Strong Waist

"With three minutes left in the game, Manchester United started to attack eagerly. They wanted to get a goal back, but Arsenal obviously would not give them such a chance!"

Manchester United's offense was very aggressive, and towards the end of the game, they played better.

Of course, there are also reasons why Arsenal are not attacking. It's just that Manchester United's offense seems fierce, but they have never been able to break into Arsenal's dangerous areas, let alone shoot with their feet.

As time passed, Manchester United fans basically acquiesced in the outcome of this game.

In 90 minutes, two goals were conceded.

But compared to these, what they feel more frustrated is the state of play displayed by Manchester United in this game.

When Manchester United faced Arsenal during the Ferguson era, they could not be called full-time suppression, but they definitely had a small advantage.

The confrontation between the two sides is also a famous event in the Premier League, but since Ferguson left office, Manchester United's overall state has begun to decline seriously.

Manchester United fans are a bit confused.

Obviously Arsenal also bid farewell to Wenger. Why is Arsenal's influence so small, but after reorganization, it shows stronger competitiveness?

Is Mourinho really not good enough?

Why did he perform so poorly at Manchester United but so well at Arsenal?

Throughout the entire season, Arsenal led by Mourinho performed extremely well when facing the Premier League's powerful teams.

They haven't lost a single home game, and even away games often ended in draws.

This result is already very good.

But why couldn't Mourinho do it when he was at Manchester United?

Is it Mourinho? Or not Manchester United?

Where does the problem occur?

These questions are flooding the minds of Manchester United fans.

A lot of problems, a lot of contradictions, when will Manchester United recover again?

At this time, Manchester United fans are extremely worried about their future. If this continues, Manchester United's fortune will be almost wiped out.

Beep beep beep!

Three whistles.

The first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals ended with Arsenal winning 2-0 at home against Manchester United.

With the goals of Mane and Lukaku, Arsenal has certain advantages in advancing to the semi-finals.

Arsenal players and fans were happy to win the game.

Of course, the happiest person is undoubtedly Mourinho.

Especially when the opponent is Manchester United, he is even more happy.

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho faced the media to evaluate the game.

"Actually, there is nothing more to say. I believe everyone has bright eyes and they can understand what kind of game this is!"

"For us, we didn't make any mistakes during the game, which is the most gratifying thing for me. I'm very happy to win."

Mourinho gave an evasive answer, but the media would not let Mourinho go just like that.

A London journalist asked: "How would you rate Manchester United?"

This is a sharp question.

It would be a bit provocative to let the former head coach of Manchester United, who was kicked out by the top management, evaluate Manchester United.

But Mourinho is not a shrinking character. Faced with the expectant eyes of everyone, Mourinho said directly: "I have already stated that Manchester United's problem does not exist in the first team, but"

Mourinho pointed upward and then continued: "These are the problems they need to solve. Let a person who doesn't understand football manage the club, and let a businessman manage the first team. This is simply to sacrifice the good and the bad. Manchester United is almost becoming a commercial team."

Faced with Mourinho's sarcasm, Solskjaer couldn't stand it anymore.

"Commercialization is the theme of modern football. Only commercialization can enrich a team's influence and combat effectiveness!"

"Football is not just about games, but also fans, business, etc."

Mourinho sneered; "But if you can't even play well, what's the point of talking about business?"

Solskjaer was so criticized that he didn't know how to answer.

Mourinho didn't give the other party a chance, got up and left directly.

Just take advantage and leave, leaving the other party to feel uncomfortable.

Mourinho's departure led to the end of the press conference. Of course, reporters also wanted to ask Solskjaer some sensitive questions, but the latter obviously would not answer.

After Mourinho returned to the locker room, Arsenal's players had washed up and were talking and laughing.

Mourinho greeted, and the players began to pack their equipment and prepare to return to the training base.

Along the way, the players were sound asleep.

Since entering the second half of the season, the test of players' physical fitness has begun to become increasingly severe.

Basically every game is in an extreme state.

The body has not yet fully recovered, and they are about to play the second game.

Double matches a week and high-intensity matches always make them feel extremely exhausted.

Even for a physical monster like Lucky, he just lay down on the chair and fell asleep.

From time to time, the snoring of some players could be heard in the car.

Mourinho sat at the front, turned to look behind him, and sighed slightly.

Arteta said on the side; "Their consumption is too great!"

Mourinho nodded.

Arsenal don't have enough rotation.

They are also unable to form 2-3 European war-level lineups like Real Madrid.

This is not only a matter of funds, but also players willing to play as substitutes.

As the club with the most Champions League wins in history, Real Madrid naturally attracts players who dream of Champions League titles.

For most players, joining Real Madrid and stabilizing in the starting position is a guarantee of a Champions League.

Arsenal can't do this.

So far, Arsenal has only one Champions League champion, and their Champions League appeal is still insufficient.

And this also led to a large victory gap between Arsenal's bench and main force.

The main players can see the motivation of the championship, so they play hard and train hard.

The excellent substitute was unwilling to do so and wanted to transfer and leave.

This is why Arsenal currently only have one lineup.

However, Mourinho will definitely expand his lineup next season.

This is preparation for the Champions League and the league.

There was so much snoring all the way that the bus arrived at the training base around 10 p.m.

The players were so sleepy that Mourinho ordered them to disband on the spot.

Lucky directly picked up the package and walked towards the players' apartment.

There are player apartments inside the training base.

Several rooms have been prepared for first-team players to prevent this.

Lucky was too tired to drive. Instead of driving dangerously, he might as well spend one night at the training base.

The apartment is similar to a dormitory with two beds under the table, with four beds in one room.

These were originally prepared for those youth training players.

After Lucky walked into the apartment room, Lukaku, Hummels and Wilshere also walked in one after another.

"You can't go back either?"

Lucky asked.

Hummels took off his socks and waved his hands: "I can't drive the car anymore."

Hummels couldn't open his eyes, obviously he was really sleepy.

Lukaku didn't even take off his clothes, he just lay on the bed, and soon he was snoring loudly.

Others also lay down to sleep early.

Lucky simply washed his face and brushed his teeth. After going to bed, he fell asleep immediately.

The next day, around 7 a.m., Lucky slowly opened his eyes.

The sun shines in through the gaps in the curtains, and it can be predicted that today is a rare good weather.

Lucky dialed out his phone and checked the time.

7:20 am.

According to Lucai's biological clock, he wakes up naturally at almost 5:30 every day.

Today I almost slept for two more hours, which shows that my body is really overtired.

After getting up and stretching, my teammates still slept soundly.

Lucky didn't bother them either. What they needed at this time was rest.

I got out of bed quietly and went to the bathroom to wash up. I felt a lot more energetic immediately.

"woke up?"

As soon as Lucky walked out of the bathroom, Hummels sat on the bed, yawning and looking at Lucky.

"You can sleep a little longer!"

Lucky smiled.

Hummels turned his head and looked outside, shook his head and said, "I'm not going to sleep anymore. I can't fall asleep anymore. Just wait for me for a while and let's go have breakfast together!"

"OK!"

After Hummels briefly rinsed off, the two walked out of the players' apartment, placed the package in the locker room, and then walked to the restaurant.

Arsenal’s restaurants have strict timings.

Breakfast service is from 7 to 9 o'clock, which means that if you miss this time, you will have to wait for lunch.

When Lucky and Hummels arrived, they saw a few players who had arrived early in the cafeteria.

After greeting each other, they filled their plates with breakfast and then started to eat happily.
