Chapter 50 Rival Tottenham

The 10th round of the 2016/2017 Premier League season, Sunderland vs Arsenal.

Sunderland have not won a single game in the previous 9 games and are now at the bottom of the standings with a record of 0-2-7 losses.

As Sunderland's head coach, Moyes also has a headache.

As Ferguson's successor, Moyes has moved to Real Sociedad in La Liga since leaving Manchester City, and returned to the Premier League to coach Sunderland this season.

Both parties had previously negotiated the transfer.

But when Moyes took office, there was no progress in Sunderland's transfers and no promises were made.

As a last resort, Moyes could only rely on his own connections to recruit old players such as Pienaar and Anichebe, but these still could not save the Black Cats' fall.

In the cruel Premier League, Sunderland is about to face Arsenal.

The confrontation between the top scorer and the bottom scorer.

At the same time, there are two Manchester United coaches, Moyes and Mourinho, which are still very topical.

However, the upset that the public expected did not happen.

Even though Moyes put up a 4-5-1 formation that was almost like a bus, he still couldn't stop Arsenal's offensive.

90 minutes of the game passed, Arsenal scored 4 goals, and in the final stage of the game, Sunderland scored a face-saving goal.

But this goal can be considered slightly waterproof, and it was carried out under the instructions of the referee.

At the end of the 10th round of the Premier League, Arsenal still won the game, continuing their unbeaten streak in the league.

After the game, Moyes and Mourinho even mentioned some topics about Manchester United in interviews.

Mourinho naturally had no scruples and directly attacked Manchester United.

On the other hand, Moyes' tone was more tactful, but the resentment in Moyes' heart could also be heard.

This was supposed to be a good post-match press conference, but it turned out to be a place where the two head coaches shared the same hatred.

After the game, Mourinho even made harsh words, saying that they would teach Manchester United a lesson in the 12th round of the league to let the businessmen who control Manchester United understand what real football is.

After this game, Arsenal went to the Ukrainian Division again to play the second round of the Europa League against Solya.

Even though they were playing away from home, Arsenal's performance was still extremely impressive.

In order to give back to the fans, Sorya did not adopt a completely defensive stance. After all, they had basically been eliminated and they also wanted to play a good game.

The final score of the game came to 1:3.

In the first half, with the two sides drawing 1:1, Arsenal scored two goals in the second half, completely laying the foundation for victory in the game.

Solya also recognized the result of this game, which basically means that Solya only has a theoretical chance.

After the game against Solya, Arsenal hurried back to London.

They will face Tottenham in the famous north London derby two days later.

The intensive schedule puts a certain amount of pressure on Arsenal's players, but fortunately the pressure in the Europa League is not great, so Lucky and other main players also get some rest time.

All eyes in London are now focused on the upcoming North London Derby at the Emirates Stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur led by Pochettino vs Arsenal led by Mourinho!

This will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers!

Tottenham's training base is closer to the city center than Arsenal.

For this reason, Arsenal also proposed the idea of ​​​​moving the training base to a location one mile closer to the city center than Tottenham's training base, but in the end it was shelved due to insufficient budget.

However, it can also be seen that the two North London teams are competing with each other in every detail.

Of course, compared to Tottenham, Arsenal has a more glorious history.

Therefore, many things can be left alone. Although Arsenal fans say that they look down on Tottenham and they cannot be called our mortal enemies, in every game against Tottenham, they wish they could go up and make a sliding tackle. .

The two teams have a long-standing feud.

In recent years, Tottenham has gradually risen and kicked Arsenal out of the Champions League last season. This has also caused Arsenal fans to be ridiculed by Tottenham fans.

For this reason, in this game, they want to teach the Tottenham people a good lesson.

Of course, Tottenham are not that easy to deal with, but the same is true for Arsenal.

In Tottenham's training base, Pochettino frowned deeply.

The derby is extremely important, and Pochettino also feels extremely headache for this.

Because the ability Arsenal has shown recently is a bit too strong.

After Mourinho's transformation, Arsenal changed their playing style, which made Tottenham quite inapplicable.

They have become accustomed to Arsenal's passing and controlling football. For this reason, Tottenham actively gave up the ball and pressed hard.

But Arsenal are no longer so obsessed with possession of the ball.

In other words, they can play threatening offense with or without the ball.

The defense of Hummels and Jimenez on the back line is very strong, and it is difficult to break their defense.

Lukaku is in hot form on the front line.

Aubameyang's recent form has also begun to show an upward trend.

Mane is little-known, but he has integrated well into Arsenal's system, playing the role of a wide player, and his powerful shots from time to time can also help Arsenal score goals.

The midfield line is the biggest headache.

Arsenal's midfielder is a combination that even Manchester City dare not confront head-on.

Lucky alone can increase the intensity of the midfield.

It can be said that if Tottenham wants to gain offense, they must get past the interception and steal line of Lucky and Kanter.

But is it easy?

Moreover, Lucai is capable of playing both central midfielder and defensive midfielder positions.

Arsenal can also play differently.

All these require Pochettino to study and figure out.

So far, Pochettino has not been able to find a suitable way to win against Arsenal away from home.

"Eriksson, can you compete with Kai in midfield?"

Pochettino can be regarded as having a serious illness and sought medical treatment indiscriminately.

After hearing the coach's words, Eriksson was silent for a moment and said: "I can try!"

In fact, Erikson was also feeling bitter.

What kind of strong midfielder is Lucky?

The two of them have fought each other once or twice. In which case was he not suppressed?

But when faced with questions from the head coach, does he dare to say no?

Pochettino also waved his hand, he already understood what the other party meant.

There is a high probability that they will give up the rhythm point in the midfield!

On the other hand, Arsenal's formation is much simpler.

Due to the advantage of the midfielder, Mourinho can rely on the influence of the midfielder to radiate to other positions.

Mourinho also asked Lucky if he could get the rhythm of the midfield.

Lucky's answer is full of confidence.

This also makes Mourinho more confident in deploying tactics.

Therefore, having a strong midfield line is extremely important for a team.

Both sides are preparing nervously for war.

And the time came to November 6th unknowingly.

In the 11th round of the Premier League, Arsenal played against Tottenham Hotspur at home.

Due to the recent rise of Tottenham, the enthusiasm of fans has become even higher, and the gold content of this derby has also begun to rise.

The first is the confrontation between fans.

A few days before the start of the game, fans from both sides began to erupt into various swearing battles and even fights.

This also caused the London police to be more vigilant and deal with this event carefully.

Around the Emirates Stadium, activity areas for home fans and away fans are clearly planned.

There was a fence moved in the middle to block the area, and heavily armed police officers guarded the area.

But even so, fans from both sides cursed and confronted each other across the fence.

Tottenham fans were dissatisfied with this game because Arsenal only provided them with less than 2,000 seats.

This left many Tottenham fans waiting outside the venue.

But even so, they surrounded almost half of the Emirates Stadium, shouting and yelling at the Arsenal fans on the other side.

When the buses from both sides arrived, the atmosphere at the scene also reached a climax.

"go ahead!

Arsenal!

"

"We are Tottenham! We are invincible!"

"Lukaku!

"

"Harry Kane!

"

"Aubameyang!

"

"Erickson!

"

"Mane!

"sonnny (son Xingmin)!

“Lori!

"Kay!

Amid almost competitive cheers from both sides, players from both teams entered the field one after another.

And the hot North London derby is about to begin!
