I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 184: The King of the Sky! At this moment, the soul of Drogba the Beast is possessed! [Subscribe]

April 10th afternoon, Emirates Stadium, London.

In the 9th round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese challenged Arsenal away.

When referee Andrew Marina blew the whistle to start the game, Carroll kicked the ball back to the defense line from the center circle.

As soon as Jose Fonte received the ball, Arsenal center forward Benzema quickly rushed to him.

The Portuguese centre-back quickly passed the ball to Pepe.

Arshavin also rushed towards Pepe at the first moment, forcing Pepe to pass the ball back to goalkeeper Neuer at the first moment.

As soon as Neuer stopped the ball, Benzema rushed towards him.

But the German goalkeeper was not afraid and remained calm.

It was not until Benzema was about to rush to him that Neuer made a long pass and kicked the ball towards the front court.

Neuer is not gambling, he is waiting.

At the bottom of the center circle in Arsenal's half, Carroll leaned on Koscielny and headed the ball to the right.

Walcott quickly moved forward and grabbed the second spot.

However, the attack by the Chinese players from Bayswater on the right was ineffective as the ball was quickly intercepted by Gallas.

But the cooperation at the beginning was still very good.

Whether it was Neuer's long pass or Carroll's header, their skills were very evident.

After the ball changed hands, Arsenal tried to launch a fast break.

But Matuidi fouled Fabregas near the center circle in Arsenal's half, ending Arsenal's counterattack.

……

Yang Cheng stood in front of the visiting team's coaching booth and applauded the players loudly.

This foul was timely.

The Gunners have basically fallen behind in all the strong matches this season.

In the 4th and 5th rounds, consecutive losses to Manchester United and Manchester City made everyone worried about the prospects of Wenger's team.

Everyone knows the importance of strong dialogue.

But both games were away from home.

In four home games this season, the Gunners have scored 4 goals.

Yes, you heard it right, 4 goals in 18 games.

3 goals in 4 games, 6 goals in the previous round.

On the contrary, on the road, except for the 6-1 away victory over Everton in the first round, the Gunners have not played very well in other away games.

Including a narrow 7-1 away win over Fulham in the 0th round.

But nothing is absolute.

When it comes to teams of the level of Bayswater Chinese and Arsenal, the home and away factors will have an impact, but not that big.

The most important thing is the opponent's tactics.

Manchester United, Manchester City and Fulham all rely on defensive counterattacks.

This is not because Arsenal is too strong, but because everyone wants to win in a more certain way.

Including today's Yang Cheng.

Arsenal played in a 4231 formation.

Goalkeeper: Lloris;

Defense: Clichy, Gallas, Koscielny and Sagna;

Midfield: Alexandre Song and Gourcuff in the back, with Arshavin, Fabregas and Van Persie in front;

Forward: Benzema.

The Gunners were different from Bayswater Chinese, as they were lucky in the group stage draw and were almost guaranteed to advance.

After this game, they will play away against Alkmaar in the Champions League group stage.

Therefore, Wenger dared to send out all his main players in this game to fight to the death with the Chinese in Bayswater.

Where is Yang Cheng?
Next Wednesday we will also play away, in Madrid, Spain, against Real Madrid.

After losing the game at the Bernabeu, the fight for the top spot in the group became passive.

With national team matches in two weeks ahead and a strong rival, Real Madrid, behind, what can Yang Cheng do?
Adjust and rotate.

So he arranged a rotation lineup tonight.

Goalkeeper: Neuer;

Defense: Ryan Bertrand, Jose Fonte, Pepe and Piszczek;

Midfield: Javi Martinez in the back, with Matuidi and Modric in front;

Forwards: Gareth Bale, Carroll and Walcott.

Di Maria and Thiago Silva were not even included in the match roster.

Yang Cheng let them rest and recover, and was sitting in the stands at this time.

From the opening, Arsenal showed an aggressive momentum and Yang Cheng could feel Wenger's determination.

"He wants to use us to establish his authority!" Yang Cheng snorted and sneered twice.

"Losing to the Manchester duo was a big blow to the Gunners," said Brian Kidd.

If it could be explained before, it was because we played away games, and for two consecutive rounds.

But if they fail to win against Bayswater Chinese at home, the Gunners may fail in this season's strong confrontations.

If the results in the strong confrontation are not good, how can Wenger talk about winning the championship?
However, in this game, Yang Cheng also left a shortcoming, left-back Ryan Bertrand.

