Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Best Shooter, Who Else Is I!

Just looking at the results, Arsenal's start to the season has been ridiculously good.

The UEFA Super Cup won the UEFA Super Cup against old rivals Chelsea; In the Champions League, two wins and one loss in three games temporarily ranked second in the group, and there is no problem in qualifying; The Premier League has 8 wins and 1 draw, and it is the first in the standings.

But looking at the price paid, Wenger couldn't laugh at all.

Wilshere is yet to return since picking up an injury in the north London derby;

Lin Yun was seriously injured and missed a full ten games, and Arsenal's goals directly dropped by more than two-thirds;

Walcott was stretchered out in the eighth round of the league and who knows when heals;

Flamini limped off the pitch in the Carabao Cup tie with Chelsea and is expected to return in around three weeks;

Arteta, on the other hand, was red in the ninth round of the league against Crystal Palace and was banned at a crucial moment......

Of course, the good news is not without it.

Modric is great value for money, plug and play is amazing, Giroud also performed bravely, carrying the banner of the front line in the absence of Lin Yun, and has scored 9 goals this season, including 5 in the league, and his form is quite wow.

The most important thing is, of course, that Lin Yun, a stinky boy, finally came out of the injury and showed a very good training state.

Arsene Wenger threw him straight into the starting line-up against Liverpool.

'Arsenal have four big opponents in just 13 days: Chelsea, Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United.

In the Carabao Cup match against Chelsea, Arsenal were not only kept clean sheets, but also scored two goals and were unfortunately eliminated.

Today's game against Liverpool is a crucial battle in the league, as the two are currently separated by just five points at the top of the table: Arsenal have eight wins and one draw, while Liverpool have six wins, two draws and one defeat. ”

A change of manager is like a change of knife, and this season Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea have changed managers at the same time, but they have achieved different results.

Manchester United is the opposite of the textbook, after 9 rounds, 4 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, only 14 points; Manchester City is slightly better than the city's rivals, with 5 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, accumulating 16 points.

The success story is Chelsea, where Jose Mourinho and Abou's second marriage gave the Blues six wins, two draws and one defeat to start the season with 20 points, just five points less than Arsenal and second in the table ahead of Liverpool on goal difference.

So this game is not only the KOP hoping that the team can beat Arsenal, but Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are also hoping that the Reds can stop Arsenal from moving forward.

"In the 42 Premier League games between the two sides, Liverpool have the upper hand with 15 wins, 14 draws and 13 defeats, but in the last 12 league matches, Arsenal have won 4, drawn 7 and lost 1......"

Sturridge has scored 10 goals for Liverpool on all fronts, eight of them in the league, and is currently second in the Premier League's scorers' charts.

Suarez has been in great form since returning from the sixth round of the Premier League, and has now scored six league goals, and is one of Lin Yun's main contenders in the scorer charts. ”

Like Suarez, Lin Yun has only played 4 league games, but he has already scored 9 goals, both in terms of goals and goal percentage, which is higher than the opponent's, but this does not mean anything, after all, for them, the battle for the top scorer has only just begun......

"Main quest five: King of the Premier League."

"Mission description: Lead Arsenal to the 2013-2014 Premier League title as the league's top scorer."

"Mission difficulty: 4 and a half stars."

"Reward: Trait (Unique)*1."

Unlike challenge quests, which only reward things like "super subs" and "spiritual leaders", the main quests reward dry goods.

In addition to the "heartthrob", what you get from the main quest at present are things that can really improve your strength.

The main quest is to get a professional contract and reward Becky's heartthrob;

The second main task, the strongest debut in the history of the Champions League, rewarded Van Persie's beautiful volley;

The third main task, winning the Champions League, rewarded Mbappe's galloping;

The fourth main task, the hat-trick of the national team's debut, rewarded Baggio's natural ball sense.

The current difficulty of the main quest five is not low, and it stands to reason that the rewards should not be much worse.

In the player's tunnel, Lin Yun was thinking about the task, a little distracted, and he didn't notice that Suarez had been staring at him, but the little caddie who was in charge of entering the field with him seemed to feel something, turned his head to look, and was directly startled by Su Ya.

The shadow of the famous tree, although Lin Yun is famous for eating raw on the court, but off the field, he is actually a gentle and humble five good young man, but Su Ya is famous, and a look can make the little pot friends shudder.

The little guy dodged behind Lin Yun in fear, and finally let Lin Yun come back to his senses.

He lowered his head and smiled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The little guy pointed at Suarez.

Lin Yun turned his head to look, and Suarez immediately smiled at him, revealing a mouth full of famous white teeth.

