Chapter 1111: April of the Championship

Liu Feng's declaration was so simple and straightforward that after he finished speaking, the reporters in front of him were stunned.

I have seen confident ones, but I have never seen such direct ones. Even the media who interviewed Ronaldo did not hear him directly declaring that Real Madrid will win from the mouth of the former Ronaldinho.

This time the topic came out directly. Super Maple has changed a lot this season compared to his previous humility in Piacenza, or it has become more and more in line with the Premier League media's definition of a superstar.

Powerful, fiery, informal, confident, and able to create buzz.

"Super Maple challenge Real Madrid stars - we will be champions!"

"C Ronaldo declared war on Liu Feng, I will let you understand the pride of Real Madrid."

"Mourinho stood up for his disciples - Ronaldo is the best attacker I have ever seen."

"Wenger thinks Liu Feng is the most talented striker he has ever coached."

……

Talking about it, everyone is coming and going. With only a few games left in the Champions League, the enthusiasm for another match between Manchester United and Schalke 04 seems to be much lower.

This may be the benefit of challenging powerful enemies.

The first round of the semi-finals is scheduled for the end of April. At that time, Arsenal will go to an away game to challenge Real Madrid.

This arrangement has both advantages and disadvantages. As long as they can withstand the pressure of their opponents in the first round, they can firmly occupy the advantage after returning to the home court.

Before that, the only thing the Gunners need to face is the pressure of the league. They will play against the Red Army Liverpool at home in three days.

Then after another three days, go to the away game to complete the previously skipped league match with Tottenham, and three days later, continue to go to the away game to challenge the relegation team Bolton.

Finally, is the showdown with Real Madrid.

The 32nd round of the league has ended, and there are only six rounds left before the end of the entire league. After the three rounds of this month, Arsenal, which leads Manchester United, is likely to win the championship directly.

Therefore, one of these three games cannot be slack.

"Speed ​​up, I know your status very well, no one should be lazy."

On the training ground, Arsenal's training volume has been stretched to the maximum. In this important April, the professor has no worries after getting the data of the team's two team doctors.

At this time of every season in the past, it was the time when the team faced various injuries. The veteran players of the Gunners still remember the pain caused by Van Persie's direct season reimbursement at the critical moment of the championship last season.

They have worked hard for almost a season, but they fell short at the last moment. This is really unacceptable, and this is not the first time this has happened to Arsenal in the past few seasons.

Fortunately, everything has changed this season. Zhang Jing's joining has given the team an extra physical safety lock.

Whenever I feel my muscles are a little stiff and sore, Zhang can always bring a solution, which is already the consensus of all Gunners players.

The friendship between Arsenal and Ni Ji was established through Liu Feng, and now it has been fed back to Liu Feng. Having a professional Chinese medicine doctor by his side is definitely more effective than just soaking blindly.

The physical condition is good, and the mental head is also good, so it is unreasonable not to practice to death.

The Gunners have been fully trained in the past few days, from tactical drills to individual special training, and every day from the staff to the players are exhausted and go back to rest.

It was not until half a day before the game that the professor reduced the intensity of the game and gave the players a chance to breathe. Then, he stood in front of the players and announced the lineup for tomorrow's game.

"Tomorrow our formation is 433, use your strength to defeat your opponent head-on."

After going through battles and with the team at full strength, Wenger no longer needs to consider tactics that are too petty.

Playing against the opponent in the right way, and then winning the game, Wenger can finally try all his ideas about beautiful football again.

"Maple left wing, Bendtner center, Walcott right wing, midfield left to right, Wilshere, Cesc Fabregas and Alexandre Song."

Directly report all the team's midfielders and strikers, and the players who are in the best condition or have performed well in recent games and training have appeared in the starting list.

On the back line, the professor did not use a large number of substitute players. Clichy, Vermaelen, Koscielny and Sarnia all returned to their original positions.

As for the goalkeeper, the professor gave Fabianski time to rest, and Szczesny got the chance to start.

This is a full offensive lineup, and Wenger also repeatedly emphasized the team's style of play in training and in the final tactical speech.

"Don't stick to the ball too much, try to finish the ball with one kick, and the midfielder will start looking for opportunities after getting the ball as a transfer station. I need the overall speed of the team to increase."

Destroy the opponent with speed, without giving the opponent a chance to breathe.

The professor's words are very simple. Xiaofa, who is good at one-foot through, naturally nods repeatedly. His task in tomorrow's game is naturally to continuously deliver shells for his forward teammates.

As for his midfield partners Wilshere and Alexander Song, while taking on part of the offensive tasks, they also have the obligation to be responsible for the midfield defense.

After completely setting up the tactics, the entire Arsenal team went back to their respective homes to rest with a wave of Wenger's hand.

Early tomorrow morning, they will board the bus to Liverpool.

This is the first tough battle in the next three rounds of the league. It is not easy to play away at Anfield, but the morale of the Gunners is still quite high.

On the second day, they took the team bus and left London City under the warm welcome of the fans. The players talked and laughed very actively in the car.

If it wasn't for Wenger's consideration that the players might overdraw the passion of the game in advance, they might be able to talk like this all the way.

Finally, when a sea of ​​red appeared in front of the team members, the city where their opponents had arrived.

"Hey! Hey! Ho! This is Anfield!"

The streets close to the Anfield stadium have long been occupied by countless Red Army fans, and countless crazy Liverpool fans booed the Arsenal bus.

Faced with this situation, the Arsenal players are quite skilled. Those who have earphones wear earphones, and those who have earplugs plug earplugs. Anyway, no matter how loud the boos are outside, they still have to do what they want in the car.

Humans are creatures of habit. Maybe there were a few bad-tempered players who would say something at the beginning of the season, but now they definitely won't.

Stop talking nonsense and get done.