This young player, who previously played for Chelsea's youth training camp, started in the league for the first time for Bayswater Chinese.

I’m not young anymore, 20 years old, but I don’t know if I can keep stable.

Because of this, Yang Cheng arranged Matuidi on this side.

At the same time, he also reminded Gareth Bale that if there was a problem with the defense, he should return to defense in time.

After the opening, the Chinese players in Bayswater consciously tightened their defense.

But it is definitely not a strict defense.

For example, at 2 minutes and 48 seconds, Andy Carroll suddenly rushed forward and almost stole the ball from Gallas.

This scared the Arsenal center back and he had to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper quickly.

Yang Cheng's game strategy is to rely on solid defense in the backcourt and strong control in the midfield to minimize Arsenal's chances of entering the penalty area.

So, in the first 10 minutes, Arsenal's ball possession rate was as high as 68%.

How about the number of shots?
zero!
The Gunners' attack found it difficult to effectively penetrate the Bayswater Chinese penalty area.

Even taking a long shot is not easy.

Javi Martinez is like a wall outside the penalty area, and with Matuidi and Modric, it is not easy for Arsenal to pass through the midfield.

Arshavin tried several times to use his personal ability to dribble forward, but it didn't work.

Piszczek has been with Bayswater Chinese for so many years and is now completely familiar with the right-back position.

On defense, he's like a workaholic.

He is also fast, has good footwork, and is brave and fighting.

There was even one time when they were closely guarding Arshavin, the two of them hugged each other and fell down, and Arshavin was so angry that he pushed him away.

But the Russians reacted quickly and walked over to apologize to Piszczek.

At least the Pole didn't take advantage of the opportunity to fall to the ground.

That's how football plays sometimes.

I was so into the game that it was easy to lose control of my emotions.

……

"Calm down, don't worry!"

“Calm down! Calm down!!”

Wenger shouted loudly on the sidelines.

He realized that after the opening, the Gunners successfully controlled the ball, but their offense failed to pose a threat.

Even the shot hasn't been taken yet.

This made the Gunners players somewhat anxious.

Arshavin pushing Piszczek away just now is a good evidence.

But what kind of team is Bayswater Chinese?
How solid is their defense?
If I lose my composure and let the Chinese in Bayswater take advantage of the opportunity, the consequences will be disastrous.

As long as the team makes the slightest mistake, it is possible for Bayswater Chinese to launch a threatening attack.

This is extremely fatal!

Thinking of this, Wenger quickly walked to the sidelines and signaled Gourcuff and Fabregas to control the pace of the game.

Slow down a bit and pay attention to the pass in the midfield.

He noticed that Matuidi and Modric were always sweeping.

Especially Matuidi.

This kid is really good at running and passing the ball.

And Javi Martinez.

The Spanish midfielder is good at both attacking and defending, but he is also very good at defending and winning the ball.

"Yang Cheng is a bastard, full of evil intentions."

Wenger walked back to the home team's dugout angrily and complained to assistant coach Pat Rice.

"Before at Old Trafford, Ferguson told me that Yang Cheng encouraged him to poach Busquets, De Rossi and Toulalan."

"He said these players were his recruitment targets and praised them all like flowers."

Toulalan is currently sitting on Arsenal's bench, but because he had just participated in the national team game and Wenger wanted to take the initiative today, he was not arranged to play.

"As a result, you see, he turned around and signed Javi Martinez." Wenger became more and more angry.

He is not interested in Javi Martinez, but the Spanish midfielder performed well in this game.

On the contrary, Ferguson looked depressed when he was told this.

I feel like I was cheated by Yang Cheng!
"Is he doing this because De Rossi was snatched away by Manchester United and Toulalan came to our Arsenal?" Pat Rice was a little surprised.

Wenger glanced at his assistant and shook his head.

So simple!

"That bastard never thought about poaching De Rossi or Toulalan from the beginning. He just wanted to buy Javi Martinez. He deliberately spread the news and even encouraged Ferguson to compete with Barcelona for Busquets."

"Don't believe a single word he says!"

Pat Rice understood what was said and almost laughed out loud.

But he also understood in his heart that Wenger was probably a little nervous now.

Arsenal have the upper hand?
At first glance this is indeed the case.

Isn't it just that the ball possession rate is a little higher?
Is there any truly threatening attack?

No!
This is the most dangerous thing and what the head coach is most reluctant to see.

Especially when facing a team like Bayswater Chinese.

