Chapter 132 The Eve of War

As the Champions League semi-finals approach, the entire pre-war atmosphere is extremely solemn.

Last season, Arsenal came to the semi-finals of the Champions League in ignorance. They were not even prepared. For this reason, they were eliminated by Real Madrid.

This season, Arsenal clearly understand that they have been aiming for the Champions League since the beginning of the season, and now they are only three games away from lifting the coveted trophy.

On the way to the training base, Chamberlain looked haggard. He was sitting in the co-pilot. The guy who used to be talkative was extremely honest now.

Lucky turned his head from time to time, looking at Chamberlain's dark circles, and couldn't help but frown and said, "Don't tell me, you went to the bar to hang out!"

"How can it be!"

Chamberlain waved his hand and said, "I clearly understand what time it is now, and I will not make such a mistake."

Lucky nodded and said, "So, why don't you sleep?"

Chamberlain grinned and said: "I opened FIFA customization last night and played the Champions League match, starting from the group stage and reaching the semi-finals!"

Lucky raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this why you don't sleep?"

Chamberlain said with a painful look on his face; "I played three times, but damn, I couldn't beat Bayern Munich. It's a shitty game. They raised Bayern's numbers too high."

Lucky shook his head. After entering the Champions League semi-finals, pressure and tension have been surrounding Arsenal.

There's a lot of pressure on a lot of players.

Even Lucky, although he doesn't show it, runs an extra mile every day.

This is also a manifestation of inner anxiety.

Don't look at Arsenal looking stable and strong now.

But last season they fell in the Champions League semi-finals, and except for Di Maria, none of these players had played in the Champions League finals. They were all pure rookies.

After arriving at the training base, the training content is the same as usual.

Everything was the same as usual, Wenger seemed to deliberately create a calm atmosphere, and this did reduce the tension of Arsenal players to a certain extent.

A 6v6 intra-team competition is taking place on the field.

This kind of competition is mainly to ensure the cooperation and stability between the players.

Several coaches stood in different corners, holding notebooks in their hands, and two of them held video recorders to record the players.

Before the game, they must clearly understand the physical condition and status of the players.

Fortunately, Arsenal have not had any injury problems so far.

This is also something Wenger feels lucky about.

Bayern has just returned from injury, but it would be really bad if Arsenal falls into injuries.

"Okay, let's continue with the next group!"

Lucky and others walked down from the arena.

Lucky took the towel from Patrice and wiped it briefly.

Patrice, on the other hand, was squatting next to Lucky with a video recorder.

"Don't think about changing your playing style at this stage. We have already entered the Champions League semi-finals. No one can predict what the 'change' will bring at this time, so stability is the most important thing."

Lucky understood that Patrice was reminding himself not to have too much fun. The most fearful thing in the finals was factors beyond his control.

Lucky's change of style of play is certainly what Arsenal are looking forward to, but not now.

"I see!"

Lucky took a breath and said: "I just want to experience it more while I have time, and I also need to be prepared. Once Cazorla is blocked by the other party, someone must stand up."

Patrice said with a hint of surprise; "Do you think Bayern will really make Cazorla?"

Lucky; "He is our frontcourt offensive organization point. Bayern knows this very well. A team without offense cannot pose a threat to them, so Bayern will most likely target Cazorla."

Patrice: "Alsek also said that, but he hopes that the two wingers can stand up and take on organizational work at this time."

Di Maria and Sanchez are also capable of filling this role.

But Lucai felt that he was more suitable.

"Let's see when the time comes. Once they are too targeted at our frontcourt, then I will participate more in the offense!" At this point, Lucai shrugged; "It's nothing more than spending some defensive costs to fight against each other. We You must have the courage to bring down the emperor."

Patrice smiled.

He greatly admires Lucky's mentality. In many cases, Lucky's positive mentality can give Arsenal a lot of positive energy.

On the other side, Di Maria and Suarez were also sitting together.

The two are both South American players and have a certain topic of conversation, and their relationship is quite close.

Suarez adjusted his socks and said: "Do you think we can reach the Champions League final?"

Di Maria said without thinking; "Yes!"

Suarez turned his head in surprise; "So sure?"

Di Maria; "You must have confidence in yourself. If you are not confident before the game, your performance in the game will be even worse. And we are very strong, aren't we?"

Suarez nodded and said; "I have confidence in Arsenal, but I am not too confident in myself. I always feel that I will perform poorly in the game. If I can't shoot"

Suarez is under a lot of pressure.

This is mainly because the team relies too much on Suarez's shooting.

It can be said that among Arsenal's goals so far, Suarez has shouldered one-third of the scoring tasks, and even half of them.

This kind of performance undoubtedly makes Arsenal's offense extremely sharp.

But again, once Suarez stops playing, Arsenal will be in big trouble.

This is a question of pros and cons.

The advantage is that once Suarez is in good condition, the entire Arsenal will be like a chicken.

The disadvantage is that Arsenal relies too much on Suarez. Except for this goal point, other shooting points are not threatening enough.

"Do not think too much."

Di Maria didn't know how to comfort Suarez, so he could only pat him on the shoulder.

Soon, Wenger clapped his hands again to signal a substitution.

Everyone stood up and walked into the stadium again.

Around 3 p.m., Wenger called everyone over.

"Tomorrow morning we will set off to look forward to Munich, Germany. This is our second Champions League semi-final. I just want to tell you, don't put too much pressure on us. Just follow your previous performance. I can tell you very responsibly. , as long as we play stably enough, we can win the game!”

Everyone nodded.

“That’s it for today’s training, dismissal!”

"Everyone is not allowed to have any night activities at night. Go back and sleep well. Don't let me hear your name in the media reports the next day."

The Arsenal players began to wash up and then went home.

The same goes for Lucky.

As soon as he got home, the phone rang.

The ringtone was different, it was Penguin's request for a video call.

Lucky quickly got through.

Le Jianguo's hearty voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Er smash!"

Lucky smiled at the phone and said, "Dad, you guys haven't gone to bed yet?"

"Can't sleep!"

After Le Jianguo finished speaking, he said cautiously: "I didn't disturb you, did I?"

"No, I just finished training." Lucai said with his hands empty.

Le Jianguo said with anticipation; "So, the Champions League semi-finals are about to begin?"

"Yeah! I'm going to Munich, Germany tomorrow."

Le Jianguo immediately said: "Son, don't be pressured, give it your best, everyone knows my abilities, and you are the captain, you must take the lead, don't worry about the King of the South, the Bundesliga giants, etc., don't worry about them !”

Lucky smiled and said: "I'm not nervous. When the time comes, you guys will cheer me on!"

"No problem, I've bought all the beer!"

After speaking, Le Jianguo took out an Arsenal jersey from the side and sang loudly: "We Arsenal are invincible."

Lucky stopped him immediately.

"Dad, that's enough! That's enough!"

As a veteran fan, Le Jianguo likes Serie A teams. His father has been a fan of AC Milan for a long time.

However, with the decline of Serie A, these old fans began to become low-key.

Although they are not on the radar of mainstream fans.

They no longer wear red and black sword-striped shirts and shout "Milan, Milan".

But Lucky believes that one day when AC Milan returns to its peak, these old boys will celebrate extremely wildly.

but

Lucky clenches his fist!

Now is Arsenal's time!
