Explosive shooting at full level at the beginning, the arrival of the British Emperor Star

Sun Ke considered whether to be the captain of Arsenal last season.

At that time, Sun Ke had just joined Arsenal for a few months and could not clearly see the situation, so he could not evaluate his future.

But he still has firm belief. When his ability and influence are recognized by his teammates, he will choose to become the team captain.

I just didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

The captain's position should either be given to a player with outstanding ability and seniority in the team, such as Robin van Persie.

The Dutch striker has been at Arsenal long enough. Although his influence in the dressing room cannot convince everyone, he can boost the team's morale with goals.

In Sun Ke's view, Van Persie cannot be called a good captain now.

But the captain's responsibility in turn restricted his behavior, allowing him to gradually grow into a competent captain.

Judging from the current situation at Arsenal, Sun Ke believes that he has entered the team's core circle.

Last season, there were four people in Arsenal's inner circle, namely captain Robin van Persie, vice-captain Vermaelen, Sun Ke and Arteta.

Silva, Capdevila and Maicon are also very influential in the team, but the English of these three people has only reached the level of being able to communicate tactics, and has not passed the language barrier.

Sun may enter the inner circle mainly based on stable playing time, indispensable performance and communication skills accumulated from his previous life in mixed society.

There are not many precedents for young captains in world football, but many can be cited casually.

For example, Terry dared to reprimand senior players at the age of 20 and was promoted to captain by Mourinho at the age of 21.

This guy is a natural leader. Sun Ke estimates that he has been the backbone of various groups since he was a child.

Tony Adams is the same type of player as Terry. He became the captain of Arsenal at the age of 21.

Totti, Nesta and Fabregas all became captains at the age of 21.

Vieira and Torres are even more exaggerated, becoming captains of their respective clubs at the age of 19.

Sun Ke didn't panic at all when he became captain at the age of 20. There is a soul over 30 years old living in his body, and he is like a big brother in any team.

So, after hearing Wenger's inquiry, Sun Ke immediately replied: "I think I can bear this responsibility."

"You took the initiative to ask me, which shows that you recognize my performance and my influence on the team."

"I believe I can move forward with my teammates!"

Wenger smiled after hearing Sun Ke's words.

Sun Ke's answer made him very satisfied.

The words "take responsibility" and "move forward together" were used neither condescendingly nor condescendingly, and they clarified their future work direction almost immediately.

Wenger continued: "I am very happy that we have reached an agreement. Over the past year, no matter from my perspective, or from the feedback from the coaching staff, players, and Stuart (Pearce), it appears that you have all the conditions to become captain."

"I believe that with our joint efforts, the team will have a good time."

The two chatted for a while, and the old man said that he originally wanted to buy Cesar Azpilicueta from Marseille, but failed to grab Chelsea, so he spent 200 million pounds to buy out Maicon.

At the forward position, the old man spent 1300 million pounds to buy Giroud from Montpellier in Ligue [-].

As a result, Arsenal completed all transfers before the start of the season.

Due to the emergence of Sun Ke and the fact that Song did not leave, Arsenal did not introduce Cazorla in the midfield.

The Spanish midfielder was acquired by Manchester United for 1600 million pounds, and Sir Alex Ferguson also spent 1700 million pounds to acquire Shinji Kagawa.

Coupled with Van Persie and several other players, Manchester United has strengthened its lineup more significantly this season than in previous generations.

Manchester United and Arsenal will still be the favorites for the league title in the new season.

Manchester City, which collapsed midway through last season, failed to make key signings in the transfer market.

They wanted to buy Messi and also chased Van Persie. They spent three times their salary but failed to bring in two famous players.

As the transfer window approached, Manchester City introduced Xavi Garcia and Nastasic, lured Rodwell from Everton, and bought Sinclair, who performed well at Swansea last season.

Overall, Manchester City has not improved this season. A group of second-rate players left and a group of second-rate players came.

The next day, Arsenal officially announced that Sun Ke would become the team's captain. This captain's appointment was once again hotly discussed by the English media.

