Chapter 383 : The Saints lost! ! ! !

"Southampton lost!!!"

"Southampton finally lost!!!"

This is the headline on the front pages of sports media across the UK and even across Europe today.

"In the second round of Premier League No.20 yesterday, Southampton lost away to Sunderland. The score was [-]-[-]. This is Southampton's first loss since being promoted to the Premier League! "

"That's it!! Southampton's consecutive unbeaten games in the top league are locked at 59 games, and the winning streak is also locked at [-] games!! After creating a new five major league unbeaten and winning streak The Saints finally stopped going after the record."

The media all over the UK made it seem like it was Chinese New Year, and the loss of a game abruptly made them even more lively than Christmas.

It's not to blame the media for making too much fuss, but the previous record of the Saints is really too tough.They won the championship undefeated last season, and this season led the team to a climax. Some nervous fans are wondering if they will defend the championship with a terrifying undefeated league title?

If this feat is really accomplished by them, it will definitely be recorded in history! !Uh. Although the current Southampton has been recorded in the history of European football.

The acting coach of Sunderland, the black cat who defeated Southampton, was very happy. Kevin Ball said: "Beating Southampton is a qualitative leap for us. It's not just about the very important three points. At the same time, it also created confidence for our players. After defeating the Saints, our team is very confident in our relegation situation this season!"

The Black Cats were ranked second to last in the league before, and they are very likely to be relegated with only [-] points, and the relegation of the first and last third in the league is the same score of [-] points, so this has led to The situation of one point in a game will determine the life and death of a team.

Under such circumstances, Sunderland defeated the league leader and scored a valuable three points, jumping from the second-to-last in the league to the fifth-to-last, because Cardiff City, the last-to-last, lost the game. The third West Ham United also drew, so Sunderland took the lead in relegation.

Sunderland's head coach was Italian Di Canio before, but unfortunately, due to the poor performance of the Italian team, he was fired by the Black Cat executives after more than a month after taking office. For this reason, he was also dismissed from the Premier League this season. The first head coach, the current Sunderland is temporarily led by Kevin Ball, a member of the coaching staff, and the Black Cats have yet to find a suitable head coach.

And Wenger also said in an interview with reporters: "Sunderland made a good start for everyone. They proved to us with their actions that the Saints are not so strong that they are invincible, so we are very confident in defeating the opponent next time." The gap between us."

Southampton's opponent in the next round is Wenger's Arsenal, so now the Saints' loss is definitely good news for Arsenal.After narrowing the gap of three points with the opponent, Wenger is sure that the mentality of the opposing team's players has also changed, so facing the Saints in the next league game is a very good opportunity for them.

"I don't know why everyone is so excited when we lose a league game, it's like the end of our world. First of all we are still the leader of the league, we are [-] points ahead of second place Arsenal! What does it mean ?”

Speaking of this, Charlotte suddenly raised her voice: "It means that even if we lose three more games, we are still number one in the league!! He (Wenger) wants to surpass us? First make sure we lose three more games in a row Let’s talk about the fact that they can win three games in a row! You must know that there is only one point gap between them and Manchester City behind. If it were me, I would be more realistic and want to keep my second position in the league and stabilize this position. Hard-won status, not staring at the sky so high!"

Charlotte has always been an outstanding representative of "accumulating character". You rarely see him so "arrogant" in interviews, but today he abandons his character and wants to give Wenger a hard time.

It's nothing, it's just because I'm in a bad mood and I want to find someone to vent.

I don’t know if Wenger will vomit blood in anger after knowing Charlotte’s idea. Now Wenger at least knows that Southampton has a real problem through this interview, otherwise he has always been very concerned about the team’s performance. It is impossible for the low-key Charlotte to be so high-key.

Isn't the reason for such a high profile to tell everyone their current results and points and then bring confidence to his players.

But is the atmosphere in their team really harmonious?Are the players really okay?
Just after the second round of the League Cup semi-final with Manchester United, a reporter asked Charlotte.

"No problem of course, our players have good morale. We lost a league game, which is normal for a long season of 38 league games. But why do you every have to act like we were relegated before Same?" Charlotte didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Then why did you draw with Manchester United in this game? And the two sides didn't score a goal. The score of zero to zero is not your style."