He also smiled and nodded, and took the initiative to say, "Hello." ”

Suarez just scored a hat-trick against West Bromwich Albion in the last round, and the three goals were all wonderful, covering the top three of the best goals in the Premier League in the last round, which only Bergkamp has ever done, so Lin Yun has to be convinced.

"Hello."

Su Ya said and took the initiative to come over, but what he talked about was a topic that Lin Yun didn't expect at all.

"Why are you still wearing the number 11 shirt?"

Lin Yun looked down at his jersey, shook his head, and said, "I promised Wenger to make No. 11 a great number." ”

"That guy has succeeded, wearing the number 11 to lead Arsenal to the Big Ears Cup has made the number legendary enough, you should wear the number 9 now."

"I'll think about it," Lin said, "Actually, my shirt for the national team has been changed to No. 9, and next season for the club should be changed." ”

Lin Yun missed not only the club's 10 games this time, but also the last two world preliminaries of the national team, but fortunately, Lu Xiaopang did not drop the chain and retained the first place in the group, and England has successfully qualified for the finals of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Hodgson announced the list of members of the national team the day before yesterday, and Lin Yun was naturally successfully selected, and the number has changed from the mediocre No. 22 to the No. 9 representing the center forward.

Su Ya nodded, "Yes, this is the striker's number." ”

The two chatted casually under the frightened eyes of the caddy.

The referee in front looked at the time and signaled for the players to get ready to enter the field, and then they bumped fists, said "come on" to each other and ended the exchange.

From this moment until the end of the game, it is an opponent who will not die.

“…… Players from both sides entered the pitch...... Liverpool kick off first...... Let's take a look at the starting line-ups for both sides. ”

"Arsenal, playing at home, have a two-striker formation.

Goalkeepers: 1 - Szczesny;

Defenders: 3 - Sagna, 4 - Mertesacker, 6 - Koscielny, 28 - Gibbs;

Midfielders: 7-Rosicky, 16-Ramsey, 20-Modric, 19-Cazorla;

Forwards: 12-Giroud, 11-Lin Yun. ”

'Liverpool played 3-5-2.

Goalkeepers: 22-Mignole;

Defender: 4-Colo. Toure, 37-Skrtel, 17-Sako;

Midfielders: 38 - Flanagant, 21 - Lucas, 8 - Gerrard, 20 - Sissoko, 10 - Coutinho;

Forwards: 15 - Sturridge, 7 - Suarez. ”

"Lin Yun has 9 goals, Giroud has 5 goals, and the two have scored a total of 14 Premier League goals, while Suarez has 6 goals and Sturridge has 8 goals, which adds up to exactly the same number of league goals as Arsenal's forward combination, so this game will be a contest between the two most efficient groups of strikers in the entire Premier League at the moment."

Lin Yun has been holding back for more than a month, he has long been hungry and thirsty, Suarez is even worse, he has been banned for half a season, and the few games he has just come back to these games are not enough for him to vent, and the two showed a very strong desire to score at the beginning.

In less than 1 minute of the opening game, Modric pulled the ball in the middle and turned + croquettes to break through two defenders, and then found Lin Yun in the penalty area with a trademark outside instep pass.

Lin Yun carried Skrtel to complete a volley, but unfortunately it was a little higher.

Two minutes later, Gerrard returned a powerful long-range shot from near the top of the box, but unfortunately it was just as unlucky, hitting the crossbar and Suarez was smart enough to rush up to make up the shot, but Mertesacker narrowly blocked the line.

Zhan Jun is recognized as a Reds fan, but at this moment he can only try to explain from a neutral point of view: "In just three minutes, both sides completed three shots on goal, and each one was quite threatening, it was just a little bit of luck, but relatively speaking, it was Gerrard's long-range shot that was the most regrettable, as long as it was a centimeter down, Liverpool could get a dream start on the road." ”

Gerrard whipped in a corner and Mertesacker headed in front of Sturridge.

The ball was passed to the wing and Cazorla dribbled at high speed but broke through Colo in the penalty area. Toure was tripped and fell to the ground by the opponent, and the referee decisively blew for a foul.

Arsenal took their first free-kick since the opening kick-off and were in a pretty good position.

Cazorla takes the penalty.

He now has a premonition that his set-piece dominance is unstable and that he could be snatched by Modric at any time, so he takes any direct free-kick opportunity very seriously.

Cazorla stood in front of the football for a long time, adjusting the angle, and observing the position of the human wall, which made everyone impatient before kicking it, but the football hit the human wall......

It was Liverpool's turn to counter-attack quickly, Sissoko crossed to Coutinho, who hit the ball quickly and quickly, but Szczesny was very focused and fell to the ground to save the ball.

"The pace of the game is too fast!

In just a few minutes of the opening game, the two sides had already formed a number of goals, and the atmosphere was tense from the first second of the game!

