Chapter 588： Wenger's scars

"Pat, go back and check, are these media reporters the nursery that Gao Shen paid for?"

At the Kearney training base in north London, Wenger was very upset when he saw the live video of Gao Shen being interviewed. Did these guys do it on purpose?

Which pot is not open to mention which pot!

"It's not possible for a child to be nursed. These media are so virtuous, I'm afraid the world will not be in chaos." Assistant coach Pat Rice enlightened.

Wenger pouted and said no more, but he was still very unconvinced.

It's not that Gao Shen said at the press conference that he would demonstrate again and use the third method to defeat Senna. Because of this pre-match war of words, Wenger would not take it seriously at all. Ferguson's old thing is comparable to Gao Shen. This little fox is much more sophisticated.

Wenger and Ferguson have been dealing with Ferguson for so many years, is it still unclear?

The point is, Gao Shen said in the media that he concluded that Wenger was a little afraid of him and Manchester City and would adopt conservative tactics.

This was originally just a brief introduction, but the speaker was unintentional, but Wenger was intentional.

"By the way, Pat, is this kid twenty-nine years old?" Wenger asked suddenly.

Pat Rice was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "It happens to be tomorrow."

September 13th.

"Then, do you want me to prepare a cake for him to celebrate his birthday?" Wenger asked.

Pat Rice couldn't help laughing, and wanted to ask, are you always so kind?

Obviously you want to disrupt the situation, you just say it directly, why do you say that?

"If you can bring a piece of cake, I guess he will be very happy," Pat Rice said.

Wenger nodded, "It says 4:0!"

Pat Rice was silent.

He found that, in fact, Wenger still clearly remembered the Champions League quarter-finals that Naples played against Arsenal last season.

Wenger looks very gentle and kind on the surface, but he is actually very strong in his bones.

If he was really kind, it would be impossible to lead Arsenal to where they are today.

In the professional league, only the strong and the ruthless can survive.

Wenger has won too many championships in his life, but not the Champions League.

Even at Arsenal's peak, when he finished a season unbeaten, Wenger failed to get his hands on the Champions League.

This is his most painful scar.

And his most promising season was in 2006. As a result, in the case of basically winning, he was picked by Gao Shen, who was born out of nowhere. To a certain extent, Gao Shen stepped on Wenger's shoulders.

This makes Wenger feel uncomfortable if he doesn't feel uncomfortable.

For Gao Shen, whether it is Ferguson, Wenger, Mourinho, Benitez, Ancelotti and others, personal friendships are personal ones, but they really hate it.

Because he is so evil!

Two Champions Leagues in three years, is there anything more outrageous than this?

However, Wenger has coached for most of his life, and he has not won a Champions League. It is strange that he is in a good mood when he sees the depth.

"This kid hasn't learned much about other skills, but he has learned the aggressive tactics, psychological warfare, and messy tactics of that bad old man. Do you really think I'll be fooled?" Wenger snorted twice.

"The method is too clumsy and too immature!"

This is a trick that the discerning eye can see through at once, and of course Wenger can.

"It's rare that the game coincides with his birthday. We have to prepare well and give him a generous gift to celebrate!"

…

Game day morning.

When Gao Shen woke up, he found that he had received many missed text messages, all of them congratulating him on a happy birthday.

It's funny to say, this is his third year in charge, but it's the first time he has a birthday on a match day.

In the past, he didn't really pay much attention to birthdays, and he basically forgot about it, but every birthday, when he woke up in the morning, his mother would prepare a breakfast for him.

According to the custom of my hometown, noodles should be eaten on birthday morning, and there must be two eggs, one duck egg and one egg, which means long life.

He never believed in this, but he still felt very warm every time.

Thinking of this, he made a phone call to his mother in China.

Sure enough, as soon as the mother on the other side answered the phone, she immediately asked him, "Have you eaten birthday noodles in the morning?"

Gao Shen wanted to say: Mom, why don't you fly over and cook for me?

Most recently, his parents were in Chile.

No way, since the high-level bundling of Ferguson, wine is really selling well in China, it has almost sold like crazy, it is completely in short supply, and the more in short supply, the hotter the market.

Fortunately, in this regard, their fathers, Gao Jianguo and Su Zhijun, were very rational and did not smash their own brand names. Gao Jianguo went to Chile to further check the situation.

There is no way for Gao Shen. Originally, he wanted to start a business. Who would have thought that the two families would be very busy.

But to be honest, busy is very busy, tired and very tired, but there is a rush, there is hope, and the whole person is full of energy.

This is actually the reason why Gao Shen supports Su Qing to continue working.

As long as you do what you love, no matter how busy you are, you will be happy.

After hanging up the phone with his parents, when Gao Shen went downstairs, he was about to call Su Qing too, but he didn't expect a courier to come to the door.

