Chapter 517： Champions League opener

Chapter 517 Champions League opener

In the training ground, Arsenal's players are in a training match.

Judging from the situation on the field, the entire attack and defense are extremely smooth, but if you look carefully, it is not difficult to find the frustration of Arsenal when attacking.

This is a sense of frustration with a sudden change in rhythm.

mainly comes from the cooperation between Wilshere and Aubameyang.

Although the two organizers have formed a certain tacit understanding, it is difficult to integrate due to their different styles.

Of course, if you ignore this detail, the overall performance is still excellent.

Lucky and Patrice stood on the sidelines.

Lucky said: "It can only be done to this extent. The two of them have already cooperated in some gestures, but this is already the limit. If you want to completely break in, you will need more time to invest."

Patrice also nodded and said, "I didn't think about how perfect they would be to cooperate, as long as you can play a sufficient role and take organizational responsibilities when you can't support it."

Lucky nodded.

Patrice said suddenly; "If only Cazorla was here."

Hearing this, Le Kai shook his head and smiled bitterly.

If Cazorla is still there, the cooperation between Lucky and Cazorla is enough to bring Arsenal back to life.

Even during the period when Lucky was exercising his big core attributes, Cazorla and Lucky's partners were still able to guarantee enough victories, instead of playing extremely close games as they are now.

Of course, this is also the situation that most Premier League fans need to face.

Last season, Arsenal played well, and here are the reasons for their soaring strength, and the reasons why many clubs lack sufficient research on this brand-new gunman.

But after entering this season, Arsenal experienced many blows and suffered a dismal start, and their state went up and down.

Although Patrice wanted to reverse this situation, he also knew very well that with his half-hearted coaching ability, it was difficult to complete this problem.

Of course, at present, there is no more suitable head coach for this position than Patrice.

After all, Patrice was the interim coach, and the one served by Arsenal. After all, he was the former assistant coach of Arsenal, and he had the support of the captain, Le Kai. No one dared to challenge Patrice's authority.

With a brand new head coach, there can only be two developments.

Either, Arsenal played a blossoming and continued glory.

Or, the conflict between the players and the coach broke out completely, and Arsenal collapsed directly.

And the latter is more likely.

In this case, Patrice is undoubtedly the best replacement.

"Next game, we're going to play Astana!"

This is the first time that a team from Kazakhstan has reached the group stage of the Champions League, which has also become a highlight moment for this team.

Although many people say that this is the weakest team in Group C, Arsenal's current state is not guaranteed to win.

After all, the success of studying Arsenal has been announced to all over the world, and many people know how to target this Arsenal.

When Lucky can't get out of the restriction independently, Arsenal's offense will become weak.

So, Astana will definitely use this point as a breakthrough.

"Next game, can you break free?"

asked Patrice.

Le Kai pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, I can't guarantee it! But I will try my best to get rid of it."

Ability is not achieved overnight. After each game, Le Kai tasted the results brought by training, and also obtained the opponent's highest standard three-person defense.

Now in front of Lucky is how to break through this limit circle.

Of course, Le Kai was also a little depressed, after all, he was targeted by the opponent just after he kicked out the effect.

But it is understandable to think about it, Arsenal's championship team, it is estimated that all clubs in the world do not want to see Arsenal return to the state of last season.

So, their updates on Arsenal are very fast.

At the same time, the defense against Lucky also became fierce.

Lekai is good in the midfield position. Once he appears in the central midfield, he will be guarded.

But Lekai retreated to the position of the midfielder, and he couldn't show enough offensive performance.

This is an extremely spear squatting thing, and it also shows Lucky's technical shortcomings.

"If only I could play like Cazorla."

Lucky shook his head.

He also wants to be a samba dancer with brilliant ball skills.

Why the body doesn't allow it!

Each person's body build shows that there are many movements that Cazorla can do that Lucky can't.

If Lucky can play like Cazorla under his own abilities, it is estimated that he is the so-called super core of Arsenal.

Patrice turned to look at Lucky.

He could see this disciple's urgency from Le Kai's clenched brows.

This is also true, Luckey is Arsenal's captain and a core player at the same time.

The current situation of Arsenal is not good, and it is a matter of course for the core Lekai to blame himself.

After all, if this core is strong enough and has no shortcomings, will Arsenal still encounter this situation?

Le Kai asked himself, if they can break through the limit circle by themselves, then they don't need to divide the organization.

"Don't think about these questions!"

Patrice patted Lekai on the shoulder and said; "Everyone is an independent individual, Cazorla has his own way of playing, and you also have your own way of playing. The so-called big-core game is of course A player without weaknesses, but are there really players without weaknesses?"

Patrice smiled and said: "Every midfielder is a different type. Yaya Toure and Modric have no shortcomings, but are they really the same type of player?"

Lucky was stunned for a moment.

Patrice continued; "So, don't think about who you are, there are things you can't achieve with training, you have to learn how to hide or solve it."

Le Kai thought for a moment, then scratched his head and said, "I don't understand very well."

Patrice shrugged; "You will understand in the future, play more football, gain more experience, you will always know yourself best, I can give you advice, but I can't help you solve these problems completely."

Lucky nodded.

Patrice smiled and clapped his hands, calling the players together.

"Guys, meet at the training base at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, we're going to Kazakhstan."

Hearing the words, the faces of Arsenal's players became solemn.

They knew very well that it was time to prepare for the Champions League.

As the Champions League champions last season, their performance this season can’t be too bad.

The good news is that the opponents in the first game are not strong, which may allow them to accumulate some game form.

The next day, the Arsenal players flew to Asnata, the capital of Kazakhstan, also known as Nur-Sultan.

Astana club reached the Champions League group stage for the first time in history. When they broke through the qualifying round, the whole of Kazakhstan was boiling.

As a league ranked low in European football, Kazakhstan has never had a team that has seen the attitude of the Champions League.

They also failed to appreciate the style of those world-class superstars.

So for Kazakhstan fans, it was a very different day.

Astana Stadium is a home stadium that can accommodate 30,000 people. Due to the downturn in the Kazakhstan football market, this home stadium has only a few thousand spectators all year round.

For this reason, in most cases, other courts are almost closed, and one side of the court is opened separately.

But this time, the Astana Stadium opened all areas of the stands and sold all the tickets in just one day.

The reason is very simple, Kazakhstan fans are here to see Arsenal!

As Champions League Champions!

The team has many stars such as Suarez, Le Kai, and Aubameyang, and it is a giant team with a long history in the Premier League. How can they miss this kind of game.

For every Kazakhstan fan or non-fan, they want to see the style of this Champions League champion and Premier League gunner.

Not only fans, but even Astana players are extremely excited.

Although the opponent is Arsenal, they are also very nervous, but deep down they are full of excitement.

After all, this is the first time they have reached the Champions League group stage, and can directly talk to a giant team like Arsenal.

It can be said that this is the peak moment of their current career!
