Football: When you are at Manchester United, you must score goals

Arsenal.

It has not won the Champions League, but it is recognized as a football giants team.

Once conquered the world with gorgeous technical football.

This is the credit of the former former head coach Wenger, but his era is long gone.

After several changes of head coaches and players, the current Arsenal's style of play has tended to be more advanced and mainstream today.

Wenger has been at Arsenal for more than 21 years, and the spirit of the Gunners left behind, as well as the steady and gorgeous technical football, have almost disappeared in just four years.

There is only the Emirates Stadium where he sold the team captain and key players to pay off his debts, and the figure that the world knows.

Arsenal, who were in the state of fighting for the top four back then, had to be slapped twice first.

Of course, Arsenal, which has not entered the Champions League for six consecutive years, is very hopeful to set foot on the stage of the Champions League again this year, and has a chance to win the Premier League this season.

If this game can be won smoothly, they will only be one point behind Manchester United.

Pre-match press conference.

"You lost 2-4 to Manchester United in the last match, will this affect you?"

"Winning and losing is a normal thing in football. We are very different now from before. The team has already made mental construction and preparation."

"Lin Lingqi has performed well this season, will the team make any changes for him?"

"For Lin Lingqi's current performance, I am more emotionally admirable... What a crazy goal record, he is a very good player, but football is not a one-man sport, I believe today we can limit Hold him."

"Mr Arteta, are Arsenal in contention? Manchester United look unstoppable."

"I think we can do it... If you can be with the players every day like I am, and see how they understand each other, how they connect with each other, and their chemistry, you will understand as much as I do. For one thing, we can win against any team."

"Our Arsenal is invincible!"

In the Manchester United locker room, Lin Lingqi lowered his head and tied his shoelaces tightly, listening to Ten Hag's pre-match mobilization, "Crackling, blah, blah... It's time to break the record! Go up and silence this stadium!"

"3, 2, 1, we must win!"

……

"Friends from the audience, Happy New Year everyone! You are watching the 21st round of the Premier League, Arsenal's match against Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium!"

"Arsenal's formation today is 433, the starting lineup is goalkeeper Ramsdale."

"Zinchenko at left back, Ben White at right back, Saliba and Gabriel at center back."

"The three midfielders are Xhaka, Thomas and Odegaard who have performed well this season."

"The front three is Martinelli, Saka and Nketiah, Nketiah replaces the injured Jesus.

These are three teenagers with an average age of only 21.6 years old. Their offensive firepower this season is very fierce. Manchester United's defense, which has been in poor form recently, will be tested by them in this game. "

"The average age of Arsenal's starters is 24.5 years old, very young, but worth up to 5 million euros, judging from the current Premier League rankings, we know that they are very strong!"

"United's squad is...

The starting lineup of this game has only one change from the previous game. Casemiro has been suspended for accumulative yellow cards, and McTominay serves as the team's starting midfielder. "

"The scene was shown to Lin Lingqi. Have you all watched the movie starring Lin Lingqi that was released today? I went to the cinema to watch it with director Zhang sitting next to me at noon today. It is very good. I believe I like it." Everyone in football will love it too."

"The game will start soon, let us look forward to Lin Lingqi's wonderful performance!"

Arsenal's head coach Arteta used to be Guardiola's assistant in Manchester City, and his tactical style is somewhat similar to Guardiola's.

However, Arteta's football philosophy is still somewhat different from that of Guardiola. On offense, he prefers to make players more concise and pass forward frequently, rather than looking for opportunities in midfield.

This is a game that both teams are eager to win. The opening kick was relatively cautious, and only a few tentative attacks were attempted.

But everyone knows that this kind of game atmosphere will not last long, it is just the calm before the storm.

Arsenal's current midfield core was bought by Real Madrid for 16 million euros when he was 280 years old. The annual salary is also unprecedented at 150 million euros. In the final game of La Liga this season, he replaced Ronaldo to complete the first team of Real Madrid. debut.

At that time, that scene was regarded by many people as the change of Real Madrid's superstars, and many Huaguo fans also remembered the talented boy named Odegard at that time.

It's just that Erdegaard's development has not met the expectations of the outside world. Whether he is in the second team of Real Madrid or on loan to Heerenveen, his performance is very average. Many people say that he hurt Zhongyong.

It wasn't until the 19-year-old Erdegaard, who was on loan to Vitesse in the Eredivisie, handed over 39 goals and 11 assists in 13 games this season, that he returned to everyone's attention.

After that, Erdegaard went on loan to Real Sociedad in La Liga. In this team with him as the core, he played brilliantly, scoring 36 goals and 7 assists in 9 games.

At the end of the loan period of Real Sociedad, Odegaard returned to Real Madrid. It may be that he was not used to the playing style of the giants, or it may be that the coach of Real Madrid was Zidane, who entered the palace for the second time. Zidane, who willfully refused to play in the snow, only gave him 9 appearances throughout the season, averaging only 46 minutes per game, and scored zero assists.

Odegaard, who knew that he could not play in Real Madrid, submitted a transfer application, but Real Madrid was unwilling to let him go. He was loaned to Arsenal for half a year. The physical confrontation in the Premier League made him very uncomfortable and his performance was average.

After returning to Real Madrid, Odegaard, who was very happy at Arsenal, wanted to transfer there. The team of Real Madrid coach Ancelotti at the time did not have his position. In order to avoid the expiration of Odegaard’s contract, he left for free , Sold to Arsenal for 3500 million euros.

After his mixed performance last season, Erdegaard ushered in an explosion this season and truly stepped into the level of a world-class midfielder.

In the past, he was a waste of Real Madrid who fell at the touch of a touch and could only pass the ball.

Now everything is inferior, only Odegaard.

In the 13th minute of the game, Erdegaard took the ball in the midfield, easily passed the b fee of the grab with extremely beautiful steps, and went straight to the penalty area with a kick!

Enketia, who succeeded in anti-offside, carried Lima and forcibly hit the goal!

De Gea quickly jumped sideways and missed the ball!

The ball passed through De Gea's fingertips and slid into the goal!

Arsenal 1 to 0 Manchester United!
