Chapter 410: Reaction from all sides!
'Arsenal v Tottenham's north London derby. Dear friends who surf the Internet, I am Fan Zhiyi, a guest reporter who watches football with Ah Fei. Hehe, I know you must be surprised to see me, oops, no way, I didn't get a ticket, so I had to sell myself to Phineas in exchange for tickets for this crucial battle.
Haha, anyway, the reporter you saw today is me. Well, without further ado, you can now see Tottenham's home stadium, White Hart Lane, right behind me. β
"North London is Tottenham!"
"Glory to White Hart Lane!"
"The time for Arsenal is over!"
βGloryοΌGloryοΌTottenham HotspurοΌβ
The sun is shining brightly and the sky is clear.
Fan Zhiyi, dressed in a red polo shirt, stood in front of the crowded White Hart Lane Stadium.
Behind him is a dense flow of people, standing in front of the camera holding the microphone, and the back is sometimes pushed by the overcrowded flow of people.
Listening to the Tottenham fans behind him waving flags and yelling all kinds of provocative words in their mouths, Fan Zhiyi looked at the camera and said with a smile: "I believe that I don't need to say anything more at this time, everyone should already be able to feel how exaggerated the enthusiasm of the local fans is for this north London derby."
But to be honest, I don't know whether to laugh or cry for Tottenham fans in this game.
Their opening stretch in the Premier League against Arsenal, the weakest team in recent years, had a good chance of making a comeback on their home turf.
But Tottenham fans are uncomfortable here, obviously they were old neighbors of the same level before, but now they can only pick up the leaks and do it.
This is mainly because since Mr. Arsene Wenger took charge of Arsenal in the 9697 season, the north London derby has actually existed in name only.
Arsenal won their first Premier League title in their history under Mr. Arsene Wenger in the 9798 season, followed by the second and third in the 0102 and 0304 seasons.
During this period, Tottenham were still struggling to find a place in Europe, and even fell to 14th in the league in the 0304 season, narrowly missing into the relegation zone.
And with the financial crisis of Arsenal in '04, I remember when I was in London and the Spurs fans were very excited to celebrate Arsenal's imminent demise.
But everyone knows what happened later, in 0405, this Arsenal fell from the sky.
Mr. Wenger took the winged Pampas eagle from the breezy Camp Nou to the thunder-clouded Highbury for a price of 20 million euros, which is now called a "robbery deal" by countless commentators.
The bigger the wind and waves, the higher the eagle flies!
Well, this passage was written by our copywriter.
My old fan can't say such hypocritical words, haha, okay, back to the topic.
Winning the Champions League twice in three years, Arsenal has already left Tottenham's old neighbor behind, but!
With the departures of Luka Modric and Hummels this summer, and the ageing of Thierry Henry, Arsenal are going through a turbulent period, while Tottenham Hotspur just finished fifth in the league last season, and the whole team is showing a relatively clear upward trend.
So, will Tottenham knock Arsenal down and regain the title of king of north London, or will the Arsenal tiger not fall?
It just so happened that we happened to meet a Chinese music king who came to London to watch the game today, so let's listen to his opinion. β
"Ouch, don't say anything about the king of heaven or the king of heaven, people are very shy. Haha, hello everyone, I'm Jay. β
As soon as the camera turned, in the exclamations of countless fans in front of the TV, Jay Chou, who was wearing a floral shirt and big pants and dressed in hip-hop, appeared in front of the camera with a camera gesture.
Fan Zhiyi said with a smile: "We didn't expect to meet Jay Lun here, I don't know if you can get an autograph or something for me?" A lot of kids in my family love to listen to your songs. β
"Of course there's no problem, a soldier like Uncle Fan who wins glory for the country roars, so naturally there are as many signatures as there are."
"Haha, Jay's personality is really interesting. Okay, let's get back to business. Oh, by the way, I don't know which team Jaylen is backing yet. β
Fan Zhiyi handed the microphone to Jay Chou, who smiled and picked up the red and white scarf around his neck: "Of course it's Arsenal, Mr. Chen Mo is my idol, a few years ago, he and Messi released the promotional song of the Tiandi Dou Sneakers together, all of which I wrote." β
"Well, it seems that we are in the same camp. Haha, then, what do you think of the next game? β
Fan Zhiyi smiled and handed the microphone to Jay Chou again, Jay Chou smiled and hooked his earlobe: "Actually, to be honest, I'm quite nervous."
I actually took the time to watch three games in England last year, but Arsenal lost all three games, so it feels like I'm always going to bring bad luck to Arsenal. β
"Hahaha, not no, not quite. What was the game that memorated you the most? β
"One of the most memorable for me. It must have been four months ago, when the Emirates Stadium played West Ham United in April, and Arsenal led by two goals in the first half, and then it may have been to prepare for the Champions League, and Henry was replaced.
