Chapter 76 Give Kai enough freedom

As Christmas is approaching, Arsenal fans are not in a beautiful mood.

In the past few games, Arsenal's form has been up and down, not stable.

They can beat West Brom 4-0 away, but they can also lose 2-0 at home to Swansea.

The fourteenth round, Everton 1-1 Arsenal.

In the fifteenth round, Arsenal 0-2 Swansea.

In the 16th round, West Brom 0-4 Arsenal.

The 17th round, Reading 2-5 Arsenal.

The eighteenth round, Wigan Athletic 0-1 Arsenal.

After the fifth round, Arsenal have 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. The overall state winning percentage looks good, but the problem of the ups and downs of the state is extremely serious.

In the absence of Cazorla and Wilshere, Arsenal's midfield has ushered in a huge challenge.

Arteta was forced to carry all the pressure.

But Arteta's performance was not enough to fill Cazorla's vacancy, and even the defense of Lucky and Ramsey running behind and breaking their legs couldn't fill the attacking flaw.

In five games, Lucky was the best performance in two of them.

is the fourteenth round and the eighteenth round respectively.

In the fourteenth round of the offense and defense against Everton, Lucky's defensive ability sniped Everton's offense again and again.

In the commentary's words, 'He took down Everton's attacking line all by himself! '

Although a bit exaggerated, the same can be said.

This game was the most difficult game Lekai had ever played. The offensive and defensive battle between the two teams was incredibly fast-paced.

And when Arsenal's offense was slow to play, the pressure all came to the defense.

If it wasn't for the defenses of Luckey and Vermaelen, they wouldn't have been able to win the draw.

In this game, Le Kai didn't score or assist, but he won the best title and rating with 5 steals, 4 interceptions and 4 damages.

Lucky's performance made Arsenal fans happy, but at the same time they were full of worries about Arsenal's future.

After all, Wilshere has already announced that the season will be reimbursed.

Cazorla's injury can be expected to come back, but according to the news released by the club, it has to wait until April.

How Arsenal survive this period is a question.

Although doing well so far, what about the future.

What if you get hurt again?

Now Arsenal fans' hopes are all pinned on Arteta, and if this guy gets injured, everything will be ruined.

But the blessings are unparalleled, and the misfortunes do not come singly.

In the 19th round, Arsenal played against West Ham United at home.

In this game, Arsenal relied on Arteta's excellent performance to win the game with a score of 5-1.

But the fans weren't happy for long when a distraught West Ham United player shoveled directly into Arteta's ankle.

There was no accident, Arteta was injured.

And this also completely blew up Arsenal. Le Kai rushed over almost immediately and was about to beat the 'butcher'. Even the captain Vermaelen rushed over. If the referee hadn't appeared immediately, it might have developed into an accident. Vicious brawl.

In the end, the West Ham United player was red carded and more likely to face the danger of suspension.

But Arsenal's losses were even worse.

Arteta was injured and the only midfielder who supported him left.

In Arsenal's injury list, another main spot has been added.

Arsenal injury list: Wilshere (season out), Cazorla, Arteta, Szczesny, Arshavin and Rosicky.

Arsenal's bench is not thick enough, and this series of injuries has made them even worse.

Kearney Training Base, Medical Room.

Arteta was sitting on the hospital bed with his ankle in a plaster cast, next to the coach headed by Wenger.

Arteta's face was bitter, while Wenger and others stared at Arteta's ankle in a daze.

The team doctor said with a wry smile: "The ankle is dislocated, it will take at least 6-8 weeks to recuperate, and it will take nearly three months to recover!"

Hearing this, Wenger turned to look at Levin, the team doctor, and asked, "Is there a way to make him recover quickly?"

Team doctor Levin shook his head; "There is no way! The current situation is not optimistic."

Wenger pondered again.

After a moment, Wenger patted Arteta on the shoulder.

"have a good rest!"

Immediately, he left the ward.

At this moment, Wenger's shoulders drooped down, and the stormy Arsenal ushered in another heavy blow.

got rid of the predicament at the beginning of the season, but fell into consecutive injuries in the middle of the season. Several midfielders were all injured, leaving only three or two big fish and small fish.

Arsenal's possession base has all been stripped clean.

Wilshere, Cazorla, Arteta, Rosicky, anyone can keep one of them!

But he never thought that one day all four of them would be injured.

