vs 878 The crown of the king
(Cat flutter Chinese) () Arsenal have worked hard for another year in vain, which may seem excessive, but it is almost the truth.
It's already April, and it looks like Arsenal don't have much hope in the league. Although Arsenal has gained some sรจ by introducing Arsha, it has suppressed other teams at most, retaining their fourth position, and has no competition with the other three teams.
The English League Cup, FA Cup, and Arsenal have all been out, and in this game, the hope of qualifying for the Champions League has also been stifled, and Arsenal's future is bleak no matter how you look at it.
Four years without a championship is a bit too cruel for a strong team. Although everyone thinks that Arsenal has a future and can win in the future, in fact, people have to admit that such a future seems to be out of reach.
Arsenal is cultivating talent, but other teams rely on direct talent. Real Madrid's frontline is bought except for Raul, who is an academy player, but they still play well. In contrast to this, how can we train people to succeed? Arsenal's hopes, no matter how you look at it.
"Listen, now Manchester City are already making offers to buy Toure and Adebayo for Arsenal." Seeing that the game was getting more and more unbearable, Lineker couldn't help but speak, "Moreover, Wenger is also interested in selling." According to Toure's feud with Galla, Arsene Wenger's preference for Galla was the reason why he wanted to sell Toure, but Adebayo's departure was purely because he wanted to leave. โ
"Because Manchester City gives a lot of money?"
"Yes, Manchester City gave him a weekly salary of ยฃ170,000."
"Why do I suddenly think that anyone can get ยฃ170,000 a week?" Hansen complained, "Now that I think about it, it's really not worth it for Liverpool, even Adebayo is 170,000 a week......
"That's not what I want," Lineker said with a wry smile, "The point I want is that Arsenal's model seems to have gone wrong. Relying on Arsene Wenger's good eyes to see good young players, and then they develop young people, relying on young people to win championships, has always been considered the most outstanding model of team building, but it seems that now, there is a problem. Look at Arsenal, their young people, when the team can't win the title, the idea is not how to help the team win the title, but how to change the team, change a group of good teammates, so as to win the title. At our time, such a thing had to be concealed, but now, ambition is already a public reason for them, and it can be regarded as an open reason. โ
"After the Boseman Act, the connection between the team and the players will never be the way it used to be. In the past, the team was everything to the players, and the team had jurisdiction over the players, which also made the players not think about things outside their own team. But now, everyone is a naked businessman and a commodity relationship, and naturally there is no such emotion as before. Since the players are no longer tied to the team, but can have their own choices, then, naturally, there is no loyalty to speak of. Hansen replied.
"So, is it possible that this Arsenal team will all fall apart one day?"
"It's not impossible. There comes a time when the players leave enough money for the team. โ
"But there is really no hope for such an Arsenal......"
In fact, they all understand that this season, with the new tax laws enacted, English football is finished. The 40% tax rate has risen to 50%, coupled with the depreciation of the pound, the two things are linked, the players' incomes have plummeted, and who wants to stay and play here?
The economy is everything โ what was Serie A at the level of the 90s, and even at the beginning of the century? Why? At that time, there were loopholes in the Italian tax law and tax evasion, so Italy could give people an annual salary of more than 7 million and only pay 2 million in taxes. But in the new century, as soon as the new tax law was announced, the loopholes were plugged, and Italian football was completely finished. The better top three can still be supported, but Rome, Lazio, Parma and Fiorentina, which have a worse economic foundation, are really on the run.
And now, it's England's turn. Spain has the Beckham Act, which allows players to pay high salaries. Now, England is already facing a great crisis, after the new tax law is enacted, what to use against Spain?
After this season, I'm afraid that in the future, it will really be the era of Zhao Yaning's rule.
On the pitch, Real Madrid had already scored their fourth goal. This time, after Zhao Yaning, who got the ball, ran back, he sent the ball into the penalty area and gave it to Raul, and Raul gave an assist, knocked the ball back to Ibrahimovic, and let Ibrahimovic score a goal. Arsenal are completely powerless and the game is coming to an end.
"Maybe, in the future, it will be really difficult for us to win the championship, and it is no wonder that these players all want to flee. What is a player without a championship? โ
"I don't think a championship is what is all there is to judge a person." Hansen shook his head and said, "Alan Shearer doesn't have any great titles, but he's still the best striker in the Premier League. Batistuta doesn't have any great accolades, but how good he is, the fans remember. It is an extremely stupid idea to think that with a championship there is everything, whether a player is really strong or not depends not on the number of champions, but on the performance on the field. โ
"That doesn't seem right......"
