"Are you too enthusiastic about training?"

Patrice stood on the sidelines and said with some confusion.

The vacation has just ended, and in most cases, the players have not yet switched from vacation mode to game mode, which requires a step-by-step process.

It is necessary to use games and various means to stimulate players.

But the current Arsenal players are working extremely hard.

Whether he is a substitute or a main player, every training attitude is extremely hard.

Suarez had just completed ten sets of shooting training, and the substitute ran over and practiced 15 sets.

Suarez suddenly turned back and practiced five more sets.

Both sides seem to be angry?

It shouldn’t be a competition!

Wenger also noticed this situation and turned to Vermaelen and asked: "What happened in the locker room?"

Vermaelen grinned bitterly and said: "Kai ignited the enthusiasm of the substitutes, and even the main players began to feel pressure!"

Wenger was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Not bad! Isn't it?"

After Wenger finished speaking, he looked in Lucky's direction.

Lucky has just recovered from his injury and is still in recovery training.

But you can already gradually increase the amount of training.

Pretty much the first game there was no problem.

After the first day of training, Wenger summoned the players.

"The pre-season warm-up matches will start tomorrow. Everyone should stay in shape and everyone will get a certain amount of playing time."

After a pause, Wenger continued; "Your performance will determine whether you can get a chance to play in the new season, or even start!"

Hearing this, the players were shocked.

The hearts of the substitutes became hot.

The main force was secretly clenching their fists one by one.

Seeing this scene, Wenger smiled.

Lucky set a fire, and he didn't mind fanning the air, which was helpful for the players to accelerate into the game state.

On the way home, Chamberlain sat in the passenger seat and complained to Lucai:

"Hey! You shouldn't have said those things, it's stressing us out!"

Lucky didn't turn his head and scolded with a smile; "You have a lot of pressure, and you are also a substitute!"

Chamberlain was stunned for a moment, then became angry and said, "I will kill you!"

Lucky: "Your target shouldn't be me, your corresponding position is Cazorla!"

Hearing this, Chamberlain suddenly became quiet.

Cazorla?

That guy has so many extraordinary skills that he can be called a pervert.

It can be said that if Cazorla had not been injured, he would not have had any chance at all.

After Lucky parked the car in front of his home, the two got out of the car.

Chamberlain lives very close to here, about 800 meters away, so he comes here every day to take a ride.

Lucky doesn't mind this either.

After saying goodbye to Chamberlain, Lucky walked into the house.

Turning on the lights, the room was extremely quiet. After simply eating some low-calorie food such as chicken breast, Lucai started training again.

Since his last injury, Lucky began to consciously exercise his flexibility.

In particular, the ligaments in the legs need to be exercised to prevent them from being strained or torn again.

Lucky doesn't want to be a victim of injuries.

There is a room of about 20 square meters on the first floor, which has been transformed into a small sports piece.

There are treadmills, elliptical machines and some dumbbells of different weights.

Lucky first jogged on the treadmill for a while. After his body warmed up slightly, he began to stretch his whole body, especially his legs, which was extremely thorough.

Then get on the elliptical machine and use dumbbells to train small muscle groups.

Finally, I laid out another layer of yoga mats and started flexibility training.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening after the entire training session. Lucky then went to take a shower, rest for a while, check his phone, read the news, and fell asleep on time at 10 o'clock in the evening.

The next day, after Lucky packed his luggage, he drove to the training base.

A total of three warm-up match opponents were Parma, Lazio and Bournemouth.

Two Serie A teams and one English Championship team.

The main reason why Wenger sought out Serie A teams for training was to test Arsenal's ability to deal with defensive counterattack tactics.

Obviously, this is Chelsea who are wary of Mourinho.

It's no wonder Wenger is like this. In fact, compared to Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, Arsenal's winning rate when facing Chelsea, especially Mourinho's Chelsea, is really not high.

Therefore, he urgently needs to adapt the team to this defensive counterattack tactic.

Especially Mourinho's defensive counterattack!

That's really a master who seizes the opportunity and never lets up!

Arsenal's players gathered at the training base and immediately took the bus to the airport to fly to Italy.

On July 31, Arsenal ushered in its first warm-up match.

This is a game against Lazio.

Serie A teams generally like to organize deep, and this organizational method must also allow Arsenal's players to go deeper, and the overall formation must be stretched.

At this time, the positional sense of the midfielder and defensive line players will be tested.

Fortunately, Lucky, Koscielny and Mertesacker work together very well.

With Lucky sweeping the front line, the two defenders felt more comfortable.

But even so, Lazio can always cause some trouble for Arsenal.

Their center is Klose!

The 35-year-old German forward still has strong front-line ability in the last years of his career.

As the player most expected to break Ronaldo's World Cup scoring record, Klose has an extremely keen sense of smell in front of goal.

Lucky almost tried his best to stare at Klose and suppress the opponent, but he also almost gave up his offensive ability.

In the first half, Arsenal finally scored its first goal under solid defense.

Suarez cooperated with Cazorla to hit the wall in the penalty area, and finally Cazorla scored the goal.

After this goal, Arsenal quickly made substitution adjustments.

Wenger replaced many main players in succession and began to explore the possibility of substitutes.

The main player's performance satisfied him.

Especially Lucky, who has returned from injury, has always been a thorn in Wenger's heart. Now that Lucky has returned, he is still in good form, which also made Wenger take a long breath.

Lucky was quite satisfied with his performance in the first half.

In fact, there is no problem with him being unstable.

Most of the other people's predictions relied on calculation and experience, but Lucai relied on his default foresight talent, which made it almost impossible for him to be unstable.

If there is a problem, it is that during the long-term recovery process, the physical strength has declined somewhat.

But this thing can be practiced back. Of course, Lucky has learned a lesson this time and will pay more attention to flexibility training to prevent ligaments from being injured again.

Flamini, who came off the bench, also performed well. As mentioned above, there seems to be no so-called running-in period between him and Arsenal, and he has integrated extremely quickly.

But the problem is that he cannot completely freeze Klose's performance like Lucky.

After fighting with Klose again and again, Flamini realized how powerful Lucky was.

How did that guy suppress Klose completely silently?

Flamini also tried to restrict Klose, but to be honest, he couldn't guard him.

Even with the help of two defender teammates, he still struggled.

The only good thing is that he performed well on the offensive end.

However, this is corresponding.

He has paid attention to Lucai, so he also understands Lucai's ability on the offensive end.

In this warm-up match, it was not that Lucai was unable to attack, but he actively sacrificed his offensive ability for the sake of the team.

And he was forced to show more offensive ability, because only in this way can he equal Lucky's performance.

This result also made him extremely frustrated.

If we say, Lucky's defensive performance is 2.

He is 1 (offense) + 1 (defense) = 2.

Lucky did not show his offensive ability, and his defensive ability is not necessarily equal to 2!

At this moment, he suddenly understood how difficult it was to take off the No. 4 jersey from Lucai.

The first warm-up match ended with Arsenal 4:4 Lazio and the two sides ended in a draw.

The next day, they rushed to Parma, a city in northern Italy, for the second round of warm-up matches.

In this warm-up match, Lucky played the entire match and his performance dazzled everyone.

There were 10 steals, 9 interceptions, 5 damages, one assist and two key passes!

Arsenal also won the second warm-up match with a score of 5:3 thanks to the crazy performance of Lucky, Suarez, and Cazorla.

After two rounds of warm-up matches, Arsenal returned home.

Although there is still one last warm-up match left, that game is no longer important.

Arsenal has tested it in two games and the players are in good shape!
