Chapter 314: Arsenal’s youngest captain and also the record for the youngest captain in the Premier League
The first game of the 2016 International Champions Cup Dragon Country Division ended. Arsenal defeated Manchester City 8:2 at the 1-person stadium in Shanghai with Martin's two goals. Fans who bought tickets to enter the stadium to watch the game were worth their money. .

Martin played for 10 minutes and scored two goals. Before the start of the second half, he even saw the famous scene of fans entering the stadium. Both the fans at the scene and the fans in front of the TV were all very satisfied.

Mainstream European media also paid attention to this International Champions Cup in Dragon Country and were very surprised by Martin's outstanding performance.

The average player's warm-up matches before the start of the new season are relatively sluggish. After struggling throughout the season, they will inevitably relax during the rare summer vacation. The lack of systematic training will inevitably lead to body shape distortion and decline in physical function.

Martin, who participated in the International Champions Cup, has maintained a very good figure, even stronger than last season, and is in very good competitive shape.

Arsenal has made another major signing this summer, with an investment of more than [-] million pounds, and there are reports from the media that they are looking to buy a top striker.

As a result, European mainstream media believe that Arsenal in the 2016-2017 season will be more competitive than last season.

"Football London" believes that Arsenal in the new season is likely to replicate the achievements of the 2015-2016 season under the leadership of Martin and complete the defense of all competitions!
Martin is in excellent form, newly joined players Xhaka and Van Dijk are excellent, and powerful midfielder Kante has joined. Arsenal's three lines are becoming stronger and stronger.

The lineup of the previous seasons was able to win various championships. Wouldn’t it be easier if the lineup was upgraded before the new season?

The mouthpieces of the other five Big6 teams don't think so. They believe that Martin's outstanding performance last season was because many teams did not predict him enough. There will definitely be various targeted studies in the new season. If Martin wants to continue to perform well, the difficulty will be raised dramatically.

The focus of the media from the Dragon Kingdom is relatively simple, almost entirely surrounding Martin's outstanding performance and the young fans who rushed into the stadium. Especially the Dragon Kingdom fan who entered the stadium and hugged Martin, becoming the envy of many Martin fans.

Popular apps with social attributes such as scarves, Moments, slow-motion short videos, Dinggeqiu, Xianhu, and 13 Stations are almost all related to Martin and the young players rushing onto the court...

Martin did not pay attention to outside reports. He was only slightly concerned about whether the fan who rushed into the stadium was taken away.

The news received was good. The young man took the initiative to admit his mistake and expressed his deep understanding that what he did may have a negative impact. The relevant leaders of the organizer only gave an irrelevant verbal warning.

At noon the next day, the entire Arsenal team flew to the Imperial Capital by assistant to prepare for the second International Champions Cup Dragon Country Division match against Manchester United at the Bird's Nest.

After this game, the team will return to London to prepare for the Community Shield, the European Super Cup, and the focus game against Liverpool in the opening game of the 2016-2017 season, which will kick off in early August.

Mourinho is in charge of Manchester United and Wenger is still in charge of Arsenal. The two clash again, which naturally attracts great attention.

The two teams have a large number of fans in Longguo, and there are many fans who want to go to watch the game.

Ticket prices at the Bird's Nest continue to rise as a result.

The lowest-end 400 Dragon Coin ticket jumps directly to 2800 Dragon Coin, and the highest-end [-] Dragon Coin ticket rises to [-] Dragon Coin.

As Arsenal takes flights from Magic City to Imperial City, the price of game tickets is still rising further.

Whether it's Manchester United or Arsenal, the first thing they do when they arrive in the imperial capital is to cooperate with each team's sponsors in some commercial activities, and then do some charity activities.

Welfare homes, visiting the elderly, teaching primary school students how to play football, promoting the culture of their respective teams, etc...

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it’s the day of the International Champions Cup match between Arsenal and Manchester United.

Countless fans come to the Imperial Capital just to watch their favorite teams and players play live.

The day before the game, that is, the afternoon of July 7th.

The entire Arsenal team arrived at the Bird's Nest at [-]pm.

The venue was worse than imagined.

Due to the continuous heavy rains, the quality of the turf is very poor, with potholes everywhere, not much better than a vegetable field.

