i want to be king

Chapter 836

"Su, I get the feeling that Wenger is accumulating energy and preparing to attack you?"

Seeing the interviews between Wenger and Arsenal players published in the newspaper, Pepe asked Su Dong with a smile.

"Fart!" Su Dong replied indifferently.

It was Manchester City's routine meeting every matchday morning, and the Manchester City players couldn't help laughing out loud, which eventually turned into a roar of laughter in the conference room.

"Every time he meets Wenger, he puts on a show. Every time he meets Mourinho, he says, no one knows Su Dong better than me. What happened?" Toni Kroos couldn't help laughing and sarcastically.

Indeed, how to restrain Su Dong has become a subject of study by many famous European marshals.

Every time they meet Su Dong's team, the famous coaches will do everything they can to study restraint.

From Chelsea to Barcelona, ​​every time Mourinho meets Su Dong, he will say before the game, I watched Su Dong grow up, and no one knows him better than me. The problem is that the crazy brother has never lost, never won the game!

Wenger and Ferguson are basically the same.

What is the so-called Su Dong's cage was created before, but Su Dong was not trapped in the end.

"But to be honest, Arsenal's battle is a bit big this time." After laughing, Pepe said solemnly.

"Actually, it's normal." Gareth Barry took the words, "You only need to understand Arsenal's business strategy over the past few years."

Everyone immediately looked at the former Aston Villa captain, wanting to hear what he had to say.

"Actually, Wenger has no pedophilia at all. He is only pragmatic at most, so you can check. In the first few years when he coached Arsenal, he signed a lot of strength, and the introductions were basically powerful stars. Although Vieira and Henry did not perform well in Serie A, their strengths have been proven."

"Even if it's like Anelka, he is a genius who has become famous in Ligue [-]. Wenger just made a time difference and lured him to Arsenal at a low price. This is exactly the same as poaching Cesc Fabregas from the Barcelona youth academy."

Everyone nodded. Arsenal had a lot of big money in those years. For example, Reyes, this player was also worth a lot, but he didn't achieve satisfactory results.

"Wenger's real change started when they started to build a new stadium. Arsenal had limited financial resources and were unwilling to accept capital injections from big shareholders in Russia, so they could only tighten their money. Wenger also had to sell the captain one after another and vigorously train young players. It can be said that Wenger is struggling to support the new stadium."

"Now that the new stadium has been built, Arsenal's finances are still not particularly good. Therefore, Wenger's annual Premier League goal is to hit the championship, but in fact, everyone can see clearly that it is the top four in the league and keep the qualification for the Champions League. In the Champions League, Arsenal's goal is the top sixteen."

"These two goals are very cost-effective for Arsenal. They can maximize their benefits with a small investment. Therefore, Wenger has never insisted on results at all. He only needs to keep the top four in the league and qualify for the Champions League group stage."

Everyone nodded.

"Gareth is right." Su Dong also said, "But this year is completely different from previous years, or it should be said that the situation has been different since the acquisition of Manchester City by the Abu Dhabi consortium. Arsenal feel threatened, especially this season, they are really afraid!"

What Su Dong said made everyone in the venue quite proud and proud.

This is the truth.

After 21 rounds of the league, Manchester City is still at the top of the list.

Arsenal is currently ranked third in the Premier League, but Tottenham Hotspur, who is ranked fourth, is very strong. A group of players headed by Van der Vaart and Gareth Bale have played amazing combat effectiveness, and even pulled Chelsea, which once occupied the top spot for a while, out of the top four in the league.

It can be said that in today's Premier League structure, among the current top five teams, the weakest overall strength is Arsenal.

Once Chelsea recovers and returns to the top four, Wenger will be in an embarrassing situation and may not be able to keep the top four in the league. Therefore, before this possibility arises, Wenger must first ensure that Arsenal grab enough advantages.

Especially in this kind of strong dialogue.

This is not only a three-pointer, but also related to Arsenal's morale and fighting spirit.

It is also because of this that Wenger attaches so much importance to games like Manchester City.

……

The Gunners attach importance to it, and so does Manchester City.

The whole team was very dissatisfied with the [-]-[-] first round. Everyone held back their energy and wanted to avenge their revenge at the Emirates Stadium. Guardiola naturally understood the team's thinking.

Manchester City's overall tactics will basically not change much. For the details that need to be paid attention to, Guardiola and the coaching staff have also been told by ear, and there is no need to say anything more on the match day.

Now what he wants to emphasize is the timing that Manchester City must seize in the game against Arsenal.