Charlotte didn't know how to complain, and thought for a while and said: "Although Manchester United has some problems this season, I think only a brain-dead will treat them as the eighth team in the league. They are Manchester United and the Red Devils. , This is Old Trafford, the Theater of Dreams. Believe me, any team, even the top giants in Europe, the first consideration in this stadium is not to win, but how to win. It’s like getting out of the way! So we can get out of the whole body to prove that we have no problems, and we are the ones who made it to the final, right?”

After speaking, Charlotte ignored the reporters, turned around and left the press conference hall.

But Wenger, who has been paying attention to the opponent's every move, said privately to his assistant: "This kid is still stubborn, look at the performance of his players in this game? It can be said that since the Saints were brought by him One of the worst games I've played in the Premier League."

For this, the Red Devils fans love Charlotte. First of all, everyone knows that Ferguson and Charlotte are very good friends.When Charlotte first came to the Premier League, Ferguson led him to the coaching conference in London, so the Red Devils fans have a fascinated affection for Charlotte itself.

And although Charlotte's words in the post-match press conference were explaining for himself, what the Red Devils fans heard was more like supporting Manchester United who is now in the quagmire.This can't help but remind them that after Ferguson retired before the season, there was a gossip that Charlotte was also a candidate for Manchester United's coaching list.If Charlotte really becomes the head coach of the Red Devils, what kind of scene will it be now?
At the very least, it won't be worse than the Red Devils now, right?Many fans sighed.

At the end of January, the No.20 rounds of the league began. Southampton faced Wenger's Arsenal at home in this round.

This is a contest between the league's first and the second in the league. Now the Saints are ten points ahead of Arsenal. If Arsenal wins this game, they will narrow the gap with the opponent.

This is also a game about six points, because no matter who wins, when he gets three points, he directly makes the opponent lose three points, so there will be a six-point gap between one gain and one loss.

If it's a tie... Well, if it's a tie, the happiest thing to do is Manchester City.Manchester City started this round with a five-to-one victory over Tottenham in an away game. Before this round, the difference between Manchester City and Arsenal was only one point, so if Arsenal did not win in the end, they would overtake the Gunners and become the first in the league. two.

But for Blue Moon, they obviously still hope that the opponent will draw, because in this way Arsenal will be equivalent to helping Manchester City hold back Southampton's pace. Blue Moon, the final champion of this season, still has hope.

Tottenham have had some tragedies this season, and almost all the money from selling Bell was used for signings.However, the iron rooster's "seven gourd babies" did not lead Tottenham to usher in a big situation.

In the second round of the League Cup against Manchester United three days ago, Charlotte used almost all the substitute players to play, so of course he had to go all out for such a heavyweight match.

"Hey guys. Remember that nasty Arsene Wenger from a few days ago? He was dictating our dressing room and counting on beating us at home? Honestly, one of the Premier League managers What I hate the most is Allardyce, followed by Wenger. This old guy has never won me every time, whether it is on the court or off the court, but he likes to jump out every time. .”

Charlotte made his final speech in the locker room before the game. His speech was very humorous, so he often caused everyone to laugh.

After the team lost to Sunderland some time ago, some changes did appear in the hearts of the players.But Charlotte didn't point at the players for that game, instead he took the initiative to block the responsibility for the failure of that game.

Charlotte made it clear that she doesn't pay much attention to those so-called various records. Those things will not bring much substantial benefit to the team. Appearance, that's all.

So Charlotte quickly adjusted the mentality of the players, and losing is not a big deal.And because the Southampton team remained unbeaten in the previous game, their backs were as tense and cautious as a mountain on their backs.

And now that mountain is gone, in what Charlotte said to the players: "We have lost the game, those annoying records have ended, and the team should work hard next." It's time."

It is not terrible for a team to lose. What is terrible is that it affects the players' mentality, morale and the atmosphere of the locker room.But the morale of Charlotte's Southampton team is high, and a team that is not afraid of losing is enough to suppress the opponent in terms of morale.

Wenger didn't know this game, Charlotte and his team were sharpening their swords and waiting for the opponent to rush up!
