Chapter 884 Strong Dialogue
The Champions League is over, but Manchester City can't breathe a sigh of relief, because the fifth round of the Premier League is coming, and Manchester City's opponent is still the championship contender Arsenal.
Although Arsenal has been away from the league championship for many years, one thing is undeniable, that is, Arsenal's strength must not be underestimated, otherwise it would be impossible to maintain the top four every year.
However, the good news for Manchester City is that Manchester City does not need to go to London. This contest will be held at Manchester City's home stadium, the Etihad Stadium.
Compared with the past, this season's contest is undoubtedly more interesting. Van Persie was the captain of Arsenal, but this season, he came to Manchester.
Van Persie's facing his old club is the biggest highlight of this round. Even after the Champions League ended, the English media has already started to hype the game.
The villa that Van Persie just bought is full of reporters. Of course, Van Persie will not let the media get what they want. He himself does not want the media to use him to operate.
In the eyes of ordinary people, there is nothing wrong with Van Persie leaving Arsenal for the dream of a championship, but in the eyes of Arsenal fans, their captain just abandoned them.
In addition to the relationship between Van Persie and Arsenal, the media comprehensively analyzed the strength of the two teams, first of all, the value of the players of the two teams. Manchester City can be said to be more than twice that of Arsenal.
According to the data given by "Sky Sports", the value of all Arsenal players is about 8000 million, while the value of Manchester City's team is close to [-] million euros.
Among them, Li Feng alone is worth more than half of the value of all Arsenal players. "Sky Sports" said, "Arsenal's entire team is not enough to buy two winds."
According to the situation of last season, Manchester City's worth is at most more than 5 million yuan, but Manchester City's two championships last season brought a considerable increase to Manchester City, and the value of Manchester City's players has also risen in an all-round way, which makes Manchester City's total value so high.
After the value, there is a comparison of the positions of the two teams. In this comparison, Arsenal is at a disadvantage in all aspects, which makes Arsenal fans extremely unhappy. You must know that Arsenal's results have been very good recently. After two consecutive draws, they won two or two wins and are currently unbeaten in the Premier League.
Of course, in this regard, Manchester City is undoubtedly much better than Arsenal. It has maintained a complete victory in four rounds of the league. This is the only team in the Premier League that has maintained a complete victory this season.
If the winning streak at the end of last season is added, Manchester City has won nine consecutive victories, and if it continues, Manchester City can hit Arsenal's record for the highest winning streak in the Premier League, 14 consecutive victories, and in the past season, Manchester City remained unbeaten at home.
Seeing that his team was at a disadvantage, Wenger naturally couldn't remain indifferent. "This comparison is meaningless. I always believe in our strength. We have rich experience and excellent players. Even if we are a guest at the Etihad Stadium, I still believe that we can take away a victory."
Wenger's words undoubtedly greatly encouraged Arsenal, and the London media did not forget to cheer for Arsenal. The situation in the Premier League today is the war between London and Manchester.
Although both sides are from England, there is also a competitive relationship between cities. The media located in London naturally wants to cheer for the teams in their own cities.
The "Times" shouted, "Arsenal has shown their potential. The previous rounds of the league have shown everything. They have the ability to compete for the league championship this season."
The "Sun" also came forward to shout for Arsenal, "Arsenal has been silent for too long. In this game, we will witness the re-emergence of Arsenal."
Faced with Arsenal's menacing approach, Van Basten's response disappointed many people. Regarding the question of Arsenal competing for the championship, Van Basten replied that "Arsenal is fully capable of competing for the relationship."
But the topic changed. "Of course, in the Premier League, not just Arsenal, many teams are championship contenders. We are also championship contenders. In this regard, we did a good job last season."
"Robin? It depends on his physical condition. You should know that we have just experienced a fierce battle with Juventus." Some media also asked whether Van Persie will appear in the next game.
Of course, Van Basten will not give an accurate answer. This is also a trick used by the head coach, but every time the media will routinely ask.
In London, Wenger was also asked about Van Persie, "Robin is an excellent player, I hope he will have a better life after leaving Arsenal." Faced with such a question, Wenger just said a few words of blessing.
Regarding the topic of Van Persie, the Arsenal players naturally couldn't bypass it when they were interviewed by the media, but to the disappointment of the media, the Arsenal players did not say anything ugly.
As for Manchester City's players, let alone the match against Arsenal, in the eyes of other Manchester City players, it is just an ordinary league in the league, but this opponent is generally much stronger.
Among the players on both sides, only Van Persie and Clichy have something to do with Arsenal. Unfortunately, Van Persie has been hyped up to the point, and the effect is not very obvious. As for Clichy, it is completely cold food, and as a full-back, Clichy has not received much attention.
Of course, in addition to the match between Manchester City and Arsenal, in this round of the league, there is also a match between Manchester United and Manchester United as a guest at Anfield.
After several rounds of league adaptation, Manchester United striker Falcao has shown a strong scoring ability. He has scored four goals in the league and ranks second in the scorer list with Van Persie.
Such a strong dialogue also gives another team, Chelsea, a chance. Currently, Chelsea are two points behind Manchester City. If Manchester City loses this game and Chelsea wins their opponents, then Mancini's team will complete the overtaking and reach the top of the list.
Li Feng is preparing for the battle in Europe, but in faraway Asia, Girls' Generation has already left Korea and came to Japan to start a new round of money-making activities. Of course, most of the money will go into their company's pockets.
And in the recent period, Li Feng met Taeyeon's parents the most, and from Taeyeon's mouth, Li Feng was initially approved by Taeyeon's parents, which is simply unbelievable.
This also makes Bingshan and Tiffany ready to move. You know, the two of them have actually had a relationship with Li Feng. Tiffany is also Li Feng's first woman. Sometimes women are like this, and they will be compared no matter what.
And from Taeyeon, they also know that besides the super high income now, it turns out that Li Feng actually has a company in the United States, and his assets are so amazing.