And it will take 2-3 months to recover.

What does this mean?

The end of the season is about 2-3 months away. How can Arsenal stabilize the situation and compete for more points?

Wenger suddenly felt very tired.

Van Persie played a full game last season, so Arsenal can skyrocket and get a relatively satisfactory result.

But the problem this season is not in the striker, but in the more deadly midfield!

All four generals are lying on the hospital bed!

Who can they rely on?

How will Arsenal's pass continue?

Ramsay? Diaby? Kirkland? Chamberlain or Lucky?

One of these people counts as one, can they do meticulous work?

No!

not a single one!

Walking out of the medical room, Wenger found that the first team players did not leave, they stood at the door and looked at himself eagerly.

Wenger glanced, he looked at Vermaelen, Chamberlain, Walcott, Podolski, Suarez and Luckey.

There seemed to be something surging in his eyes. After a while, he said, "Go back. The specific news will be announced tomorrow."

Lekai stepped forward; "Arteta's injury"

Wenger waved his hand: "I said, go back!"

Le Kai nodded helplessly, and everyone dispersed, but everyone had a depressed look on their faces.

After everyone left, Patrice came out.

He stood beside Wenger, looked at each other, and said, "How do we play next?"

The problem has already happened, they can't feel sorry for themselves, what is needed now is to solve the problem.

After the lack of three generals, how Arsenal should behave is the key.

Wenger pondered for a moment, looked into the distance, and said slowly: "I once said that football is to please the fans, to give the fans enough enjoyment, so I must take the initiative in the game, so I don't like Moulini. Oh."

Wenger paused for a moment, giving Patrice a chance to interject.

But Patrice didn't respond, he squinted at Wenger, a tone he was familiar with.

That's what this guy said last year when he was talking about 'Iron Spirit and Tech Factors' in the office.

Mourinho is the representative of defense first and the representative of defensive counterattack.

This contradicts Wenger's 'football' theory.

The two were silent for a long time. Seeing that Patrice was useless to respond, Wenger could only continue embarrassedly: "But we don't have a championship."

Patrice said directly; "Do you want to play a defensive counterattack?"

Wenger: "."

After a moment, he sighed; "Do we have any other way?"

Patrice also sighed, as Wenger said, they had no choice.

If Cazorla, Arteta, and Wilshere, as long as one remains, they can continue to play pass-and-control tactics.

These three injuries completely shattered Arsenal's passing control factor.

They can't expect Ramsay, Chamberlain and Lucky to do this kind of work, they can't do it at this stage.

"You said, given enough freedom to Kai, how much can he do on the defensive end?"

Wenger said suddenly.

This sentence made Patrice stunned for a moment.

In fact, Luckey is in a shackled state in Arsenal's lineup and tactical system.

Because of the focus on regional defense, Lucky has a special defense area. Many times, he cannot choose to defend on his own, but is forced to stay in place.

Although formed a linkage with the whole, it sacrificed part of Lucky's defensive ability.

Today's Lucky is only a part of Arsenal's defensive end, far from giving enough resources to tilt and the treatment of the defensive core.

But even so, Le Kai still scored an average of 4 steals and 4 interceptions per game, which is already amazing.

But what if he was completely liberated?

Patrice narrowed his eyes slightly, he didn't know what was going to happen.

may still be the same data.

Or maybe, the data will show explosive growth.

But what is certain is that once you decide to play a defensive counterattack, Lekai will be the absolute core of both offense and defense.

is the core of defense and the core of fast break.

Lekai's key passing ability is one of the best in Arsenal.

His long pass, short pass, arc pass and even through ball are involved, and he can play various styles of counter-attacks.

And Arsenal also fulfilled all the necessary conditions for the counter-attack.

There are fast players such as Podolski, Suarez and Walcott in the frontcourt.

The midfield also has Chamberlain, Ramsey and Lucky.

Chamberlain's speed and ability to score are all weapons in defensive counterattacks.

The conditions are met, it depends on whether Arsenal can play.

If he can really kick out the effect, then Wenger doesn't mind being a joke in other people's mouths.

First place!

Champion is everything!

Whether winning the championship with beautiful football or winning the championship with a defensive counterattack, as long as the champion is a hero in the media and fans.

The so-called pleasing fans, isn't it to win the **** championship?

Even if you play beautifully, losing is losing!

Therefore, even if the game is ugly, Wenger will win this time!
