All-around center

The overall atmosphere at Arsenal is good, mainly because they have won several consecutive games recently.

Especially in the home game against Chelsea, they abruptly deducted three points from Mourinho, which also increased their confidence a lot.

But to be honest, facing Real Madrid is still a bit uncertain.

They themselves also know very well that the current two teams, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, seem to be too strong to be on the same level.

In the past, there were strong teams and weak teams, but the strengths and weaknesses were not so obvious.

But in today's football world, in the European war, the strong is strong and the weak is weak!

If a weak team wants to counterattack, it will be as good as the sky.

As for the strong teams, they just hit their heads and beat them wildly!

"Hey! Sumet, tomorrow we play against Real Madrid. If you perform well, maybe you can join them!"

Cazorla teased with a smile.

Everyone knows that Ozil wants to join Real Madrid.

With his outstanding performance in the 2010 World Cup, Ozil also had the opportunity to join Real Madrid.

But in the end it all came to nothing.

The first time was after the 2010 World Cup, when the two sides negotiated.

But Ozil's position overlaps with Kaká's, and Real Madrid is unwilling to let Kaká move out of position. It hopes that Ozil can change some of his playing methods or find other positions.

But in the end the two sides failed to reach an agreement1

The second time was in 2012. After a long period of delay, Ozil had somewhat smoothed his edges and was willing to compromise.

But Real Madrid already looks down on Ozil at this time. It's not that his performance is not good, but that Real Madrid really doesn't need him in the midfield position.

For this reason, Ozil was asked whether he could accept an adjustment, which could even be a substitute.

In response, Ozil finally signed a contract with Arsenal in anger.

Twice requested a transfer but both times were unsuccessful.

In fact, there was another time during this period. That was after Kaka transformed into a midfielder, and Ozil also tried it again.

But strangely enough, Real Madrid didn't have any reply and the matter was shelved.

Ozil himself couldn't figure out why he couldn't join Real Madrid, and his performance was not too bad.

But now, it's too late to say anything!

He is more angry towards Real Madrid and wants to defeat Real Madrid with his own hands and tell them what they missed.

However, this is not an easy thing.

Looking at Real Madrid's lineup, he really has a headache!

As for teammates' teasing, Ozil is used to it. Not only his teammates, but even the media will often bring up this matter to hype it up.

However, Ozil still retorted sarcastically: "You'd better take care of yourself, you still have to compete for the main spot in the national team!"

Ozil's meaning is obvious. He is still the main midfielder in the national team and really plays a core role.

But Cazorla has been suppressed by Xavi and Iniesta. Now that Xavi is old, he has not been able to seek opportunities to rise to the top.

Cazorla has no right to speak of himself!

It can be seen from this conversation that the relationship between the two is not very good.

This is also true. Cazorla can't stand this big-eyed guy. Regardless of his playing style, his aloof mentality is very unpleasant.

This guy doesn't have much honor, so why does he get such a huge salary, like 2,500,000 to 80,000 yuan!

If it's Suker, Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi, then Cazorla recognizes it!

After all, the honors and achievements are there. They pretend to be really awesome, but what are you pretending to do?

Cazorla curled his lips and left, and the Arsenal players were also making final adjustments.

Wenger also noticed this scene on the sidelines and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The relationship between Cazorla and Ozil has not improved. The two biggest players on the team cannot deal with each other. This is not good news.

Fortunately, the two of them had no intention of exacerbating the conflict.

Wenger believes that today's players are much easier to manage than before, and they are all very well-behaved.

If it were in the past, in the era of Henry, Pires, and Vieira, these guys would be able to take action without forcing a word.

"Huh~~~Has the analysis report on Su Ke come out?"

Wenger turned towards his old partner Patrice and said.

Patrice is also old and has gray hair on his temples.

The two have been working together for a long time, and the information can be read just from their eyes.

Looking at Patrice's frowning face, Wenger sighed; "It seems that the situation is not very good."

"It's bad!"

Patrice sighed; "In terms of information, after the winter break, Suker's overall performance curve has a clear upward trend, and he has also played more actively in the game, especially his explosive ability on the left wing. I don’t even think Henry has this explosive ability!”

As the former King of Highbury, Patrice likes to compare with Henry when comparing players.

First, this is the top player he feels most familiar with.

Secondly, this allows for more intuitive comparison.

But to be honest, Henry didn't have crazy statistics and performance like Suker during his peak period.

What's more, this is not even Suker's peak period. After all, this guy's peak period was in the previous two years, when he scored 50 goals in a single season.

Suker was scary enough at this time. He couldn't imagine what would have happened if they met Suker and Real Madrid two years ago.

"Where's the midfield?"

Wenger continued to ask.