"Oh, you said that game, I watched it too, Arsenal collapsed at the last moment, and they were chased three goals in a row in 20 minutes, right?"
Hearing Fan Zhiyi say that he had also watched the same game, Jay Chou was also interested: "Yes, yes, that's the game." Ouch, at that time, I really saw that the fries fell to the ground, and I was really stupid.
Therefore, Mr. Chen Mo is really important to this Arsenal team, he is not only strong personally, but he can also play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army on the field. As far as you can clearly feel that when he is not on the field, Arsenal is completely two teams in temperament? β
Indeed, Chen Mo is a typical leader-type player. He's on the pitch, not to mention the players, and we, the fans who watch the game, will feel very relieved. So, a little bit about your score prediction for this match? β
Fan Zhiyi showed a sneering expression on his face, handed the microphone over, and Jay Chou also smiled with a smile in his hands: "To be honest, although I am a fan of Mr. Chen Mo, before this game, I read news reports that Mr. Henry injured his calf muscles during training, and said that he would take a month off."
I think it's a very heavy blow to Arsenal's whole system, and the referee for this game is Atkinson.
This referee has always been known for his light enforcement, so I think it's one to one. β
"One-to-one, very conservative guess."
"The main thing is that it's hard to guess the score this time. Mr Henry retired injured, Arsenal flew with both wings before, Giroud made the wall in front, and Mr. Chen Mo's sudden play in the middle could not play.
With Arsene Wenger's aggressive tactical style, I have the feeling that he is likely to take the initiative to change in such a situation, given that Mr. Henry is also thirty-one years old. But if it is a new tactic, then the team needs a run-in period. β
"Tsk, it seems that Jay still has some research on football. Okay, the time is almost up, and then netizens will follow our camera into the White Hart Lane Stadium together. β
.
A sunny and breezy summer day.
The weather is very good, perfect for a warm nap, but at this time, the White Hart Lane course does not feel comfortable at all.
"Kill the ruined factory!"
"Bale kicks the starter?! Arsenal are empty! β
"Watch your ankles! Chen Mo! β
"A 30,000-seat stadium is also called a stadium?! Shabby White Hart Lane! β
'We have two Champions Leagues, what do you have?! I can't even qualify for Europe! β
"Chen Mo will completely destroy you!"
"Chen Mo?! What can he do?! Now he doesn't have Messi by his side and he doesn't have Henry! He's about to be revealed! β
"Fake, Squid!"
"Tsk tsk, the smell of gunpowder is really strong."
The whole stadium was filled with all kinds of shouting, and before the game even started, fans on both sides were already spraying each other wildly.
Countless fans waved their team's flags, and the stadium turned into a sea of red and white.
Feeling the scorching atmosphere, Tommy, the host of BBC Premier League football, wearing headphones and wearing headphones, was a little emotional.
Next to him, his partner Old Jack smiled: "Of course, after all, this is a north London derby, and this year's Arsenal is indeed much weaker than in previous years from the perspective of strength on paper." β
"Yes, Modric's departure has a very big impact on Arsenal, not to mention that Thierry Henry has also retired injured. I don't know how Mr. Wenger would have reacted to such a scene. β
"If you want me to say, I think Arsenal is likely to play more conservatively in this game, and it is even very likely to play directly on the counter-attack."
"That's right, the problem now is that the players are too young. Eighteen-year-old Bale, nineteen-year-old Angel Di Maria and 21-year-old Giroud have an average age of just over 19 years old! This is an exaggeration. β
"Being too young is one thing, but the real key is because of Luka Modric's departure and Thierry Henry's injury.
The premise of playing offensive football is that the ball is at the feet and the team must be able to control the ball.
Now Thierry Henry is unavailable, Bale is not delicate enough at his feet, and Arsenal is left with only Di Maria on the ball.
But with Thierry Henry's injury and Bale's lack of sharpness, Di Maria will be more closely targeted.
He is not hard enough, and he does not have Chen Mo's talent that is almost unique in history, and it is also difficult to hold the ball under high pressure.
Arsenal have few points to keep the ball up front.
This has a ripple effect.
The direct impact of the striker's inability to hold the ball is that his midfield will face stronger defensive pressure, but Modric is also gone.
I don't think Arsenal have a perfect replacement for Luka Modric in midfield, whether it's Flamini or newcomer Rakitic or Nasri or whatever, they don't have the ability to keep the ball in the Premier League consistently.
Therefore, in the end, all the pressure of possession will flow to Chen Mo.
It was like a sinking depression, and all the pressure would press on Chen Mo like a stream of water.
If he can control the ball, Arsenal's attacking football still has to be played, and if he can't control the ball, Arsenal can only play counter-attack.
However, what I can think of is that a professional team like Tottenham can also think of, so Tottenham will definitely play very savage in this game, they will definitely go crazy to strangle Chen Mo in the midfield, and even losing a red card will not make Chen Mo easy.
