Chapter 65: Verbal War

"Allardyce, can you talk to us about Hao? What did you say before the game as a gift for Hao? Can you tell us? ”

At the post-match press conference between Arsenal and Bolton, before Allardyce could sit down, the Daily Star reporter immediately slipped the microphone in front of Allardyce, ignoring Allardyce's dark face.

The three questions immediately drove Allardyce to a dead end, and all the reporters held back a smile and watched how this Uncle Sam answered.

You must know that he was quite arrogant before the game, and he was quite arrogant about Xiang Hao's young age, and he looked down on Xiang Hao in his tone, and put on a posture of wanting to 'educate and educate' Xiang Hao.

Now that his team has lost, although Xiang Hao still has no goals and assists in this game, no one present is a fool, and everyone sees how Xiang Hao performs on the field.

141 shots, 91 per cent pass completion rate, six dribbles, eight aerial duels and nine domineering tackles.

It can be said that a large part of the credit for Bolton's failure to take the pressing to the extreme and drag Arsenal into their familiar hand-to-hand combat to take advantage of this game is to be attributed to Xiang Hao.

It was his toughness in the midfield like a bully that did not let Bolton's gang of giants wantonly 'trample' Arsenal's 'lifeline', and Optimus Prime's attack and defense were held up.

It's really because of his waist that Arsenal's midfield can play to the fullest without too many concerns.

As long as it is not deliberately suppressed, no one can ignore Xiang Hao's contribution in this game.

Old Sam has been immersed in football for nearly 40 years, and he has been a coach for 20 years, so how can he not see Xiang Hao's role in this game.

It can be said that the reason why Arsenal was able to play so well at the beginning was the appearance of Xiang Hao, a miracle soldier, which could not be said to have greatly improved the overall level of Arsenal, at least to balance Arsenal's three lines, so as not to let the imbalance and move forward steadily.

Allardyce never thought that such a young player would have such great potential, and he would be so mature, and his psychology had already been impressed by Xiang Hao.

But it is precisely like this, so that Allardyce can't open his mouth to praise Yu Hao, and it is uncomfortable for anyone to let himself slap his face, especially since this damn reporter deliberately mentioned what kind of 'gift' he gave him, if he beat himself, his face hurts, and his hands are pierced.

So Allardyce had a calm face, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the Star's reporter's words, and waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, this young man is good." ”

After two sentences, he immediately changed the subject and said casually: "I think we didn't create some chances in this game, my players have never been able to play in their own way, maybe that's a reason, as I said, our style of play is also a technical word, obviously we didn't play well today, unfortunately, there are some factors that restrict us. ”

At his words, not only Wenger rolled his eyes when he heard this, but even the reporters present couldn't help but give Allardyce a finger and a middle finger.

It's just outrageous.

Everyone in the room was a human being, and who couldn't tell that Allardyce was complaining that Clattenburg didn't create a good kicking environment for his players.

That's it, you're still technical, you haven't played your own style yet, haven't played well?

If you really play out of style and play well, others won't be able to live.

In the first twenty minutes, how Bolton's players were in Xianghao, they saw it clearly, and they couldn't help but shake their heads secretly, feeling that Old Sam was a little inauthentic this time.

And Wenger even sank his face and glanced at Allardyce with extreme displeasure.

However, Wenger did not have a seizure at this time, after all, the other party did not point it out directly, and it was difficult for him to say it.

Arsene Wenger is wise in the end, you don't say that the man came out, I'll say.

'I always thought the referee's job was a very difficult thing to do, but I think Mr. Clattenburg did a good job today, although in the first 20 minutes there were some regrets, but he was smart and always made the right decisions.

The game was always under his control, it went smoothly, he did it well, both sides played at a normal level, my players didn't get hurt, we won the game, I'm happy with his decision. ”

Didn't you say the referee, I will never let you say it, this time it will be up to you to defend yourself.

After saying that, Wenger glanced at Allardyce with a flat gaze and ended his interjection.

And Allardyce heard Wenger's interjection, his face suddenly turned red, but he couldn't have a seizure, Wenger poked him in the waist this time.

He wanted to use Clattenburg's penalty scale to defend himself, but he couldn't say it clearly, after all, he knew what his players did on the field, so he could only have vague and implicit words to guide, so that these media couldn't catch any tricks on him, and the referee committee couldn't say anything about himself.

But Wenger directly used words of praise to bring out Clattenburg, and no matter how vague and subtle he was, it would be very ridiculous, and if he defended himself, he might be ridiculed by others, not only losing, but also losing.

