Atletico Madrid only entered the Champions League once in 12 years, and were beaten 5-1 by Arsenal.
A little cruel.
But this is football, the strong survive.
After the game, Chen Mo did not fly back to London with the team, but stayed at Aguero's house for a meal.
Of course, it's not just about eating. Aguero is not enough to make Chen Mo change his schedule and stay.
The main reason is that Keli has not returned to Spain for many years. Although the memories left by Spain are not so good for her, and she is now an American citizen, she happened to come to Spain this time and she still wanted to visit.
The younger daughter-in-law has spoken, and the schedule at the beginning of the season is indeed not intensive, so Chen Mo naturally has no reason to refuse.
After having a dinner cooked by the nanny at Aguero's house, the three of them drove out for a drive.
Madrid is the capital of Spain and the largest city in Spain. However, Spain itself is not that big. Madrid’s land area is only 135 times the size of Chongqing, and its population is only a little over 6 million.
The area is not large and the population is not large, so when Chen Mo and two girls were blowing the night breeze at the beach, drinking coconut juice and looking at the stars and the sea, they also met an old acquaintance - Ramos, and interestingly Yes, Ramos also goes shopping with girls.
There is no doubt that when Chen Mo, who was sitting on the bench, and Ramos, who was leading the girl out of the shadow of the swaying tree, looked at each other, both parties were stunned.
To be honest, the relationship between the two has been friends and foes since they were thirteen or fourteen years old. Chen Mo knocked out two teeth of Ramos on the court, and Ramos was also bandaged for a week after Chen Mo hit his chest. However, the two In fact, they both like the opponent's tough style of play.
Even speaking of it, Keli actually knew Ramos. When Chen Mo was playing football in Barcelona U16, Keli often went to the scene to cheer Chen Mo on.
At that time, Keli often called Ramos a dirty dog.
But after the game, when Chen Mo and Ramos were sitting on the sidelines chatting, Keli would always bring a bottle of water for Ramos. She is a very strong person outside, so she also understands Chen Mo and Ramos very well. The feeling between men.
When acquaintances meet, they naturally chat for a long time, talking about all kinds of interesting things in the past few years.
To be honest, Real Madrid's performance in recent years has been very poor, but just looking at Ramos himself, Ramos has actually developed very well. He became the main force in Real Madrid in 2006, scoring ten goals in 66 games in two seasons. The ball is a super strong defender with a knife.
However, although personal development is very good, Real Madrid's current predicament still gives Ramos a headache. After all, it is easy to make people anxious about the future if they cannot win the team honor in the competition. Moreover, after the team let Modric go, , only one Van der Vaart was reinforced in the midfield, and the other signings were still on the striker.
Now Real Madrid's forwards, not to mention wingers, have three shooters, Cristiano Ronaldo, Higuain and Benzema.
Ramos completely cannot understand why the club has so many shooters.
In this regard, Chen Mo just smiled and said that if you want to win the championship, you can come to Arsenal. Arsenal's current right back Zambrotta probably won't be able to play for two years. By then, Ramos can take over and return to his old career as a full-back. .
Such words naturally made Ramos roll his eyes.
In fact, very early on, after Maicon's transfer, Chen Mo recruited Ramos, but Ramos...
Ramos is similar to Ibrahimovic. Arsenal is short of center this summer, and Chen Mo actually recruited Ibrahimovic. It's just that Ibrahimovic, like Ramos, is both a very arrogant and arrogant person. They are not willing to make the decision of "joining if you can't beat him". They all say harshly that they want to kill Chen Mo on the court.
Chen Mo admires and has a headache for Ramos and Ibrahimovic with such tempers. If these two people join Arsenal, Arsenal will take off immediately.
Striker Belyibu Angel.
Midfielder Ma Xiaozhu and Chen Mo.
Defender Marcelo and Ramos.
This is so awesome that the gods are blocking the gods and the Buddhas are blocking the Buddhas.
