Chapter 2140 Expedition
Time was fleeting, and when the professor finished explaining Atletico Madrid's overall lineup and tactics to his disciples, the team quickly spent the rest of the training time before the start of the game.

The day before the game, the Gunners team gathered in the team conference room, where the professor will announce the team's preliminary starting list for the next day.

In fact, although it was a preliminary decision, the team rarely re-determined the starting list on the day of the game. All the players looked at the professor eagerly, hoping that their names would appear in the team's starting list following his announcement.

"Tomorrow's game we will play 442."

Facing Atletico Madrid, which has a tough midfield and strong interception ability, the professor dare not overdo it. The 433 formation is good against a team with weak defense, but it will definitely not work against a team like Atletico Madrid.

"Forward, Giroud, Feng."

In the end, the striker partner with the most tacit cooperation and the most linkage was finalized. Giroud's ability to quickly put Poldowski on the bench after his comeback is definitely related to his strong chemical reaction with Liu Feng.

"Left midfielder Wilshere, center combination Ramsey, Ganso, right midfielder Cazorla."

Except for Ganso who is in charge of the core of the playmaker, the other three are definitely the toughest presence in Arsenal's midfield. Of course, there are players like Gustavo, but although his defense is strong, his offense is far from the impact of the three of Cavila.

"Tomorrow's game, the midfield will be the most important link. You must withstand the pressure from your opponents to ensure the team's possession of the ball!"

"understand!"

"Four backs, Alba, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Alves, goalkeeper Szczesny."

When it came to the position of the back line and the goalkeeper, the professor's choice returned to the tradition. The team's strongest back line played again. Several players whose names were called raised their heads and looked at the professor excitedly. You must know that they haven't appeared in the starting list together for a long time.

"Okay, there are players on the substitute list..."

After the announcement of the starting 11 players, the names of the players on the bench were quickly read out by the professor. Don't underestimate this group of players. Many of them go to other leagues and some top teams are enough to start.

It's a pity that they can only wait for the opportunity to appear on the pitch in the Arsenal team that is now sweeping Europe.

When the full roster was announced, the disappointment in the eyes of the players who didn't even have a penalty area on the substitute list could not be erased, but this is cruel competitive sports, and they can only accept the reality.

"Okay, you have three hours to go home and pack your luggage. The players who are traveling with the team will gather here on time at eight o'clock in the evening. We will leave for Madrid in advance."

"clear!!!"

After responding loudly to the professor, the players scattered and left the stadium. All the players drove their cars all the way home to pack up their things and said goodbye to their families or told them to pay attention to safety when they went to the away game to cheer for themselves.

Yes, this time due to the strength of the opponent, the club did not allow the players to have the quota for accompanying family members. They will do their best to prepare for this game and will not allow their family members to meet until after the game.

That night, the Gunners' chartered flight departed from the London International Stadium again. Today's players have adapted to the frequent away games every season, so that everyone feels at home with the club's frequently chartered flights.

After all, when the Gunners won the Champions League for the third time, the London airport painted the flight they often took in the red and white Gunners theme.

It was already midnight local time when the Arsenal team landed in Madrid, and everyone quickly followed the local guide arranged by the club to the hotel by bus.

For the city of Madrid, in fact, some old players of the team are not unfamiliar. They have come here more than once when they played against Real Madrid several times before.

This time, though, they will be fighting not at the Bernabeu but at the Wanda Metropolitano, home to Atletico Madrid, another equally strong team in the city.

Adhering to the principle of renting a training ground from their rivals in the city to challenge which team, when the players woke up the next day and assembled in the hotel, they took the bus to a secluded training base provided by Real Madrid.

On this match day, Real Madrid also went to the away game to fight Bayern Munich, which allowed the Gunners to experience the elegance of the Galacticos training base.

Of course, after arriving at the Real Madrid training base, the professor did not intend to let the team visit. He took advantage of the last morning to quickly start the team's final tactical drill, and the players quickly entered the state following the tense atmosphere.

Time soon came to the afternoon, and the professor was very satisfied with the status of the starting 11 players, so naturally he did not change any starting list.

As the game time drew closer, the entire Arsenal team took a bus to the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium after a simple lunch break. When the team drove through a deserted street and entered an area filled with red and white colors, the players realized that this was the territory of Atletico Madrid fans.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh"

From the moment I saw people around a corner, huge boos came to my face. Crazy Atletico Madrid fans succeeded in causing eardrum pain to the Gunners players on the Arsenal bus. Everyone had to put on their earphones.

However, this roar continued for a long time, reaching its peak when the team arrived at the gate of the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

Obviously, this stadium is not a good place in La Liga. According to the statistics of La Liga, this is the top three stadiums that other teams are least willing to go to.

What Simeone brought to Atletico Madrid is definitely more than just a change in the team's style. Even the fans of Atletico Madrid have become crazy and hostile to their opponents along with the leading brother.

It wasn't until they entered the stadium that the noise dissipated slightly from their ears. The players looked at each other and followed Wenger off the bus.

The players Wenger used in this game are all players who have seen the world. They will not have any psychological problems because of the terrifying atmosphere of the opponent's away game. This is why the professor put young players like Ronaldo on the bench.

Sometimes in such a battle, mentality may be more important than the player's own strength.

After all, once there is a psychological problem and only [-]% to [-]% of the power can be exerted, then it is really nothing.

"Okay, let's warm up!"

As the Arsenal team drove to the visiting team's dressing room to change their clothes, the professor waved his hand, and the team strode towards the interior of the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.
