Chapter 348 what to do

Just when Arsenal's coaches were worrying about the team's tactics, Bayern's staff and coaches were not eating.
In the match against Arsenal, right after Li Yuxin scored a goal, in an inconspicuous corner of the stands, there was a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes, wearing a peaked cap, and his appearance was also very ordinary. He belonged to the kind of object that would never be recognized in the crowd.

On his lap was an open notebook, and a pen.

A lot of things were densely written on it.

But at this time, he didn't bury his head in it and write quickly, but looked up at the court.

He is the scout of Bayern Munich. Almost the second day after the result of the draw was announced, he was called to the office by Bayern Munich coach Heynckes. Heynckes gave him a task, asking him to go to the scene to watch the match between Arsenal and Arsenal to observe the performance of the entire Arsenal team.

"Don't worry about Lee, your mission is for other Arsenal players besides Lee," Heynckes said.

This surprised the scout, he thought Heynckes wanted him to observe Li Yuxin, after all, Li Yuxin was the most threatening player in Arsenal.

But Heynckes has his own considerations: "We know enough about Lee, but we don't know enough about Arsenal..."

The scout nodded, knowing what he should do.

That's good, I can stop scribbling in my notebook about Li's part... The scout who accepted the task thought so.

Now, he is sitting in the crowded Manchester City Stadium, quietly admiring every wonderful performance of Li Yuxin.

He finally didn't have to study Li Yuxin's strengths and weaknesses.

But the occupational disease still made him unconsciously notice those details.

Li Yuxin on the wing is still running like the wind, and every step is very powerful, which shows that his muscle strength after switching to the center is not only not damaged because he is far away from the wing, it may even be stronger than before playing the center...

Also, he's very skilled on the ball and has a great rhythm with the ball, as always.

His mentality and technique have not been affected by the transposition either...

If Bayern Munich faced such a Li Yuxin in the game, I am afraid it would still be difficult to deal with... oops.

The scouts thought about it, he didn't need to observe Li Yuxin himself, how to deal with Li Yuxin is also a problem that Heynckes needs to consider, why did he accidentally think about it again?

Thinking of this, he smiled and shook his head.

At the same time, the video of the Arsenal game was sent to Heynckes immediately after the game.

This will help him analyze Arsenal's state and come up with targeted strategies.

Although he didn't write a word about Li Yuxin in the scout's game report, but in the game video, Li Yuxin is still the most eye-catching person in this game.

Arsenal's first goal was created by his pass, and then he scored the second goal in a counter-attack.

It can be said that this second goal made Arsenal realize that it is difficult for them to beat Arsenal.

After the game lost suspense.

Li Yuxin is still the soul of Arsenal. His performance in this game may not be too outstanding in the eyes of ordinary fans, but in the eyes of Heynckes, he is simply Yuxin.

He had hoped that scouts would bring him more performances from other Arsenal players.

But now after watching the video of the game, his mind is full of Li Yuxin.

It can't go on like this...

Heynckes turned off the TV and couldn't continue to watch it. Looking at the game video, it is easy to think that there is only one Li Yuxin in Arsenal, and everyone else is empty.

But this is clearly not true.

He picked up the game report given to him by the scouts again, and wrote clearly at the beginning of the game report: "...Arsenal has changed a lot compared to the past, especially compared with last season, they have improved their overall strength. Apart from Li, other Arsenal players also need special attention..."

And after the game,
Li Yuxin was asked by reporters in the mixed zone after the game why he ran all the way to Ramsey to celebrate the goal after scoring.

Li Yuxin said this: "I want to thank him. If he hadn't cut off David Silva's ball, we wouldn't have been able to form a quick counterattack, and I wouldn't have scored so easily. So I'm going to hug him."

While talking, Ramsay passed behind Li Yuxin.

Li Yuxin grabbed him, pulled him to his side, and faced the media reporters with him.