As long as you are not careful and reveal a little flaw, the opponent may score at any time.

This is very fatal for Arsenal!

But now, it is basically impossible to get Wenger's team to retreat.

Wenger can no longer retreat.

"Benzema has no advantage against Pepe and Jose Fonte. How about letting Van Persie move forward as well?" suggested Pat Rice.

Van Persie also has strong center ability and is very good at holding the ball with his back to the goal.

Letting him go forward can improve Arsenal's ability to get the ball in the frontcourt.

Just as Wenger was hesitating, a cry of surprise suddenly broke out from the already deafening noise of the Emirates Stadium.

Wenger suddenly raised his head and saw that the right-back Sagna made a straight pass to the front court.

Robin van Persie dropped back to collect the ball, with Ryan Bertrand right behind him.

The Dutchman turned his back to the direction of attack, kicked the ball behind Matuidi on the flank, and turned around to sprint.

Unexpectedly, Ryan Bertrand was well prepared and retreated quickly at the first opportunity.

What's even more terrible is that Matuidi suddenly accelerated, used his body to push away Fabregas who was making a forward run, intercepted Van Persie's pass and passed it to Ryan Bertrand.

Bertrand passed the ball across to Javi Martinez.

The latter passed the ball forward without stopping.

Modric dribbled the ball with both feet before Alexander Song, and passed the Arsenal midfielder who was trying to intercept.

Alexander Song reacted quickly and turned around to chase.

Modric made a timely pass to Carroll's feet near the 30-meter area.

After the England center forward blocked Koscielny with his body, he stopped the ball, turned to the left, and sent a straight pass behind him with his left foot.

The ball followed a diagonal line from the middle of Arsenal's 30-meter area to the left side of the penalty area.

Gallas turned around and chased back desperately, but Gareth Bale was faster than him.

The Welshman used his body to hold Gallas back while rushing towards Arsenal's penalty area and caught up with Carroll's pass.

Gallas was already half a body length behind. The Frenchman knew better than anyone that if Gareth Bale really let him rush over, the ball would be over!

So he used almost all his hands and feet, and except for obvious fouls, he tried almost every trick he could.

Gareth Bale was pulled and tugged by him and finally broke free, but was caught up again immediately.

Just as the Welshman rushed into the left side of the penalty area and was about to lose his balance, Gareth Bale made a cross pass with his left foot and sent the ball to the right side of the penalty spot.

Walcott was like a flash of golden lightning, catching up with Gareth Bale's pass and pushing the ball into the goal guarded by Lloris with his right foot.

The French goalkeeper tried his best to save the ball, but it was still out of reach.

At this time, on the left side of the penalty area, Gareth Bale and Gallas fell into the penalty area at the same time.

"The ball went in!!"

"At the crucial moment, Walcott used a clean shot to penetrate Arsenal's goal!"

"At least half of the credit for this goal goes to Gareth Bale!"

"In fact, from the slow-motion replay, we can clearly see that if Walcott hadn't scored, it would have been a penalty."

"Gallas had already committed a very clear foul, pulling down Gareth Bale twice."

"It has to be said that the Welshman's physical fitness is really strong. No matter how hard Gallas pulled and tugged, he couldn't stop him. Gareth Bale still rushed into Arsenal's penalty area."

"The Chinese from Bayswater scored the first goal in the 18th minute of the first half!"

"The goal came from Walcott."

"1 to 0!"

From the time Van Persie passed the ball to the time Walcott scored, it took only 12 seconds.

Wenger watched the game from the sidelines from start to finish.

He was shocked at first.

My hands involuntarily covered my cheeks and mouth.

His worst fear happened.

Arsenal's attack failed to penetrate the defense of the Bayswater Chinese. Instead, the opponent seized the opportunity and scored a goal through a quick counterattack.

This was the first truly threatening attack by the Bayswater Chinese throughout the game.

Unexpectedly, they seized the opportunity!
Wenger looked helplessly at the Bayswater Chinese players who were celebrating wildly on the field, and he felt depressed.

He repeatedly stressed the need to pay attention, but mistakes still occurred.

What made him even more depressed was, who could he blame?

Obviously everyone worked so hard.

……

After the Chinese from Bayswater scored the first goal, Arsenal began to increase their offensive efforts.

Playing at home, the Gunners have no way out.

But the tactics of the Chinese in Bayswater were simple and practical.