It turned out to be a Braun shaver in a high-end gift box.

As soon as Gao Shen saw the gift, he guessed who gave it.

A few days ago, he just complained to Su Qing that there seemed to be something wrong with his razor. It is estimated that this girl is also thinking hard about what birthday present to give. Now it is just right, and she gave a razor directly.

Gao Shen called, and Su Qing asked him in the first sentence, did he receive a gift?

In fact, it was hard enough for her.

In the current situation of Gao Shen, there is nothing missing, everything is available.

Clothes, he is either a sports suit or a suit all the year round, all of which are sponsors.

Leather shoes and sneakers are also free from sponsors.

There are also watches, ties, and so on. Anything that Gao Shen can use is basically sponsored, and a lot of things are delivered to the door every once in a while.

Like a Chitton suit.

Every quarter, they will arrange for someone to come to Gao Shen's door. After getting his latest body data, they will customize a suit for him, and then deliver it to his door.

In this case, it is really not an easy task to give him a birthday present that he does not have but needs.

"Sure enough, you still know me and know how to send electricity." Gao Shen said with a smile.

He has used a manual shaver, but he has no doubts about it, because he used it before, but it left a **** face, and he never dared to touch it. He has always used an electric one.

"You can use it together." Su Qing was also happy.

…

Almost the whole day, Gao Shen was spent under the congratulations of others.

Even in the pre-match preparation meeting in Carrington in the morning, the players congratulated him on a happy birthday, and the club specially ordered a big cake, saying that if it was a birthday celebration for Gao Shen.

But Gao Shen asked to put the celebration time in the locker room after the game.

"Wait tonight, after we beat Arsenal, and then go to the locker room to open the cake!" Gao Shen said confidently.

Everyone also felt the high ambition and fighting spirit, and all responded loudly.

Before the pre-match preparation meeting, Gao Shen had chatted with the 18 players on the roster one by one. They all knew who would start tonight and who would be a substitute.

Among them, according to the past practice of Gaoshen, all international players in South America will be frozen.

This time is no exception.

Goalkeeper: Neuer.

Defence: Bridge, Cahill, Kompany and Mika Richards.

Midfield: Xavi Martinez behind, David Silva and Rakitic ahead.

Forwards: Hazard, Giroud and Sturridge.

Felipe, Zabaleta, Suarez, Robinho and others all traveled long distances to return to the King of Qin, and did not come back until almost noon the day before the game. Gao Shen was not willing to take risks, so they were all frozen. stand up.

But Robben failed to make it into the starting lineup, which surprised everyone.

The Dutchman himself didn't react, everything was business as usual, so naturally no one else would say much.

Even if there is, that is to admire Gao Shen's control of the locker room, which can make Robben obedient, and the substitutes can accept it.

"It's going to be a tough game against Arsenal and I hope you all are mentally prepared."

Gao Shen said solemnly.

"While we all say the Gunners are a team that doesn't have a lot of ambition, that was before, and now, their top-four status has been shaken and Wenger and his Arsenal will fight any football for it. The team is dying."

The Gunners have a lot of experience in defending the fourth, so they clearly know which games to fight and which games can be relaxed.

And there is no doubt that they dare not relax in the away game against Manchester City.

"When defending, be careful with two people."

Gao Shen reminded his players.

"Adebayor and Robin van Persie, especially Robin van Persie, the strength of this center is quite good, he must not be slack in the slightest, and Cesc Fabregas, his passing is very important."

Some people say that Cesc Fabregas at Arsenal is the best Cesc Fabregas.

This is actually not wrong.

Because in the Gunners, Cesc Fabregas really showed amazing strength and potential.

The current Van Persie is actually nothing, even his name in Arsenal is not a brother, maybe not as good as Adebayor.

On the one hand, it is because he is often injured and his performance is intermittent. On the other hand, Adebayor is more in line with the aesthetic requirements of Premier League fans for a center. Van Persie is more conscious and technical.

But Gao Shen knows better than anyone that although Van Persie has many injuries, his strength is definitely not weak. He belongs to the type that gives a little sunshine, and he is about to usher in the peak of his career at the age of 26.

How strong Van Persie was at his peak, the depths that came through in 2021 are naturally clear.

In contrast, Gao Shen let Giroud start, and it was clear that he wanted to consume the opponent's back line, especially the two central defenders. Gao Shen let Giroud play his height and physical advantages.

As for Hazard and Sturridge, the former is responsible for getting the ball, while the latter focuses on hitting Clichy.

The French full-back is strong in attack and weak in defense, and it has not been a day or two that there have been problems with defense.

Gao Shen has always felt that he will be a breakthrough in Arsenal's defense.
