Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 432

In the 28th minute, Manchester United led 1-0. The progress of the game was in line with psychological expectations. In addition, Erdegao missed a penalty kick, which led to further changes in the mentality of the players on both sides.

Arteta on the sidelines found that the "psychological barrier" of these players under his command did not pass last year, and it still did not pass this year.

The two transfer windows this season have spent nearly 3 million euros in signings. I thought I could make a further step on the basis of losing the runner-up last season, but in the end, there are 2 rounds left in the season, and it depends on other people's faces. Only then can we decide whether we can enter the top four.

Arteta was very upset, not only the score in front of him, but also the rhetoric made by the fourth-ranked Newcastle - not only will they continue to secure a seat in the Champions League this season, but their wholly-owned shareholder "Saudi Public Investment Fund" will also A great plan to unveil after the Premier League season.

Arteta doesn't know the so-called "greatness", where is the greatness, and where is the greatness. In short, after much deliberation, this team controlled by Saudi oil daddy, any plan should be inseparable from oil and money.

Thinking of money made him even more depressed.

Arsenal in the past was not good, and they would always be said to be frugal and limited in spending, but in the past two seasons, the owner Kroenke has turned into "Krypton Krypton". He spent nearly 5 million euros in the two seasons, and no one It can be said that Arsenal are so picky.

But the standard of an arms race is rising. The summer window adds the winter window. Except for Tottenham, which BIG7 transfer investment is not more than 2 million? 2 million euros are at the entry level. Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, and Chelsea all spend around 3 million.

The prosperous Premier League also created the prosperous British banknotes, as well as the cruel game competition at the hell level.

If this number is placed in any of the remaining five major leagues, it can win any team in the league.

It’s not that the other four major leagues haven’t used their brains to share a share of the Premier League’s pie. Whether it’s the UEFA Super League’s attempts or the continuous criticism of Bayern and other teams, they have failed to affect the Premier League’s progress as a dominant player.

Those people really have nothing to do with the Premier League. It is not that they have not inherited the robber logic and plundering customs of the Europeans, but in Europe, in terms of robbers and plunder, the British who once colonized the world are the ancestors of robbers.

Although the empire on which the sun never sets has already set, there are still people behind the bandit ancestors.

In fact, if you take a closer look, you can find that there are actually two types of people who control the Premier League, American capital and fat dads.

Henry, the owner of Liverpool, Kroenke, the owner of Arsenal, Burleigh, the owner of Chelsea, and the Glazer family, the former owner of Manchester United, are all examples of American capital entering European football. , basketball and baseball teams.

The current bosses of Manchester City, Newcastle, and Manchester United are the three major oil daddies in the Middle East-the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, although Qatar mainly exports natural gas.

The rise of Chelsea also relied on Abramovich's oil pound, and Abramovich's exit was actually the result of a pinch between American capital and British local forces, which can be regarded as another classic example of robber logic.

Therefore, as a Jewish-British Levi can't play these six clubs, it is incomprehensible. Compared with them, Levi can only be regarded as a middle-level player.

The rest of the Premier League are small players.

It’s just that the Financial Fair Play Act and the Premier League’s near-even distribution of benefits set a “krypton gold cap” for big players, so that while small players can fully earn benefits, the gap with big players in krypton gold will not be widened too much Far.

But the fat daddy—it should be said that the Saudi fat daddy is really unwilling to watch a lot of money not being spent, so they have been planning for a long time and have formulated a "great plan" that can change the status quo of football. Ready for release in two weeks.

But such a big move, in fact, many reporters and Football Association officials have learned the specific content in advance.

The Saudi Football Super League, a game dubbed the "sand money" by fans, has attracted the attention of the world since the introduction of Ronaldo.

Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth investment fund "Saudi Public Investment Fund" bought a 75% stake in four Saudi giants, Riyadh Victory, Riyadh Crescent, Jeddah United and Jeddah National, and promised to introduce at least 3 star players to each club. players.

Subsequently, Brozovic, Kanter, Firmino, Ruben Neves, Coulibaly, Mahrez, and the B seat, Ziyech, etc. who were very close at one time.

Had it not been for the Benzema and Milinkovic of this world being intercepted by Manchester United, they would have sweated passionately in the Sands Super League.

However, do you think Saudi fat daddy just spend money to play live football manager, to improve the level of Saudi football and national image?

True, but only half true.

Think again, why are the four clubs promised at least 3 All-Star players?Instead of 4, 5?
How much money does the oil daddy lack?
surely not.

This is the core of the great plan, thanks to FIFA.