Yang Cheng's tactics were mainly defensive, while when counterattacking, he took advantage of Carroll's big body and high ball advantage, while bringing out the speed of Gareth Bale and Walcott.

These three players caused a lot of headaches for Arsenal's midfield and backcourt players.

There's really no good trick.

From the 20th minute, Arsenal tried to create an offside trap, but the forward line was too big.

Just three minutes later, Walcott successfully made an offside move and dribbled the ball straight into the Arsenal penalty area.

Fortunately, Koscielny chased back in time and blocked Walcott outside the penalty area, forcing the little tiger to dribble the ball into the right side and then pass it in front of the goal.

Carroll's header was caught by Lloris.

Although they failed to score, it still made everyone at Arsenal break out in a cold sweat.

They have to reconsider whether offside can work.

With the speed of Walcott and Gareth Bale, as well as the two kids' ability to penetrate and their awareness of positioning, is it really reliable to create offside?
On one side, they have to be wary of the counterattack of the Chinese in Bayswater, and on the other side, they have to find a way to break through the opponent's defense. The embarrassing situation of the Gunners can be imagined.

After taking the lead, the Chinese in Bayswater executed their tactics more resolutely.

There is a piece of data that can reflect the game situation very well.

By the 40th minute, the Gunners had 61% possession of the ball.

But they only had 2 shots.

Yes, the Gunners only had two shots in the first 40 minutes, and neither of them was on target.

On the contrary, the Chinese players from Bayswater made four shots in the first half, two of which were on target.

Both sides obviously played very cautiously, restraining their opponents in a targeted manner and not daring to give them the slightest chance.

Especially the Bayswater Chinese.

The targeted defense was very successful.

Especially the left side, which was considered a weak link by many before the game.

Ryan Bertrand did not make any obvious mistakes, his defense was very good, he was fast and had good footwork.

The performance of the young left-back was average.

Even when defending, he is slightly better than Marcelo.

At the very least, physical confrontation and speed are advantages.

In the end, Bayswater Chinese ended the first half with a 1-0 lead thanks to Walcott's goal.

……

“We did a good job in the first half!”

Yang Cheng returned to the locker room and grinned at the players.

He let everyone see how satisfied he was with the first half of the game.

"Especially our midfield and backcourt. If we beat Arsenal today, all of you will be credited!"

Yang Cheng's words made the midfielders and backcourt players, including Jose Fonte, feel very satisfied.

Yang Cheng actually treated old officials like Jose Fonte and Lambert with special favor.

They all have one thing in common: their strength is limited, but they have followed Bayswater Chinese all the way from the lower leagues to the present.

Needless to say, Lambert joined the team in 03 and was considered the earliest player under Yang Cheng.

Jose Fonte joined the team a little later, but also in 04.

The Portuguese's nickname in the locker room is political commissar, who specializes in ideological work.

Over the years, even though he lost his main position, he has always been the team's vice-captain.

He is responsible for almost all the work of integrating the players into the team.

To some extent, Jose Fonte is Yang Cheng's grasp in the locker room.

There is another characteristic of these two players that makes Yang Cheng very satisfied, that is, they are both very low-key.

Losing the main position?

Sometimes you may not even be able to play in a game for a long time?
But they still work diligently, willingly and conscientiously, and they always maintain their good condition.

They are always available when the team needs them.

Lambert is the most typical example.

Jose Fonte actually had quite a few opportunities to play.

Yang Cheng was unwilling to let such loyal followers leave the team easily.

"This is our ball possession data in the first half."

Yang Cheng directly posted the ball possession time in the first half on the tactical board.

"In the first half, Arsenal had 61 per cent possession and 43 per cent of the time the ball was on our side."

In Yang Cheng's diagram, the stadium is divided into three parts: the Arsenal area, the midfield and the Bayswater Chinese area.

30% are in the midfield, with the Arsenal area accounting for 27%.

It is obvious from this data that the gunmen were basically besieging the Chinese in Bayswater.

Of course, this 43% does not mean that Arsenal had the ball all the time. "But they only had two shots in the first half, none of which were on target."

"This is enough to prove that with the Gunners' defense and their skilled passing and cutting, our defense was very good and even seamless, and we didn't give them any chances!"

The players, especially those in the midfield and backcourt, were very proud when they saw the data and heard Yang Cheng's words.

This is the result of their efforts in the first half!
“The situation will definitely change in the second half.”

Yang Cheng slowly walked in front of the players, appearing extremely confident.

Not just because the team is leading now.

