Chapter 290 The Last Battle

"Yes, we came here early just to have a fantastic away game, we knew it was going to be difficult against Arsenal, as it was against Inter Milan in the past, but since we eliminated Inter Milan , so we also have the ability to beat Arsenal.

We have great chances, it's 11 vs 11, we haven't failed in the last three years in English teams, of course Henry and Shaw have the ability to make a difference, they're both great Player, Henry is experienced and possesses unparalleled talent.

The same is true for Xiao. Our whole team has watched his videos and introductions. He is more energetic, like a lion, and can change the atmosphere on the field. They will be our biggest problem.

But none of this is insurmountable, we have adapted to the different pitches in England, and Highbury is more suitable for us to play our game, attacking is our choice. "

When Villarreal's captain Riquelme and his team members came to London, they were interviewed by Sara for the first time, and specifically praised Henry and Xiao Ge, thinking that they could control the situation of the battle, but In the end, the confidence remains.

"Thierry, Highbury will bid farewell to the European competition the day after tomorrow. Can you talk about your feelings?" With the arrival of Villarreal, the atmosphere of the European competition became more and more intense.Reuters interviewed Henry immediately, and their eyes naturally fell on Highbury's last European game.

"Yes, the day after tomorrow Highbury will be out of European competitions, but I know that all the memories of the past will remain here forever, it will be used for apartments and public facilities.

But how wonderful it would be if you could come back here again and just sit there and think about some good memories from the past.

It's clear that Highbury's final European game will be thrilling.I think the atmosphere in the stadium was really good against Juventus and Real Madrid.

I hope this game is no exception.This is our last performance at Highbury and it will make all the difference and I wish me and my team-mates the best possible farewell Europa gift to this great stadium. "

As the King of Highbury and the last captain of the Highbury Stadium, Henry is full of fighting spirit for the upcoming game against Villarreal, and this is also the last game the Highbury King will play at Highbury. There is already a European game, so he also issued a must-win order.

Not only Henry, but almost every member of the Arsenal club was asked this question as the European war approached.

"Yes, it is coming to an end, Highbury is a place of glory, it is full of magic, for this game, we are full of hunger than any other Champions League game in the past, everything is as written According to the script, we will knock out Villarreal and enter France, and then come back here with the final glory."

When Van Persie was interviewed by the Daily Mail, he directly stated that he would bring the Big Ears Cup back here and add the final honor.

When Wenger accepted the interview on the official website, he first looked forward to the future, and finally issued an order to supervise the battle.

"In two days, Highbury's European history will end, which is sad, but in the future we will have more fans entering our stadium to see our boys play in European competitions. The performance in this is an amazing progress, and everything will move forward to a new era.

The Highbury game the day after tomorrow will be the perfect end to this great stadium, and we will do our best to bring fans a game worthy of its glory. "

"Xiao, Villarreal came to London two days earlier. They have already issued a challenge. Villarreal has created many miracles this season. They beat Manchester United and eliminated Inter Milan. Are you worried?"

After Sara finished interviewing Riquelme, Xiao Ge was also called out by this girl. Xiao Ge originally planned to ignore her, but was frightened by her saying "Then I will go to your house to find you".

"No, if it was in Spain, I would worry about the atmosphere at home, but here is Highbury, the meaning of the game tomorrow is that we don't allow us to make mistakes, and we also eliminated Real Madrid who are stronger than them here."

Xiao Ge had to use the time after training to deal with Sarah, the official said, staring fiercely at Sarah's charming face.

"Villarreal is also a team that is good at passing and attacking. Although Arsenal is a team that is good at possession of the ball in the Premier League, Arsenal has no advantage in this aspect, and in the past three years, They are nine games unbeaten against English teams, where do you think Arsenal will win."

Sarah proudly raised her eyes at Xiao Ge, and then asked her own doubts.

Sarah has seen a lot of La Liga teams' possession and passing games, and Villarreal is one of the best. They are younger than Real Madrid, and they work hard enough. The advantage of Arsenal's passing and cutting cooperation is fundamental. It couldn't be done right in front of them, so Sarah felt that Arsenal might be in a lot of trouble, and she was a little curious about where this man's confidence came from.

"Experience, the experience of our whole team, I believe that the boss can give the most suitable tactics, and the captain knows this kind of game better than them. What's more, I believe that this home game is the most special, and we did not lose. The reason." Xiao Ge quickly gave his answer.

"Riquelme admires you very much, how do you evaluate him?"