However, Chen Mo also knew that Ramos would not come to Arsenal.
Not to mention personality, just saying that Ramos is Spanish and is the main player in Real Madrid, it is impossible for Ramos to announce that he wants to leave the team without Real Madrid taking the initiative to release him, unless he does not want to join the Spanish national team. .
After all, it was just a chance encounter, and he had to take a private plane back to London later. Chen Mo didn't chat with Ramos for too long. When saying goodbye, Ramos looked at Yuechi Xun's bulging belly and said it was time to give birth. Also call him during the banquet.
.
I have to say that having a private jet is very convenient.
I was still watching the stars and the sea in Spain at around 8pm, and returned to London at around 11pm.
It was a bit late to get home, but because Keli drank some wine while watching the sea, she was in the mood, so she pestered Chen Mo to give him a favor.
It ended in the middle of the night, I was a little tired, but it didn't have much impact.
After playing against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League group stage, Arsenal's next schedule is the English League Cup quarter-finals.
The quarter-finals sound very important, but in fact neither Chen Mo nor Wenger pay much attention to it because this final is a League of Nations Cup game.
There are four main domestic leagues and cups in the UK: the Premier League, the FA Cup, the Community Shield and the EFL Cup.
Needless to say, the league is a cornerstone.
The FA Cup is a cup competition similar to La Liga's Copa del Rey and Serie A's Coppa Italia. It can be regarded as the most valuable cup competition after the league.
As for the Community Shield, this thing is the league champion versus the FA Cup champion. There is only one game. Moreover, the Community Shield was originally called the FA Charity Cup, but because the FA violated regulations when using the income from the Charity Shield, it was finally changed from the Charity Cup to the Community Shield, which has a very, very low gold content.
As for the final EFL Cup, it was hosted by all teams in the Premier League, English Championship and English League Two.
Although the momentum is huge, because the prize money is not high and the influence is not great, the Premier League giants with a relatively intensive schedule do not pay attention to this competition, and it is mainly used to train newcomers.
Moreover, the opponent in this English League Cup quarter-finals happened to be Sheffield United, whom Arsenal met in the first two rounds of the Premier League.
The game is not crucial, the opponent is not strong, and on the third day after playing Sheffield United, Arsenal will face their opponent in the sixth round of the league, Manchester City, at the Emirates Stadium.
This game is a crucial battle and may even directly affect the final league ranking. Therefore, amid the dissatisfied boos of Sheffield United fans, Wenger still let Chen Mo Di Maria and others sit on the bench. Bench.
No way, although the schedule at the beginning of the season is not too intensive, it is only compared to the devilish schedule in the second half of the Premier League season. In fact, the schedule is similar to other leagues.
And counting the Olympics, Chen Mo and the others have actually not had a break since the Olympics in early August, basically playing every three days.
Two months of accumulation of fatigue may not only cause physical problems for players, but may even lead to injuries, not to mention that Manchester City is a very tough nut to crack.
Sitting on the bench, Henry was secretly using his cell phone to discuss the night's BOSS fight with members of the Warcraft Guild. Chen Mo had not yet reached Henry's retirement age, so even if he did not play, he was still watching the game on the court. form.
Arsenal has left a lot of people this year, including Giroud, Rakitic, Nasri, Clichy, and Alexander Song, all of whom are old acquaintances.
There is no way, mainly because the first four have the ability to start or even play the core role in the upper reaches of the five major leagues, and they are all in their early twenties, which is the age where their goals are rising the fastest.
In this case, neither Giroud nor anyone else is willing to stay at Arsenal as a substitute, or to fight for unstable playing time. As for Alexander Song, this guy is simply short of money. After all, there are more than 200 people in his family. Waiting for him to feed you.
However, they and Arsenal were reunited and separated. They came to Arsenal and won the Champions League. Their popularity and worth skyrocketed, and their future was bright. Arsenal also received nearly 80 million euros in transfer fees from the five of them.
