Football: Don’t talk about feelings, I’m just an AI

Chapter 92 The war is about to break out (transitional text...)

After the game between Arsenal and Tottenham, Balotelli, who scored a hat trick, was not sought after, De Bruyne, who assisted the hat trick, was not sought after, and Xia Qi, who performed well on both offense and defense, was not sought after.

The man who was surrounded by reporters and kept sending rainbow farts was Arsenal's head coach - Arsene Wenger.

Wenger did not expect that one of his changes would arouse heated discussion in the British and European media.

The 343 formation is actually a very common formation.

But Wenger made improvements and used three midfielders, which is one of the hot topics.

Football lineups usually have a single defensive midfielder or a double defensive midfielder. Arsenal is unique in the three-back midfielder style of play.

What interests the media the most is Arsenal's "run and gun tactics."

Strikers, one of them really dares to run,

Midfielders, if one really dares to pass the ball,

Just such "Inzaghi"-style goals make the coach shine brighter than the players.

Offense is the best way to capture the hearts of fans!

I thought Arsenal played three defensive midfielders for defense, but it turned out to be a scoring spree!

Arsenal fans went crazy, shouting Wenger's name hysterically.

The British media went berserk;

European football was shocked,

2013 was a year of changes in football tactics, and also a year of blowout in football tactics.

Guardiola left his hometown to sign with Bayern Munich after reflecting on and improving Barcelona's TiKi-TaKa.

The "defensive forward" concept pioneered by Klopp has made the Hornets a new force that cannot be ignored in Europe.

The unruly Mourinho tried to incorporate offensive elements into Real Madrid's impregnable defensive system.

The gangster Simeone is experimenting with the "mad dog" tactics in the Sheet Army.

Allegri, Conte, and Inzaghi emphasized defense while increasing offensive investment, so the ancient 352 lineup put old wine in new bottles - a new look...

Now, Wenger's run-and-gun tactics are added.

Compared with other tactics, Wenger's run and gun and Guardiola's new TiKi-TaKa are the most popular for a simple reason: they look good!

Arsenal fans feel that their eyes and ears are not enough. Before they can recover from the "run and gun tactics" controversy, news about Bayern is overwhelming again.

Bayern flew to London three days in advance, rejected Chelsea's invitation, and settled in the Tottenham training center.

The small town of Enfield was also surrounded by the media.

But Bayern head coach Heynckes issued a lockdown order!

This sense of urgency for the upcoming war has instead heightened the expectations of the media and fans.

The number of clicks on gossip about Bayern often easily exceeds 30,000 to 40,000.

A piece of news leaked by an insider at the Tottenham training center - "Bayern massacred Tottenham 8:0" became a hot search topic.

Someone with good intentions came to Xia Qi and asked him what he thought.

Xia Qi replied calmly: "Tottenham are so pitiful!"

Seeing Xia Qi walking into the base without looking back, the busybody yelled at Xia Qi's back without giving up: "Bayern has scored 8 goals and their attack power is stronger than yours. Aren't you worried?" "

Xia Qi waved his hand back, his voice pretending to be old:

"Boys, that's just Tottenham."

The fans gathered at the entrance of Colney's training ground burst into laughter.

The person Xia Qi imitated was Ferguson. In the 01-02 season, Manchester United met Tottenham, the weakest team in the Big 6.

But this little guy got off to a fierce start and scored three goals for Manchester United in the first half.

Trailing 0:3, Ferguson returned to the locker room and saw the players' eyes were blank and the atmosphere was gloomy.

He pretended to be relaxed and said: "Kids, it's just Tottenham."

When the Manchester United players heard this, they thought, yes, it's just Tottenham. What are they afraid of?

In the second half, he kicked with his head and kicked, bang bang, and scored five goals in succession. The game was reversed 5:3.

From then on, Bailu Lane has the reputation of Sansan Lane.

Xia Qi's antics made the worried Arsenal fans relax a lot.

They asked: "We will definitely beat Bayern, right?"

"Relax! In London, I, Arsenal, are the king!"

That night, the "London Evening News" ran the headline "Relax! Arsenal is the King of London", looking ahead to tomorrow's Champions League quarter-finals.

And guess the starting lineups of both teams.

Bayern's lineup is not difficult to guess, 4231 is for sure.

The key to the question is, after Ribery returns, where will Muller's position be?

Arsenal has a high probability of 343. Isn't Wenger's tactical change just for tomorrow night?

When Xia Qi returned to the boarding house, Alice asked: "Xia Qi, how will you play tomorrow?"

