Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

With the winter transfer window of the five major European leagues closing, the rich Premier League suddenly attracted worldwide attention and received real-name envy from a large number of fans of other leagues.

According to incomplete statistics, a total of 516 transfer transactions occurred in the winter window, and the five major leagues generated a total of 7.927 million pounds.

Among them, the transfer fees generated by the Premier League are as high as 5.456 million pounds, accounting for nearly 70% of the five major leagues.

Maybe it won’t be discovered until several years later that Barcelona...has become the biggest victim.

Players who spent huge sums of money to buy them were unable to play in games later, and had to subsidize their annual salary when they were loaned out.

Time has come to February, and the Arsenal team has also entered a very intensive schedule.

According to the normal arrangement, four league games are interspersed with a cup match.

The problem is that Arsenal played in the Club World Cup in mid-December last year and missed two rounds of the league.

No... the Premier League is all scheduled for February.

In other words, Arsenal has three league games, two make-up games, one FA Cup fifth round, one Champions League 2/1 final first leg and one EFL Cup final in total eight games in February.

To be precise, eight games are played in 26 days, which is an average of one game every three days.

Fortunately, except for the guest challenge against Tottenham, the guest challenge against Juventus and the EFL Cup game against Manchester City, which are more troublesome, the other five games can be said to be not worth mentioning.

Even the league match with Tottenham was not difficult.

Since Tottenham are building a new stadium and are temporarily renting the new Wembley Stadium, the game is actually no different to both sides.

The first was a 5-1 win over Everton at home. New aid Aubameyang twice received Martin's pass and used his speed to throw off the defender and send the ball into Pickford's gate.

Then there was a 1-0 win in the make-up match at the London Bowl.

Visited the new Wembley Stadium and won 3:0 against Tottenham in the league.

The home game against Newcastle was a small upset due to continuous fighting.

Even though they were leading 2:1, they were defeated and ended up drawing 2:2.

As a result, Arsenal's record of 27 consecutive wins in the opening rounds died.

After two rounds of make-up games, Arsenal's record is 26 wins and 1 draw, ranking first with 79 points.

曼城20胜4平3负积64分，排名第2。

曼联19胜3平5负积60分，排名第3。

利物浦54分，切尔西53分和热刺52分排名4~6位。

The scorer list and assist list are still dominated by Martin.

He scored 27 goals and 41 assists in 23 league rounds.

After playing 4 league games in just half a month, Arsenal ushered in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Because the opponent was Sheffield Wednesday, the bottom team in the English Championship, Wenger gave the main players a rest as planned.

Prepare to visit the Allianz Arena (formerly Juventus Arena) in the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals next week to challenge Serie A leader Juventus.

The overall performance was remarkable except for Mkhitaryan who struggled a lot at Hillsborough Stadium.

Aubameyang, Mahrez and Welbeck scored successively to help Arsenal beat Sheffield Wednesday 3:1 as a guest and successfully advance to the next round of the FA Cup.

Juventus head coach Allegri, who came to watch the away game, was very depressed. He wanted to watch Martin's game live, but he didn't attend at all and sat on the bench for 90 minutes.

Back in Turin, Allegri chose to stick to his original plan.

Hold on!

Try not to concede a goal at home as much as possible, and then shrink your defense in the second leg away from home.

It would be better to drag the game into overtime.

When the time comes, a penalty kick will be taken to see whose life is better!

Allegri's idea is also supported by the coaching staff and players.

There is no way, Arsenal's current overall performance is too dominant.

Seven crowns two years in a row.

Attacking is a dead end, and although defense is not much better, at least you can make sure you don't make mistakes first.

Isn't this... there is a plan B?

※※※※※

At the Colney training base, the entire Arsenal team is preparing for the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals at the Allianz Arena next week.

Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan, who joined in the winter window, are exceptions. Since they previously represented Dortmund and Manchester United respectively in the Champions League group stage this season, according to regulations, they cannot represent Arsenal in the knockout rounds this season.

However, according to media reports, such rules may be reformed next season.

The push for rule changes is also related to Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, Liverpool and many other teams that have made large signings in the winter window.

Spending more than 5000 million pounds in transfer fees, but being unable to represent the newly joined team in the knockout rounds due to rules is obviously very unfriendly to the buying club.

Coupled with the fact that many clubs support the specification update, UEFA has plans to follow suit.

According to people familiar with the matter, starting from next season, each team participating in the Champions League can register three players acquired through winter window transactions to participate in the Champions League games that season.

Closer to home, Arsenal's first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals at the Allianz Arena starts at : pm local time on Wednesday.

The entire team took a flight from London to Turin on Tuesday morning.

That night, Real Madrid VS Manchester United and Besiktas VS Bayern.

The most eye-catching focus of the game is undoubtedly Real Madrid's home game against Manchester United.

The most watched of these two games is undoubtedly Real Madrid VS Manchester United.

It is no exaggeration to say that this game has received even more attention than Juventus VS Arsenal.

Real Madrid is the most valuable club in world football today, and Manchester United is the most profitable and among the top three most valuable football clubs.

The most important thing is that the two teams have a close relationship.

Ronaldo, Manchester United's star player at the time, joined Real Madrid with a record transfer fee in world football.

现任曼联的主教练穆里尼奥在2010~2013年带领皇马打破了梦三巴萨对西甲的垄断，在2011-2012赛季更是率先创造联赛百分夺冠，更是创造了单赛季121球纪录。

In the Champions League, it was Mourinho who led Real Madrid out of the fate of being the best in the Champions League for consecutive years after being coached.

If it weren't for the conflicts with the big guys in the locker room later, perhaps more brilliance would have been created.

Although there was a bit of unpleasantness later on, Real Madrid fans still recognized Mourinho's contribution to the team.

There was also the fax machine incident, which also gave the two teams a new line of news.

In addition, Real Madrid won the 2013th Champions League championship in team history in the 2014- season with M Moser Real Madrid as its team.

Modric, who has been the core player for a long time, was also the player Mourinho strongly requested to introduce back then.

Returning to the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid after five years, fans from Real Madrid also miss Mourinho very much.

The whole world's focus is on the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, and Martin and other Arsenal players staying at the hotel in Turin are also paying attention.

Players who are close to each other even make an appointment to watch the live broadcast of the game.

This is a game that does not exist in Martin's memory, just like the European Super Cup that should have happened last summer.
