"Sneeze!" George blew his nose hard and complained in a low voice to old Charlie, Adele and Elizabeth Hood who were trying to suppress their laughter. "These brats are really cruel, especially Chris. This scammer is simply a professional..."
"Okay, okay~" Elizabeth walked forward with a smile, pushed the restless George back into the bed, and at the same time carefully tucked George into the bed, "George, just rest in peace and recuperate. The doctor said that he won't be able to use it anymore." In one week you will be completely ready to return in time for the game against West Ham United on Sunday, not to mention you will not miss the FA Cup final and the Champions League final."
"Ahem... But the problem is, the game against Arsenal in midweek... Ahem... I definitely won't be able to direct on the spot. That old boy Wenger will definitely let this... sneeze... opportunity, take advantage of Tottenham. The one who stole a victory... Ah Sneeze!"
Extreme joy indeed produces sorrow. Although there was no accident during the players' "flying trapeze" activities, George, who was doused with various drinks including champagne, unfortunately fell ill during a series of celebrations after returning to the locker room after the game. Got a cold.
Unlike his previous life where he never took the common cold seriously, in this life George, as an Anglo-Saxon, had almost zero resistance to cold viruses. In fact, had it not been discovered in time and the hired medical team was powerful enough to prevent the cold virus from further causing other complications, George might have had to work in the special care unit of the hospital at this time.
As George expected, Wenger really wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when George had a cold and was unable to take charge in person to win against Tottenham. However, the Tottenham players who were the culprits of the George cold incident obviously would not let their rivals in the same city get what they wanted. . Especially Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been drilled hard on and off the court by Elizabeth, Adele, Old Charlie and others in the past few days, is even more eager to use practical actions to apologize to George!
If you think about it with your heels, if George's unbeaten streak against Arsenal since he took over at White Hart Lane is broken due to his previous nonsense, then there will definitely be no good fruits for him after the game!
In sharp contrast to the Tottenham players who have an extremely strong desire to win, except for a few people such as coach Arsene Wenger and captain Henry, other players in the Arsenal team seem to be somewhat less enthusiastic about the upcoming derby. In other words, they don't seem to attach much importance to the outcome of this game, and just treat it as an ordinary game.
Different from the previous life, Arsenal in this life did not give up the chance to make a last-ditch effort to qualify for the Champions League next season in the final stage of the 2005-06 season. The battle between Tottenham and Chelsea for the top spot in the Premier League has just settled. Manchester United and Liverpool, who are third or fourth in the standings, have early established a double-digit lead over the teams behind them. Therefore, even if Arsenal, with one game less, wins the last two rounds of the league, it is impossible to reach the top four in the league!
All four goals are empty this season, and there is no hope of qualifying for the Champions League next season. Wenger and Henry are not the kind of people who are good at boosting morale. The club is even more reluctant to pay a high bonus to encourage players to fight for dignity. Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that the players show a work attitude of clocking out and clocking out during training.
As mentioned many times before, Vieira's departure last summer not only dealt a heavy blow to Arsenal in terms of skills, tactics and influence, but also seriously weakened the Gunners' spirit when facing headwinds and fierce battles. Attributes and willpower!
You know, just three years ago, the Premier League match between Manchester United and Arsenal was full of sparks. The existence of Martin Keown, Vieira and Parlor and other strong players is the backbone and backbone for Arsenal players to not be afraid of Manchester United's lethal tactics on the court!
Looking back now, when Reyes encountered the brutal logging tactics of his opponents in the game, and his reputation was no longer even visible to everyone, what else did everyone at Arsenal do besides verbal protests?
In the absence of a strong team leader, Arsenal players who have already realized that there is no hope of qualifying for the Champions League next season and can only go to the UEFA Cup will find it difficult to cheer up, even if this game is extremely important for Arsenal. An important north London derby.
In the final analysis, the vast majority of players play football for life and work, not out of loyalty to the club or for the club's honor. Therefore, when the club cannot meet the needs of the players on a competitive and economic level, don't expect too much that someone can step forward and turn the tide - the reason why Lazio in 2002-04 can be remembered is precisely because this kind of scene is really So rare!
Henry is indeed a very good player, but the superstar known as the "King of Highbury" is not a competent team leader. For example, in this North London derby, Henry's performance in the game was remarkable and he also posed a certain threat to the goal guarded by Cech, but he was unable to lead other teammates to win the game. !
The soldiers have no fighting spirit, no one can stand up to boost morale, and the opponent has Cristiano Ronaldo who is in a state of "death-beheading". It is natural that Arsenal loses the fourth North London derby this season. Strange.
0-3! Facing the high-spirited Tottenham, Arsenal failed to seize the perfect opportunity when George was absent, and unsurprisingly lost the third North London derby in half a month and the fourth time this season. Ronaldo, who scored one goal and assisted two other goals in the game, was named the best player of the game after the game!
George has never won a derby in the three years since he took charge of White Hart Lane. He was killed three times by his rivals in the same city within half a month, not to mention being defeated by Tottenham a total of ten times in the three derby games. In goal, they only won one game in the past five games... Under this series of mental blows, the mentality of the Arsenal players who had lost completely exploded!
The result of the explosive mentality was that in the final match of the league four days later, Arsenal, sitting at Highbury Stadium, drew 2-2 with Wigan Athletic, known for their fierce playing style. Arsene Wenger, fifth in the Premier League, The worst record since coaching Arsenal ended all games in the 2005-06 season!
In fact, if Bergkamp hadn't been the savior in his final performance, using a pass and a shot to help Arsenal equalize the score twice, I'm afraid Arsenal's league ranking would be even more ugly - Blackburn Rovers ranked sixth. They are only one point behind the Gunners in the Premier League standings!
With a weekly salary of only 14,000 pounds, the 37-year-old Bergkamp still made such a huge contribution to Arsenal in the last Premier League game of his career. At this moment, Ice Prince's professionalism formed an extremely strong contrast with Arsenal's management's poor performance in renewing the veteran's contract!