Patrice; "The performance of Real Madrid's midfield is quite satisfactory. We can obviously see that the control of the midfield has been transferred from Kaká to Kroos. I admit that Kroos is also an excellent midfielder, but maybe he has not yet I’m completely used to this style of play, so I need Suker to drop back from time to time.”

Wenger frowned; "What if Suker's retreat was a smoke bomb?"

Patrice was stunned for a moment; "You mean, Real Madrid kicked it like this on purpose to show others?"

Wenger nodded; "I have paid attention to the player Kroos. His ability should not be as good as it appears. Judging from the current data, Kroos does not seem to have much forward passing and active attack tendency. It seems that he I’m afraid of passing it forward.”

"But if we combine it with previous data, it's not difficult to see that this guy is hiding something."

"When Kaká was playing as a defensive midfielder, Kroos was Real Madrid's offensive engine in the frontcourt. After he dropped back to the defensive midfielder, he suddenly couldn't play football? And Ancelotti is still giving him a chance? Do you believe it? ?”

Patrice blinked and shook his head: "Don't believe it! If we encounter this kind of problem, we will make adjustments as soon as possible. If we can't adjust, we will look for other alternatives."

"That's right! That's the truth! So, I think Real Madrid just released a smoke bomb, combined with Suker's swing attributes, to cover up some of Cross's effects. At the critical moment, these guys will give their opponents a blow!"

Patrice nodded and immediately said in confusion: "But... why do they do this? They are Real Madrid! Even if they don't do this, they still have a strong fighting capacity."

"It should be Ancelotti's idea." Wenger breathed out; "This guy likes to hide something, just like during the Milan period, he quietly hid Suker's offensive ability, waiting for Shevchenko After leaving, when the whole world thought Milan had lost its offensive arrow, Suker's appearance surprised everyone."

"Also, this is his first season as coach. More cover can put less pressure on the team and ensure victory. After all, he also needs honors to prove his coaching ability in Real Madrid."

In fact, Ancelotti is under a lot of pressure!

Not so big!

Wenger can understand this!

After all, Ancelotti’s predecessor was Mourinho.

No matter how Mourinho breaks up with Real Madrid, the results are there.

In the three seasons Mourinho coached Real Madrid, he won the Champions League in two seasons, and he still won it.

This achievement alone puts great pressure on the successor.

Not even Ancelotti is exempt.

Ancelotti also has many Champions League honors, but because of this, in order to maintain his reputation as a championship coach, he must show outstanding coaching performance.

"It all depends on tonight!"

Wenger looked up at the sky. It was a clear sky with not a single cloud.

But Wenger's heart was inexplicably heavy!

The away game is very crucial. Wenger didn't even think about winning, but he still had to ensure a draw so that they could gain great initiative at home.

Of course, they still say that the goal is to win, but a draw is the bottom line, and you can lose at most one goal.

Once too many goals are poured in by the opponent, they will be very passive even at home.

As night falls, the whole of Madrid gradually becomes lively.

Today's Madrid has an average of two Champions League games to watch.

One is Atletico Madrid and the other is Real Madrid!

Based on their outstanding performance, the emotions of both fans were very high.

Especially for Atletico Madrid fans, the current team has overcome the sluggish state of previous seasons and plays games with a fiery and positive attitude under Simeone.

They performed well in the league and the Champions League.

Except for the loss to Real Madrid as usual, the rest of the games were played very well.

For this reason, Atletico Madrid fans hope that Arsenal can defeat Real Madrid in an upset, so that they will lose a big enemy in the Champions League.

However, this is just thinking about it, the latter shouts mocking slogans and expects Arsenal to defeat Real Madrid. This is really not an easy task.

The Santiago Bernabeu stadium is brightly lit.

When the Arsenal players arrived at the venue, the entire area was already extremely lively.

They entered the venue from the side door, and even though it was a side door, there was a carpet on the ground entering the venue, and there was a huge Real Madrid emblem in the center of the carpet.

Arsenal players took a detour.

It's not how much respect they have, but the eager eyes of the security personnel on both sides, as if if they step on me, these guys will rush over and have a good 'theory'.

From the moment they entered the venue, they felt great pressure.

Pressure was exerted from every detail, but they could only hold on.

"Now change your clothes and go out to warm up!"

Winger said loudly.

Arsenal players put on their training clothes and began to walk out of the locker room one by one.

When they came to the players' tunnel, they also saw Real Madrid!

Unlike them who walked out sparsely, Real Madrid was surrounded by a siege. Suker was the top player in the center and walked out happily.

Immediately, the feeling of oppression suddenly hit!

Being the boss of a team is very difficult. It is not only a matter of convincing the public, but also requires sufficient performance and status.

What's more, it's a wealthy family!

But Suk. There is no doubt that he is definitely a big boss in the Real Madrid locker room, and even has enough voice to talk to the top management.

The Arsenal players looked at Suker with fear.

This guy is definitely the most threatening guy in this game!

In the stadium, players from both sides are warming up.

