The Arsenal fans in the stadium were stunned; the 60,000-seat arena was now filled only with the away supporters celebrating boisterously! In Old John's barbecue restaurant, someone shouted: "Wenger OUT!" Then others joined in, and soon the entire place was echoing with a unified chant: "Wenger OUT! Wenger OUT! Wenger OUT!"

The reserve team players were worried. Would the first team miss out on next season's Champions League? Would they even miss out on the Europa League? What if they got relegated? This wasn't just a first-team issue; the entire club would be affected! Arsenal hadn't been relegated in nearly a hundred years; if it happened now, it would be a lifelong disgrace!

Lu Junfeng remained calm. In his memory, Arsenal under Wenger had indeed struggled in the later years, such as last season when they lost 8-2 to Manchester United. But every year in the second half of the league, they managed to kick into high gear and ultimately secured a top-four finish! That was also the origin of the nickname "Fourth Place Fanatics." However, Arsenal shouldn't be this bad—only two points after four matches? He didn't recall such a situation happening before. Could it be that his presence had altered the timeline? The butterfly effect?

While he was lost in thought, the match entered stoppage time. All Arsenal players surged forward, desperate to score an equalizer. Even goalkeeper Szczęsny rushed into the opponent's penalty area during a corner kick, hoping to use his height advantage to head one in. Unfortunately, this corner was cleared by the opponents, leaving Arsenal without a goalkeeper at the back!

Szczęsny desperately tried to run back, but Swansea's Michu had already received the ball at midfield and faced an open goal for a powerful shot! Many Arsenal fans covered their eyes, unable to watch what would happen next. However, nothing could stop the ball from flying into the unguarded net!

0-2! Michu scored twice, handing Arsenal their second consecutive defeat! They had only earned two points from four matches! Meanwhile, Swansea had won all four of their games and accumulated 12 points, placing them at the top of the Premier League table!

The Arsenal fans in the barbecue restaurant were devastated. They simply couldn't accept this outcome. Tottenham fans were reveling in their misfortune. "Wow! Looks like Arsenal won't be playing in next season's Champions League. But you can come watch Tottenham's Champions League matches instead. Oh no! Maybe next season Arsenal won't even be playing in the Premier League; you'll have to settle for watching them in the Championship! Ha ha!"

These remarks infuriated Arsenal fans. However, since it was Saul Green, son of the respected Dr. Green from town who was speaking, everyone held back their anger and didn't confront him. Suddenly, Saul Green felt darkness enveloping him. A massive figure blocked his view. Then he found himself being lifted by his collar by that intimidating giant! It was Lu Junfeng!

Lu didn't know who Dr. Green was; he only knew that this guy had a foul mouth! His teammates were terrified and quickly rushed over to dissuade him. If he hurt someone, it would be illegal and ruin Lu's professional prospects! The Tottenham fans at Saul Green's table initially wanted to help him but seeing Lu standing at 1.9 meters tall and weighing over 200 pounds with an intimidating demeanor made them only dare to hide nearby and shout insults.

Saul Green was terrified; his legs dangled as he struggled desperately while putting on a brave front: "What are you doing?! Put me down!" Lu tightened his grip around his neck and said fiercely: "Remember this face! I will become a starter for Arsenal and crush your pathetic Tottenham forever!"

The commotion in the barbecue restaurant eventually calmed down thanks to Old John's mediation. Back in his dormitory, Lu lay on his bed contemplating his future and that of the club. Did Arsenal still have a chance for revival? When would they hit rock bottom and bounce back? Would simply playing reserve matches increase his template compatibility?

While pondering these questions, he received a call from reserve team coach Banfield. Could it be that foul-mouthed Tottenham fan reported him? However, Banfield wasn't calling to scold him; instead, he brought good news: tomorrow he would join first-team training! Banfield encouraged him to perform well because this could be an opportunity for him to play with the first team!

The first team was currently struggling with attacking power! This news thrilled Lu beyond measure. If playing one reserve match could increase his compatibility by one percentage point, how much would it increase if he played in an official match with the first team? That would be like taking off!

Just as he was happily imagining this future, he received a text from Li Ke. It turned out Li Ke would also join first-team training tomorrow! And not just them; many players from the youth team were being pulled up to join as well. With UEFA Champions League group stage matches and domestic cup competitions starting soon, there would be a very packed schedule for the first team.

At this moment, they were facing an injury crisis and were severely short on personnel. Thus, these young players had great opportunities to play. Upon learning this truth, Lu remained very satisfied. Although he wasn't the only player being developed, there were indeed solid chances for him to play. He couldn't miss out on this opportunity for fame!