"He is really good, and he still has goals!" Li Yuxin pointed to Ramsey and said to the reporters.

As soon as the words fell, the flashing lights of the cameras on the scene dazzled Ramsey's eyes, and the shutter sounded together.

Ramsey didn't expect to face such a battle, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

If Li Yuxin hadn't been pulling him, he might have fled.

He really didn't expect that Li Yuxin would give such a high-profile opportunity...

After the reporters saw Ramsey, they also ran to Ramsey with questions. They really wanted to ask too much about Ramsey.

So Li Yuxin patted him on the shoulder as encouragement and left. Before leaving, he turned around and gave him a thumbs up.

Ramsay smiled at this scene.

What a... good captain!

However, a few days later, the league match with Wolves on April 4!In the second half, Lee Woo-shin gave Arsenal the lead again with a header.

Arsenal look set to win this game.

But at this moment, Li Yuxin fell to the ground in a scramble, and then the team doctor who went up made a gesture of substitution...

"Substitution! The team doctor requested a substitution! Li looks like he can't continue the game... This is a thunderous blow for Arsenal! The team's tactics are completely around Li. If Li is gone, the tactics will change drastically..." Mortensen shouted.

No matter how reluctant Wenger was, he could only replace Li Yuxin.

The impact of Li Yuxin's injury and leaving the field not only made Arsenal lack a core, but more importantly, it shook Arsenal's military spirit-Li Yuxin has always been the pillar of Arsenal, and his performance on the court made the players spontaneously trust him and rely on him.

But now that he's off the field... many Arsenal players are suddenly confused-what should we do?
Although the score was leading, the Arsenal players suddenly didn't know how to play.

And Li Yuxin's injury boosted the morale of the Wolves team - the most threatening monster is gone, what else do we have to be afraid of?

In this way, the situation of the game changed dramatically after Li Yuxin left the field.

The Wolves played more and more vigorously, and the more they played, the more they played, but the more they played, the less confident they were, and their state was completely lacking.

Fortunately, Wenger adjusted in time!
In the end, the 1:1 tie with Wolves allowed Arsenal to chase three goals in a row in the second half. At home, they lost with a score of 2:4!
"Five rounds in a row! Arsenal continue to catch up!" Mortensen said at the end of the game.

"It's not surprising at all." Alan Hansen complained coldly.

"The next game is the Champions League semi-finals. Li's injury is unknown. I think Arsene must be anxious like an ant on a hot pot... For Heynckes, Li's injury is good news. If Li can't play, he won't have to worry about how to defend this stronger 'monster'..."

"If you lose the game against Bayern, I think it will be another blow to Wanger's life at Arsenal. For Wenger, this is undoubtedly a relief..." Alan Hansen said.

"I hope Lee's injury is not too serious-a player like him is definitely an asset to all of us on the court..." Mortensen said with emotion.

On the eve of the UEFA Champions League, at home at night, Li Yuxin had just finished his inspection, and when he returned home, the TV in the living room was on, but there was no one there.

Shuo Shuo should take the child to bed.

The news footage of the Bayern Munich team arriving in London was broadcast on TV.

On the TV screen, all Bayern Munich players filed out from the aisle of the airport. There was a burst of cheers from the fans and the sound of reporters pressing the shutter of the camera.

But at this moment Li Yuxin couldn't be happy anymore,
back halftime,

"How is my injury?" In the locker room, Li Yuxin asked Mendes who had just arrived.

At this time, Arsenal's home game against Arsenal is still going on.

"Fortunately, it's not an injured right ankle. There's no major problem." Mendes said after asking the team doctor.

When Li Yuxin was injured and walked off the field with the help of the team doctor, he left Shuo Shuo's box and went straight to the locker room.

For many people, the locker room is a sacred place, and other people cannot be allowed to enter casually.

But Li Yuxin has privileges at Arsenal, and Li Yuxin's agent Mendes also has some privileges, including that he can enter and leave the Arsenal dressing room at any time. Although he is not in the Arsenal coaching staff and is not considered an employee of the Arsenal club, he has such power.Of course, this is also because he is Arsenal's ace agent.