More importantly, he wants to pass on confidence to every player.

"Arsenal will definitely make adjustments, and I guess they will take one of the double defensive midfielders, most likely Gourcuff, let Fabregas retreat, play back to 442, and push Van Persie to the front line."

In fact, in the first half, Van Persie led the Arsenal front line for a long time.

But in this case, there would be no one on the right side.

Therefore, Yang Cheng is certain that Wenger will make substitutions.

It is hard to say the exact time of the replacement.

"If Wenger wants to be safe, it should be between 55 and 60 minutes."

"But if he was more aggressive, he would make the substitution earlier, even in the middle of the game."

Everyone nodded.

No one can accurately capture the decision of the opposing head coach, and can only rely on guessing.

"For us, it doesn't matter how Arsenal make substitutions. What matters is that they won't be conservative in the second half!"

"so……"

Yang Cheng waved his hand, and Brian Kidd behind him took down the data chart that had just been posted, and replaced it with the matchup chart that Yang Cheng had written long ago.

"We must launch a resolute attack at the beginning of the second half!"

All the players' eyes lit up.

The Chinese in Bayswater are best at attacking.

But in the first half, the team retreated very early and didn't even have a decent attack.

"Our strategy in the second half was still to focus on high balls, taking advantage of the physical strengths of Gareth Bale and Carroll."

"Especially Carol!"

Carol is very young, but Yang Cheng found it easy to use him and got the hang of it quickly.

Moreover, with excellent teammates around him, he can basically play to his strengths.

For example, now, Yang Cheng’s requirement for him is to compete for the header.

Either score a goal yourself or pass the ball to your teammates.

“So, Gareth and Theo, you should try to move to the flanks and get closer to the penalty area.”

"The two full-backs need to be bolder and press forward. If there is a chance, pass the ball high into the penalty area and look for Carroll!"

Yang Cheng’s tactics are so simple, direct and brutal.

Carroll doesn't even need to think about anything else. He just needs to know that he is responsible for competing for the high ball.

“The start of the second half was important.”

"I want you to try your best to keep Arsenal in their area for at least 10 minutes, completely disrupt their rhythm, and even score a goal!"

"Can it be done?"

"can!"

"no problem!"

The players all responded in unison.

……

As soon as the referee Andrew Marina blew the whistle, the Gunners players noticed something was wrong.

The Chinese players of Bayswater who chose to retreat in the first half took advantage of Arsenal's serve and pressed forward on all three lines.

They are no strangers to Yang Cheng's team.

This is the signal to attack!
Wenger also signaled to his players to be careful on the sidelines.

If it were under normal circumstances, Wenger would consider letting the players stay out of the spotlight for the time being and avoid a direct confrontation with the Chinese in Bayswater.

The tip of the needle against the wheat awn?
In European football, there are really few teams that dare to do what the Chinese in Bayswater do.

But now, Wenger can no longer care about these.

He needs a goal!
So he made the first substitution at half-time, with Aaron Lennon replacing Gourcuff.

After the substitution, Van Persie moved to the front line and formed a double striker with Benzema.

The midfield became Arshavin, Alexander Song, Fabregas and Aaron Lennon.

Among them, Arshavin and Aaron Lennon are both positioned forward, more like wingers.

Wenger brought on Lennon, still wanting to take advantage of his speed and use him to attack Ryan Bertrand.

But the Chinese in Bayswater ignored the Gunners' substitutions and launched a massive attack.

As soon as the ball was lost, they immediately launched a counterattack in the frontcourt.

When the Bayswater Chinese launched an attack, the pressure they put on their opponents was so great that any team, even Barcelona, ​​would have to choose to temporarily avoid it.

In the 49th minute, Gareth Bale sprinted forward on the left to chase the ball, but Sagna got there first and knocked the ball out of bounds.

Bayswater Chinese won a throw-in in the frontcourt.

Ryan Bertrand ran over, picked up the football from the ground, and threw it to Gareth Bale in front of him with both hands.

The Welshman chested the ball and passed it back to Bertrand, who was facing Fabregas when he received the ball.

Bertrand kicked the ball directly to the bottom line, then he accelerated to catch up and made a cross.

Bertrand did a good job in the previous series of handling, but he didn't grasp the landing point of the final cross.

Koscielny got the first step and headed the ball out.

Rakitic ran all the way back and headed the ball to Javi Martinez before Van Persie could.

The Spaniard stopped the ball with his right foot, moved sideways to the middle, and kicked it to Pepe.