"Of course, the strength is there, and the championship is a proof, such as Zhao Yaning, he won the Champions League, which is enough to prove that he is the number one in the world. But in addition to him, Tevez, Rooney, Lampard, no matter how much they win the Champions League, it has nothing to do with the world's number one player. And another example is the World Cup championship, that thing, a specific person got it, that is the king of the ball. For example, Ronaldo in '98 and Ronaldinho in '06. But it's not them, even if it's them, it's not that one characteristic of time, even if it's a good performance, it has nothing to do with the king of the ball. Ronaldo won the World Cup in 02, and there is no one who is the king of the ball - time passes, and opportunities wait for no one. The trophy of the champion is the crown of the king, the Champions League is the crown of the world's No. 1, and the World Cup is the crown of the king of the ball. It is a pity that the king does not have a crown, but it is also an uncrowned king. But whoever doesn't wear a crown is a king. โ
"Then how many times has Zhao Yaning worn the crown?"
"How can different teams, different eras, be counted in unison? Unless it's a Champions League dynasty, what kind of crown is it? โโโ
Real Madrid comfortably beat Arsenal on their home turf.
3-1 at home, Arsenal was suppressed all over the field and had almost no power to fight back. Zhao Yaning played an extremely beautiful game, not only relying on his own ball control to press, forcing Arsenal to change formation and lose offensive power, but at the same time, he also relied on his own involvement to get enough opportunities for his teammates, and even broke through to the penalty area and scored a goal. Doing these things, so that after the game, he also received great praise.
'Real Madrid are very strong, they deserve a win. In an interview after the game, Wenger also admitted that his team was not as good as others, "In the last game, we should have done better, but that mistake made us not able to grasp the opportunity, and the game deviated from what we expected, which also caused the final defeat......
Wenger's resentment is still the performance of Jurourou in the Champions League. In fact, if it weren't for Jurou's play, judging from Ibrahimovic's mistake, Arsenal would have really won a victory. Although, this match at the Bernabeu was a complete defeat, but what if the first leg was won? Maybe everything will change.
But now, Arsenal has to accept that it is another year of empty fate.
"We are not going to sell any players, whether it is Bam Adebayo or Toure, who will stay in our squad. Arsenal have a future ahead and we can do better. โ
Although Arsene Wenger once again stressed his confidence after the game, these words were scoffed at by many media: now it's not a matter of whether you want to sell or not, but whether the players are willing to stay. Bam Adebayo is already contacting Manchester City for money reasons, and Cesc Fabregas is also a heart-wrenching horse, what does Wenger think that everyone is still willing to stay with him loyally and stay at the Emirates Stadium?
Real Madrid, on the other hand, once again advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League and became the team in the last four.
At this time, the games of several other teams were also completed at about the same time.
Manchester United and Barcelona are out of the equation without pressure. Because the opponent is a Portuguese Super League player, they are playing with great ease. Although Fika and Porto are both giants of the Portuguese Super League, there is a qualitative gap between them and the teams in La Liga of the Premier League. Manchester United and Barcelona almost all chose to rely on the substitute lineup in the game, but neither Fika nor Porto made waves and were directly eliminated by them.
In the last game, between Chelsea and Liverpool, Chelsea was born again. Although the game at Stamford Bridge was a fierce battle between the two sides, it was a rare 4-4 tie, but Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-1 in the absence of Fernando Torres and Mascherano at Anfield, which also caused Liverpool to withdraw from the game again.
And this time the Champions League, at this time, that is, La Liga and the Premier League each account for half of the country. And Manchester United vs. Real Madrid, Chelsea vs. Barcelona, can be regarded as meeting their old enemies. Real Madrid wants to avenge their elimination last season, and Chelsea and Barcelona are born incompatible, and the two-on-two fight between these two teams has become the focus of everyone's attention.
At this time, Zhao Yaning was also happy and puzzled by another news: although he did not return to the national team's game, he still won.
The two matches of the national team, one in February and one at the end of March. One coincided with the Copa del Rey weekly double-tie period, while the other was at the end of March, before the Arsenal game. These two time periods are really embarrassing, and I have to fly back to Asia to play the national team in two games a week, which is a little tiring no matter how I look at it.
And because these two games are right, one is a home game against North Korea and the other is an away game against Qatar, which is not a particularly strong team, Coach Gao also made the decision and told him that he didn't have to go back to China.
To Zhao Yaning's surprise, these two games were won.
"I remember if I'm not wrong, it seems that Qu Bo and Zheng Zhi have been unable to mix abroad this season, and they have both returned to China, right? The strength of the national team should have weakened a lot, why did it play a good game? Zhao Yaning was a little puzzled by this. After the game, he specially found the game tape and watched it several times, and the final result was that the overall performance of the national team seemed to be better than what he usually saw.
"Well, when you return home, I'll explain it to you carefully." Zhang Yuan said on the other end of the phone, "On the phone, something is not very convenient. But, remember what I did, in the 2010 World Cup, you definitely had a good team. I have done this, and now, it is time for me to fulfill my promise. "Cat flutter Chinese