The expression on Allardyce's face was as ugly as eating a fly, but after all, Allardyce had been in this circle for so many years, so how could this little embarrassment stump him.

'Arsenal are really strong, they did not perform today the same as before, I think they have improved, I have to admit it.

And Arsenal's position in the table now speaks for itself, they are the top team at the moment, a good position, and as long as they maintain this level, I think the title will be theirs. ”

It is better to find a step for yourself, just get off the donkey, and give up some face, than to be completely slapped in the face, and at the same time, he did not forget to bring a disaster, Allardyce's compliment transferred all the firepower to his opponent today, Arsene Wenger.

Sure enough, when I heard that Allardyce took the initiative to retreat, these reporters did not chase and fight, and there are bigger bosses waiting for their interviews.

"Coach Arsene Wenger, what are your goals for the new season?"

'Which team do you think is the biggest threat to Arsenal? Manchester United or Chelsea? ”

"Coach Arsene Wenger, what do you think needs to be done to win the title now?"

As soon as Allardyce finished speaking, almost all the reporters put the microphone in front of Wenger, and every reporter asked a word related to "winning the championship".

Indeed, Arsenal has not won a title for three years, which makes these journalists who are used to watching Arsenal and Manchester United sing about the early days of the Premier League in the first eight years are somewhat unaccustomed.

Especially last year, people thought that Arsenal would be able to come back from a counterattack, but who knew that what was waiting for was a big rout, which made this unaccustomed to it a little anxious.

Now that Arsenal are off to such a good start to the season, and Chelsea's real bitter 'madman' with Arsene Wenger has left the Premier League, they wonder if Arsenal should be able to get back on their feet.

So they all can't wait to ask Wenger about Arsenal's championship.

Wenger hates Uncle Sam like crazy, constantly shameless, and so yin. Wenger couldn't help but give this 'villain' a blank look.

'Hmph, who let you win me, don't make you uncomfortable, how can I breathe like this. ’

Allardyce couldn't help but snort when he saw Wenger's eyes, deliberately raised his head, didn't look at Wenger, didn't care about himself, and hung it high.

He hung high, Wenger didn't dare, only five rounds of the new season, Arsenal shouted to win the championship, this is not a shot to the first bird.

I definitely thought so, but it was clear that the time had not come.

Arsene Wenger naturally shook his head slightly, "It's too early to say that we won the championship, the league is not even more than one in seven, there is no point in talking about this, now the most important thing for us is to play every game well, this is what we have to focus on."

I'm glad that we don't have a team above us now, but it also puts us more dangerous because somebody can pull us down at any time, and when you think about it, you think it's scary, I don't want to go through what it should be like last season, it's all about getting every step and playing every game.

Speaking of titles, I think Old Trafford is a good place to be and they will be more willing to talk about it than we are, but we do our best and we will not let us down, just like this game. ”

Wenger kept a low-key character, of course, Wenger still did not forget, and also played a game of trouble, and ended the topic by yin his old opponent.

However, Wenger's side has just settled, and another question has come up, "Coach Wenger, what do you think of Hao's performance in this game?" The triangular-eyed reporter from The Sun immediately stood up and asked.

'Well, I'm not dissatisfied, the team got the win thanks to his efforts and the rest of the team, I don't think I can say anything more, they cooperated, they worked together, they fought together, that's what I wanted to see.'

Arsene Wenger resolutely strangled all possible problems.

"So, Coach Wenger, how did you see Hao's regression, although Hao did a good job defensively in this game, but in attack, he once again contributed to the performance of duck eggs, aren't you going to say something?" Triangle Eyes asked relentlessly.

"Huh, step back? I really can't understand what you mean, I can tell you that every win of the team is inseparable from the help of Hao, his defense and his resilience make us look safer and effective, don't you notice that our offense is attacking Hao's feet a lot of the time.

Data doesn't tell the whole story, just as you can never quantify the amount of time a chef spends in the kitchen helping the cuisine, a split second is not all, anything leaves its source and it becomes pointless to study it, you know, sir. ”

Wenger couldn't hear that this triangular eye was stirring up trouble, and after some targeted emphasis, Wenger's words had become preachy, and even his tone had become serious, and his gaze was like a blade only forcing this reporter from the Sun.

He was forced by Wenger's almost warning gaze to not dare to look at him, but he was still unwilling, and immediately turned back to Allardyce, "Mr. Sam, may I ask if Hao defeated you in this game?" ”

"Oh my God, how is it possible, Hao is just a good-looking player, and he is not the one who scores."

Allardyce subconsciously called.

"Hao, another boring weekend" - The Sun
