Chapter 746 Rotation
Hummels eats very little, mainly eating a small amount of meat and supplementing vitamins with vegetables.
Lucky needs a lot of energy, so he eats a lot.
Hummels looked out of the window after eating, with a smile on his face, and said softly: “The weather is so nice!”
Lucky put a piece of beef into his mouth and said with a smile; “You should be in a good mood!”
“all good!”
Hummels shrugged with a smile.
Le Kai said: “Happy things should be shared, so it’s double!”
Hummels said: “I just feel that joining Arsenal is the right choice.”
“Why do you say that?”
Lucky asked.
Hummels said: “Actually, when I joined Arsenal, I took certain risks.”
“My appeal is the Champions League. I want to join a team that can join the Champions League. Bayern Munich is undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt of the Bundesliga. But as a Dortmund-born player, there are obviously better choices!”
“When Arsenal approached me, I was very hesitant!”
“You just lost your qualification for the Champions League and can only play in the Europa League this season. This has a lot of contradictions and conflicts with my demands.”
“But Mourinho flew over in person and had a detailed talk with me. He showed me his plan and the concept of the defense line, which is a very good idea.”
Lucky nodded and said: “Mourinho is indeed an excellent head coach.”
Hummels nodded and said: “After coming to Arsenal, I really felt the upward impact here, or in other words, the pressure here is a lot, far more than Dortmund’s, but I like this kind of feeling. The pressure because he would tell me that it’s all about the championship here.”
“This season is almost over, I can feel that we are getting better and better, the team’s running-in has become better, I have played a lot easier, and the defensive pressure is not so great!”
Hummels looked at Le Kai and said: “I feel that we are really likely to win the Champions League again.”
Lucky shrugged: “I have always believed so.”
Hearing the words, Hummels smiled and said; “Europa League this season is also good, although it is not making history.”
Lucky waved his hand and interrupted; “It’s making history. Arsenal doesn’t have the Europa League trophy yet. Their European Cup Winners’ Cup has nothing to do with the Europa League!”
“That would be even better!”
Lucy also finished his meal at this time, patted his stomach and said; “Digest for an hour, and then go to the ball!”
Hummels nodded; “I also need to cooperate with Jimenez in training.”
Not long after, the Arsenal players walked into the restaurant one after another and began to have breakfast.
Some people were walking on the road, still yawning, obviously still a little sleepy.
Physical fatigue cannot be resolved overnight.
Lucky sees all of this, but he has no choice. At the end of the season, he can only rely on willpower to persevere. Apart from this, there is no better way.
Before training, Mourinho organized a massage to relax.
Players need to go to the team doctor’s room one after another to receive massage from the team doctor to relax.
Massage can promote muscle recovery.
After a whole day, most of the players fell asleep while they were being massaged.
The team doctor fed these back to the head coach.
Mourinho looked at the report in his hand and couldn’t help but sighed a long time.
“Who will play next?”
“Crystal Palace!”
Mourinho’s eyes twitched.
“A relegated team again!”
Last time he was kicked and injured by the relegated team, Mourinho is almost in a psychological shadow. If the opponent comes up with foul tactics again and the referee does not act, Arsenal’s situation will become more difficult.
Moreover, Mourinho did not dare to rotate on a large scale. Currently, Arsenal has 63 points in the league, just in the Champions League qualification circle.
They do not tolerate any mistakes.
A loss in a game can cost a season of hard work.
Although the Europa League champion has the qualification to directly participate in the UEFA Champions League group stage, who can guarantee that they will win the championship?
Mourinho has this heart, but he also needs to take it easy.
Rotation must be rotated.
Can’t continue playing like this.
Once all the main players fall into the fatigue period, there is no need to play the next game.
This has just entered the main event, they can’t lose the chain at this time.
In the 32nd round of the Premier League, Arsenal challenged Crystal Palace away.
The lineup of both sides is as follows:
Crystal Palace (4-2-3-1):
Goalkeeper: Hennessy.
Defenders: Ward, Martin Kelly, Sakho, Schlupp.
Midfielders: Zaha, Milivojevic, Pangqiong, Cabaye, Townsend.
Forward: Benteke.
Arsenal (4-4-2):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Robertson.
Midfielders: Kanter, Ramsey, Wilshere, Lucky.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Mane.
In this game, Arsenal will rotate the two main central defenders and the starting center forward.
Mustafi and Koscielny got another chance to start.
Under pressure, the two central defenders did not give up the idea of competition, but trained harder. Although they are still not as stable as Hummels and Jimenez, they will also have the protection of the midfield line. Too big a problem.
Lukaku failed to get the start, which made the Belgian star very dissatisfied. After all, he is chasing the critical moment of the Golden Boot.
But Mourinho said that “important weapons should be placed in important games.” This explanation immediately made Lukaku feel elated and agreed with the substitute.
After all, his tonnage and weight are low, and he is extremely tired after persisting until now.
It’s okay to take a break.
The midfielder is still the starting lineup, and Mourinho obviously wants to rely on the strength of the midfielder to win the game.
Once the game started, the confrontation between the two sides was extremely fierce.
There is no doubt that Crystal Palace’s style of play is extremely targeted, frequently shoveling, intercepting and pressing.
This also increased the number of yellow cards in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the referee’s penalty scale is extremely strict. Under the deterrent force of yellow cards, Crystal Palace dare not continue to take cards.
In the first 15 minutes of the game, they received four yellow cards, with an average of one yellow card in more than three minutes.
Arsenal did not commit any offense because of the opponent’s foul tactics.
Relying on the ability to control the midfield line, they began to gradually control the rhythm.
Crystal Palace still wants to attack and win.
But Arsenal took advantage of this to lure the opponent’s players into their own half, stretching the opponent’s front line and completing the steal.
When Arsenal took control of the ball, they immediately launched a counterattack.
The two offensive points of Aubameyang and Mane have become Arsenal’s offensive terminators.
The two were followed by a Wilshere to instigate support, while Lucky played more of the role of organization and command.
In 30 minutes, Arsenal relied on a counterattack opportunity to get a good positioning kick in the frontcourt.
Relying on set-piece tactics, Wilshere didn’t kick the ball high, but made a horizontal pass. Lucky ran out of the penalty area, turned around and pretended to shoot. After deceiving the opponent’s defender, he kicked the ball to the back point.
Mane patted his horse to keep up, and scored with a kick.
Arsenal took the lead.
And this goal also slightly dissipated the breath that Crystal Palace had been holding.
Facing this kind of relegated team, you only need to disrupt their rhythm and morale, but you can’t over-stimulate them.
Otherwise, the last injury was the best result.
Arsenal had a lesson, so they slowed down the rhythm a lot after scoring a goal, in order to kill the morale of the opponent and delay time.
Sure enough, after the Crystal Palace lost the ball, their morale fell.
In addition, Crystal Palace does not have such a loud voice as Lucky, who is always calling out to his teammates for encouragement and reminders.
This also causes them to kick more and more depressed.
After the time entered the second half, Lucky relied on a long pass to hit the defense behind him, helping Aubameyang form a single-handed situation.
Facing the opponent’s goalkeeper, Aubameyang easily pushed and scored, expanding the score again.
In 70 minutes, Mourinho decisively made another substitution.
It was directly transformed into an all-defensive formation, and Lucky and Aubameyang went off.
In 89 minutes, Mane was also replaced.
And Arsenal sealed the victory with two goals from Mane and Aubameyang.