So much so that the players led by Martin had to be cautious even in their warm-up, for fear of being injured accidentally.

At the regular press conference before the game, both Wenger and Mourinho expressed concerns about the poor venue.

Mourinho has always been direct in interviews with the media. He said: "My biggest goal is for the players to be healthy and play for nine and 10 minutes."

Martin, who was paying attention to the media's repayment, suddenly remembered something...

However, his impression should be the Manchester Derby in the International Champions Cup.

"Maybe it was my little butterfly that caused Arsenal to join the International Champions Cup a year early, right?"

Martin thought of this
At noon on the day of the match, Arsenal players, as participating players, were the first to learn of the joint decision between the club and the organizing committee.

But the outside world only found out five hours before the game started.

An official announcement was made that fans who bought tickets for the Arsenal VS Manchester United match found it hard to accept.

Title: 2016 International Champions Cup Dragon Country - Arsenal VS Manchester United match at Imperial City canceled due to weather issues

[It is with great regret to announce to fans and media friends that due to the continuous heavy rainfall in recent days, in order to ensure the safety of players and fans, the tournament organizing committee and Arsenal and Manchester United jointly decided to cancel this game. It was originally scheduled for 2016 At 7:25 pm on July 20, [-], the International Champions Cup Dragon Kingdom Division-Didu Station-Arsenal VS Manchester United match held at the National Stadium "Bird's Nest" was cancelled. 】

Such a decision will undoubtedly make those fans who have traveled thousands of miles to the imperial capital feel very confused and even very angry.

It's true that there were continuous heavy rains on the 21st and 22nd, but what does it have to do with me on the 25th?
It took two or three days for the venue to fail to be arranged. What else could be the reason other than inaction and unprofessionalism?
Those fans who had paid high prices from scalpers were particularly angry and went to the organizers to make trouble.

However, the biggest loser is the rich second-generation pseudo-fans who join in the fun just to show off. They spent nearly [-] dragon coins to buy the best audience seats, but in the end they could only apply for a refund based on the face price...

Some scalpers also lost a lot because they saw a large number of fans begging for tickets and thought it was profitable. They thought that the wool comes from the sheep anyway, so they had to pay more to buy tickets if they didn't have tickets.

But who would have thought...

Subsequently, the organizer also added relevant compensation plans.

As long as out-of-town fans provide game tickets, valid travel tickets, and accommodation invoices, they can be reimbursed.

But it's still hard to accept for those fans who bought tickets at a premium.

Not long after, Arsenal and Manchester City also made additional compensation to fans on their official websites and social media accounts.

"Arsenal officially confirms that fans who purchased tickets for the ICC International Champions Cup Arsenal VS Manchester City (Empire National Stadium) will receive a refund from the organizer."

"In addition, the team will also select 30 ticket-holding fans from the official accounts of Bibo and Danggeqiu to go to London to watch the 2016th home match against Manchester City in the 2017-30 Premier League season, and have the opportunity to obtain a jersey signed by Martin. The club provides round-trip air tickets, accommodation and VIP tickets for the day's game, and the lottery will be held at 2016:9 on September 1, 20."

Manchester City officials also issued an announcement soon, but they were suspected of plagiarizing Arsenal.

"On the basis of compensation from the organizer, we also provide the fans with more opportunities to get closer to the club to express their gratitude and feedback for the long-term support of the Dragon Country fans."

"Those who purchase tickets for this game can apply to become Manchester City's official members for the 7-31 season for free before 23:59 on July 2016. While enjoying a series of membership benefits, they will also automatically participate in our lottery activities, allowing you to If you have the opportunity to travel to Manchester and choose a home Premier League game, the club will provide 2017 round-trip air tickets, accommodation and same-day tickets."

……

The compensation plan was released, and the fans who bought tickets normally had no complaints, but when they saw the additional compensation given by the teams on both sides of the match, they all became excited.

The officials of the two teams did not specify who the fans must be. They only mentioned ticket holders, which is equivalent to saying that fans who bought the Arsenal VS Manchester City International Champions Cup game can participate in the lottery.

110 packages include air tickets, accommodation and same-day game tickets. The probability is not high, but it’s okay.

What if I become the European Emperor?
Fans who wanted to buy at high prices were particularly depressed, and scalpers who bought at high prices vomited blood.

