Chapter 60: Beating Manchester United and facing Schalke (transitional text)
old trafford
Almost all the Manchester United fans left.
They are not disappointed with Manchester United, they also know that their players have tried their best.
But I don’t want to see Arsenal fans singing the Arsenal team song and playing tricks on their own territory.
As excited as Arsenal fans are, they are also sad.
This is the first time they have suffered such a defeat in this stadium.
They held their heads high and let the tears fall back into their eyes,
They loudly told their friends: "We didn't lose to Arsenal, we just lost to that boy."
"There is no shame in losing to the brutal emperor with five goals and two assists, because he is the emperor..."
And they firmly believe that Manchester United is not the biggest creditor in the hands of the cruel emperor. There must be someone who will be worse off than Manchester United!
At the same time, they also firmly believe that this revenge will definitely be avenged.
Ferguson and the Manchester United players were blue in the face. This was the first time since Manchester United was founded that they had been abandoned by the fans.
Even in the era of being suppressed by Liverpool, fans have never collectively left the stadium early.
Tonight, it happened.
Lingard cried, Ferdinand's eyes were wet, Rooney's eyes were red...
They wanted to save everything in the remaining ten minutes, but Arsenal was watertight and their midfield was well organized...
On the contrary, Manchester United players work alone, forgetting that football is a team sport.
The results speak for themselves!
Beep!
The game is over!
Lingard, Nani, Rooney...all cried when the whistle blew, as if they had lost the World Cup.
In particular, captain Rooney was sitting on the lawn, crying like a three-year-old child, but no one was laughing at him, and even Arsenal fans looked away from him.
At this moment, these crying people are also heroes.
Ferguson turned around and walked away without even shaking Wenger's hand.
Arsenal captain Vermaelen rushed to Xia Qi after the whistle and hugged him tightly: "Thank you!"
As soon as the whistle started tonight, he "assisted" Robin van Persie. If Arsenal loses this game, he will definitely be a sinner.
"Captain, should we go thank the fans who traveled with the team?"
"Ok!"
Arsenal players held hands in front of the Arsenal fans' stands and bowed in thanks!
Xia Qi generously kicked the ball into the stands.
At Vermaelen's suggestion, all players threw their jerseys to the fans...
Xia Qi and the others have returned to the dressing room, but the Arsenal fans are still unwilling to disperse and continue to celebrate in the stadium. The longer they can sing the Arsenal anthem and laugh loudly in the heart of their old enemy, the better...
Post-match press conference
Ferguson chewed gum and greeted reporters he met as he walked into the venue. Those who didn't know thought he was the winner tonight.
Ferguson: Tonight's game is a disgrace to me, a disgrace to Manchester United and a disgrace to Old Trafford...
But I'm still proud of the kids, they faced the difficulties and played with the momentum of the Red Devils. Especially Ashley Young's save, which was a match for Nannisheng. "
Pro-Arsenal reporter in the press box: Uh-huh….
Nani's pulling, elbowing and pushing were revealed to the public in slow motion replay. I really don't see anything to be proud of.
But they don't know that time will make people forget Nani's little actions. In the future, people will only remember that Nani had eaten Xia Qi tonight.
"I only have one thing to say about Xia Qi: he is lucky to belong to England.
When Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard... are getting older, young talents such as Xia Qi, Wilshere, Lingard... have emerged. This is the greatest success of the Premier League.
Xia Qi, who scored 7 goals in 23 games, is undoubtedly the best among these young talents.
If he continues to grow like this, he will be the winner of the Golden Boy Award next year.
I really can't think of such a person. Why does coach Hodgson not call him into the team? ?
If Xia Qi is recruited into the national team, it is recommended that Wilshere be recruited into the national team as well. History has proven that the best partner in the club will also be the best partner in the national team. "
Ferguson said so much, but the real purpose is the last sentence. Wilshere and Xia Qi must be recruited into the national team.
This is exactly what Wenger fears most.
Wenger: "England's prospects for qualifying are very optimistic. If they rashly add new members midway, they will have to re-adjust themselves.
This will affect England's results. I don't think coach Hodgson needs to take this risk when the qualifying situation is advantageous. "
The two people's different opinions also caused widespread controversy. The online media also quickly took sides. The public said what was public and the mother-in-law said what the mother-in-law said.
...
...
After the end of this round of the Premier League, Arsenal became the biggest winner.
The championship rivals stumbled and were all tied by underdogs in away games.
West Ham United drew with Manchester City 0:0, and Swansea drew with Chelsea 1:1.
In this way, after 10 rounds of the Premier League, Arsenal temporarily ranks first in the standings.
Arsenal has 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, totaling 23 points.
Manchester United has 7 points with 0 wins, 3 draws and 21 losses.
Manchester City has 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, totaling 21 points.
Chelsea has 6 points with 2 wins, 1 draw and 20 loss.
...
...
Xia Qi is also the winner after this round.
The media praised him to shame.
"The Ice King arrives at the Dream Theater, and the 95th Supreme seals the victory at halftime!" 》
"Goals in the first half, assists in the second half, 7 goals to kill the Red Devils. 》
"Death of the Red Devils, Arsenal's Night of Revenge", directed by Ice King. 》
On the way to the airport, Xia Qi's mouth kept rising as he heard the regional legend level +1 kept coming to his ears.
In addition, Xia Qi earned 10 attribute points as rewarded by the system, and also received a hidden mission to double kill Manchester United.
However, these are not his biggest gains.
On the plane back to London, Wenger deliberately sat next to him and asked Balotelli in detail about some situations.
This means that there is a chance that another hidden mission will be completed.
Thinking of being able to leave a legend of three stripes on the court in the future, and being able to hang his jersey in front of a feud... Xia Qi felt that he had another reason to work hard.
Return to Jack's boarding house.
He found his agent Joanna waiting for him at home.
"Hey, Sister Anna, why don't you call me?"
Joanna glanced at the Jack family on the other side of the living room.
He motioned to Xia Qi to go to his room.
"Xia, Three Stripes and Little Diagonal Hook want to be endorsed by you, but the price is not high. You decide which one first, and then I'll talk to them."
"These three lines and..."
"Whatever, sign a short-term contract, I believe my future will be better."
"Okay, I'm here mainly because Manchester United assistant coach Gary asked me to meet."
"what?"
"He's about to retire, and he's still doing all sorts of things. I won't go anywhere. I'm fine here."
"Understood. I also feel that it is better to be still than to move. Now that you are the absolute main force of Arsenal, it is not appropriate..."
"Don't worry, Sister Anna, I'm not that superficial."
After a small episode, Xia Qi continued to prepare for the battle.
After the league, Arsenal will face their third opponent in the Champions League group stage - Schalke 04 at home.
