Chapter 93 It is well known that I am so good [Please subscribe! 】
In mid-May, the five major leagues basically came to an end.
The most dramatic one is undoubtedly the Premier League championship battle.
After the "shattering slip" at Anfield, Liverpool gave up the title initiative to Manchester City.
In the penultimate round of the league, against Crystal Palace, they were tenaciously equalized by Crystal Palace at a score of 3-0, completely losing hope of competing for the championship.
In the end, Manchester City, who had been in the championship group all season, came from behind and won the Premier League championship in the 2013-14 season!
Liverpool finished second and Chelsea ranked third.
Arsenal, which had been at the top of the list for the first 20 rounds and won the half-way championship, began to habitually fall off the chain in February, and finally returned to its familiar position - fourth!
It is indeed a battle for the four crazy demons!
Arsenal fans have mixed feelings about the team's performance this season.
Sadly, the team ranked fourth in the league again and once again missed the Premier League championship.
The good news is that the team has reached the FA Cup finals and still has a chance to compete for the championship!
Since the FA Cup championship in 2004-05, Arsenal has experienced an embarrassing period of nine years without a championship.
In the past nine years, many Arsenal players have left Arsenal either for the championship, for money, or for competitive reasons.
Among them is the story of the Four Gentlemen of North London, which is the most widely spread and the most talked about.
Zhongyifa, Fan Zhizhi, Nasuyi and Songgongming are the names that Arsenal fans are least willing to mention.
In addition, since Vieira in 2006, captains of different periods such as Henry, Fabregas, and Van Persie have all left the team due to various reasons.
In this regard, selling the captain has become a traditional art of Arsenal and a joke among fans.
In the final analysis, the team's performance is still unsatisfactory.
If you can sell your captain and main players every year, and still win championships every year, then fans will not remember these jokes at all, but will only remember what championships the team won this season.
However, that is simply impossible!
In the context of Jinyuan Football, abundant capital has entered the Premier League, and outstanding players have also defected from major leagues. The competitiveness of each Premier League team is more than a little stronger than in the last century.
It is not easy for Wenger to lead Arsenal to consistently rank in the top four every year and qualify for the Champions League despite selling the captain and losing the main players every year, and with low salary space.
Of course, reaching the FA Cup final again after many years, both coaches, players and fans hope to win this championship and end the embarrassing record of nine years without a championship!
. . .
May 16th, the day before the FA Cup final.
BBC's old football program "Matchoftheday" has specially planned a preview program for the FA Cup.
At the beginning of the program, a carefully edited collection of game highlights was played.
In the highlights, the game scenes between Arsenal and Leicester City are interspersed with each other, introducing the two teams' promotion paths to the audience.
Then the pre-match interview clips of the head coaches of the two teams were played, asking the head coaches of the two teams how they felt about reaching the FA Cup final.
Finally, the main players of the two teams appeared and talked about their thoughts.
The player featured in Arsenal is the backbone of the team's defense, French central defender Koscielny.
The player featured in Leicester City is none other than Ling Feng, the team’s core midfielder!
During the period, we also collected the thoughts of the fans of the two teams on this final.
Due to the fact that he has not won a championship for many years and has failed to compete for the championship again this year, Wenger's position as coach is actually not that stable.
Many Arsenal fans believe that the team needs to change.
However, no one directly said that Wenger should be fired.
After all, Wenger has coached this club for nearly eighteen years since 1996. He is the longest-serving coach of the same Premier League club after Ferguson of Manchester United.
It is no exaggeration to say that Arsenal is Wenger and Wenger is Arsenal! No one dares to imagine what Arsenal would be like if Wenger left
It is worth mentioning that most Arsenal fans are optimistic about this final and believe that their team will win.
In their view, although Leicester City is the dominant player in the English Championship, they even eliminated three Premier League teams, Stoke City, Chelsea and Hull City, in the FA Cup.
However, they are still very confident and believe that Arsenal's passing and controlling style can completely destroy Leicester City.
The fans of Leicester City are very open-minded.
In their view, winning the English Championship this season, directly being promoted to the Premier League, and reaching the FA Cup final is already a surprise.
Regardless of the final result, this season will be a satisfying one!
Finally, there is the interview with the head coaches of the two teams.
After playing the carefully produced video, the screen returned to the studio.
Sitting in a chair, Lineker looked at the camera and showed his iconic smile:
“Welcome to the Matchoftheday FA Cup special program, I am Gareth· Lineker."
"In this FA Cup final preview special, we have invited Martin Keown, a champion member who helped Arsenal win two FA Cup championships."
Martin Keown is Arsenal's famous " The last of the "Five Defense Veterans" was also a defensive fighter who witnessed Arsenal's step-by-step rise in the 1990s.
Because the show host Lineker is a die-hard Leicester City star and a star, and then inviting a star from Arsenal to come over, and the two of them each support a team, can create a topic.
This kind of arrangement, the "Match Day" program team is so skilled
The two first analyzed every game of the two teams in the process of advancing to the finals, and then predicted Let’s take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams in the final.
Then, Lineker suddenly asked;
"Martin, who do you think will be Arsenal's key player in this game?"
Faced with this question, Martin Keown thought for a while and then replied:
“I would choose Cazorla.”
“Why?”
"He is an indispensable brain in Arsenal's formation. With his organization, the team's offense can be smooth."
After answering, Martin followed the script and asked Lineker in turn: "Gary, Who do you think will be the key player in Leicester City's formation?"
"There is no doubt that it is Ling Feng!"
"I can tell you are very optimistic about this young man."
“I have said more than once that this young man is very talented and will definitely become a top player in the world in the future”
While Lineker was praising Ling Feng on the show, Mahrez, who was sitting next to Ling Feng on the Leicester City team bus, was watching "The Match" on his mobile phone. "Japan" program, learning English, he poked Ling Feng with his elbow, who was closing his eyes and concentrating next to him:
"Ling, Lineker is praising you again!"
Hearing this, Ling Feng turned his head and glanced at Mahrez's mobile phone screen. Then he closed his eyes again and replied lightly:
"It is well known that I am so good. He praised me It’s not just a matter of a day or two.”
Hearing this, Mahrez was speechless.
Although there is nothing wrong with this.
But why does it sound so deserving of a beating?
Yesterday’s update.
