There is a dream called football

Chapter 395 A Brand New Arsenal
The new season is a big change for Arsenal. Wenger bought a lot of people and sold a lot of people.

The midfielder Pires went to Villarreal.

Defensive veteran Campbell went to Portsmouth.

Gilbert is gone.

Reyes went to Real Madrid.

Ashley Cole went to Chelsea.

These are the absolute main players for the team in the past few years, so they have a great impact. Some of them are veterans leaving, but Reyes and Cole are transfers that can be exchanged for a lot of money.

At the same time, Arsenal's most important introduction is Borussia Dortmund's Czech midfielder Rosicky, who is also a replacement for Pires.

Rosicky is known as Mozart on the pitch, which shows that he is very strong, and later he was regarded as the midfielder of Arsenal's generation.

The other two important signings were the introduction of Babtista from Real Madrid and the introduction of central defender Gallas from Chelsea.

In addition, it is already the end of August. The fans have been worried that Henry will leave and it has not happened. The Arsenal club has kept silent about it. It has not guaranteed that Henry will not leave, nor has it said that Henry will leave. Everything can only be known after midnight on August 8, when the European transfer window is completely closed.

Wenger looked at his team. This is really a new team. First of all, the two central defenders. Wenger used John Julu and Toure, with Eboue on the left and Gallas on the right.

Alexander Song and Flamini for midfield.

The front midfielder is Rosicky, the left is Van Persie or Xiaofa, the right is Li Qiao, and the forward is Henry or Adebayor.

In fact, Wenger has already made preparations for Henry to leave, when Van Persie or Adebayor will take over as the main striker.

There may be no problem with this team on the surface, but the economic pressure of the construction of the Emirates Stadium is already great. Wenger has been notified by the club that it is impossible to buy again before next summer, so these are the people Wenger can use this season.

*****
The main team counterattacked, Li Qiao ran on the right, and Rosicky tucked the ball lightly into Li Qiao's running route. Compared with Pires, Rosicky's passing skills are not inferior at all, even better.

If the ball is passed comfortably, then Li Qiao's next shot will be smoother, and the ball will advance to the far corner of the goal.

"pretty."

Wenger praised this goal. The concern about Rosicky started about two years ago, but Dortmund was very rich at the time, and it was difficult to introduce Rosicky, but it is different now. Dortmund, which is in debt crisis, needs to sell the big-name players in the team. Wenger can be regarded as a leak.

But Julu's adaptation to the team is so-so. He can easily find Bei. This makes Wenger a little worried. Senderos is completely useless. Wenger doesn't want such a thing to happen to Julu.

It stands to reason that a team like Arsenal should not train their own defenders, but needs to buy mature central defenders, but there is no way. At this time, Arsenal can only train their main central defenders.

Li Qiao also knew that Zhulu didn't kick out and eventually went to the Bundesliga. I hope he can seize the opportunity this time. In fact, Arsenal at this time is also an opportunity. No money can give newcomers more opportunities.

*****
After training, Li Qiao went back with Lehman and Van Persie in Lehman's car.

Everyone chatted about the World Cup, and they were all very happy. All three of them participated in the World Cup held in Germany.

However, people in the team have different views on the outlook for the new season, which is also influenced by the media.

Most of the media are not optimistic about Arsenal's performance this season, because there are too many personnel leaving, but there are no large signings, and it feels a bit beyond their means.

At this time, the Premier League gold dollar football has slowly started. Many clubs have changed their teams and introduced large sums of money, so Arsenal, a veteran team, has no advantage.

"Have you heard that Henry may also leave. If he leaves, Arsenal will suffer a lot. We may not be able to make it into the Champions League."

Li Qiao didn't speak, and Lehmann said: "The main reason is to build a new stadium. Arsenal's financial pressure is very high, and it is impossible for us to sell ourselves to the Russians."

This is about Chelsea.

"Li Qiao, what do you think?"

"We don't understand the business of the club, and we can't manage it. Let's play our own football well. If it doesn't work, just transfer and leave."

"That's true. In fact, a club contacted me during the summer, but I wasn't tempted."

Li Qiao chuckled. In fact, there are many suitors for players at this level. It just depends on your own choice and preferences. In addition, whether the opponent is sincere is also very important. However, if you are not directly related, players will not say that they are so loyal to a team.

"By the way, it's just the three of us now. I want to know what your plans are if you transfer?" Van Persie asked.

Lehmann said: "I will definitely go back to Germany. I don't want to drift anymore. Maybe the leaves will return to their roots and go back to Arsenal."

"What about you, Li Qiao?"

"I think I'll stay in the Premier League, how about you?"

"I want to go to Manchester United and work with Ferguson."

Li Qiao nodded. Being able to play for Ferguson should be regarded as the dream of many players, just like the feeling that many people want to play for Guardiola later is a kind of belief.

"Don't talk about it, our pressure this season is greater than last season, don't forget, we haven't reached the Champions League yet."

Because Arsenal was fourth last season, the UEFA Champions League this season will start from the qualifying round, but only one round is needed, and the opponent is the Croatian giants-Dinamo Zagreb.

This is also considered to be Arsenal's first big test of the season, because this is Arsenal's most important first game of the season.

"Li Qiao, don't you think we can't beat Dinamo Zagreb?"

"It's hard to say, this kind of team actually has a very strong combat effectiveness, and we are still in the running-in period, so..."

This is true. This kind of team has not changed their main players for several years and is very stable. Eastern European football has always been very fierce. The unremarkable Croatia in 1998 is the best example, so Li Qiao is a little worried.

"But I hope my worries are unnecessary."

In fact, what Li Qiao didn't know was that this was not only his worry, but also the worry of the head coach Wenger.

Wenger still has his own grasp of the team's state. At this time, Arsenal's state is not comparable to last season. The personnel played well in training, but there is a huge difference between training and actual combat.

So for the Champions League qualifiers, Wenger's preparations were particularly meticulous, because this goal cannot be afforded to lose.

Not just honors, but more importantly, the income of real money.