The English media have different opinions on this appointment. Some people think that Sun Ke's performance last season has withstood the test, while others think that choosing a 20-year-old player as the captain may not be able to withstand the pressure at critical moments.

Some funny media teased the appointment of the captain, which may indicate that Sun Ke has been put on the shelf.

Because Arsenal has a tradition of selling captains.

Since 2006, Arsenal has sold its captain every season.

Six captains including Vieira, Henry, Gilberto Silva, Gala, Cesc Fabregas and Robin van Persie left one after another.

Some betting companies are even placing bets on Sun Ke leaving the team next season. They believe that Sun Ke will follow the footsteps of his ancestors and leave Arsenal after becoming famous.

Some media even predict that Sun Ke's departure may help Arsenal completely get out of the debt crisis.

Because Sun Ke has just signed a new four-year contract with Arsenal, judging from his performance during this period, he may make Arsenal fatter.

Seeing these funny comments, Sun Ke also couldn't help but smile.

Based on Sun Ke's understanding, Arsenal has basically overcome the huge financial pressure this season.

Last season, Arsenal received more than 6000 million pounds in broadcast fees from the Premier League, 3000 million pounds in bonuses from the Champions League, and match day income reached 9000 million pounds.

Coupled with 5000 million pounds of commercial income and nearly 4000 million pounds of sponsorship, Arsenal's profit figure for a season reached nearly 9000 million pounds.

Therefore, after paying 3500 million pounds of debt and injecting 1000 million pounds into the debt reserve pool, Arsenal still freed up 5000 million pounds of transfer funds.

The old man spent a total of 5600 million pounds on signings in the transfer market. After selling Robin van Persie, Arshavin, Vela, Denilson and other players, Arsenal made a small profit of 400 million pounds in the transfer market this season.

Sun Ke also heard that Arsenal planned to terminate its contract with Nike and instead reach a five-year sponsorship contract with Puma worth 1.5 million pounds.

This is the financial support behind the old man's courage to break the salary system and renew the contracts of Sun Ke, Song and Sagna.

Sun Ke discovered that after joining Arsenal, the team's income in all aspects was much higher than in his previous life.

Interestingly, when the English media laughed at Wenger for making a small profit in the transfer market, Sir Alex Ferguson came out to speak for Wenger.

The Manchester United coach said righteously: "Arsena's work can be called outstanding. When the club is facing a huge financial crisis, he relies on his outstanding talents to maintain the club at such a high level. No one else can do this." a little."

"Don't forget that Arsenal is the second most successful club in the Premier League since its establishment."

"Given their financial situation, this is extremely valuable."

In the 20 years since the Premier League was established, only four championship clubs have been born.

Manchester United is the dominant team and has won 12 league titles, Arsenal has won 4 times, Chelsea has won 3 times and Blackburn has won 1 time.

Manchester United in the Ferguson era was the well-deserved hegemon of the Premier League. The combined number of championships of other teams could not beat them.

Even in another 12 years, only Manchester United's number of league championships has reached double digits.

It seems that Ferguson didn't brag either.

In the 20 years of the Premier League, Arsenal has been paying off debts for nearly ten years and has won four league championships. There is nothing wrong with the old man being called a world-famous coach.

In addition, Ferguson also commented on Sun Ke becoming captain: "Whether a player becomes captain, age and seniority are not the only criteria for judging. If his ability is achieved, he should receive this honor. There is no problem."

Wenger turned around and praised Sir Alex Ferguson, saying that the Manchester United coach is one of the greatest coaches in football history. He has made Manchester United synonymous with the Premier League.

Before the start of the season, there was a rare scene of sympathy between the two old men.

The Olympic quarter-finals are approaching, facing the British team that was overwhelming in the group stage.

The Korean team, from the head coach down to the players, started to make trouble. They said that the British team was actually not as strong as the English media made it out to be.

They believe that as long as the team is united, the South Korean team will defeat the host and advance to the semi-finals.

Seeing the lofty words of the stickmen, the corners of Sun Ke's mouth raised.

If you are so good at being a monster, you must go to the military camp to experience it!

The next goal is to send the stickmen to serve as soldiers!
