After a few days of hype, a murmur began to bubble up in the London media. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It's not hard to see why.

Without a championship in hand, no amount of personal accolades is convincing. In his second year at Arsenal, Jumo still did not bring a heavyweight title to the club, but Manchester United, who had already been overturned, pressed on Arsenal's head for the second year in a row, snatching two league titles and an FA Cup from them.

Although the team's breakthrough in the Champions League is obvious to all, the saddest thing in competitive sports is the runner-up, let alone winning three in a row!

This gives media outlets who are bent on using negative news to gain attention, and when people are tired of aesthetic fatigue with beautiful words, they can immediately cause a good response.

As a client, You Mo has long been accustomed to seeing it, and there will be no mood swings at all. But the noise that comes out in the run-up to the FA Cup final will inevitably have a negative impact on the enthusiastic players.

After all, last season's league championship was lost by their lack of courage, and even strictly speaking, in this season's league title race, they made consecutive mistakes and lost points at a critical stage, which is the real culprit!

It's obviously their mistake, but they have to let Yu Mo bear the criticism, this kind of thing is the most difficult for the angry guys to accept.

In addition to the panic, it is still the panic!

"Ah, no, I've heard that the British media love to tell right and wrong, but I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated!"

Sitting in a London taxi with a whopping 15 yuan per kilometer, Li Tie and Li Jingyu put their heads together to study a newspaper and came to a conclusion for a while.

The two have also established themselves in their respective teams, each has played well, and both have made considerable progress. But to be honest, the level of Ligue 1 is there, and Nancy and Metz are only mid-table teams, so it is not worth boasting about achieving such results.

Fortunately, the two knew this, and they did not rush to return to China at the end of the season to invite credit, and set off for the holy land in their hearts as soon as they packed up.

The result was more tragic, Da Yu arrived at the airport only to find that he had lost his passport, and it took four days to reapply for a tourist visa to make the trip. Li Tien originally planned to abandon him ruthlessly, but unfortunately he was hugged by his thigh and was not allowed to go.

It wasn't until the day before the FA Cup final that the pair arrived at their destination.

"There's no way, it's no wonder that Lu Wei is too violent, and he actually staged a terrifying moment at the last minute!" Li Jingyu shook his head, not without regret.

In fact, it really made him regret that he couldn't participate in it.

"Which side do you like in the final?" Li Tien is much more secure than him, although he is the former captain, but now he only intends to move forward step by step.

"Of course the boss, are you a Stoke City fan?" Li Jingyu looked disdainful and shook his head, as if there was an idiot sitting next to him.

Li Tie really wanted to kick him under the car and stay, considering the international influence, he gave up, and said: "The FA Cup is just a piece of cake, the big drama is still to come, and now there are many people outside who are optimistic about Arsenal, I think Manchester United is a little underestimated." In fact, it is not bad for the media to sing the opposite tone before the game, saving some guys from being unable to hold their breath and dropping the chain at a critical moment! ”

Hearing this, Li Jingyu's head shook like a rattle, "Wenger will not underestimate Ferguson, and Lu Wei knows the weakness of the boss better than anyone else!" ”

"Huh?" Li Tieleng for a moment, and for a while a full of thoughts came to him, but he couldn't speak.

Li Jingyu's face rarely became serious, and he asked and answered himself, and muttered: "Those opponents who seem to be strong are no more terrifying than those who really know themselves......

An hour and a half later, in the living room of the home.

The dizzy two guys finally found their destination, tired and dizzy, and their legs cramped, which was even more exaggerated than playing a game.

There were many complaints about each other along the way, and they still slandered each other after seeing the main master.

"If it weren't for Da Yu losing his passport, we would have come here three days ago!"

"If it's not a post, if it's not a post, if it's not a long ugly post, we, we, we ......"

Seeing that the two were tearing and tearing to fight, Wang * Dan on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and asked out loud: "What about the daughters-in-law of the two of you, why didn't you come together?" ”

As soon as they heard this, the two guys scrambled to say, "The one in my family went back to China, and he said that he couldn't think about homesickness!" ”

After saying that, he began to tear again.

