"Emery gave him a full week's holiday. He failed to win Sporting Lisbon at home in midweek, but it did not affect Arsenal's advancement."
"Continuing to play at home today, Emery put Ronaldo on the bench. Against the newly promoted team, it seems that he is not needed to hold the line. But I want to remind everyone that the Wolves have lost three games in a row and are likely to rebound."
"However, Arsenal are very good at bullying, especially against newly promoted teams. In the previous 21 home games against newly promoted teams, they achieved 19 wins and 2 draws, so no matter how you look at it, Arsenal will never lose this game.
game."
"If Ronaldo does not start, I predict Arsenal will win the game at home 3:1 or 2:0." Michael Owen continued to partner with Arsenal legend Paul Merson to commentate on the game today.
He tasted the sweetness of Arsenal in the last round and continues to be optimistic about Arsenal this round.
Paul Merson still expressed caution towards his old club: "It's hard to say. If Ronaldo doesn't play, Arsenal will still be a very ordinary team. The last round against Liverpool was heart-wrenching. That was because of Ronaldo. We played against Sporting Lisbon in the middle of the week."
It’s no longer possible. If I can’t make it this time, I feel like it will still be very difficult.”
"Although Wolves have not played well recently, there are many capable Portuguese players in the team. They may cause trouble. If the team that has lost three consecutive games does not rebound, the head coach may have to be fired. Nuno should
I would not put myself in such a dangerous situation.”
"Although the Wolves have lost three games in a row, the Wolves have scored in every game. This is a dangerous sign."
"Today their starting lineup is 433, goalkeeper Patricio, defender Willy Boly, Conor Cody, Ryan Bennett, Jonny Otto; midfielder Moutinho, Ruben
· Neves, Matt Doherty; forwards Ivan Cavaleiro, Raul Jimenez, Helder Costa.”
"On Arsenal's side, Leno was injured last week, so Cech is still starting. The back line is Lichtsteiner, Papastathopoulos, Holding and Kolasinac; the midfielder is Thomas
Leyla, Xhaka, Iwobi and Smith Rowe, the forwards are Lacazette and Aubameyang. This lineup is a bit conservative, there is no 433, and the defenders do not have Mustafi and Monreal, I guess
Emery has lost trust in them."
The draw in the Europa League in mid-week did not make the home fans lose interest. The stadium was still full today, and Luo Wu's huge head was flying in the stands, completely blocking the sky.
Luo Wu was hiding in the corner of the bench as before, chatting with Guendouqi next to him.
After the battle started, Arsenal players discovered that Wolves dared to take the initiative to attack at the Emirates Stadium! The Wolves were the first to get the opportunity. Midfielder Moutinho found his teammate Cavaleiro with a long overhead pass.
Valero volleyed the ball with his left foot in the penalty area without stopping the ball. Cech was frightened into a cold sweat. Fortunately, the ball hit the side net. If it had been a world-class forward who had shot it, the result might not have been the same.
Same.
Although the veteran Lichtsteiner has rich defensive experience, his physical function has indeed declined a lot, and he will suffer when facing the impact of young people.
Then Arsenal doubted the color. Xhaka and Torreira hit the wall continuously in the middle and advanced to the frontcourt. Then Smith Rowe split the wing. Smith Rowe made a cross to find Lacazette. Lacazette's header hit the goal and directly took the ball.
Sent into the arms of the opposing goalkeeper.
The midfield battle was fierce. Portuguese Neves knocked down Xhaka near the midfield line. Xhaka rolled several times before getting up. However, the referee only gave Neves a verbal warning, which seemed to be very lenient.
Xhaka then distributed the ball to the right, and Iwobi singled out the opponent's left back Jonny Otto, but the pass was too wide and the ball went out of the baseline.
"Without Ronaldo on the pitch, Arsenal are just noobs."
"Will it lose the ball first again?"
As soon as Paul Merson's words fell, Wolves immediately launched a quick counterattack, hitting Arsenal on the left. Helder Costa took the ball and faced Kolasinac, trying to change inside and cut towards the center.
As a result, Torreira, who was being defended, made a sliding tackle from the side!
