Chapter 150 About the Captain [First Update]
"The best goal in the Champions League this week. It came from Li Mo's winning goal against Dortmund. He blasted the ball into the goal from zero angle. No one knows whether he wanted to cross or deliberately kicked the ball towards the goal. ?”
In Sky Sports TV's [Today's Football] column, Li Mo's goal undoubtedly became the best goal in the Champions League this week.
However, in addition to discussing the excitement of this ball, many people were also speculating whether Li Mo wanted to pass or shoot at that moment.
In this column, Li Mo's post-game interview was also broadcast.
"Are you trying to shoot on purpose or are you preparing to cross."
a reporter asked.
"you guess."
Li Mo grinned.
Even his teammates didn't quite believe that he shot directly, so he simply gave up on explaining.
Believe it or not, I scored a goal anyway.
"Gary, do you think he did it on purpose?"
Host Andy Gray appeared on the screen. He looked away from the TV screen and looked at guest host Gary Neville.
"I don't know either." Gary Neville shook his head. "But many world waves have the element of being fooled. I think we don't have to worry about this."
Andy Gray nodded and continued: "Well, we have just reviewed the Champions League games this week. Next, on this Sunday afternoon, the Stamford Bridge Stadium will stage the most critical game so far this season. This game is between Arsenal, who scored 22 points after 9 league rounds, and Chelsea, who scored 20 points in 9 league rounds. Currently, the two sides are first and second in the league standings respectively. Since Chelsea was in charge in the previous round of league They defeated Manchester City at home, so Manchester City is now three points behind Chelsea and five points behind Arsenal at the top. Now this head-to-head showdown between the first and second place in the standings will directly affect the league points in the first half of the schedule. Ranking.”
"Everyone, please make a prediction for this game."
He looked at the many guests invited.
Many are familiar English football legends.
Including Lineker, Gary Neville, Martin Keown and others were present.
Lineker first said: "Although Arsenal brought back a point from the Westfalenstadion, they consumed too much. Two consecutive away games were too physical for Arsenal. On the contrary, Chelsea sat at home. It’s time to wait for work, so I think Chelsea will win, maybe 2-1, and Li will score.”
Gary Neville: "Same as above"
Several other guests basically thought Chelsea would win.
When it was the turn of Arsenal star Martin Keown, he hesitated slightly and said: "I think Arsenal are in very good shape recently. They may be able to get away from Stanford, maybe one to one."
In short, except for Martin Keown, almost everyone thinks Chelsea can win.
In fact, Arsenal is indeed facing a lot of difficulties now.
After returning from Germany, veterans Arteta and Vermaelen both suffered injuries.
Although Cazorla has resumed training, Wenger did not dare to let Cazorla appear rashly in this strong dialogue.
That is to say.
Three important players on a central axis are all injured - which is not bad, because the team has someone to step up.
But there is a problem
Who wears the captain's armband?
If the team's captain and deputy captain Vermaelen and Arteta are unable to play, the captain's armband will usually be worn on Cazorla's arm.
But now that all three are unable to play, usually a veteran is chosen to be the captain on the field.
It's just that in Arsenal's formation, the veteran is Kaká.
Kaka has just joined, but he has authority in the locker room and is a good candidate for captain.
But after much thought, Wengers thought.
It was decided that Li Mo would be the captain of the team in this game - this was not just a name, but Li Mo was really one of the candidates to be the captain of the team in the future.
When he needs to do something as a captain, he will bring Li Mo with him.
Although there was no official appointment, Li Mo's role as Arsenal's "fourth captain" was confirmed.
Li Mo certainly had no objection to this.
He will not be afraid of taking responsibility.
November 7th, the tenth round of the league.
In Arsenal's away game against Chelsea, Li Mo will wear the captain's armband.
Before this game, the media inevitably mentioned the conflicts between Mourinho, Wenger and Li Mo.
In the match a week ago, Li Mo's celebration was mentioned again.
In the eyes of Chelsea fans.
If Li Mo disrespects Mourinho, he is disrespectful to Chelsea.
Chelsea fan groups called on Chelsea fans on social platforms to create more pressure on Li Mo during the game.
But how to create more pressure?
Could it be a bigger boo?
This doesn't seem to have much effect.
Therefore, Chelsea fans work together and use their talents. In short, Li Mo's away pressure at Stamford Bridge will definitely not be small.
In this case, letting Li Mo wear the captain's armband and play at Stamford Bridge is not the support of Arsenal's coaching staff for Li Mo.
When Li Mo walked proudly from the player tunnel of Stamford Bridge with the captain's armband on.
Deafening boos erupted throughout the stands.
"You're not even worthy of carrying Jose's shoes!"
"you idiot!"
"You won't be proud for long!"
"Go back to your hometown! Mr. Long Guo!"
The scoldings were mixed with boos, but Li Mo turned a blind eye and forgot about the boos.
But his teammates couldn't help but look into the stands.
They saw the ferocious-looking Chelsea fans on both sides of the tunnel.
They held up Mourinho's portrait, and they attacked Li Mo with the most vicious predictions.
"This game is difficult to play."
Szczesny, who was behind Li Mo, murmured in a low voice.
On the sidelines.
The media is also paying attention to Mourinho and Wenger.
Disappointingly, they shook hands anyway.
Although both of them had sullen faces, they did not smile or exchange greetings or anything, they just shook hands slightly and turned around to leave.
But I still shook hands.
This leaves journalists with a lot less articles to write.
Mourinho was informed of Arsenal's starting lineup before the game.
