The 158th will overtake sooner or later
After a successful surgical treatment, Gunners striker Eduardo Edvaldo, who had his ankle cut off last Saturday. Reach. Silva is expected to be back in action before Christmas.
On Monday, after the operation, Dudu celebrated his 25th birthday with his family in a London hospital. It was diagnosed that the Croatian was killed by Martin. Taylor shoveled until he fractured the fibula of his left foot and fractured his left ankle openly. Dudu will be able to leave the hospital this weekend, and the Arsenal medical team has drawn up a rehabilitation plan for him to start running in six months and compete for a place in the first team nine months later; For the next 6 to 8 weeks, Doodoux will have a cast on the injury and walk with the help of crutches. In recent days, the injured Croatian has been blessed by fans around the world, and the Gunners' official website has also thanked all parties involved when announcing Dudu's injury.
Just 24 hours ago, Dudu woke up after surgery at Birmingham's local Sellyoak hospital, still delirious, and the first sight the Croatian recalls was "his foot tilted to the other side".
Taylor went to the hospital twice in a row last weekend (the first of which coincided with Doodou's surgery) to ask for forgiveness. But Du Du can't remember the day before: "I was sedated, who knows?" If he does come, I'll forgive him, I know he didn't mean it, it's always going to happen on the pitch. The magnanimous Dudu also expressed his determination to return to the field as soon as possible, "What happened on Saturday hurt a lot of people, and it won't hurt anymore from now on." I have no doubt that I'll be back on the pitch and I'm not afraid to do that. ”
The denunciations against Taylor continue. Following Arsene Wenger's denunciation of such violent fouls and a lifetime ban, Croatia's team included Nick. Dudu teammates including Kovac and Kruka. Both expressed anger at Taylor's foul.
A website that has made death threats against Taylor is currently collecting signatures, and several Croatian journalists have been persuaded to stop him from the sidelines of the Birmingham training ground on Monday.
Birmingham City boss McLesh and Taylor's team-mate McFadden both thought the foul was unintentional. Taylor is a "gentleman giant", and Taylor has been "heartbroken" after the foul. Before being sent off for hurting Dudu, Taylor's last red card was nine years ago. At Blackburn, manager Souness thought Taylor was "a son-in-law", but Souness said, "I don't want the team to be like that. And Gunners striker Bendtner, who spent last season on loan at Birmingham City, said, "As far as I know. Taylor is a calm guy. Opinions differed, but public opinion rarely condemned Taylor.
The Premier League is all about fierce rushing, and Arsene Wenger believes there are teams that specialise in playing with the Gunners with big sticks.
The number jù proves Wenger's point of view. So far this season, 12 teams have received red and yellow cards against Arsenal, more than they have played against other Premier League sides.
In a post-game interview, the professor called for a "lifetime ban" for Taylor, retracting his remarks on Saturday night. Taylor, the president of the professional players' union, who wrote letters to Taylor and Dudu respectively, came out of the round. "Of course the coach was angry. I understand Arshiner's reaction, he overdid it but retracted it, and I just hope that the good relationship between Birmingham and Arsenal continues. ”
The good news for the Gunners is that Duerr, who picked up an injury at the start of last week's game against Milan, is expected to be on the bench at the weekend. Flamini called on the team to win the title for Dudou: "We wanted to win the title before, but now we want to win for Dudou. 'And Garra, who kicked the billboard after the penalty, and Clichy, who tripped Panaby, also had the support of Arsene Wenger. He (Gala) was very angry, and he was very competitive. Sometimes the expression of annoyance comes out. As for Klich, the professor said, "He did make a mistake before the penalty was awarded, but we were unlucky and the referee shouldn't have done that." ”
Arsenal are having a hard time, but Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, who has narrowed the gap in points, is giving comfort medicine to his old rivals.
Since the official inception of the Premier League in 1992/1993, there has not been a situation where the top two teams have ended up with the same number of points, and only the better goal difference has been decided, but in Ferguson's view, this season could set a precedent for zào, because the gap between the teams at the top of the table is too small at the moment.
'We need to make sure that when it comes time to decide the title on goal difference, we can have the advantage. In an interview a few days ago, he said that Manchester United is currently three points behind Arsenal in the standings, but the goal difference is as high as 40, four more than the Gunners, and 19 goals ahead of third-place Chelsea. ”
The last time the English top flight had to be decided by goal difference was in 1989, when Arsenal beat Liverpool to win the title by goal difference.