"You can take a look at this picture."

Guardiola showed everyone the PPT carefully prepared by the coaching staff, which showed the data of Arsenal's several games this season, and the list was very clear.

"This is the number of times Arsenal have conceded two or more goals so far this season. They lost [-]-[-] at home to West Bromwich Albion, [-]-[-] at home to Tottenham Hotspur, [-]-[-] away to Aston Villa, [-]-[-] away to Wigan Athletic, and [-]-[-] away to Newcastle."

"There is only one game in these few games that is quite special, and that is Aston Villa's game. The Gunners and Aston Villa's goals are closely linked. First, Arsenal scored two goals within 5 minutes before the end of the first half. Then Aston Villa and Arsenal each scored a goal within 4 minutes in the second half. Then Aston Villa scored another goal, and the Gunners did not score until the end of the game."

Having said that, Guardiola circled all the other games together.

"Except for this game, in all other games, Arsenal has a very interesting feature, that is, they either score goals in one breath and then lose the ball in one breath, or concede the ball in one breath and then score goals in one breath."

"Against West Bromwich Albion, I conceded three goals in a row, and then recovered two goals in a row; in the [-]-[-] loss to Tottenham Hotspur, I scored two goals in one go, and in the second half, Tottenham pulled three goals in a row; the same is true against Wigan Athletic."

"The game against Newcastle was the most outrageous. Four goals were scored in half an hour in the first half, and four goals were conceded in 10 minutes in the second half. In the end, the two teams shook hands [-]-[-]."

When Guardiola said this, he turned to look at his players.

"I don't know if everyone has noticed that Arsenal is a team that is very bad at playing against the trend. There are so many games in 21 league rounds, and this is not counting those games where they lost cleanly. This is definitely not an accidental phenomenon."

Everyone was also very surprised. They didn't expect Arsenal to have such a piece of data. This is too surprising!

To some extent, the three-to-three match between the Gunners and Manchester City is more like a separatist regime.

Of course, that was based on the fact that Manchester City lost one player in the first 4 minutes and received a penalty kick before the end of the first half. Without that red card and penalty kick, Arsenal would lose their underwear at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester City is full of confidence in this.

"After reading this data, what do you think?" Guardiola asked with concern.

Players in the conference room, look at me, I look at you, everyone is obviously surprised by this data, but to be specific...

"I think..." Su Dong took the lead and said with a big smile: "We should go all out to destroy Arsenal and kill them. Don't give them a chance to turn the situation around, and trample them on the floor hard!"

Everyone applauded and laughed.

Many people thought that Su Dong was joking and enlivening the atmosphere.

Guardiola nodded very firmly and said: "That's right, Arsenal is like a guy who bullies the weak and fears the hard. If you are soft, he will be tough. If you are tougher than him, he will immediately admit cowardice."

"So, their pre-match remarks are more like provocation and bluff, to cheer ourselves up, and what we need to do is to teach them a hard lesson from the very beginning of the game, completely bring the game into a rhythm that is beneficial to us, and use our best method to kill Arsenal!"

I have to say that after Guardiola finished speaking, the atmosphere in the meeting room became very lively indeed.

Reasonable and well-founded, the whole derivation process is very convincing, and Manchester City is suffocating, so they are naturally incited and infected.

"Remember, everyone, tonight's battle is our first battle in [-], and it's also our revenge battle against Arsenal. We can only win, not lose!"

…………

…………

In the past three visits to the Emirates Stadium, Manchester City failed to score a goal, and the last time they beat Arsenal away, it can be traced back to 35 years ago, when there was still the Premier League.

If Manchester City is a poor country pig, then Arsenal is the Chinese cabbage in the high city.

The latter has always dismissed the former, and the two have never even seemed to exist in the same world, and there is no intersection between them. In the eyes of Arsenal, there has never been Manchester City.

However, the capital injection of the Abu Dhabi consortium and the joining of many stars allowed Manchester City to improve their own strength in a very short period of time, especially in this season, the joining of Su Dong has improved Manchester City's tactical layout, so that this local pig from the countryside can finally walk in front of Arsenal, the Chinese cabbage in the city.

The last time at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City wanted to arch this Chinese cabbage, but unfortunately, due to various reasons, they failed to arch it. This made Manchester City extremely annoyed and angry.

This time, Manchester City simply came directly to Arsenal's home, everyone made up their minds, tonight, they must give the Chinese cabbage in this city, and this long-cherished wish has been fulfilled!
