Chapter 354: It's all waiting for Notts County to make a mistake

After Notts County's winning streak came to an end, all the Premier League teams breathed a sigh of relief that the magical promotion team had finally stopped his damn footsteps.

No way, when everyone is struggling near the poverty line, Notts County has actually run to a well-off, who can not be red-eyed!

Of course, the miracle created by Notts County is still amazing, and they dominate the top spot in the Premier League table, which is the miracle of Notts County.

Prior to this round, Notts County had won all eight games, while Arsenal, who remained unbeaten, had drawn two of their eight games and moved four points clear of Notts County.

However, as the biggest favorite to win the championship, Arsenal has encountered the devil's schedule in recent rounds of the league.

In the sixth round away to Manchester United, the Gunners and the Red Devils drew a goalless sheet.

In the seventh round at home to the Magpies Newcastle, Arsenal won hard.

In the eighth round, Anfield took on Liverpool of the Reds, and the Gunners were stubborn to walk away from home with a victory.

In the ninth round, Arsenal hosted upstart Chelsea, and although Arsenal gave Chelsea a lot of opportunities, they still relied on their old tricks to win all three points.

In four tough games, Arsenal has a strong record of three wins and one draw, seven wins and two draws in the first nine league games, and the point gap with Notts County remains at two points.

In this way, the gold content of Arsenal's points is much higher than that of Notts County, after all, Notts County has not encountered so many tough battles, playing weak teams, and winning is not martial!

Behind Arsenal, Chelsea have six wins, two draws and one defeat, with the Blues sitting third in the table with 20 points, four points clear of Notts County.

As for Manchester United, who were the favourites before the season, with six wins, one draw and two defeats in nine games, they are in fourth place, and Ferguson's side have gradually lost their title contention.

Of course, no one will underestimate Manchester United, and there are examples of Newcastle being more than a dozen points behind but eventually succeeding in a comeback.

However, after this round of league games, with Notts County stepping down from the altar, the competition for the Premier League title has become simple and vague.

The media, who originally thought that Notts County would continue to win, also changed their tune and began to fall into the trap, believing that as long as a draw was achieved, Notts County's morale would be discouraged, and their tactical play would gradually be understood by other Premier League teams, and they would slowly lose their absolute strength.

As a result, it will not be long before Notts County slip from the top of the table and give up the top spot, perhaps in the next round, Arsenal will complete the comeback against Notts County.

Notts County can't even beat Fulham, let alone have a strong performance against other teams, you know, Fulham are currently relegated teams.

And Fulham's style of play has also inspired many other teams, since they think Notts County is strong, then simply play some extremes, anyway, I don't want three points, a point can be accepted, why bother to play against Notts County, the opponents who won the big score in front of Notts County are not able to recognize the situation and play against Notts County, how good it is to honestly run for a point!

In the tenth round, Notts County hosted Leicester City, which became the most important battle.

Everyone wants to know whether Notts County will fall from the altar or rise again, and Leicester City, which has a natural conflict with Notts County, is the best litmus test.

As a promoted horse, there are still countless people who remember the farcical game between the two teams in the league last season, that game was over before it even lasted until the end, and Leicester City didn't even have enough seven people on the field, so the game was naturally over.

And Alonso and Iniesta, the two players who were injured and retired by Leicester City, are also looking for a chance to take revenge.

According to common sense, more people are still optimistic about Notts County winning at home, after all, they have the advantage of being at home, and the opponent is a promoted horse, and their strength is limited.

The key is that Notts County has a full team of personnel in this game, and there are effective means to score in the face of bus tactics, so there is no need to worry about the lack of scoring ability.

Before the game, the two teams that did not have a good relationship with each other did not say anything, and the other guys who had nothing to do with themselves stood up and cheered for Leicester City, no way, who called Notts County still occupy the top spot in the standings, if Notts County themselves do not make mistakes, then don't want to press on the head of Notts County.

Arsene Wenger said Leicester have the quality to snipe at Notts County and that as long as they follow the same tactical setup as Fulham, it would not be a surprise to draw against Notts County.

Alex Ferguson said that Notts County no longer have the fighting spirit to continue, and as long as Leicester City play their own characteristics, they can beat Notts County.

Although Ranieri did not have a clear language to say, the players under his command jumped out one by one, some said that the depth of the Notts County squad is not good, and some said that the main players of Notts County are not physically fit, anyway, the overall meaning is that Notts County does not have the strength to win the Premier League, not as strong as everyone thinks.

Their careful thinking everyone understands that if Leicester City can really snipe at Notts County, then there is no doubt that they are the winners, Arsenal can directly surpass Notts County, and Chelsea and Manchester United can also close the gap, why not.

But the problem is, Leicester doesn't think so.

Leicester City is a very realistic team, why they did everything possible to withdraw from Notts County last season, it is precisely because they thought that Notts County was their biggest opponent in the Premier League, and it turned out that the result was the same, but Leicester City overestimated themselves a little, because Notts County did not really treat them as opponents.

And now, although it is also a promotion horse in the Premier League, after nine rounds of league games, Notts County is at the top of the Premier League standings, while Leicester City can only struggle for relegation, and the gap is bigger than last season.

By comparing the strength of Notts County and measuring their own strength, the Fox City sadly found that even if they exhausted their means in this game, they may not be able to cause too much trouble to Notts County, even if they put the bus, after Klose and other players with strong defensive ability to break through dense defense returned to the field, their means of strangling Notts County have been completely ineffective.

Then, they have to think carefully about whether it is worth investing a lot of energy in this league.

Although everyone understands the truth, knowing that the game cannot be won, they must fight tenaciously.

But in practice, not everyone sees it that way. (To be continued.) )
