Chapter 692 Mbapp! Champions League fame!
The first three rounds of the Europa League and the Champions League have both ended recently.
Although there are still three rounds to go in the group stage, there are already certain predictions for qualifying.
First of all, the Europa League.
The most watched is undoubtedly Arsenal!
After experiencing a tortuous defeat in the early stage, Arsenal quickly adjusted their status. Many people think that Arsenal will enter the Europa League knockout round with a record of complete victories.
This is also part of Arsenal's strength.
After all, judging from the current strength of Arsenal, they are a strong team in the Champions League, and it is a bit fishy at the Europa League level.
However, after entering the Europa League knockout rounds, the addition of those Champions League knockout teams will also become some variables.
In addition to Arsenal, the Europa League does not receive much attention. After all, it is far behind the Champions League in terms of competitiveness.
After the three rounds of the UEFA Champions League group stage, the situation of each group has been ups and downs.
For Group A, Paris Saint-Germain, which relied on the strong financial resources of the Qatar consortium, failed to perform as expected, and was even suppressed by Liverpool.
Especially after sending away Ibrahimovic on the front line, their final kick always feels a little bit less interesting.
Liverpool's performance in the Champions League group stage is still good. If they continue to perform in this state, entering the knockout round will not be a problem.
Group B is close in strength. Naples, Benfica, and Besiktas are fighting together. Until the last moment, no one can predict the final promotion quota.
Group C is led by Barcelona. The trident of Messi, Suarez and Neymar showed amazing game dominance. The MSN team defeated Real Madrid strongly in the league and maintained a very high competitive state in the UEFA Champions League group stage.
Manchester City in the same group seemed a bit powerless. Although the lineup seemed to be very strong, it still needed polishing.
A dark horse appeared in Group D. The Russian Super League team Rostov, which participated in the UEFA Champions League for the first time, defeated Bayern Munich at home.
After losing to Rostov, Bayern lost to Atletico Madrid again, and the two-game losing streak made the Bundesliga giants struggling.
In the death group of Group E, the youth storm led by Pochettino was not fully formed and was cut off by Leverkusen and Monaco one after another.
Harry Kane became the only support point in the team.
The firepower of Group F is astonishing, with the Hornets and Galaxy Battleship leading the goal battle.
The Blue Foxes in Group G continue to write legends, beating Porto and leading the standings.
Group H Juventus and Sevilla control the group.
After the three rounds of the Champions League, the most watched name is 'Kylian Mbappe'.
This 19-year-old boy has shown an eye-popping sense of presence in the Monaco lineup, and the crazy absolute speed has caused headaches for many teams.
The most exciting of them is undoubtedly the five-step wading through Tottenham's defense. Tottenham coach Pochettino opened his mouth wide, with a shocked expression on his face.
This 19-year-old French teenager has successfully gained popularity in the Champions League.
During the time when Melo was getting old, the rise of this teenager made many people say that it would be the birth of the next generation of super players.
And Mbappe's performance has not been hindered!
It seems that no one can limit Mbapp in the entire Champions League.
This also made many people start looking for players who can limit Mbapp.
But they found that the most powerful midfielder did not play in the Champions League.
"In the topic of who can stop Mbapp", Lucky became the most anticipated person.
After all, in the Champions League last season, Monaco had a direct dialogue with Arsenal.
In that game, the 18-year-old Mbappe was suppressed by Le Kai. Where there was the crazy performance of this season, in the entire 90 minutes, he didn't get many opportunities at all.
This also hindered the confidence of the teenager Mbappe, and he failed to perform enough in future games.
And in this season, Monaco played well, while Arsenal did not play in the Champions League.
This also made Mbapp start running recklessly.
But what is interesting is that many people chose to ignore the fact that Mbappe was restricted by Le Kai last season, but turned their heads to brag about the French teenager.
Obviously, this is more conducive to increasing the topic and popularity.
"It's so fast!"
A TV is hung in the canteen of Arsenal, and various highlights of the Champions League goals are being played in a loop.
Now the hot Mbappe has become the object of everyone's hot discussion.
"Pierre, is he as fast as you?"
Aubameyang said; "He is faster than me, but the most terrifying thing is the explosive power at the moment of waving the ball. This explosive power can shake off all defensive opponents."
Ramsey grinned; "This type of player is the most annoying. It doesn't need any fake moves at all. It only needs a waving ball, and the defensive player just can't catch up."
"The strength of the midfielders playing in the Champions League is about to rise. Who can stop Mbappe?"
Wilshere said with a smile.
He does not play in the Champions League, so leave this kind of problem to those teams that play in the Champions League.
Immediately, Wilshere turned his attention to Le Kai and said, "Kay, you restricted Mbappe last season. How did you do it?"
Lucky simply said a word about this.
"Prediction!"
Everyone froze for a moment.
Le Kai said: "Speed players like Mbappe are really difficult to deal with. If you insist on competing with them in speed, you will be looking for abuse. Therefore, you need to observe, block and predict every time. Every direction is an opportunity to steal, you only need to quickly separate the man and the ball when changing direction!"
Wilshere and others were confused.
"So, is it necessary to predict?" Wilshere asked again; "How to predict?"
Le Kai said nonsense; "Look at his teammates' running positions, pay attention to his subtle movements, the twist of his shoulders, but don't look at his feet!"
Wilshere was silent for a while, then turned to Kanter and said, "Do you understand?"
Also as a midfielder, he thinks Kanter should understand better.
Regarding this, Kanter shook his head and said; "The captain's stealing style is different from that of the captain's. I can't learn his stealing methods."
Kanter also thought about learning Lucky's stealing method, but he found that he couldn't learn it at all.
At least Lucky's absolute prediction cannot be learned.
Wilshere grinned; "This guy is a monster!"
At the table at the coach's bench, Mourinho is also paying attention to the discussions of the players.
"Tell me, how did Kai's defense work?"
Lucky's defensive action is very simple.
But it just makes people feel uncomfortable.
Let's say he deducts the details, but that's not the case either, the movement range is not large, and the frequency is not fast.
But just being able to reach out and steal at the most suitable time, as if he knew where the ball would go.
"Prediction! Absolute prediction!" Arteta put down his fork and said: "I once played a one-on-one dribble game with him. His ability to predict is terrifying. I even doubt that he can Seeing a corner of the future, predicting it like a prophecy!"
"Sanchez once suspected that Kai would have some oriental wizardry, and his stealing and interception ability is completely incomprehensible!"
Mourinho also nodded.
He has studied Lucky's defensive style, but he has been unable to summarize it, because he can't understand it at all.
When did Lucky shoot, what defensive secrets or habits, etc., none of these!
Every defense is improvised.
As Arteta said, Lucky can predict the future, this guy's defense is so exaggerated.
"where are you going?"
"I'm done eating, I'm going to rest for half an hour, and then train!"
"Training starts at 2 o'clock in the afternoon."
"I know, but you're not going to step on it, are you?"
Wilshere's cheeks twitched, he lowered his head and quickly finished the food on the dinner plate, got up and said, "Let's go!"
Lucky and Wilshere left the cafeteria.
Mourinho looked at this scene with a smile.
There is no head coach who does not like self-disciplined players, and this player also leads others to self-discipline. This is an extremely gratifying thing.
Mourinho brushed honey sauce on the bread, squinting slightly to enjoy.
He's already enjoying the future.
It is undeniable that the lineup of Mourinho components has begun to take effect, and the future Arsenal will surely be the top and even phenomenal team in Europe.
In this regard, Mourinho is convinced.
Mourinho has great ambitions. What he wants to form is a team that can sweep Europe like the Dream Army!
