What is a destructive midfielder?

‘A sign of spring? Not the revival of everything, but the collapse of Arsenal! ’

This seems to be a matter of course.

07/08 season.

10/11 season.

13/14 season.

15/16 season.

The invincible Arsenal always fails inexplicably.

Often a few losses against weak teams cause the collapse of the entire season. Fortunately, the Gunners always transform at critical moments: the top four monsters.

Nearly seven years.

In terms of the number of times the Premier League BIG6 has been slaughtered, Arsenal is the undisputed first, being bloodbathed by different teams with more than 4 goals eleven times. Among them, the opponents also include mid- and lower-level teams.

Most of these games took place when spring came.

A well-known commentator once said: "If you want to know if it's bitter, think about the champions Liverpool."

In fact, Arsenal fans are even more distressing.

Li Kang's life is very dull.

Except for occasionally shooting commercials, he lives a life of two points and one line every day.

Since Morata and Xhaka fell in love, there are fewer and fewer game partners. Li Kang would browse video websites and even considered opening a teaching account like Kroos.

Kroos' teaching series is: "Hand in hand teaching you to become a ceremonial midfielder."

Forget about your own teaching series.

Of course, the most popular football coach on video websites is Guardiola. His dancing on the sidelines was cut into radio gymnastics by netizens, and accompanied by the background music of "Time is calling".

Adoptive mother Sofia came to London during the period. After complaining for a while that the cloth shoes she made for her son did not fit, the traditional Castilian lady returned to Barcelona on the same day.

Li Kang's online social accounts are most closely connected with Havertz and Brandt. The Leverkusen twins really want to come to Arsenal's training base, but they are busy with their studies and cannot get away.

I heard that after retiring, Kiesling, who became the assistant sports director, would run to the La Masia youth training camp from time to time, ambitiously trying to copy the signing case of the boss Waller!

On the other side.

Wenger is very busy.

The League Cup, which is mainly for training, was abandoned early.

Fighting on three fronts of the FA Cup, the Champions League, and the Premier League, the big and small things inside and outside the club also made him breathless.

For example: A senior executive of the club complained privately that the players consumed too much drinking water.

Even such a trivial matter, the Arsenal coach had to write a report to refute.

In the entire Premier League, no club coach is more exhausted than Wenger.

Days passed one by one.

The Premier League match day is coming.

Li Kang and his teammates came to Stoke-on-Trent, the "Jingdezhen of England".

Arsenal will challenge the Sky City-Stoke City away.

The club was founded in 1863 and was originally composed of a group of railway workers.

In recent years.

In addition to the 6-1 bloodbath of Liverpool in the Premier League, Stoke City also has a famous meme:

"Peak Barcelona Dream Team 3? They will experience what the end is on a cold rainy night in Stoke City!"

The background of this sentence is based on: the average height of the Stoke City team is 1.88 meters.

What does it mean?

Among the more than 160 clubs in the five major leagues, Stoke City has maintained the "first height" for nearly thirteen years.

Who is the second?

Leverkusen!

Let's compare the average height of the peak Dream Team Barcelona?

The last for six consecutive years!

It was not until the Barcelona executives spent 150 million last summer that the average height of the Barcelona team rose to 1.79 meters.

Let's take a look at those keywords!

Stoke City, cold rainy night

This famous hot meme once sparked heated discussions in major sports forums.

Fans wildly assumed: How many goals would Barcelona score against Stoke City.

Unfortunately.

The two teams did not have the opportunity to play against each other.

Britannia Alloy Stadium.

Crowded, full of people.

More than 20,000 spectators cheered loudly.

The mascot, the little hippo, was extending his fat hands to greet the fans sitting on the treetops.

The stadium is located at a low altitude, and fans who cannot buy tickets will climb up the trees on the high ground outside the stadium to watch the game.

"CTV5! CTV5! Good evening, audience friends."

"Now we are broadcasting the 2016/17 Premier League."

"Stoke City vs. Arsenal at home!"

"The Potters vs. the Gunners!"

"In the past seven years, Arsenal has never beaten Stoke City away from home!"

"Will Wenger break the curse of not winning away games tonight?"

"Let's wait and see!"

Player tunnel.

Stoke City in this historical period gradually threw away the title of "Sky City".

"Li, long time no see!"

A pair of big hands pressed on his shoulders.

Li Kang looked back and saw that it was Bojan.

The former prince of La Masia. He scored more than 900 goals in the youth team, breaking many records set by Messi when he was a child. He played in the Champions League at the age of 17 and was selected for the Spanish national team. It was simply the template of Long Aotian in the novel.

At the age of 18, he refused to play for the national team.

At the age of 18, he won the La Liga championship, the King's Cup championship, and the Champions League championship. "Triple Crown".

He was not the kind of bench water dispenser player.

Scored in the King's Cup final and scored three goals in the key battle of the Champions League.

Rumor: Barcelona executives wanted to make Bojan the core and sell Messi

It's a pity that Bojan didn't live up to expectations. After winning everything, he started to play badly at the age of 19, using "anxiety" as an excuse.

Barcelona fans certainly want to see: Bojan and Messi work together to create a bright future for Barcelona.

What a pity.

In the game, this guy can't coexist with Messi.

The Barcelona coaching staff racked their brains, but there was nothing they could do.

Because as long as the two of them play at the same time, fans will find that this guy and Messi will squeeze each other's running space. Barcelona's offensive rhythm will become very strange.

There was no greeting for too long.

Li Kang was not familiar with Bojan.

During the La Masia youth training camp, Bojan was a dragon in front of his peers, and an "anxiety patient" in front of the big brother of the first team.

Anxious to the extent of "thirsty but dare not drink water".

The referee led the players of both sides out of the tunnel.

The broadcast couldn't wait to play the main lineup list.

The reaction of the home fans was very flat

It has something to do with Stoke City's style and viewing.

For three consecutive seasons, no game had a possession rate of more than 50%.

In the entire Premier League, the team had the fewest shots, the fewest shots on target, the fewest successful passes, and the lowest pass success rate.

Whether you are the Premier League BIG6 or the "big fry" Aston Villa, as long as you meet Stoke City, well, you will create the shortest effective match time record in the club's history again and again.

"Here are the starting lineups of both sides."

"Stoke City's formation is 3-4-3! It seems to be influenced by Conte!"

"Goalkeeper: Grant."

"Defenders: Muniesa, Indi, Johnson."

"Midfielders: Pieters, Adam, Imbula, Diouf."

"Forwards: Allen, Bojan, Shaqiri!"

"This forward line has minimized the average height of Stoke City! The heights of the three offensive players are: 1.68 meters, 1.69 meters, and 1.67 meters!"

"Arsenal's formation is 4-3-3!"

"Goalkeeper:"

"With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins!"
