Chapter 120 Wenger's Notepad

Time is like the ticking of a clock, you can hear it, but you can't stop it.

In the blink of an eye.

The Premier League match day arrived.

Stamford Bridge is no longer a quiet library, with an average attendance rate of 99.78%, second only to West Ham United's home ground - the London Stadium.

"Lee!!!"

"Lee!!!"

"What are you shouting? Lee is resting today!"

The die-hard fans in the North Stand were shouting Li Kang's name like crazy, a scene of uproar.

Blue flags fluttered in the wind.

This area is also known as the "Matthew Harding Stand."

It is to commemorate Matthew Harding, the club executive who died in the 1996 air crash.

In 2006, after Chelsea defended their Premier League title, Mourinho threw the championship medal onto this stand to thank the fans for their support.

Li Kang was in casual clothes, sitting in the stands with several main teammates.

Diego Costa took advantage of Azar's inattention and secretly lifted the latter's trouser leg.

Azar quickly retracted his foot and punched him.

The Chelsea striker has a well-known quirk: he likes to pluck other people's leg hair.

Rudiger was a little worried: "This game is a bit uncertain."

Cahill waved his hand: "Relax, we have to trust Morata, that kid has had plenty of rest and is in great shape."

Li Kang nodded in agreement.

The system prompt sounded quietly.

[Ding, task triggered: The Blues and the Gunners.]

[Task introduction: Both sides have rotated their lineups in preparation for the second leg of the Champions League! But this game is destined to be not dull, there are still a group of excellent players who will prove themselves in the Premier League arena, Tuchel and Enrique, the Blues and the Gunners, the battle of famous coaches, the battle of Tianwangshan, the decisive battle at the top!]

[Task reward: Arsenal Legend · Black Iron Treasure Chest.]

Li Kang: "..."

How could it be Black Iron?

Is the difficulty comparable to facing a League One team in the FA Cup?

When he saw the starting lineup displayed on the Led screen in mid-air, he still didn't understand.

Buffon suddenly reached out and touched the back of Li Kang's head, and smiled: "Don't think too much, as a spectator, you should enjoy the game."

Kant quickly echoed.

Fabregas was not sitting with the others, he was accompanying his wife, who was 12 years older than him, and his stepdaughter, who was 12 years younger than him, in the VIP box.

Chelsea fans in front of the TV were disheartened when they saw a group of main players gathered in the stands.

"Ctv5! Ctv5! Good evening, audience friends."

"Now we are broadcasting the focus battle of the Premier League for you."

"Chelsea host Arsenal at home."

"Both teams are experiencing cruel and arduous multi-line battles, and both have made large-scale personnel rotations in this game."

"Now I will introduce the starting lineup of both sides for you."

"Chelsea's formation is 3-4-3!"

"Goalkeeper: Caballero."

"..."

"Arsenal's formation is 4-3-3!"

"Goalkeeper: Martinez."

"I believe that most fans' memories of this Argentine goalkeeper remain in that 7:5 goal battle!"

The referee team led the players from both sides onto the green field.

Stamford Bridge suddenly set off a wave of cheers.

Martinez looked at Morata provocatively and made a strange gesture with his hands.

Morata glanced at it and ignored it.

Understandable.

Most of the players cultivated by Argentina's local youth training are of this style after stepping onto the green field, not all, but "most".

The influence of the environment.

It doesn't contain malice, it's more of a means to interfere with the opponent's emotions.

Let me give you an example.

Brazil National Youth vs Argentina National Youth.

Just because a Brazilian youngster said, "We want to win the championship."

He was considered a provocation by the Argentine youngsters, and then they beat the Brazilian youngster.

That's the style.

The Argentine women's football team also often fights, and several people are hospitalized at every turn.

Live broadcast room.

-

[Chelsea is finished, Martinez is Argentina's genius goalkeeper, he will definitely shut out Morata.]

-

[7:5, 6:2, 4:0, 0:7 Sheffield Wednesday, Rotherham, Wolves said this genius goalkeeper is great.]

-

[He is more suitable for teams with a low defensive style, with a small coverage area, poor ball-handling ability, and not suitable for Enrique's high defense line adjusted this season.]

-

[Let me say a fair word, this youngster doesn't have many opportunities to play for Arsenal, most of the teams he has been loaned to are of the low defensive style, the tactical environment has made him grow into this type of goalkeeper, his ability is already very good, there is no need to demand too much.]

-

[The change in the team's defensive focus has a profound impact on the growth of a goalkeeper.]

-

[He suffered from the club's tactical transformation.]

