This is really positive. Absolutely!
Henry was also interviewed by French Football. When asked a few questions, Henry was very frank.
"What do you think of Arsenal this season?"
Henry said, "At first, we doubted whether it would be a black season. I was injured. Sol Campbell and Ashley Cole were also injured. At one time, almost no one could even make up the list of 16 players in training. In the league, we paid the price."
"Are there other factors that explain your most difficult season in London?"
"It should be recalled that before Vieira left, opponents sent two people to guard him. Pires and Ljungberg were much freer than now. We asked Flamini to play left-back and he was a right-footed player. I took my hat off to him. He learned from the pain. You know we can’t ask a young player to perform well immediately. After this stage, we can free ourselves to try something. When I first came to Arsenal, I followed this step."
"Arsenal didn’t perform well away from home."
"We often lose by one goal because we are young and we have done better after going to Madrid. If you can score one or two goals, it will be more difficult for him to reverse it."
"Is this an efficiency problem? Is it explained that the team relies too much on you?"
"No, the first thing we emphasized was the team Lehmann, gilberto, Bergkamp and Campbell. We said to ourselves that we should guide the team and do it on our own. We should bet on young people. I scored some goals, but remember that it is not necessary to finish the final shot at a certain time. We are ranked 8 th, 15 th and closer than 4 th."
"The game made you very happy. It was finished in beating Tottenham."
It was a special pleasure to win back the competition from them. First, the atmosphere was special. It was the last game in Highbury. Second, it was like winning the championship for the fans.
The reporter talked with Henry about some things about Arsenal’s season, and then began to talk about Henry’s personal transfer. Many people know that Henry will leave Arsenal and it is very likely that he will move to Barcelona. This has something to do with Barcelona and Henry, and Wenger has also said something to Henry. It is certain that Henry must have thought about leaving Barcelona and hoped that Henry could join us, but Arsenal must hope to keep Henry. After all, they don’t like their top scorer. It is absolutely a loss for Arsenal to leave at a low transfer price, and Wenger and Henry have been in love for so many years. Arsenal and Henry are tied down when Henry is at the peak of his career. For example, Arsenal don’t want to lose Henry.
The reporter asked the key question "such as explaining your kiss on the turf after scoring the third goal?"
This is one of the biggest focuses of Henry’s transfer news, that is, Henry kissed the stadium after playing a hat trick at Highbury Stadium, which was interpreted by the media as "Henry kissed Arsenal goodbye"
In addition, in both rounds of Arsenal Villarreal, some interesting tidbits appeared in the first round of the stadium. In Highbury, a cute little squirrel broke into the stadium and attracted everyone’s love, but in el madrigal in the second round, it was a Barcelona fan. His behavior must have made Arsenal fans very uncomfortable.
At the beginning of the half-time, when both players entered the stadium, suddenly a fan escaped the security guard’s eyes and ran into the stadium to see that he was strong and strident. He was wearing an Argentine jersey. The middle-aged man ran in front of Arsenal captain Henry and gave him a Barcelona No.14 jersey that was held high in his hand.
Henry felt very embarrassed because he had been hearing that Barcelona wanted him to join the club, including Eto ‘o and Ronaldinho, and everyone publicly invited him in the media, and Henry Arsenal’s contract renewal negotiations were delayed, but the fan’s behavior gave them a bad feeling.
Henry took a long breath. He knew that he had to say something to make Arsenal fans have confidence in themselves, but as a matter of fact, he hasn’t decided whether to leave yet. "I want to clarify everything as soon as possible. It was a farewell kiss to the stadium, not a farewell kiss to the team. We are going to move to a new stadium, but I will never forget Highbury’s memory."
This can also explain.
The season is very important for Arsenal, not the results, but that they will move to a new stadium and start a new journey after the Premier League this month.
