Chapter 366 The End of the Legendary Showdown

Chapter 365 The End of the Legendary Showdown
With the overall economic downturn in Europe, the once-hot football market has gradually shrunk.

The most affected is Italy. It used to be a small World Cup, the world's first league, and now Juventus and Naples, which are the best in the market, usually only have half-full seats.

Spain and France are not immune either. Except for the two giants, the attendance rate of the stands of other teams is less than 5% all the year round, and some are even worse than the football market of the Chinese Super League.

Germany is different, they are the least affected, because Germany's compact manufacturing and high-level technicians have markets all over the world, and the German government's economic policy has successfully survived the crisis of the European economic downturn, German fans have money in their pockets, and the football market is naturally hot.

The football market in the UK is relatively not as good as Germany, but it is much better than the other three leagues. Among them, Arsenal is the most popular football market. When it was still Highbury Stadium, Arsenal had the highest attendance rate for 7 consecutive seasons.

Regardless of attendance, Arsenal's season ticket prices are the highest in the Premier League.Arsenal's season ticket prices are more than three times that of Manchester City's, and the top four most expensive season ticket prices are all teams based in London.They are Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea and West Ham.

Among the three giants in Northwest England, Liverpool's season ticket price is higher than that of the Manchester duo.

The attendance rate is the highest, and the ticket price is the highest. This can only explain one problem. Arsenal has many fans and money!
However, over the years, Arsenal fans have spent huge sums of money over the years in exchange for the team's poor results and the sale of their favorite stars. This has to be said to be a tragedy.

Arsenal fans protested and threatened the club with various defenses, but it was useless, they wanted to build a new stadium.So they can only continue a vicious circle between finances, selling stars, and poor results!
Ji Dong actually felt sorry for the Arsenal fans, but it wasn't because of ticket prices and team results, but because of...

This is the first league game after Manchester United won the championship in advance. At the entrance ceremony of players from both sides, Arsenal players lined up to welcome the champion Manchester United.This kind of ceremony also happened at Old Trafford, when Arsenal were champions.

However, there are not many Manchester United players who still have an impact on this. It can be seen that Arsenal have not won the championship for Manchester United for a long time.

……

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, Rooney, Rooney scored twice! In the 37th minute, before the end of the first half, Manchester United scored 2:0 away!

Even in the face of a tired Manchester United, Arsenal still have nothing to do.Facts have proved that they have lost their former glory, or that they no longer have the capital to compete with Manchester United, at least not this season!

Congratulations to Rooney, this is his 32nd goal this season, and it was Lin who assisted him this time. "

For the second round of the Champions League semi-finals, Ferguson did not send all the main players in this game. Among the players who started the game last game, only Lin Yi, Rooney, Carrick and De Gea started.

It's not that Ferguson is arrogant, it's really that Manchester United doesn't need to take risks when they win the championship, and Manchester United has already won the Premier League ahead of schedule. In addition, Manchester United's so-called substitute ability is really strong, and they are all players who are fully capable of his main force.

Only 5 minutes into the game, Phil Jones' shot from outside the penalty area was saved, and Rooney easily made a supplementary shot into the net in front of the goal.

After 1:0, the game entered the rhythm of Manchester United. Fletcher and Lin Yi's partnership in the midfield was very tacit. Although they did not cooperate much in the game, they cooperated many times in training, so there is no rust at all.

Rooney's second goal was after Lin Yi and Fletcher played two consecutive ones. In the end, Lin Yi sent a deadly diagonal pass in the middle to give Rooney a single-handed chance.

Facing his old club in this game, Van Persie in the trident did not get a chance to play. Ferguson thoughtfully put him on the bench. Of course, it was said to let Van Persie rest and prepare for the Champions League.

"Rooney has scored 32 goals so far this season and he is now the top scorer by himself.

Ranked second is his teammate, Van Persie, who is sitting on the bench in this field.

