Chapter 888

This is the fifth year that szczynny has come to London.

He can still remember clearly that when he was 15 years old, it was snowing in the winter. He was still playing in the youth team of Legia in Warsaw, Poland. Arsenal scouts found him and brought him to London during the winter break in 2006.

At that time, the main goalkeeper of the first team of Legia Warsaw was his current Arsenal team mate and competitor, Fabianski. At that time, there was a well-known talented striker in the team, Robert levandovsky.

At the age of 15, he left his motherland and wandered in England alone. Shiqinsny first received training in the Arsenal youth training camp. At the age of 19, he was loaned to Brentford in the third division of England. After playing as the main force for a season, his strength was also recognized by Arsenal. So this summer, he was left in the team and promoted to the first team.

At present, the two goalkeepers of Arsenal are Almunia and Fabianski. The former's performance at Arsenal in recent years is not stable, and so is the latter. Therefore, the whole arsenal place high hopes on shiqinsny. Arsene Wenger even said publicly in an interview with the media, "I really believe that he will become the number one goalkeeper of Arsenal one day."

This undoubtedly gave szczynny strong self-confidence, as well as high morale.

In addition to the coaching staff, luck is obviously on the side of szczesny.

With the start of the season, Spanish veteran Manuel Almunia and Fabianski were injured one after another. This kind of divine opportunity made the third goalkeeper shiqinsny become the only goalkeeper in the Arsenal team after December, which provoked the team.

And shiqinsny did not let the coaching staff and teammates down. In the game after January, he showed strength one after another, but he kept guard of Arsenal's goal, which is quite good for the Gunners who have been tortured by goalkeepers.

But shiqinsny is not satisfied. He thinks he can do better. He hopes to seize the chance and become the main goalkeeper of Arsenal, so he is eager to perform in the Carling Cup final.

Because this time against Manchester City.

The head coach of Manchester City is Gao Han, who once took his good friend levandovsky away from Poland and trained him to become a famous European striker, which is the envy and admiration of szczesny.

After the start of this game, shiqinsny was very active. He did not confine his range of activities to the small restricted area, but made frequent and decisive attacks. His excited state was also stimulating his body and brain nerves, and even he felt that his every reaction was faster than usual.

Shiqinsny's performance also made him win the praise and affirmation of Arsenal fans, which undoubtedly made him more confident.

In the 26th minute of the match, Arsenal made a counter attack and scored into the forbidden area of Manchester City, but the ball was intercepted successfully. Harvey Martinez transferred the long ball to the front court.

Julu and koscielny were both behind and occupied the advantageous position in time. However, Manchester City striker sturrich refused to give up and chased the ball, which made Julu nervous.

When everyone thought that Zhulu had already occupied the most advantageous position and was sure to be able to head the ball directly back to midfield, he didn't expect that he didn't touch the ball after jumping high.

At that moment, all the people lost their voices and exclaimed, even Zhu Lu himself was wide eyed and couldn't believe that he was missing the top.

Behind shiqinsi Ni and the side of koscielny two people are surprised, coincidentally choose the first time toward the ball in the past, want to make up for the mistakes of teammates at the critical moment.

"I'll do it!"

"I'll do it!"

Two people with one voice to shout, but they have to ignore the other, toward the ball to catch up.

They all saw sturrich, the England striker is so fast that if he catches up with the ball, they are all finished.

The two almost caught up with the ball at the same time. Koscielny swung his foot and wanted to get the ball out directly. Shiqinsny was so surprised that he was afraid of being hurt by koscielny and quickly stopped the action of rushing to the ball. Koscielny was also surprised that he was afraid of hurting the goalkeeper and subconsciously stopped his foot.

However, Sturridge, who was chasing after him all the way from behind, caught up with the ball faster than they did, and rose up against the rebound, pushing the ball gently.

So the ball quickly, along a straight line, into the unguarded Arsenal goal.

Shiqinsny and koscielny knelt down and sat down, looking at each other in disbelief, paralyzed.

They couldn't believe that they should have made such a mistake, and both of them were deeply immersed in remorse.

And behind them, Sturridge, who kept on chasing all the way, turned and rushed out of the stadium, frantically celebrating the sudden goal. He raised his right hand high, excitedly shouting to the fans in the stands. All the Manchester City players rushed up one after another and surrounded him in the middle.