国际足联在2022年颁布了新的规则，从2022年7月1日开始，每家俱乐部最多只能同时向国外俱乐部外租8名21岁以上球员，同时从国外俱乐部租借的人数也被限制在8人，到了下赛季、也就是2024-25赛季，这两个数字会下调到6人。

In addition, the sum of the number of people renting or renting out with the same club cannot exceed 3 people.

The maximum lease period is also limited to 1 year.

The purpose of this regulation is to limit the hoarding of players by some European clubs, and then rent out a large area and excessively occupy football resources. ".

But this regulation has inspired the Saudi oil daddy.

I have money, but Europe has the Financial Fair Play Act. I invested in Newcastle, but I can't buy as much as I want.

How to do?
I buy the people I like to the Shachao, let them drive the local market and improve the country's image, and then buy the people I like in Newcastle to the Shachao, and then rent it to Newcastle, isn't it over?
There is no Financial Fair Play Act in the Sands Premier League. I want to spend as much as I want. The lease agreement only limits the length of one year, and there is no limit to the salary ratio that needs to be apportioned on the lease. The Big Four get any top player in European football they want - only if that person can be bought with money.

UEFA did not expect that the introduction of Middle Eastern capital to fight against the traditional aristocratic group headed by Real Madrid back then gave birth to a behemoth.

And even if they want to work with FIFA to change the rules and restrict the behavior of the Saudis, it is too late. Any modification involving major rules will require a period of research and corresponding formulas. Even after the introduction, it will take about three years. The buffer period allows the club to gradually adjust.

This is also where the Saudis have nothing to fear, not to mention that there are still many unclear interests and cooperation between them and FIFA.

It is foreseeable that Newcastle next season will form an All-Star team.

Seeing that his opponents are constantly playing tricks, Arteta has no time to lament. He keeps directing the players on the field to attack forward and attack again.

If you can't win this game, you can't make it to the Champions League, and no matter how much other people spend next season, it has nothing to do with you.

In the 31st minute, Saka, the most threatening player on the field, once again forced Luke Shaw from the side. , Haverts followed up and wanted to compete for the top, but although he was tall, his body was not thick at all. Casemiro, who was retreated and defended, lost his balance in the air and failed to hold the ball. De Gea took it away.

If you get through the right lane but can't get in, then switch to the left lane.

Sanji Kaoru on the left sees that Wan Bisaka really has nothing to do, so he can only keep cutting inside.

But today the defensive midfielder in charge of the right half is Timber, the Dutchman Arteta once tried to buy, and was finally brought by Ten Hag from Ajax to the Theater of Dreams.

Wan Bissaka followed Mikaoru all the way. If Zinchenko took the opportunity to go to the bottom, Timber would immediately pull to the side to defend. The cooperation between the two was very tacit.

In the end, Arsenal could only constantly rely on crosses and forced long-range kicks to create offensive opportunities.

On Manchester United's side, Kwa, who "swiped" Chen Xiaoliang's free kick to get an assist just now, was not reconciled to his performance staying here. Facing Ben White, who is not good at defending his type of winger, He has been waiting for an opportunity.

In the 42nd minute, Arsenal made a cross and Varane pushed it out. Manchester United launched a counterattack. Chen Xiaoliang led the half-time, but the long pass to Sesco was destroyed by Saliba, but the ball was not pushed far. , just landed at the feet of Kwa outside the penalty area.

Facing Odegaard who was sealed in front of him, Kewa first took a false step to the left, then suddenly swung the ball to the right two steps away, and then followed up with a rubbing shot from the instep of his right foot.

This shot about 27 meters away from the goal drew a wonderful semi-circular arc in the air, hanging straight to the upper right corner of the goal.

Ramsdale tried his best to stretch his body as much as possible in a nervous and anxious mood, but he still couldn't touch the world wave of Kwa.

Zhan Jun: "2 to 0!"

"The last game was Sesco, and today it was Kwa. Both of them followed up after Xiaoliang opened the scoring, and both showed excellent form!"

""

"I don't know if Klopp and Mourinho are watching this game. Next is the final of the FA Cup and the Champions League. I want to see the two famous coaches, especially Mourinho who knows the three masters of Rome. , Can you find a way to limit it!"

Not long after the celebration, the game came to the midfield.

Unlike Ten Hag who asked the team to control the rhythm of the game, Arteta ruthlessly vented his inner anger in the locker room.

Nervousness destroyed all preparation plans and almost destroyed the team's hopes of reaching the top four.

