Chapter 144 Arsenal’s bad fortune

The schedule is getting tighter and tighter, and the intensity of the games is getting higher and higher. Coupled with the fact that there is not enough rest, Arsenal can be said to have suffered a big schedule loss.

But there was nothing they could do about it. They were unlucky in the draw, and Arsenal fans also felt a little regretful about this.

If they had better luck in the draw, they wouldn't be so passive now.

After playing Barcelona in the Champions League, it was not fatal to Arsenal, but it also had a great physical impact on them to a large extent.

Mourinho wanted to slow down and slow down the pace, but they had already entered the final period. At this time, it was the stage of crazy scoring, and they couldn't slow down at all.

Therefore, all Arsenal can do is bite the bullet and stand firm.

This is especially true for Arsenal players such as Lucky.

The outside media also have a little sympathy for Arsenal's situation.

Arsenal's performance in the Champions League already deserves great recognition.

Fighting their way out of the death group and defeating Bayern Munich and Barcelona, ​​Arsenal's performance can be described as extremely outstanding.

But how long can they last in such a tough schedule?

You know, this may be one of the rare devilish schedules in the previous Champions League.

The determination of the upper and lower halves of the Champions League is largely to relieve the pressure on the team, but when it comes to Arsenal, it has become a part of increasing the pressure.

Faced with this situation, the British "London Sports News" said:

"Arsenal's performance is worthy of recognition. Even if they failed, they lost to a bad schedule, not to any team!"

"The Gunners' performance in the Champions League this season is unique. No team has been in the same state as them, but their schedule is really terrible!"

"The double pressure of the league and the Champions League, and the devilish schedule in the Champions League makes every step for them very difficult!"

"In the last round of games, Arsenal defeated Barcelona. We can feel that Arsenal was tired in the second half of that game. In the next game, will they be able to show their previous performance? Performance?"

"A well-rested Arsenal is invincible, and the current Gunners may really face the biggest challenge in this Champions League!"

French "Paris":

"We need to admit that Arsenal are already doing much better than most teams in the Champions League, but their bad luck will ruin everything!"

Italian "Apennine Evening News":

"Zidane and Real Madrid will 'steal' victory from Arsenal. Even if they win, it is not worthy of praise because they beat an Arsenal that has been severely weakened by many fierce games! "

German "Kicker":

"Mourinho, Key, Arsenal, their performance is seen by everyone, and we hope Arsenal can perform better!"

Many media and the public have expressed that they support Arsenal even more.

Perhaps in the match between the two teams, more people choose to support the weak. Arsenal is not weak, but they are on a passive side in their current state.

Wilshere and Ramsey have not recovered from their injuries, and the midfield rotation cannot be carried out.

This also means that players such as Lucai basically do not get any rest time.

Mane's red card suspension in the Champions League continues, and Arsenal can only rely on teenager Saka on the right wing.

But the most serious problem is physical fitness.

These are telling everyone how bad Arsenal's situation is.

Compared with Real Madrid, which has strong troops and horses, Arsenal is indeed a bit dilapidated.

But some people believe that Arsenal can win the game. After many battles, Arsenal is better at playing such tough games.

But these are basically die-hard Arsenal fans, and they all trust Arsenal unconditionally.

With such an atmosphere, Arsenal ushered in their 35th round of the league.

Arsenal plays West Ham United at home.

Faced with such a situation, Arsenal, the Hammers, couldn't help but have some thoughts.

In the last game between Arsenal and Newcastle, Arsenal's performance was extremely passive.

They even scored late in the game.

Looking at the 90-minute game, Arsenal has a lot of problems.

The most critical thing is that their tactical connection is no longer so close. Many times, there are some loose situations due to the decline in physical fitness and state.

This might be West Ham's chance.

And West Ham United doesn't want much, they just want a draw.

Of course, if there is a chance, it would be an unexpected surprise to score a goal and win.

"A goal? Really? God!

In the first 5 minutes of the game, West Ham United scored a goal with a quick counterattack. During the whole process, Arsenal's retracement speed was too slow. West Ham United seized the opportunity and scored from their midfielder. Portuguese player Joao Mario scored a goal! "

"Mario seemed very excited. This is his first time scoring against Arsenal and his sixth goal this season!"

"Arsenal, on the other hand, are still in a dazed state. They don't seem to have reacted!"

Lucky stopped.

He wasn't panting either, but he was sweating profusely.

Just five minutes into the game, the jersey was already soaked through.

The situation is similar for other Arsenal players.

Lucky also needs to admit that at the beginning of the game, both he and his teammates were a little distracted.

In other words, they are a little unexcited.

The whole person was in a daze, as if he hadn't woken up.

Lucky gently slapped his face to wake him up a little, then clapped his hands and shouted to his teammates:

"Hey! Guys, it's time for us to wake up. This is not the rhythm of our football!"

Hearing this, the Arsenal players also sighed depressedly.

This is really not Arsenal's style.

But it has to be said that West Ham United seized this opportunity and put Arsenal in an extremely passive situation.

After conceding the ball, Arsenal returned to half-court and prepared for kick-off.

When Giroud restarted the game, they discovered a problem.

West Ham retreated, not one or two, but almost all of them.

Except for the center, everyone else retreated to the half-court area and started to defend. This is the rhythm of the bus.

After scoring a goal, he immediately started to defend with a bus and defend the point.

I have to say, this style is a bit like Mourinho's.

"Damn West Ham, their choice is disgraceful!"

Mourinho on the sidelines couldn't help but curse, not knowing that when he was coaching Inter Milan, other Italian coaches scolded him in the same way.

Arteta's face was also full of worry.

The situation was originally wrong, but now that they were falling behind, the opponent retreated completely.

It has to be said that West Ham United seized an extremely precious opportunity.

And now they have made the most correct decision for West Ham United.

This game is not easy to play.

Arsenal also discovered the problem.

After a strong attack for a while, Lucky felt that continuing to play like this was not the answer. They could not force it, but slowly relied on changes in rhythm to contain the opponent's defense.

"Play more patiently!" Lucky continued to shout after reminding his teammates; "Go back a little and try more long shots!"

Hearing this, Arsenal's two wingers are no longer trying to break through.

Of course, if there is a chance, they will still play from the wing, but the current situation is that West Ham United is stationed in the penalty area in large numbers, and Arsenal does not have much room to move and run.

West Ham United occupied the space inside the penalty area.

What Arsenal have to do now is to patiently pass and receive the ball to lure West Ham out.

You can’t make mistakes in this process, and you must be patient.

When the opportunity comes, strike quickly and score.

Arsenal began to patiently look for opportunities around West Ham United's penalty area.

They passed the ball up and down, forward and back, constantly tempting the opponent's defense to attack outwards. Several of the passes were a bit wide, as if they were deliberately exposing flaws.

Seeing Arsenal's passing situation, the West Ham United players also looked confused.

What if there is a chance to expand the score?

Is a two-goal lead safer?

But soon, they shook their heads and threw the thought out of their minds.
