Chapter 1874 Countdown to the New Season

Although some fans still believe that it is an irrational replacement for the team to sell a Champions League champion player and buy a bunch of young players, everyone's scolding battle against Kroenke and the club's top management has subsided.

Seeing that the new season is about to start, there is no point in continuing to entangle with those things. The most important thing is to take a serious look at the team's performance this season.

The news and news of major clubs have begun to revolve around the new season, and the professor is also constantly trying out the team's combination and collocation for the new season. Generally speaking, in addition to spending time on training new players, Wenger still has a set of starters that can be used directly.

In the new season, the team's second and third captains have also changed.

Since Rosicky has been completely reduced to a substitute rotation player, continuing to serve as the vice captain may not be able to play a commanding role for the players on the field. Therefore, after communicating with him, the professor decided to appoint the team's defense iron gate Vermaelen as the new vice captain, and Rosicky became the third captain.

As for the first captain, needless to say, Liu Feng is still unshakeable. As the banner of the club, as long as he stands on the field, the sublimation he brings to the entire team cannot be explained in one or two sentences.

Anyone can move, except Super Maple, who cannot.

Time is getting closer and closer. When other leagues have not yet started, the Premier League, which is very good at capturing business opportunities, is still the first league to restart the league.

On August 2013, 8, Arsenal will usher in their first round of the league, when they will play against Aston Villa at home.

Although the opponent they faced was Aston Villa, which had a thrilling relegation last season, it seemed that the heavens were going to fight against Arsenal. When they entered the final preparation week, injuries suddenly struck.

Vermaelen, who was like an iron man throughout the training period, directly injured his ligament and was out for two months. The midfielder Ramsey also pulled his thigh during training and was expected to be out for half a month.

This made the professor very uncomfortable. Before the first game of the new season, the two absolute main players of the team's back line and midfield were directly injured. It was not a good sign no matter what.

Compared with them, the Aston Villa team, which has introduced a lot of strong support this season and is ready to raise the team's league performance, is quite well prepared.

In Villa's pre-match warm-up match, their forwards Benteke and Abanglaho both scored goals and were in good condition. In this pre-match interview, the two also directly stated that they are very hopeful to score goals at the Emirates Stadium.

Time passed quickly, and soon came the match day.

North London has been filled with excited Arsenal fans since seven o'clock in the morning. Countless fans in red and white jerseys waved their flags in the streets to celebrate the arrival of the new season.

Last season was really a perfect season for Gunners fans. It's so refreshing to watch their favorite team ascend to the undisputed throne.

When the Arsenal team bus drove into the street in front of the Emirates Stadium, the players were also greeted by roaring waves.

The old players in the car were all excited about being mobilized, not to mention the new players who joined the team and were full of freshness in everything about the team.

It was the first time for James Rodriguez to see such a big scene. After all, although playing for Porto is considered a giant in the Portuguese Super League, it is still not as good as a giant at the level of Arsenal.

"Well, choosing to come here is definitely the most correct choice you made."

Gan Suo, who was sitting next to Ronaldo, smiled and looked at the young man in front of him with bright eyes. He remembered how he joined Arsenal two seasons ago.

Back then Arsenal had just finished a season of seven titles and everything was very much like it is now.

"As long as you can show your talent on the court, the fans will cheer for you, it's very simple~"

"Uh-huh!"

The Gunners bus drove into the Emirates Stadium, and the players quickly got off the bus and went to the locker room. As some people left and others came, the ownership of the lockers in the team's locker room also changed.

The owner of Aguero's cabinet who had been sitting next to Liu Feng before became William, who joined the new team. De Jong's cabinet was owned by Ronaldo. Players came and went, but these cabinets have been standing here, witnessing the birth and ending of legends one after another.

When the captain Liu Feng led the team members into the stadium to warm up, the Emirates Stadium, whose attendance rate was close to being full, heard monstrous shouts.

"Arsenal! Arsenal! Arsenal!"

"Maple! Maple! Maple!"

……

There was the team's name, the man's name, and the names of many other popular stars of the team. The players waved and greeted the fans, and then went into warm-up.

In this game, the professor did not support the big team but put on a 442 formation.

Liu Feng and Giroud partnered as the team's starting striker, Neymar and Walcott left and right avant-garde, Wilshere and Ganso formed the team's starting midfield combination.

That's right, because the new players have not yet fully integrated into the team, the professor mainly chose the team's main players from last season to form the starting lineup.

At the back line, Alba and Alves are still one left and one right, but Koscielny is partnered with Mertesacker. After all, Vermaelen will be injured for two months.

Thinking about it carefully, the captain position of the Gunners seems to be cursed. Except for Liu Feng who suppressed it with his strong strength, other players will always encounter various problems when they are appointed as the captain of the team. Maybe Vermaelen's injury has something to do with his appointment as the vice-captain?

The last is the goalkeeper position. Szczesny still firmly grasps the position of the starting goalkeeper. Although Fabianski's state is almost the same as him, the professor still chooses to believe in the champion goalkeeper of last season.

When Arsenal's warm-up was halfway through, Aston Villa also officially entered the field. Compared with the huge shouts ushered in by the Gunners, they naturally received huge boos.

Ronaldo, who was training with a group of big shots, felt a chug in his heart when he heard the boos echoing throughout the stadium, which was not at all different from the atmosphere he had in the warm-up match against Arsenal.

Obviously, only when there is a real fight with real swords and guns, Arsenal fans will put in a lot of effort to create a home court advantage for the team.

When the warm-ups of the two teams ended one after another and both sides returned to the locker room, the on-site staff began the last field maintenance.

The 2013-2014 Premier League season has officially entered the countdown.
