47 Temporary Captain
"I probably won't be able to make it through the second half, sir. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" whispered Laurent Koscielny.
He was already injured after being kicked in the ball by Robert Lewandowski in the first half, but the Arsenal captain gritted his teeth and persevered until the end of the first half.
No one wants to miss such an important game, and for the second captain of Arsenal with a strong sense of responsibility, it feels very uncomfortable to be injured at this time and unable to help the team.
Patting the shoulder, Arsène Wenger said: "Don't force it, just rest well in the second half, believe your teammates, especially the palm, with him, don't worry." ”
Koscielny looked at Zhang Zhetian, who was talking and laughing with Héctor Bellerin, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and joked to Peter Cech on the side: "The performance of the palm is so good, you have been guarding the water cooler." ”
Cech smiled: "As long as the team can keep winning and winning the championship, the caretaker will be guarded. ”
He added in his heart: "It's not that I haven't taken it." ”
After Steve Boulder learned that Koscielny was injured and could not play in the second half, he told his coaching staff outside the pitch to let Brazilian centre-back Gabriel Paulista warm up.
"Boss, Laurent can't play, who is the captain for?" Boulder walked over to Arsene Wenger and whispered.
The captain is the soul of a team, and in the world of football, whoever plays the best is the captain.
To put it simply, the captain is not the best in the team, but he is definitely the most capable of leadership.
When a team chooses a captain, it not only considers the technical and tactical factors on the field, but also the off-field influence, the weight of the dressing room and other factors.
To be a good football captain, at least:
1. On the field, you must be able to remind the command team to carry out the overall operation at any time, and maintain enough passion, and the low morale on the field can boost and encourage the morale of your teammates in time, and change the trend of the game at critical moments.
2. When emergencies such as conflicts break out on the spot, keep a clear head, stand up for your teammates in time, and protect your teammates.
3. Locker room leaders should dare to fight for the interests of their teammates, and be able to communicate actively and effectively with the head coach and team owner at any time when the team has problems.
4. In the official competition, according to the rules of the event, complete some process affairs (captain on the field), jump the side, communicate with the referee about the penalty issue, etc.
A good football captain is the equivalent of a manager on the field and a team manager off the field, functioning mentally and building an image for the team outside of the game.
The captains of most teams are defenders because they have a good sense of the big picture, can see the situation on the field at the back, direct the defense, and remind their teammates. Defenders are generally more stable, plus tough and domineering, so they are very suitable for captaining the team.
Bayern Munich's first captain Philippe Lahm and second captain Manuel Neuer are the backfield players, with only third captain Thomas Muller up front.
As for Arsenal, first captain Per Mertesacker has been injured for a long time, so second captain Koscielny has been the captain of the team this season, and both are central defenders.
According to the comprehensive comparison of the qualifications and abilities of the first-team players, in the absence of the two, the captains are Santi Cazorla, Petr Cech, Theo Walcott, Granit Xhaka, and Kieran Gibbs.
Originally, according to the order, he should have been the captain of the Swiss national team, but Xhaka's impulsiveness and high medal rate are unreassuring, and the only thing left is Arsenal's homegrown academy veteran Gibbs.
"Isn't there a better candidate now?" Arsene Wenger smiled and looked at Zhang Zhetian, who was messing with his teammates.
As the players from both sides entered the stadium to start the second half, the sixth official held up his substitution card and Arsenal's No.5 Paulista replaced the injured Koscielny.
"Ah, change so early, is K6 injured?"
"Come on the Violence Tower, hold on to the three points!"
"Who is the captain of Arsenal now?"
"It should be Xhaka, he is the captain of the Swiss national team, and he was also the captain when he was at Borussia Mönchenchen."
"I didn't see him wearing the captain's armband."
"Not him? Could it be Gibbs? When Little Tiger doesn't play, he is the oldest. ”
"It's not him, either."
"Who's that?"
"Look! Look! ”
"Oh my God! It's him! ”
"555......, why am I crying?"
"My mother asked me why I knelt in front of the computer, and I said that I saw the pride of Huaguo!"
"From today on, my idol is Zhang Zhetian!"
"Who dares to say that the strength of our Chinese players is not good?"
……
A close-up of everyone's screen shows Zhang Zhetian's left arm, wearing Arsenal's captain's armband.
"Holy! The palm is actually the captain? Marc Ter Stegen exclaimed with an incredulous expression.
"Palm, I'm getting more and more eager to work with you." Pep Guardiola sighed.
"What? Xiaotian is the captain? Xiaotian is the captain? It's true? Don't bully the old lady for not knowing the ball! Zhang Ying excitedly grabbed the chest of the fifth junior brother Ma Yunbiao and shouted.
"It's unbelievable that after Arsenal captain Koscielny was injured, the person who served as the temporary captain on the field was actually in charge." Leo Ferdinand sighed.
Ian Wright smiled and nodded with a rightful expression, and he felt that Wenger had made the right choice.
'This is Arsenal's first-ever Chinese captain and the youngest captain in Arsenal's history, having previously been the Gunners' legendary centre-back Thomas Adams, who was appointed at the age of 21 years and 82 days. Martin Taylor said: "Arsene Wenger has been at Arsenal for 20 years, and under his tenure, there have been 10 official captains, although Zhang Zhetian is only temporary captain on the field, but as the first captain Mertesacker and second captain Koscielny get older and have more injuries, the Chinese with leadership potential may become Wenger's 11th captain next season." ”
"Since Vieira was sold to Juventus, Arsenal's captain has become a well-known must-sell, Gilberto, Galla, Cesc Fabregas, Van Persie, Vermaelen, all can't escape the end of being sold, only Arteta left because his contract expired, which ended the 'curse' that whoever became the Gunners captain must be sold." Zhan Jun said with a smile.
"Mr. Zhan is just joking, Arsenal fans don't be angry. Although Zhang Zhetian only served as the captain temporarily in this game, when Mertesacker returns and Koscielny returns, the captain will still be theirs. Seeing the dissatisfaction and concern of the Gunners fans on the barrage, Chen Xirong immediately played a round.
In fact, Zhanjun, who is a die-hard Liverpool fan, thinks that Wenger will quickly let Zhang Zhetian be the captain, and then sell it to our army, and the two goalkeepers of our army will not work.
Glancing at the captain's armband on his left arm, Zhang Zhetian's eyes flashed.
"I'm going to win this game!"
Because I'm the captain!
