Strong Waist

Lucky doesn't know whether Wenger will buy Kanter.

But he is certain that Kanter will be a part of Arsenal's championship puzzle. Kanter's presence will make Arsenal's midfield sweep more intense.

And it can largely make up for Lucky's pressure on the defensive end, which can also allow Lucky to participate more in offense and organization.

Of course, all this is still unknown, and Lucky still needs to enrich itself at this stage.

Ever since Arteta asked Lucky to learn from Yaya Toure, Lucky has also been imitating Yaya Toure's playing style.

Modern football places more and more emphasis on the system. Whether a player can perform well depends largely on whether he can integrate into the new system.

In this system, the midfielder is particularly important.

At the same time, with the development of football tactics, attacking midfielders with single performance gradually began to lose their former style.

The most typical one is the Turkic guy from Real Madrid.

Today's managers love versatile midfielders.

This is like after Modric went to Real Madrid, the German lost his position. He failed to find a suitable team in the last transfer period and is still serving as a substitute in Real Madrid.

In fact, Wenger likes technical players, but Wenger prefers the technical players he has trained.

At this stage, Lucai is far from being called a technical player, but he is growing very fast and has full defensive attributes. He has a great chance to grow into an all-round midfielder.

This is also the reason why Wenger stopped recruiting players in the midfield position and increased his efforts to train Lucky.

Arsenal still plays at Arteta's pace, but from next season, Wenger is likely to use Lucky as a core player.

Of course, this all depends on Lucky trying new tactics this season.

As long as it's not too bad, according to Wenger's character, he will definitely put it into use immediately.

But this also increased Lucky's pressure to a great extent.

Rapid technological growth was impossible, so Lucky and Patrice began training in another direction.

In the equipment room, Lucky sat up and squatted down again and again while carrying the barbell.

The frequency of squatting up is very fast, and instead of getting up slowly, he stands up suddenly with a 'whoosh'.

This can be a good exercise for the explosive power of the thighs.

Frequent and rapid squatting made Lucai's thighs feel numb, stiff, and sore.

Lucky's eyes were gleaming, and he drank violently again and again.

"stand up!"

"Come on!"

"Cool!"

"Again!"

Patrice couldn't help but grin when he saw Lucky practicing with such devotion.

He had never seen anyone enjoy building muscles so much.

Bang bang!

Patrice clapped.

Lucky's quick squatting movement suddenly paused, and he quietly maintained a squatting posture.

His legs began to tremble slightly, and Patrice clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Put down the barbell and start stretching!"

Lucky immediately put down the barbell and shook the sweat off his head.

The muscles on both buttocks and thighs were a little sore. Lucai squatted down and immediately started stretching.

Patrice walked up to Lucky and said, "If you don't have enough skills, you have to know how to use your butt if you want to guarantee the ball! Don't think this is useless training. In a competition area with fierce competition like the Premier League, When holding the ball with your back, you are very likely to be hit. If you don’t want to be knocked away, then increase the strength of your lower body and learn how to use your butt muscles.”

Lucky nodded while stretching: "I've seen that Yaya Toure also likes to stick his butt out."

Patrice: "The top players know how to use their butts."

Arsenal ushered in the quarter-finals of the English League Cup.

But most of the main players in this game, including Lucky, got a rest.

Arsenal has just finished its devilish schedule and needs to take care of the league, FA Cup, and Champions League. Therefore, this game is one that can be abandoned at any time in Wenger's mind.

And it's just a good time to let the main players take a rest.

Arsenal played as a substitute throughout the game, and many newcomers got a chance to play, which gave the substitutes a chance to finally show off their skills.

After entering the quarter-finals, almost all teams in the lower leagues were eliminated.

Arsenal's opponent is Norwich.

Norwich has not performed well this season. They are at the bottom of the league points and may enter the relegation zone at any time.

The poor record also caused dissatisfaction among fans. In order to save some situations, the team made great efforts in the English League Cup.

For 90 minutes, both sides were locked in a fierce battle.

Arsenal, who were playing as substitutes, played back and forth with Norwich. In the end, the Norwich center scored a goal through a challenge in the penalty area. Arsenal lost to Norwich 0:1 and was eliminated from the EFL Cup.