However, the confidence of the Arsenal players cannot be boosted by these words of anger. Even if this season is not counted, Manchester United, which did not have Chen Xiaoliang last season, also defeated Arsenal, which is ranked No. 3, 1-1 at home, and In the next 19 home games, Manchester United remained unbeaten against Arsenal 17 times.

Whether it's Wenger, Emery, or Arteta, or whether it's Van Gaal, Mourinho, Solskjaer or Ten Hag, Old Trafford is the most difficult stadium for Arsenal to conquer.

However, although the confidence failed to boost, the Arsenal players who were already 2 goals behind and broke the cans were at least not so nervous, which gave birth to their combat effectiveness.

In the 61st minute of the second half, Martinelli replaced Trossard and Fabio Vieira replaced the sleepwalking Haverts. Two minutes later, the two teamed up to score a goal.

In the counterattack, Fabio Vieira made a cross from the right and wanted to pass it to Martinelli at the back point, but the pass was too short and was ejected by Varane who quickly retreated to the penalty spot.

However, because it was heading the ball on the way back, this top failed to head the ball far. Instead, Varane rushed into the goal because he couldn't hold back his speed...

The ball landed right on the head of Fabio Vieira, who slid into the penalty area after a cross, and he headed it back this time, but failed to deliver.

However, mistakes went in and out, and the somewhat lax Manchester United defense was not in place except for Varane. The ball bounced on the ground and continued to fly to the back point.

Martinelli, who had been waiting for a long time after the point, took a direct volley with his foot unguarded. De Gea, who jumped up to block with his body, failed to touch the ball. The ball hit the top of the goal and entered the net. Arsenal pulled back One goal, the score is 2 to 1.

This ball was like a thunderbolt, waking up the Manchester United players who felt that they were sure of winning and could play to the end safely. Chen Xiaoliang repeatedly reminded the defenders to get into position as soon as possible and not to press too high in the counterattack.

Arsenal seems to have suddenly seen the hope of dying and reviving. A group of young people began to attack in turn. Chen Xiaoliang directly retreated to the midfielder to help defend. Ten Hag also hurriedly arranged for the players on the bench to warm up and prepare Adjust your style of play at any time.

Just when Arsenal's offensive was getting higher and higher, and they were about to equalize Manchester United in the away game, the progress of the game once again showed the charm of football to all fans.

You never know what will happen in the next second in this green field.

In the 78th minute, Chen Xiaoliang, who retreated, moved to the left, focusing on defending Saka who had already inserted.

It can be said that more than half of Arsenal's frontcourt threats in this game came from the 22-year-old England winger.

Sure enough, Rice made a diagonal pass to the right, and Chen Xiaoliang immediately started to intercept the ball halfway.

The moment he got the ball, he swept it out of the corner of his eye. Except for Cesko who was standing in front of him, the rest of his teammates retreated to the defensive position and dragged behind.

He started to drive the ball towards the front of the middle.

Fabio Vieira in the center rushed over, but he was also called Vieira. The style of this Vieira was completely different from that of Arsenal. Just throw him away.

Then the person in front of him is Odegaard.

Erdegaard kept running back, and then turned his head to look at Chen Xiaoliang's direction of travel, trying to block Chen Xiaoliang's advancing route with his body.

However, Chen Xiaoliang first took a section to the right, and then suddenly changed direction to the left. Odegaard, who had been taken to the right by Chen Xiaoliang, could only turn back to avoid being thrown away by him.

Fabio Vieira behind was still chasing, and Gabriel, who stayed behind, blocked it.

Chen Xiaoliang glanced at the other side. Saliba was always cutting inside Sesco. If he wanted to pass the ball to Sesco, he had to pass it diagonally and let him go straight, or pass the ball in front of him and let him pass the ball. overhead.

But the consciousness in a flash of inspiration told him that the success rate of these two options is far less than that of doing it all by himself.

At this moment, Chen Xiaoliang was already approaching the penalty area line. Seeing that he could no longer retreat, Gabriel stretched out his left leg to steal the ball. Chen Xiaoliang made a small change to the right to get rid of him, and Gabriel lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Seeing that he was the only one defending, Erdegao immediately approached, Chen Xiaoliang protected the ball, squeezed him away with his body and broke into the penalty area!

The fans of the home team in the stands had already stood up, and the shouts of "ohhhhhhh" became louder and louder as Chen Xiaoliang got closer to the goal.

Erdegao, who was pushed away, rushed forward again, but he could no longer catch up with Chen Xiaoliang.

And Saliba, who was originally defending Sesco, didn't care so much. When he put his left foot on the left corner of the small penalty area and was about to shoot, he rushed over and tried his best to shovel the ground to interfere for the last time. other side.

