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

Chapter 373 A big trick is needed to save the "lost youth"

The Community Shield ended and Arsenal won without any surprise.

However, some English media still questioned the team's formation and signings.

The doubts mainly focus on the use of Sun Ke and Royce.

Many English media believe that Royce should be placed on the left wing.

Although the talented German midfielder can play both winger and attacking midfielder positions, he played as a winger when he debuted.

And even if Royce plays as an attacking midfielder, he still likes to pass people in the frontcourt.

Once he loses the ball in the frontcourt, Arsenal will fall into an out-of-position defense, and the defense will directly face the goal scorer.

The most controversial thing is Sun Ke playing center. The English media generally believe that Sun Ke's position moving forward will cause Arsenal to lose control.

The media also cited many examples from last season's Champions League and Premier League.

When the game reached a deadlock, Arsenal relied on Sun Ke's performance on both ends of the offense and defense, repeatedly allowing the team to make high-quality offensive and defensive transitions, thereby establishing the victory in one fell swoop.

Especially in the game against Manchester City, when an Arsenal player was sent off, the game was completely dependent on Sun Ke and he finally won the game.

Moreover, Arsenal celebrities including Bergkamp and Overmars also support this view.

Former Arsenal leader Adams criticized goalkeeper Szczesny's performance in the Community Shield.

Adams did not leave any mercy for Szczesny. He said bluntly in an interview: "We reached an unprecedented height in the history of the club last season, and most of the players in the team deserve this status. , except for the goalkeeper position.”

"Szczesny struggled in the Community Shield. He made two mistakes, one of which resulted in a close call and the other which resulted in a goal conceded."

"As Arsenal's goalkeeper, he will definitely be under more pressure in the coming season. I'm not sure whether he can complete his task well."

"I understand he's young and I know he has a lot of potential."

"But the reality is we need a goalkeeper who can perform at a top level at all times."

"We went through a lot of battles last season and he was so energetic in those situations and he showed off his talent perfectly."

"But he is not mature enough when it comes to defending set pieces, and he makes some low-level mistakes from time to time."

"I can guarantee that not many teams will dare to start a battle with Arsenal this season."

"They will wait patiently. If Sun Ke is not in the midfield, we may encounter two or three situations where the opponent shoots directly in the penalty area during the game."

"Szczesny may only face two or three tests in a game. Once he loses the ball, it will cause a devastating blow to the team."

"The current situation is that all three of our goalkeepers lack a lot of game experience."

"If Szczesny makes consecutive mistakes, we can play Fabianski. His ability is equally good, but his appearances at Arsenal are not even as many as Szczesny's in a season."

"I don't know if he can withstand the pressure and shoulder the huge responsibility of guarding the goal for the European champions once he encounters a situation like that."

"If both of them fail, we have to go to Martinez, who is not yet 21 years old."

"I'm not nitpicking, it's just what it is and we have to anticipate extreme situations."

"I say this just because I hope Szczesny can improve his concentration. After all, the goalkeeper position is not a ballet stage. It requires a determined warrior."

The doubts from the English media did not have much impact on the team. After all, their specialty is to find faults in eggs.

Everyone was a little concerned about Bergkamp's doubts, but they didn't take it to heart.

After all, the height of "Ice Prince" has risen to the level of art. This guy seems to look down on the talents of most players and prefers to work in youth training.

But Adams' words are powerful. Since retiring, he has become a season ticket member of Arsenal.

As long as he is not a commentator, he must be a guest at the Emirates Stadium. He is very familiar with Arsenal's current situation.

After Adams spoke, Wenger had to personally come out to calm the doubts of Arsenal fans.

These words of the loyal warrior brought a big rhythm, which made the old man helpless.

In the interview, Wenger first explained the changes in the lineup this season: "There are many players in the current team who can play multiple positions."

"The choice we make now is the best choice for the team."

"Of course Royce can play as a left winger. Suarez's performance is impeccable. I don't plan to make any changes to this position."

"Given that this is Reus' first season in the Premier League and his injury history, the attacking midfielder position is more suitable for him."