Although Highbury is the most famous stadium in the world, Arsenal still realize that it is necessary to have a bigger and bigger baseball stadium in order to compete with those elite European clubs. Highbury Stadium is too small. At first, it was the head coach Wenger who proposed to build a new stadium. "I don’t remember exactly when I proposed to the board of directors to build a stadium. Maybe after we won the" Double Championship "in 1998, although I actively participated in it, I am not a director. I am a consultant to participate. I am the head coach of the team. It is my responsibility for the club to expand and contribute, and it is very important for the club to have a
Due to the lack of funds, the club announced that the completion of the new stadium was postponed from five years to six years, which caused many speculations. It is said that the team will share the stadium with Tottenham Hotspur at Highbury Stadium.
Wenger refuted this statement, saying, "We will consider different suggestions, but we have always focused on the new construction plan. We have also considered rebuilding the Highbury Stadium, but that will increase the number of seats by 7 or 7. Please believe us, we have considered a lot and found that ashburn grve is the most suitable building."
This is the most important decision in Arsenal’s history since Chapman was invited to coach in 1995.
The construction of a new stadium is also an important reason why Arsenal has been in financial difficulties in recent years. The planned cost of this new stadium has reached 390 million pounds, while the total cost of building the stadium has reached 470 million pounds in the past three years. Even if the Arsenal Club has a board of directors to inject capital, there will be no improvement in the economy. Fortunately, Arsenal signed a sponsorship contract with a total value of 100 million pounds, and Arsenal can complete the construction of the new stadium in the plan. The new stadium is also named’ Chief’ At the same time, the Emirates Stadium started the first season at the new stadium, that is, when Emirates replaced Arsenal jerseys as the main sponsor for 8 years.
Of course, the most important thing is to fight Liverpool.
"What does it mean to return to the Stadio de France?"
"I’m excited to be back here, but the most important thing is that the final is a great moment."
"Do you think you will win or Liverpool will win?"
Henry said, "To be honest, I think Liverpool have more champions. They performed quite well on the 13th. Compared with him, I was very surprised at many goals and the efficiency of goals. He was the most watched focus in Europe last season. Although Florence won the European Golden Boot Award, I think this award should include the Champions League goals, otherwise it would be unfair."
"There is no doubt that he will win the highest honor as a shooter."
"But we are also very confident that we will try our best to win, and I will try my best to win the team. I hope the final victory will be ours."
Even the last interview before the game, Henry was modest, and the interview with Reyes made many media dissatisfied. This may also be because the players are smart and have what ability to say outside the stadium. Even Henry has to compliment his opponent because Zhang Tiehan scored more goals than him, but Arsenal really failed to win twice against Liverpool this season. Zhang Tiehan said that’ winning’ was because Liverpool’s performance was due to his own goal performance. Reyes said that it was not very valuable.
So when the game started, it was conceivable that Arsenal didn’t have Reyes in the squad, and the Spanish guy was probably not very popular with Wenger.
Although many media believe that Arsenal will partner Henry and Reyes, the fact is just like more media speculation that Arsenal still has a striker in the starting lineup.
Arsenal did this for most of the season.
This may be related to Vieira’s departure from Arsenal last summer. Arsenal’s midfield ability has slipped a lot, so in Arsenal’s tactical system, the role of two strikers is very limited. It is better to send two strikers to the front than Henry alone, and the efficiency will not be much lower. A midfielder can always supplement the midfield ability, and both defense and attack can make Arsenal do better overall.
Perhaps more importantly, the teenager Fabregas is not mature enough. He needs a better environment to play the five-midfield combination, which will give Fabregas more choices and more support in the midfield, which will also make him less stressed and perform better.
This is how Wenger arranged the starting lineup in this game.
The five midfielders are Hleb, Gilberto, Fabregas and Ljungberg Pires from left to right.
There is no change in the defense combination. Eboue and Ashley Cole are Arsenal’s impregnable full-backs Campbell and Toure are even more impregnable central defenders.
Arsenal’s starting line-up was not unexpected.