But Chen Xiaoliang is not Balotelli, he will not stop at the last moment and think about life, and if his ball can be broken, it will be broken at the first hit, and he will not come all the way here.

Ramsdale guarded the near post and never made an attack. What he was afraid of was that Chen Xiaoliang would suddenly pass to the other side of the goal and let Sesco hit the empty goal.

He squatted down to prevent Chen Xiaoliang from hitting him in the crotch, but after passing 4 people in a row, he had already triggered a difficult goal. He kicked up and blasted a burst shot towards the upper edge of the near corner of the goal!
Ramsdale kicked his feet and slammed his right hand up for the ball, but before he could reach out, the ball flew over his head.

Zhan Jun: "3 to 1! This goal has been scored!!!"

"Gunners pass through the bushes, not a single leaf touches the body!"

"Rice never imagined that his random pass was cut off, allowing the opponent to complete a solo ride with four players in a row, and will completely destroy the team's hope of entering the top four!"

"15 minutes ago, Newcastle beat Brentford by 1 goal in the away game. They are already 4 points ahead of Arsenal. If the Gunners want to fight for the Champions League, they must at least play in the last ten minutes of tonight. Score 2 goals in a row, get 1 point, and wait for Newcastle to lose in the last round, and a miracle will happen!"

"But Old Trafford fans, Manchester United players, and Chen Xiaoliang, will they still let them score?!"

After scoring the goal, Chen Xiaoliang took off his shirt and waved it in his hand, walked half the pitch to the South Stand and jumped up and waved under the "Sir Bobby Charlton" stand. While celebrating, he also threw his shirt to fans in the stands.

The teammates on the side bench rushed over to hug him and the fans beside the stands to celebrate this great goal.

And there are two people waiting behind, the referee Michael Oliver who has already taken out a yellow card and is waiting to call the penalty, and the Manchester United props manager who is holding a new jersey and waiting to put Chen Xiaoliang on...

After celebrating with his teammates and fans, Chen Xiaoliang happily accepted these two "gifts" carefully prepared for himself. This is also his second yellow card this season.

In the end, although they were still attacking in action, Arsenal, whose mentality had completely collapsed, could not change anything, and the 3-1 score was kept until the end. Arteta could only completely accept that he would miss next season, which is also a group stage match. The restructured UEFA Champions League.

After the 37th round, although the former Manchester United player Carrick led Middlesbrough to defend at home with all their strength, they still failed to stop Manchester City's iron hoof. They lost 0 to 4, which also allowed Manchester City to score the team's first goal of the season. 100 goals.

他们之前最高的纪录是2017-18赛季的106球、2013-14、2019-20赛季的102球。

Throughout the history of the Premier League, the 2017-18 Manchester City team still retains four records, namely:

106 goals in a single season (the previous record was 2009 goals for Chelsea under Carlo Ancelotti in 10-103)
79 goal difference in a single season (the previous record was also the 2009 goal difference of Chelsea in 10-71)

单赛季100分夺冠（换算成3分制，之前的纪录是1978-79夺冠的利物浦的98分）
甩开No.2曼联19分夺冠（之前的纪录是1999-00赛季曼联的18分）
This season, Manchester City has scored 100 goals, scored 79 goals, scored 97 points and left the team behind them by 12 points. Although there is a gap in some statistics, it looks very similar to the team in 2017-18 on the whole. The invincible division, not to mention that they have remained undefeated in the league so far.

But they are ranked second in the league...

Guardiola heard that Manchester United defeated Arsenal after the game, and he congratulated Manchester United in advance, saying that he has tried his best, and the team has achieved perfection in doing so. He expects Manchester United to lose to the brink of relegation in the last round Sheffield United is impossible.

And Liverpool, who will play in the FA Cup final 4 days later, has arranged a rotation and substitute players when the Champions League seats have been confirmed. They played 0-0 with Crystal Palace at home, which also stopped their league goals. On the 99th.

Newcastle ranked fourth with 4 points, securing the fourth place in the league.

Arsenal and Chelsea, who finished Leeds United with 2 goals in this round, have the same 80 points and can only accept the result of moving to the Europa League next season.

However, despite Guardiola's congratulations, Manchester United's players did not open the champagne in advance.

Since the goal difference is 3 behind Manchester City, if the end game is tied and Manchester City wins, they will also rely on goal difference to win the championship trophy for the second time after the 2011-12 season.

So there is only one way before Manchester United, which is to win the last round.

However, before the last round of the league, on May 4, 5 days later, they still need to start the FA Cup final with Liverpool at Wembley.
