Chapter 36 Chasing the Leader

He has achieved an excellent record of five wins and one draw in the league. Arsenal is now the only two team in the Premier League this season that has maintained an unbeaten gold medal. Arsenal is now at the top of the standings. They now have a good chance to hit the top of Chelsea, which is ranked ahead of them, maintaining a total of six victories.

The focus match in the seventh round of the 2009-10 English Football Super League was held at the Villa Craven Stadium. Arsenal, who was in a state of great strength in the season, will challenge Fulham away here. Arsenal has remained unbeaten since the season, and it has beaten Wigan Athletics in the first round of the league. Of course, the League Cup also relies on the bench to easily defeat the English Championship opponent and advance. Arsenal is in great shape now.

In the third round of the League Cup, all the top four Premier League players appeared, and they were also the main players of the second-tier players. Compared with the other three teams, Arsenal seems to be excellent in youth training. Since it is a full set of youth teams, Arsenal clubs have begun to significantly reduce ticket prices from the 2007-08 season.

Although it is just a League Cup, the Emirates Stadium is still very lively. More than 55,000 fans flocked to the stadium to watch the game. The Gunners' football charm is amazing. You can even occasionally find fans wearing Manchester City and other team uniforms "lurking" among the crowd in the stands of the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal's football was originally gorgeous and beautiful, and coupled with its recent hot record, this naturally attracted fans.

In this game, Arsenal young player Watt made up an empty goal at the right post in the 68th minute of the game to help the team open the first record; in the next 75th minute, young player Bella made a steal in the frontcourt and made a quick counterattack, and Arsenal easily defeated West Bromwich 2-0 2-0

Xiao Qing and most of his main teammates did not even make the team's roster in this game. This also gave them a certain amount of rest during the intensive schedule. However, at this time, Xiao Qing appeared in the stands at the Emirates Stadium to cheer for the young players and take advantage of this period of rest. Xiao Qing believes that he will definitely be able to get rid of his previous fatigue and make all preparations to face the next game.

The third round of the League Cup was over, and the fourth round of the English League Cup draw in the 2009-10 season was announced. As a result, Arsenal met Liverpool, one of the semifinals, too early, but the Gunners were lucky to draw home; Manchester United drew a good draw, and the Red Devils will challenge the Championship team Barnsley away; Chelsea's signing is also good, and the Blues will play at home against the Premier League weak team Bolton in the fourth round; and Manchester City has good signing luck, and the Sky Blues will play at home against the Championship team Skenthorpe.

The players who are a little depressed in the face of such a draw in Arsenal. To be honest, they definitely hope to go further in the League Cup; although the League Cup and the FA Cup are just regional cup matches, and it can even be said to be a bit useless game, which is often a burden; but if you encounter strong opponents early, this will definitely make it unreliable for young players to play.

So Arsenal is depressed now. They don’t want to get out early in the League Cup, but it is very likely that they need to send all the main players and Liverpool to fight to the death in this game; this is definitely a distressing thing, especially in late October. At that time, the league was in full swing and the Champions League group stage was in full swing.

Well, there is still about a month left in the League Cup, and at that time, Arsenal may have established the advantage of qualifying in the group stage early; so perhaps they still have a certain ability to share some energy to face the League Cup at this time, and they also believe that Liverpool must have been extremely distressed at that time.

However, these are not the most important things now. Arsenal now needs to focus more on the league and the Champions League. Especially now, the league has gradually reached nearly one-sixth, so at this time, it naturally requires a lot of effort for those teams who want to win the championship. They now need to seize the time to establish some advantages or focus on points at this time.

Arsenal is now in the second place in the standings, but now they have a chance to go further. They obviously hope to do well; so when facing Fulham's home court, which is not what they feel good, Arsenal players will still do their best to face this team in the middle and lower reaches of the standings. Arsenal believes that they can win, they believe that the team can continue to maintain an excellent state, and they believe that they can seize more initiative at this time. This is a game that Arsenal is determined to win. When facing weaker opponents, Arsenal must seize three points!

Goalkeeper Mannoni; Sania, Galas, Vermullen and Krish on the back line; Al Shavin, Fabregas, Alexander Song and Rosici in the midfield; naturally, Van Persie and Xiao Qing on the forward line are a drooling combination.

