Chapter 7 Countdown to the new season
Although some fans still believe that the team sold a Champions League champion player and bought a bunch of young players was an irrational replacement, but everyone's verbal battle against Kroenke and the club's senior management still calmed down.
As the new season is about to begin, it is meaningless to continue to worry about those things. The most important thing is to take a closer look at the team's performance this season.
News and news from major clubs have begun to revolve around the new season, and professors are constantly trying to combine and match the teams in the new season. In general, in addition to taking time to train new players, Wenger still has a set of starting players that can be used directly.
In the new season, the team's second and third captains have also changed.
Since Rossicky has completely become a substitute rotation player, and continuing to serve as deputy captain may not be able to serve as the commander of the players on the field, the professor decided to appoint the team's defender Ville Mullen as the new vice captain after communicating with him, and Rossicky became the third captain.
As for the first captain, it is natural that Liu Feng is still unshakable. As the existence of the club's flag, as long as he stands on the court, the sublimation he brings to the entire team will not be explained in one or two words.
Anyone can move, but Super Maple can't move.
Time is getting closer, and before other leagues begin, the Premier League, which is very good at capturing business opportunities, is still the first league to restart the league.
On August 17, 2013, Arsenal will usher in their first round of league games, when they will play against Aston Villa who is coming to challenge at home.
Although the opponent he faced was Aston Villa, who was thrillingly relegated last season, it seemed as if God was going to fight Arsenal. When they entered the final preparation week, injuries suddenly came.
The entire training session was like an iron man, Vermallen was injured in a direct ligament pull for two months. Ramsey, in the midfield, also pulled his thigh when he was running back in training and was expected to be injured for half a month.
This made the professor very uncomfortable. Before he played the first game of the new season, the team's two absolute main players, the back line and midfielder, were directly injured, which was not a good sign no matter how you look at it.
Compared with them, Aston Villa has introduced a lot of strong players this season, ready to improve the team's league results.
In the pre-match warm-up match of Villa, their forwards Bentek and Abanglaho scored goals and were in good shape. In this pre-match interview, the two directly said that they had great hope of scoring at the Emirates Stadium.
Time passed quickly and it was soon the day of the game.
North London has been filled with excited Arsenal fans since 7 a.m., with countless fans wearing red and white jerseys waving the flags in their hands to celebrate the arrival of the new season.
Last season was a perfect season for Gun fans. I felt so happy to see my favorite team completely ascend to the indisputable throne.
When Arsenal's bus drove into the street in front of Emirates Stadium, the players were also greeted with roaring tides.
The old players in the car were all mobilized and excited, not to mention the new players who joined the team and were full of freshness in everything about the team.
It was the first time James Rodriguez has seen such a big scene. After all, although playing in Porto is a giant in the Portuguese Super League, it is still worse than a giant of Arsenal.
"How about it, choosing to come here is definitely the most correct choice you make."
Gansuo, who was sitting next to J Ronaldo, looked at the young man in front of him with a smile, and he remembered his appearance as he joined Arsenal two seasons ago.
Arsenal had just completed its seven-time championship season at that time, and everything was very similar to what it is now.
"As long as you can show your talent on the court, fans will cheer for you, it's very simple~"
"Uh-huh!"
The Gunners bus drove into Emirates Stadium, and the players quickly got out of the car and went to the locker room. As someone walked and came, the ownership of the locker in the team's locker room also changed.
The owner of Aguero's cabinet, who had been sitting next to Liu Feng, became William, who had joined the new team. De Jong's cabinet belonged to J Ronaldo. The players came and went, but these cabinets were always standing here, witnessing the birth and ending of one legend after another.
When captain Liu Feng led the team members into the stadium to warm up, there were loud shouts coming from the Emirates Stadium, which was directly close to full in this game.
"Arsenal! Arsenal! Arsenal!"
"Maple! Maple! Maple!"
...
There are the name of the team, the name of that man, and the names of many other popular stars of the team. The players waved their hands to say hello to the fans and then went to the warm-up.
In this game, the professor did not entreat the 442 formation.
Liu Feng and Giroud partnered as the team's starting lineup, Neymar and Walcott left and right wing forwards, Wilhelm and Ganso formed the team's starting midfield combination.
That's right, because the new players have not yet fully integrated into the team, the professor mainly chose the team's main force last season to form the starting lineup.
On the back line, Alba and Alves were still on the left and right, but the partner with Mertesack became Koscheerney. After all, Vermallen would be injured for two months.
Think about it carefully, the Gunners' captain's position seems to be cursed. Except for Liu Feng who suppressed it with his strong strength, other players will always encounter various problems when they are appointed as the team's captain. Maybe Vermall is injured and he is appointed as the deputy captain.
Finally, there was the goalkeeper position. Szczesni still grasped the starting goalkeeper position. Although Fabianski's condition was almost the same as that of him, the professor still chose to believe in the championship goalkeeper last season.
When Arsenal's warm-up was halfway through, Aston Villa officially entered the court. Compared to the huge shouts the Gunners ushered in, they naturally received huge booings.
J Ronaldo, who was training with a group of big shots, listened to the booing echoing throughout the court, and his heart was thrust, which was a bit different from the atmosphere he had when he was in the warm-up match against Arsenal.
Obviously, only when the real fight is true will Arsenal fans put in a 100,000 yuan effort to create a home advantage for the team.
When the warm-ups of the two teams ended one after another and both sides returned to the locker room, the staff on the scene began to carry out the last venue maintenance.
The 2013-2014 Premier League season has officially entered the countdown.
Chapter completed!
