Chapter 166: The Gunslinger Is Coming

The draw for the UEFA Cup has been settled, and it has David Winston settled a big deal. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But with this out of the way, the next serious challenge is David Winston. That is the next opponent in the Premier League is Arsenal, who are now fourth in the Premier League table. Is Mr. Wenger starting to settle in fourth place now, man, really stable.

Speaking of the Arsenal team, in fact, the Arsenal team has entered a period of weakness this season, paving the way for the subsequent championshipless era and the fourth place. David Winston believes that this is not a person's fault, but at that time, Arsenal Club and Arsène Wenger made a series of moves to make Arsenal Club no longer so strong, and it always makes people infinitely reverie in the early stage, but at the critical moment, it always drops the chain infinitely, and then loses the possibility of winning the championship in vain, and then continues to prepare for the championship next season, day after day, year after year, until David Winston in the previous life did not cross into this world, Arsenal have only just won the FA Cup. Of course, the reasons for this situation can be divided into two aspects: Arsenal FC and Arsène Wenger. The construction of a new stadium, the Emirates Stadium, led to a sudden tightening of the Arsenal club's financial situation. This season is also the last season of the Arsenal team at Highbury Stadium, and of course the last home game of the season, Thierry Henry left a classic Highbury kiss footage at Highbury Stadium, and it was also after this season that Thierry Henry arrived at the new stadium Emirates Stadium in his first year with a series of injuries, coupled with the departure of Arsenal's key figure Dane and Arsenal's lack of championships for many years, Thierry Henry eventually moved to Barcelona in Spain after a season, where he finally tasted many trophies he hadn't met, and of course, the European Champions Cup, which he had always dreamed of. And Mr. Arsène Wenger because of the club's financial problems and his own series of problems, the annual transfer market always buys a little cheap players, often these players can play their own combat effectiveness in the usual game, but in the European Champions Cup or major cup competitions, there is no ability to resist pressure, there is no absolute star ability to finish the game. This is what the Arsenal team has been criticized by football experts in recent years. And the most bizarre thing is to buy a captain a year, which seems to have become a glorious tradition of the Arsenal team. Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Francisco Fabregas, Robin van Persie, Miguel Arteta, Thomas Vermaelen. These players are the captains of the Arsenal team sold in the previous life, almost Arsenal's captain's armband has become an unexplained spell in the hearts of all Arsenal players, this captain's armband is a departure application, and wearing Arsenal's captain's armband means that you can find the next club. And most of Arsenal's captains have gone to Barcelona, which is also a strange phenomenon.

Okay, let's go back to the Premier League coming up. The current Arsenal squad is still much stronger than Southampton, and David Winston admits that. But even in the powerful there is a vulnerable side. Achilles' heel is a fatal flaw. And the fatal flaw of the Arsenal team is also the back, but not the heels of the players, but the heels of the whole team, that is, the Arsenal team's backline. Let's take a look at Arsenal's four regular starting defenders this season. Lauren, Chloe Toure, Gal Klich and Switzerland's tall centre-back Philippe Sylvain Senderos. It is this Philippe Sylvain Senderos who is the Achilles heel of the entire Arsenal team, his performances are always inconsistent, David Winston in the previous life was very impressed with the performance of this player, sometimes he can play a world-class central defender when he performs well, and sometimes he can become a worst central defender when he performs poorly. David Winston remembers playing Arsenal and Chelsea in the Community Shield one year. As a result, in the game, the strong and skeletal central defender Philippe Sylvain Sendros was abused by Chelsea's Warcraft center Didier Drogba, who was really abused into a bomb, specializing in defending Didier Drogba, but was counter-educated by Didier Drogba in the game, fighting for the body, fighting for the body, fighting for defense, fighting for defense, fighting for speed, and ..... That's definitely not going to work. It would be a fool's dream for a three-player to defend against Didier Drogba, who was already dominating the Quartet and invincible, so the key point in this game was the breakthrough of central defender Philippe Sylvain Sendros. Although Southampton does not have an unusually strong player like Didier Drogba, there are many players with very good skills in the Southampton team, although they are not in good shape, but in the face of poor flexibility, slow turning, very clumsy central defenders, their advantages are also very obvious, they can use their flexibility, technology to shake off this kind of central defenders blocking and tackling, to achieve the opportunity to contribute to the team.

Having said that, David Winston and his Southampton side will still have a hard time winning the game, and they still need to be more brave than Arsenal and have more advantages than Arsenal. Of course, David Winston will not let this game affect his line-up, and he still uses his basic line-up to face Arsenal's attacking unbeatable forward line-up. Of course, David Winston still trusts his players and Southampton is in a very good mood and the atmosphere is very relaxed and harmonious, which is especially important before the game against Arsenal. David Winston is afraid that before the players play against such a strong team, they will be nervous and can't let go, and they can't let go of themselves during the game, resulting in their ability and level not being able to really play. Thankfully, David Winston didn't see these unexpected, negative situations, which David Winston was most pleased with. (To be continued.) )
