The winter transfer window has opened, and Tottenham did not buy anyone this winter. The fans also understand very well, because now this Tottenham team does not need a newcomer who came in winter to share the victory.
Zheng Zhi successfully joined Charlton and won the trust of the head coach. According to Charlton's local media preview, the newly added Chinese captain may make his debut against Arsenal.
But this is no longer what Wang Xiaodong and the Tottenham players are concerned about.
Entering the new year, Tottenham, which has only lost one game in the league, is on the fast track, taking into account all competitions and ranking among the best.
After defeating Portsmouth in the league, Tottenham visited Cardiff City Stadium to usher in the team's first FA Cup game of the season.
Counting previous events, Tottenham are now fighting on the fourth front.
Martin Joel's decision-making came into play here.
In the absence of Wang Xiaodong, veteran Davis protected Tottenham's midfield well.
Davis can be said to be an "enhanced" version of Wang Xiaodong in terms of "attributes". Except for his lack of physical strength and height, Davis can complete Wang Xiaodong's tasks on both offense and defense.
It is every club's luck that such a veteran is willing to come off the bench.
In the third round of the FA Cup, which was played home and away, Tottenham advanced to the next round with a 4-0 score over two legs.
Tottenham's attacking firepower made the whole of England fearful. With Bell's excellent performance on the left wing, his position gradually moved forward.
In the atmosphere of the team's great progress, Tottenham Hotspur in the league won Newcastle at home with a score of 3-2.
"Charming Brother" Berbatov opened the scoring for the home team with a header, and then Bale's left-footed volley expanded the score.
Although the Magpies once leveled the score with goals from Dier and Martins, Wang Xiaodong's shot in front of the goal before the end made Newcastle's revenge completely in vain.
Four days later, in the 24th round of the league, Tottenham was tied with Fulham away from home.
Although Wang Xiaodong was running all over the court, he always made assists to the opponent's penalty area.
But Fulham was determined to maintain the tie. From the beginning, they put on full defense and took every point they could get. Facing the opponent's turtle shell, Tottenham failed to break through it after 80 minutes of attack.
In the 83rd minute, Wang Xiaodong fired a powerful shot from outside the penalty area. The ball hit the Fulham defender's waist and changed direction. The home team's goalkeeper only lightly touched the ball, but the crisis was not completely resolved.
At the critical moment, Berba, who rushed to the goal, stretched out his kick and pushed the ball into the goal.
1-0, Tottenham finally took the lead in the away game.
Just when all the fans of the visiting team thought they had a chance to win, Bugas and Rocchi jointly made a successful return on the right side of Tottenham's half. Rocky intercepted the ball and made a pass. Forward Clichy missed the ball in the middle. Heinze got ahead of Ledley King from a distance and scored from a small angle.
In the final moments of the game, the home team turned Tottenham's three points into one.
...
As the team's recent results are getting better and better, scoring goals in almost every game, this kind of offensive football has countless fans, and Bai Baihe has attracted many fans around the world.
Of course, most of these fans come from as far away as China.
According to Tottenham's backstage, hundreds of fans from the East register on the official website every day and become new members of the club.
Looking at the growing numbers, Danni Levi even felt a little dizzy.
With such a huge influence, maybe we can compete with those traditional giants in England!
For example, Manchester United, the Red Devils with the largest fan base in the Premier League, claims to have 100 million fans worldwide.
But is it really that?
How many people are there in England?
Everyone knows that China accounts for the largest number of Manchester United fans in the world because there are countless fans there.
At the turn of the century, Manchester United attracted a wave of fans in China with the Champions League. Manchester United does have such strength.
But now, Tottenham has an absolute main player like Wang Xiaodong, and Chinese fans are beginning to fade away the red and wear Bai Baihe's team uniforms.
Seeing such data, Tottenham's top management raised his eyebrows.
"We can use Dong as the main force, but do you dare to list Dong as the starter?"
Tottenham officials acted very quickly. In line with the principle of doing as the locals do, they opened their own official accounts on major portals in China.
Especially with the blog, after becoming a fan of Wang Xiaodong, hundreds of thousands of netizens instantly joined and became loyal fans of Tottenham.
For this reason, Tottenham's team manager also specifically ordered Wang Xiaodong to post updates online whenever he had nothing to do, and visit the team's official website to interact with the fans.
When receiving this task, Wang Xiaodong was completely confused.
"What should I send?"
"Dong, you just need to post your daily routine online." The club manager said.
"Daily life? My daily life is to eat, sleep, play football, and masturbate...well, I don't need to do this myself..."
"It's okay, Dong, these are your daily lives! As long as you put these online, the fans will like it. Think about it, your compatriots are not like the fans at White Hart Lane, they can't see you Daily training. You show your real life to the other party, and they will be satisfied.”
"In that case, okay, let me give it a try."
In this way, with Wang Xiaodong updating three status posts every day, the first "Internet celebrity" was born.
...
After playing Fulham, Tottenham will face another fierce battle.
For the team, this is a game that cannot be lost.
Another round of North London derby!
After teaching the Gunners a lesson last time in the league, Arsenal are sharpening their knives and ready for revenge at any time.
Before the game, Professor Wenger also threatened to boost morale: "We are fully prepared and have found a way to deal with Tottenham and Winter."
"This time, we will wash away the humiliation with victory! I will let everyone know that the sky in the North London Derby is still red!"
Faced with the professor's provocation, Martin Joel was not to be outdone.
"Red? Stop joking!"
"If it's really red, it's dyed red with Arsenal's blood."
"If I were Wenger, I would definitely focus on fighting for the top four in the league instead of investing in the League Cup."
"Just wait, Arsenal will definitely ruin the entire season because of this wrong decision!"
Martin Joel is right. So far this season, Arsenal has not even made the top four. Now raising bets in the League Cup, which is usually not taken seriously, is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse.
But in fact, whether it is the league or the League Cup, the sanctity of the North London derby cannot be violated.
Before the game even started, fans from both sides were already yelling at each other.
In this heated atmosphere, this season's Premier League ushered in the second round of the North London Derby.