After leaving five players at once, Wenger certainly considered the issue of the bench.
The midfielders currently playing are De Bruyne, who will be loaned to Birmingham after December, Wilshere, who came out of Arsenal's own youth training, and Ramsey, who was introduced from Cardiff City.
This lineup is actually pretty good, but not perfect.
De Bruyne has just switched from winger to attacking midfielder. Although Wilshere is good offensively and defensively, he is only sixteen years old this year. As for Ramsey, this player is also good at both offense and defense, but he is not top-notch.
The biggest problem with this midfield system is that there is no serious midfielder and there are defensive problems. However, after all, it is a substitute lineup, so the requirements do not need to be too high, and the opponent is not strong.
With Chen Mo paying attention while chatting with Henry, Arsenal actually played pretty well throughout the first half.
Although defense is prone to problems, on the offensive end, the midfielder can still firmly control the ball at his own feet.
Moreover, what’s interesting is that maybe it’s because his teammates are not Chen Mo, Beldi Maria and the others. In this game, Lewandowski was in better shape than before. He also played more actively, confidently and aggressively. Chen Mo couldn’t help but watch on the sidelines. nod.
To be honest, from a stylistic point of view, Lewandowski is indeed very suitable for the current Arsenal.
Although Arsenal also controls the ball, it is not like Barcelona that emphasizes midfield control, and the center has to drop back to participate in the organization's passing.
Arsenal is a pass-and-run game, with the ball mainly at the feet of Chen Mo and Xiaozhu, and the team's deep sprint space is larger than Barcelona's.
In this case, Arsenal's requirement for the center is to be able to contain the opponent's center back, be able to head and kick all kinds of cakes in the penalty area, be able to run one-on-one, and at the same time be able to resist the opponent's center back and get the ball to the midfielder. A big center who can make time without the ball.
Giroud left because his speed was too slow, his turn in the penalty area was too slow and he couldn't get a lot of cake, and he couldn't rush the ball with a single shot. It was basically Chen Mo who ran the ball.
There is no doubt that this will make Chen Mo's data better, but the problem is that Chen Mo is a midfielder and has to take into account defense.
Once the pressure is too high and the attack fails, the opponent will be able to get past the Arsenal midfield more easily when counterattacking, and the arrival of Lewandowski solved all these problems.
Lewandowski has all three abilities: playing ball with someone behind his back, eating cakes in the penalty area, and making one-on-one raids.
However, what caught Chen Mo's attention the most in this game was not actually his own player, but the 18-year-old right back who came off the bench for Sheffield United - Kyle Walker.
"This guy is really strong physically."
Seeing Walker flying past him like a mad cow, Chen Mo had some appreciation in his eyes. Henry, who was playing with his mobile phone next to him, raised his eyelids and glanced at Walker's running back. He also nodded and smiled: "It's very good. He's strong and fast. The key is. He's a right back and he's still at Sheffield United."
Henry smiled mischievously, and Chen Mo smiled and shook his head: "It's still early, just having strong physical fitness is useless."
There is no doubt that what Henry means is that Walker is easy to dig, and that is indeed the case.
Sheffield United is a team that has been in the Premier League and Championship for a long time. The players of this kind of team are easy to find, and Arsenal's right back Zambrotta is old. In a high-intensity confrontation environment like the Premier League, , it is estimated that it will only be able to maintain its competitiveness for another one or two years.
However, although it is easy to dig, this Walker does look very good, and Arsenal does need to prepare candidates for the right back replacement, but just watching one game is of little reference.
Just looking at the highlight performance, Lingard can be the king of the ball, but this does not prevent Chen Mo and Wenger from recording Walker in their small notebooks.
Yes, Wenger also pays attention to Walker. In fact, he is more optimistic about Walker than Chen Mo. After all, Wenger is professional when it comes to talent. And the club will not be short of money soon!
