Chapter 271: Arrival in Monaco (Daily Transition)

Madrid. Spanish Football Federation Building. Bosque lay on his back in the boss's chair in the office, drowsy, his chubby hand gently caressing his big belly.

On the branch outside the window, two little blue magpies are making out. The afterglow of the setting sun spills over the mottled tabletop.

The life of the coach of the Spanish national team... So pleasant. With the sound of hurried footsteps.

Mignano walked into the office with a thick stack of papers. Suddenly stopped, and wanted to turn around and knock on the door... Bosque opened his eyes and waved his hand.

The Spanish assistant coach breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Boss, the Arsenal coaching staff sent back last week's report. ”

'Arsene Wenger didn't quite figure out how they beat Tottenham either... He didn't expect to create a mess in his pre-match deployment. ”

"At least the two teams were evenly matched on the pitch and Lee broke the balance."

"He's in good shape right now, and he's in good shape."

"Also, in last month's World Cup qualifiers, we didn't call up Lee, fans in various regions protested, and report letters filled mailboxes like snowflakes..."Bosque rubbed his face, adjusted his sitting position, and frowned: "Fans protest against the game against Array Chitenstein? ”

"Liechtenstein!"

"The total population is less than 40,000... countries. ”

"Why should an opponent of this level call up Lee, he is tired enough in the Premier League."

"Well, next week's international break, let's take Lee out for a spin! I haven't seen him in a long time! ”... Another Champions League matchday is quietly coming.

Li Kang and his Arsenal teammates took a flight to Monaco. Monaco has many nicknames: Pocket Country, Small Country with Postage Stamps, Rose on the Cliff.

Built in 1878, the Casino de Monte-Carlo is like an ornate palace that attracts Happy Bean players from all over Europe, but according to local law: gambling is not allowed in the country, only tourists are allowed to enter.

Who is the most famous person in this country? Grace Kelly. A touch of the heaviest tragic fairy tale of European royal families.

... Monaco does not have an international airport. The Arsenal crowd will need to land at Nice's Côte d'Azur airport before taking a bus to the stadium.

It's not a long way off. From the airport, it takes less than an hour to drive. Maguire happily pointed out the window.

"A city built on a cliff!"

"It's so beautiful!"

"There's a castle there! "You should now worry about how to defend against Mbappe and Lemar, their type of breaker, passing you is like crossing the road!" Maguire nodded seriously and said, "I'm not a starter. Cazorla pondered for a moment and added: "Don't forget Falcao, he has been in very good form lately. "When Falcao played for Atletico Madrid, he was the world's third-highest scorer under Melo.

"This Monaco's comprehensive attack force may be squeezed into the strongest tier in Europe."

"However, no matter how strong they are, they can't be stronger than the Universe Barcelona team back then! We have to win this one. Cech shook his fist and said loudly.

It did not have a morale-boosting effect. After all, among the people present, he was the only one who overturned the peak dream two and peak dream three Barcelona.

Li Kang wore headphones and drew a few circles on scratch paper. ... Louis II Stadium, located on the coast of the Fontvière region.

The capacity is only 20,000 people. But its location and alternative design make it one of the most attractive courses in Europe.

The land was reclaimed from the Mediterranean Sea by the Monegasque royal family in the early 80s. The Arsenal bus slowly drove into the ground and stopped.

Monaco fans lining the streets were thrilled when they saw Arsene Wenger through their car windows. Especially middle-aged and elderly people.

“Arsene!!”

“Arsene!!”

“Arsene!!” Arsene Wenger was in mixed moods and couldn't help but wave to the fans.

Morata wondered, "Why are they calling the name of the leader?" Koscielny explained: "The leader coached here for seven years as a young man, won the Ligue 1 title, won the French Cup, and produced a Georges Weah... Yes, and to build Monaco's youth system! ”

"Even the royal family thinks he's the history of the Monaco club."

"If we hadn't lost that European Cup Winners' Cup final, we wouldn't have left here." It's also interesting.

Arsene Wenger too

"King of Sanya". He is the only manager in history to lose the European Cup Winners' Cup, Europa League final and Champions League final.

Because the European Cup Winners' Cup has been discontinued... So this terrible record is rarely mentioned.

.... Arsene Wenger arrived at the pre-match press conference surrounded by a crowd of staff.

The French reporters gave the warmest applause, and the master of ceremonies hurriedly presented flowers. Monaco coach Jardin enthusiastically ran up to shake hands.

Where is there still a saber-rattling atmosphere. Arsene Wenger was not too deeply moved, because his breakup with Monaco was not so decent.

"Monsieur Arsène, is it a good memory to be back at the Stade Louis II again?" The Arsenal boss shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not very good, I smoked and drank at that time, and I would insult the players..."

The reporters did not snub the home coach. After pestering Arsene Wenger for a few minutes, he threw the question to the Monaco manager.

Jardim looked confident: "In the first two rounds of the Champions League group stage, Monaco did not show their real strength due to injuries. ”

'The players were in very good shape today and we will play Arsenal with our best!' ... Stadium Louis II.

Voices. The red banner with the crown on it was hunted by the sea breeze. Sunset. The stands on all sides seem to be covered with a golden veil.

“ctV5! ctV5! Good evening, audience friends! ”

"Now we are streaming live to you the third round of Group C of the 2016/17 Champions League group stage!"

"Monaco host Arsenal!"

"So far, both teams are in the top five in Europe in terms of goal efficiency this season!"

"There's no doubt it's going to be a head-to-head feast."

'The camera shows the Arsenal manager on the sidelines, and it's not the first time he's returned to the Côte d'Azur.

'A few years ago, it was Monaco who knocked Arsenal out of the tournament.

"Will Arsene Wenger be able to shame tonight? Let's wait and see! ”... The interior of the stadium resembles a palace.

Splendid. White sculptures and oil paintings can be seen everywhere. It's just that near the entrance of the stadium, the decoration is becoming more and more modern, and bright red has become the main color.

It was the first time that Li Kang had encountered a player tunnel who had to climb the ladder.

"Lee..."Mbappe greeted with a smile, and then looked ahead, still exuding a calm and restrained body that did not match his age.

The players on both sides were not very familiar with each other and did not say hello much. Only Falcao and Morata embraced.

After all, the two were sworn enemies in Madrid.
