiar with.

But they are only nine points away from the first Manchester City. Although this score is still relatively large, with five rounds left in the league, Arsenal still has a chance to win the championship in theory.

Moreover, they are on the same points as their third city rival Chelsea, and they only have seven points against the second Liverpool.
What if in the last few rounds of the league, Liverpool and Manchester City can't withstand the pressure and lose the chain?

Although it is unbelievable, such a situation has not happened before.

Therefore, in theory, Arsenal has a chance to win the Triple Crown. Of course, this is in theory. In practice, the chances are actually pitifully small.

Arsenal's game is the latest game to start this round. It may be due to the fact that Arsenal's schedule is too tight, so the FA also "reasonable" once, and put the game on the weekend night. At this time, Beijing time is already in the early morning of Monday.

The last game is not necessarily the finale. The finale of this round is Liverpool's match against Manchester City at Anfield.

This is a battle of Tianwang Mountain, a real battle of Tianwang Mountain.The result of this game may directly affect the ownership of the final champion.

After Manchester City has played all their extra games, they are ranked first in the league with 76 points, while Liverpool, who are second in the league, are four points behind with 72 points.If Manchester City wins this game, they will lead Liverpool by as much as seven points. With four rounds left in the league, it will be really difficult for Liverpool, the remaining Arsenal and Chelsea to catch up. , especially when Manchester City's other championships are out and they are focused on the league.

Of course, if Liverpool wins, they will chase the points behind to only one point. Such a gap is very likely for Liverpool this season to complete the final counterattack. There is also a theoretical possibility.

This focus battle has attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of viewers all over the world, and at the same time, this game has also made fans hooked.

A total of five goals were scored, and it was a standard offensive battle.In the end, Liverpool, which was at home, had the upper hand and had the last laugh.Three to two, beating the mighty Manchester City at Anfield.Among them, Suarez and Sturridge each scored a goal, Gerrard hit a penalty kick, and teenager Sterling scored twice with an assist.

It can be said that Liverpool played very rhythmically in this game, whether it was a sharp offense or a tacit third-line cooperation.And the two points are that the tridents in the frontcourt have their own gains, and more blossoms.

Manchester City is also very tenacious. They evened the score twice after falling behind twice, but finally died in Suarez's lore.
With this lore, Suarez was also elected the best player of the game.

This season, he was suspended for biting Ivanovic last season. Suarez, who didn't come out until he played six rounds in the league, became a blockbuster when he came out, and then he was out of control ever since.

In the 34th round of the league, the Uruguayan striker played a total of 26 league games and scored 27 goals for Liverpool in the league, averaging a horrible goal rate of one goal per game.

And the stats of 27 goals are also directly catching up with Li Zihan, who has 29 goals. City midfield metronome and centerpiece Yaya Toure with eight impressive goals.

And this season, Li Zihan, Suarez and La Liga's Diego Costa have become the forwards that all European teams have heard of, and even overwhelmed Chris Ronaldo and Messi. These three strikers are almost
But these two pairs of enemies have been famous all over the world for a long time, so it is not surprising that they have such status and data. When they do not have such data, the media all over the world will be surprised.

So for the sudden emergence of Li Zihan, Suarez and Diego Costa, it is obvious that the media pays more attention to these three people
When the Arsenal game has not yet started, the entire Arsenal team already knows the result of this focus battle.

I don't know if it was stimulated by Manchester City's loss or the main core was fully rested. In this game against the Hammers, Arsenal won the opponent with three goals at the Emirates Stadium.

Li Zihan scored twice, and Wilshere was the icing on the cake. After assisting Li Zihan and Wilshere successively, Ozil also completed a hat-trick of assists. Cazorla, who returned to Arsenal's main lineup, had an assist credited.
At the end of this round, the top four teams in the league all won. Chelsea beat Swansea [-]-[-] in the away game, perhaps because Swansea ranked ninth in the league, not the top ten in the second half. below, so Chelsea didn't steal from the rich and give to the poor, let them score
On the other hand, Manchester United, which has almost swapped identities with Liverpool in the standings this season, won again in the league. They defeated Hull City [-]-[-]. It seems that after Moyes got out of class, Manchester United in the league won. .
As Ryan Giggs's first home game after taking office as the interim head coach, Manchester United fans naturally gave him the highest courtesy.Before the opening, when Giggs entered the field.Tens of thousands of Red Devils fans shouted in unison: "Giggs, the real Red Devils!"

This also made the corners of the man's eyes moist.

After this round of the league, Arsenal can finally relax a little bit.Because their next game will not come until a few days later, Wenger also gave the team a day off at this time, so that the tense players can relax a little.

Of course, when he disbanded, he could not avoid exhorting his players.If he finds out that anyone's body or training attitude is relaxed during the training the day after tomorrow, he will die!
For such a threat, no one dared to ignore or ignore it.Don't you see that Podolski, who has few opportunities now, is a good example?

The outside world agrees that Podolski has fewer opportunities now, because he was affected by the injury in the winter, which caused his state to decline. After Wenger gave him some opportunities, Poulti failed to seize them. The professor is in limbo.

In fact, this is only one of the reasons. The reason why Podolski is seldom arranged by Professor Wenger in the starting lineup is that he has very little time as a substitute. One of the most important factors is that he was with Giroud during the recovery period. Going to a nightclub, then being constantly distracted and not serious in training.
Wenger is still relatively strict with his own players. Wenger lashed out at Wilshere several times for his smoking problem, so for Podolski who didn't care about his body to fool around under such circumstances, Wenger Naturally, he was very unhappy, especially after he specifically told Podolski
In some respects, Wenger is actually a stubborn old man, so Podolski is a tragedy.

As for the accomplice Giroud, he was also punished. Although he had more chances than Podolski, he was still much less than in the first half of the season.At the same time, Wenger let him play, in addition to rotating Li Zihan to give him time to rest, there is also the need for tactical arrangements.

The only reliable high center forwards in Arsenal are Giroud and Podolski, who can play a guest role. After Polti is destined to be sidelined, of course Giroud has become the only choice.

As for Bendtner and Sanogo, they are unreliable in Wenger's eyes.

Most people rested, but Li Zihan couldn't rest.As the player with the hottest status and reputation in the Arsenal camp, there are many companies that want to conduct business cooperation with him.

And behind Li Zihan represents China's 13 billion population market, as well as the huge treasury in Asia.

In the morning, Li Zihan attended the press conference of Puma Sporting Goods about the Arsenal jersey next season.

As Arsenal's new jersey provider, Puma will naturally tailor their style of jerseys for Arsenal.

This time, the jerseys for the first away game and the second away game were released first. The jersey for the second away game naturally follows Arsenal's yellow theme, spliced ​​with a little dark blue, and the neckline is designed as a round neck style.

The second away jersey is a black and light blue stripe design, and the neckline is a button-down POLO shirt style.

In fact, the jersey does not change much every season, but there are some changes in details, or changes in the look of the second away jersey. Other changes are not big, especially for a giant like Arsenal.The red home jersey and yellow away jersey have become the memory of fans, so they generally will not change.

However, it is impossible for Puma to only change the details and styles. As the first time to cooperate with Arsenal, they certainly hope to come up with some distinctive and innovative designs.

So this time Arsenal's jersey is designed to be tight. At first glance, it looks like yoga clothes or gym clothes.

At first glance, Li Zihan looked like many netizens wanted to complain, but after trying it on, he was full of praise for this jersey.
