Chapter 2040 Desire to Win

A league draw, even against Arsenal and a relegation team, is destined not to be a topic of conversation for long.

Soon, as the media began to report that the Gunners were about to face Liverpool at home in the FA Cup, people slowly left the last game behind.

In fact, not long ago, Arsenal and Liverpool had a confrontation in the league. That game naturally ended in the Gunners' victory, but it was also that game that made people realize that Liverpool's strength must not be underestimated.

This time, in the fifth round of the FA Cup, where the first battle was decided, the two teams were actually on the same starting line. Who can advance to the next round of the cup has become a hot topic among fans.

The coaches of the two teams, Rodgers and Wenger, were interviewed separately. They were very calm and calm in front of the camera, fully demonstrating what a rich coach is.

"We're going to play at home, which is great news, and while they'll have half the tickets, me and my team aren't prepared to be eliminated when the Chiefs go to the stadium."

"We failed to win the opponent at Anfield, but this does not mean that we will admit defeat when we come to their home court. Liverpool has excellent blood, and our players are also the top in the world."

The remote dialogue between the two coaches did not give in at all, which actually represented the attitude of the two teams and the fans. In the next few days, the answers of the interviews of the players of both sides were also quite consistent.

In this context, the fans of the Red Army and the fans of the Arsenal team quickly launched a heated battle. On the Internet and in various forums, fans of both sides can be seen everywhere arguing.

Those who are reasonable will discuss the advantages and abilities of their own team, so as to draw the conclusion that their team will win. If they are unreasonable, they will start to dissect each other, and the anger will naturally rise when they come and go.

Compared with the fans, the players of the two teams have been training in a dull manner. They have been conducting surprise training based on the opponent's tactical characteristics in various training bases. In the case that the two sides have played against each other more than once this season, they all know what to target without the coach saying much.

At the Gunners training base, on the afternoon before the start of the game, the professor once again called the players into the conference room. In the past few days of training, the Arsenal players have performed very well, which gave him more choices in the formation of troops.

"Tomorrow's game, we will play 442."

Facing the menacing Liverpool team, the professor did not hold back. With the touch of the electronic pen in his hand, a 442 tactical map was revealed.

"Giroud, Feng, two forwards."

With the combination of a center forward and a shadow forward, Giruga and Liu Feng once again started together in the game.

"Left and right midfielders, Neymar, Walcott."

Due to his outstanding performance after coming off the bench in the last game, the little tiger defeated a lot of competitors and appeared in the starting position. He will form a side attack line with Neymar on the left and right.

"Two midfielders, Wilshere and Ganso."

The team's two most commonly used midfield combinations have become the team's starting lineup. It can only be said that the tacit understanding and threat of Wilshere and Ganso are really very satisfactory to the professor.

In terms of the back four and the goalkeeper, the professor finally brought out the team's strongest defense again, Alba, Mertesacker, Vermaelen and Alves, and goalkeeper Szczesny. Such a stable defense is enough to make many people feel at ease.

Subsequently, other players whose names were not pronounced also entered the team's substitute list one after another, and Wenger will make substitutions in the middle of the game depending on the situation.

"Tomorrow we will play at home, so you all know what to do."

"Very clear! Victory! Victory! Victory!"

"Very good, very energetic, now disbanded."

With a wave of his hand, the players went back to their respective homes to rest. Everyone enjoyed the comfort of sitting at home. This night, the entire Arsenal team had a good night's sleep.

When the sunshine in London came down from behind the clouds, it was already the next morning, and the Arsenal players who assembled at the training base early began their last tactical drill.

The players from the second team and the reserve team of the team played a 45-minute training match as the simulated opponents of the home team. After seeing that several of the team's established tactics passed the test, Wenger signaled that he could rest.

In fact, after two big battles, the professor also realized that what the team needs to do most to beat Liverpool is to work hard on defense. In the past two days, he has not less raised his requirements on his defenders.

What they can become in the next game depends on their own performance.

In the afternoon, the Arsenal players took the lead to leave the training base and take the bus to the Emirates Stadium.

Because it is a cup game that determines the outcome, the tickets for this game were actually sold in the form of 221, but due to Arsenal's home court advantage, one fifth of the neutral fans' tickets were bought by Gunners fans.

Therefore, Arsenal is still far ahead of Liverpool in the number of fans.

This can be seen in the huge cheers when the team's bus drove into the Emirates Stadium. You must know that when the Liverpool team's bus arrived shortly thereafter, they were greeted with noise mixed with huge boos.

After the two teams arrived at the stadium one after another, the broadcast cameras on the major platforms also quickly lit up, and the commentators in the commentary room also quickly appeared in front of the fans.

"Good audience friends, what you are seeing now is the picture of the two teams warming up on the court. The shots show the leading strikers Liu Feng and Suarez of the two teams respectively."

The warm-up time is also a hot moment for the commentators. Liu Jianhong quickly started to comment. Since this game is a cup match, he is the only one to comment.

"Both sides warmed up very seriously. It seems that they are quite afraid of each other."

Under the shouts of the fans on both sides, the Red Army members and the Gunners players looked up from time to time to the direction of the opponent's home field, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit that could not be concealed.

Although it is only a cup match, it may be the last match of the season for them. Liverpool, who have been defeated by Arsenal countless times, can no longer conceal their desire to defeat their opponents.

As for the Arsenal team, facing any strong opponent will make them excited, and turning all strong opponents into defeats is even more exciting for the players to think about.

The camera flashed, the warm-up of the two sides ended quickly, and the players of the two teams returned to the locker room.