The elimination of the EFL Cup made Arsenal's substitutes look very heavy. They were obviously very dissatisfied with their performance.

But Wenger did not reprimand them. After all, for Wenger, the EFL Cup is irrelevant. At most, it will only lose a training event.

Arsenal are chasing the league and FA Cup this season.

As for the Champions League!

Wenger has no idea for the time being.

With the current lineup of Arsenal, it is impossible to challenge for the Champions League while taking into account the league.

If you rush into the Champions League, the most likely outcome is that you fail to win any honors and lose your Champions League qualification!

This is not worth the gain.

After playing in the League Cup, Arsenal faced the challenge of Everton at home.

During the game, Lucky returned to his old position and played as a full-back.

There is no way!

In the past European World Cup qualifiers, Koscielny and Monreal were injured and required two to three weeks of recovery.

Arsenal's 'World Cup Syndrome' is on.

Due to the lack of defense, Lucky could only return to his old position as a full-back.

Throughout the game, Lucky's performance at full-back was sound.

After all, I have played this position before, so it is not unfamiliar.

Moreover, Lucky, who plays a guest role as a full-back, can always link up with the frontcourt on the wing where he is, and play several good attacks.

But even so, Arsenal failed to win at home.

The two sides tied 1:1.

In fact, Arsenal's current problems are not limited to the defense. Wilshere in the midfield is also in a tired state.

With the devilish schedule and the European World Cup qualifiers, this guy's physical fitness has been almost drained, and his condition has also declined ridiculously.

Arsenal's bench was unable to provide effective support.

In the past, Arsenal always entered a period of weakness in the middle of the season, but current signs indicate that Arsenal has begun to become turbulent again.

Fortunately, the Asian qualifiers have ended and Lucai's side has not been affected.

Otherwise, the professor's head will start to hurt again.

Of course, it is not just Arsenal that is affected, but also other clubs with main players of the national team. After all, the 'World Cup syndrome' is not limited to Arsenal.

The richer the family, the greater the influence.

But these teams relied on sufficient bench thickness to survive.

On November 27, in the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, Arsenal faced Marseille at home.

In this game, Lucky returned to the midfield position, while Ramsey was placed at full-back.

The reason is simple. After losing Lucky's sweep in the midfield, Mertesacker's problem completely exploded.

Therefore, Wenger placed Lucky in front of Mertesacker as an insurance, while Ramsey served as a guest full-back.

The effect of this game is obviously higher than the previous 14 rounds of the league.

Ramsey's performance at the full-back position is not particularly exciting, but he is stable enough.

After Lucky returned to the midfield, he once again showed his sweeping ability.

After supporting Marseille for a full 60 minutes, they were finally penetrated by the passing and cutting cooperation of Rosicky, Walcott and Suarez.

After scoring the first goal, Arsenal's playing environment became much easier.

In the 80th minute, Rosicky hit another long-range shot through the opponent's goal.

Arsenal leads Marseille 2:0.

Throughout the entire game, the most depressing person was Marseille forward Gignac.

In his confrontation with Lucky, safety did not prevail.

In other words, he was directly stared at by Lucai.

He couldn't catch high-altitude balls and ground balls. Although he tried several shots, he almost failed to hit the goal frame.

In the end, Arsenal double defeated Marseille in the group stage and won their fourth victory.

The current points for Group F are as follows.

1: Arsenal: 4-0-1, 12 points.

2: Dortmund, 4-0-1, 12 points.

3: Napoli, 2-0-3, 6 points.

3: Marseille, 0-0-5, 0 points.

With the final round remaining, Arsenal and Dortmund have already determined their qualification spots.

However, the two teams have the same points, and Arsenal has one more goal difference, so they are currently very competitive.

It is not yet determined who will win the first place in the group

But breaking through the group stage also made Wenger and the Arsenal players relieved.

After all, the previous devilish schedule really made them extremely uncomfortable.

But now is not the time to relax our vigilance. After all, after January, Arsenal will need to fight on three fronts, not only taking into account the league and the Champions League, but also the FA Cup.
