Chapter 655: Full Gear

In the 23rd round, Arsenal visited Reebok Stadium to challenge Bolton; This is a good opportunity for Arsenal, who are unbeaten in four of their last five games but remain on the brink of the relegation zone. It was a clearly weaker opponent and a good opportunity for Arsenal to keep their lead at the top of the table with three points on the road.

Xiao Qing and his teammates are also full of confidence in this game, Arsenal have been in good form recently, and the most important thing is that Arsenal's players are always full of hunger for the game, Arsenal's players need to win the game, they need to get a more secure position in the standings. Fresh from a home win over Manchester United, Arsenal are in high spirits and will be confident of a win at Reebok Stadium.

McConn, who has been training with the team for nearly half a month, appeared in the team's starting line-up at this time, and Arsenal finally welcomed back an orthodox full-back after so long; Although the current McCone may not be in excellent condition, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and he must have brought a lot of help to Arsenal at both offensive and defensive ends.

The Gunners are ready, Arsenal are in good shape now, and the morale of the Arsenal players has reached new highs; In addition, Arteta, Xiao Qing and others returned to the main lineup, and the aid of fullback McCone also made Arsenal now have a more stable lineup, the current Arsenal is in good shape, and the current Gunners have reached the strongest lineup, in such a game, Arsenal has no reason not to win the game, they have no reason to lose three points at Reebok Stadium.

Arsenal were in good form at the start of the game. New signing McCone also showed full enthusiasm in this game. This is also a very good motivation for Arsenal. The full-back, who has a first-class ability to provide assists, has greatly enriched Arsenal's tactics, and Xiao Qing and Robin van Persie have also been given more opportunities to perform up front.

Arsenal firmly grasped the process of the game through the possession of the opening stage, and began to reverse the away in the eighth minute, Arsenal right-back crossed from the wing, Van Persie headed past Bolton goalkeeper Bogdan at the back post from close range, but there was also Bolton defender Whitt on the goal line to clear the ball; Then Walcott cut the bottom line on the right side and knocked back behind him, and Xiao Qing's left-footed shot from the edge of the box was blocked by Whitt with his body.

Arsenal have created good scoring opportunities in a row, and they are also very sure of scoring in the next games; Arsenal quickly got into the game. Arsenal, who were in full swing, also took the initiative in the game. The current Gunners are very close to scoring, and the attacking duo of Xiao Qing and Robin van Persie are also trying to seize their chances to score. If you can create good chances, you need to turn those advantages into goals.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Arteta crossed the entire Bolton defense line in front of the goal, and Walcott's anti-offside position almost formed a quasi-single knife. Xiao Qing rushed to the goal in front of the goal, outflanked in place and easily pushed the goal, 1-0, Arsenal looked a little understated in this game to take the lead, they naturally have a stronger confidence at this time to be able to laugh the most.

The one-0 lead also made the Arsenal players more relaxed in this matter. This game has been controlled by Arsenal, and the Gunners have also taken the initiative in the game; At this time, there is no need to worry about what Bolton can make waves. Arsenal, who have taken the lead, will not give their opponents a chance to equalize or even reverse the score, and Arsenal will win the game in one go.

Although Arsenal took the initiative in the game, their luck was really bad; In the 38th minute of the game, Van Persie smashed the ball continuously on the edge of the penalty area, Bolton full-back Rikitz did not steal, Van Persie cleverly kicked and shot but the ball hit the crossbar and popped up; As the first half drew to a close, Arsenal continued to miss a chance when McCone resolutely cut in a cross from the right and Van Persie scrambled a right-footed shot from six yards out just outside the post!

The goal is the goalkeeper's best friend, and the two inevitable goals in a row were on the back of the net, which was really distressing for Van Persie, and he missed the best chance to help Arsenal extend their lead and seal the victory.

However, Arsenal are squandering chances in a row, but they are always in control of the rhythm of the game; Arsenal's excellent possession ability makes Bolton helpless, Arsenal with absolute possession does not give Bolton any chance to counterattack at all, the Gunners can even be relaxed at this time tactical practice, this game is a victory for Arsenal, although it is only a 1-0 win, but everyone sees a mature team, is a terrifying team that can use their passes to collapse the opponent.

Xiao Qing was shocked by the team's current performance, Arsenal is now also finding a very good attacking rhythm, for Arsenal when this game is obviously just the beginning. Arsenal need to be more aggressive and they need to be more consistent at this point. Although it was only 1-0, the whole game was completed to suppress Bolton, and Arsenal's performance made everyone realize that Arsenal's current pass-cutting and possession combination has become better and better, and when Arsenal play the game they like, then maybe the Gunners' opponents will be completely defeated by Arsenal's possession.

The 1-0 win looked mediocre, and even a little less impressive for Arsenal; But seeing the process of the game, there is no such idea at all, because Arsenal are now masters of the rhythm, and their games can be as fast as fire or as tepid, but Arsenal's football is winning football; With masterful possession and passing, Arsenal will unwittingly extinguish the opponent's hopes of counter-attacking.

Arsenal won another victory, a small 1-0 win was enough to make Arsenal happy, because they completed the set goal to get the three points, but also because after this victory, Arsenal's lead in the standings was more obvious, and Manchester City, which was struggling behind Arsenal, was once again thrown away by Arsenal.

In this round of the game, thanks to Manchester United's abandoned Gibson volley, the Toffees Everton defeated the Blue Moon Manchester City 1-0 at home, and they gave a huge blow to Manchester City, who were ambitious to regain the top spot, and now the Blue Moon is also six points behind Arsenal in the standings because of the defeat in this game.

With a six-point lead in hand, it definitely makes the Arsenal players feel proud, they look like they are slowly kicking their rivals out of the competition, Arsenal have made their opponents feel desperate with game after game wins, and they have steadily moved forward with excellent victories; At this point, Arsenal's main rivals will feel the pressure as they make some mistakes and they will see Arsenal take a small step forward.

A six-point lead, which is also a very safe lead, is a two-game win, at this time Arsenal can also be regarded as a little bit of capital to make mistakes, they don't have to walk on thin ice to worry that the top position may be replaced by Manchester City at any time, now they can have more room to adjust, they can also use such games to make the opponent feel desperate.

Six points is not too far apart and City certainly think they can catch up on some of Arsenal's mistakes, and they certainly think they will have a chance to chase points in the next games. However, they must know that they are facing Arsenal, which is a team that has always matured, and it is really difficult to complete the overtake of Arsenal in the standings at this time.

The difference of six points is not huge, but Wangshan is a dead horse and may feel the infinite motivation because of this seemingly smiling gap Manchester City, and they will keep trying to close the gap in the next game, a gap that looks like it is within reach. But Manchester City is also very likely to completely collapse because of this small gap, because they don't have much experience in winning the title, and because they don't have any respite at this time, and now they have been passively pulled into the fast lane by Arsenal, and they can't stop at this time.

Arsenal's players are becoming more and more satisfied with where they are and are happy to have built a clearer and clearer lead in the league. Although it is true that they have a six-point lead now, the Arsenal players will not easily squander these advantages in their hands, because they know that this advantage is not enough insurance, and the Arsenal players hope to build a bigger lead in the next games, and even draw a break for the league title completely.

Arsenal's opponent in the 24th round of the league is Blackburn, which is Arsenal's home game; Feeling completely found their rhythm, Arsenal have the confidence to win at home, and they will also use a more exciting game to win, Arsenal will show their fangs, let everyone know that Arsenal has started their madness in the second half, and the Gunners will run towards the championship at full speed!