"An attacking midfielder whose talent can be compared with Zidane, but we have a better player, Cesc." Xiao Ge quickly commented, but Riquelme's personality is very problematic, so Xiao Ge again Added a sentence.

"Well, thanks for the interview, would you like a drink?" "Your treat?"..."

There were comments from all walks of life, and soon, the outside world focused on Bergkamp.

"Yes, this is my last season, the boss knows, I have talked with him, I have made up my mind, I will bid farewell to football career with this great stadium, so I hope to bring glory The glory of leaving here, I am very much looking forward to tomorrow's game, I do not want to leave any regrets.

As for my replacement, Robin will be the best candidate. As for Xiao, he has surpassed my peak period, and I can't achieve his achievements this season. template. "

Before the game, in an interview with Arsenal's official website, Bergkamp officially announced his retirement, which completely shocked everyone.

Dennis: This is my last season - Daily Mail

"Arsenal bid farewell to two fortunes: Dennis, Highbury" - "Mirror"

The Farewell Season – The Guardian

"The Last Glory of the 90s in the Netherlands Comes to an End"——Netherlands Telegraph

"The Leaving of Two Generations of Art Masters" --- "Marca"

"This is the second time he has left us, but this time it is so sad" - "Gazzetta dello Sport"

"Gorgeous curtain call" - "L'Equipe"

~~~

When Bergkamp announced the news of his retirement, the entire European football world was shocked, and the news was published on the front pages of various sports newspapers, and those fans in the 60s and 70s also realized their old age, because The two football masters they had pursued - Zidane and Bergkamp - both left after this season.

"He finally made this decision. Actually we talked about this issue in the past. I told him: You can play for a few more years. Even if you are not at Arsenal, you can go somewhere else. But he rejected my suggestion. , unfortunately, he is a great, infinitely creative genius."

When the head coach of the Netherlands, Van Basten, got the exact news, he said very regretfully in an interview with the Dutch media.

"Yes, I told him that he can still play for a few more years, but he thinks that his physical fitness and state cannot last for a season. He doesn't want to be a spectator in the last time, so he refused. It's a pity.

Dennis is a special man who has been at Arsenal as long as I have helped us achieve a series of glory. A player of talent cannot be replicated. He combines intelligence and technology. Wisdom allows him to create opportunities and technology allows him. He took those opportunities, and that's what makes him special.

Robin, maybe in the future, but he can't replace him yet, it's a pity we lost a great player, but this is football, you can't gallop on the pitch all your life.

Xiao, he is a player who developed another style. His technique, consciousness, body and vision have reached a very high level. He is more like Dennis at his peak, but his body and speed are better than Dennis. intrinsic. "

When Wenger talked about Bergkamp in an interview with the Daily Mail, he seemed very sorry and helpless. When talking about Van Persie, although Wenger valued him very much, at this stage he did not think he could fully Instead of Bergkamp, ​​for Xiao Ge, he didn't want to limit Xiao Ge's future achievements all at once.

"I've always thought of Dennis Bergkamp as my best strike partner, every striker's dream partner.

The most precious thing on the court is the team spirit, which is why I admire Dennis, and he has always done so.He's the best guy I've ever played with.

On the court, with some guys, you don't need words, you just look at them -- that's what happened to me and Dennis.

Whether you're on the field, on the bench or in front of the TV, it's amazing to me how one pass from Dennis can destroy a team, and he can do it from anywhere on the pitch.

It's a pity that I won't be able to cooperate with him again next season, but he will still be with us and help us, just like he pointed Xiao and Robin, their progress Dennis is of great help.

...

Xiao is Xiao, Dennis is Dennis, they are different, comparing them together is not fair to them, Xiao Cai has great personal achievements, in terms of style, he is very similar to a super striker like Ronnie, but His passing is also great, related to his position.

And Dennis represents glory, he is the best passer among the forwards, the commander of the forward line, the team awareness is better than all of us, even he is the Zidane of the forward line, the style is elegant and gorgeous, the only one who is the same Even Xiao would be a winner. "

When Henry talked about Bergkamp, ​​there was more admiration and respect, and when a reporter from Sky Sports asked about the comparison between Xiao Ge and Bergkamp, ​​Henry didn't think the two were the same at all.

"crack clap clap"

And when Xiao Ge came to Highbury, there was a dense crowd of reporters who were waiting to watch the game and find out the news.

"Xiao, what do you think of Dennis' retirement?"

"Xiao, may I ask if Arsenal will be affected in the next game because of him?"

"Xiao, do you agree with Henry's evaluation of Dennis?"

