In the end, Arsenal's 4-3 home defeat to Manchester City became the focus of discussion in almost all the English media, European media, and Dragon Country media after the game.

Especially Ye Luo's record-breaking, which makes people talk about it.

The media in England is a bit of a mouthful.

Because this record does not belong to the English, or even to the British.

This upset some Englishmen.

But no matter how unhappy they are, they can only do this.

People all over the world are amazed by Yelo's wonderful performance.

And for Ye Luo.

Breaking the record was as ordinary as breathing, so he didn't care much about it.

He cares about the league title.

He understands how fierce the competition for the Premier League title is.

For Arsenal, beating Manchester City at home is a good thing.

Because they are five points ahead of Manchester City all at once.

And Manchester United's defeat of Chelsea is actually not a bad thing for Arsenal.

Because Chelsea are eight points behind Arsenal in one fell swoop!

It was all but a declaration that Chelsea were out of contention for the league title.

Other words.

After this round of the league.

Three echelons have also been formed between the championship groups.

Arsenal are top of the table with 65 points after 26 league games.

Manchester United are one point behind Arsenal and second in the league.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are four points behind Manchester United and five points behind Arsenal in third place with 60 points.

Chelsea are close with 57 points.

But it is clear that Chelsea are now unlikely to be in contention for the title.

They may be more likely to be a spoiler.

In a word.

Manchester United's defeat to Chelsea is not a bad thing for Arsenal.

Because in this way, the first echelon of the championship zone is left with the competition between Manchester United and Arsenal.

The decline in competitors is not a bad situation.

After this game.

The Arsenal squad were not basking in the joy of beating their title rivals.

Because they have to go to Turkey non-stop and usher in a Champions League match.

The quarterfinals of the Champions League are finally about to start in full swing.

Arsenal will play Turkish Super League giants Galatasaray in the quarter-finals.

This is for Arsenal, who have either drawn Bayern Munich or Barcelona in these seasons.

A team from Turkey was drawn as an opponent in the round of 16 of the Champions League.

It's an unprecedented amount of luck.

But in fact, this is also the help of the self-helper.

Who has allowed Arsenal to finish second in the group for most of the past few seasons?

And Arsenal's matches against Bayern and Barcelona have become gimmicks and embarrassments.

As a result, the odds of them drawing those two teams in the second place of the group are greatly improved - UEFA is also going to eat traffic.

It's just a bitter Arsenal, it's not a big deal.

Oh, Arsenal were really unlucky last season.

They managed to top their Champions League group in one season.

outcome

Bayern finished second in the group.

It also has something to do with Yelo - who let Bayern and Yelo be in a group with Malaga at the time.

And this season.

Barcelona topped the group, Bayern won the group, and Arsenal also topped the group.

You smoke it, no matter how you smoke it, you can't draw Barcelona or Bayern.

The curse of three years for Barcelona and five years for Bayern has finally been broken.

Many Arsenal fans are vaguely looking forward to Arsenal's final result in the Champions League this season.

Optimistic Arsenal fans believe they are guaranteed the quarter-finals this season, fight for the semi-finals, and try to win the title next season.

The pessimistic one thinks that the quarter-finals are very good - because the Champions League quarter-finals have been a difficult achievement for Arsenal in the past.

At all costs.

With the Champions League just around the corner.

As a result, the discussion of the Premier League has also dropped a bit.

Champions.

It's always the most exciting event for the fans.

And just as the whole Arsenal team was flying to Istanbul.

Arsenal's official website has issued a travel warning for Arsenal fans.

All Arsenal fans who go to the away stadium must not act alone, try to go out together, do not be alone or three or five people together, and must be safe for more than a dozen people!"

This travel warning is not unusual.

When traveling to some cities where the security conditions are not so good.

Many clubs issue similar travel warnings.

Fans who wish to cheer on their team away from home should be safe.

That's understandable, because clubs also need to be concerned about the safety of their fans.

But is Istanbul an unsafe city?

Not really.

After all, it's a well-known tourist city that welcomes millions of tourists every year – and it's not unsafe if you're just visiting the city.

But if you're a fan of a team.

And your team is coming to Istanbul to play.

The opponent is one of the two teams, Galatasaray or Besiktas.

Then you have to be very careful!

Because

Fans of Turkey.

It's quite, quite, pretty crazy.

It is said that Dortmund's Westphalen Stadium is the craziest and most enthusiastic stadium in Europe.