-

[In the Ajax documentary, the youth training coach asked the young goalkeepers to watch the long pass highlights of Alisson, Neuer, Ederson, and Courtois]

Tuchel gave Dino the on-site command of this game.

The little assistant coach was excited when he stood in the command area.

He likes to read biographies of famous coaches: at this moment, he can't help but compare himself to Mourinho and Tuchel to Van Gaal.

The media reporters were a little confused: They said it was Tuchel vs. Enrique... a battle of famous coaches, but they sent an assistant coach to command?

On the other side.

Enrique was calm and confident.

The disabled Chelsea is just a dish in his eyes.

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The game officially started.

Arsenal has the ball.

Giroud kicks off and passes back to Xhaka.

The ball rolls quickly on the grass.

The Gunners' overall formation moved forward quickly.

"Enrique wants to grab a good start."

"The overall defensive focus is very forward."

"The main center-back - Koscielny is injured, this is a big hidden danger."

"Judging from Martinez's position, he doesn't seem to fit the high defensive line very well."

Dino waved his hands frantically, directing the Blues' midfield players to put pressure on them.

Not afraid of being penetrated.

Arsenal's backcourt simply doesn't have the ability to pass the ball.

In the 2017-18 season of the Premier League, if you want to arrange a high defensive line, then the goalkeeper must participate in the advancing task.

Can't participate?

Then it is destined to be pressed by the opposite side without thinking.

Martinez was a little annoyed.

He is not stupid, and he also has the ability to command the "low defensive line".

But now he is asked to expand his range of activities and participate in the backcourt passing control system... it is really too difficult.

How to undertake the advancing task of the goalkeeper?

Morata, William, and Pedro on the opposite side are like mad dogs.

"Holding's pass has an error! This is playing with fire!"

"William steals!"

"Pass to Morata!"

"One-on-one!"

Forty-meter area.

After Morata got the ball, he rode away.

Martinez quickly adjusted his position... vaguely remembering that year's 7:5.

Absolutely, absolutely can't return to Argentina without any achievement.

Too slow.

In the blink of an eye.

Morata has already reached the thirty-meter area, dashing past the Arsenal goalkeeper.

Stamford Bridge, the Gunners fans who traveled with the team couldn't help but let out a burst of lamentation.

In sight, the Chelsea striker is unstoppable.

"Isn't he going to shoot yet?"

"Empty goal!"

"Beautiful!"

"The ball is in!"

"Morata brought the ball to the six-yard box and pushed the empty goal to score!"

"He didn't choose to celebrate after breaking the goal of his old club!"

Morata raised his hands and refused to celebrate.

The Blues teammates took turns to hug him.

On the other side.

Martinez slumped on the grass, he had been complaining that Arsenal didn't give him a chance, and even expressed his dissatisfaction in front of the media.

In fact, Wenger gave him many opportunities.

Even if he has been sitting on the bench and being loaned out in recent years, Arsenal has borne all the wages.

Even if he has been sitting on the bench and being loaned out in recent years, Arsenal has borne all the wages.

The weekly salary starts at 20,000 pounds.

Increase year by year.

If this account is calculated, it will be a loss-making business if it cannot be sold for 20 million euros in return.

Holding looked guilty and raised his hand to signal an apology to his teammates.

Enrique stood on the sidelines and roared loudly, pointing out the positioning problems of his disciples in the high defensive line.

Dino didn't celebrate for too long.

He turned and ran to Tuchel and asked.

"Boss, next..."

"Don't ask me, you have to believe in yourself."

Dino couldn't help but feel shocked.

Isn't this the master-disciple dialogue between Mourinho and Van Gaal back then!

In the stands.

Azar and Diego Costa cheered along with the home fans.

Li Kang was slightly surprised.

It is difficult to explain the reward of the Black Iron Treasure Chest with just this goal.

As time went by, the game was full of climaxes.

In the 16th minute.

Elneny launched an attack on the right, attracting Chelsea's defensive strength, bringing the ball into the penalty area, and then returning it to Xhaka outside the penalty area.

Xhaka picks a pass to the front of the goal - the back point position.

Giroud leaps high.

Header to score.

1:1!!!

Enrique raised his arms and cheered.

Four minutes later.

William drove straight in, blasting Arsenal's disabled high defensive line, and sent a cross in the thirty-meter area.

Morata once again shook the goalkeeper and pushed the empty goal to score.

2:1!!!

Non-stop crazy attack.

Martinez stood behind the high defensive line.

