Chapter 349 Arrogant Catalonia
For the Catalans, Barcelona is the Barcelona of Catalonia, not the Barcelona of Spain, even more so in football, every matchup between Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Spanish derby is so hot Not without this reason, Catalonia has always had the idea of ​​independence.

Although in recent years Barcelona has lost the momentum of the Dream Dynasty sweeping Europe, under the leadership of Van Gaal, Barcelona is still the top of the top in La Liga. Some reporters even said that Spain has two top leagues, one is the Western Super League, and the other is the Western Super League. There are only two teams, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​while the other is La Liga, which consists of teams other than Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Regarding Barcelona's next opponent in the Champions League group stage, most fans know nothing about this opponent except that they bloodbathed Fiorentina in the first round of the group stage. The English team has been away from Europe for too long. They are still masters of mystery. (England team banned from European competition for five years because of Liverpool's Heysel tragedy)

Although Van Gaal is still very afraid of Liu Han, a top center, but other than that, the Dutchman is still full of disdain for Arsenal. The head coach who once led Ajax to create glory is as proud Catalans, they don't like the rough tactics of the island team at all, even if the team's head coach is French.

"The top center forward decides Arsenal's simple tactics, and the British tradition is most suitable for the British team." This is the World Sports Daily's report on Arsenal's tactics. Barcelona's media seems to be a simple long pass, and the Catalans have never looked down on this tactic the most.

The more radical "Daily Sports" even commented that Liu Han is likely to not score a goal in this matchup between Arsenal and Barcelona, ​​​​because he may not get the ball, and Barcelona will keep the possession rate. Above 70.00%.

The two pro-Barca media in Spain are not optimistic about Arsenal's victory at the Nou Camp, while the "Marca" and "Aspen" who have been fighting against Barcelona have sarcastically said that Barcelona is likely to suffer a disastrous defeat. Because Liu Han will tear Barcelona's defense to pieces.

Although the Spanish media are constantly arguing, but in terms of points, Arsenal won two rounds of the UEFA Champions League group stage and won both games. The advantage of eight goals difference ranked first in Group E, followed closely behind. The last is the unbeaten Barcelona, ​​and their goal difference is less than half that of Arsenal.

The situation in Fiorentina is not good. If they want to qualify, they must win as much as possible in the next few rounds.

Arsenal need to play another Premier League game before facing Barcelona. The poor schedule of the Premier League has made Arsenal very dissatisfied. In seven days, three games, two of which are in the Champions League group stage, Arsenal had hoped that they could apply The postponement of this round of the Premier League game was rejected by the FA.

So, less than 9 hours after Arsenal's thrilling last-minute victory over AIK Solna on September 23, they were at home to Watford.

Wenger arranged a full substitute lineup for this game, but what made Liu Han happy was that although he failed to enter the squad, the 16-year-old Franck Ribery was transferred to the first team by Wenger to participate in training. The young man who was training under the arrangement of Wenger finally won the favor of all the coaches with his hard-working and serious attitude. Wenger then transferred the "fellow" to the first team and asked him to adapt to the atmosphere of the first team first. However, Liu Han took care of him. Bailey was not bullied after entering the first team, because everyone in the first team knew how Liu Han came to Arsenal. This story was once the most informative talk in the locker room. After all, such a story sounds Much like a saga.

Arsenal, who played all on the bench, beat Watford by one goal. Wenger can take the team to Catalonia with confidence.

The Arsenal team who came to Barcelona three days earlier felt a little uncomfortable. Compared with the terrible weather in London, the weather in Barcelona is very good, but the temperature is still close to [-] degrees at the end of September, which makes people who are used to the coldness of London The Arsenal team felt a little hot.

Regarding the arrival of the Arsenal team, the proud Catalans used a disregarded attitude to make Arsenal feel the bad atmosphere. It seems that the opponents did not regard Arsenal as a threatening opponent at all. Grid had such an idea after arriving in Barcelona.

Liu Han didn't pay attention to the outside world's comments on him. He is now preparing to focus on the game, and then he will go back to China directly after the game to participate in the Olympic qualifiers on October [-].

Originally, the Football Association wanted Liu Han to go back to practice with the Olympic team in advance, but the Arsenal Club refused without hesitation. Now Liu Han is already an indispensable battering ram for Arsenal.

In fact, Horton is not worried about Liu Han not being able to go back to participate in the joint training. He has created a set of "simple" tactics for Liu Han in his heart that is very suitable for him. Horton believes that only relying on Liu Han's super physical talent, the Olympic team There won't be too many problems in the Olympic qualifiers this time.

Wenger and Arsenal attach great importance to this duel with Barcelona. In October, Liu Han must return to China to participate in the "damn" Olympic qualifiers, so Arsenal want to qualify in the first round of the Champions League group stage. Enough points must be obtained in the first three games, and then Arsenal can take the challenge calmly after Liu Han leaves.

Wenger has arranged a style of play for Barcelona's lineup. This Barcelona team has a very strong midfielder. Rivaldo, Figo, Luis Enrique and Kluivert. There is a great reputation all over the world, but the three-back lineup that the conceited Dutchman Van Gaal created for Barcelona is simply vulnerable to Wenger, and Guardiola in this Barcelona midfielder position does not rely on defense. It is well known that Liu Han alone is enough to turn this defense upside down.

Compared with Arsenal's attention, Barcelona did not think highly of Arsenal. Although Liu Han's performance was strong enough, the tactics adopted by Arsenal were just restrained against Barcelona in Van Gaal's view. Gall believes that Arsenal's sneak attack-like defensive counterattack tactics will be completely suppressed by Barcelona's skillful pass and control tactics, and Liu Han, perhaps as the newspaper said, is useless if he can't receive the ball.