~~~~~

Xiao Ge was surrounded by these reporters, and he was not in a hurry to go in at this time. Although he knew that Bergkamp would leave this season, when he got the exact news, Xiao Ge still felt extremely lost and reluctant. It failed to change his mind. Perhaps Arsenal's success this season gave him a feeling of resignation.

Xiao Ge was very annoyed to accept the interview, but this time he took the initiative to speak.

"We all know that Dennis wants to retire, but we can't change him. It's a pity that he is the wealth of our team and has given us a lot of help. The whole team doesn't want him to leave so early.

But since he has made a decision, we respect him, and the evaluation of the captain is not excessive at all. Only those who have cooperated with him know his greatness. I am very sure of this. He is my mentor on the court. one.

And this game, and the next game, we will fight for him, let alone lose, maybe we can rekindle his ambition. "

After saying this, Xiao Ge quickly entered Highbury. At this time, the entire Highbury began to flood with people. Most of them were wearing the No. 10 orange jersey, which was exclusive to Bergkamp.

......

"Yoran, Xiao once again stated that he will not consider the World Cup until the end of the season, will you consider Xiao?"

When Eriksen showed up for Arsenal's Champions League game against Villarreal at home.Immediately blocked by reporters from The Times.

"Of course, we will not give up any opportunity to inspect the players. Everything depends on the needs of the World Cup. I can't give any definite news at this time. Xiao is a special one. Everything depends on him."

Eriksson nodded. At this time, he could neither force Xiao Ge to join the England team, nor could he immediately announce that he would not recruit Xiao Ge. He could only cooperate with Xiao Ge to delay as much as possible. He didn't hold much hope for entering the list. Rather than saying that he came to inspect Xiao Ge, it would be better to say that he came to see Bergkamp just to watch a Champions League match.

After Xiao Ge reiterated his thoughts in the exclusive interview, the refusal turmoil subsided for the time being. Although the calls for him to participate in the World Cup were still high, they were not so crazy and shook the whole of Europe. After all, during this time, various opinions The media and readers quickly became numb.

Moreover, there were a lot of news during this period, the most sensational of which was the news that Bergkamp was about to retire, so Xiao Ge could finally settle down for a few days.

Of course, many of them said that Xiao Ge was too airy and was simply a show, but it was quickly covered up by Bergkamp's news, and the arrival of the Champions League completely drew the attention of those people Moved here.

"Whirring whirring."

"Dennis!" "Dennis!" "Dennis!"

"Arsenal must win!"

"For Dennis, enter France!"

"Kill Villarreal!"

"Sink the submarine!"

"Day of Dennis!" "Day of Dennis!" "Day of Dennis!" "Day of Dennis!" "Day of Dennis!"

After Arsenal entered the semi-finals of the Champions League, Highbury was already hard to find. Next season, Arsenal will start a new stadium. Highbury officially bid farewell to European football, so it will be Highbury's last European game. , which is already overcrowded at this time.

The news that Bergkamp will retire after the season aroused the emotions of all Arsenal fans. Those who could come to Highbury tried their best to come. As the game time approached, the entire Highbury The world has turned orange, and Bergkamp's posters have completely covered Highbury.

They wanted to turn today into a day dedicated to Dennis, and waves of chanting blasted Highbury.

And those who don't have tickets will not go home to watch, all gathered in front of the big screen outside the stadium, waiting for the start of the game, the crowd was full of voices, turning the square outside Highbury into orange and purple ocean.

Welcome to the sanctuary of heroes - Highbury!fans!Tell them you defend the ambition!Tell our heroes the determination you stand for! "

"Hoo!" "Hoo!!" "Hoo!!!" "Hoo!!!" "Hoo!!!!"~~~~~

Following Senke's roar, Highbury roared like a beast, and all the fans uttered the deepest and deepest cries, waiting for their hero and the final catharsis.

"Dennis!" "Hoohoo" "I love you Dennis!" "Don't go, Dennis!" "My eternal ice prince!" "Papa papa"~~~~~

And when Bergkamp was warming up on the sidelines, the whole of Highbury was boiling, the sound was like thunder, and lasted for a long time, and when Bergkamp sent applause to the stands, the whole stadium responded.

"Did you see, buddy?" Henry stood beside Bergkamp and asked with a sigh.

"Yeah, this is Highbury, I deserve this honor, don't I." Bergkamp sighed and asked Henry.
