Chapter 261 King of North London

"Martin!"

"Martin!!"

"Martin!!!"

When the Arsenal players came to their fans' gathering area holding the symbol of the EFL Cup, their huge shouts rang out over the stadium.

The much-anticipated Martin smiled and waved, thanking the fans for their full support.

When the fans saw their idol's response, their outburst became even more powerful.

At this moment, the entire new Wembley Stadium once again became a sea of ​​joy for Arsenal fans.

Arsenal, who won the EFL Cup in the 2015-2016 season, returned to the dressing room and did not continue to celebrate wildly.

First of all, the honor of this championship trophy is not particularly high, and secondly, there will be six games in the next 20 days.

It’s almost a game every three days.

Four league games, one FA Cup quarter-final and the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

This situation continues until the international match day at the end of March.

For the players who have performed well in the Arsenal team, they still have to travel a lot to participate in the national team competition.

The terrifying FIFA virus is also something Wenger is worried about.

The Gunners he coaches have always had poor bench depth.

Once an important player is injured, it will be a huge blow to the final stage of the game.

On the afternoon of the second day after winning the championship, the Arsenal team conducted recovery training at the Colney training base.

The main players cooperate with the physical therapist's recovery plan to speed up the recovery of physical functions.

The continuous high-intensity battles made even Sanchez, who is known for his physical fitness, feel a little tired.

Martin, a physical maniac, is the only one in the team who seems to have nothing to do. He maintains a high level of energy consumption in every training session and every game while ensuring sufficient physical reserves.

Although the glory of the EFL Cup championship is not very influential, it is of great significance to Arsenal and Wenger.

Especially Wenger.

The last time Arsenal won the League Cup was back in the 1992-1993 season, the first year of the Premier League.

Wenger coached Arsenal in the first half of the 1996-1997 season, so he did not get involved in this championship.

Both the 2006-2007 and 2010-2011 seasons had a chance to win the championship, but unfortunately they lost to Chelsea and Birmingham respectively.

Wenger, who has been quite successful in charge of the Gunners, finally won his first EFL Cup championship.

Martin once again contributed two wonderful goals, and the British media naturally wanted to publicize them to compete with the superstars Messi and Ronaldo from La Liga.

As the most competitive league in world football, it naturally has to match the strongest superstars!

In their opinion, Martin is the most suitable player!
Young, capable, and the key is handsome enough.

The domestic media in Dragon Kingdom once again gave unprecedented coverage to Martin, almost describing him as the first football champion in the 21st century.

The person involved, Martin, was not affected by various praises from the outside world. He focused all his attention on preparing for the competition in March.

There is no room for error in every game.

But before that, he first received the [English League Cup Champion] on the system's achievements page.

The reward items issued are a bit shabby compared to the past.

2W green coins + 5 points of freely allocated attributes.

The positional conditions bring dribbling benefits, so he hopes to become an extremely smooth dribbling breakthrough like Messi.

The current [Dribbling] attribute is 86, an increase of 4 points, and the remaining 1 point is used for flexibility.

The process of high-speed dribbling requires not only balance, but also physical flexibility.

They became 90 and 86 respectively.

In an instant, Martin felt that his control of the football was more mature, and he had a smooth and silky feeling.

This situation is directly reflected in the high-speed pole change at the system training ground.

……

The 2015th round of the 2016-28 Premier League season has quietly arrived.

The league kicked off first at the home ground of 'Canary' Norwich City. The visiting team Chelsea won the game 2:1 with Hazard's outstanding performance.

League matches being played at the same time include Leicester City VS West Bromwich Albion, Sunderland VS Crystal Palace, Aston Villa VS Everton, and Bournemouth VS Southampton.

There is only one game that Arsenal fans care about.

Leicester City, sitting at the King Power Stadium, fought hard for 10 and 2 minutes and drew 2:[-] with visiting West Bromwich Albion.

Arsenal's home league match against Swansea kicks off at 45:[-]pm the next day.

Arsenal, which has rotated its lineup, has seen a decline in its overall state. Considering the North London Derby away at White Hart Lane on the weekend, the players have made conscious adjustments.

It was all thanks to Martin's header towards the end of the first half that he assisted Giroud to score, winning 1:0 against visiting Swansea.

There is also very good news for Arsenal. Welbeck, who was injured for most of the season, came on as a substitute at the end of the game and showed a very good competitive state.

As the season comes to an end, the return of powerful forwards will have a very positive effect on the championship competition in various competitions.

Defeat Swansea as a guest, extending the points lead to 15 points!
Moreover, there is still one game less.

It means that there are 11 games left in Arsenal's league, and no media has doubted that they will regain the league championship after 11 seasons!
A London derby ends later at the London Bowl.

The visiting team Tottenham lost 0:1 to West Ham United, which has been robbing the rich and giving to the poor this season.

The most talked-about battle was when Liverpool faced Manchester City, who lost the EFL Cup final, at Anfield.

With all the main players playing in the EFL Cup, Manchester City obviously couldn't bear it when they returned to the league.

Playing away from home again, Liverpool can be said to be waiting for work.

Lallana, Milner and Firmino each scored one goal.

3:0
Liverpool easily defeated Manchester City, who lacked both physical fitness and fighting spirit.

The 2015th round of the 2016-29 Premier League season kicked off just three days later.

The schedule of the North London Derby is the same as before. The focus battle is either the first game of the round or the finale.

