'There's no doubt it's Arsene Wenger's season. When Sir Alex Ferguson was interviewed by Sky TV, he said very seriously.

"I wish I could be younger so I could work with him, and it was a great experience."

'You can't control the game, but you can control the players, and he's a master in that.'

A few years after his retirement, Ferguson spoke about Arsene Wenger again, and he was still smiling. In that era when Manchester United and Arsenal competed for the Premier League, it was they who created the Premier League, so much so that even a high-profile coach like Mourinho sighed that he couldn't surpass them.

"We had a conversation after that and he was happy to be here to finish it all. He was in the midst of the war, but he was also the one who held out until the very end. I am honored for him. ”

But of course, whenever people talk about Arsene Wenger, they don't overlook one person.

“sun？ There's no doubt that he's a good player, and that's something the whole world knows. ”

"Youth, ability, talent. He has all the potential of top players. After saying that, Sir didn't forget to make a joke: "Why wasn't he born ten years earlier?" ”

In the 2008-2009 season, Manchester United won the Premier League again and their second treble in a row. Although the Champions League final was unfortunately lost, the position of the Premier League hegemon is still unshakable.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Tevez. Ferguson used the speed of the three men to blast the defences of the other teams, while the stiff backline conceded just 24 goals all season.

'I like a player like Sun, no one says nobody, he can play in any position and I'm delighted Arsene Wenger to bring him to the Premier League.

On the morning of June 4, the whole Arsenal team took a charter flight to Paris, France. It was a short trip and their second flight to France.

The first time was to fly to Morocco, a Champions League eighth.

Arsenal are also very marketable in France, and Frenchman Arsene Wenger's side are more sought after than other Premier League teams. Even more than the middle and lower teams in Ligue 1.

Arriving at the airport, the whole team got on the bus and went directly to the preset hotel.

It is a FIFA-mandated hotel, where you can get a direct view of the Eiffel Tower.

Arrived in France at noon, rested for a short time and started training in the afternoon. It's one less chance for Wenger to work with the team, so he's going to be serious every time.

At the end of the one-and-a-half-hour training session, the players walked back to the hotel on foot with their equipment and cups.

"Sun, come over here." Arsene Wenger exclaimed suddenly.

"What's wrong, Coach?" Not knowing what was going on, Sun Xiang hurriedly ran over.

"It's about tomorrow's game." Arsene Wenger said: "Tomorrow, you will continue to be captain. ”

"What did you say?"

It's not that he didn't hear it clearly, he just wanted to confirm it again, and this one was surprised.

From the FA Cup to the league, this span has been somewhat beyond his expectations, and the league has broken the record of the Premier League as captain and became the first person in history.

This time he captained the Champions League again, although the record no longer belonged to him, but this move undoubtedly established his status at Arsenal, an unattainable position.

"You'll be the captain the day after tomorrow, that's all." In Arsene Wenger's view, the decision was a simple and easy one.

On October 21, 2015, in the Champions League group stage, in Porto's 2-0 defeat of Israeli powerhouse Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Champions League game, two records belonging to Porto players were born, goalkeeper Casillas broke the Champions League record of zero goals conceded, and Ruben Neves at the age of 18 years and 221 days became the youngest captain in the history of the Champions League, breaking the record of Dutch player Van der Vaart.

In 2003, at the age of 20 years and 217 days, Van der Vaart captained Ajax to lead the team against AC Milan, and Neves immediately reduced that record by two years.

And now, obviously this record cannot be broken by Sun Xiang, but he will still set a record.

The youngest captain to appear in the Champions League final!

There is also the possibility of setting another record.

The youngest captain to lift the Big Ears Cup!

There is no doubt that Arsene Wenger pinned all his hopes on the armband, which will also be worn on the arm of the 19-year-old Sun Xiang. This is a historic moment for anyone.

And Sun Xiang himself, since he knew the news, until the start of the game, the whole person was in a state of excitement.

Such an important event, which can be called the Champions League final of the Club World Cup, can once again wear the captain's armband and become the focus of attention.

No one doesn't want to be the one in the limelight, provided you can handle any pressure. And in this regard, Sun Xiang is obviously doing a lot better than before.

Before the game, Wang Jing made a special phone call, and the two talked for a long time. Although Sun Xiang was still a little concerned about the previous things, this did not interfere with their relationship.

Wang Jing said that she would watch the whole game on TV, and her parents would also watch it, and her father also sent his blessings to his future son-in-law.

After that, many of Sun Xiang's friends called in turn, as if they had said yes.

From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., his phone never stopped.

"Don't these people need jet lag......

Perhaps they were worried about disturbing Sun Xiang's sleep, and they all chose to call in the early morning in China, which made Sun Xiang very moved.

The next morning, the team spent a free morning in the gym, then had lunch and recuperated before heading to the Parc des Princes, the stadium for the final.

The stadium, which can accommodate nearly 50,000 fans, is lit up at night, and the team's buses arrive at the stadium at the same time.

The game will start promptly at eight o'clock local time, with the remaining hour and a half being the team's own.

With the flashing lights, Sun Xiang stepped off the team bus.

He was at the back of the line, but he could also feel the atmosphere that was definitely different from what he had done before.

The temperature around naturally rises and people listen to songs, which is a way to decompress.

Mesut Ozil chewed gum to himself, Bellerin tossed his hair, and Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan punched each other. Everyone has their own way of reducing the burden.

Still, the tension on the eve of the war was on everyone, even if they were all smiling.

Walking into the locker room, the huge turret on the floor stands out. It was their crest, and the Arsenal logo was once again featured in the Champions League final.

The oval-shaped dressing room has no corners, which makes the players less nervous and the space more open.

"Everyone! Half an hour to change and then warm up! Get moving, boys! "The strength and conditioning coach is uplifting.

Before the decisive battle, everyone is nervous and excited, and the duel can also make the audience addicted.

Everyone is looking forward to this summit showdown like Mars hitting Earth. Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