Prior to that, only four teams in top-flight history had won the title on goal difference: Manchester United in 1965, Arsenal in 1953, Portsmouth in 1950 and Huddersfield Town in 1924. United's next two league opponents are bottom-of-the-table Fulham and Derby County, who have conceded 102 times so far this season, and are certainly an opportunity to extend the club's goal difference lead further.
Of course, the goal of the forward line is inseparable from the careful organization of the midfielders, and Manchester United's "generous" midfield personnel allocation this season is obviously an important support for continuous goals. Even if you don't count the "jack-of-all-trades" O'Shea, the lord now has to choose two starters from five players: Scholes, Hargreaves, Carrick, Anderson and Fletcher every time he lines up, although according to the fame Hargreaves and Scholes are the absolute main force, but a recent poll showed that the combination of Carrick and Anderson received the most support.
On top of that, United's slightly "thin" wide defence will also be improved: captain Gary, who has not played in a first-team game since his injury in March last year. Neville played 60 minutes against Liverpool on Tuesday and took another big step towards a complete recovery.
Manchester United are full of confidence in the next round of the league.
The opponent was Fulham, still away, and in the eyes of the media, it was Manchester United who won in the end.
Arsenal, who are three points clear at the top of the table, will be able to sweep away the previous week's slump in their first league game in March. It also attracted a lot of attention.
Arsenal's opponents are Aston Villa, and the two youngsters will face it out, but Villa will not have to be distracted by the Champions League in three days' time. More or less the pressure of playing away from home.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are a bit stretched, with Arsene Wenger's side not only having to deal with the pressure of playing on multiple fronts, but also stubbornly battling injuries.
Soon the suspense of this round of the league came to an end, and most of the matches in the 28th round of the Premier League died down. Manchester United and Chelsea scored a goalscoring spree on the road, beating Fulham 3-0 and West Ham 4-0 respectively, while leaders Arsenal were in danger at home and did not score an equaliser until stoppage time. After this game, Arsenal have only one point left in the lead. Chelsea, meanwhile, are chasing one step closer to the top of the table.
The title race is moving further in a direction that is not in the favour of Arsenal.
Although Arsenal attacked at home, Villa was a tough one, and Arsenal almost choked. In the end, I was lucky to get 1 point. However, given the team's recent form, it is only a matter of time before they finish at the top of the table.
First of all, Arsenal's progress should be recognized. The root cause of the February curse lies with the clubs, who have not invested enough in the transfer market, resulting in a lack of depth on the bench. The current championship race has a lot going on to include the economic side of the competition. How much to invest in a certain process to compete for the championship development.
And Arsenal has not invested as much in the two transfers in the summer and winter as other teams. Not to mention compared with the three giants, even teams such as Manchester City can't compare.
Last season also saw the February curse, which collapsed in just two weeks from the end of February to the beginning of March. At that time, the three cup competitions were lost and out, and the four major directors were empty.
There will definitely be problems in a set of lineups to play the world, as can be seen in today's game with Villa, the Gunners lack stamina in the sprint stage of the last 1/3 of the schedule, and the depth of the substitutes is not enough.
Talking about the game specifically, the Arsenal players are really tired. Clearly affected by the last two draws. The game against Milan was the Gunners' most devastating game, which was very expensive compared to other teams.
In the last round, there was another double blow. In this game, they only lasted 15 minutes with a fast passing rhythm. Their physical condition makes it difficult for them to maintain a fast pace, which makes it difficult to threaten Villa, who are good at playing solid and counter-attacking.
Villa are one of the best teams in recent form and are a real threat on the counter-attack. With Ashley Young and Abang Lajo on the flanks and Karui in the middle, the Arsenal central defenders did not dare to attack, so the Gunners could not open up on the wing and could not break the dense defense.
The midfielders have poor long-range shots, poor running and the absence of Eboue makes him have no advantage on the wings. Diaby had just recovered from injury and was not able to pose much of a threat. Lacking the fast attacking routine of the past, the long-range shots on the wing could not be opened, and Adebayo felt bad, also because he relied too much on him in the early stage. Today he was inaccurate in judging the high possession and was able to provide an assist at the end. Against such a difficult opponent, Arsenal were very lucky to be able to maintain their 26-game unbeaten record for the Chiefs in the final stages.
In the title race, Arsenal's biggest disadvantage over Manchester United and Chelsea is that they only have one squad. Manchester United and Chelsea have both rotated their squads recently, so in the final 10 rounds, Arsenal are a little more than enough, not to mention facing Chelsea and Manchester United, many people think they will gradually withdraw from the title race.
