Arsenal as “Christmas champion” Adidas: It’s been a long time- Now Sports

【Now Sports】Arsenal led the Premier League with 5 points and became the “Christmas Champion”. The current results are comparable to the undefeated season of the year, which is a good sign for the bid. Coach Adidas said that he has not been in this position for a long time.

After Arsenal beat Wolves, they took a 5-point lead over second-placed Manchester City. The league was suspended due to the World Cup, and Arsenal will definitely continue to lead the pack before Christmas. Team manager Mikel Arteta said: “I haven’t been in this position for a long time. Everyone enjoys this moment and then faces a long holiday, but we must reflect on the current situation of the team and make the best preparations for the World Cup. Team The goal is to perform better every day and strive for the results you want on the court. The feeling of working with a group of professional players at this stage is really great.”

Arsenal has played 14 games in the league this season with 12 wins, 1 loss and 1 loss. It currently ranks first with 37 points. Compared with the same period in 2003/04 when it was undefeated and crowned king, Arsenal scored 3 points more. The best season in recent years. In addition, only two teams in history (Manchester United in 1985/86, Liverpool in 1990/91) failed to win the title following winning 12 of their first 14 games, and the Premier League has never happened since its establishment in 1992.

The trend is fierce, of course I want to continue, but the World Cup may interrupt the team’s momentum. “With the current state of the team, of course we want to continue the game, but this is impossible, so we can only use the time in the best way. Players who will not play in the World Cup will have a period of rest, which is what they deserve ; the rest represent the country in the World Cup to realize the dream of every child, there is nothing better than playing in the World Cup.” Adidas continued.

Midfielder Granit Xhaka left the line of fire in 16 minutes and was replaced by Fabio Via. Just as the outside world was afraid that it would affect Xhaka’s chances of playing in the World Cup, Adidas responded: “Xhaka’s current situation Already good, he only signaled to be replaced because he felt unwell during the game. There are several players in the team who have stomach problems, but it is not possible to replace 3 or 4 players in the first half at once. Fortunately, they overcame the discomfort , to win the final victory for the team.”