"Do you learn from me to do hair, is the man who can't control his daughter-in-law still a real man?"

"I'm embarrassed to say me, you soft-eared guy, you can't listen to grievances!"

Wang Dan was confused when he heard this, and he only felt tired when he looked at the two of them, so he turned his head and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

You Mo couldn't help laughing, and said with regret: "I guess it's because my family is thinking about it, and it will take half a month to come to my side." ”

As soon as these words came out, the two guys who were originally giggling complained about their bitterness at the same time.

"It's not, I haven't been out of the door so far when I'm so big, how can my father and mother not remember it!"

"The one in my family muttered a lot, saying that if it weren't for the urgency of the family, I really wanted to come and take a look!"

Wang Dan nodded, a smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's a good thing to know that you are considerate of your family." There will be opportunities in the future, so don't rush this time. ”

After a casual chat, the topic came to the next day's competition.

"Stoke City is not a soft persimmon, boss, you have drawn with them in both legs this season, right?" Li asked, looking at the other party a little nervously.

He knows very well that the FA Cup may not seem to be heavy, but it is the strength of the current Arsenal team, and it is also the first title that Youmo can bring after two years here. If you lose a good game because of a light opponent, then after losing two titles in a row, morale will fall to the bottom, and the pressure of the Champions League final will increase in vain!

On the contrary, in the face of such a poor performance by their rivals, the Manchester United's originally shaken confidence will be strengthened, and the possibility of completing the epic task in one go is extremely high!

After all, the two teams know the bottom line, and in a decisive game, the gap in strength on paper is not as big as imagined, but the role of morale is fully amplified, which is enough to make up for the lack of strength.

What's more, Manchester United has a lot of experience in winning championships, and Arsenal's performance in the cup is not reassuring, with the quarter-finals and semi-finals all winning first and then losing, and finally getting through the danger. If you make a mistake in the Champions League final due to inexperience, there will be no second leg to make up for it.

In this way, the significance of the FA Cup final in front of us is obviously beyond any previous edition, and it has become a roadblock on the road to the giants!

Stoke City has always been known for defending counterattacks + long passes, and air defense is Arsenal's most criticized problem. It's also not easy to break through dense defenses, it's common to not be able to attack for a long time, and it's normal to be sneak attacked. If you don't have a good mindset to face the possible difficulties, your opponents are likely to pull off an upset and win one of the heaviest titles in the club's history!

In the face of such a hard bone, will it be like last season, defeated?

"yes, haven't beaten them this season." You Mo said casually, and asked with a smile, "Do you have any good suggestions, let's listen to them?" ”

As soon as he heard this, the person concerned was still pondering, but the guy next to him frowned.

Wang Dan was struck by the familiar situation, but did not speak.

Li Jingyu instead said what was on her mind.

"Ah, boss, the five toes of the posts are stupid, and you still count on him?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Dan was suddenly a little embarrassed.

The hostess, generous, be generous!

Before he could speak, Li Tie shook his head unexpectedly.

"How can the boss have no idea in his heart, he is just helping us gain experience, so as not to panic when we encounter a similar situation in the future."

......

Wembley Stadium, 19 May 2000.

Be booked up!

With more than 90,000 seats, the stadium has become the home of most of Arsenal and has become a treasure trove this season. Whether it is Arsene Wenger's old enemy Marseille, Thierry Henry's old club Juventus, or Real Madrid, which was the favorite to win the title not long ago, they all returned home with hatred in this stadium.

As an Englishman, how can you not be proud of this!

Even if they aren't Arsenal fans, they'll be talking about the Champions League final win between the two Premier League sides. And the biggest contribution is made by this team that has been criticized and popular this season.

Arsenal, Arsenal!

Of course, the tactically conservative and ugly Stoke City team is indeed unlikable, which to some extent strengthens the home atmosphere and makes everyone feel like they are in Highbury.

Listening to the neat and loud "hotstuff", they seem to return to the glorious season of '97 and '98.

"Nothing can stop us from starting the new season

Wright, Wright, Wright is everything

Let's step into the wonderland that Bergkamp has to offer

Parol is the light that shines in our hearts

Let's see how Arsenal show themselves......"

