329 New Bergkamp

While Newcastle United pressed hard, Arsenal shrank back and focused on attacking with fast attacks.

In the 82nd minute of the game, Shearer received a pass from a teammate and was cut off by Campbell, and Arsenal immediately instigated a fast attack.

Qin Xiong received the ball with his back in front of the penalty area, he did not stop the ball, and crossed the ball to the left side with one kick.

Like a whirlwind, Ashley Cole strides forward and kicks the ball ten meters away!

Because he has an open space in front of him, striding the ball helps with the burst of speed.

Ashley Cole saw Newcastle United's midfielders rushing to intercept them after half-time and immediately passed the ball straight ahead to Pire, who was running out of position.

Pire didn't stop the ball, and returned the ball diagonally with his back, and Qin Xiong, who rushed up after half the court, stopped the ball, took a step diagonally and sent a precise through ball.

When he has a relatively open space, Qin Xiong's passing threat skyrockets!

The pass shifted Arsenal's attack from the left to the right and tore through Newcastle United's defence.

Qin Xiong's pass rolled through the gap between the left-back and the left centre-back of Newcastle United's hasty return.

Ljungberg cut inside strongly, dribbled forward with his left foot, and he smashed into the penalty area, and it was a half-one!

When Taylor rushed diagonally, Ljungberg crossed the ball across the middle of the box with the arch of his right foot, Henry got in front of all the defenders, and also aimed at the angle with the arch of his foot and calmly pushed the ball into the Newcastle United goal!

Goalkeeper Given: There is nothing to be done!

"The ball is in again! Arsenal scored two goals in ten minutes and they sealed the win! It was a textbook break, and Arsenal's devastating break was too much for Newcastle United to resist! They played with a sharp attack on the left. And after attracting the attention of the opponent's defense. Qin Xiong decisively and accurately diverted the attack to the other side. Ljungberg is too comfortable for Henry's ball! We have to say that Arsenal have reached the pinnacle of fast attack, and they perfectly interpret the core concept of team football! ”

Thierry Henry waved to everyone after scoring a goal and now seems to like to call his team-mates to celebrate and show the world Arsenal's togetherness!

Arsene Wenger is completely relieved, 1:0 is not safe, 2:0 Although it is actually more unsafe from a psychological point of view, but now Arsenal's team psychology will not be a problem, they will not relax. Chelsea are like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, and no player will take them lightly or give away the victory they have in hand.

Qin Xiong, Thierry, Pire, and the three were replaced by Arsene Wenger.

This is only the second game of the New Year's Devil's schedule, and Arsene Wenger will have to admit that Arsenal's bench depth is a concern compared to a more versatile Chelsea, so he will be decisive in resting his main players when it comes to ensuring victory is in hand.

Arsenal ended up beating Newcastle United 2-0 at St James' Park. Got the second victory of the New Year's Devils schedule.

After the game, Arsene Wenger praised the team's cousin, as for Qin Xiong's goal. He said: "I was convinced before we brought him in that he was our new Bergkamp, now that he has adapted to the Premier League and is here to go out into the world, I have no doubt that he will be the favorite for the Ballon d'Or in a few years, and I am glad that many people from the outside world share my opinion, they used the European Golden Boy Award to prove that Qin Xiong definitely has the potential to become a superstar player, and I must emphasize that Qin Xiong's professionalism is exemplary, many young players of his age, if they are slightly famous, Then there will be a lot of troubles off the field, but Qin Xiong doesn't, he is focused on football, he understands what he has to give and sacrifice to become a great player, he is a dedicated player who deserves to be learned by all young players. ”

On the return bus, Qin Xiong and Henry sat together and chatted, they did not praise each other, but exchanged more tacit cooperation and discussed how to stimulate each other more.

Some habits are difficult to change, such as Henry's left-leaning movement, and Qin Xiong's better long-range shooting along the left side, which would have been a conflict two months ago, but now they are more patient to communicate and discuss how to bring out what they are best at.

Unlike the national team, which has a short training time every year, and almost no time for running-in and improvement, the team-mates of the club spend more time living and training together, so they have a better basis for cooperation in terms of cooperation.

The next day, Fleet Street released a battle report, first of all, complimenting Arsenal on the great achievement of 60 games unbeaten!

"Who the hell is going to stop Arsenal?!"

Secondly, for Qin Xiong's expression, the media unanimously praised him, after all, he is too hot now, and the goal at St. James' Park has become the most popular goal clip that has been repeatedly broadcast by major European TV media, just like the feat of the alien who scored 1VS5 in Longtan alone.

The Daily Mail, focusing on Qin Xiong, wrote: "We don't remember how many times Arsene Wenger said Arsenal had signed a new Bergkamp. But it wasn't until today that we were able to confirm that Arsenal did have a new Bergkamp! His name is Qin Xiong, so far this season in the league he is the league's assist king, leaving the second place with 4 assists, and he is also ranked 10th in the scorer list, even if he misses all the remaining games, we can say that Arsenal's reinforcements are worth it! With 10 million euros bringing such a dazzling number, Qin Xiong's contribution to the team's new unbeaten record and leading the Premier League table is beyond anyone's imagination.

The reason why Arsenal have been talking about signing a new Bergkamp in recent years is clear, Bergkamp is close to retirement.

Now the emergence of Qin Xiong has ensured Arsenal's long-term development in the future, but is Qin Xiong really the same type of player as Bergkamp?

No! Bergkamp is a master of football skills and has a big picture and organisational skills.

Qin Xiong's organizational ability and football skills have made him look very similar to Bergkamp, but if you look closely at his table in the game, his characteristics are different from Bergkamp, he is based on outstanding organizational skills, and takes into account delicate and flexible football skills, if we often see Bergkamp charging with amazing technical ability to stop, dribble, pass, and shoot, Then Qin Xiong will most of the time use steady, efficient and sharp passes to support the backbone of Arsenal's attack! ”

Qin Xiong has not only seen a significant increase in his commercial value recently, but also a significant increase in his player value.

On the eve of the opening of the winter transfer window, Italian giants Inter Milan publicly made an offer to Arsenal, hoping to bring in Qin Xiong for 20 million pounds!

Although Veron's loan to Inter Milan has improved, Inter Milan's record does not allow them to win the throne in Serie A, and Veron is on loan after all, and the future does not belong to Meazza.

This can be regarded as Inter Milan's perseverance to Qin Xiong, Moratti failed to sign Qin Xiong in the summer, and now seeing Qin Xiong have such a hot table at Arsenal, he loves to be eager to give a midfield talent to Meacharo.

Of course, Arsenal refused, Qin Xiong had only been in the club for less than half a year, how could they do such a deal?

Even though Inter Milan raised the offer to 25 million pounds, Arsenal still labeled Qin Xiong as "not for sale".

Freddie took the initiative to meet with the Arsenal hierarchy in the hope of securing a new contract for Qin Xiong.

To put it bluntly, he wants Arsenal to give Qin Xiong a raise!

Freddie and the lion opened his mouth and directly asked for a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds, which will set a new salary record for U21 players in the Premier League.

Arsenal also refused, with Freddie relenting for £60,000 a week.

Vice Chairman Dane came forward to have dinner with Freddie and discussed Qin Xiong's contract issue in detail.

Arsenal said that they hope to wait until the summer of 2005 to negotiate Qin Xiong's contract, and it is not Arsenal's working practice to renew the contract of a player whose contract period is still very safe in the middle of the season, after all, the player who is in front of Arsenal and the most priority to negotiate the renewal is certainly not Qin Xiong.

Freddie and Dane maintained a friendly relationship though though.

But apparently this negotiation collapsed! (To be continued......)