Helder Costa fell over and couldn't get up again.
"Oh haha,"
"It's not easy,"
"Arsenal can actually injure their opponents? I thought it was only when Arsenal players were injured by their opponents. It seemed that Helder Costa was going to be injured. Is this an improvement for Arsenal?"
Paul Merson said sarcastically.
This guy is right. The Arsenal players were miserable on and off the pitch one after another. Today, they are feeling proud and proud. Torreira deserves a lot of credit...
When Costa was carried off the court on a stretcher, he stayed far away.
The guy who came in as a substitute was a big guy.
That guy looked like a super monster in the camera, with tendons that looked like they were going to burst the jersey. He walked like a heavy tank, and you could feel the pressure from the opponent just by looking at him.
Owen exclaimed:
"this……"
"The monster is coming!"
"Oh my god, how could I forget him! Adama Traore Diarra!"
"This is a monster!"
"Hulk!"
"I feel that this is when Arsenal's defense is in danger. Will he break down Arsenal's defense?" Owen then remembered Adama Traore, who had just transferred from Middlesbrough.
"Is this guy very strong? Not necessarily, he's just physically strong and has a second-rate football intelligence." Merson expressed a different opinion.
"Don't you look at how many goals he scored in Aston Villa and Middlesbrough? He can break through, but his passing is third-rate!"
Adama Traore became famous at a young age. He came out of La Masia's youth training camp. He represented Barcelona in the first team before he was 18 years old. However, he started high and low and soon left Barcelona and came to the Premier League.
But he failed to perform well at Aston Villa and Middlesbrough, and now he has wandered to Wolves.
In previous games, head coach Nuno put him on the bench and only gave him ten minutes of playing time in each game. Naturally, Traore had no chance to perform.
I guess I’m almost exhausted now!
Although he is very strong, he is still an ordinary player after all, so Arsenal does not take him seriously.
but!
The first time he touched the ball, it instantly made people feel like they were exploding!
After the ball rolled to his feet, Traore shook his powerful and thick legs. After stepping on the bicycle twice in succession, he accelerated like a ball lightning! In an instant, he spiked the ball and accelerated past Kolasina.
tz!
Kolasinac only felt that his vision went dark, and then saw the light again, and Traore had already rushed ten meters away with the ball!
What a terrifying speed!
"ah!"
"this……"
"This explosive power,"
"This speed!"
Owen almost lost his eyes in shock, and the Arsenal fans in the stands were also stunned.
The left wing was just blown away?
Immediately after Traore quickly crossed to the right side of the penalty area, Torreira and Holding rushed to his side almost at the same time. Traore struck east and west, pretending to continue to press, but suddenly swiped his right foot.
, swept the triangle and passed it back to Moutinho in the middle. Moutinho used the inside instep of his right foot to score a curved ball at the top of the penalty area!
The ball jumped over the heads of Iwobi and Lichtsteiner and landed at the feet of Jimenez. Jimenez immediately passed the ball low! Cavaleiro outflanked him in the middle and stabbed directly with his right foot!
"goooooooal!"
"goooooooooooal!"
"Ah, damn it."
"Ivan Cavaleiro put the ball in the goal."
"I really hit the mark..."
"This substitution by Nuno directly led to the goal."
"Traore has contributed a lot..."
"Kolasinac was like a stake in front of him."
Next to him, Paul Merson looked uncertain. He had trampled Traore and the Arsenal defense just now. What should he say now?
After thinking about it, he still complained, "Rookies peck each other."
"It's really unexpected..."
Rookies pecking each other? The Arsenal fans in the stands didn't think so. The fans were shocked by Traore's breakthrough just now. Before they could recover, Wolves scored.
This damn substitution!
"This guy is really scary."
"Kolasinac can't guard him at all, he needs to be replaced! Ouch~"
“Otherwise I feel beaten up!”
Fans immediately became worried.
But Emery, who was frowning on the sidelines, was troubled. There was no trustworthy candidate on the left! Monreal? Put Lichtsteiner on the left? Or let Holding make a cameo?
hehe……
He didn’t think there was a better choice!
