Tottenham beat Arsenal 4-0 in their second North London derby this season. This result really surprised everyone. You know, although Arsenal are missing many generals such as Henry and Ljungberg in this game, and since George took charge, Tottenham has always had an advantage in the record against Arsenal, but Tottenham also lost in this game. Many main players including Ledley King, Xabi Alonso and Mascherano were hidden in the snow, and their combat effectiveness was also greatly affected. Therefore, Wenger said at the post-match press conference that Arsenal lost the North London derby because of the absence of Henry and other main players. This reason is really unconvincing in the eyes of most people!

There are also main players absent, and Tottenham even sent more substitute players than Arsenal in this game. Why did the final result be that Tottenham played away from home and beat Arsenal, which sent most of the main players, with four goals? Could it be that Vermaelen and Dawson, two guys who can only play as substitute central defenders at Tottenham, are more powerful than Pires, Van Persie and Reyes in terms of personal abilities?

Therefore, if Wenger intends to attribute the team's defeat to this, then the professor had better think of a way to give a reasonable explanation first.

It is precisely for this reason that after the game, Arsenal fans who were extremely dissatisfied with the team's defeat in the North London Derby frantically surrounded the players and Gunners senior management at the Colney training base and Arsenal headquarters. To express the anger in their hearts!

It is foreseeable that, if nothing unexpected happens, unless Wenger can lead the team to regain their place in the North London derby in the future, this disastrous defeat will be a lingering thing in the hearts of Arsenal for a long time to come. shadow. Even if Wenger is able to lead Arsenal to win the FA Cup at the end of the season, it will not change the current situation in any way!

However, with Wenger's business philosophy and Arsenal's financial situation being worse than in the previous life, if the Gunners want to get rid of the shadow of this fiasco, I am afraid they can only wait for time for people to slowly forget about this matter.

Let’s stop talking about Arsenal for now, let’s get down to business now. Although the victory over Arsenal at Highbury Stadium gave Tottenham players a shot in the arm and made Tottenham fans very happy, this victory did not allow Tottenham to regain the league lead. Throne of Sheep - In another game that ended earlier, Chelsea, sitting at Stamford Bridge, defeated Fulham 3-1 and continued to lead the standings with an advantage of two points!

Obviously, facing Chelsea, who have been eliminated from the Champions League and FA Cup and can concentrate on the league battlefield, Tottenham's hope of regaining the initiative in this Premier League title race from the Blues is really slim. . After realizing that the possibility of winning the league has become very slim, the Tottenham team, which was still hesitant at first, has completely unified its thinking this time and decided to strategically abandon the league and devote its main energy to more promising championships. Trophies on top of the Champions League and FA Cup!

Of course, achieving this goal is not easy. Although the team that is about to face Tottenham in the Champions League semi-finals is Juventus, their defeat in the group stage, people who know a little bit about football know very well what kind of Bianconeri team has entered the knockout stage. Difficult to deal with. Especially when the famous gold medal coach Capello was invited to coach, Juventus's difficulty in dealing with it can be said to have been improved by several levels!

Even the Chelsea team that defeated Barcelona suffered at the hands of Juventus. George did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to eliminate the veteran Bianconeri to advance to the Champions League final, and after the final, win the European club's highest trophy. Big Ear Cup of Honor!

The day after the North London Derby, after a day of training, George, who returned to Boyd Leyton Manor, was preparing to spend the night with Elizabeth, who was staying here, but he unexpectedly received a message at this time. , saying that Sebastian Coe came to visit!

"Mr. Baron, what brought you to me?" After learning that it was Baron Sebastian Coe who came to visit in person, George was stunned for a moment, then quickly got up and changed his clothes. Go to the door to greet this unexpected visitor. After all, the other party is not only the chairman of the organizing committee for London's bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games, but also holds the title of baron, a lifelong noble. Moreover, he was enthusiastic about politics and had considerable influence in all walks of life in the UK, so George could not help but treat him with caution.

"Viscount Nelson, I'm really sorry. I came here without prior notice. I hope you can forgive me for my offense." Seeing that George came out to greet him in person, Sebastian Coe quickly expressed his condolences to George. apology. After all, it is indeed very rude to visit someone else's home without prior notice.

To be honest, if he didn't have urgent matters to discuss with George, Sebastian Coe, who had always attached great importance to building his own image, would never have made such a rude move.

"Haha, it's okay." George waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, "I know that Baron, you must have something very urgent, so you came to me at this time. However, I I’m curious, what is it that makes you think of me, Mr. Baron?”

Although George was indeed very dissatisfied with Sebastian Coe's sudden visit at this time, but as the saying goes, don't hit the smiling man. Now that the other party has apologized to him, it is not easy for George to continue to have an attack.

"Viscount Nelson, I would like to know what you think of London's bid to host the Olympic Games?" Sebastian Coe did not immediately change to the topic, but brought up a topic that had little to do with George.

"Huh? I think London's bid to host the Olympic Games is a very good thing. Not only can it show the British style to the world and increase the British influence around the world, but it can also greatly promote the economic development of the entire Greater London metropolitan area. "It's a pity that although London has participated in the recent bids to host the Olympic Games, it has not been able to have the last laugh." Realizing that the other party was testing his attitude towards London's bid to host the Olympic Games, George said while his mind was racing, "What? Could it be that this time, we finally have a chance to win the right to host the Olympics?"

"Yes, judging from the current situation, we have a great chance of successfully bidding this time. New York and Moscow are just here to join in the fun, Madrid is considered to have insufficient security due to the bombings that occurred last year, and only Paris has the ability to protect ourselves from our The possibility of seizing the hosting rights from our hands." Seeing George's support for this, Sebastian Coe relaxed a little and briefly introduced the current Olympic bidding situation to George in a tone full of expectation. "Although the plan we submitted is slightly better than that of the French, and the previous inspection by the Olympic Committee members also gave us a very high evaluation, the problem is that in order to fully realize this plan, at least 10 billion must be invested. British pounds of funding. But now we simply cannot find a funder willing to provide such a huge sum of money to make our plan more feasible..."

After hearing Sebastian Coe's words, George finally understood. It turned out that the chairman of the organizing committee for the London Olympic bid made a special late-night visit to Boyd Leighton Manor in order to persuade him to fund the London Olympics after they won the right to host the 2012 Olympics. funds!
