Chapter 421: Battle

"Teacher, I want to play in this game, please let me play." In the locker room, Xiang Hao took the initiative to ask for a fight, looking at Wenger expectantly.

"Hao, you know, we still have two games, the final."

Seeing Xiang Hao's strong desire to fight, Wenger had a headache and tried to persuade Xiang Hao.

He didn't understand, this was an inconsequential league, or an opponent like Stoke City, how Xiang Hao couldn't figure it out.

There are still two crucial finals waiting for us, so why do you have to play this game?

Once you get injured, it's more than worth the loss, and it's three games in seven days, and fitness will definitely be a problem.

The other players couldn't wait to play this game, and kept their physical energy in the last two games, and after a successful battle, he wanted to go up hard.

Wenger really couldn't understand it, and waved his hand, "Hao, don't force it, you still stay in Kearney to train, during this time, you are too distracted by too many things." ”

At the pre-match press conference, a large part of the reason why Wenger could not give an answer to whether Xiang Hao played or whether he started was also because of his disagreement with Xiang Hao.

Wenger was reluctant to let Xiang Hao play, and wanted to continue to rest him, but Xiang Hao was really eager to fight...

"But the teacher, blind training, can't reach the intensity of the game, continue to take turns to rest, I'm afraid that my state is likely not to be guaranteed."

Where could Xiang Hao succumb so easily, and hurriedly found a reason, with a straight face.

Wenger couldn't refute this reason, and was stunned, "This, aren't you training very well?" ”

The old man looked at Xiang Hao uncertainly, a little hesitant, and his confidence was a little shaken.

Indeed, during this time, because of Wenger's rotation, Xiang Hao didn't play much at all, and the off-field things were not as intense as before.

Now that Xiang Hao himself mentioned this, the old man was originally quite confident, but now he is not sure, and he began to worry about his actual game status. Although through training, I feel that Xiang Hao is in good shape.

'It was training, it's hard to say what it's going to be like when it comes to the game. I want to use this race to get my best shape and for the next two games, I want to be at my best from the start. ”

Xiang Hao felt more and more that the reason he said was correct, and he expounded it firmly, his eyes burning.

Arsene Wenger, on the other hand, was deep in thought, "You go back and prepare first." ”

waved his hand to let Xiang Hao leave, although he did not give Xiang Hao a clear answer, but Wenger was obviously moved by him, and the hesitant starting list seemed to be certain.

Xiang Hao saw that the old man was frowning, thinking about things, and it was not good to bother, so he went to train first.

It would be good to express his willingness to fight clearly, and he believed that the old man would consider his own ideas.

"This stinky boy is really head-headed, it looks like we have to change the game tactics."

Looking at the figure of Xiang Hao leaving, Wenger shook his head helplessly, he had no time to stay longer, and quickly left the locker room to find Rice and others to discuss tomorrow's game.

After all, before, Wenger didn't plan to let Xiang Hao play, and now, Xiang Hao wants to play, and some game details have to be considered.

Obviously, Xiang Hao's 'forcing the palace' interrupted Wenger's overall layout.

If it were at another time, another player, at this time, to give Wenger a problem, Wenger would not be so difficult.

But now that it's the end of the season, how can there be time for the players to slowly adjust their form, and now they have to make a decision now.

This is the moment when the bayonet is red, and this player is still Xiang Hao, at the most important moment at the end of the season, Wenger does not dare to ignore it easily, nor does he dare to take it for granted.

In these last two finals, the most important player in the Arsenal team is undoubtedly Xiang Hao.

Fabregas and Van Persie could have been able to say Fabregas and Van Persie before, but when it came to a game of this level in the final, their role was really not as good as Xiang Hao.

Xiang Hao's position determines the entire ceiling of Arsenal, and Xiang Hao's mental hardness is also something they can't reflect.

The reason why Wenger wants to let Xiang Hao rest in rotation is to ensure that Xiang Hao's current state is a full realm that can fight on the top.

Therefore, even if he was dissatisfied with the scandal at the end of the season, Wenger did not have the slightest idea of punishing Xiang Hao.

On the one hand, the old man really likes Xiang Hao, and on the other hand, Xiang Hao is really an indispensable existence in the Arsenal team, and he has carried the team until now, and Wenger must 'connive'.

The difference between Arsenal's last season and this season, Wenger has always seen it in his eyes and remembered it.

Last season, the lineup was so neat and such a good start, but because of an injury, the whole team lost all their heart at once.

And this season, Adebayor, Hleb and others left the team, Van Persie was injured and suspended, Rosicky was reimbursed for the season, and even Cesc Fabregas was injured for four months.

With such a lineup, Arsenal not only kept the top four, but also participated in the league championship for a time, only to lose the team because of a large-scale injury.

But even so, this season, for Arsenal, it has exceeded the goal, not only won the League Cup, but also reached the FA Cup and Champions League finals.

Such a result that absolutely no one could have imagined at the beginning of the season.

And this, Xiang Hao is definitely a great contribution, especially in the Champions League, it was his nine goals and five assists that brought the half-crippled Arsenal into the final.

Wenger can't help but love such a player, and he can't ignore his demands.

Since Xiang Hao wants to play and ensure his game status, Wenger can only meet his requirements, but this opponent, Stoke City, Sky City...

Rice looked at Wenger worriedly, quite cautious, "Arthur, I think it's better not to let Hao play." ”

Uncle Rice agrees with Xiang Hao's reason, but disagrees with Wenger for letting him play.

Very simply, in the last round of the league, the champion has been decided, and the top four, Arsenal has also been locked.

It was an inconsequential match, but the opponent was unusually tough.

The city in the sky is, to be said, the city of violence.

This season, both for fouls and cards, Stoke City is at the top of the list.

They are typical of England's traditional style of play, long passes, rushing, power confrontation is their forte, the team, all are tall and strong, tough style players, and the action on the field is quite rough.

Such an opponent and this style of play are what Arsenal hate the most.

Although Arsenal can easily get possession of the ball against such an opponent, you don't know when the opponent will give you such a foul.

Against a team like Arsenal that is not strong in technical flow and physical confrontation ability, their fouls are often rushed to the ball and rushed people.

Playing such a team, Arsenal up and down, in fact, are worried that their players will be injured.

It doesn't matter about the game, and Rice naturally doesn't recommend Wenger to send the main team. What's more, the position of Xiang Hao's midfield hub is too easy to target.

Wenger also understands this, but Xiang Hao's willingness to fight is so strong, and it is true that the rotation time is relatively long, Wenger can't refuse, and only says, "Look at the half time and then adjust." ”