Such a game may be exciting, but it is a major test of the players' physical strength, and a mistake can easily be counterattacked by the opponent, and the metronomes of both sides should step up and control it. ”

'The midfielders on both sides were lively, but there were also some players with high expectations who were a little dull, such as Olivier Giroud and Sturridge.

In the absence of Lin Yun and Suarez, they took on the goal goals of the Gunners and the Reds respectively, and both did quite well, and now in the presence of Lin Yun and Suarez, they should also step up and prove themselves with better performances.

The vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of the hero!

Whoever can make a horizontal knife immediately depends on the present day! ”

After an initial frenzied exchange of frenzy, the offensive on both sides finally began to slow down, and the battle was mainly concentrated in the midfield.

Steven Gerrard and Luka Modric have shown the style of world-class midfielders, with their extensive movements revitalizing their respective teams' attacks and making both strikers more active.

In the 12th minute, Modric dribbled the ball in the middle of the field and once again delicately escaped the defense, once again causing a burst of cheers from the home fans.

The Croatian has quickly conquered all Arsenal fans as if he were magical, and has become an indispensable part of the Arsenal squad.

'Luka Modric has definitely been the most successful signing in the entire Premier League this summer, with the Croatian already providing ten assists and a goal in just a dozen games for Arsenal.

Fans affectionately call him the Magic Flute, because Mozart has an opera called "The Magic Flute", which is considered the most outstanding work by Beethoven, and Modric has a graceful style and superb skills on the court, so many fans also call him "Mozart on the court", plus "Modric" and "The Magic Flute" have similar pronunciations, so it has such a nickname. ”

Unlike many dribbling freaks who can't get the ball out when they reach their feet, Modric almost never sticks to the ball and immediately distributes it to the wings when he gets rid of it.

Ramsey sprinted up and ran wildly with the ball.

If Modric + Lin Yun is the most anticipated star combination, then Ramsey + Giroud is Arsenal's biggest discovery this season.

The duo, who were criticised last season, have exploded this season, and the number of passes between the two is one of the big reasons why the Gunners are now leading the table.

Ramsey glanced up at Giroud's position and lifted his foot to sweep the ball away.

Lucas immediately stretched out his foot to block, but Ramsey suddenly pulled the ball lightly, changed the pass to a burst, and completely got rid of Lucas before he firmly plugged the ball into the small penalty area.

Giroud was quite tacit in his movements, but was distracted by Sako's sidelines and couldn't catch up, watching the ball roll in front of him.

Just when everyone thought that the ball was going to be gone, a figure suddenly appeared like a ghost in the direction of the football.

Lin Yun!

“…… Aaron Ramsey went straight and Giroud was slow...... Lin Yun?! ”

The ball went past Giroud and rolled towards the right side of the goal, where Lin Yun flanked him from behind, ready to shoot at the ball.

He was quick, but Liverpool goalkeeper Mignole was not slow to react, abandoning the goal almost at the same time and rushing towards the football.

Lin Yun looked at his face rushing towards the soles of his feet, reluctantly retracted his feet, and jumped over him gently.

If he continues to shoot in a sprint stance, he will at most get tripped and roll over Mignole, but Mignole's face is not needed.

As for football, it is possible that he will be stabbed under Mignole by himself, or he may be held in his arms by the opponent first, who knows.

Cech, who was watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, couldn't help but touch his face.

If it was Lin Yun who met him that day, why did he become a masked man......

Lineker, known as the gentleman of greenery, recognized Lin Yun's behavior, "Mignole was very brave, almost desperately saved the ball from the danger of being kicked into a concussion, Lin gave up a chance to score, but it may have saved a goalkeeper's career, maybe even a life......"

Mignole quickly got up and threw the ball to Colo. Toure, and then clenched his fist and touched Lin Yun, and the audience on the sidelines also applauded the two, and the originally tense atmosphere had such a lost harmony, but as the Liverpool offensive unfolded, the atmosphere on the scene became tense again.

Kolo. Toure dribbled across the halfway line and sent the ball into the Arsenal penalty area with a long ball.

Sturridge finally touched the ball for the first time, but unfortunately it was only a barely rubbing of his forehead and it was easily confiscated by Szczesny.

When it was Arsenal's turn to attack, Szczesny did not pass the ball directly to the midfield, but threw it to Ramsey, but unfortunately the Grim Reaper made a mistake this time, and in the process of protecting the ball, Sissoko stabbed the ball out, and the football came to the feet of Suarez.

Suarez immediately dribbled straight into the Arsenal penalty area.

Modric stepped forward to steal, but Su Ya nimbly flashed, Sania saw that he was about to step on the penalty line, and hurried a logging steal to put Su Yalian to the ground.

