Chapter 152 Before the Finals
Although it will take another two days to start the Community Shield Finals, George still decided to lead the team to Cardiff, Wales, early to start the field and adapt to the training at the Millennium Stadium.
Be careful not to make a big mistake. This is the principle that George has always firmly followed. Therefore, although Tottenham's opponent in the final is Arsenal, who has repeatedly suffered defeat under his own hands last season, it is always right to be careful. It is much better to prepare as much as possible before the game is better than to wait until the game starts and start to make up for the loss after being caught off guard by his opponent.
What made George feel quite gratified was that Tottenham players did not underestimate Arsenal because of the advantage in the match record. Since the pre-season training, they have been participating in various training sessions of the team in the training ground. Even old men like Edgar Davis who have been living in European football for many years have also performed quite positively in training and played an excellent role in leading the way.
Seeing that the players' training attitudes are so positive, George couldn't help but feel a little confused. After all, for the players who have just returned from vacation, pre-season training is undoubtedly an extremely painful thing. Because players not only have to recover their condition and make good physical reserves in just a few weeks, but also have to reduce the extra fat and weight in their bodies based on the physical examination report prescribed by the team doctor. Therefore, under normal circumstances, players will have some sneering and slickness in the pre-season training, rather than just like now, they are all training enthusiastically on the court like model workers.
Finally, Ronaldo told the whole story during a chat with George: "Boss, although we won the League Cup and FA Cup last season and had the upper hand in the direct confrontation with Arsenal, the reason why no one was satisfied was that we were all dissatisfied with the result of Arsenal's victory!"
No wonder Ronaldo and others had such an idea. After all, in the first half of the league, Tottenham still fought against the leading group in the standings and even occupied the position of the list. However, after entering February, he suddenly left the word "有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有有�
"So, only by teaching Arsenal a lesson in the Community Shield to prove that Tottenham is the strongest team in England, can we extricate the anger in our hearts! In order to achieve this goal, everyone naturally has to work harder in training! In addition, Greece's performance in the European Cup has also greatly touched us. Teams that do not even have a star in Yiyi can win the European Cup in which strong opponents can win the European Cup. Why can't we put Arsenal down, which is not even a top club?!"
Speaking of this, Ronaldo's eyes couldn't help but become a little dark. Obviously, the words just now reminded him of the scene when he lost to Greece twice in the European Cup and passed the nearby Delaune Cup.
Noting the expression of Ronaldo, George, who learned the truth, couldn't help but pat his little brother's shoulder sympathetically. After all, the matter of birth in the European Cup was really too cruel for Ronaldo, a young player who was only nineteen years old.
It would be fine if Portugal lost to top teams like the Netherlands or France in the final, then Ronaldo might not have considered too much, and he would only think that the team is not as strong as the opponent in overall strength. But the key is that Portugal actually lost to Greece twice in the European Cup, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Ronaldo!
However, Ronaldo obviously would not be able to recover from the crowd because of this blow. If his psychological tolerance is so fragile, Ronaldo in his previous life would not have become a top superstar and led Portugal to dominate the European Cup without anyone's favor.
Compared with Tottenham players who are full of confidence and eager to prove themselves by stepping on the corpse of their mortal enemy, Arsenal players are not much worse than those of Tottenham. In other words, the Gunners are even more impatient about this North London derby than Spurs!
Although Arsenal won the league championship last season with an impressive record of losing only yi, the Gunners' poor record in the North London derby, especially the eliminated Tottenham, who were all substitutes in the League Cup and FA Cup, put Wenger and Arsenal players under considerable public pressure. Many people believe that the reason why Arsenal was able to almost win the championship with an unbeaten record was not because of how powerful the Gunners are, but because their competitors have more or less problems, which gave Arsenal the opportunity to dominate the British court!
If this is the case, then Arsenal can still be able to do so at that time they need to concentrate on dealing with the league battlefield as an excuse to make a quibble. However, in the league battlefield, Arsenal also failed to have much advantage in the confrontation with Tottenham. Even the record of unbeaten was ended by Tottenham in the second match. The fact that the dream of winning the championship was shattered has given people more excuses!
In addition, Wenger has learned from his friend David Dane that the reason why the construction of the new stadium is caused by the fact that Tottenham is making trouble behind the scenes. Therefore, the professor's mood to defeat Tottenham head-on is naturally more urgent, because only in this way can he prove that Arsenal is still stronger than Tottenham in terms of strength and calm down those public opinion that is unfavorable to Arsenal!
"Let them see who is the best team in England!" This is the slogan Wenger shouted at the pre-match mobilization meeting before going to Cardiff. "In terms of honor, we are the English champions of last season, Tottenham can only pick up silver medals behind us; in terms of strength, we have the best forwards in the world, the strongest midfielder, the best defender and the best goalkeeper, while Tottenham is a team that is old and young, and has few players who are playing properly. So, as long as we can play at a normal level, then Tottenham has no chance of winning at all!"
With such a big advantage, how could Arsenal lose? Sitting on the train to Cardiff, Wenger thought with confidence. The French can't wait to see the scene of Tottenham being defeated under Arsenal's strong offensive in the Community Shield Final of Yitianhou!