In that case, I think Arsenal might choose to surrender the ball and play on the counter-attack. β
Old Jack babbled, but he was right.
Tommy nodded, but raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Playing defensive counterattacks is indeed a good choice for Arsenal, after all, Bel Di Maria and Chen Mo have strong impact, and counterattacks are very lethal."
But. Arsenal's hallmark is attacking football, and Mr Arsene Wenger's logo is attacking football. So, I personally don't think they're going to go straight on the counter-attack in the opening stages. β
"Yes, so, it all depends on whether Chen Mo can withstand the pressure. To be honest, this is actually the first time he has led the team as an absolute single-core, and there are many people in the outside world who want to see his jokes. β
"That's right, but it's not just people who are ready to see the jokes, but there are also a lot of people who support Arsenal. That sideline shot just now, if I'm not mistaken, seems to be Miss Scarlett Johansson? β
"Haha, yes, she is a die-hard fan of Chen Mo. I heard that she announced on Mmc that she was willing to try her depth with Chen Mo, but so far Chen Mo has not responded. β
"Hahaha, it's interesting, I don't know if Chen Mo will kick more fighting spirit with such a big beauty. Well, now the players from both sides have entered the arena. Let's return the footage to the scene! β
.
"Does this woman really like me?"
As soon as he stepped on the turf of White Deer Lane, Chen Mo heard a crisp and sweet sound of cheering in his ears.
When I turned my head, it was Scarlett, who had the Arsenal logo on her face, cheering on the sidelines.
Chen Mo drew a few black lines on his forehead.
The widow sister is not only beautiful, but the key is also charming, otherwise a certain Hanhan would not say [Scarlett, I want to drink your bath water].
But Chen Mo was not interested.
In his heart, Klee is even sexier and more beautiful than the widow sister, and the snow mountain alone is two sizes bigger, and it can overflow when you pinch it with one hand.
What's more, the woman who wants to sleep with him Chen Mo can really line up all the way from London to the Dragon Kingdom now.
"Huh! What do you think! Concentrated! Concentrated! β
Shaking his head to shake off the distractions in his head, Chen Mo regained his attention to the court, and while sorting out the captain's armband, he walked towards the referee, ready to toss a coin.
And this scene was also shown by the cameras in front of all the fans around the world who were following the game.
The opening match of the Premier League is already very interesting, not to mention that this game is a north London derby.
What's more, the commentary is right, this is indeed Chen Mo's first single-core leadership in the absolute sense!
Not only Jay Chou, Fan Zhiyi, but also Sister Widow, these big names who like Chen Mo, came to the scene to cheer.
All the fans around the world who like Chen Mo and Arsenal, and even Ferguson, Mourinho, Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti, who are sitting in front of the TV watching the game at this time, are looking forward to this game!
But the coach and the fans are looking for a different direction.
Fans expect Arsenal to win, but coaches don't care if they win or lose!
They only want to know one thing - whether Chen Mo can bear it!
Especially Ferguson!
Sitting in front of the TV, looking at Chen Mo's face, he chewed gum quickly in his mouth!
Expectant and nervous!
This year is in his heart for Manchester United to be a year of results!
Although the outside media has been hyping Arsenal into a trough before the game, as an old rival who has been fighting with Wenger for ten years, he has always had a deep fear of Wenger!
And how can you tell if Arsenal is still a threat?
It's very simple, see if Chen Mo can bear it!
Be!
Chen Mo can't bear it, Arsenal can also play defensive counterattacks, but being able to play and being able to play to the top are two different things!
Arsene Wenger is not a coach who specializes in counter-attacking, and Chen Mo himself is not proficient in counter-attacking.
If Arsenal can't play the attacking football they are familiar with, but instead force a counter-attacking switch, it will be difficult for them to really threaten Manchester United in the end.
And whether Arsenal's offensive football can be played depends on whether Chen Mo can resist the pressure in the next 90 minutes!
Can they hold off Tottenham Hotspur means can Arsenal continue to play attacking football?
It sounds ridiculous, but it's just the way it is!
Tottenham didn't even qualify for Europe last season, but they finished fifth in the league.
Fifth in the Premier League, to be honest, really not weak.
What's more, Tottenham and Arsenal are mortal enemies, with the blessing of the home whistle, Tottenham will definitely play very savagely, and the referee is still Atkinson, who has a loose penalty scale!
The pressure Chen Mo is facing is definitely not inferior to any top team!
As long as Chen Mo resists the pressure, it means that Arsenal's offensive football can still be played, and at most it will be fine-tuned, so as not to completely lose direction and fall into the trough completely!
"Come on, let me see if Arsenal is good enough to be our opponent for Manchester United this year!"
Looking at Chen Mo, who had gone to the middle circle on the screen and was waiting to serve, the chewing gum in Ferguson's mouth became faster and faster!