It's a pity that there are not many generals left in the song, except for Bergkamp and Vieira, the rest of the veterans have gradually disappeared on the field, and it is rare to see the majesty of the past.

It's only been two years, and the feeling of being a person makes people feel the cruelty and ruthlessness of competitive sports.

If it weren't for the more outstanding performance of the team in front of him, the nostalgia in the song would have become extremely sad.

"Mark isn't doing well right now, he's failing your efforts."

By the end of the song, the players' warm-up had come to an end, and Bergkamp had a cold remark as he walked to the sidelines.

You Mo heard it clearly, so he turned his head and smiled, "Everyone is working hard for the goals in their hearts, and when the goals coincide, we can better help each other." If that game is lost to his opponent, Mark will be in a dilemma. That's an outcome we don't want to see. ”

"No!" Bergkamp said coldly: "He knows that Barcelona is not his home, and it is stupid and naïve to decide his career on the spur of the moment!" ”

"Perhaps." You Mo sighed rarely, "Mark's heart is too soft, and he has no regrets in his career......."

Interrupted before he could finish, Bergkamp shook his head expressionlessly.

"People always overestimate their mental capacity, always!"

After saying that, the Dutch left a back for each other.

You Mo froze a little and walked quickly to the sidelines.

Arsene Wenger greeted him, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

The French would not have been so enthusiastic before, and it was not until the old man was in danger in front of him that he made up his mind to make a change.

You Mo did the same, nodded and said, "Dennis thought of Mark, and he was probably a little sad in his heart. ”

"Oh...... Yes, Louis van Gaal has resigned, and Mark is in an awkward position right now. Wenger said casually, with a pensive expression, and did not speak for a while.

Half an hour later.

As they were about to reach the players' tunnel, Arsene Wenger called out to Youmo and the two walked side by side, walking at the end of the line.

"You think of Mark once in a while, don't you?"

"What about you?"

"yes, so do I. There are even times when I wonder if they will regret their decision. ”

"In this sense, you are also an emotional person."

"Perhaps, but I still respect his choice at the time."

"Yes, it is more forgivable to leave for emotional reasons than for money and honor."

"It's a pity that sometimes, the negative effects of emotions far outweigh the positive effects."

As soon as the words fell, the dazzling sunlight made the eyes of the two of them white, and the sudden cheers made people temporarily lose their hearing. Fortunately, the two of them had long been accustomed to it, their steps did not stop, their chests straightened a little, the corners of their mouths were pursed, and they smiled, and they walked out side by side.

Wenger was half a head taller than Youmo, and he was dressed like an elegant scholar in a suit and leather shoes. The guy next to him is usually lazy and lazy, but now he is as straight as a soldier. Both of them have relatively rare figures, so they caused a lot of screams as soon as they appeared on the scene.

The old and the young have been out of the limelight this season, and even the two heroes of Alex Ferguson and Beckham can only bow to the wind.

This sparked a wave of jealousy to some extent, and in a large box in the stands, a group of men and women couldn't help but point their fingers.

Sui Dongliang, Li Jian, Li Tie, Li Jingyu, Fan Zhiyi, Sun Jihai, and Zhang Xiaorui, Yang Chen, Lu Wei, and Yao Xia, all ten of whom arrived this morning, arrived.

At this time, there were many people talking and chatting about everything, but as they spoke, the voices in the box began to become smaller, and an inexplicable atmosphere began to spread.

Because they saw 22 people side by side on the field, they inevitably made a comparison in their hearts and wanted to try their skills. Some guys who had more ideas also quietly counted the number of people, and after finding out that it was just right, they were quite excited.

Just then, someone's cell phone rang at an inopportune time.

Li Tie picked up the phone and hid in the corner amid a burst of ridicule, but within a few minutes, he walked into the crowd in shame and announced loudly: "Director Zhu has called, saying that we will see you at the Stade de France in a few days!" ”

And also.

"Lord Yan, who just became the head of the Football Association half a month ago, wants to come to talk to us!"

And also.

"Yuan Tou from the General Administration is also coming over, saying that he wants to find someone to settle accounts!" (To be continued.) )