"325!"

"Ah! Why is it 523! Isn't 343 very strong?"

Xia Qi asked Alice to get closer, then held her ears and shouted: "It's 325, a variation of 343."

Today, Guardiola, Klopp, Conte, Inzaghi...a new generation of offensive coaches have just entered the workplace.

Football lineups are mainly foot-heavy in terms of numbers, such as 442, 541, 4321... Guardiola, Klopp... After successfully taking over, 424, 325 became popular...

In fact, these two lineups existed in the 1930s and 1940s, but have been redefined by the new generation of coaches.

Alice rubbed her ears and asked in confusion: "Five forwards? Who will serve you guys?"

"You need to take care of it! Fake fans."

Jack patted Xia Qi on the shoulder: "Isn't it going to be very hard for you tomorrow? You have to run almost 15 kilometers, right?"

Xia Qi replied proudly: "About 18 kilometers," and turned to Alice and said: "Look at your father, this is a real football fan, they are both gun fans. Why are there such big differences between people..."

"Go away, I want you to take care of..."

"Xia, it's my birthday tomorrow, can you score a goal for me?"

"100 yuan."

"What?"

"Score one goal, one hundred pounds, no matter how young or old you are, the price will be the same."

"I'm going to Zhuxie to sue you..."

Jack smiled and said, "I'll pay five hundred."

"Jack, that's the price of a beautiful woman. For you, add two zeros at the end..."

"Alice, bring me my boxing gloves..."

"You guys are busy, I'm going upstairs to rest."

"Ha ha…"

...

...

The game between Arsenal and Bayern is scheduled for Friday night.

UEFA deliberately staggered the European league matches so that more fans could watch the game live on television.

UEFA conducted market research before the game. Among the Champions League games that fans most want to watch, the game between Arsenal and Bayern ranks highest.

Followed by the game between Barcelona and AC Milan.

It is reported that 176 countries have applied for live broadcast, and even the football kingdom-Brazil has purchased the live broadcast rights.

There are more than 200 TV stations whose live broadcast rooms are located directly in the Emirates Stadium.

This is a highly watched game.

Champions League match day,

Outside the Emirates Stadium, it turned into a sea of ​​red and white early on. Scalpers tripled the price of the tickets in their hands and asked them if they wanted to take it.

The vendors' stalls were crowded with people. The best products they sold were beer and throat lozenges, followed by Arsenal's team flags and player stickers...

Fans usually buy things like jerseys and scarves at specialty stores, but mobile vendors like these cannot sell them.

Compared with the derby game, the atmosphere outside the Emirates Stadium is warm and relaxed, and the fans regard it more as a festival.

Alice was dressed up beautifully tonight. Instead of going with her parents, she went to watch the game with her best friends.

At a stall, he spent two pounds to paint the Arsenal emblem on the left face and Xia Qi's portrait on the right face.

The painting at the stall is not done with watercolor pens, but with stickers directly stuck on the face, and then the film is gently peeled off, and the pattern remains on the face.

Of course, the price of this kind of painting is very close to the people. Normally ten stickers cost one pound, and tonight one sticker costs one pound. It is more profitable than the scalpers who sell tickets, but the reputation is much better than the scalpers. At least after the sale is over, the buyer will say thank you!

...

...

Arsenal were afraid of traffic jams and set off early. As a result, the fans gave way to them and the journey was smooth.

After arriving in the locker room, I didn't go to warm up immediately because it was too early.

If you warm up too early, your body will be cold when it’s time to compete, which is not good.

The players started doing things they liked, some were listening to music, some were playing games, some were texting, some were chatting...

After half an hour like this, Xia Qi and other players went to warm up.

Wenger took Arteta to the pre-match press conference.

During the warm-up, Xia Qi saw Ribery, the Scar Man. Bayern should be flying on both sides tonight.

Back in the locker room,

Xia Qi and others began to change clothes and organize their protective gear. This was very important. Everyone took care of their shin guards carefully. Even Balotelli, who had always been playful, was very serious at this time.

After Wenger returned to the dressing room, he did not interrupt their hand movements.

After everyone was fully dressed, he clapped his hands to signal everyone to listen to him.

"This game is very important for us. We have been preparing for tonight for a long time.

But for now I want you to travel light and forget for a moment that this is a knockout tournament.

Enjoy the game with a relaxed mood and show off our recent training results..."

on the other side of the court

Heynckes: "Kids, please forget about the 2:4 score for a moment and go slaughter your opponents.

Yes, I'm talking about massacre.

do you know? Our opponent is afraid of us.