The third place is still his teammates. Lin scored 25 goals, but with the assists just given to Rooney, Lin Yi already has 44 assists, which is almost a miracle!
As for the fourth place in the scorer list, Tottenham's superstar Bale has scored 19 goals.

It can be said that this season's Premier League Golden Boot will be produced in Manchester United's trident.

Looking at Manchester United this season, Lin put more energy and shooting feeling down the Champions League. In the Premier League, he is more of a delivery for his teammates, but even so Lin still has 25 goals.

From the current point of view, this season's Premier League Golden Boot is more likely to be produced between Rooney and Van Persie!
The Dutchman was the winner of the Golden Boot last season. Although Rooney is a top striker, he has never won the Premier League Golden Boot before. Now is his chance.

In fact, the Premier League has not had a local top scorer for 12 years. The last time England won this honor was Kevin Phillips. He won the Golden Boot with Queens Park Rangers in the 1999-2000 season, and he was also elected as the European Golden Boot for a single season.

Premier League Golden Boot, European Golden Boot, these two honors have been far away from England for too long.The other shooters in the five major leagues this season do not currently have Rooney. Will he surprise England fans?Can he break the season record of 5 goals created by two teammates?
We look forward to! "

When commentators don't talk about the game and instead analyze the Golden Boot competition, it can only show that the game has lost its suspense.

What made the game lose suspense was not the score of 0:2, but Arsenal's state on the court. Except for the ball possession data, it was comparable to Manchester United, and other meaningful data Arsenal fell behind.Even Manchester United has more fouls and yellow cards, which shows that Arsenal is not as good as Manchester United in terms of aggressiveness and enthusiasm for the game!
In the first half, Wenger would still yell on the sidelines, but in the second half, he started to practice on the bench. The poor jacket kept rubbing up and down during practice, which seemed to express Wenger's helpless heart.

In the 56th minute, Ferguson replaced Lin Yi with Shinji Kagawa. In the 63rd minute, Welbeck replaced Rooney. So far, the Manchester United tridents have been sitting on the bench to watch the scenery.

The rest of the trident did not cool down the hot barrel of Manchester United. On the contrary, the players on the field wanted to show their brilliance to Ferguson without the presence of the three suns, and they worked harder.

The harder you work, the luckier you are. Shinji Kagawa and Rafael, the two usual substitutes, successfully seized the opportunity to perform.In the 71st minute, the Japanese passed Ramsey and Arteta consecutively in the frontcourt and sent a 20-meter precise through pass.The Brazilian Rafael, who played as the starting right back in this game, waited in the corner of the penalty area. He received a through ball from the Japanese king and shot directly with his foot. Szesny did not respond at all.

3:1, Wenger started to stop playing the zipper, he put his head in his hands and closed his eyes in meditation.He is in pain, not only in the disintegration of the dynasty he has worked so hard to build, but also in the pain of cultivating so many talented players for so many years, and now he wants to replace him without knowing who to replace or who to replace.

Many of these players are not worthy of Arsenal's jersey at all. To be honest, some of them can only be regarded as mediocrity.

However, Wenger also overlooked one point. Today, Arsenal has not won a championship for many years, and they have gradually slipped from the throne of the giants. It can be said that there is no player who is not worthy of the Arsenal jersey, and everyone is just right.

Where is the way for Arsenal?

Hey, it's a pity. You must know that in today's football, Ronaldo and Messi have lost consecutively. The superstar Lin Yi who is in full swing is infinitely close to Arsenal.

If I could have watched more scouting videos, if I had kept Lin Yi in London who was going back to China, if...

There are not so many ifs in the world. In short, now that Lin Yi belongs to Manchester United, then Manchester United is destined to continue to overwhelm Arsenal.This is Wenger's sorrow, but also Arsenal's misfortune!
Maybe, it's time to leave!
Like Ferguson, Wenger is not just a simple head coach for Arsenal, but the Frenchman has never entered the core of Arsenal's rights, and he will always be just a senior employee of the club.This is the biggest difference between him and Ferguson!