While the Wolves players celebrated wildly, he walked to the bench instead.
"Lo!"
"It's time for you to warm up!"
Yes, he was thinking about Luo Wu, not the defender.
At this time, nuclear weapons must be prepared. Only when nuclear weapons are deployed can the opponent be suppressed. Everything else is useless.
After all, I didn't expect that Traore would come up and disrupt Arsenal's defense.
Put Luo Wu up and then let Smith Rowe go to the right, wouldn't it be possible to contain Traore? Emery's idea is very clear.
So everyone saw that less than 10 minutes into the game, Luo Wu took off his coat and was getting ready to warm up on the sidelines of the court.
"Ha ha,"
"Emery's father is about to play." Owen immediately joked, "Spaniards are very timid. When they are in danger, they can only think of Ronaldo. Only Ronaldo is the only solution."
"Saiyad, you have to follow closely, you can't let him have room to start!"
"You have to carry his body!"
Holding pulled Kolasinac, who was humiliated just now, and said.
Kolasinac hasn't regained consciousness yet! It's like he hasn't woken up from a nightmare. He just nodded subconsciously and didn't really listen at all.
"Don't worry, buddy, I will protect you behind you! I won't let him do this this time!" Holding patted him on the shoulder.
…
0:1, Arsenal has to start from conceding a goal again.
I don’t know which game I started behind...
Luo Wu slowly sat and stretched on the edge of the court while watching the game.
In fact, he was particularly impressed by Traore. When he was still in the Wolves youth training camp, he and the team went to Lama Youth Training Camp to participate in the invitational tournament. The younger Traore started in the game.
Traore ravaged the Wolves youth echelon into a state of disarray. Luo Wu was a member at that time, but he did not get a minute of playing time. The final score was 0:9. Barcelona madly ravaged the Wolves. Traore
One person scored 4 goals and assisted 3!
At that time, Luo Wu felt that Traore was a monster, and he was a fucking water fountain keeper.
Now that many years have passed, Traore has not grown to the height that people expected, but he has changed from the water dispenser keeper to a super killer. His fate is really sad. He squinted his eyes, and his eyes were always on Traore
On Lei's body.
Traore is really frustrated. He has not been able to win the starting position since his transfer. Now he is like a beast just released from the cage, madly pounced on Smith Rowe who is in possession of the ball.
Smith Rowe only saw Neves coming up to grab the ball from the front, but did not notice Traore coming up from the back. When he tried to get rid of Neves, Traore accelerated and rushed up from the left rear, and then
With a diagonal stab, the whole person instantly got to the left front of Traore, and then stabbed the ball away directly!
Like a cold wind!
"Ah, damn!"
Smith Rowe hurriedly chased Traore, but after Traore passed the ball to Moutinho, he strode straight forward and charged forward!
He looked quite explosive when running without the ball, and his muscles seemed to be burned by friction in the air. But at this time, Moutinho pushed the ball straight up!
Although Kolasinac ran over in advance, he was still half a beat too late, and was half a body ahead of Traore. The muscles in his body shook violently, and Kolasinac almost shook his right shoulder.
of!
Physical confrontation, Kolasinac was completely defeated!
Da~
After Traore caught up with the ball, he suddenly stepped forward.
The beast is out of the cage and cannot be controlled at all!
Holding did not appear where he should have appeared! He did not wipe Kolasinac's butt in time and did not fill the position!
Wodefak! Cech swore in front of the goal and hurriedly attacked from the small penalty area. He felt that even Papastathopoulos couldn't make up for it in time! He had to face it by himself.
His judgment was correct.
When Traore dribbled the ball to the right side of the penalty area, Papastathopoulos simply couldn't catch up!
But Traore had no intention of continuing to run forward with the ball, he hit the goal!
Throwing both arms at the same time, the muscles of the right thigh tightened suddenly, and the right calf was pulled out quickly!
Bang!
A shocking shot!
The ball flew towards the lower right corner of the goal like a cannonball!
Cech jumped down quite quickly, but not as fast as a cannonball!
Before anyone even fell down, the ball flew into the goal!
