"One day before the North London Derby, assistant coach Steve Bould burst into Wenger's office worriedly

"What's wrong?"

Wenger's heart skipped a beat.

Normally Steve Bould wouldn't just barge in like this without knocking on the door.

Unless there was something unexpected.……

"It's Oliver, he may not be able to hold on anymore."

Oliver Giroud!

Wenger frowned.

This is bad!

"How is it going? Have you checked?"

"The team doctor’s preliminary judgment is that it will take at least 6 months"

"so long?"

Wenger was completely shocked. Is Arsenal really so doomed?

He hurried over with assistant coach Steve Bold to check Giroud's injury.

It turned out that the tall French center was in a non-confrontational state. , he fell to the ground holding his leg.

The team doctor's examination showed that the hamstring muscle on the back of the thigh was injured, which may be related to the recent intensive schedule.

Moreover, Giroud is over 31 years old and is on the decline of his career. It's easy to get injured.

His hamstring has been injured before, maybe it's a recurrence of an old injury, and he still needs to go to the hospital for diagnosis.

In short, Wenger will have to consider how the team's offense will work without Giroud. Play.

In fact, as long as Su Yu doesn't have a problem, it won't be desperate if anyone else has a problem.

Su Yu's role in the frontcourt cannot be replaced. It's just that everyone else plays around Su Yu.

Everyone has a certain task.

For example, Giroud's task is to be an arrow or a nail stuck between the opponent's two central defenders.

You can't completely ignore a world-class forward like Giroud. Right?

As long as the defender's attention is distracted, Su Yu can get more opportunities to break through.

Otherwise, Su Yu will be too physically exhausted and it will be difficult to perform at his upper limit.

317 At the same time, Giroud can help Su Yu in addition to grabbing points. In addition, he also has finishing ability.

Giroud has also scored 6 goals in the Premier League this season. Apart from Su Yu, he is the team's second-leading scorer.

With him in the frontcourt, Arsenal can play more smoothly. Some.

Now that Giroud is injured, the frontcourt can only rely on Welbeck, Iwobi, Sanchez, Walcott and others, so Welbeck and Su Yu have to be replaced. , playing the originally designed tactics?

That requires others to have the ability to threaten and seize the opportunities created by Su Yu.

Otherwise, the whole team might as well create opportunities for Su Yu.

But the problem comes again, Su Yu can't take it. Going up, should Welbeck be in front?

Seeing that there is a North London derby against Tottenham in one day, the players may be a little uncomfortable with the sudden change of tactics to

4-4. -1-1 formation, let Welbeck try it out, and then adjust slowly, and deal with the next two tough battles first!

……

Mauricio Pochettino is carefully watching the video of Arsenal vs Manchester City in the office building of White Hart Lane Stadium.

The assistant coach knocked on the door and came in, whispering excitedly in his ear.

"Mauricio, there is good news. Giroud is injured and has been out for 6 months. He will definitely not be able to appear in this game."

"This is not good news, I thought the Eastern Devils were injured. Tottenham

Hotspur coach Pochettino sighed.

"However, Giroud does play a big role in Arsenal's offense. Su Yu performed well in the last round, and it was also inseparable from Giroud's (aiaf) containment."

Giroud kept running, making Otamendi and Stones uneasy, and the burden of defense was entirely on Fernandinho.

Without Giroud, it would be difficult for others to have the same effect.

You can arrange your own manpower and devote some energy to taking care of Su Yu, preventing him from easily catching the ball and breaking through easily.

It is always to our own advantage if the opponent loses one of his generals before the derby.

"Then we can withdraw our marking tactics against Giroud and let them pay more attention to Su Yu."

"Whether Wenger replaces Welbeck or allows Theo Walcott to advance, the threat is not that great."

"Also, give the order. Practice more tackles and increase physical confrontation in defense!"

Pochettino clenched his fists.

This game is a derby!

The first hot derby Su Yu has encountered since coming to the Premier League!

Let me give you a long experience!

……

White Hart Lane, home of Tottenham Hotspur.

In order to prepare for this battle against their old rival Arsenal, Tottenham fans came to the scene early and began to prepare their own props to warmly"welcome" their opponents.

The feud between Arsenal and Tottenham began in 1887 and continues to this day.

Even if there was no particularly great hatred at the beginning, after more than 100 years of struggle, the situation has long been a non-stop situation. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Around the 1960s, Tottenham had a period of glory.

Ever since the Premier League was established and Arsene Wenger took charge of Arsenal, they have always outperformed Tottenham.

In recent years, as Arsenal's strength has further declined, Tottenham has gradually risen, and the strength gap between the two teams has gradually narrowed.

