"This ......" Wang Shuai looked at the information displayed on the webpage on the computer, a little dumbfounded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It was the night before the game against Arsenal, and Wang Shuai was checking the FA's official website every day for the latest information, as usual.

Then, he saw this piece of news-

"Arsenal officially announced, striker Obilaiye is out of injury for two months"

“……

Obilaiye suddenly collapsed during training a few days ago and was diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament after seeking medical attention, and the recovery time is expected to be two months.

Two months' time, which means Obileyer will be out for the first half of the season and he will miss out on the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup and the third round of the FA Cup. And if Arsenal can progress in tomorrow's Carabao Cup, Obileyer will miss the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

As Arsenal's core striker, Obileye's injury will undoubtedly make Arsenal's attack greatly reduced.

……”

Wang Shuai certainly knows Obilaiye, the Arsenal striker who has broken through the 180 master line in accuracy and strength, is undoubtedly the biggest challenge to the Villa backline. In the past two days, Villa's defensive and tactical training has also been conducted against Obilaiye.

But now, Arsenal's strongest point of attack has been unexpectedly injured. Although Villa's targeted training has been in vain for the past two days, it is indeed good news.

Arsenal are now in sixth place, but they only concede 10th goals per game, thanks to Obileye's superior attacking ability.

In this regard, Arsenal and Liverpool are very similar, both teams rely on attack, and even Liverpool concede more goals per game than Arsenal. It's just that Liverpool's offense is also better than Arsenal's, and Liverpool's offensive end relies on four people, which is far from Arsenal's ability to compare with Obilaiye alone, so Liverpool's current record is much better than Arsenal's.

Everyone knows that Arsenal will make big moves in the winter transfer window, and in fact there have been two transfer news about Arsenal that have already been exposed. But before the squad could be strengthened, the lone Obilaiye was injured, which made Arsenal a toothless tiger with no claws, to be kneaded.

And the first one to knead them was Aston Villa.

……

Emirates Stadium.

When the Emirates Stadium was completed in 2006, Arsenal also signed a new shirt sponsor, Emirates, and a 15-year naming contract, meaning that after this season, the stadium that has been with Arsenal for 15 years is likely to be renamed.

In fact, Villa also has a lot of ties to the Emirates Stadium. On 19 August 2006, the Emirates Stadium played its first Premier League match since its completion, against Arsenal and Aston Villa, and the two teams drew 1-1.

For 15 years, Arsenal have maintained a 65 per cent home win rate at the Emirates Stadium, the second highest of all teams in the Premier League behind Manchester United's Old Trafford. But today, Arsenal had to accept a defeat.

Russell Green, known as the 'Godfather of Arsenal', has been in charge of Arsenal for 25 seasons and is the longest-serving coach of the same team in the Premier League. Russell has brought Arsenal numerous accolades and has always kept Arsenal at the forefront of the Premier League. It wasn't until five years ago that an economic scandal broke out at the club's top brass and plunged the team into a slump, and it took three seasons to recover.

Russell has been reinventing Arsenal since last season, and this year, with the introduction of Obilaiye, the team is finally on track again, as long as the team's defense is strengthened in the winter, Arsenal will regain their former glory.

As a result, Obilaiye was injured.

This suddenly made Russell feel that it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

Originally, even if Obilaiye was injured, Russell would have a limited headache. Because the rest of the players in Arsenal's starting line-up, even if they are not strong, are relative to those top teams. And against other Premier League teams, this squad is not weak, and with Russell's own coaching ability, he believes that the team's record will not be too bad in the period without Obilaiye.

But today is different, and today's opponent is Aston Villa.

Is Vera strong? It's not strong, at least not compared to the top teams. Just look at the record of this season, losing to Tottenham, losing to Liverpool, drawing with Manchester City, and drawing with Everton, which shows that Villa's strength is also in the league level.

But in the games against other teams, Villa have kept winning all of them, what does that mean? This shows that Villa's performances are surprisingly consistent and there will never be an upset, even if they do, they have won against a strong team. In the face of this team, Russell, who has lost Obilaiye, really has no confidence, because he knows that Arsenal, which lacks the strongest attack point, is not a strong team at all.

Indeed, Villa scored one goal each in the first half and finally advanced to the semi-finals of the League Cup with a score of 2-0.

With a score of 2:0, it doesn't seem like a big difference, but Russell doesn't think much of it. He saw very clearly that Villa suppressed Arsenal throughout the game, and his side did not get any good attacking opportunities at all. This means that Villa focused on possession and did not speed up the attack, otherwise Russell estimated that the gap between the two sides would widen further.

……

Wang Shuai was not surprised by the win against Arsenal, or he was not surprised by the result after knowing that Obilaiye was injured.

After this race, the first half of the season also entered the final month. Villa's December fixtures include six Premier League games in addition to one Europa League group stage.

Needless to say, in the group stage of the Europa League, Wang Shuai has no intention of letting the main team participate in the game since he locked the group ahead of schedule, as was the case in the last away game against Vienna, and the same is true for this home game against Roma.

In fact, not only Vera, but Rome is now thinking the same way. With only one round left in the group stage, Roma have 10 points from 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, and although they have no hope of catching up with Villa, they are also 4 points ahead of third-place Plzen, which means that the qualification place for Group E has been determined in advance. So in this last round of games, Roma will not be stupid enough to send the main force to England.

Three of the remaining six league games are noteworthy, with Villa facing Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal. One of the easiest opponents to deal with is naturally Arsenal, after all, Obilaiye has not recovered from injury at that time, and the winter transfer window has not opened, Arsenal is still in the weakest period of this season, Wang Shuai does not mind beating the water dogs again.