The scene of that 7:5 was so clear... gradually, he then recalled the various massacres he experienced in Sheffield Wednesday, Rotherham, and Wolves.

"Sky King covers the Earth Tiger, only my big Giroud!"

"Trailing twice, equalizing twice."

"The Gunners center who never compromises!"

"..."

"Ramsey, the god of death Ramsey!"

"Equalized the score for the third time!"

"The ups and downs of the game! The unyielding Arsenal!"

"The Gunners, never give up."

"..."

"Oh no! Morata has run out of another great opportunity!"

"Pedro didn't pass it."

"Still passed it."

"Rabona!"

"Morata Rabona scores!"

"King of the weak foot!"

"Hat trick!"

The camera occasionally gave shots of Dino and Enrique on the sidelines.

The two commanders stood blankly in their respective command areas.

The ups and downs of the attacking battle made the audience cheer.

Li Kang's God's perspective has long stopped deconstructing.

Can't understand.

This game with complex situations and extremely fast offensive and defensive transition rhythms is really incomprehensible in terms of tactical games.

The ultimate strangulation at the beginning to suppress the high defensive line, the shift of the defensive focus to resolve the pressure, and the defensive contraction to resolve the two-wing cut into the rib area have all disappeared without a trace.

Live broadcast room.

Barrage flying.

-

[So cool!]

-

[I declare that this is the most exciting game in the five major leagues this round, I have seen the tenacious and unyielding spirit in both teams!]

-

[This is the charm of football! Scoring goals is the most exciting thing.]

-

[Super Morata!]

-

[Magic wing William! Demon knife Pedro!]

-

[The god descends to earth Giroud! The god of death Ramsey!]

-

[Don't just pay attention to the scorers, the bench rotation players on both sides are also very awesome, Holding has made up for his mistakes!]

VIP box.

Abramovich looked excited.

He couldn't help but praise: "This little assistant coach Dino seems to be even better than Tuchel!"

Technical director - Cech's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he quickly explained... interspersed with a lot of special terms.

Abramovich was confused, and said calmly:

"I'm just kidding."

"Of course I see through the tactical content of this game!"

In the end.

Beep! Beep beep~

The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Chelsea 6:4 Arsenal.

Stamford Bridge, a sea of joy.

The Gunners fans stayed with them and sang to encourage the Gunners.

Morata embraced the old Arsenal partners one by one.

Enrique also hugged Martinez, like a kind and amiable old father, and comforted him in a low voice: "It's not your problem, it's the problem of the coaching team's defensive focus deployment... adjust your mentality, you are the best."

"Football should not only be about winning or losing, football should be an enjoyment."

Judging by deeds, not by intentions.

This guy is indeed a famous coach in terms of set pieces and motivating players.

After a while.

Post-match press conference.

Enrique said that classic quote again:

"If I choose the roster again, I will remove one of the players."

"Some players' performances are really bad, just a pile of shit."

Gradually.

Dino became the darling of the on-site media.

People praised the little assistant coach's Premier League debut.

"All Arsenal players performed very well, they equalized the score three times."

"Forget about the identity of the rotation players, their fighting spirit on the field has conquered the hearts of the fans!"

Li Kang returned to his residence in the Fulham area accompanied by his little assistant.

I don't know why.

He is a little expectant of the reward of the Black Iron Treasure Chest... even more expectant than the Dark Gold Treasure Chest.

What you have never owned is always the best.

[Ding! Task completed: The Blues and the Gunners.]

[Task receipt: A hearty attacking battle, the brave Giroud, the omnipotent Morata, thank them for bringing a goal feast!]

[Task reward: Arsenal Legend · Black Iron Treasure Chest.]

Li Kang couldn't wait to take a look at the prize pool.

The Black Iron Treasure Chest that he didn't even get in the youth team period!

[Henry's smelly socks.]

[Vieira's expired sausage.]

[Wenger's broken zipper.]

[Bergkamp's hated tuna.]

[.]

What weird rewards?

[The Black Iron Treasure Chest is being opened, congratulations on obtaining: Wenger's Notebook.]

[Effect: None, because it is really just a notebook.]

A yellowed notebook appeared out of thin air in Li Kang's hand.

He opened the first page.

What came into view was a sentence: "If you want to marry Miss World, I can find a way to help you, but if she just doesn't want to marry you, what can I do?"

Turn the page again.

"Everyone thinks their daughter-in-law is the most beautiful."

Continue to flip.

"Once you get used to caviar, it's hard to go back to eating sausages."

"Team spirit is like a flower, you have to take care of it every day, otherwise it will slowly wither."