The back line of the Chinese players in Bayswater had already crossed the center line. Pepe stopped the ball in front of him and chased after it.

Benzema chased after Pepe immediately, but Pepe suddenly accelerated and dribbled the ball diagonally to the right.

Without waiting for Benzema to get close, Pepe passed the ball to Piszczek.

The Pole turned his back to the right sideline, stopped the ball towards the ribs, passed it to Modric, and accelerated forward.

Arshavin first followed Piszczek back to defense, and when he got close to Modric, he moved to the middle, trying to cooperate with Alexander Song to snatch the ball from Modric's feet.

But no one expected that Modric suddenly sent a diagonal pass before the two defensive players formed a double-team.

The football was passed diagonally from the ribs to the outside right corner of the penalty area, just passing between Arshavin and Alexander Song.

After Piszczek bypassed Arshavin, he quickly cut forward and caught up with Modric's pass.

The Polish full-back stopped, looked up at the penalty area, and sent a high diagonal pass with his right foot.

The ball went from the right corner of the penalty area to the center of the small penalty area line.

At almost the same time, Carroll, who had been lying in ambush in the penalty area, waiting for his teammate to pass the ball, took a step forward, jumped from behind Gallas, and headed the ball towards Piszczek's cross.

The ball hit Carroll's head, turned in another direction, and fell directly to the left side of the goal.

Goalkeeper Lloris was standing on the right side and tried his best to dive to the side.

But where can I get it?

The ball went straight into the Gunners' goal.

"The ball went in!!!"

"The Chinese in Bayswater's attack once again opened Arsenal's goal!"

“Only 4 minutes in the second half!”

"Arsenal's defense has a flaw again!"

“It’s still a deadly high ball!”

"Gallas couldn't stop the big and strong Carroll at all and he watched helplessly as the England centre-forward scored over his head."

"This is really unexpected!"

"After the second half, the Bayswater Chinese, who were in a passive situation in the first half, unexpectedly took the initiative and scored in just 4 minutes!"

"This is a contest between famous coaches!"

"Yang Cheng's opening attack once again worked wonders!"

"Wenger's defense was ultimately unable to stop the Bayswater Chinese attack."

"2 to 0!"

"Bayswater Chinese further expanded the score!"

……

Re-opening.

When the Gunners served again, they found that the Chinese in Bayswater were still putting pressure on them relentlessly.

If the Bayswater Chinese in the first half were like a salted fish lying flat, then their London rivals in the second half were like a hungry tiger coming down the mountain.

This made Arsenal players very uncomfortable.

But they were still unwilling.

Taking the initiative in the fight, but conceding 2 goals in a row, is it really true that the Gunners are not good at fighting against strong opponents?

The Gunners took the initiative to attack several times in a row, but they were still unable to break through, and couldn't even get through the midfield.

Bayswater Chinese's counterattack after losing the ball in the frontcourt, as well as their pressing pressure in the midfield and frontcourt, almost suffocated Arsenal.

In the 56th minute, when Arshavin on the left was about to cross the center line, he was intercepted by Modric near the center line.

The Russian Tsar tripped Modric when he was counterattacking.

Modric grabbed Arshavin's hand, climbed up from the grass, positioned the ball, and quickly took a free kick.

Piszczek sprinted forward along the right side, but was blocked by Clichy and the ball went out of bounds.

Another foul ball.

Piszczek ran over and quickly threw the ball to Modric.

The Croatian blocked Arshavin with his body, stopped the ball with his chest, and then dribbled it skillfully with his feet, trying to move forward.

Clichy was afraid that Modric would make a breakthrough, so he rushed over to intercept him immediately.

Modric made a straight pass to Piszczek next to Clichy.

Piszczek stopped the ball behind Clichy with his right foot, chased after him, and made a cross without thinking.

There was a bang at the scene, and the ball was passed to the front point from the right sideline of the penalty area.

And, another high ball!
Almost at the same time, Carroll sprinted at top speed.

He is like a giant bear from Siberia. How can William Gallas, who is 1 meters tall and weighs only 81 kilograms, stop this rampaging monster?

Carroll was seen rushing to the right corner of Arsenal's small penalty area, jumping high, like pulling up an onion in dry land, heading the ball directly towards Piszczek's cross, and slamming the ball into the lower right corner of Arsenal's goal.

