In January, Arsenal will play seven games, including two league games, two Champions League games, two FA Cup games, and one League Cup semi-final.

The FA Cup third round match against Gansby was very easy. This was a team from England Third Division. The Gunners, who were all substitutes, still informed the opponent with a 6:0 victory that they were in the wrong place.

The opponent in the League Cup semi-finals is Aston Villa. Although this is a League One team, its performance this season is not good and it is almost falling into the relegation zone.

However, there are not many honors that this kind of team can pursue. The League Cup is the only honor they have a chance to get involved in, and they will not lack the will to fight against Arsenal.

But facing Arsenal's semi-main lineup, Aston Villa could only put up a dignified resistance with absolute strength and had to fall to the ground obediently.

In this battle, Graham, at Wu Jie's suggestion, boldly used Michael Thomas and Ruud Gullit to partner in the midfield, and the defense was also a lineup of two veterans and two newcomers.

In the end, thanks to Wu Jie's hat trick, Arsenal used a 4:1 to make people understand that he might really be able to win with a dog.

This situation is not so fair to Laudrup, Gullit, Lineker and others, because their light was all overshadowed by Wu Jie.

At this time, many people felt that their level looked very high, but that was an illusion formed under Wu Jie's leadership. Just like Matthäus looked very strong at the beginning, but once Wu Jie left Bayern under his leadership,

We won't even be able to play in the UEFA Cup next time.

Of course Wu Jie knew that this was a wrong impression caused by objective factors, but this impression was a good thing for him and he would not say anything more about it.

The reason why Arsenal still only fielded half of their main team in this League Cup semi-final is of course to show their best side in the Champions League competition.

Wu Jie has already won four Champions Leagues, but Arsenal rarely even has a chance to go to the Champions League.

Gunners fans have been looking forward to this 32-to-16 first-round match for a long time, and the tickets have been sold to a level that makes even white-collar workers feel heartbroken. Of course, Isabella, who can go to watch the game just three days after giving birth, laughed.

His mouth was crooked.

The opponent Arsenal drew was "Steaua Bucharest" from Romania. Most Gunners fans have never heard of this name, but this is not a good draw.

Wu Jie knew that in the original position, Steaua Bucharest actually defeated Barcelona and won the championship. Their strength was in the first level among the participating teams this year.

Although Steaua Bucharest is only a club from a small Eastern European country, its team has gathered all members of what is known as Romania's golden generation. It can be said that this is Romania's national team.

Although Barcelona in this era is the top club in Europe, losing to a national team ranked in the top 30 in the world is not an unexpected result.

But it's different when it comes to Arsenal. Although the outside world thinks that Laudrup, Gullit, Elkjeer and others only reached their current level under the leadership of Wu Jie, after all, they were at Arsenal before they came to Arsenal.

None of them are truly top-notch players.

However, Wu Jie knew that his second and third bosses were the core of Denmark and England in the 1986 World Cup. Even the fourth boss, fifth boss, sixth boss, and seventh boss were all important players for Denmark, Spain, and the Netherlands. Plus

Not to mention playing against the Romanian national team, he is still not afraid even if it is replaced by the Spanish national team.

Steaua Bucharest's first game is away from home, and Arsenal will of course want to take it away on their own territory to avoid unrealistic illusions about letting the opponent return to their home court.

Arsenal also accomplished the task set before the game. In this game that attracted the attention of the whole Europe, Wu Jie made a long-distance attack like a cheat in the first five minutes, running 60 meters and finishing the goal.

Obviously, the aliens, who have not played in the Champions League for a year, are very excited about this game, but this is as disastrous news to the Romanians.

It’s not that Steaua Bucharest didn’t make targeted arrangements for Wu Jie. Their head coach Emrich said quite proudly before the game: In order to deal with aliens, we have been practicing defensive tactics every day for a month. At this moment, not only

There is Plan A, Plan B, and even Plan C waiting for him!

But all these plans seem to be unable to keep up with the changes during the competition?

Wu Jie's adaptability made all Steaua Bucharest's plans a joke in just one half. In the first half, the score was 2:0. Arsenal had three shots on the door frame. It was not the defense of Steaua Bucharest.

What a success.

In the second half, Gullit, who had just been nicknamed the "Little Alien", used a powerful 40-meter long shot to completely eliminate the suspense of the game.

But the most fatal thing was that at the end of the game, Wu Jie made a cross in the penalty area and helped Lineker score the decisive goal. The suspense of this round of competition was gone.

After the game, the camera kept focusing on Wu Jie.

This was the Alien's first game after returning to the Champions League. His performance of two shots and one pass made the wealthy teams across Europe once again feel the pain of being dominated by the Alien.

Steaua Bucharest head coach Emrich Jenne expressed despair after the game: "Do we have Plan B and Plan C? Yes, we do. But we also need Plan D! We need Plan E!

Maybe 26 letters don’t work. When you meet him, you’ll know what I mean.”

But he really doesn’t need to say this. Which of the top teams in Europe doesn’t know how terrifying aliens are?

"He's back! He's back!!"

"That man, he's back again!"

"This alien coming to London may be even scarier than the Bayern era!"

"..."

The next day, the European media reported Wu Jie's terror in these terms. Who can defeat this unsolvable alien?

European fans feel that there is almost no answer to this question. The only answer now is "young Pele", but if Wu Jie helps the Chinese team win the World Cup, even this answer seems not right.

Speaking of the Chinese team, on this day, under the massacre of Wu Jie's return to the Champions League, many European media actually reported news about a game far away in Asia, although they only used a very small space to report it.

