Chapter 27 Three Rounds of Opponents

De Ligt's fierce tackle broke Burnley's attack and aroused the enthusiasm of the fans.

Today's Arsenal fans are not only satisfied with winning, they also want to win beautifully.

And De Ligt's tackle is enough to be seen, and has a talent bonus that can be seen with the naked eye.

This kind of steal has frustrated Burnley's morale again. At least from the current situation, they still have no chance to score.

On the contrary, Arsenal continues to play steadily.

Luka has played very easily recently, mainly because Eriksson has helped him share a lot of work.

However, as long as there is a chance, he will also move forward.

But now in this leading situation, Luka still stands in the backcourt to organize and dispatch most of the time.

Burnley goalkeeper kicked the ball with a big foot, but the landing point was not good. He failed to find his own striker, but was closer to Luka.

And Lekai also ran to the landing point, easily unloaded the ball with the arch of his foot, and immediately connected a side pull to avoid the pressure from the back, and then passed the ball.

From the handling of this ball, Lekai's work and ability are very clear.

Control the ball, organize and take the ball out of the dangerous area.

With the support of Lekai, Eriksson only needs to retreat to receive the ball and then launch the attack again.

Time passed little by little, and Burnley's attack still did not work.

Soon, the time came to 90 minutes, and finally under the whistle of the referee, the second round of the 2019/2020 Premier League ended.

Arsenal beat Burnley 2:0 at home and won the second game.

In this game, Eriksson, Giroud and De Ligt became the best players.

Giroud became a full-score player in this game with the addition of three goals in two games.

Eriksen and De Ligt have a transfer filter. After all, for such players who have just transferred to join the team, both the media and the fans are more curious and concerned.

The performance of these two people did not disappoint those expecting eyes, and they both contributed a wonderful game.

In the post-match interview, Mourinho praised Eriksen in response to the reporter's questions.

"This is a player with very clear ideas. As you can see, he has brought great offensive sustainability to Arsenal, and has been assigned a lot of offensive organization work in the frontcourt, which has greatly reduced Kai's workload. Eriksen is already an important part of Arsenal!"

As for De Ligt, his evaluation is

"De Ligt is still very young. I will give him a lot of opportunities to let him grow, but during this period of time, he also needs to grow up again. I look forward to the day when he starts."

Finally, in response to the question about Kai, Mourinho commented:

"Kai is the undoubted core of Arsenal. Whether it is tactical or spiritual, he is our most critical part!"

"Arsenal without Kai is unimaginable, but it is because of Kai that Arsenal can be so strong."

"Eriksen will not snatch Kai's position and tactical weight. Kai is still our absolute core. Eriksen is to relieve Kai, not replace him!"

After completing the overall interview, Mourinho left the venue.

The Arsenal players also took the bus back to the training base and drove their cars back to their homes again.

During this period, Arsenal's morale is still very high.

The two championships before the season and the two consecutive victories at the beginning of the season, the overall game experience and state are very good.

Based on this state, they also have the confidence to continue the good season.

After defeating Burnley, Arsenal is about to usher in the third round of the game.

The opponent in the third round ushered in a strong enemy.

Red Army Liverpool!

Klopp's Liverpool has always been a strong team in the Premier League.

Although they were kicked by Arsenal last season, the same is true for other teams.

Liverpool's state has also warmed up this season, and they have experienced two consecutive victories, so their morale and state are very good.

The most important thing is that when Liverpool plays Arsenal, these guys always feel like they are getting excited.

No matter how bad their previous state was, when facing Arsenal, they can immediately adjust and even perform beyond their normal performance.

In the Champions League final of the 2017/2018 season, Arsenal lost to such a Liverpool.

Although they completed revenge in the Champions League semi-finals last season, they still cannot be taken lightly.

The next day, Lekai arrived at the training ground early again.

The entire training ground was empty.

European clubs do not train every day. Like normal people, they also have rest days.

They will set a weekly training volume based on the players' condition.

If the players are physically exhausted, the club will reduce the training to allow the players to recover more.

At the beginning of the season, the training is usually more concentrated.

Recently, Arsenal's training is four days a week, and the remaining two days are independent training, but the training report must be submitted to the coaching staff, and the last day is rest.

And today is a rest day.

But even on a rest day, Lekai ran to the training ground to train.

He knew very well that in order to maintain his condition, he had to keep in touch with football so that he could maintain enough concentration.

Of course, excessive training is not good, but for now, he can still tolerate it.

As soon as Lucky scattered the balls on the court, a voice suddenly came from his ears.

"Hey! Can I join?"

Lucky turned his head and looked over. He saw Buffon wearing the goalkeeper's jersey and standing in front of the isolation fence.

Lucky smiled and shrugged; "I don't mind someone guarding the door!"

"I am coming!"

Buffon ran in with brisk steps.

What followed was a barrage of shots.

Each of Lucky's shots was powerful and the angle was very tricky, making it difficult for Buffon to catch it.

Of course, Lucky does not shoot in place, but adopts a sports shooting method to be more relevant to the game situation.

But even in the continuous changes of direction, Lucai's shot was still extremely accurate.

It wasn't until it reached more than 40 feet that the accuracy began to slowly decline.

"rest for a bit!"

Lucky waved his hand. He felt comfortable with the practice, but Buffon rubbed his wrist and shook his head: "Your shot falls in a large arc, which makes it difficult to save. And many times, you use a close-up approach." A ground shot is even more difficult to save.”

Lucky turned around and said: "At the beginning, my shooting was not very good. I just practiced it."

Buffon said: "Wenger is good at training young players. You are lucky to meet him."

Lucky nodded and said, "I think so too."

Wenger spared no effort in training young players. After Lucky arrived at Arsenal that year, he was placed in the starting position after only a short season.

And he soon wore the captain's armband. All this was given to him by Wenger, and he has not forgotten this.

Lucky suddenly turned to look at Buffon: "Your wrist"

Buffon was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "It's ready."

Lucai nodded and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Actually, you can compete. Judging from the training matches, your performance can fully meet our requirements."

Buffon was silent for a moment and sighed; "If I were ten years younger, I would compete, but now I am indeed old."

"This is a big premise. At least my reaction is not as fast as Martinez's, just like in that Champions League final, when I faced your shot, I failed to react and make a save."

"I want the Champions League. It doesn't matter if I'm a substitute. Just let me play a few games. I know my status and I don't want to experience this kind of thing again."

Listening to Buffon's words, Lucai said: "Okay then, just do whatever you want."

Lucky didn't know what Buffon was thinking, but since the other party had this idea, he would not interfere.

And Martinez's performance is indeed very good, there is no need to replace him.

"The next game is against Liverpool, it's a tough match!"

Buffon said.

Lucky nodded: "Liverpool is difficult to play, especially their wings."

"That player named Chen? Your national team teammate?" Obviously Buffon knew Chen Man.

And when he thought of Chen Man, Le Kai's head got big.

This guy's speed is really Lucky's most annoying ability.