Time is kind to Arsenal, and it is scheduled for the last game of the 29th round.

After several upsets in the last round of the league, there are no upsets in this round of league.The only surprising thing was Chelsea's 1:1 home draw with Stoke City, which was recovering in form.

Until the penultimate league game arrives.

Manchester United lost 0:1 to West Bromwich Albion as a guest, causing the biggest upset of this round.

In this context, the North London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal at home has received huge attention.

Fans and celebrities from both teams always get into trouble at this time.

First they greeted each other on social media, and then started dating in person before the game day.

The local police in London have rich experience in dealing with this kind of situation. They have arranged a large number of security personnel for a long time, which made it impossible for the two sides to fight in the North London Derby.

In this regard, we can only return to social media and open various greetings.

In the past, Tottenham fans could still laugh at Arsenal's desire to compete for the top four. With the EFL Cup won and a significant lead in league points, Tottenham fans have nothing to ridicule.

On the contrary, Tottenham fans' showroom, which is cleaner than their faces, has become the focus of cynicism from Arsenal fans.

Tottenham players were also affected, and one by one they were persuaded by Arsenal fans to leave quickly, otherwise they would not be able to get any honors for 100 years.

Outstanding young players such as Harry Kane, Eriksen, and Kyle Walker who have performed well have received direct invitations from Arsenal fans, hoping that they can join Arsenal, the king of North London, this summer.

After all, there is no championship to be won by staying at Tottenham.

The most important thing is that the boss Levi is still ruthless.

No matter how good your performance is, don't think about getting a new high-paying contract until the last year of the contract period.

Although Arsenal owner Kroenke is also stingy, he can still grit his teeth and spend real money to buy Martin, the best young player in the Bundesliga last season, with a record transfer fee in the Premier League.

It is precisely because of this that Arsenal has risen rapidly this season and become the best performing team in the Big6.

Dragon Kingdom media and fans often provoke South Korea fans at this time.

It is also a north London team that joined the Premier League last summer.

One performs like a god, the other performs terribly.

Martin was praised by Arsenal fans.

On the other hand, Son Heung-min has been continuously bombarded by Tottenham fans recently, thinking that he is the number one parallel importer in team history.

After all, Levi spent 3000 million euros of real money like Grandet.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it’s the Tottenham VS Arsenal match day.

The White Hart Lane stadium, with a capacity of just over 6000 fans, is much smaller than the Premier League's home stadium, which can easily exceed [-] fans.

Martin came to this stadium with the team at the beginning of the season and has good memories.

In the third round of the League Cup, he led Arsenal to a 3:1 victory over their rivals in North London.

This season, Arsenal is able to top the league table with one game in hand, and Martin deserves most of the credit.

Therefore, when Martin arrived at White Hart Lane, he was subjected to all kinds of abuse from Tottenham fans. There were countless extremely insulting banners, slogans, and posters.

Martin, who was sitting in the bus, narrowed his eyes slightly and had already transferred the behavior of Tottenham fans to the next league opponent, Tottenham.

Since there is nothing that can be done to the fans, the only one who can face the anger is... Tottenham!
"wuwuwuuuu——"

Not long after, the Arsenal players, who had changed into their training shirts, entered White Hart Lane to warm up. Unsurprisingly, they were met with overwhelming boos.

Tottenham players led by Harry Kane enter the field and enjoy the treatment they deserve at home.

A huge roar swept the entire venue.

About an hour before the game, the Premier League's official website leaked the starting lineups of both sides.

Tottenham is still in a 4231 formation.

Goalkeeper: Lloris

Defenders: Danny Rose, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Kyle Walker

Defenders: Dembele, Dier

Midfielder: Lamela, Alli, Eriksen

Forward: Harry Kane

……

Arsenal also arranged a 4231 formation.

Goalkeeper: Petr Cech
Defenders: Monreal, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Bellerin
Back midfielder: Coquelin, Martin

Forwards: Sanchez, Ramsey, Walcott

Forward: Giroud

……

When the Korean media and fans saw that Son Heung-min was once again excluded from Tottenham's starting lineup, they all once again sneered and returned all the grievances they had suffered in the past to the ugly South Koreans.

Martin has become No. 1 in the Premier League with his outstanding performance, and the target player is Melo's level.

What level is your Son Heung-min?
Just a young player who hasn't proven himself in the Premier League.

Dare you touch the number one star in Asia?

Even if he can achieve the height of winning the Premier League Golden Boot in the future, he is still not on the same level as himself, so naturally he will not pay attention to the other party.

The atmosphere at White Hart Lane was frenetic, with Tottenham fans near the Arsenal warm-up area booing harshly.

Especially after seeing Martin's extremely strong competitive state, he was worried and could only find another way through this method. He planned to use 'magic' to affect Martin's performance in the game, otherwise it would seriously affect the performance of his beloved team at home. Final match results.

Tottenham fans were a little depressed. They keenly discovered that the louder the boos, the better Martin's performance... seemed to be.

This is how to do?
All the home fans were stunned.

Arsenal fans who accompanied the team on their 'expedition' saw Martin in excellent form and became more and more confident in defeating Tottenham as a guest!

What about away games?

I'll still torture you!
Who is the King of North London?

Arsenal!
Judging from his performance this season, he should be...the King of London!
The warm-up time, which lasted about four and 10 minutes, was over, and the players from both teams returned to their respective locker rooms through the tunnel.

Fans waiting for this game know that the world-famous North London Derby will kick off soon...