This news comes from the Chinese team's home game against Japan in the top ten. The reason why it was previously said that Japan and the North Baseball League would definitely have no chance of advancing is because their last two games will be played again at the Chinese team's home court.

In this case, of course, it is equivalent to recording a losing record first, and the elimination of these two countries is a foregone conclusion.

But after the game started, the Japanese actually had a little hope.

This is of course not because of drinking water from the Ganges River, but because the Chinese team is simply too arrogant.

They actually fielded Wang Yuanlin, who is only 16 and a half years old, in this game!

Taking into account the 17-year-old Yang Shuhua and Zheng Guohong, as well as the 19-year-old Ge Guangxing, this really does not look down upon the Japanese.

The average age of the Chinese team's starting lineup has therefore dropped to 21 years old. This is truly an Olympic team.

Wu Sheng and Fan Zhiyi were only 15 years old at the time. They watched on the scene as their old teammates who had beaten them for two years actually became a member of the national team at the age of 16 and broke the smallest national team in Asia.

The appearance record makes me feel so happy!

But jealousy can't be helped. Wang Yuanlin's talent is not inferior to that of Ren Zhihui and Yang Shuhua. Of course, the Football Association wants to take advantage of the new regulations to sell this talent at a high price.

Although Wu Jie feels that it is a bit too hasty, he also agrees that it would be better for such talents to train in European teams. It would be better if they could train with the first team.

Domestic leagues are now making great progress in all aspects, but it is impossible to catch up with the level of European football that has been developed for a century in four or five years.

Wang Yuanlin and Wu Sheng were bought by teams such as Arsenal, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Milan. Even if they can't play with the first team for the time being, the training effect is actually better than in China.

It will take at least ten years for the domestic environment to be able to have the opportunity to train such talents in the country until they are in their twenties, and then go to Europe after becoming famous.

The "genius clause" in the regulation that "forbids players under the age of 24 to play abroad" is a backdoor for such talents.

The Japanese don't know how powerful this little guy is. How powerful can they think a 16-year-old genius can be?

But I'm sorry, although players who have played in Europe's top leagues at the age of 16 are rare in history, it is definitely not the case.

Although the Japanese team is a national team, its strength is still far behind the teams in the relegation zones of the five major leagues.

So having Wang Yuanlin start the game at the age of 16 seems too contemptuous.

But in terms of the strength of both sides, Wang Yuanlin himself felt that the intensity of this game was actually not as good as the Group AB match where the Olympic team competed for the starting spot.

After the game started, the Japanese team quickly found out that they were at an absolute disadvantage and maybe they were not being underestimated?

Because from the first minute of the game, the ball was firmly controlled by the young players of the Chinese team.

The Chinese team's style is influenced by Wu Jie. On the offensive end, they have always emphasized ensuring ball possession. Especially when the opponent is not strong enough, they must control the ball.

However, while ensuring possession of the ball, individual players must not be too attached to the ball. Unless there is a breakthrough opportunity, the ball must be released within two goals. It is best to release the ball with one kick, and then tear it apart with the cooperation of the players' triangle position.

A direct pass, or a sudden crossing after a back and forth lateral movement, helps the star on the wing create a single breakthrough opportunity.

Today, the combination of the National Olympic team + the National Youth team used the offensive method they have been training for five years to fully demonstrate the modified Tiki-Taka style of play.

The first goal in the first half was a series of V-shaped and Λ-shaped passes in the midfield and frontcourt. Suddenly, the senior rookie Wu Qunli passed a through ball. After Ge Guangxing stepped forward to get the ball, he immediately used his personal ability to attack the hinterland.

.

Half of the Japanese team's defense was penetrated by this tearing pass, and soon the other half was torn and shattered by Ge Guangxing's flea-like breakthrough.

Ge Guangxing passed two people and successfully broke into the penalty area. Then he faked a spike and knocked the last defender to the ground.

Ge Guangxing usually has a very unique playing style, but at this moment, when he was able to push the ball from a small angle, he actually gave the ball to Wang Yuanlin in front of the small penalty area.

At this time, Wang Yuanlin also had the opportunity to create the youngest national team scoring record in Asia, but he also did not shoot directly, but very maturely knocked the ball to Yang Shuhua, who had an empty goal.

Yang Shuhua is now regarded by Chinese fans as an enhanced version of Lineker, and he will naturally not miss such a scoring opportunity. He helped Wang Yuanlin create a new record of "the youngest assist in an Asian A-level competition".

Wu Jie was not unhappy at all. Although it was his record that was broken, even if the scoring record was broken, he would only be happy now, not unhappy!

The games after this are basically the performance time for the young players of the Chinese team.

Wang Yuanlin's breakthrough on the wing is like being in no one's land. The gorgeous skills brought by his excellent ball sense, combined with the four-and-a-half-star athletic ability, face Japan, which does not even have three-star athletic ability.

Defenders, of course, can be eaten alive if they want, and knocked down if they want.

The Chinese team's second goal was when Wang Yuanlin knocked down a defensive player on the right, used his speed to beat the defensive player alive, inserted into the penalty area and passed the ball to Yang Shuhua, helping the latter easily complete the goal.

Before the end of the first half, Wang Yuanlin broke into the penalty area from the left again this time, and then passed back from the inverted triangle. Yang Shuhua once again followed up and pushed the ball to complete the goal.

Now the Japanese players and Japanese fans all collapsed!

A 16-and-a-half-year-old player created a hat-trick of assists in the first half, and a 17-and-a-half-year-old player created a hat-trick of goals in the first half!

How can they play with this?

Is this game too difficult?