The whistle blew and Suarez jumped up as if he had been electrocuted.

Saña thought he was going to rush over and show his teeth, so he took a step back in fright, but he didn't expect Suya to suddenly press the ball at his feet, and then quickly kicked it out.

Sturridge received the ball from the left and crossed quickly, and Coutinho met the ball and fired home with ease.

Before he could celebrate, the whistle suddenly sounded.

Coutinho was inexplicable, looking at Mertesacker in front of him on the left and then at the referee.

It's not offside, what are you blowing?

Suarez takes a quick free-kick and Sturridge passes...... Well? Referee Atkinson stopped the game first! He showed a yellow card to Sagna, and the quick serve was invalid! ”

The decision apparently caused displeasure among all Liverpudlians, who immediately gathered around to ask for an explanation.

But the referee was very resolute, saying that this fast hair did not get his permission, and it definitely did not count.

There was no way, Liverpool had to accept reality.

"Unfortunately, Liverpool's goal was invalidated and only one free-kick was granted......

Gerrard's free-kick is crossed to Collo. Toure's header was brilliantly saved by Szczesny.

Szczesny waved his players forward and then slotted the ball into the Liverpool penalty area, but Arsenal's attack was once again in vain, and the ball was confiscated by Mignole and passed to the midfield.

As soon as Sissoko got the ball, Modric pressed up.

When the two were at a stalemate, Gerrard came to help, and Sissoko quickly passed the ball, but Rosicky suddenly came out and broke the ball with a long-distance sliding tackle.

"Rosicky cut off Sissoko and Gerrard's attacking lanes, and it's time for Arsenal's fast break!"

Rosicky fed the ball to Cazorla and then joined Luka Modric in a quick cut down the middle.

Cazorla was blocked by Lucas, but was quick to break through the defence with a delicate dribble and sent the ball back into the middle with a diagonal kick.

Flanagan was about to foul and stop Rosicky from receiving the ball, but Rosicky suddenly jumped up and let the ball roll under his feet.

Modric made three steps and two steps to quickly control the ball at his feet.

Lin Yun and Giroud split into two ways and went straight to the door.

Modric glanced at it and toes.

The ball leaps high and falls to the right side of the goal.

Mignole pounced again, but this time Lin Yun was not polite to him again, jumped high, and kicked the ball into the goal.

Top scorer, who else!!

He himself called this move the Demon Flying Kick, which comes from the "Demon Aura", but in the eyes of others, this kind of shooting has another more representative name: Lin Yun GOAL!

Modric picks up the pass, Lin Yun's trademark left-footed flying kick, and the ball goes in!

The Demon Emperor is connected, and the mana is unlimited!!

After almost 20 minutes of attacking each other, it was Arsenal who took the lead.

Lin Yun, who had been away from the court for 40 days, staged the return of the king, and broke through the opponent's door when he came back. ”

"GOAL!!

A wonderful combination of Arsenal midfielders!

When the best passer meets the best shooter, scoring goals becomes so easy!

Lin scored his 10th Premier League goal of the season and cemented his place in the top scorers' charts!

Arsenal are currently the only team in the Premier League to have scored in every game, and nine of those 10 have been the first to score. ”

"Here and again, with the spikes scored, I want to kick myself into the goal."

"One thing to say, the shot is explosive, but isn't the speed too outrageous?"

"Don't say it, knock one first, you are free."

Lin Yun ran to the sidelines, sat down cross-legged, and pinched the lotus flower in his hand......

Luka Modric and Olivier Giroud came running from behind, got close and got down on their knees, glided to him, and then grabbed his body and shook him violently.

Giroud shouted: "Why do you have to use your feet when you can head the ball into goal? ”

Modric exclaimed, "Where did you learn this trick?" Chinese gong fu?"

Lin Yun was dangled by them, his posture was white, he could only stop meditating, stood up and patted his buttocks, "Why use your head to solve things that can be solved with your feet?" ”

The Magic Flute said: "You haven't answered my question yet, do you know kung fu?" ”

"I did learn two tricks when I was a child, but it has nothing to do with this."

Arsene Wenger on the sidelines was happy and helpless.

Happy because a healthy and powerful Lin Yun is back, but helpless because this kid shoots with dangerous moves again.

In fact, he didn't know where the danger of this action was, at most, it was easy to kick the goalpost or easy to pull it off, but every time he saw Lin Yun's exaggerated and domineering action, he just felt very dangerous.

The camera suddenly pans to Suarez.

I saw that this thing actually ran a few steps, and then suddenly jumped up, and kicked the air in front of him with his right foot...

Zhan Jun was directly amused, "Suarez is practicing Lin Yun's goal in front of the air, it seems that he also thinks this way of shooting is magical..."