Li Yuxin showed a relaxed expression on his face - he was quite nervous when he was injured just now, after all, he had tasted the pain of a serious injury before, and he didn't want to experience it again.

But what Mendes said next poured cold water on Li Yuxin: "But you won't be able to play in the next round of the league."

Li Yuxin looked at him in surprise.

"Although your injury is nothing serious, you still need to rest for at least a week, so to be on the safe side, you will definitely not be able to participate in the next round of the league and the semi-finals of the Champions League."

"You know the next round of the league..." Li Yuxin asked.

Before Li Yuxin finished speaking, Mendes nodded: "Of course, the next round is the Champions League semi-final. But you can't play such a crucial game, because you will work harder in this kind of game, which will aggravate your injury."

"But the team needs me..."

"Arsenal is not your team alone, Lee." Mendes said with a straight face, very serious. "You should trust your teammates, they have the ability to win the game..."

But when Mendes said this, neither he nor Li Yuxin knew that on the outside court, Arsenal had sounded the horn of counterattack, and Arsenal was watching in panic as the fruits of victory were being eaten away by Arsenal...

"I don't think you want to have the experience of not being able to play for eight months again?"

Looking into Mendes' eyes, Li Yuxin thought for a long time, and finally sighed: "Okay..."

He is very reluctant, but he is even more unwilling to aggravate the injury and miss more games.

When the game was over, Li Yuxin saw his teammates come back happily in the locker room. No need to ask, he also knew the result of the game-Arsenal won again.

At the same time, outside the locker room, a tired Wenger was communicating with the team doctor and Mendes with a worried expression on his face: "How is Lee's injury?"

"Not too serious..."

The team doctor hadn't finished speaking when he saw a relieved expression on Wenger's face.

"but……"

He continued.

Hearing his words, the relieved expression on Wenger's face immediately froze.

"He will not be able to play in the next round against Bayern Munich." The team doctor finally finished what he wanted to say.

Wenger stared blankly at the team doctor and Mendes, his eyes full of doubts and... He was not prepared for what the team doctor said suddenly.

It took him a second to react, and he asked aloud with some excitement, "Why?"

"Although it's not serious, it's still an injury after all. To be on the safe side, he must rest for at least a week. This is an expert's opinion." Mendes said with a straight face.

He is not Arsenal's team doctor, nor does he belong to the coaching staff managed by Wenger, so he does not have to consider Wenger's mood when he speaks and does things.

He didn't want to leave Wenger with some fluke delusions, and he didn't want Wenger to feel that there was any possibility of winning Li Yuxin's appearance.

"But the next game..."? Wenger was a little angry and anxious, and his voice was louder than before.

"It's the semi-final of the Champions League, I know. But Lee can't play, otherwise his injury could become serious."

"But that's just a possibility, it might get serious, it might not..." Wenger continued to convince Mendes.

"We can't take this risk, Mr. Wenger. I can't take this risk with Lee's health. Even if the team loses to Manchester United due to Lee's absence, at least Lee is still healthy, and you can win the next round of the league. If Jean is seriously injured again and misses a few months of the game, I think you will never have a chance to come back." Mendes said with a straight face.

? Wenger looked at Mendes, who had no room for negotiation at all. He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Although I am the team's head coach and manager, I have the right to decide who can play and who can't! Then you should also refer to the doctor's opinion." The words of Mendes and the team doctor made Wenger calm down.

"Arsene, I'm not Arsenal's team doctor, I'm Li's agent, so I'm only responsible for Li's health, but you also know how important Li is to Arsenal." The implication is that I don't care about the team's win or loss and the life and death of you, the head coach.

Seeing Mendes being so strong, Wenger didn't expect it. He froze for a moment, then frowned and said, "I think you should ask Li for his opinion when making this decision..."