In the stands, fans were constantly making various noises, making the atmosphere even more heated.

Many Real Madrid fans can be seen holding a small homemade crown in their hands and waving in the direction of Suker on the court.

The meaning is obvious. Although the club has not responded since Casillas' words appeared, the fans' spontaneous behavior has basically confirmed this matter.

Regardless of official recognition or not, fans admit that Nasuk is the king of Real Madrid.

Perhaps in a few years, after Su Ke leaves, the official will completely give a tone, and it is also possible to help Su Ke be crowned at the Bernabeu.

It can be seen how much Suker is loved by Real Madrid fans.

Throughout the warm-up session, both sides were actively preparing.

After the warm-up is over, everyone returns to the locker room for final preparations.

When the preparations were completed and the players came to the tunnel to prepare for admission, Wenger and Ancelotti walked out first, and the two shook hands with smiles.

They are also old rivals. They have played against each other many times in European wars and the Premier League.

"You have prepared a lot of tactics, right?"

"No! We didn't have time to prepare anything!"

Seeing Ancelotti talking nonsense, Wenger smiled slightly.

It would be strange to believe it!

It's like a top student who gets perfect marks in every exam saying that he didn't review at all.

The conversation between the two ended at that point, and they each returned to the coaching bench to wait for the game to begin.

At the same time, players from both sides also officially entered the stadium.

The stadium suddenly erupted into cheers, and the enthusiasm was completely ignited at this moment.

The starting lineups of both sides are as follows:

Real Madrid (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Casillas.

Defenders: Arbeloa, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo.

Midfielder: Kaka, Casemiro, Kroos.

Forwards: Bale, Benzema, Suker.

Arsenal (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Fabianski.

Defenders: Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Vermaelen.

Midfielder: Cazorla, Arteta, Ozil, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Podolski.

Forward: Giroud.

Suk looked at the opponent's lineup and nodded slightly.

The lineup is a mix of old and new, and there are many old faces among them.

Wenger still loves the French striker, and after Henry, Giroud also joined Arsenal.

In the midfield position, Cazorla, Ozil and Arteta have become the most critical players.

The defense is also relatively stable.

It can be said that this is the best lineup in the post-Wenger era.

Of course, compared with Real Madrid's lineup, there is still a big gap.

Giroud, Podolski and other players are looking at Suker.

There was a hint of heat in their eyes.

It doesn't mean how much they love Su Ke, but they want to challenge Su Ke.

As the benchmark for forwards, Suker is definitely the opponent that today's strikers want to beat the most.

Any goal scored against Real Madrid brings a lot of attention, not to mention victory.

If you perform better than Su Ke in a single game, you can gain huge traffic, money and even increase your influence.

This is also what countless players dream of!

For this reason, Su Ke is now equivalent to the strongest gatekeeper BOSS, waiting for every player to challenge.

Of course, this is not an easy task and requires a lot of effort and even some luck.

There is no need to describe the power of Su Ke.

After the previous generation of players gradually withdrew from football, a new era led by Su Ke is dominating football.

In terms of dominance alone, Suker, who has won five golden balls, must be the first among them.

For this reason, the appeal that Suk brings to these forward players is not even the slightest bit.

Of course, as a defender, the pressure is not as great as usual.

Sania was a little nervous and her palms were sweating.

As a right back, he needs to compete against Suker.

But when he thought about the full-backs beaten by Su Ke, he felt terrified.

He is not an easy player to compromise, but the problem is that the opponent is really too strong.

When captain Vermaelen finished speaking, Sania couldn't help but add something.

"Keep an eye on my position, I can't guarantee to lock Su Ke!"

This was a bit too cowardly to say, but no one was surprised. It was always better to be cautious, lest he get kicked out by Su Ke after becoming arrogant.

"I will always pay attention to your position!" Arteta was the first to speak out.

Mertesacker also nodded; "I will also coordinate the defense!"

Sania nodded with confidence, and then he looked at Podolsky again.

But Podolsky turned his head away from him.

Want him to retreat?

How is it possible? He is also ready to perform well in this game. Once he chooses to retreat and is far away from the opponent's penalty area, it will be too late to rush over.

He is not like Suker. He no longer needs to prove himself. It doesn't matter whether he scores or not!

For Podolski, he still needs more goals to win resources.

This is true for both the club and the national team!

Seeing Podolski not saying anything, Sagna sighed secretly.

He couldn't ask the other party to retreat. This was not his responsibility. The other party had to take the initiative to speak.

Now looking at this posture, it is estimated that there is no intention to retreat. Sagna can only be tough now.

He is not sure if he can keep up with Suker, but he has to be cautious after all.

I hope Suker will not explode so quickly, so that he can have some preparation time.

At this time, the players of both sides have come to their respective half.

Real Madrid took the lead in the first half, and the game was about to start!