Compared with the starting line-up against Dortmund, Arsenal's starting line-up had only one change, that is, Ramsey replaced Arteta who was absent due to injury, and partnered with Xhaka as a double midfielder, while Kaka still played as an attacking midfielder. On the front line are Sanchez, Li Mo and Walcott.
In just three days, they played two high-intensity games in a row with almost the same lineup.
Mourinho thinks Arsenal can't stand it at all.
Hearing the boos, he couldn't help but look at Li Mo.
Although there were many confrontations with Li Mo in the media, Li Mo also responded directly after celebrating the goal.
in media reports.
The two almost became enemies.
But the media will always choose a more exaggerated reporting method.
In Mourinho's heart, he actually appreciates Li Mo even more.
This kid is a tough guy. He is only 18 years old and is not afraid of Mourinho, the famous madman.
With such a big heart, he is definitely a good player.
Mourinho was salivating with saliva.
He turned his head and looked in Wenger's direction.
Wenger was seen sitting back on the coaching bench.
Behind him, Mourinho's assistant coach Stephen Horan also spotted Mourinho observing Wenger.
"He is quite confident in Li Mo."
Stephen Holland said.
"Of course, didn't you see that the captain's armband is on him?"
Mourinho also turned and walked towards the coaching bench.
"The atmosphere at home is good for us, but it is not the decisive factor in the game." Mourinho said, "We need to be prepared to fight hard."
"But I think... they seemed to be frightened."
Stephen Holland looked at the other Arsenal players.
Stephen Holland is right.
Li Mo was not much affected by the atmosphere at Stamford Bridge.
But his teammates, the young Arsenal players, were a little embarrassed.
Especially when facing Chelsea's onslaught.
In this game, Chelsea did not shrink the defense and counterattack, but took the initiative to attack.
Many people have a stereotyped image of Mourinho, believing that the Portuguese coach cannot coach offense at all.
But in fact, with the right combination of personnel, Mourinho's team can regain the ball through midfield strangulation and then carry out an ultra-fast-paced offensive and defensive transition attack. Through the rapid assault of the wingers on both sides, they can create A breathtaking offensive frenzy.
For example, during his first period at Chelsea, he used the rapid attacks of Robben and Duff on the left and right wingers to support Drogba and Giovinco in the center to create a large number of scoring opportunities.
Although the tactical foundation of the first phase is also based on defense.
But Mourinho's Chelsea's explosiveness and tension on the offensive end are amazing. They have good physical fitness and speed, and can often break defenses in an instant.
Once you have the opportunity, you can see footage of multiple attackers in blue jerseys rushing into the enemy penalty area.
Chelsea now does not have Robben and Duff, and there is no Drogba.
But they have Hazard and Willian who are also very good, and they also have Torres in the middle.
There are also Oscar, Ramirez, Mikel and others in the midfield.
Terry, Cahill, Azpilicueta and Ivanovic on the back line are all defensive heroes.
Cech on the goal line is still the anchor of the Blues' goal line.
Faced with such a lineup.
No team will have an easy time coming to this stadium.
therefore.
Arsenal conceded the goal in the ninth minute.
Hazard helped Chelsea open the scoring.
The cheers of the Chelsea fans at the scene almost shook the Stamford Bridge stadium.
"Chelsea is in the lead! Before the game, people thought Chelsea would win. However, this somewhat made Chelsea fans worry that they would die if they were too hot. But now they can rest assured that Mourinho will not waste his advantage! "
"Hazard! Hazard has exploded in full force this season. He has scored 6 goals and 6 assists in the league this season. He is second only to Li Mo in terms of the number of directly involved goals - Li Mo now has 13 league goals and 4 assists!”
"If Chelsea can win this game, it means that they will overtake Arsenal and rank first in the league. Liverpool, which is ranked third, may also overtake Arsenal. Arsenal may fall to third place in the league. name!"
"Hazard's goal puts Chelsea fans' hearts back in their stomachs!"
The commentators praised Hazard and Chelsea.
The course of the game seemed to be in line with what most people expected before the game.
"Isn't it just a goal? Let's get it back!"
Li Mo, who was wearing the captain's armband, clapped his hands and shouted loudly.
Honestly.
This is not nutritious.
But you can't ask the eighteen-year-old Li Mo to deliver a "pre-war speech" similar to Churchill's at this time, something like "kill them on the beach, on the street, in a cesspool" or something like that.
Li Mo is not good at this.
Perhaps his only advantage when saying this was that it was loud enough for most of the Arsenal players to hear.
However.
It's just such a sentence. Different people have different feelings of power when saying it.
Li Mo scored too many goals.
This made the Arsenal players feel at ease when they heard him say this.
"Everyone pass the ball to me! Pass the ball in my direction!"
Li Mo stepped on the ball and said to Sanchez and Walcott.
"Don't worry about whether the opportunity is good or not, just pass the ball into the penalty area. Then leave it to me!"
As the referee's whistle sounded.
Li Mo kicked the ball back to Kaka's feet, and then he shouted at Sanchez.
"Alex, rush up quickly, they are still waiting for us to score!"
Then, he turned around, faced the boos from the sky, and rushed towards Chelsea's penalty area. When he reached the edge of the penalty area, he turned around and raised his hands.
Pass the ball to me! !
Seeing Li Mo who was like a lighthouse.
The panicked hearts of Arsenal's players calmed down.
Wenger was going to say something.
But no more.
There are many styles of captaincy.
But it can unite the team at critical moments and stabilize the emotions of teammates.
That's what a good captain is.
regardless.
What method did he use.