Wenger knew that Li Yuxin wanted to play a game, especially an important game like the Champions League semi-final. This was his fourth Champions League semi-final since joining Arsenal.

He can't persuade Li Yuxin to give up, but Mendes will definitely be able to!
Unexpectedly, Mendes spread his hands, shook his head and said, "I have already talked with Li, and he agreed with my arrangement. I am his agent and you are the head coach. I know his physical condition very well. I told the team doctor's opinion that it is no good." Mendes gave Wenger a satisfactory answer, and he ended the conversation very unhappy.

Seeing that he turned to leave, Wenger said loudly to him: "Jorge, let me tell you the rest..."

"How is his injury, Mr. Mendez?" Just after leaving, Mendez's cell phone rang, and he picked it up, and it was Shuo Shuo calling.

"It's not serious, but it needs a week off. So he won't be able to play in the next game." Mendes replied.

"But it was the semi-final of the Champions League..."

"Yes, I told him, and he agreed not to play this game. It's okay, you don't have to worry, Shuoshuo."

"Well, thank you, Mr. Mendez."

"You're so welcome, Shuoshuo. I'm Li's agent, and this is what I should do." Mendes laughed.

In the post-match press conference, Wenger looked very calm. Everyone thought it was because Arsenal defeated the Wolves under unfavorable circumstances. Although Li Yuxin was injured, it was still good, but in fact Wenger was already worried about his position...

In many previous matches, he had been given an ultimatum. He thought he was doomed. Unexpectedly, Li Yuxin scored a wonderful goal in the game and saved the fate of himself and the team.

Now his Arsenal is at the most dangerous time again, even more dangerous than last time, because this time there is no Li Yuxin to save him...

Arsenal without Li Yuxin, even if they are playing at home, how can they face the impact of Bayern like the 2006 Champions League final?

Wenger has no confidence in that at all.

The reporters also asked about Li Yuxin's injury, and Wenger had to force himself: "His injury is not serious..."

"So can he play in the next Champions League semi-final?" asked the Manchester Evening News reporter.

This question almost made Wenger walk away, but he still held back and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "It depends on the specific results of the injury test..."

He didn't directly tell the reporters that Li Yuxin would miss the next game, not that he still wanted to get Li Yuxin's chance to play, but that he didn't want to disturb the morale of the army...and affect the team's preparations.

However, Li Yuxin will be absent from the match against Bayern Munich. This news has not been concealed for long. Two days later, the media began to spread the news that Li Yuxin will be absent from the Champions League semi-finals.

Reporters blocked outside the Kearney training base, wanting to interview Li Yuxin and get the latest news from Li Yuxin.

However, both Shuo Shuo and Mendes have already told Li Yuxin that it is best for him to keep silent on this matter before the official announcement.So Li Yuxin did not accept any media interviews, nor did he answer this question.

And Wenger's answer has always been ambiguous. He did not say that Li Yuxin will definitely miss the game, but he also did not say that Li Yuxin will definitely participate in the Champions League semi-finals.

A few days before the game, this became the most concerned news in the entire English football world-whether Li Yuxin can catch up with his first Manchester Champions League semi-final.

Arsenal fans certainly hope that Li Yuxin can catch up with the game. After all, with Arsenal's current state, if they want to beat Manchester United at home, they really can only count on Li Yuxin.

But unfortunately, the day before the game, when Wenger finally announced the starting lineup for the game, Li Yuxin still did not appear in this list, and not only the starting list, he did not even enter the final 18-man squad, which means that he did not even have the opportunity to participate in the semi-finals of the Champions League as a substitute...

"Lee's injury has not completely healed. To be on the safe side, we let him continue to rest. After all, Arsenal need a fully healthy Lee, not an injured Lee..." Wenger said at the pre-match press conference.

A group of reporters looked at each other.

Li Yuxin missed the Champions League semi-final? !

The biggest gimmick...it's gone!