The biggest problem now is the Champions League, even if you have to give up next weekend's league, you have to fight Milan, otherwise there will be a collapse again. Judging from today, Toure's timely recovery from injury will have a direct impact on the away game against Milan. Senderos is slow and it is worth being wary of Milan's entire central axis, with Nesta, Andrea Pirlo and Kaka all rested this weekend and not playing, which, combined with the extremely fast Pato, will put a lot of pressure on Arsenal. Therefore, it is crucial for Toure to return to the team in time, and I hope they can withstand this hurdle, even if the Premier League does not have the dream of winning the championship in the end, but as long as they pass the Milan hurdle in the Champions League, they still have a chance.
The Blues, who were chasing the top two in the table, put on a beautiful counter-attack. Their biggest takeaway was a 4-0 win back from the Carabao Cup final.
The second takeaway is to find the turning point of the Carabao Cup, through the League Cup, Grant has realized that the season has entered the most critical period, and more than two months are not enough for him to find a suitable two-center forward combination routine.
Anelka and Drogba combined to occupy a position of good attacking players on the wing, and Drogba was not well supported. Reduced threat in sports warfare. So the League Cup was lost.
Fortunately, Grant showed the essence of a good coach: decisively gave up 442 and returned to 433. Either Didier Drogba or Nicolas Anelka can play as a single striker, with two lineups on the wing, with Wright Jr. and Malouda on the bench. Essien, Mikel (suspended), and Drogba, the squad is strong enough.
In the end, the Blues exploded in the game, with Joe Cole making a pass and a shot to prove that the abandonment of the two-centre-forward was a decisive and successful arrangement.
Ballack and Frank Lampard coexisted on the road, with Didier Drogba receiving a cross and volleying in from the opposition. Why is this happening? I think it's because the features don't conflict. Especially away, today's Glatt instilled the tactical intention of passing quickly and immediately splitting sides to counterattack. So the dual cores don't have much of a conflict.
At home, there may be two players who have asked for too many goals in the past. If you want to organize the situation by yourself, the two away from home cooperate well. The important thing is that Chelsea achieve two sets of line-ups, fully capable of adapting to the 433. The biggest takeaway from the London derby was to get back the best of the existing attacking players. At the same time, it can also keep up with Manchester United's momentum of grabbing points, and can become Manchester United's henchman in the final stage of the league title.
The other advantage is against Arsenal and Manchester United, both at Stamford Bridge. So I think the final title will be a title fight in April.
Finally, there is Manchester United. The big win in this round of the game is both before and during the game. It was Manchester United who won because the opponents were too weak.
The Reds have a decent mix in midfield and today there was another one, with Park Ji-sung and Hargreaves also netting the opening goals. The outbreak of the two also has a lot to do with the healthy competition among the midfielders. If Park Ji-sung can score more goals, he can share the pressure of Jonk and Ronaldo scoring goals. The two Portuguese are sure to be the target of public scrutiny on all fronts, and how to resolve them will be the focus of Ferguson's research. A one-point gap is only a matter of time, and sooner or later United will reclaim the throne.
Manchester United beat Fulham twice for the third season in a row, with a goal difference of 19-4. However, the 3-0 score did not make Ferguson so happy that he lost his mind. He said Manchester United were serious about winning the game.
The number jù also says something about it, although United take the lead in attacking jù such as shots. However, the time spent on the ball (48.6%) was not as high as that of Fulham. 'I don't think Manchester United are in very good shape and it was windy today, so in these conditions you have to concentrate really well, and they did it and they did it well, and my players are very professional and professional.
Ferguson pointed out that Park Ji-sung's second goal completely killed Fulham, in other words, the game had a result after the first 45 minutes. 'Fulham didn't cause too much trouble in our back zone but elsewhere they played well and passed the ball well, so it was a test for us.
"Park Ji-sung's goal killed the opponent. I'm very happy [to see him score] because he hasn't scored for almost a year. Of course, Hargreaves is also happy to break the goal drought, I have seen him score like this in training, and today he showed his ability in front of everyone.