They were afraid that we would come back and win, so they changed their formation.

They gave up on what they do best, which is why I say tonight was a bloodbath.

Enjoy the game, kids. "

...

...

"Viewers, this is the Penguin Sports live broadcast room. You are welcome to watch on time at one o'clock in the morning on Saturday. In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals in the 2012-2013 season, Arsenal will face the Bundesliga leader Bayern at home."

"I am the commentator, Zhang Lu."

"I am your old friend, Zhan Jun."

Zhan Jun: "Tonight's game is very important for Arsenal. In the past eight years, Arsenal has stopped in the top 16 of the Champions League in seven of the past eight years.

They have made great progress this season, leading Bayern 4:2 in the first leg. There is great hope to break the curse of 16 players in the Champions League and advance to the quarterfinals. "

"For Bayern, the Bundesliga can no longer prove themselves. Only the Champions League is their pursuit..."

Zhang Lu: "There are many things to watch in tonight's game, whether Arsenal's change of formation is successful, whether Franck Ribery will play, and whether Bayern's two wings can fly together after playing.

Can Xia Qi be qualified as a defensive midfielder? Arsenal’s core three and Bayern’s dual-core midfielder…”

"...Dear spectators, the players are waiting to play in the tunnel. Let me announce to you the starting lineups of the two teams.

Bayern 4231 lineup

Goalkeeper: Neuer

Defenders: Alaba, Dante, Boateng, Lahm

Midfielder: Javi Martinez, Schweinsteiger, Kroos, Ribery, Robben

Forward: Mandzukic

Substitutes: Muller, Gustavo, Gomez,…

Arsenal is 343 lineup:

Goalkeeper: Martinez

Defenders: Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Umtiti

Midfielder: Cazorla, Arteta, Xia Qi, De Bruyne

Forwards: Podolski, Balotelli, Walcott

Substitutes: Wilshere, Aurier, Giroud..."

Xia Qi was in the player tunnel, and the theme song "Our factory has collapsed" played. When he heard the game against Barcelona and Bayern Munich... he couldn't help but laugh.

Soon he entered the venue amidst deafening cheers.

Before Al could control himself, Xia Qi looked up at the "C" stand where Alice was.

Compared with the warm-up time, it was different. The stands were full at this time...

Arsenal fans were so enthusiastic that they kept shouting the players' names.

After entering the stadium, players from both sides lined up to take photos and then shook hands with each other.

After completing these necessary procedures,

It sounded in my mind:

"Ding Dong"

"Please host select 'training' or 'competition' mode."

"Contest"

"Please host choose the pitch position: A forward, B midfielder..."

"B"

"Please host choose the midfield position: A midfielder, B wing-back, C defensive midfielder."

"C!"

"Please host choose the type of defensive midfielder: A organizing midfielder, B defensive midfielder."

"TO"

"Detecting the current predicament of the host's team, matching the attributes of the host [Swan Star]."

"The offense can destroy the city, the defense can be as stable as Mount Tai, the most versatile hexagonal warrior-Black Swan, the ceiling in the defensive midfielder position..."

"Please host choose 'autonomous mode' or 'one-click hang-up mode'"

Live footage began to appear, with close-ups of the players on the field. Under each player's close-up, there were various statistics of the player's Champions League matches this season.

First the Bayern players...then the Arsenal players.

Every Arsenal player who appears on the big screen will draw enthusiastic cheers from the fans in the stadium.

Among them, Xia Qi and Martinez cheered the loudest.

When Xia Qi's figure appeared in the camera, many girls shouted: "Husband, husband..."

The live broadcast director was also the one who caused the trouble. When he heard the girls cheering, he immediately pushed the live broadcast camera to the VIP box.

Xia Qi's rumored girlfriend-Emma Watson entered the camera.

When Watson saw himself appearing in the camera, he waved gracefully, but received a burst of boos. Watson was not angry and waved again with a smile.

In the C stand, Alice's best friend said to Alice with an envious look: "They match each other so well."

Alice frowned slightly and said, "Xia Qi said they are not lovers."

"Really? Watson has unrequited love?"

"Is it possible that Xia Qi wants to step into two different boats..."

"What? Xia Qi and I are just ordinary friends..."

Also in the live broadcast are Arsenal’s owner Kroenke and Bayern’s eternal god Beckenbauer.

When Beckenbauer's shot appeared on the big screen, the boos were deafening...

It's clear that Arsenal fans don't welcome him sitting next to their boss.

Beep!

The game begins......