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL！！！！”

"My God, Arsenal's defence made a very strange but fatal mistake in the 26th minute

"Zhulu's leakage of the top surprised his two teammates, and then there was a conflict when making a judgment. As a result, both sides failed to get the ball out of the way at the first time, resulting in sturrich picking up a big bargain."

"It was a very bad mistake indeed. Both szczynny and koscielny looked very depressed."

"They really have reason to be upset because this goal will change the situation completely

"It's difficult for us to determine who is more responsible for this mistake, but it's undeniable that Arsenal's back line failed seriously in this game. Goalkeeper shiqinsny knocked down sturrich soon after the opening. It was an undoubted penalty, but he escaped because of the referee's misjudgment."

"But this time, it's absolutely the contradiction between him and his teammates. They didn't adjust their tacit understanding in time. At the same time, they rushed to the ball. As a result, they didn't get out in time. This is a very bad phenomenon."

"As we said in the comments just now, the problem of Arsenal is that there are many young players in the team. Goalkeeper shiqinsny has just been in the top position recently. Koscielny, Zhulu and Squillaci have not been able to cultivate a tacit understanding. Therefore, Arsenal's defensive worries have not been effectively solved."

"Now, this mistake has exposed the problem again. It depends on how manager Arsene Wenger solves it."

…………

…………

Arsene Wenger seems to have known for a long time that the live TV footage will be on him, so he looks as usual, still with a bitter expression, as if to say, what can I do?

Zhulu missed the top, which disrupted the plans of all the defensive players. It can be seen that he was really nervous at that time. He was chased by Sturridge all the way. He wanted to get rid of the ball as soon as possible, but the more so, the more prone he was to misjudge.

Zhulu's mistake led to the cooperation between szczesny and koscielny's mistake, and then let the persistent sturrich pick up a big advantage. What else can Arsene Wenger say?

If you look at the expressions of the three players on the pitch, they are either confused or blue with regret. Arsene has no way to say anything at this time, so he had better keep silent.

"The time has come for our defence to change." Assistant coach Pat rice shook his head and sighed.

Why didn't Arsene Wenger know that?

In the past few years, Arsenal's back line has never been better, and they can still keep on going in the league. However, in the cup, this problem is particularly obvious, which has become the biggest deadlock for Arsenal's six-year no crown.

But is that what Arsene is reluctant to do?

No, it's because he has no money.

In the past few years, excellent centre backs are worth hundreds of times, such as Manchester United's introduction of Pepe, Real Madrid's introduction of Bruno Alves, worth 30 million or 40 million. Not long ago, Chelsea wanted to introduce David Lewis from Portugal, but Benfica refused to sell for 30 million euros. In addition, Scolari stayed for a long time, so Abramovich called to stop the deal.

There is a great shortage of good centre backs. It's not easy to come up with one, which may create a sky high price at any time. For Arsenal, there is no choice at all. At least the Gunners can't afford to compete.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea, Juve... Who is not short of centre back?

"This is not the time to talk about it." Said Arsene with a long sigh.

"It's hard to accept the mistake this time, but look at them. If you put pressure on them at this time, they will collapse, so we should try to help them. After all, mistakes are inevitable for defenders."

When Arsene said this, his heart was not very good.

The goal basically means that he is a little far away from the champion, or even no hope.

"In addition to defense, we also have a serious problem in this game, which is that Rosicky is too depressed on the left side, just like the missing invisible man, which is obviously unsatisfactory."

Pat rice nodded after listening, "Mascherano's defense on this side is really sharp, but Rosicky is too low, do you want to change him?"

Arsene is also a headache. If we replace Rosicky, who can he replace?

Without Fabregas, Wilshere alone can't pick up the midfield, so he needs Rosicky, but obviously, the Czech veteran has not been able to show satisfactory level, which forces Nasri to withdraw frequently.

The French midfield is still the most eye-catching player in the Arsenal team in this game. His personal ability is superior, which will undoubtedly make him more dominant in the next contract renewal negotiations, further forcing Arsene Wenger into a dilemma.

Then there are Fabregas, Barcelona and Real Madrid. Can they stay this summer?

Van Persie is also a big hidden danger, many years of no crown let him some disappointment to the team, after the comeback showed a burst of state, this of course let Arsene Wenger feel happy, but also let him feel worried.

Is the Dutch centre forward willing to stay at Arsenal?

All sorts of ideas poured into his head, which made Arsene's whole head confused and confused.

Sometimes he even thought, why should he be so angry because of his current position?

But on second thought, he was not reconciled.

It's like Ferguson, who has to win the championship again to retire.

Why not him?
