Chapter 131: Wenger's routine

In the away dressing room, the atmosphere of the Arsenal generals was somber, no one was playing music, or chatting and laughing with each other, and the whole dressing room was left with the players sitting silently in their chairs and the sound of some players panting. Of course, the noise of the stands outside the window did not stop the door and window pouring into the dressing room.

Arsenal's players are not the kind of players who are besieged for most of the pitch and don't change their faces, and the football they usually play is completely different from the football they play in the first half. They are good at finding through the opposition defence with continuous passing, and they prefer to attack.

Speaking of which, there aren't many teams that like pure defense either.

Mesut Ozil sat in his seat with his hands on his knees, and until now, he was gasping for air, tired of defending in the first half, allowing the Turkish-German, who was more adept at attacking and delivering beautiful dangerous balls, to exhaust his physical energy on defence.

Defending is a very physical job, especially for players who are not good at defending themselves, and letting them participate in defense can only make more runs than some other defensive players.

Sanchez's state is better, as a side attacker, Sanchez in the first half of the game is actually a little "yin and yang", because he is not as sincere as Ozil, he does not spend too much of his physical energy on defense, he has been waiting, waiting for a chance for him to sprint, of course there will not be too many such opportunities, but before that, he can't use up his body, otherwise when the opportunity appears, he may not be able to rush.

It's just that in the current situation, the physical problem may not be too big, because everyone is a professional player, and after a fifteen-minute break, it is not a big problem to support another forty-five minutes. The point is that the players are not very high-spirited, and although they have strictly followed Wenger's tactics, the humiliation of being pressed into the box in the first half is difficult to remove.

"Bang !!!!!"

A loud bang caught the attention of all the Arsenal players.

Sanchez slammed his fist on the closet, and the anger of the Chilean Manchester United, he still looked angry, followed by another punch that scared Ozil, who was closest to him, shivered.

"I don't want to kick like that!!"

"What is this? Counting on a point from the Turtle Penalty Zone? It's nothing short of humiliating!! ”

"Naked humiliation !!"

The first words were still spoken in English, and then the emotional Sanchez unwittingly returned to his native Spanish.

Sanchez, who was venting, felt someone tugging at his shirt, and he looked down, only to see Ozil timidly tugging at the hem of his shirt and his eyes skimming out of the door.

It turned out that Arsene Wenger was already standing outside the dressing room door.

I don't know if this old man can speak Spanish at every turn. Sanchez muttered inwardly, knowing that when he said excitedly, he didn't have much good to say about Wenger......

Ozil looked at Wenger with some nervousness, he knew a little Spanish, and of course he knew what Sanchez was just saying. He couldn't help but worry about his friend, this is Arsenal after all, and Arsene Wenger has the unmistakable majesty in the dressing room of the team here.

In the locker room, there are those who are nervous, those who gloat, and those who are not concerned about themselves.

Either way, the focus is on Arsene Wenger and Sanchez. There were even some substitutes who didn't get a chance to play and shouted in their hearts.

"Dry up!! Dry up!! ”

For those fringe players, if Sanchez and Arsene Wenger clash, regardless of the team's results, Sanchez will definitely lose his place at Arsenal - Wenger has been at the helm for 20 years, and it is not something that a Sanchez can shake.

Although Sanchez's loss of place does not mean that those fringe players have a chance, it is still a hope. The competitive pressure of professional football is always that high.

However, to the disappointment of this part of the players, under the gaze of Wenger, Sanchez sat back in the chair with great glory. Alexis Sanchez is not a big fool, he knows the consequences of a head-on confrontation with the manager, and he doesn't want to be impulsive and leave him without a ball for most of the year.

The main players are relieved that they have no competition with Sanchez, and Sanchez is still a key player in the team, and his ability is still quite good. Without Sanchez, Arsenal's strength will drop a bit.

Arsene Wenger waited until Alexis Sanchez sat down, and the only person standing in the dressing room at the moment was Arsene Wenger.

Wenger glanced around to make sure that no one had risen up to challenge his authority anymore, and nodded slightly.

However, he is still a little worried in his heart, and he can see the expressions of the Arsenal players clearly, although except for Sanchez, the other players have not vented publicly, but it is clear that they are also very unhappy.

That's right!!

Arsene Wenger said from the bottom of his heart.

Arsene Wenger just keeps betting!! Bet Arsenal can survive the first half!!

It's really difficult for Arsenal to beat Manchester United head-on. The first leg was at his home stadium, and he couldn't beat the opponent after establishing such a big advantage early, so this time he came to the away side, so he had to think of some special tricks.

In terms of strength, there is undoubtedly a gap between Arsenal and Manchester United's current squad - this can be seen from the standings. The presence of Li Qingshan allows Carlo Ancelotti to have seven players who are mainly responsible for defending at the back, without worrying about the lack of attacking power.

How can this Italian be so lucky.

Arsene Wenger complained in his heart.

Since there is a gap in strength, then you can only make a fuss about the mentality of the players.

In the first half, the team only defended and did not attack, and it is estimated that these players are suffocated.

It's like a spring, the harder you press in the first half, the more power you will burst out in the second half.

And what Wenger has been worried about is that Arsenal can't withstand the pressure in the first half and is crushed..........

Thankfully, despite the thrilling conditions in the final stages of the first half, the team survived and went into halftime with a 0-0 draw.

The second half is when the team plays!!

"Alex!! You're upset right now. ”

Arsene Wenger spoke.

Sanchez was stunned, this old man didn't seem to be ready to let himself go! He was just about to stand up and say something harsh, when Ozil, who was next to him, tugged at his clothes again.

Looking at Ozil's eyes, Sanchez finally carefully considered some words: "Yes! Boss!! We were uncomfortable in the first half!! ”

And I don't think we can hold on in the second half.....

This sentence was said by Sanchez in his own heart.

"You're right!"

"So we're going to attack in the second half!!"

Sanchez is a flurry, what kind of routine is this old man playing?
