Chapter 681 The Dutch Big Three! Feyenoord!
This week Arsenal will usher in a week of double matches.
Both the Europa League and the Premier League need to play games.
Fortunately, the opponent is not particularly strong. Although there are away games, Arsenal has enough confidence.
In the upcoming Europa League game, Mourinho intends to play with all the main players.
The competition intensity of the UEFA Europa League is very differentiated, the strong ones are very strong, and the weak ones are very weak.
In this kind of schedule, more rotations should be carried out to ensure that the main players get enough rest.
But after losing in the Europa League in the last round, Mourinho did not dare to do this.
It is still necessary to be more stable, first win the game and stabilize the situation.
Otherwise, if they didn’t even appear in the group stage, it would be a big game.
On September 29, in the second round of the Europa League group stage, Arsenal will face the Dutch team Feyenoord at home.
Feyenoord, Ajax and PSV Eindhoven are known as the Big Three of Dutch football.
They also became a world-class team in the 1970s, and even won the first European Champions Cup trophy for the Netherlands, two UEFA Cup trophies, and won 15 Eredivisie league titles.
It can be said to be a ‘historic’ strong team.
However, with the advancement of commercial football, talents began to gradually flow to the five major leagues, the Eredivisie began to decline, and Feyenoord’s competitiveness gradually declined.
Despite a good performance in the league, in the entire European arena, there is a lack of sufficient intensity.
Together with the structure of the Dutch youth training and the impact of brain drain, Feyenoord was also forced to become a young guard.
The age structure of the team is highly differentiated.
There are as many as four main players who are 22 years old, and the average age is only 25 years old.
Among them, midfielder No. 10 Villena is widely concerned by the domestic media in the Netherlands. This young player born in 1995 has shown good abilities since the youth training period. Many people are optimistic about Villena’s future, saying his future Not in the Netherlands, but in the five major leagues.
The same is true for Villena himself. Joining the five major leagues and joining the giants is the dream of every player.
For Villena, this game at the Emirates Stadium is particularly critical.
Before the game, in an interview with the Dutch media, Villena once said frankly to the media:
”Arsenal is a strong opponent, but it is because they are so strong that they are worth defeating. We are not afraid of this. A battle!”
When talking about Lucky, Villena also showed a genius and unruly side.
”I admit that his performance was wonderful. He is a talented player, but I am also a genius. I will prove in the game that I can deal with Kai, but I did not win the game!”
Villena said It also successfully entered the hands of the British media.
However, the negative reports are unremarkable. After all, there are too many so-called ‘geniuses’ clamoring towards Lucky every year, but are there any successful examples?
In their view, this is Villena’s show to gain attention.
Comparing Lucky with Villena, is there any comparison?
These two are not at the same level at all!
The public opinion that Villena envisioned did not appear, and many of the media ridiculed him, which also made the proud Villena unacceptable.
During the warm-up at the Emirates Stadium, Villena stood in his own half, staring at Lucky.
Le Kai also felt the other party’s gaze, and turned his head to stare angrily.
What are you looking at?
Villena pursed her lips slightly, turned her head and continued to warm up.
Soon, the two sides returned to the locker room.
The head coaches of both sides set up tactics.
The starting lineups of both sides are as follows:
Arsenal (4-2-3-1):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.
Midfielders: Aubameyang, Kanter, Wilshere, Lucky, Mane.
Forward: Lukaku.
Feyenoord (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Jones.
Defenders: Karlsdorp, Burtkin, Van der Heyden, Kongolo.
Midfielders: Ahmadi, Dirk, Villena.
Forwards: Boguis, Jorgensen, Tostra.
Coincidentally, Lucky and Villena came to the same side, which also means that there must be a direct confrontation.
”Vilena and Kay stand on the same side. This is a challenge from Villena to Kai. However… I am not optimistic about Villena. After all, many talented players have thought of defeating Kai to become famous, but they all They all failed!”
”And Kai’s form is still hot, does Villena really have a chance?”
Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray shook his head.
He felt that Villena should not provoke Le Kai before the game, which would have a certain impact on his performance.
Who knows, whether Lucky will make a targeted defense against him.
On the commentary stand in the Netherlands, the commentator shouted loudly; “Vilena, the child of the sky, he is an unparalleled genius, and he will show his unparalleled skills in this game!” In the
field, Will Hill grinned and showed his cold teeth, and asked Le Kai; “Do you need me to give that little guy a run for his money?”
Le Kai waved his hand and said, “Don’t play these little tricks, remember not to eat cards!”
Hearing this, Wilshere shrugged, this is Lucky’s action.
For this, Wilshere observed a moment of silence for that Villena.
At most, it was a physical pain when he did it, but Le Kai was a spiritual blow, and it was easy to be devastated.
Wilshere had such thoughts, but Lucky had no such thoughts at all.
To be honest, he didn’t care much about Villena at all, he just wanted to win the game.
Beep! !
The whistle sounded and the game began.
Feyenoord took the lead.
After a few passes, the ball came to Villena’s feet. This guy’s foot frequency is very fast. The special envoy relies on his youth and his body’s ability to change directions quickly.
Shaking left and right, I had a great time playing.
Lucky moved forward slightly, but Villena passed the ball very quickly, and did not engage in a direct confrontation with Lucky.
Le Kai turned around and faced the other side, assisting in defense.
However, the ball was passed back to Villena again.
Judging from the frequency of Feyenoord’s passes, Villena is the core point of their offense.
Thinking of this, Le Kai suddenly started and posted it instantly.
This turn of events startled Villena.
So fast!
Lucky moved forward and approached too fast, and Villena’s extraordinary distance disappeared in an instant.
Villena hurriedly wanted to pull the ball and distance himself.
But at this time, Le Kai took another step forward and poked his toe.
The ball was stabbed to Wilshere’s feet, and Arsenal took advantage of the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
”Beautiful!! Kai’s steal!! Villena is too proud, he can’t keep Kai so close, and he still wants to pull away and continue to try to break through. This is an extremely wrong decision!”
Ann Di Gray shook his head slightly, secretly denying Villena.
So many top football players have suffered from Lucky, let alone Villena.
He didn’t believe that Feyenoord’s coach hadn’t focused on this issue, and he still made this kind of action, which meant that this guy violated the tactical arrangement.
This is not the attitude a professional player should have.
”Damn!!!”
Feyenoord’s head coach Van Bronckhorst waved his arm angrily.
He was outraged by Villena’s choice.
This guy does have some strong talents, but talents are talents, and talents that cannot be exchanged cannot be used as weapons.
In fact, Villena had another nickname at Feyenoord besides ‘Children of the Sky’.
’Spoiled child! Villena was also a little confused .
This extremely practical skill in the league suddenly didn’t work.
But he didn’t have time to think too much, so he hurried back to press down.
Although he is spoiled, he still knows that if he loses the ball, he will grab it by himself.
On a rampage all the way, Villena continued to confront Wilshere.
But compared to Lucky’s clean and tidy style of play, Wilshere is not like this.
During the run, Wilshere moved towards Villena’s waist, and immediately took another side step, directly blocking Villena’s body, disrupting the opponent’s rhythm, and then slid into the big hole In the restricted area, he shot furiously.
The ball was dragged out of the baseline by the opponent’s goalkeeper.
Arsenal’s first attack failed to score.
Wilshere also shook his head slightly regretfully.
But soon, Villena rushed to the referee, wanting to ask for an explanation.
But the referee did not give any signal, and warned the opponent to back off with his eyes, or he would draw his cards.
Villena could only leave angrily.
Regarding this, Wilshere sneered, so he is still a rookie!
Three more sent! !
