The next day, Manchester United drew 2-2 at Bolton Wanderers and the distance between them and Arsenal at the top of the table is growing. Ranwen? ??．? ｒ?ａ?ｎ?? ｅ?ｎａ `ｃｏｍ

In response to a question from reporters at the post-match press conference, Ferguson said: "Manchester United are not on track yet, but we will get better and experience has taught us that the most important thing is in the middle and late stages of the season.

There's no team that can be in top shape in a season! ”

As soon as these words fell, a London reporter in the audience said loudly: "Arsenal also remained strong in the middle and back stages last season!" ”

"They won the championship with an undefeated record!"

This is a slap in the face, the venue is quiet all of a sudden, will Ferguson be mad?

The Manchester United manager's face changed several times, and finally said calmly: "If Arsenal can remain strong in the middle and late stages this season, then the Premier League title this season should belong to them, and I will congratulate them when the time comes!" ”

What does this mean?

Ferguson conceded defeat in the face of the facts of last season?

Or does he simply not think Arsenal can continue to be as strong in the middle of the season as they did last season?

In the eyes of Manchester City reporters, Ferguson's words should mean the latter, when did the lord admit defeat?

Chelsea halted their winning streak and the pro-Chelsea media did not believe the Blues would be left behind by Arsenal, believing that this was where Carlo Ancelotti excelled.

In the next seven days, the Blues have a Champions League group stage game to play, and more importantly, they will face Arsenal in the next round!

He is now suppressing his team's form and is preparing for the next round of the Premier League, which will lead to a win over his local rivals at Stamford Bridge and regain points.

'Now make the Gunners happy, and when they get to Stamford Bridge, they will find out that the Blues have been preparing for this game for a long time!'

The Arsenal fan countered: "See who has the last laugh, can you forget who was fighting for second place in the table at the end of last season?" ”

……

Heavy rain fell on the continent on the last day of September, and the second round of the Champions League kicked off that evening.

The giants from all walks of life began to grab points, and they wanted to occupy the top two places in the group.

Inter took advantage of the home advantage and beat Bremen by four goals, showing the true colors of last season's treble!

Tottenham also took advantage of home advantage, beating Eredivisie giants Twente by three goals to achieve their first Champions League victory.

Manchester United beat Valencia by a narrow goal away to shake off the slump of the previous round and catch up again.

The biggest upset occurred at the Kazan Center Stadium, where the Russian Premier League powerhouse Kazan took advantage of the home advantage and drew 1-1 with Barcelona, known as the "Universe Team"!

The next night, the next four groups played.

The Bundesliga giants continued to be strong, knocking out Basel away from home to make it two wins in a row; Chelsea regained their confidence with a 2-0 win at home to Marseille.

Real Madrid also won two in a row, with the Blancos beating AJ Auxerre by a single goal.

AC Milan were hit hard at Ajax's home stadium and they had to leave the Stade Amsterdam with a 1-1 scoreline.

In this round, Arsenal traveled to Serbia to challenge the Belgrad Partizan at the Guerrilla Stadium.

The Partizans suffered a narrow defeat to Shakhtar Donetsk in the first round and said before the game that they would use their home advantage to win their first Champions League win against the unbeatable Arsenal.

For the Premier League London derby three days later, Arsene Wenger did not send all his main players, and even the Dutch duo sat on the bench.

Arsene Wenger's meaning is very clear, if the starting line-up can win the opponent, then the Dutch duo can sit on the bench and recharge.

If the starting line-up couldn't win the game, he was making the two substitutions in the second half.

Arsenal really didn't have enough depth on the bench compared to the other big three, and Arsene Wenger didn't add reinforcements this summer.

Therefore, how to use the "Dutch double evil" is very important to Arsenal and will directly affect the team's final results.

Once the game began, Partizan Belgrad took advantage of home advantage and launched a strong attack on Arsenal.

It is clear that Arsenal's seven consecutive wins in all competitions since the start of the season has been a huge boost to the morale of the Arsenal players, who are at their peak in self-confidence.

Therefore, in the face of the opponent's strong attack, they coped with it with ease, busy and not panicked.

After withstanding a wave of onslaught, Arsenal launched a counter-attack under the command of Cesc Fabregas.

A clash of attacks unfolded at the Partizan Stadium, and in the 27th minute of the first half, Arsenal took the lead in a corner kick opportunity and Song broke the deadlock.

Thirteen minutes later, Partizan Belgrad equalised from a free-kick.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and the scene was still stalemate, and reporters on the sidelines were calculating when the Dutch duo would play.

At that moment, Cesc Fabregas suddenly fired a shot from outside the penalty area, and the football blasted open the opponent's goal!

Two to one!

Arsenal are ahead again!

Partizan Belgrad, who were behind the score, launched a furious attack on Arsenal in the next game, and the wave of attacks grew stronger.

Arsene Wenger began to make substitutions, and Chen Fan came on.

Soon after the game, Chen Fan got the opportunity, Arsenal launched a long pass in the backfield to quickly counterattack, Chen Fan used the speed advantage to control the football, and then killed the opponent's penalty area.

In the face of the opposing two's defense, Chen Fan passed the football to the feet of Arshavin, who followed up in the middle.

The Russian took the football into the opponent's penalty area and scored with a low shot!

Three to one!

Arsenal extend their lead!

The Belgrad TV commentator said helplessly: "Chen's speed is too fast, without this goal, the partizan team would continue to have hope of equalizing, but now it is too difficult to equalize." ”

It's too difficult to fall behind by two goals?

Not only that, but because Chen Fan is a sharp weapon for Arsenal's rapid counterattack, and if the guerrillas press on it on a large scale, it will inevitably cause a void in the rear air defense.

At that time, when Arsenal launched a long pass and a quick counterattack, who could stop Chen Fan?

After the resumption of the game, the guerrillas were hesitant and did not devote as many troops to the attack as before.

The guerrilla coach was very unhappy with this, yelling in the command area, signaling the players to press.

The British reporter on the sidelines couldn't help but shake his head, this is looking for abuse......

Sure enough, in the 39th minute of the second half, Arsenal took advantage of a fast goal kick to launch a quick counterattack.

Under the interference of Cesc Fabregas, there was a problem with the ball at the back of the opponent's back, and the clearance turned into an assist, and the football flew in front of his penalty area!

How could Chen Fan waste such a big gift, I saw him speeding like lightning, facing the guerrilla goalkeeper who abandoned the door, and directly shot with one kick!

Football flies over the heads of the guerrilla goalkeepers!

The ball is in!

Four to one!

Arsenal seal the win!

What is surprising is that there was thunderous applause in the stands, which was the home fans cheering for Chen Fan.

This made the partisan players full of shame.

After the game, a Dutch reporter interviewed the home fans and asked them why they gave Chen Fan a round of applause?

The fan said: "Chen is my idol, and he is also the idol of many young people. Is there a problem with applauding an idol when he scores? ”