※※※※※

The International Champions Cup match between Arsenal and Manchester United could not be held due to venue factors. The unprofessionalism of the organizer Lex Sports became the target of criticism from domestic media and fans.

Both sides of the game had detailed plans for pre-season preparations. Arsenal flew back to London on the afternoon of the next day as originally planned to prepare for the last warm-up match before the Community Shield, where they would face a team from the Norwegian Super League at home. Team Viking.

On this day, Arsenal saw very good news.

But for Paris Saint-Germain fans, it can be said to be expected...

The 29-year-old Uruguayan mature forward Cavani, who plays for Paris Saint-Germain, joined for 5500 million euros + 800 million euros in floating terms. The two parties signed a five-year contract.

Arsenal fans were very excited when they saw this news, and Paris Saint-Germain fans called the top management stupid.

Ibrahimovic left on a free transfer, and also sent another top striker Cavani to leave.

How to do the new season?
In fact, the top management of Paris Saint-Germain is also very helpless. Cavani has two years left on his contract and his desire to leave the team is very strong. He has made it clear that he will leave this summer.

With no other option, Paris Saint-Germain's top management quickly introduced Real Madrid forward Jese for 2500 million euros.

Then, an offer of 6000 million euros was made for Inter Milan center Icardi, but Inter Milan rejected it.

……

Arsenal's goalkeepers include Petr Cech, Ospina and Damian Martinez who returned from loan, which means that all three lines have strong reinforcements.

Van Dijk, Kante, Xhaka and Cavani.

Mainstream European media, mainly British media, believe that Arsenal will be particularly terrifying in the new 2016-2017 season, and it is very likely that they will complete a dominant season under the leadership of Martin.

Arsenal fans are very excited now.

I thought that when Kroenke privatized the team, it would continue to be drained like Manchester United. As a result, the direct investment in the first season of delisting was close to [-] million euros, the highest in Europe.

They have already thought about next summer, when it will bloom and bear fruit again!

Beautiful!
The top management of the other five teams in the Premier League Big 6 are under great pressure. Seeing that Arsenal's lineup is getting stronger and stronger, they have already felt the pressure from the media and fans.

Buying more capable players that fit the team's tactics is the basis for competing for the league championship in the 2016-2017 season.

Mourinho and Guardiola, who are the head coaches of Manchester City this summer, Conte, who is the head coach of Chelsea, Tottenham head coach Pochettino, and Liverpool head coach Klopp all have headaches, and they have obviously realized that The 2016-2017 season will be more difficult than imagined.

Mourinho, who was intercepted by Wenger three days late last summer, was particularly upset. If he had known it, he would have discussed his ideals with Martin in private through his agent Mendes... For him, it was really slow. Every step, every step fell behind.

If he had Martin last summer, Mourinho would have absolute confidence that he could stabilize the locker room with results.

pity……

Guardiola, who has coached Bayern for three seasons, is very familiar with Martin. At that time, he was able to win the Bundesliga championship with the cooperation of De Bruyne. Last season, he single-handedly led Arsenal to win various championships. .

The crazy growth in strength made him feel huge pressure sweeping through his body at all times.

※※※※※

On July 7, Cavani, who passed Arsenal's official medical examination, participated in his first training session in Colney.

What surprised many players was that Kanter, who still had a week off, returned to the team early to participate in the team's pre-match training.

Arsenal players, led by Martin, expressed their welcome to the two new teammates.

Of course, there is also the indispensable induction ceremony.

【Sing】.

"I thought Martin's singing was good enough, but I didn't expect N'Golo and Edinson to be even better."

After listening to the whole song, Bellerin's mouth twitched slightly, a bit messy in the wind.

"Better than mine? Then I will sing a song no matter what."

Just when Martin wanted to sing, he was covered by the tall Mertesacker: "Brother, don't talk, we are one of our own."

"That's right, one of our own."

"..."

After the Arsenal players made such a fuss, the slightly shy Kante gradually fell in love with this new championship team.

Martin also took the initiative to take on the important task of integrating Cavani and Kanter into the team.

Head coach Wenger took Martin's performance into consideration and knew it was time to say something to the outside world.

At the end of the training session, assistant coach Bould stopped Martin, who was about to take Van Dijk, Kanter and Cavani to practice more: "Hey Martin, the professor wants to see you for something."