In contrast to the 5-1 thrashing of Newcastle, United rotated in a number of positions to surprisingly good effect, and Ferguson said everyone was proud of their performance. 'You have to have confidence in your team, players you believe in. The main 11 I chose today showed their keen desire to win and they played very hard. ”
Ferguson admits to being happier than winning is that they are ready for next week's clash with Lyon. 'The most important thing for me is that all the players can play in the Champions League on Tuesday against Lyon. It's very important for Manchester United, so I put Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo on the bench for this game. ”
With the microphone on Ferguson's lips, there is no way to avoid the question of title prospects, and Ferguson says the title race will be tortuous. "The battle for the top spot is like a seesaw bobbing up and down." Ferguson said: "We were ahead and then Arsenal extended the number to five points and now there is only one point left between the two sides. ”
'Of course we can't ignore Chelsea. They played a strong game today with a big win over West Ham. It looks like the Blues are on track. The most important thing for United is to stay motivated, the players are saying they want to play and have a big appetite, and that spirit is great for him personally and for the whole as a whole. 'Ferguson has put 3-0 behind him and the real big game for him and Manchester United is next week against Lyon.
Ferguson said the Reds are the best they have been in charge of for 21 years, and the availability of personnel is one of the aspects, with a 6-2 win over Arsenal in the FA Cup, "everybody will sit on the bench or even in the stands at some point, like Fletcher, who showed how important he is to this team in the game against Arsenal. Everyone is part of the team, whether they are on the pitch or on the bench. Ferguson said.
However, not all positions in the Manchester United squad can be rotated, and Ferguson dared to let Cr Rotveis rest when he played against Arsenal, but the lord retained the entire main defence, more precisely, the main central defensive combination of Ferdinand and Vidic could not be played. 'The centre-backs can't rotate like a midfielder,' said Ferguson, 'and they're a pair, they need to be tackle and complement each other in the game, and there's no reason to rest them. ”
Breaking apart Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, Ferguson suffered just three defeats in 27 league games, a 1-0 defeat to Bolton Wanderers where young centre-back Gerard Pique made the mistake. The two started five games together, Manchester United won all of them and secured the top spot in the group, and the last leg was at Roma, where Ferguson gave the newcomers a chance to work without any pressure.
The importance of United's main centre-back combination was evident at the end of last season, when Rio Ferdinand was injured at AC Milan and Nemanja Vidic's form was affected by Vidic's injury, and as a result, United were unable to hold on to their home win and were knocked out of the final by the Rossoneri. When they returned to the Premier League, Manchester United was again invincible.
In a word: Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic are "above the rotation". However, Ferguson needs to be more vigilant about this, and if the two are injured, the consequences could be severe.
In fact, everyone is being led into a misunderstanding by the cunning Ferguson, thus ignoring a very important key point.
That is Manchester United killing God Jonker, Ferguson deliberately said some other problems before the media, all of his thoughts are directed to the other side, there are fewer people who pay attention to Jonk, he is Manchester United's biggest weight, it is not difficult to see from all competitions, the previous dependence between the two seems to have become Jonker dependence, it is strange to say, last season in the AC Milan period, Ancelotti also encountered such a problem.
Kaka and Jonk dominated the attacking end of the team, and after a while, Jonk gradually dominated everything, and although the two world-class coaches shy away from such questions, all the qiē is hidden in the numbers, and if you pay attention, it is not difficult to see that the trajectories of Jonk in Milan and Manchester United are strikingly similar.
In other words, Jonk is able to become the absolute core of any team in a short period of time, and in just over half a year, he will always deliver a surprisingly efficient and gorgeous number jù.
Both coaches are diverting the attention of the media and winning more space for Jonker!
At this moment, Jonk is also enjoying a rare rest, after the big win over Fulham, the main players have a day off, after getting up in the morning, Jonk simply ate some breakfast after coming back from running, and is ready to go out to visit NANA, who has not been seen for a long time!
It's time for him to take the initiative, think about it, it's always been Nana who comes to find Jonk or call, he has never taken the initiative once, and the big man is a little too much.
On a rare holiday, Jonk decided to go to the University of Manchester to surprise NANA.
The University of Manchester is one of the eight most famous universities in the world with the highest ranking in the UK, the world's top 50 universities, the highest world ranking in the past years is 26th in the world, the first of the six famous "red brick universities" in the UK, and one of the founding members of the Russell University Group of the British "Ivy League", founded in 1824, located in Manchester, the second largest city in England. There are 25 Nobel laureates among the school's alumni.
The University of Manchester has four faculties: the Faculty of Engineering and Physics, the Faculty of Humanities, the Faculty of Life Sciences, and the Faculty of Medicine and Human Sciences.
And today Jonk is going to visit the Humanities College, which has the strongest artistic atmosphere. (To be continued......)
