When Notts County came to Italy, Moratti also invited David to dinner, or he preferred to talk more with David. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the dinner was not pleasant, David really had little desire to communicate with an old man who was always stubborn, and perhaps when Moratti knew what it took to make a club work well when he was shooting, they would have more of a common language.

In the second leg of the away meeting with Inter Milan, Loew did not send a full main lineup, after all, the result of the first leg was very favorable to Notts County, in any case, the advantage of three goal difference was like a mountain, which made Inter Milan breathless at all, I believe that Inter Milan at this time does not have the spirit of Mourinho's time.

A defensive counterattack tactics and formation, let Inter Milan in its original form, there is no effective organization of the midfield, several strikers fight separately, empty strength but fall into the quagmire of Notts County's defense, there is no room to play, this dilemma, really make a world-class striker embarrassed and helpless.

In the end, Notts County held on to a draw at minimal cost and advanced to the last four of this season's UEFA Cup, leaving Inter Milan to taste the bitter fruits of the season once again.

On the second day after the Notts County team returned to England, Loew gave the players a day off to rest, and in the stage of the double sprint, being able to enjoy a day off was even happier for the players than paying an extra week's salary.

However, the coaching staff was not so relaxed at this time, because at this time, Notts County's opponents in the League Cup semi-finals were also freshly released, and this time Notts County's semi-final opponent was the Catalan giants Barcelona.

Before the start of this season's UEFA Cup, Barcelona, who had a poor league performance last season, announced that they would win the UEFA Cup this season.

This is not over, Notts County, the defending champion of the League Cup, has become worthless in Barcelona's mouth, degrading all aspects of the lineup, as if contempt for Notts County can make them win the championship.

At that time, David also had a verbal confrontation with Barcelona, that is, after a verbal battle for a while, and finally the two sides spoke and used their strength to speak when the two sides met together.

Unexpectedly, this scene became a reality, and the two teams actually met in the semi-finals, which means stubble!

It seems that his crossing has really brought a lot of changes to the direction of football, at least in his previous life, David didn't remember that Barcelona entered the semi-finals of the League Cup this season, and it seems that before the Dream II team matured, the Catalan giants had not been able to get results for many years.

However, since it is not a good thing to be able to compete with the immature Barcelona, if this group of people collapses, will it be psychologically sad to meet Notts County when the dream second team matures?

Before the first leg with Barcelona, Notts County still has three league games to play, after playing these three league games, the Premier League has only the last two rounds of the league season, if Notts County can not be chased by Arsenal in these three league games, then when there are still two rounds of the league left, Arsenal, which is still 6 points apart from Nots, may only have the theoretical hope of winning the championship.

So Notts County have moved back into the Premier League, and each of these three games has been a crucial battle for the title, and there is no room for error.

With Arsenal's game on Saturday and Notts County on Sunday, there is always a certain psychological advantage in the late game, and after Notts County finished training on Saturday, all the players returned home and crouched in front of the TV to watch the Arsenal game.

The schedule is very favorable for Notts County, the opponents of these three games are Middlesbrough, Birmingham City and Everton, all of which are basically the middle and lower reaches of the team, there is no relegation distress, and there is no motivation, it can be said that the fighting spirit is not strong, and it is not difficult for Notts County to achieve a good result.

But Arsenal's schedule is a bit sad, these three league games are also crucial for them, today's game against Chelsea is a battle between the eyes of the table and the flowers, if Arsenal lose, they will slip to the third place in the table because of goal difference, which is definitely not the result they want to see.

But Chelsea is a very strong team now, no less than Arsenal, and they are not without a chance to break Arsenal's unbeaten golden body at home.

Therefore, this game is the best time for Notts County to make a profit, and Arsenal only have one way to win, otherwise the hope of winning the championship is really slim.

For Arsenal, this is not the end, after the focus of this game with Chelsea, but the next league game will not be played immediately, in this interval, there is also a Champions League knockout match with Chelsea, that is, in four days, Arsenal will play two summit matchups with Chelsea, the final stage is the Premier League and the Champions League.

The result of the first leg between the two sides was not ideal for Arsenal, and their squad depth is nowhere near that of a local Chelsea, so these two back-to-back games could be a watershed moment for them, either to chase Notts County in the league or to fight Chelsea in the Champions League, and to make a difference in both games, it will be a little too difficult for them.

David doesn't know what choice Wenger will make, compared to this time, no one will give up any front, work hard for a season, is it because of two games to hate?

Sure enough, in this contest between the second and third places in the standings, Arsenal, who were fighting away, was completely in a desperate state, and actually wanted to fight against the away team and attacked extremely fiercely.

Of course, Chelsea are not vegetarians, and the cunning Ranieri ordered the whole team to retreat, withstood Arsenal's strong attack at the beginning, began to arrange gradually, and was able to attack and defend with Arsenal in the first half.

Arsenal's failure to strike a strong shot undermined morale, while Chelsea were also hampered by the Champions League fixture, with neither side able to score, and the two teams ended up drawing with a point each.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Notts County players who were crouching in front of the TV jumped up in unison, and this result was undoubtedly the most beneficial for Notts County, who were the fishermen waiting for the snipe to compete. (To be continued.) )