Fulham, goalkeeper Schwarzer; Pantshire, Aaron Hughes, Hangland and Concheski lined up in the back line; Duff, Grae, Murphy, and Dempsey were also quite capable in the midfield; as for the forward line, Zamora and Di Johnson.

With the unprecedented defeat since the season, of course, there have been difficulties in recent games, but they finally came out strongly. Of course, because they are full of yearning for the league leaders, Arsenal players will definitely do their best in this game. They will burst out with strong fighting spirit in this game. They are eager to continue to win, and of course they are also waiting for Chelsea to make mistakes. Arsenal players are very patient. They do not believe that Chelsea will continue to win. Of course, this premise is based on Arsenal who can ensure that they do not make mistakes.

Although the young Gunners also understand that it will be quite difficult to lose the game throughout the season, the young Gunners can guarantee that they will not miss a good game when they shouldn't lose points, and they will do their best when facing weaker opponents. The last Champions League group stage was because of the somewhat complacent Arsenal players encountered the black five minutes at the beginning, because of their carelessness and underestimation of the opponent; but now Arsenal will not, they need to win the championship, so some mistakes are enough, and they will not continue to make such almost unforgivable mistakes.

Only 54 seconds into the game, Xiao Qing broke through and made a diagonal pass; Sarnia made a cross from the right, followed by Vermalen who was inserted in the back row and headed the ball in front of the small penalty area and missed; Vermala's goal efficiency since transferring to Arsenal, and his header was also a very effective weapon in the Gunners' tactics.

Fulham then started to counterattack. In the fourth minute of the game, Dempsey intercepted the ball in the frontcourt and was confiscated by Manoni. Then former Chelsea winger Duff was injured and replaced by Grae. Grae's cross was quite threatening. Arsenal goalkeeper Manoni, who attacked, obviously did not notice Galas who wanted to clear the ball. The two collided with a bang, and the unlucky Galas seemed to be a little injured in this collision, and Arsenal could only have one less person on the court for the time being.

Xiao Qing was very depressed. It was not that he didn't have any chance in the game, but he was a little depressed that Xiao Qing's foot style seemed to be a little unhappy. Perhaps because of the previous consecutive goals, Xiao Qing needed a time to adjust, so he could not always stay in his best state. Xiao Qing was lucky in the first half of the game, both shots were on the crossbar or post, which only means that Xiao Qing is lucky now, and he seems to need a small adjustment.

This is Xiao Qing's third professional season at least. Even if Xiao Qing is not a veteran, he is still quite experienced. He has enough playing time and has experienced many games, which also allows Xiao Qing to handle some things well on the field.

Xiao Qing now understands very well that sometimes things like luck are really mysterious, so Xiao Qing doesn't believe in any character, but he won't challenge it either. Since his footwork is not smooth now, he will make more balls for his teammates. Now Xiao Qing starts to create threats to pass the ball, which is also a good choice. Of course, Xiao Qing is not so sloppy. Although he focuses on passing the ball, Xiao Qing will also take the opportunity to shoot at this time. He wants to see if he has been in the extreme.

However, Xiao Qing does not seem very lucky for the time being. His performance is very good, but he lacks a little luck and accuracy. So at this time, Xiao Qing was much wiser to pass the ball, and Van Persie seemed to be in good condition. Although he wasted some opportunities, he was still lucky for the time being.

The two teams tied in the first half, and Arsenal finally broke the deadlock in the 52nd minute; Fabregas made a straight pass, Xiao Qing, in front of the penalty area, got the ball and turned directly into the penalty area and passed the ball with the top. Van Persie stopped the ball with her chest and then grabbed the ball with 12 yards in front of the goal. Fulham defender Aaron Hughes blocked the front tackle and shot into the lower left corner!

In the previous league match with Manchester City, Van Persie took the initiative to pass the ball to Xiao Qing, and this time it was time for Xiao Qing to repay her favor. Van Persie seemed to have forgotten to wear shooting boots since the season, and his goal efficiency in the league was scary. But now it's good, he finally scored the goal, and he scored his first goal in the league since Xiao Qing came to Arsenal!

Although it was only a one-to-zero lead, the Arsenal players were confident enough to take away a victory at Villa Craven Stadium, and they were confident that they would score three points and continue to put pressure on the leader Chelsea in the standings.
