After the match against Sunderland, Arsenal are still at the top of the table with 12 points, two more than second-placed Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur in third place with nine points, and Manchester City and Manchester United in fourth and fifth place with seven points. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

What makes all Premier League teams uneasy is that this year's Arsenal is not only ferocious, but even more terrifying, so far, they still have clean sheets!

Such a strong defensive ability is definitely not what they want to see!

Therefore, no matter which team it is, they have begun to concentrate on studying the current Arsenal and studying the magical China that has changed Arsenal. Especially in China, how to contain him and limit his play is the focus of the research of the Premier League.

Just as they were delving into the elaborate tactics to contain China, Arsene Wenger represented Arsenal at UEFA for the draw for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League finals.

To Zhang Xu's surprise, Wenger did not bring Wilshere, who played in last season's European Champions Cup, but brought him over.

The draw ceremony was held at the Palace of Parliament at the Plaza de la Conprición de Monaco, the capital of Monaco.

When Zhang Xu and Wenger arrived in Monaco, it was already 4 p.m., and the draw ceremony was held at 5:45 p.m.

Since there was not enough time, Zhang Xu and Wenger rushed directly to the Palace of the Plaza de la Prince's Power in Monaco.

When they arrived at the council hall, the guests had already begun to enter one after another. Zhang Xu and Wenger didn't have time to prepare more, and they didn't even have time to solve the dinner, so they simply sorted out their clothes and entered the council hall directly in order.

At the door, Zhang Xu met many acquaintances along the way.

"Hi Zhang, wow, I'm so glad to see you here! You are, oh, Professor Wenger! Are you coming on behalf of Arsenal? Just as Zhang Xu was queuing up to enter, he heard a familiar voice behind him.

Zhang Xu looked back and saw that it was Messi!

"Hi Messi, hello!" Zhang Xu waved his hand at the other party, and after the other party approached, he hugged the other party and hammered it twice.

"Damn it, Zhang, you tap! Who can stand your strength? Do you want to get me to the hospital? Messi screamed, and then asked: "I didn't expect you to come to the European Champions Cup, I really don't want to run into you monster, I hope we Barcelona can have some good luck today!" ”

"Haha, what's wrong? We at Arsenal are even more afraid of meeting you Barcelona, your strength has been too strong in the past two years! We want to go a little further! Zhang Xu said frankly.

"Uh-huh, I love it! But how does it feel a little fake, will you be scared? Hell yes! Saying that, Messi seemed to think of something again: "Oh yes, Zhang, I heard that you have been mixing well at Arsenal recently, and we have heard the news of the killing in Spain!" ”

"Killing?" Zhang Xu was stunned: "It's really a rumor, we just won 9 games in a row!" ”

"Oh my God, 9 wins in a row! Are you still not satisfied? That's it? How much do you want? A hundred? Do you want to break a world record? Messi stroked his forehead with a pained look.

"Looks like 100 is not a lot!" Zhang Xu answered in passing.

"Well, there's really no common language with you and such a monster!" Messi rolled his eyes, completely speechless.

At this time, the sharp-eyed Zhang Xu saw another acquaintance: Ronaldo!

This time he took the initiative to say hello: "Hi Cristiano, here!" ”

"Haha! Zhang！ I was wondering if I could meet you here! I didn't expect to meet you so soon! Hey, Messi! Hello! After Ronaldo walked in, he saw Messi, he smiled and said hello briefly.

"Hi Cristiano! Hello! Messi also replied, then said hello to Zhang Xu, and went to find his head coach.

Ronaldo looked at Messi's figure in the distance and said: "Zhang, listen to Mesut Ozil, the first game he participated in won smoothly!" ”

"This kid leaks heavenly secrets all day long!" Zhang Xu shouted: "The opponent is the black cat Sunderland, and it is not worth being proud to defeat the other party!" It would be interesting to meet you Real Madrid. ”

"Hell! That would be very boring! I don't want to meet you pervert so soon! If you want to meet, I think it's better to meet in the finals! For Zhang Xu, Ronaldo does have a bit of a headache, such a player who has repeatedly created miracles, even if Real Madrid is strong, it is not easy to win the opponent smoothly, not to mention that it is very likely to be hit back by the opponent.

"Hehe, Ronaldo, if I kill all the way to the end, and you are killed halfway, what should I say?" Zhang Xu said with a strange smile.

"Uh-uh, Zhang, your assumption is not valid! We Real Madrid are invincible! Just wait and see! "Cristiano Ronaldo is confident.

