  Chapter 761 Young Guards

   Lucky clearly rejected Paris Saint-Germain's transfer invitation.

  It is good to have more money, but Lucky pays more attention to the competitiveness and teamwork.

  Paris Saint-Germain always gave him the feeling that something was wrong.

   And he also knows that he can't make up for this, so Lucky still feels more comfortable at Arsenal.

  The most important thing is that he is already familiar with everything here and doesn't want to play in another place.

  As I said before, Lucky doesn’t play football for money.

   This is certainly a manifestation of value, but with Arsenal paying enough attention to themselves, Lucky has no idea of ​​​​transfers at all.

  However, it seems that Paris Saint-Germain has not given up. After getting Lekai's rejection, they began to make an offer to Arsenal again.

  Arsenal's approach to Lucky's offer is extremely uniform, which is to directly reject it.

  They don't even look at the amount.

   For Arsenal; Lucky is priceless.

  Paris Saint-Germain was shut down by both sides, and they couldn't find a breakthrough, so they could only slow down this matter and focus on other people.

   For this reason, Lucky’s side just stopped, and Barcelona’s backyard started to catch fire again.

  Paris Saint-Germain is chasing Neymar fiercely, and it is different from Lucky's clear attitude.

  Neymar's ambiguous attitude also made this game confusing.

  As for Mbappe in Monaco, there is almost no difficulty. With 100 million euros thrown over, Monaco can't wait to send Mbappe away directly.

   After all, for this type of team, they urgently need funds to settle in and run the club.

  Selling players, and selling players at a high price, is obviously the most appropriate way to profit.

  At present, Arsenal is still ranked fourth in the standings in the league and has entered the Champions League qualification circle.

  However, they are five points away from Manchester City, which has the highest points in the league. It is difficult for Arsenal to catch up without Manchester City losing, which also means that it is difficult for them to compete for the league championship this season.

  Of course there are opportunities.

  For example, when Manchester City was upset.

  But besides Manchester City, there are Chelsea and Tottenham in front of them, which is a bit unrealistic.

   After all, during this period of time, every team is going all out, and it is extremely difficult to overtake at this time.

  Arsenal also knows this problem, so in the case of stabilizing the league, they will focus more on the Europa League.

  In the upcoming semi-finals, Arsenal will face Ajax, a traditional giant in Europe.

  Ajax is a traditional giant in Europe and the top team in Dutch football, but with the promotion of commercialization, it has suffered the most impact.

   Player turnover is their biggest problem. Even if they are working hard to create talented players, they can't stop the opponent from leaving.

   This season was kicked out of the Champions League.

  However, their performance in the Europa League was even better, and they played even more comfortably.

   Young players such as Ziyech, Traore, Klaassen, De Jong, and De Ligt in the team have attracted much attention.

  Ajax has always maintained the image of a young guard.

  Their overall team lineup is extremely young. Sometimes even though they look a little inexperienced, once these young people feel their way, they will be a difficult team to deal with.

  For Arsenal, they need to find a way to contain the opponent's performance.

   On May 2, the Arsenal team left London under the leadership of Mourinho and headed for Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

  They will play the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals.

   They will face each other at home in Ajax.

  Arsenal's morale is high, and the outstanding performance in the last few games has made the players and coaches feel extremely confident.

  On the other hand, Arsenal's performance put Ajax under great pressure.

   Facing the menacing Arsenal, Ajax also became extremely troublesome when arranging tactics.

   But these are basically the state of the coaches, and the players are extremely relaxed.

  Many Ajax players want to jump out of the Dutch football stage and join the five major leagues with their outstanding performance in this game.

   And Arsenal, as a very powerful team in the recent European war, is naturally one of their choices.

  As I said before, Ajax can't keep young players. These players are full of thoughts about how to leave.

   After all, like the former captain of Arsenal, Vermaelen joined Arsenal through the Ajax stage and became the captain of Arsenal all the way.

  This is a visible promotion channel, which is naturally very attractive to these young players.

  May 3rd, Cruyff Stadium.

   This is the stadium named after Cruyff, a Dutch football legend. As the home stadium of Ajax, the football market here is extremely hot, almost full of fans and spectators.

   And when the Ajax and Arsenal buses arrived, the fans were also extremely enthusiastic.

  No matter which side it is, they all sent cheers.

   It feels weird.

  Arsenal ushered in cheers on the road for the first time.

   But compared to Ajax, their cheers are less.

   But it is good to have.

  At the same time, Ajax's locker room.

  Head coach Boss is preparing to announce the starting lineup.

  He could see the expectant eyes of the teenagers.

   Obviously none of them want to miss this stage where they can express themselves.

  Especially players like Ziyech, De Jong, De Ligt, Traore and others.

  The final starting list is announced.

  Ajax (4-3-3):

  Goalkeeper: Onana.

  Defenders: Tate, Sanchez, De Ligt, Riwald.

  Midfielders: Klaassen, De Jong, Ziyech.

  Forwards: Traore, Dolberg. Eunice.

   Once this lineup is lined up, it doesn't feel like playing a game, but an exhibition of young players.

  The oldest two are Klaassen and Ziyech, who are only 24 years old.

   And among them are 18-year-old teenagers like De Ligt

  The average age is 21 years old!

   This is definitely the Young Guards in the true sense.

  Looking at the all-colored young people on the opposite side, Wilshere suddenly couldn't help sighing.

   “I feel old!”

   Not only Wilshere, but also people like Hummels.

  Especially against De Ligt.

   "He is playing in the semi-finals of the Europa League at the age of 18, what are we doing at the age of 18?"

   Jimenez shook his head and smiled wryly.

   Le Kai suddenly said in front; "I am 18 years old and playing in the Champions League!"

   Jimenez: "."

   Le Kai turned his head and smiled; "Okay, the opponents are young people, but we are more experienced, and our cooperation will be better. Let us teach these young people a good lesson!"

   "Teach them a lesson!"

   "Look at mine!"

"come on!"

  Arsenal players are gearing up and fighting high.

  The two sides entered the field, and Ajax took the lead to kick off.

  Ajax is adhering to the Netherlands' total attack and defense tactics, and the impact and defense are very active.

   Therefore, Arsenal did not want to play this fast-paced game with the opponent.

   After all, the other party is young and definitely has an advantage in physical fitness.

  Arsenal should make more use of their own experience to win the game.

   Beep! !

  With the sound of the whistle, Ajax took the lead to kick off.

   After all, it is a youth team, and they looked frizzy at the beginning of the game.

   After less than 3 minutes of observation, they couldn't help but attack.

  Klaassen wanted to show off his long-pass footwork, a long pass was passed, and Lucky appeared at the landing point.

   Traore wants to compete for the top, but he is not Lucky's opponent at all in terms of physical confrontation.

   Lucky easily controlled the ball and passed it to his teammates.

   After controlling the ball, Arsenal did not rush to counterattack, but further eroded the opponent's midfield rhythm.

   Lucky knows how to suppress the midfield.

  Once the rhythm of the midfield is lost, it will be fatal for a young team like Ajax.

  However, Ajax is not easy to deal with. The opponent is based on tactics, coupled with young hard work, and keeps pressing in the midfield.

  The so-called high position press is born out of Holland's total attack and total defense tactics.

  They naturally know how to carry out this kind of pressing.

  However, Arsenal left Lucky and Wilshere's ball-handling ability completely worthy of the opponent.

   Although the pass is not smooth, it is very stable.

  Ajax robbed for a while, but found that they had wasted their physical energy in vain, and failed to create any threat.

   The second update is here!
