Chapter 1281 Unfriendly schedule

The last game in November ended like this. Although the Gunners' league winning streak was finally interrupted, they still sit firmly on the top spot in the standings.

After the draw with their opponents, the players still got a one-day vacation. Everyone stayed at home to spend November and usher in December.

The weather in London has started to become gloomy and cold, and the sky is still raining from time to time. On this day, when Liu Feng wanted to play ball in the backyard, it began to rain lightly.

He simply put the ball inside the house and moved a chair to sit on the balcony on the second floor to watch the rain. Liu Feng read a book rarely.

While being a football player, he also has his own hobbies. Games are a common feature of men, and reading is a habit he has developed since childhood.

Due to the limitation of his career, he could not go to university like other children of the same age after graduating from high school. This has always been a regret in his heart.

Therefore, he has always insisted on maintaining the habit of reading without relaxing the cultivation of his overall literacy.

Rarely, on this day, Liu Feng enjoyed a day that belonged to Wen Qing.

In the evening, after replying to several brands interested in cooperation sent by Joao by email, and communicating with Li Peng and Chen Xu about the current development of Fengwei Pavilion, Liu Feng lay on the bed with Yuan Xiao in his arms.

The first game in December will be the Carabao Cup. The Gunners' opponents should not be underestimated. It is Manchester City who are eager to make a difference this season.

This is the quarter-finals of the English League Cup. Arsenal will challenge Blue Moon away to determine the winner of the next round of the competition.

When the training resumed the next day, the professor put a lot of pressure on the players, but because the difficult game with Fulham was not far away, everyone's condition was quite average.

Even Liu Feng was ordered by the team doctor to only keep half of the training volume in the first two days because of the bruises all over his body.

In addition to the English League Cup, in early December, Arsenal will also usher in the final round of the Champions League group stage and the new Club World Cup.

In this context, when the last day of preparations came, the professor finally stopped torturing his team members.

After confirming that everyone's state will not improve much, Wenger chose the defensive 442 in the announced formation.

Liu Feng and Aguero once again became striker partners, and the four midfielders were Wilshere, Ramsey, Ganso and Walcott, and the team's main players were still ranked as a whole.

In defense, Gibbs and Alves one left and one right, the two defenders are a new combination, Squillage and Garfiel Jones have become the team's central defender combination.

As for the choice of goalkeeper, Fabianski still firmly occupies the main position.

"Our opponents are not easy to mess with. Their strength can be said to be comparable to yours. At least judging from your current state, this is indeed the case."

The professor has a serious face after announcing the lineup. He is not satisfied with the state of the team and is quite worried about tomorrow's game.

In the quarter-finals, a team of Manchester City's level was encountered. The League Cup can be said to be the most unfriendly competition for the Gunners.

Although this season has only passed one-third of the season, the Gunners have not yet made it clear which event they want to give up.

The professor didn't mean that at all. It is indeed a fantasy to defend all the five major competitions, but at the moment when it has not reached the end of the mountain, never giving up is what a team should look like.

"Eight o'clock tomorrow morning, don't be late!"

"understand!"

……

As the Carabao Cup match day is not a weekend, the Arsenal bus leaving the Emirates Stadium in gloomy weather this morning was not greeted by many fans.

The team members sitting in the car wrapped their coats tightly and looked a little dull.

"This terrible weather, I hope it won't rain during the game."

Gan Suo, who was sitting in the front row, complained helplessly about the weather in London. He came here from Italy and hadn't adapted to the weird climate change in the UK.

It has to be said that today's Gansuozui is indeed the rhythm of consecration, or the gloomy weather has long been doomed to heavy rain today.

"WTF!!!"

This is a rare moment for Liu Feng to scold his mother during the warm-up. When he just completed a shot and was about to shoot the next nine balls, but was soaked by the sudden rain, it was really an uncomfortable thing.

The same goes for the other teammates. Everyone frowned and looked at the sky, and the fine rainwater visible to the naked eye kept falling.

Under such circumstances, even the huge boos of the Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium stagnated with the rain. Fans with umbrellas fought one after another, and those who had nothing could only cover their heads with their hands.

Therefore, the pre-match warm-up for this game ended much earlier than other previous games. The players of both sides were taken back to the locker room by their respective coaches to change clothes and take a shower.

Early on, the waiting fans had to face a long period of empty stadium.

The only good thing is that when the referee appeared on the court with the players of the two teams who had already changed their clothes, the heavy rain had turned into moderate rain that could barely keep the game going.

"CCTV, CCTV, hello viewers and friends, welcome to the 2011-2012 English League Cup quarter-final match between Manchester City and Arsenal at home. I am the commentator Liu Jianhong."

"Hi everyone, I'm the commentator Zhan Jun."

The familiar duo played together, and the players of the two teams on the court have become drowned.

"It can be seen that it has started to rain at the game site. This is a rare rain game. The players of the two teams are not allowed to play in special circumstances."

Simply pointing out the weather, on the court, Liu Feng had already finished guessing and took the ball back to his own half.

"A Feng chose the kick-off for the team, and he has already put the ball in place."

As long as the referee does not indicate that the game cannot continue, it is considered that the game can continue. Therefore, the players have the obligation to prepare for the start of the game.

Mancini and Wenger shook hands on the sidelines, and on the field, the eyes of both players were also intertwined.

"Shh!!!"

The whistle blew without giving either team time to ponder their opponent's mood.

"The good game has officially started. Arsenal kicked out the ball. At this moment, the field is completely soaked, and the rolling of the ball on the field has obviously slowed down."

At the beginning, although Liu Feng pushed the ball with considerable strength, it was obvious that the time it took to reach Gansuo's feet was not as he expected.

The two teams had to try to adapt to the new environment after the opening.
