MTL - Strong Waist-Chapter 854 Season opener Tottenham

  Christmas is just around the corner. Based on the importance attached to Christmas in the West, many clubs have already begun to prepare some welfare links in advance.

  For example, Arsenal players have to cooperate with the club to carry out some publicity and sympathy work in addition to the recent training, and even invite fans to visit the club and give some small gifts and the like.

   Lucky naturally needs to cooperate with the club's celebrations. As Arsenal's captain and the most famous player, Lucky's popularity and influence have increased his recent tasks.

  However, the coaching staff tried their best to help Le Kai select some activity tasks, so that he would not be entangled in these trivial matters.

   But even so, every afternoon, Lucky needs to cooperate with the club to shoot some videos and greetings.

  And if there are fans visiting, Lucky also needs to act as a tour guide and reception.

   Today's fan group comes from a nursing home, and it is not an easy job to act as a tour guide for a group of elderly people, not to mention some old hooligans.

   These people are very obsessed with memories, most of the old things they talk about, some things and the names of players Lucy has never even heard of.

   When it came to Tottenham, a look of disdain flashed in the eyes of these old Arsenal fans.

  “Tottenham used to lick their faces and become derby rivals with us, who will respond to them!”

  An old fan wearing a red hat said with disdain; "Tottenham is just trying to catch our heat!"

  In fact, Tottenham in the last century was really not a strong team. When facing Arsenal, they had to be beaten unilaterally.

  The rise of Tottenham is also a recent thing.

  Of course, they are willing to take the initiative to talk about Tottenham, which is also confirmed from the side. Although they look down on Tottenham, they still feel that Tottenham is full of threats.

   "We're going to win Tottenham right? Captain?"

  The old fan shouted at Lucky.

   Lucky didn't turn his head back; "Of course, we will win!"

   Lucky's answer was decisive, which made the old fans behind him laugh heartily.

  They like Lucky's domineering response and attitude.

  The visit ended when it was close to 3 o'clock.

   Lucky sent these old fans to the bus, and then returned to the office of team manager Martin Hughes.

   "I'm so exhausted!"

   Lucy lay directly on the reception sofa, helplessly said; "Maybe you can find other people to do this job!"

  Martin Hughes said with a smile; "They just want to see you!"

   Le Kai grinned; "However, my energy is limited, and today's strength training cannot be carried out again."

   Lucky has strict control over his training, and he hates things that break his training plan.

   But there are some things, even if he wants to refuse.

   "Be patient, the last batch is left!"

  Martin Hughes comforted Lucy a little, and immediately said: "At least until the next game, there is nothing to do, there are three days left, you should be able to adjust."

   Le Kai nodded and said; "This away game is not easy!"

   "Tottenham is strong?" Martin Hughes looked at Le Kai and said.

   Le Kai pondered for a moment and said: "Their state fluctuates severely, and I dare not guarantee it, but once they are kicked out of state, it will be very difficult to deal with."

   In fact, Tottenham's combat effectiveness is very strong, but the state is always in an unstable situation.

  This is why they always lose points inexplicably.

  In addition to the excellent competitive state of a strong team, how to maintain and stabilize the state is also the top priority.

  For example, Manchester City, the group that has maintained a stable state is still undefeated.

  "Pochettino is indeed an excellent head coach!"

   Pochettino was unknown before he came to Tottenham, but now Pochettino has won the title of European Young Coach, and can be said to be one of the representatives of the young coaches.

   You know, the last one to get this title was Mourinho.

   It can be seen how much football recognizes Pochettino.

  "The next game must be won, and it is a big problem for the fans to have a bad Christmas."

  Martin Hughes said with a smile.

   Lucky said unhappily; "Don't put pressure on us!"

  Everyone wants to have a good Christmas, but the result of the game cannot be won by talking about it.

  The two chatted for a while, and Le Kai left.

   In the next three days, Lucky's training plan became regular.

  Without the interference of trifles, Le Kai also devoted himself to preparing for the battle.

  And other Arsenal players are also under the leadership of Lucky, constantly adjusting their state, and strive to meet the game in the best state.

  The same is true for Tottenham on the other side.

   With the enemy at hand, neither team can relax.

  Tottenham want to beat Arsenal!

  Arsenal naturally does not want to lose to Tottenham.

   Even though it is Tottenham's home court, Arsenal have won many games at White Hart Lane, and they are not afraid of it.

   Time flies by.

   Soon came the day of the game.

  December 14, the 17th round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur VS Arsenal.

   This North London focus battle is about to start.

  Before the game, the fans of both sides started a fierce verbal battle based on this belated derby.

  Derby is full of gunpowder, and offline real PK is also everywhere.

  In order to deal with this game, the London police once again dispatched all staff to regulate the activities of fans.

  In this atmosphere, the Arsenal bus drove slowly in the direction of White Hart Lane.

  Although they are both in North London, Arsenal players rarely go to the gathering place of Tottenham fans, which is where White Hart Lane is located.

  Especially for players as bright as Lucky, once they appear there, there may be some problems.

   Even the Arsenal team regulations have made special emphasis on this.

   Even if you go to a certain shopping mall in that area, you still need to dress up in disguise, and retreat immediately after shopping, and you can't stay longer.

   You can also see the contradictions between the two teams.

  When the Arsenal bus stopped at the entrance of the White Hart Lane Stadium, there was a sudden fierce 'boo' in the sky.

  These Tottenham fans didn’t know where they saw their arrival. They clearly separated the fans of the two teams, but they still ‘welcome’ Arsenal in this way.

  Faced with fierce boos, angry Arsenal fans began to flock to the other side of the street, wanting to teach Tottenham fans a lesson.

   But was quickly forced back by the heavily armed police.

  At the same time, the police also urged Arsenal to enter the field quickly to avoid any accidents.

   Lucky and the others are also low-key quick entry, and they don't want to cause trouble here.

   After entering the arena, enter the visiting team's locker room under the guidance of the staff.

  When the players from both sides made their warm-up appearances, the Tottenham fans gave their team cheers of encouragement, while what was left to Arsenal was harsh boos.

  Amidst the boos, Arsenal completed their warm-up and returned to the locker room for final adjustments.

  The same is true for Tottenham.

  In the end, the starting lineups of both sides were determined.

  Arsenal (4-3-3):

  Goalkeeper: Martinez.

  Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.

  Midfielders: Kanter, Wilshere, Lucky.

  Forwards: Aubameyang, Giroud, Mane.

  Tottenham Hotspur (4-2-3-1):

  Goalkeeper: Lori.

  Defenders: Trippier, Vertonghen, Sanchez, Davis.

  Midfielders: Eriksson, Winks, Ali, Dell, Sun Xingmin.

  Forward: Harry Kane.

   Facing Arsenal, Pochettino put away the three-back formation he always played before, and assumed a solid four-back position.

   Obviously the Dortmund game in the Champions League is still fresh in their memory.

  Placing three backs in front of Arsenal is really no different from courting death.

   Pochettino is a man who knows how to be flexible, so he decisively gave up his previous tactical play and greeted the game with a more stable posture.

  In the lineup, both sides are the main players.

   After all, it is a derby, no one will relax.

   In terms of injury rate, the situation of the two teams is similar.

  Arsenal injured Lukaku here, while Tottenham injured Lamela here.

  But these two players are no longer irreplaceable figures in the team, so it doesn't hurt.

  When the players from both sides came to the player channel, the atmosphere in the channel suddenly became dignified.

  The players of both teams were sullen, with fierce expressions on their faces.

  The game has not yet started, but the two sides have begun to confront each other mentally, refusing to give in and targeting each other.