But their enthusiasm is in the atmosphere.

At the very least, it doesn't make the away fans and players feel some kind of insecurity, or even a threat to their lives.

And in Istanbul.

Extreme fans in Turkey are really going to beat up the away fans.

There have even been some unfortunate incidents before.

There are plenty of examples of England's misfortunes in Istanbul alone.

When Leeds United played Galatasaray in the Champions League, there was a tragic incident in which two Leeds United fans were stabbed to death in Turkey.

No one wants such a tragedy to see or happen.

That's why Arsenal FC issued such a warning.

In fact, for Arsenal FC, they would rather the fans of this game not go to Turkey, just watch TV at home.

anyway

Whether or not there are fans to support this game is actually the same.

Arsenal's strategy for this game will certainly be to keep the situation under control on the road.

It doesn't matter if you win or not, as long as you don't lose.

Everything, wait until you get back to your home turf to solve the problem.

After all, everyone knows how difficult it is to play away from home in Turkey.

But it's just a matter of fact.

A warning from Arsenal FC for the safety of Arsenal fans.

Interpreted by the Turkish media as "this is discrimination against Turkey"!

"Istanbul receives millions of foreign tourists every year, don't these British people know this? When did Istanbul become an "unsafe city"? ”

"It's discrimination! This prejudice is shared against us not just by the British, but by the entire European continent. They think our country is not safe, that we are a wild place! ”

"They always put a lot of inexplicable accusations on our heads, and the Europeans are so arrogant that they only think of themselves as a civilized world."

"They are discriminating against us! We must make them look good!! ”

"Beat Arsenal! Give those damned Britons a little color."

Under the enterprise-level understanding of the Turkish media.

The Arsenal club's official travel warning succeeded in making the Turks see it as a contempt for Turkey.

This fire.

All at once it was burning in Turkey.

As the Arsenal players boarded the plane and prepared to leave for Turkey.

Arsene Wenger also saw the reaction of the Turkish media.

See the fanning of the Turkish media.

Arsene Wenger was speechless to the extreme.

This game if the Turks instigated a confrontation between "Turkey and arrogant Europeans".

That would be a no-brainer for Arsenal.

He could even imagine.

If the main tone of the game is guided in this direction, what will Galatasaray's home stadium look like.

When the time comes, the Turkish Telecom Stadium will definitely turn into hell.

Even, the occurrence of some Arsenal fans being beaten in Istanbul is also a high probability thing.

But Arsene Wenger couldn't do anything about it.

That's the media.

They don't think about what they will do if they report it like this, what the consequences will be if they incite it like this.

They just want traffic.

The human blood steamed bun is refreshing.

Who cares if you flood so much?

As long as the newspaper sells well, the news is sensational enough, and the eye-catching enough, they can make money and make a good living.

As for the consequences?

And how many media people will care about this?

What? You say social responsibility.

Don't be funny.

Where do media people have that thing?

Even.

If the fire burns more and more.

Even a few people really died in Istanbul.

Then the media is even more excited.

They can take the opportunity to hype.

Then I reported from another angle.

In a word.

We are the fourth estate, and we never have to reflect on our own problems.

The truth is a thing that the media talks about every day.

But they never really take the truth to heart.

They only care. How to report, can cause a sensation!

Fanning the flames is their specialty, but how to put out fires?

I'm sorry.

It's none of our business

The most typical is not the Turkish media that makes Wenger angry.

Rather, it is the English tabloids, the ancestors of the modern media industry.

The Heathborough massacre shocked the world.

But The Sun, in order to attract attention, downgraded Liverpool fans to call thugs and murderers when there was any evidence.

And also created a lot of sensational rumors.

And as the truth emerges.

Has The Sun ever reflected?

They didn't even apologize.

In the Dragon Country.

There was once a young singer who died of illness.

In order to grab first-hand news, some reporters forcibly broke into the morgue to photograph the body of the deceased.

In order to pursue the timeliness and sensationalism of news.

The media industry is destined to drive out good money with bad money.

But on the contrary, no one can stop the power of this kind of public opinion.

Now in Turkey, the fire is already burning.

And there is a tendency to burn more and more.

Until now.

Wenger could only pray.

Pray all the best and fans try not to travel to Turkey.

Don't let anything unfortunate happen.

The days before the game.

Arsene Wenger even wanted to wear a cross on his chest so that he could pray whenever and wherever he wanted