But Wenger was really not reconciled. Ferguson found the most suitable players and lineup for Manchester United. What he left behind was a balanced and orderly lineup and a stable and peaceful dressing room.

And if Wenger leaves Arsenal, what will happen?Maybe Arsenal will collapse, maybe the fans will miss him, maybe nothing will happen!

"Wenger, get out of class!"

"We need to change, maybe with Wenger!"

Just when Wenger was wondering if it would be better if he left Arsenal, someone from the Arsenal fans in the stands played a banner telling Wenger to leave get out of class.

At this point, Wenger finally decided, maybe it's time to make a change!

Of course, Wenger hopes to take care of his affairs before he leaves, just like Ferguson did.

Substitutions, Wenger replaced Ramsey with Chamberlain, and Wilshere replaced Rosicky.This is Ferguson's last visit to Arsenal as Manchester United coach, and he doesn't want to use an embarrassing score to end the final battle between the two.

"There is no suspense about the outcome. Now let's see if Arsenal can score. Wenger's substitutions are also desperate. His goal is very clear, to score goals!"

Wenger's desperate play still played a role. In the 81st minute of the game, Wilshere and Walcott got a breakthrough from the center and sent a single shot. Podolski did as he said before the game. He used a low shot to break through the gate of De Gea's handle.

3:1, Arsenal finally saved a little face!
The Germans didn't celebrate after the goal, neither did the other Arsenal players, they didn't even interact with the home fans, in fact there weren't many Arsenal fans in the stands anymore.

……

"The game is over. Congratulations to Manchester United for their 33rd victory of the season. They have continued their unbeaten season. In three rounds, they will become the second unbeaten Premier League team after Arsenal!
But before that, Manchester United continued to refresh the scoring record created in the 33rd round. Now Manchester United has 101 points in the league. This game announced that the Premier League has entered the era of scoring hundreds of points. "

At the end of the game, Manchester United won again in the second round of the season against Arsenal, and Manchester United double-killed their opponents.Arsenal said aggressively before the game that it was a joke to stop Manchester United from being unbeaten, and they could do nothing.Even during the game, they "enjoyed" the heckling of diehard Arsenal fans, angry at the team's slump.

23 wins, 9 draws and 16 losses, this is the result of Ferguson's battle with Wenger.Wenger was a little embarrassed in the final battle with Ferguson, and he seemed very helpless in the handshake after the game!

"I wanted to end our fight with a win, but unfortunately I didn't."

The old opponent was leaving, and Wenger felt the need to say something, but he really didn't know what to say, so he just said something casually.In short, everything is good, just to say, Ferguson must understand what Wenger meant.

"Thank you! Although I have said thank you before, I have to say that only this time is the most sincere!
I'm going to retire, I wish you all the best in your future work! "

Ferguson was also a little moved. This opponent who has been fighting with him for 17 years, the two have teamed up to monopolize the Premier League championship, and they always have a feeling of sympathy for each other!

"I wish you all the best in the future, maybe I will go to drink with you when I retire!"

"Thank you, I will prepare Bordeaux red wine for you!"

After the simple words, Wenger hugged Ferguson again, and then Wenger turned and walked into the locker room. His back was so gloomy that people who didn't know thought it was the French who was about to retire.

"Wenger was the first to return to the dressing room. This pair of old enemies lasted 17 years and 48 games came to an end, but the legendary story of these two people will always be engraved in the history of the Premier League.

They are both great coaches, but there is no friendship between two great people, never, but looking at the hug just now, I always feel that they are finally friends now.

Congratulations to Manchester United again, they are only 3 games away from winning the unbeaten title! "

With the victory of Manchester United's trip to the Emirates Stadium, the story of the two legendary coaches finally came to an end!

　What a hell, the red card for the Colombian team, hey, I'm speechless!I originally wanted to use the Japanese team's failure to seek votes, but now I can only wish Japan and South Korea the second round defeat.

　　Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a recommendation!
