Chapter 1188: Unstoppable Bell
When Crouch deflected Bale's corner kick wide, George Allen in the media box looked annoyed with his head in his hands. He was joined by a few other people who knew George Allen, who were journalists covering Tottenham Hotspur games, and who were part of the pro-Tottenham faction.
In this game, George Allen, a die-hard Arsenal fan, also turned into a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur.
It's inconceivable that supporters of Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, a pair of sworn enemies in north London, could be in the same trench......
If it weren't for Manchester City, if it weren't for glory, something like this would never have happened!
George Allen also finds it ironic that Arsenal will have to look to their local rivals Tottenham Hotspur if they are to retain their record. And if Tottenham Hotspur hates Arsenal to the core, deliberately let it go...... Arsenal only suffered this dumb loss.
Thankfully, Tottenham are battling Chelsea for fourth place in the league and have to prevent Liverpool from sixth to fifth...... So this game they have to win.
Meanwhile, it was Arsenal who played against Liverpool.
George Allen has wondered if Arsenal have to put more pressure on Tottenham Hotspur by falling behind at home to Liverpool in order to make Tottenham more motivated.
However, in the unlikely event that Arsenal do lose to Liverpool, Arsenal will be overtaken by Chelsea, who beat West Bromwich Albion 3-1 away in the game that has already ended. As it stands, Chelsea have equalled Arsenal's points and if they lose, they will be one point behind Chelsea......
Tottenham Hotspur will be in direct competition with Arsenal, not Chelsea.
So for an unbeaten league record, if Arsenal don't finish fourth in the league...... Which one has more losses?
George Allen had thought about not coming to the game, but when it was time to play, he still came.
He still had some luck in his heart, thinking that he would be on hand to witness Tottenham Hotspur's victory over Manchester City.
Judging from the first few minutes of the game, Tottenham Hotspur were in good form and could really threaten Manchester City's goal.
Especially Bell.
Thinking of this, George Allen was still a little proud in his heart.
He thinks that Bell's state was inspired by himself.
Because the article that criticized Bale before the game and said that Glory is his idol was the first thing he wrote......
Subsequently, his views were echoed by a number of other media outlets.
And now seeing that Bale's table is so good, George Allen naturally thinks that it is because his criticism has stimulated Bale, in order to avoid suspicion, Bell can only desperately show Xiàn in this game in order to wash away the suspicion of "releasing water".
He has a sense of "mastery".
Now all he has to do is wait for Bale to kill Manchester City, where his idol is located......

In the next race, Bell was really good, and that breakthrough was not a flash in the pan.
He was firmly pressed down the left flank by Manchester City's right-back Zabaleta. Zabaleta is usually a full-back with a strong ability to assist, and he and Leyton Barnes have taken turns to provide assists in the game, which is also one of Manchester City's attacking routines.
But in this game, Zabaleta didn't even dare to cross the halfway line to assist.
Because Bell was watching the huge void behind him all the time.
If he presses up and attacks, Tottenham will definitely play on his side.
With his speed, he didn't want to catch up with the running Bell......
Fifteen minutes into the game, Zabaleta now feels like it wasn't his delusion.
He really felt like he was playing against Glory, not in training, but in competition.
Across from him was the glory of Tottenham Hotspur's autumn shirt......
This feeling made him feel a lot of pressure in the game, focusing on defending with all his might, let alone assisting.
"I believe that if Bale's watch for this game is seen by Real Madrid, it is estimated that they will want to buy Bale even more!" John Mortenson quipped.
There have been rumours of Real Madrid taking a fancy to Bale lately, with some vowing that Bale will leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer.
But there are also those who say Bale has reached an agreement with Tottenham Hotspur and that he will not leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer if they qualify for next season's Champions League.
And Bell's own response to this incident was: "...... I'm a Tottenham Hotspur player now and now we're aiming to qualify for the Champions League next season. Until then, don't talk about anything else......"
His expression was very serious when he said this, and his mood was also very serious when he said this.
He's really serious about working towards Champions League qualification.
Last season almost didn't happen, and this time he doesn't want to fall before the finish line again.
The game against Manchester City was a very crucial one.
As long as Tottenham can win, they will no longer be so far away from the top four in the league.