Similarly, nothing has changed in Liverpool. Zhang Tiehan is still at the forefront, but the formation is not 451, but 431. Liverpool’s style of play is different from Arsenal’s. Liverpool is not good at attacking and defending, but it is a steady and steady team. Gerrard and Sissoko are three avantgarde, namely Riise, Alonso Garcia, four defender Angel, Sami Hyypia, Carragher and Warnock.
After the start of the game, both teams are not strong in attacking rhythm, and it seems that they have to test their opponents to find the feeling of the game.
All media are prepared for this. Although the two teams are familiar with each other, after all, this is the Champions League final. Any player who makes a mistake is likely to cause the whole team to lose, so he is likely to become a’ tragedy’. There are many examples in football history, and many of them are players who make mistakes in major events. In fact, it is a small mistake. In such a major event, a goal is likely to determine the ownership of the championship trophy.
The pressure on the players of both teams is not small.
Arsè ne Wenger told the players to try their best to play the rhythm of the team in the game. Arsenal rhythm is their unique football attack and defense, which may shape Arsenal. Arsenal rhythm is fast attack and fast goal. If the team can play a sense, the French believe that the team will definitely win the game.
However, there is nothing special for Zhang Tiehan to defend Wenger.
In fact, now the two teams are too familiar with each other, and they are also very familiar with Zhang man of iron’s Premier League opponents, including Arsenal. Every coach knows that it is almost impossible for a star player like Zhang Tiehan to stop it. It is better to concentrate on defending Zhang Tiehan than on his own team’s attack.
Arsenal’s last game is to score goals with Liverpool!
That’s what Wenger thinks.
Arsenal did the same thing. In the first ten minutes of the game, they didn’t score very hard, but gradually their rhythm began to pick up. At this time, without commanding Liverpool, they knew what to do, that is, to strengthen confrontation and limit Arsenal’s attack, so that they could feel it, or let Arsenal kick the downwind ball. That was really terrible.
However, this restriction has little effect.
In the 16th minute, Arsenal’s attack almost broke Liverpool’s goal, which was an excellent performance of Fabregas. After he received the ball from his teammate in the middle, he suddenly broke out and shook Gerrard away. Then he kicked the ball into the penalty area with a wonderful kick. Henry caught the ball and turned and volleyed directly!
Reina’s reaction speed is quite fast, which may have been training with Zhang Tiehan. At the moment Henry shot, Reina rushed to one side. He was so conscious that he didn’t see the football route clearly and flew out directly.
The football hit Reina directly, bounced to the ground and was cleared by Carragher’s big foot.
This attack made Liverpool fans break out in a cold sweat!
It is too dangerous!
"Reina! He saved a must-have goal! I have to say that the best performance of the game so far is Reina’s goal! Henry’s shot is almost in that position. At that angle, we can see that Reina has already jumped out at the moment when Henry turned to shoot. The reaction is really fast! It seems that he is in good shape today and it may be a headache to meet such a Reina Arsenal! "
The goalkeeper’s state can really determine the outcome of a game. Now Reina’s performance has reassured Liverpool a lot, and Henry’s shot just now has also made Liverpool players scared.
Zhang Tiehan couldn’t help giving Reina a a thumbs-up in midfield.
He hasn’t got any good chance since the game started. The overall performance of the attacking team just now was not good. He also made a mistake himself. He came to cooperate with Garcia and kicked the ball in Gilberto’s body, which almost caused the other team to get a quick break and counterattack.
But overall, the team was a little flustered by Arsenal’s attack. Zhang Tiehan quickly told everyone to stabilize.
He believes that Arsenal are no match in normal games.
After the restart of the game, Liverpool began to play steadily, and Zhang Tiehan scored more goals in the frontcourt. At this time, many Arsenal players felt that Zhang Tiehan was not as good as he had heard. He didn’t play well in the game for more than ten minutes and twenty minutes, and he also made a mistake. His performance in midfield was just a ball with his teammates, and his performance in one shot was really rare.
Many Arsenal players have settled down.