Goalkeeper Lloris was standing on the right side this time, but Carroll's header was so fast and sharp, and it went down into the goal, so he stretched out his hand to block it, but failed to stop anything.

The ball hit the Arsenal goal again.

3 is better than 0!

Scored twice!

It was not until this moment that the exclamations of Gunners fans were heard again at the Emirates Stadium!

"It's so shocking!"

"my God!"

"Andy Carroll at this moment is like the soul of Drogba possessed by the Beast!"

"I simply don't know how to describe this feeling. Galas seems so small and humble in front of him!"

“He’s like the king of the sky!”

"These two headers showed us the great power of Andy Carroll!"

"He's 1 meters tall, weighs 91 kilograms, and he's only 83 years old!"

"But at this moment Andy Carroll has demonstrated unparalleled deterrence!"

"And, so far this season, he has scored eight goals!"

"9 goals in 8 league games, this is incredible!"

"We have no doubt that in time, Andy Carroll will become a super center forward who is no less powerful than Drogba!"

"We have to feel sorry for Newcastle here."

"This Magpies team, which is in deep financial trouble, actually let such an aerial king go for a mere £300 million!"

"We'd like to know, what do the Magpies fans think now?"

……

When Carroll scored two consecutive goals against Arsenal, the game was decided.

After Yang Cheng attacked for more than ten minutes and scored two goals, taking a 2-3 lead, he immediately made a substitution.

He needs to save his energy for next Wednesday's trip to the Bernabeu.

So, the Bayswater Chinese returned to the defensive counterattack style of the first half.

Wenger's team launched a crazy counterattack, and in the 69th minute, taking advantage of the defensive problems exposed by the continuous substitutions of the Chinese in Bayswater, Benzema dribbled into the penalty area and was tripped by Pepe.

Yellow card plus penalty!
Marina's decision caused strong dissatisfaction among Yang Cheng. He was furious on the sidelines and pointed at Marina and cursed him, thinking that he deliberately helped Arsenal score a goal.

This left the referee speechless.

He ran to the sidelines and sternly "warned" Yang Cheng.

"It was such an obvious foul, it was right in front of me, how could it be a misjudgment?" Marina almost cried.

This damn referee is just a punching bag!
Whether it makes sense or not, just curse the referee first!

You guys, a bunch of famous coaches, do you still have any sense of reason?
Seeing how angry he was, Yang Cheng felt too embarrassed to say anything. He smiled, patted Marina on the shoulder, and turned around to walk back.

"I'm not as shameless as Ferguson. I haven't mastered my skills yet!"

The Gunners captain Fabregas took the penalty kick and scored in one go, successfully pulling one back.

1 is better than 3!

Wenger then made a series of substitutions.

Even Alexander Song was substituted and replaced by Nasri to further strengthen the attack in the frontcourt.

Therefore, the last 20 minutes of the game were basically under Arsenal's control.

But the Chinese in Bayswater also defended well.

In the end, Bayswater Chinese beat Arsenal 3-1 away with Carroll's two goals.

Yang Cheng could almost conclude that tomorrow's British media, no, the English media all over the world, would report on Carol in great detail.

This 20-year-old center forward is about to become popular again!

……

"You are courting death!"

After the press conference, Yang Cheng was invited to Wenger's office.

As soon as they met, Yang Cheng couldn't help but step on Wenger a little more when he saw him with a bitter look on his face.

He didn't know why, but when he saw Wenger's submissive look, he couldn't help but feel his feet itchy.

"To be honest, if you had focused on defense in this game, we would have had a headache, but you chose to attack, so you can't blame me." Yang Cheng won with confidence.

Wenger smiled bitterly and sighed, "I also want to win a strong match."

"Then look at Manchester United. Ferguson is much smarter than you. Whether it was the first round against us or the game against you, he chose to defend and counterattack."

Yang Cheng can actually understand Wenger's thoughts.

The Chinese at Bayswater have to be distracted by the Champions League match against Real Madrid next Wednesday, but Arsenal don't.

But in fact, after two weeks of national team training, the Gunners players are not in particularly good shape.

For example, Benzema and Van Persie had little chance in front of the Chinese defense at Bayswater.

Arshavin even traveled a long distance back to his country and tried his best to fight for the qualification for the World Cup in South Africa. He also lost his sharpness in dribbling the ball several times today.

After all, Wenger is somewhat of a literary youth.

This is a disease, it must be cured!

Wenger was obviously unwilling to talk more about this matter.

If you lose, you lose. The key is to see the next game.

