Chapter 1403

On the morning of March in London City, the weather was still a little wet and cold, and a group of Gunners players wearing jackets had already assembled at the team's training base.

Everyone was refreshed, obviously having a good rest last night.

Staring at the professor in front of them, all the players are gearing up to try their best for the starting position on this last day.

"Start training!"

Without further ado, the training started directly. The Arsenal team used an hour and a half warm-up time to activate the physical functions of the players.

Subsequently, the striker group, the midfielder group, the defender group and the goalkeeper group were separated to start targeted training for each position.

Wenger continued to walk directly in each group, communicate with the assistant coach in charge of each group, and then watched the players train for a period of time.

Seeing the professor kept nodding or nodding, everyone was confused, and everyone tried their best.

When the training in the morning was over, everyone in the team felt transparent.

In the afternoon, after the simple warm-up, an intra-team match that lasted for half an hour began.

A group of players were split into two teams, Liu Feng and Aguero were in one team each, Ganso and Rosicky, Vermaelen + Koscielny vs Mertesacker + Phil Jones, the purpose of this arrangement was very obvious.

All the players were immersed in the game, and half an hour was only enough for a few rounds of offense and defense when everyone was very involved. Soon after the professor blew his whistle, he didn't consume the enthusiasm of the players anymore.

The scoreboard on the sidelines showed 2-1. Liu Feng and Gan Suo scored two goals for the red team one after another, while Aguero scored for the blue team after receiving a wonderful pass from Rosicky.

"Alright, let's assemble in the conference room."

They clapped their hands. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wenger was not going to let his players consume any energy.

The game will be held in the evening local time, and this time will be used to allow everyone to recover.

When it came time to finally decide to start, the players were all very excited. They got together with their close teammates and chatted in twos and threes while entering the conference room.

"Our opponents are definitely not to be underestimated."

The first sentence of the mouth will be qualitative. Wenger does not want the players to be proud of the team's record against Barcelona last season.

Moreover, it was not easy for the Gunners to eliminate Barcelona and advance last season.

"understand!"

In the Gunners, the old players who have experienced last season naturally have vivid memories of the past.

As for the new players who have not experienced it, they have very little experience in the Champions League. It is naturally impossible to relax too much in the face of a cosmic team like Barcelona.

Therefore, when Wenger looked at the serious eyes in front of him, he also felt relieved.

"So, for today's game, our formation is 442."

No one dares to weaken the midfield against Barcelona, ​​especially when Xavi and Iniesta are two world-class midfielders who are at their peak.

Even Wenger, who is confident in the team's counterattack and midfield hardness, finally chose the arrangement of four midfielders.

"Two strikers, Feng and Aguero."

A stable and undisputed super combination, the performance of Liu Feng and Aguero in the game is obvious to all, and the players naturally have no objections to this.

"Left-midfield, Wilshere, right-midfielder Walcott."

Chamberlain, who is too young and inexperienced in major competitions, was not allowed to start. Any weak link in the face of an opponent like Barcelona may become the team's winning point.

"Two midfielders."

When the midfielders of the two central organizations are about to be announced, people's eyes are constantly lingering on the faces of Rosicky and Ganso.

The team's central duo is always accustomed to one main attack and one main defense, so only one can be placed for core players like Rosicky and Ganso.

When Xiaofa was there, Rosicky could only sit on the bench, and he would not return to the main position until he transferred and left.

Unfortunately, the joining of Ganso once again challenged his main position. After nearly a season of competition, the status of Ganso and Rosicky is almost equal in Wenger's heart.

Compared with who he prefers, the professor prefers to read the posts and order food.

So, what will be his choice in the face of the Barcelona team that implements the ball possession tactics to the extreme and maximizes the passing control ability?

"Ganso, Ramsay."

After a pause, the professor finally made a choice.

Ganso, who played more aggressively and more simply, appeared in the starting position.

What kind of core determines what kind of style of play, and the appearance of Gansuo also means that the Gunners will inevitably play fast in this game.

"Don't be immersed in the opponent's rhythm, use short, fast and flat passes to speed up the attack, we have our own rhythm."

It is definitely the right decision not to play against a midfield combination like Harvey and Xiaobai based on pass control. Even Wenger, who is extremely proud of his players, has to admit that these two players are now the two most dazzling midfielders in the world.

Of course, Cesc Fabregas of the Gunners may be able to compete with the two last season.

As for this season, after moving back to Barcelona, ​​Cesc Fabregas once again proved that La Masia's abandonment of him was not a aimless move with his acclimatization.

His style of play may be very suitable in the Premier League, but in La Liga, he just can't enjoy it.

Except for the early days when he announced his return to Barcelona fans in a high-profile manner, Xiaofa has been completely reduced to the substitute of Habai and Bai, sitting on the bench in every game and appearing in garbage time.

In addition, Guardiola will also send him to start in some unimportant cup games.

In terms of statistics, Xiaofa is still very good-looking and has not been reduced to a marginal role, but it is obviously more than one point worse than leading the team to lift the championship trophy time and time again at Arsenal with the captain's armband.

"understand!"

Wenger has long emphasized in the team training countless times not to fall into the rhythm of Barcelona, ​​so the answers of several midfielders are also quite straightforward.

"Four backs, Alves, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Maicon."

The old and Mijianjia's absolutely stable arrangement, the names of the defenders reported by Wenger are all players who are undoubtedly in the best condition during training.

"Goalkeeper, Fabianski."

"Roger that!"

The back line and the goalkeeper responded loudly to the professor's choice at the same time, and the eyes of all the players who entered the starting list were shining at the moment.

Afterwards, the professor quickly announced the players who entered the big list. The players who did not enter the starting lineup but entered the substitute list could only use this as a way of comforting themselves.

"Okay guys, don't forget that this is our door, and I look forward to your performance tonight."

"learn!"
