No. [063] back: Facing the old club Birmingham City

1-3, Arsenal lost away to Shakhtar Donetsk.

In this game, Dongfang Chen's table was very poor, except for another assist from Dongfang Chen at the last moment, his table was really nothing commendable.

Of course, the entire Arsenal team is not good, it is very bad, and the media reporters are not good at holding Dongfang Chen alone.

This game really made the players of the Arsenal team very unhappy, they really didn't expect to lose. And I lost 1 to 3, and I couldn't accept it.

After returning to London, the Arsenal players were also in a very bad mood.

However, the Arsenal players have to get rid of that stuff and they are about to face a new game.

At the weekend, Arsenal take on Birmingham City at their home stadium.

The Birmingham team is very familiar to Dongfang Chen, this is his former club. This is also Dongfang Chen's first time playing against the Birmingham team after leaving the Birmingham team.

This game was very noisy by the media reporters, after all, this is Dongfang Chen's old club against him, and this game is worth mentioning.

Birmingham had a very good run last season, having long been in the top four of the league and qualified for the Champions League, only to collapse at the last minute and miss out on the top four.

However, the results of the Birmingham team are still very impressive, and they are like a legend.

Birmingham City ushered in a new era by winning the League Cup and FA Cup double as promoted sidekicks.

Birmingham's performance last season was the envy of many teams. Everyone thought that the new season of the Birmingham team would climb to the top and continue to move forward and achieve better results.

However, at this time, the meritorious manager of the Birmingham team, Alex McLeish, chose to leave the Birmingham team and join the Liverpool team, and also took the team's two main players, Sturridge and Kevin Boateng.

The sudden occurrence of such a change in an emerging powerhouse has caught many people off guard. They really didn't expect the Birmingham team to be like this.

And that's not all, the Birmingham team even sent away their team's core captain Dongfang Chen, which in the eyes of many people is simply the rhythm of death.

Sure enough, after entering the new season, the Birmingham team seems to have lost the madness of last season, this season the Birmingham team's results have dropped sharply, and they are already fifteenth in the league, and they are very close to the relegation zone, which many people did not expect.

However, Birmingham City have a good run in the Carabao Cup and have progressed to the quarter-finals. However, in the UEFA Europa League match, Birmingham team XiΓ n was very bad and has been eliminated.

The results of the Birmingham team are indeed too different from last season, at this time, many Birmingham fans are naturally very unhappy, and they are crazy to curse Yang Jiacheng, Yang Jiacheng is indeed a little inside and outside is not a person.

Last season he was the greatest chairman in Birmingham club's history, but this season he has already been saddled with infamy.

Now, Arsenal are going to play Birmingham, and the feelings of Birmingham fans are very complicated.

At this time, Arsenal fans have been thinking about how much Dongfang Chen would be in the Birmingham team, and it would be impossible for them to hit the league championship and the UEFA Europa League this season. It's a pity that Dongfang Chen doesn't belong to them anymore.

Now that Arsenal are about to play Birmingham, the media reporters are immediately hyping up the game like crazy.

Dongfang Chen faces the old master in this game, will he kill the old master? If Arsenal win against Birmingham, there is a good chance that Birmingham will be pushed into the abyss of relegation.

Before the game, Dongfang Chen was interviewed by media reporters, and in an interview, he said: "I feel sorry for the Birmingham team, the strength of the Birmingham team should be very strong, and their results should not be like this." ”

Dongfang Chen also said: "Facing the Birmingham team again is already a matter of fact, but now their strength is also very good, but they have not been kneaded together, I believe that the Birmingham team's results this season will still be good." ”

Dongfang Chen also said: "Of course, in this game, I will definitely do my best, our Arsenal team also needs this victory very much, we will definitely go all out!" ”

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas said in an interview with the media: "Birmingham were amazing last season, but a lot of credit goes to East, and now East is in our Arsenal team, which is an honour for us and I believe it will be us who will win this game." ”

Arsenal manager ArsΓ¨ne Wenger said in an interview with the media: "Birmingham are very strong, they haven't fully shown their quality yet, and when they show their quality, everyone will be shocked. ”

ArsΓ¨ne Wenger added: "Of course, the win will be for our Arsenal team, and I'm very confident in that. ”

And the head coach of the Birmingham team, Hodgson, said in an interview with media reporters: "I admire Dongfang Chen very much, he is very powerful. It's a shame that when I came to Birmingham he was gone, which makes me feel sorry. ”

Hodgson added: "We've had a lot of departures this season, but we've had a lot of signings, and we're not bad at all, and I don't think we're going to be that bad. I'm confident about this game. ”

Birmingham South Korean player Lee Qinglong also gave an interview to the media, he said: "Dongfang Chen is very strong, he is one of the best Asian players I have ever seen, I was very happy to play with him last season, and now I am going to be an opponent, to be honest, I am a little worried." But we're ready and give it our all! ”

South Korean player Ji Chengyong of the Birmingham team also gave an interview to media reporters, he said: "Dongfang Chen is very strong, and he is also the player I admire the most. It was an honour to play with him last season. Now we're going to be opponents and I'm not worried because we're going to give it our all and we've got to win this game, we've got to win. ”

Dongfangchen's good friend, now the captain of the Birmingham team, Sebastian Larsson, also gave an interview to the media, he said: "East is a good friend of mine, always has been, and I am in constant contact with it now. To be honest, I'm envious of Easter, he was able to play for Arsenal, he made the right choice, Arsenal are really better than Birmingham. ”

Sebastian Larsson's expression was a little bitter when he said this, and to be honest, he has lost faith in the Birmingham team now, and he can't stay in the Birmingham team anymore.

The Birmingham side have now lost the drive and emotion of last season. And seeing that his friend and mentor have left Birmingham, Comrade Sebastian Larsson also wants to leave.

Sebastien Larsson immediately said: "This time against Arsenal, we will give it our all, I want to see how good East has to go." ”

On the day of the game, the Emirates Stadium of the Arsenal team was full of people, and today there were still a lot of Birmingham fans who came to the Emirates Stadium, they came here to cheer for the Birmingham team on the one hand, and to watch Dongfang Chen play.

Birmingham fans haven't seen Dongfang play for a long time and they still miss it so much, Dongfang Chen is the biggest goalscorer in the history of their club, even if this goalscorer has only played for them for two seasons.

Dongfang Chen is indeed the greatest goalscorer in Birmingham history, he not only brought two championship trophies to the Birmingham team, but also scored more than 100 goals for the Birmingham team in more than 80 games, and is the most goalscoring player in the history of Birmingham club, and is naturally the team's greatest goalscorer.

The Birmingham fans were furious at the thought that the team had sent away the team's greatest goalscorer very lightly, they now hated Yang Jiacheng to death, why did Yang Jiacheng send Dongfang Chen away so lightly in the first place?