But Yang Cheng has a feeling that the Gunners still have some serious problems with their defense.

In other words, Wenger still hasn't solved Arsenal's offense-defense transition problem.

Also, the Gunners players lack cohesion.

"If you ask me, you are now wealthy and powerful, so you should stop being so calculating and stingy as before."

Yang Cheng won the game on someone else's turf, so of course he didn't mind comforting him and giving him some advice.

"You mean, about Fabregas?"

"Yes, cut the Gordian knot and make a decision when necessary. Don't drag it out and affect the team's morale!"

Yang Cheng said it very straightforwardly.

Anyway, Fabregas is not his player, so what is there to be afraid of?

"Barcelona really did not act right in this matter. Every time the national team went back to play, they would try every means to seduce me and cause trouble every time. If it were me, I would have taught them a lesson long ago."

Just before this game, Wenger accused Barcelona in the media of seducing Fabregas.

It's really an injustice.

Fabregas came from Barcelona and wanted to go back.

What about Wenger?
No matter how hard they tried to keep her, they just couldn't resist the temptations of this scumbag from Barcelona.

Didn't he understand that the more Wu Dalang begged in a cowardly manner, the more Pan Jinlian hoped to have an affair, and the more Ximen Qing liked to flirt with her?
At this time, Wu Dalang should have just closed the door, released Wu Song, and overturned the table!
If it really doesn't work, we can just state the conditions and get divorced right away, and be done with it once and for all.

"If it were you, what would you do?" Wenger asked humbly.

Yang Cheng thought about it for a while and said with a smile: "It's simple. I will offer Fabregas a high weekly salary, at least 20 pounds, which is also the highest salary in the team, to show my sincerity and ask him directly, do you want to sign?"

"20 pounds?" Wenger was surprised.

"Look at you. You have a wealthy boss behind you. What are you afraid of with 20 pounds?"

Anyway, it’s not the money we Chinese in Bayswater are spending, so I’m even less afraid.

"If Fabregas is willing to sign, then everything will be fine. If he is not willing to sign, then he will be put on the bench."

"Although he is a main player, your midfield is full of talents now, so it doesn't matter if he is missing."

"Then we'll confront Barcelona and ask them to make an offer!"

At this point, Yang Cheng glanced at the hesitant Wenger and sighed, "If you were more decisive, you would have a better chance of keeping him."

"Fabregas must be hesitant too. He may not really want to return to Barcelona."

"Don't forget, there are Xavi and Iniesta there, Barcelona doesn't need him as a midfielder!"

Whenever a professional player said how loyal he was to a certain club, Yang Cheng would never believe it.

In professional football, the premise of player loyalty is that the club can satisfy the interests they want.

This benefit may not necessarily be money, it may also be fame, fortune, or something else.

"Sign the contract, renew the contract, and everything will be over!"

As long as Fabregas is willing to renew his contract, a transfer to Barcelona will be impossible.

By then, Barcelona will stop pestering.

Because it's meaningless.

Now Barcelona is persisting, and the bottom line is that Fabregas himself is hesitant and wants to go back.

Wenger is now in a state of confusion!

"Okay, let's study it further!"

As he spoke, Wenger raised the glass in his hand, clinked it to Yang Cheng, and said thank you.

"Don't just say thank you." Yang Cheng laughed.

"My future father-in-law is your fan. I heard that you have a collection of fine wines, all of which are rare wines from your famous French winery. You gave a box to Ferguson before, so why not give me a few boxes too?"

How many boxes?

Wenger's mouth twitched and he almost spit out a mouthful of wine.

Do you really think my family runs a winery?
I bought all of them through my friends.

I'll just give Ferguson one box, why are you asking for several boxes?
But for some reason, Yang Cheng just helped to come up with an idea, and at this moment, Wenger couldn't say a word of refusal.

But he knew it very clearly in his heart.

This little bastard is just bullying honest people!
Damn, if you have the guts, why don’t you go ask Ferguson for a few boxes of his home-grown cellar stuff and try?
I’ll be surprised if that bastard old man doesn’t beat you to death!
"Okay, I'll ask you to deliver it to you later." Wenger agreed.

Yang Cheng achieved his goal and stood up to leave with a smile.

"Oh, by the way, you have to be careful when we play Chelsea in the 14th round. If we lose again..."

Yang Cheng stopped there.

It would be best if Arsenal could beat Chelsea, which would be most beneficial for the Chinese in Bayswater!
