, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!

Christmas is just around the corner. Based on the Western emphasis on Christmas, many clubs have begun to prepare some welfare links in advance.

For example, in addition to the recent training, Arsenal players also have to cooperate with the club in some publicity and condolences work, and even invite fans to visit the club and give some small gifts.

Lucky naturally needs to cooperate with the club's celebrations. As Arsenal's captain and most famous player, Lucky's popularity and influence have meant that his workload has increased a lot recently.

However, the coaching staff tried their best to help Lucai select some activity tasks so that he would not be entangled in these trivial matters.

But even so, every afternoon, Lucky needs to cooperate with the club to shoot some videos and blessings.

And if fans visit, Lucky will also need to act as a tour guide and receptionist.

Today's fan group comes from a nursing home and serves as a tour guide for a group of elderly people, not to mention some old hooligans. This job is not easy.

These people are very obsessed with reminiscing, and most of them talk about old memories, some things and the player's name Lucai has never even heard of.

When Tottenham was mentioned, a trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of these old Arsenal fans.

"Tottenham used to lick their faces and become our mortal derby rivals. Who would respond to them!"

An old fan wearing a red hat said with disdain; "Tottenham are just taking advantage of our popularity!"

In fact, Tottenham in the last century was really not a strong team. When facing Arsenal, they could only be beaten unilaterally.

The rise of Tottenham is also a recent thing.

Of course, they are willing to take the initiative to talk about Tottenham, which also proves from the side that although they look down on Tottenham, they still feel that Tottenham is full of threats.

"We're going to beat Tottenham, right? Captain?"

The old fan shouted at Lucky.

Lucky said without looking back; "Of course, we will win!"

Lucky's answer was decisive, which made the old fans behind him laugh heartily.

They like Lucky's domineering response and attitude.

The visit ended at nearly 3 o'clock.

Lucky put these old fans on the bus and then returned to the office of team manager Martin Hughes.

"I'm so exhausted!"

Lucky lay directly on the sofa and said helplessly, "Maybe you can find someone else to do this job!"

Martin Hughes smiled; "They just want to see you!"

Lucky grinned and said, "But my energy is limited, and I can't do strength training today."

Lucky has strict control over his training, and he hates things that break his training plan.

But there are some things that he can't refuse even if he wants to.

"Be patient a little longer, there will be the last batch left!"

Martin Hughes comforted Lucky a little, and then said: "At least nothing will happen before the next game. There are only three days left, and you should be able to adjust."

Lucky nodded and said, "It's not easy to play in this away game!"

"Tottenham are very strong?" Martin Hughes looked at Lucky and said.

Lucai pondered for a moment and said: "Their state has serious ups and downs. I can't guarantee it, but once they get out of state, it will be difficult to deal with them."

In fact, Tottenham's combat effectiveness is very strong, but the state is always in an unstable situation.

This is also the reason why they always lose points inexplicably.

In addition to the excellent competitive state of a strong team, how to maintain and stabilize the state is also a top priority.

For example, Manchester City, a group that has maintained a stable state, is still undefeated.

"Pochettino is indeed an excellent manager!"

Pochettino was unknown before coming to Tottenham, but now Pochettino has won the title of European Young Coach and can be said to be one of the representatives of young coaches.

You know, the last person to receive this title was Mourinho.

This shows how much football recognizes Pochettino.

"We must win the next game. It will be a big problem for the fans to have a difficult Christmas."

Martin Hughes said with a smile.

Lucky said angrily: "Don't put pressure on us!"

Everyone wants to have a good Christmas, but the result of the game cannot be won by talking.

The two chatted for a while, and then Lucky left.

In the next three days, Lucky's training plan became regular.

Without the distraction of trivial matters, Lucai devoted himself wholeheartedly to preparing for the war.

Other Arsenal players are also under the leadership of Lucky, constantly adjusting their status and striving to face the game in the best condition.

The same is true for Tottenham on the other side.

With the enemy in front of them, neither team could relax.

Tottenham want to beat Arsenal!

Arsenal naturally does not want to lose to Tottenham.

Even though it is Tottenham's home ground, Arsenal have won many games at White Hart Lane and they are not afraid of it.

Time flew by.

The day of the game soon came.

December 14th, the 17th round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur VS Arsenal.

This focus battle in North London is about to begin.

Before the game, fans from both sides started a fierce war of words based on this belated derby match.

In the fierce atmosphere of derby games, offline real-person PKs are also common.

In response to this game, the London Police once again mobilized all personnel to regulate fan activities.

In this atmosphere, the Arsenal bus drove slowly towards the White Hart Lane stadium.

Despite being in North London, Arsenal players rarely go to White Hart Lane, where Tottenham fans gather.

Especially for players as distinctive as Lucky, once they appear there, problems may arise.

Even Arsenal's team rules specifically emphasize this.

Even if you go to a shopping mall in that area, you still need to dress up and leave immediately after buying something, without staying longer.

We can also see the contradiction between the two teams.

When the Arsenal bus pulled up to the entrance of White Hart Lane, fierce 'boos' suddenly sounded in the sky.

These Tottenham fans didn't know where they saw their arrival. They clearly isolated the fans of the two teams, but they still 'welcome' Arsenal in this way.

Faced with fierce boos, angry Arsenal fans began to flock to the other side of the street, wanting to give Tottenham fans a lesson.

But he was soon forced back by heavily armed police.

At the same time, the police also urged Arsenal to enter the field quickly to avoid any accidents.

Lucky and others also entered quickly and low-key, and they did not want to cause trouble here.

After entering the stadium, enter the visiting team's locker room under the guidance of the staff.

When the players from both sides warmed up, Tottenham fans gave their team encouraging cheers, while Arsenal were left with harsh boos.

Amid boos, Arsenal completed their warm-up and returned to the dressing room to make final adjustments.

The same goes for Tottenham.

Finally, the starting lineups of both sides were determined.

Arsenal (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Martinez.

Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.

Midfielder: Kante, Wilshere, Lucky.

Forwards: Aubameyang, Giroud, Mane.

Tottenham Hotspur (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Lori.

Defenders: Trippier, Vertonghen, Sanchez, Davies.

Midfielder: Eriksen, Winks, Alli, Dier, Son Heung-min.

Forward: Harry Kane.

Facing Arsenal, Pochettino put away the three-back formation he always played before and adopted a solid position of four backs.

Obviously the Champions League match against Dortmund is still fresh in their memory.

Putting three defenders in front of Arsenal is really no different from seeking death.

Pochettino is a person who knows how to adapt, so he decisively gave up his previous tactics and faced the game with a more stable attitude.

In terms of lineup, both sides are main players.

After all, it is a derby game and no one will relax.

In terms of injury rate, the two teams are in similar situations.

Arsenal injured Lukaku, while Tottenham injured Lamela.

However, these two players are no longer irreplaceable figures in the team, so it does not matter.

When players from both sides came to the player tunnel, the atmosphere in the tunnel suddenly became solemn.

The players from both teams had sullen expressions, and their faces showed fierceness.

The game has not yet started, but the two sides have already begun to clash mentally, refusing to give in and targeting each other.