Zhang Xule was happy, and suddenly said: "If you meet Barcelona, you can kill it?" ”

"Uh-uh, of course!" Ronaldo said stubbornly. For the current Barcelona, Ronaldo really doesn't dare to say that he can definitely win the other party. But in front of Zhang Xu, let's hold on to it first, so as not to make Zhang Xu, a kid, laugh.

Don't you know that his stiff expression has already fallen in Zhang Xu's eyes, which immediately caused Zhang Xu to burst into laughter.

"Okay, damn it, if you meet Barcelona, it's up to your luck!" Ronaldo finally admitted and said embarrassedly.

"Haha, okay, Cristiano, let's go, let's see how lucky our two teams are this season!" Zhang Xu hugged the other party and walked towards the entrance of the council hall.

Zhang Xu also saw a lot of acquaintances along the way, of course, he knew most of the others, and others knew him...... In fact, there are quite a few, but the two sides have not officially met, so they just smiled and nodded.

At the entrance, a red carpet was laid out, as if attending a film festival.

Zhang Xu followed Wenger closely, waved to the reporter at the entrance, and entered the council hall under the leadership of the etiquette guide.

When Zhang Xu and Wenger sat down in their seats, the entire hall was already full of seats.

This is a very sci-fi hall, the front is full of sci-fi flavor of two floors, the lower ring of the first floor is obviously the scene of the award draw, on the top of a row of arc LCD screens, at this time, is playing the highlights of the last season's European Champions Cup.

At six o'clock in the evening, a piece of music sounded, and two hosts came up from behind.

One is Pinto, the host of the American cable network, and the other is Melanie. After the two walked up, they directly announced the official start of the lottery ceremony.

Then the highlights from the previous season and some touching scenes from the final were played. Immediately afterwards, a short VR video was played, in the form of a visitor entering the 2012-2013 European Champions Cup Memorial Hall, showing the experience and past of last season's European Champions Cup in front of everyone.

Subsequently, the host invited Celtic legend Gary Vill to the stage, and the other party said that the European Champions Cup trophy was taken to the front.

Galliver will also be the guest of honour in today's draw, followed by two UEFA officials who have manipulated the fortunes of the UEFA Champions League giants for many years. Finally, another ambassador was invited, and that was the Portuguese, Figo.

Next, the secretary general of the European Company began to give a long and tirade introduction to the events of the European Champions Cup.

Then the teams that have finished in Pot 1 of this European Cup season have been announced: Manchester United, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Byron Munich, Chelsea, Porto, Benfica and Barcelona!

Immediately afterward, the draw ceremony officially began.

And to Zhang Xu and Wenger's surprise, the first team to draw was Arsenal! Then Figo drew Group F.

Then, the tense draw ceremony went on little by little, and soon, the teams that were placed in a group with Arsenal were drawn: Borussia Dortmund, Napoli and Marseille!

This should still be a good arrangement for Arsenal, except for Dortmund, who are slightly stronger, the other two teams are not very strong.

Real Madrid are in Group B, with Juventus, Barcelona in Group H, with AC Milan, Ajax and Celtic.

This grouping, in general, does not have a real group of death, if Arsenal does not have Zhang Xu to join, Arsenal's group is really a bit of a group of death, because Arsenal without Zhang Xu is a team of the same level as Marseille and Dortmund.

But now, with Zhang Xu, Arsenal's strength has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it is not difficult to qualify from the group, but the difficult thing is the later games, which teams will be met in the knockout round.

At the next award ceremony, the best player in Europe was not Messi or Ronaldo, but Ribery of Byron Munich.

And the best team for the 2012-2013 season is like this:

The formation is 4-3-3:

Goalkeeper: Willy Caballero (Málaga/Argentina)

Defenders: Ramos (Real Madrid/Spain), Santana (Borussia Dortmund/Germany), Subotic (Borussia Dortmund/Serbia), Dante (Bayern Munich/Brazil)

Midfielders: Arturo Vidal (Juventus/Chile), Thomas Müller (Bayern Munich/Germany), Arjen Robben (Bayern Munich/Netherlands)

Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid/Portugal), Messi (Barcelona/Argentina), Robert Lewandowski (Borussia Dortmund/Poland)

After all the ceremonies, the guests left the venue, and Messi and Ronaldo had some loss on their faces. Zhang Xu walked up to them, hugged them one by one, expressed his condolences, and said with a smile:

"Hey man, next time I'm going to get that damn best player in Europe back and get revenge on you!"

However, his words were laughed and scolded back by the other party!

"Get out! If you want to take it, I'll get it back myself! (To be continued.) )