"Of course Suarez is qualified for the center position. He was the best center in the Premier League when he was at Liverpool, but Sun is the best option for this position."

"We need a tall center who has a wide range of motion, can hold the ball in the frontcourt, and can create damage."

"Sun Ke is in the forward position and can contain the opponent's defense and a defensive midfielder in the backcourt. This can directly release the pressure in the midfield and backcourt."

"But this is just one of the team's many tactics. Our lineup is enough to deploy targeted tactics based on the characteristics of our opponents."

"The thing about Szczesny is that he has the talent to be a world-class goalkeeper and he performed at a high level last season."

"He will still be the team's main goalkeeper this season. He is improving all the time. I believe his performance will get better and better."

"Of course, the club is also looking for more insurance measures to be foolproof."

"This season, all players must use their performance to fight for playing opportunities. We will only send out the players in the best condition."

Wenger can be said to support Szczesny in the interview, because the goalkeeper position, like an actor, is a profession that requires confidence.

If a director fails to criticize actors every day, then even good actors will have to perform poorly. Besides, it is hard to say that some actors are inherently good.

If the head coach clings to the goalkeeper's mistakes every time, the possibility of the goalkeeper collapsing is almost 100%.

But as the head coach of a team, Wenger cannot make a promise to trust Szczesny no matter how bad he is.

After all, Arsenal still have Fabianski and Martinez. The former is now at the Premier League level, and the latter has first-class physical condition and huge potential.

How to do?

The capable ones go up, the mediocre ones go down!

After the Community Shield match, Arsenal arranged two more warm-up matches.

In the first game, the starting goalkeeper was Fabianski.

Fabianski performed well in this game and looked like a seasoned veteran.

Speaking of Fabianski, this guy's luck is not generally bad.

Szczesny had been injured in the first two seasons. Fabianski performed well in the first season and was originally an opportunity to rise to the top.

As a result, when Szczesny returned from injury, he was injured.

Last season, he was injured earlier than Szczesny. Szczesny was injured and he was injured. The old man could only use Mannone.

As a result, Mannone did not make any mistakes, and Szczesny returned to adjust for a period of time before continuing to serve as the main force.

In the last warm-up match before the season, Arsenal's opponent was Athletic Bilbao.

Arsenal still had the advantage with a rotating lineup, but Adams' words were like a curse, and they all came true for Szczesny.

He made a mistake at first and passed the ball to the offensive player, who kicked it into the goal.

The second goal was a free kick error, which resulted in the central defender standing and heading the ball.

As a result, Wenger had to replace Szczesny with Fabianski.

After Szczesny was replaced, he directly told the head coach that he wanted to go to the locker room for some quiet time, and the old man agreed.

When Sun Ke saw him passing by, he told the old man directly that he wanted to talk to Szczesny and followed him.

Sun Ke waited at the door of the locker room for two minutes, and then quietly walked into the bathroom of the locker room.

The bathroom window was open, Szczesny was leaning on a chair and puffing away, and there was already a cigarette butt in the box.

Mud horse!

The sample is quite exciting!

He even smoked two of them at once.

Double barrel shotgun!

Seeing Sun Ke, Szczesny put out his cigarette in a panic.

Sun Ke said coldly: "How long have you been smoking?"

Szczesny pretended not to care and said: "It's been three years. You know, I have a lot of pressure every day."

"I'm pretty strong, but compared to you..."

Sun Ke interrupted him, then stretched out his hand and said: "Take out the cigarette!"

Szczesny wanted to fight, but did so anyway.

Sun Ke took a look and saw that there was less than half a pack left, and the portion was just right.

He said coldly to Szczesny: "I will give you two choices now."

"First, I told the head coach about this and let him solve it."

"Second, we solve it in our own way and I won't tell anyone."

As soon as Sun Ke finished speaking, Szczesny said decisively: "I choose the second option."

He knew very well that even though the old man looked very elegant at ordinary times, he was really decisive at critical moments.

Sun Ke smiled lightly and asked, "Have you thought about it?"

Szczesny nodded firmly.

Okay, since I agreed, don't blame me for being dirty.