Of course, the most important thing is that if Tottenham Hotspur can beat Manchester City, who have not lost for a whole season, it will greatly boost the morale and confidence of the players, and there will be nothing to stop them from rushing to next season's Champions League in the next five league games.
Unbeknownst to Bale, there was a low-key Real Madrid scout sitting in the stands at Manchester City Stadium.
He's looking at Bale's play.
His scouting report will determine how much Real Madrid are willing to pay for bringing in Beal.
From the start of the match so far, he has been satisfied with Bale's watch.
Bell was amazed by his speed.
Watching it on video and watching it live are two completely different feelings.
Watching Bale break through Zabaleta again and again, he had the feeling of standing on the edge of the tracks and having a high-speed train whistling in front of him.
If Bale can continue to play like this, Real Madrid are clearly willing to shell out more money for him.
※※※
Bale didn't know that Real Madrid were watching him from such a close distance, but he was feeling good right now.
He had a feeling that he was enjoying the game, and that feeling hadn't been with him for a long time.
In the past, Bale was playing under a lot of pressure.
Gareth Bale actually made a name for himself early, as early as the age of 16, playing for Southampton and attracting a lot of attention from Premier League clubs. His roommate in Southampton, Theo Walcott, was picked by Arsenal and he himself is a favourite at Manchester United.
At that time, he was still playing at left-back, and it wasn't his pace that attracted the most attention at the time, but his free-kicks. Because his first and second goals for Southampton were scored from free-kicks......
Bale later opted to join Tottenham Hotspur, which at the time seemed like his future was inferior to joining Theo Walcott, Arsenal's roommate who was known for developing young people.
However, Bale clearly had his own considerations, and the reason why he chose Tottenham Hotspur over Manchester United was because Tottenham Hotspur promised to give him more playing opportunities, and United only intended to put him in the youth team and the development team.
At that time, Walcott, who moved to Arsenal, received more attention than Bale, and Walcott had already earned the nickname "Little Tiger". Bell was still obscure.
But as Bale's chances of playing at Tottenham Hotspur grew, he became more widely known.
Fresh from joining Tottenham Hotspur, he scored three goals in four games, including a free-kick in the north London derby against Arsenal.
It looks like he's going to have better momentum than Walcott......
But then he got injured and went off on 2 December 2007 against Birmingham City, leaving him out for the rest of the season.
Since the start of the 2008-2009 season, Bale has played 24 consecutive games for Tottenham Hotspur, Tottenham Hotspur have not won a single game, which has led many fans to call him "unlucky" ("bale" means "bad luck" or "disaster" in English slang). At that time, the Daily Telegraph's football column also featured under the headline "The Bell Curse".
Compared with the title of his roommate "Little Tiger", the nickname "Unlucky" is inferior. This also put Bell under a lot of pressure.
Then, in 2009, he underwent knee surgery due to injury and missed all the pre-season games of the 2009-2010 season.
A series of injuries have left Bale's Tottenham Hotspur watch never living up to expectations, which has put him under tremendous pressure.
Eventually, Redknapp's decision to move him from left-back to left-wing-back made him shine, and Bale has since confirmed his ability to play both as a left wing-back and as a left-winger.
This season, it was Bale's excellent performance that gave Tottenham Hotspur a chance to fight for a top-four finish in the league, and now he is in the middle of a transfer turmoil.
The endless arguments and excessive attention made him feel exhausted. The feeling of playing football purely because I loved it as a child has gradually disappeared.
But now, he has rediscovered his original feeling because he wants to desperately show himself in front of his idol.
This made him very happy and relaxed.
At the same time, it is precisely because of his current affection that he is becoming more and more brilliant in the competition.
After breaking through Zabaleta for the fourth time in the game, Bale didn't choose to cross, but suddenly cut inside and chose to shoot with his left foot!
It was a powerful shot that caught Joe Hart in a hurry, but instead of flying into the goal, the ball hit the near post and bounced off the line!
"Gareth Bell! Oh! What a pity! Goalpost! John Mortenson exclaimed in regret. But soon he excitedly said, "Bell can't stop it!" Zabaleta was the best right-back in the Premier League last season, but in front of Bale's onslaught, he looked like a clown! ”
'It's only been 25 minutes and Benitez can't replace Zabaleta. Manchester City's right side defence is now in jeopardy, and Tottenham Hotspur have put all their attacking firepower on this side. If City don't make any moves, they're going to concede goals......"