To be precise, Arsenal was not short of money a year or two ago, but...
Arsenal is like a house slave and a car slave.
There is money in the account, and there will be a surplus of food every month after paying off the loan, but he will be worried that one day he will suddenly lose his job or become ill, and then repay the loan. Therefore, Wenger did not dare to spend it even if he had money, or he would repay the loan in advance. Or save it for a rainy day.
But it's different now.
When Keli acquired the shares, she had already made a promise to the fans that she would help Arsenal pay off the loan. The family has no mortgage or car loan. Who is not a tough man? !
Take a look at the situation and buy if it suits you!
It’s so heroic!
Watching Walker running around on the field, Wenger thought a little excitedly, and in the end, the game ended with Arsenal beating their opponent 1-0.
.
In the first eight rounds of the Premier League this year, there were only two highlight games.
One was Manchester City versus Manchester United, but the game ended in a farce because of a fight between Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo.
And another much-anticipated game is Arsenal vs. Manchester City!
This game is very crucial, not only for the fans, but also for the entire Premier League!
The reason is simple. Whether it is Wanglaoji and Jiaduobao, Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola, or the so-called "double pride" later on, in the field of publicity and campaigning, the topic and eye-catching degree of a single company will never be as high as that of the two companies. Heroes clash.
The Football Association discovered this problem last season, so they created an atmosphere in public opinion where Manchester United and Arsenal were competing against each other. Unfortunately, Manchester United failed to catch this traffic and was directly destroyed by Chen Mo.
Of course, losing a game is not a big problem. This year, Premier League officials are still planning to do this. They even planned to create some tragic and heroic backgrounds for Ronaldo. Unexpectedly, Ronaldo went to Real Madrid.
Under such circumstances, it makes no sense to engage in a "double red meeting" between Manchester United and Arsenal.
The content of the game is not good to watch, and no matter how big the publicity stunt is, non-Manchester United and Arsenal fans will not retain it, and they may change the channel after watching half of it.
At this juncture, Manchester City stood up!
Manchester City's lineup this season is a super all-star, and what's interesting is that Manchester City's Kaka Ibuya, Toure, Kolo Toure, Ashley Cole, and the Magic Flute have all interacted with Chen Mo, and they have all been Chen Mo killed him before!
What's this?
The battle of revenge!
Full of gimmicks!
And not only the Premier League officials, Nike is also building momentum!
This is Chen Mo’s first year signing with Nike. Nike’s top management has long been preparing how to use Chen Mo to expand Nike’s influence in the football field. However, he suffered from the lack of heavyweight record before and there was no gimmick in the hype. But now there is an opportunity. coming!
And moreover!
Not only Chen Mo, Nike is also the sponsor of Manchester City's jersey, and Ibrahimovic is also a Nike star!
Finally, why does oil man Mansour want to invest in Manchester City?
Isn’t the purpose just to gain international influence? !
Premier League officials, Nike, Petroleum Man, these are just a few relatively large giants, and there are countless other stakeholders.
There is no doubt that after Arsenal played Sheffield United, sports media around the world began to build momentum for this game. As the eye of the storm of public opinion, London was naturally even more exaggerated.
When citizens open their mobile phones every day, they see advertising text messages promoting the game; when they go online, they see webpage advertisements and recommendations from UP owners; when they buy newspapers, the headlines are also about Arsenal and Manchester City, or Chen Mo and so and so; when watching TV, they see various news. Various celebrities and famous speakers make game predictions, and even team stars such as Bergkamp and Sun Jihai are invited to do Q&A.
360-degree coverage with no blind spots. Gradually, the topic of conversation among citizens began to be drawn to this game.
In such an atmosphere of national expectation, days passed day by day.
Soon, the time came to September 28, the sixth round of the Premier League, and the match day between Arsenal and Manchester City finally arrived.
I'm a bit stuck today, so there may not be a second chapter tonight.
