Following the first warm-up match, Arsenal played two more warm-up matches.

They played against Barcelona in La Liga and Bayer Leverkusen in Bundesliga.

The warm-up match between Arsenal and Barcelona undoubtedly attracted great attention, but the two sides did not open viewing channels for the game. This was only an internal warm-up match.

The main reason why Arsenal chose to play a warm-up match with Barcelona was because of their relationship with Manchester City.

And Barcelona also wants to test their strength.

No one knows how this game went, but the two sides directly turned into a goal battle.

The score soared to 5:5.

For Barcelona, ​​Suarez scored and Messi scored twice.

For Arsenal, Lukaku, Wilshere, Mane, Aubameyang and Giroud, who came off the bench, blossomed in many aspects.

Lucky received four assists!

Although no video information was provided, just looking at the score, you can tell that this must be a battle between dragons and tigers.

After this game, Arsenal will have a final warm-up match with Bayer Leverkusen of the Bundesliga. After this game, Arsenal will prepare for the first round of the season.

This game was also the only warm-up match that Arsenal won.

Winning Leverkusen 2:1, Lucky scored two goals.

At this point, Arsenal's pre-season warm-up matches are all over.

On August 5, 2017, there was only one week left before the league’s opening game.

During this time, all parties are also rushing to carry out final debugging.

This week's Community Shield has become the starting point for the Premier League's opening game.

Last season's Premier League champions Manchester City faced off against the FA Cup champions Liverpool.

Guardiola's team fought fiercely with Klopp's players for 90 minutes, and finally Liverpool won the Community Shield championship trophy, which was considered a good start.

Liverpool ranked fifth in the standings last season, but because Arsenal won the Europa League and directly participated in the Champions League group stage, the league qualifications were shifted and Liverpool also qualified for the Champions League qualifying rounds.

However, they have to play in the group in advance to qualify for the play-offs, but with Liverpool's condition, it's not a big problem.

If everything goes well, five Premier League teams will participate in the Champions League group stages.

After the Community Shield, all teams have begun nervous preparations for the first round of the Premier League.

Arsenal is the Premier League opener and they will face Leicester City in the first round.

Leicester City performed poorly as the defending Premier League champions last season. Although they were not relegated, they lost a large part of their public opinion and popularity.

And after the popularity of the so-called Leicester City Miracle subsided, it was unable to continue to bring any help to this team.

However, taking advantage of the popularity, coming to Manchester City is also making a lot of money. It is estimated that financially it is one of the healthiest clubs in the Premier League.

After all, this season's Premier League giants and many teams are investing heavily in transfers.

Arsenal's transfers are all based on Giroud. Although the investment is not much, it is still a lot.

However, combined with some loaned and sold players, the cost was less than planned.

After Mourinho obtained the transfer power, he stopped spending money lavishly and began to calculate carefully.

Although there is no gimmick of the past, this Arsenal does not need to attract attention in this way.

Based on their performance last season and their status as Europa League champions, although Arsenal ranked fourth in the league standings last season, they still belong to the first tier in the Champions League.

But before that, Arsenal still needs to solve a problem.

‘Lubricant’!

"Judging from the performance of the last three games, Wilshere and Ramsey are the best options for this role. Compared with Wilshere, the cooperation between Ramsey, Giroud and the winger There needs to be more tacit understanding.”

Arteta said; "I think we should focus on cultivating Ramsey's compatibility with this set of tactics."

"I feel the same way. If Ramsey can join this lineup, then we will have more flexible ways to deal with it in the midfield position. Ramsey and Wilshere's rotation is not unrelated."

The coaches had their say.

Mourinho, on the other hand, is closely watching the defensive video of the game.

In the video, there are scenes of Wilshere and Ramsey cooperating.

In terms of coordination, Wilshere and Ramsey's choices are completely different.

Ramsey will more often choose to play for the two wings to help the center attract firepower.

But Wilshere charged directly into the battle, playing a simpler but more impactful game.

However, the success rate is not high.

After Mourinho thought for a moment, he waved his hands and said, "That's it for today's discussion. As for who will play this role, I still need to think about it."

After speaking, Mourinho said to Arteta: "Call Wilshere for me!"

Five minutes later, Wilshere arrived in Mourinho's office.

Wilshere was a little uneasy. After all, anyone who is called to the head coach's office alone has this mentality. There is almost no good thing in being called out alone.

But Wilshere racked his brains and couldn't figure out what mistake he made.

"sit down!"

Mourinho invited Wilshere to sit down, immediately pulled out a laptop from the side, pressed the Enter key, and the video on the screen began to play.

The quality of the video is a bit old. This is a video of Wilshere playing football seven years ago.

In the video, Wilshere's skills at his feet are brilliant, and he is extremely sharp and chic.

As a rare technical player among British players, Wilshere was a pure breakthrough player in the past.

Wilshere didn't understand why Mourinho showed this video to him, and he looked up in confusion.

Mourinho pointed to the laptop and said: "How confident are you if you are asked to play football like before?"

"Play like before?" Wilshere pondered upon hearing this.

After the transformation, Wilshere is now a midfielder who prefers to organize rhythm. Although there are occasional breakthroughs, they do not happen frequently.

This is very different from his age and changes in his playing style.

It is not easy for him to return to his previous style of play.

"I don't have much certainty!" Wilshere said bluntly, and then added; "But I can try."

He didn't dare to refuse, who knows what Mourinho was thinking.

Once you refuse, there will be a question mark on what will happen to you.

Mourinho was very satisfied with Wilshere's attitude. He smiled and said: "I hope to bundle you with Giroud. Although the coaching staff believes that Ramsey and him cooperate better, what I need is not a transfer. But a breakthrough!”

"If we carry out the most effective and sharpest counterattack in the shortest time!"

Mourinho said seriously; "You need to pierce the opponent's heart directly like a sharp arrow. This is the center forward's retreat that I want to see!"

Wilshere returned to the training ground with an extremely serious expression.

Lucky walked over and asked, "What did you say?"

Wilshere didn't hide it, sighing; "He let me play like before."

"Before?" Le Kai was puzzled.

"breakthrough!"

Wilshere continued to sigh; "So I'm going to start working on foot frequency, changes of direction, and start losing weight recently!"

At this time, Wilshere looked up and saw the young Saka continuously shaking left and right in the field, directly knocking the bulky Ramsey to the ground.

"Damn 17 years old!" Wilshere became more and more angry.

Lucky smiled and patted the other party's shoulder and said, "Come on!"

All we can do is work hard!

Wilshere wants to take this position and continue to consolidate his main position. To do this, he must obey Mourinho's arrangements and play the style the opponent wants.

"Mikel is helping me get the equipment for training changes of direction and counting the seconds for me. It's best to help me retrieve the previous records of changes of direction from the database for comparison!"

Hearing this, Arteta nodded, turned and left.

After a while, there were deflection poles, phase discs, resistance bands, climbing racks and even frequency training equipment.

Wilshere directly praised this.

“Awesome!”

Arteta smiled and said: "Then let's get started!"

Beep! !

The whistle blew and Wilshere began a grueling footwork and change of direction drill.

As for Arteta, he helped the opponent record.

In fact, from the time Mourinho called Wilshere over, he basically understood that compared to Ramsey's style, Mourinho preferred Wilshere's sharp attack style.

For this, he was also prepared!

After all, the assistant coach's job is to help the head coach share the work pressure.