Last season, Tottenham were ranked above Arsenal[]

If Liverpool hadn't stepped in, Tottenham would still be laughing at Arsenal for not playing in the Champions League.

For Arsenal, who had just beaten Manchester City, it was not a good thing to encounter Tottenham at this time.

This north London derby also attracted many comments from British football celebrities before the game.

Former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas commented:

"White Hart Lane is one of the stadiums I least want to go to. You will be disturbed by the loud boos and noises every moment, and it is difficult to calm down and think about the situation on the field."

"The difference between a derby game and other leagues is that other teams are just opponents, while derby opponents are enemies! This is the damn war!"

"In a heated atmosphere, fighting spirit and mentality will directly affect the results of the game, and the technical gap will be infinitely narrowed. I'm very optimistic about Su Yu's performance, but this battle is a real test for him……"

Nasri, who has been talking a lot during this period, also stood up and commented:

"I bet that Su Yu, who had a smooth sailing before, will definitely stumble here. White Hart Lane is no ordinary stadium……"

Arsenal star Henry also said:

"Giroud's injury is not good news for Arsenal. I believe in Wenger's deployment, and I also believe in the ability of the young man from the East. He will definitely lead the team to win."

"But, for some reason, I'm a little worried...In derby games, there are always various surprises."

Soon, Tottenham stars also joined in to exaggerate the atmosphere of the derby.

Currently playing for Real Madrid, former Tottenham player Gareth Bale pointed out:

"I once participated in the North London Derby, which was indeed a difficult battle. I believe Tottenham players will do everything possible to defeat Arsenal. No matter how strong Su Yu is, they will not be afraid. Su, you have to be careful."

Tottenham's current star and top scorer Harry Kane:

"We will beat Arsenal, there is no doubt that they will not leave White Hart Lane alive"

"As for Su Yu, I believe that his teammates will completely restrain him."

Tottenham's main defender Ben Davis even mocked:

"Su Yu? This time I will let him see the real Premier League. The previous defender was too kind to him. Maybe he was too embarrassed to be cruel because he was a child. Then I won't be polite……"

Ben Davis bared his teeth in front of the camera lens, deliberately pretending to be fierce.

There was a player with an oriental face passing by, but he was stopped again by the sharp-eyed reporter.

"Sun! Sun! Wait a minute, what do you think of this north London derby? What do you think of Su Yu, who is in hot form recently? Seeing that he couldn't hide, Sun Xingmin had to take off his headphones to accept the interview.

Sun Xingmin simply envied and hated Su Yu, who was also an East Asian.

He envied him for being able to become the core of Arsenal when he first came and to quickly establish himself in the Premier League.

He originally started from Hamburg also suffered a lot when he joined Tottenham and was benched a lot.

When he was in the Bundesliga, he didn't have such smooth sailing. Sun

Xingmin was really sad to see Su Yu dominate the Bundesliga in his debut season!

That's it. There are so many geniuses in the world, but there is always someone better than him.

But Sun Xingmin is always praised to the sky by the Bangzi media.

The Bangzi media likes to compare himself with Su Yu, saying that he is"." Asian brother","Easily beat Su Yu"……

However, the fans from Bangzi Country really believed it. They fought with Su Yu’s fans on social networks everywhere, arguing that he was the strongest Asian player in the Premier League.

The two groups even started arguing directly in the comment area of Son Heung-min's Twitter, and the quarrel was intense.

Sometimes Tottenham teammates will make fun of themselves with the ignorant comments of stick netizens.

This made Sun Xingmin very embarrassed.

He is very aware that there is still a gap between himself and Su Yu.

At most, his speed with the ball is better than Su Yu's. In terms of technical details and shooting efficiency, the gap is too far.

Before this game, the media was also exaggerating.

Tottenham would definitely be able to stop Arsenal and completely freeze Su Yu. Sun Heung-min, the light of Asia, scored a hat trick...

Sun Heung-min wanted to cry but had no tears. This was simply putting himself on the line. Roast over fire.

There is no way, now that the media is interviewing him, he can't show his cowardice

"All I can say is that I will do my best in this derby. As for Su Yu, he is a very strong player, but I already have experience in derby matches, so I will perform better than him!"

Sure enough, when the media in Bangzi country saw Son Heung-min's interview, they immediately announced excitedly

《Son Heung-min: I will beat Su Yu and prove his status as the number one brother in Asia."

Amidst the excitement,

Arsenal's continuous fierce battle schedule finally ushered in another tough battle!

North London Derby!

Su Yu's first Premier League derby is about to begin!.