"Okay, Mr. Steve."

Martin nodded lightly, then turned to the three of them and said: "Virgil, N'Golo, Edinson, should I go find the professor first and practice again tomorrow, or...?"

The implication was obvious. The three of them looked at each other and expressed their desire to practice more.

"OK, I'll come as soon as I go."

About five minutes later, Martin arrived at the first team office building at the training base.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Wenger, who was wearing reading glasses, heard the knock on the door and subconsciously said: "Please come in."

Seeing that it was Martin arriving, he stood up with a smile and greeted: "Come on, come on, sit down wherever you want, drink coffee?"

"Hey~ I'll do it myself."

Martin took two disposable water cups from the water dispenser with familiarity.

Wenger didn't pay attention to Martin and sat back at his desk.

The two chatted casually, and Wenger got straight to the point: "Mikel has retired. I want you to be the first captain. Do you have the confidence to do the job?"

"of course."

Martin smiled and took a sip of water.

"Good boy, aren't you surprised at all?"

Wenger asked curiously.

Martin gave a rainbow fart: "The main thing is that every decision you make, Professor, is very heroic, and I have to agree."

"..."

Wenger said angrily: "I will hold a press conference in two days and I will announce you as the first captain. Don't be nervous then."

"It's not like you don't know, I don't even know what nervousness is."

"Too."

After Wenger said what he wanted to say, he changed the topic: "I still have things to do, so it won't affect your extra practice."

"Huh? Let's not chat for a while?"

Martin glanced at the water in the glass.

"No, I'm busy."

"But I haven't finished drinking the water yet."

"You can take it away."

"it's not good?"

"..."

Martin looked at Wenger who was speechless, smiled and waved: "Let's go, professor."

"Stinky boy."

Wenger looked at Martin's back, shook his head and chuckled.

※※※※※

At 7 a.m. local time on July 31, England, Arsenal held a press conference in the Emirates Stadium press conference hall.

More than a hundred European mainstream media, mainly from England, came here early in order to know immediately what was announced at Arsenal's first press conference before the start of the new season.

In addition to coach Arsene Wenger, top star Martin was present.

Seeing the media reporters here, they are all full of expectations.

"The main purpose of holding a press conference today is to inform everyone of the team's decision."

When nearly [-] reporters at the scene heard Wenger say this, they all remained highly focused for fear of missing the big news.

"Starting today, Martin officially becomes the team's first-team captain."

As soon as Wenger finished speaking, there was an uproar at the press conference.

It is precisely because of this that this news is sensational enough.

Arsenal's youngest captains were the legendary Tony Adams and 'Loyal' Fabregas, both 21 years old at the time.

Fabregas also holds the record of being the youngest captain in the Premier League.

(Note: He is the captain, not the youngest person to wear the captain’s armband.)
Martin is currently only 19 years old, nearly four months away from turning 20.

Serving as the captain of Arsenal, he also set the record of being the youngest captain of Arsenal and the youngest captain of the Premier League!

News spreads very fast in the mobile Internet era. As soon as Wenger announced, news that Martin officially became the captain of Arsenal's first team appeared on major social platforms.

【Breaking news! 19 years and 8 months old, Martin!Arsenal and the youngest captain in the Premier League! ! 】

Dragon Kingdom has caused an even greater sensation in the country. The news about the new captain of the Gunners, Martin, has been rising this year.

The most trafficked social platform Bibo also had a hot topic about Martin being the captain of Arsenal in a short period of time.

At this time, the Dragon Kingdom media and fans will naturally not waste the opportunity to ridicule the FA.

Martin was able to lead Arsenal to four crowns and become the youngest captain in the Premier League, but he couldn't join the Dragon Country men's football team?
The big joke of slipping the world!

Most European mainstream media believe that Martin is well-deserved as the captain of Arsenal. He has the best strength of the team and an excellent leadership temperament. He has turned the tide many times and become the backbone of the team.

Such a player is fully capable of serving as captain.

The key is that Martin's attendance rate is extremely high, and he has not suffered a single injury since his debut.

In addition, the on-field position is closer to the referee, and he can argue for the interests of the team at the first opportunity.

Arsenal fans very much support Martin as the team captain because they believe the team will move to new glory under Martin's leadership!
