Chapter 95 Foul tactics of the relegated team

News about Lucky and Mbappé continues to emerge, and the media from both sides are constantly attacking each other.

But soon, Mbappe was the first to respond.

On his social networking site, Mbappe said:

"I don't like this comparison. Kai is a good player and so am I. Why not admit that we are both good and we must choose a stronger one? Our positions are different and the way we play is different. And the responsibilities are different, so I hope the media can be quiet and let us play the next game well! Lucky (thumbs up)"

The current Mbappe is still the same director. The fledgling Mbappe is still full of love for football and has the same respect for the strong.

His announcement silenced the media for a moment.

Seeing the other party mentioning himself, Lucai had no choice but to respond.

But Lucky's response was much simpler.

"He is an excellent player. He is playing in the Champions League and I am playing in the Europa League. This already shows the problem! Mbappe (thumbs up)"

Lucky's frank response completely dampened the topic and public opinion.

Lucky and Mbappe were also praised by many people for this.

In the face of media hype and comparisons, they have maintained what players should be like.

Just focus on the game and that's enough!

After Arsenal enters the Europa League quarter-finals, their next round of matches will begin on April 14.

Before doing that again, they can focus on the league.

Now Mourinho has made up his mind to give up the FA Cup.

They cannot spend their limited energy on this.

Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City no longer have the pressure of European competitions, which allows them to deal with competitions on other routes more calmly.

Unfortunately for Arsenal!

Forcing a three-front battle is likely to encounter very bad results.

So it's time to make sacrifices.

Of course, Mourinho did not say it clearly. After all, the Football Association is there. He clearly said, "We give up the FA Cup. Your topic of not being valuable enough will only make the Football Association, which already has some opinions on Arsenal, even more angry." Hate them.

But Arsenal's actions were all expression.

In the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Mourinho gave most of the main players a holiday and only brought some of the main players and a large number of substitutes to play.

There is no doubt that in the FA Cup match against Manchester City, Arsenal finally lost the game to the opponent 1:3.

Manchester City was able to take another step forward, and Arsenal also came out of the FA Cup and were able to focus on the league and the Champions League.

In the 29th round of the league, Arsenal was tied 1:1 by West Brom in the away game.

Throughout the game, West Brom's pressing and defense were very good and did not give Arsenal too many opportunities.

Among the effective opportunities, West Brom successfully created points and scored a goal.

Although Arsenal equalized the score in the second half, it was still a draw in the end.

Arsenal failed to win the game but luckily Chelsea lost.

In two games, they have only taken one point, which is good news for teams chasing points.

However, Manchester City is in trouble. After the winning streak started, Manchester City became extremely fierce in the point-grabbing battle. Now they have won 7 consecutive games and are looking to sweep everything.

Arsenal couldn't intervene because the match between them was over.

Arsenal is still in a passive situation.

But fortunately, Arsenal's goal this season is only to qualify for the Champions League.

Of course it would be even better to win the championship.

In the 30th round, Arsenal won the Hammers 3:0.

West Ham United is not yet the team that said, "It's up to the Hammers to decide whether London is in chaos or not." At this time, they are still a points-raising machine for the major teams.

Arsenal successfully secured the three points, ensuring that the problem in the standings was eliminated.

In the 31st round, Arsenal faced Swansea away from home.

Swansea are currently hovering near the relegation zone, and any loss could put them in a desperate situation.

Therefore, they fought extremely fiercely throughout the game.

Arsenal was naturally not embarrassed, and the confrontation between the two sides was extremely fierce.

The yellow cards alone were more than expected. Arsenal received four yellow cards, while Swansea received six.

Both sides failed to score in the first half. At the beginning of the second half, Arsenal created a set-piece opportunity.

Lucky took the penalty kick.

This set kick was designed extremely cleverly. Lucky did not pass the ball directly, but swept it to Aubameyang who ran out of the penalty area.

After the two sides played a two-on-one match, Lucai took advantage of the situation and struck horizontally.

The ball landed just in front of Lukaku. Lukaku poked with his toe. The ball hit the opponent's goalkeeper's ankle and bounced into the net.

Arsenal finally got a goal.

After this goal, Swansea began a crazy counterattack.

These teams that are in the relegation zone are the most unstable factors at the end of the season. No one knows what they will do.

But Swansea is obviously not sensible enough.

Their midfielder Jack Cole, who was already receiving a yellow card, made a kick with his foot after being interfered by Lucky and almost hit Lucky's chest.

Lucky narrowly avoided it, but before Lucky could get angry, the referee's sharp whistle sounded.

And two yellows turned into one red, and Jack Cole was sent off with a red card.

Now, with Swansea one less player, things got even worse.

Lucky, on the other hand, felt a little depressed and wanted to clean up his opponent, but the referee's timely intervention prevented Lucky from having an attack.

However, Mourinho also took Lucky off the field at the same time. Now Lucky is missing out on the field. These Swansea players who have been demoted and lost their minds do not know what they will do.

Sure enough, the next game was almost a venting process for Swansea.

Although Arsenal took some protective measures, Wilshere and Aubameyang were still injured.

Mourinho could only make another substitution and pray that he wouldn't get injured again.

The referee took out cards more frequently and gave out a red card again.

Two red cards in a single game completely caused Swansea to lose hope of overtaking the game.

Arsenal also won the game without any danger.

After the game, Mourinho loudly condemned Swansea's foul tactics, calling it dirty football.

However, Swansea's head coach had a look of indifference. Since there was no hope anyway, he was done with it.

The entire post-match press conference was filled with the only voice of accusation from Mourinho.

The only good news for Arsenal is that Wilshere and Aubameyang are not seriously injured.

But even so, this game still frightened Mourinho.

Therefore, no one wants to touch the relegated team.

These guys will lose their minds while kicking. Who can stand this?

Arsenal relied on the injuries of two players to win against the relegated team, which was considered a tragic victory.

And they have to face the Europa League quarter-finals without Wilshere and Aubameyang.

In this quarter-final, their opponent is Manchester United from the same division!

In the league, Arsenal defeated Manchester United in the first half of the season. Now with two main players injured, they have to face Manchester United again in the Europa League.

Manchester United obviously wants to seize this opportunity and take revenge.

This game will naturally become the focus of the Europa League.

But for Arsenal, the absolute core of Lucky was not injured, which is the most gratifying news.

With Lucky's presence, they have confidence.

Looking at Lucky's record, he has really never lost to Manchester United since his debut.

And the topic of Lucky and Pogba was also mentioned again.

Mourinho initially criticized Pogba, using Lucky as an example to compare and belittle Pogba.

This made Pogba and Manchester United extremely angry.

In the first half of the season, they were defeated by Arsenal when Lucky was injured, which also made them feel humiliated.

In recent games, Manchester United has been in good form and they want to regain their face.

However, facing Arsenal with Lucky in charge, Manchester United and Manchester United fans always feel unsure.

After all, they really have never defeated Lucky once!

After Sir Alex Ferguson retired, Lucky also completely served as Arsenal's starter. Since then, Arsenal's games against Manchester United have always ended with them losing or drawing the first game.

Starting from 2013, four full seasons and eight league games!

Their record against Arsenal was 0 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses, which was abysmal!
