Chapter 771
"Coach, I understand that we want to build a training building, but will there really be the words 'Lin Chen Building' on the training building?"
"Although I don't understand Chinese, I still know the word Lin Chen. In recent years, Lin Chen has almost become the most frequently appearing Chinese name in European football!"
On January 1, when Arsenal’s new training building appeared on the design drawing, everyone could see the four words "Lin Chen Building" above the training building. Some players did not recognize the building, but they must recognize Lin Chen.
Arsenal's young coach Arteta has no choice. Many clubs are now updating their training facilities and enhancing their training capabilities. In Europe, Arsenal cannot fall behind.
But the best training building brand is the one endorsed by Lin Chen, so Arsenal can only accept it.
In the upcoming Carabao Cup semi-final, Arsenal will face Liverpool.
After Arteta came to Arsenal, he played a tactic that was somewhat similar to Guardiola's at Manchester City, but not exactly the same.
Some people say that Arsenal is now playing like a small Manchester City, while others think that Arteta's overall tactical style is not obvious enough, causing many fans to wonder whether Arsenal should play a passing and controlling style.
But in Arsenal's current team lineup, there are many outstanding players, such as left winger Martinelli, right winger Saka, Ben White who can play as a central defender or a full-back, and the young center forward Nketiah!
After Arteta came to Arsenal, the first thing he did was to buy a lot of young players, including Gabriel as a central defender and Ramsdale as a goalkeeper. They are the kind of players Arteta wants, young and willing to listen to his tactics.
Although Arteta did not win the support of all Arsenal fans in his first season.
Because since Wenger left, all Arsenal fans will compare any coach who coaches Arsenal with Wenger, but you have to know that that is Wenger!
How many coaches can compare with Wenger?
Arteta has been following Lin Chen's news these days, and he saw that Lin Chen took on new endorsements, became the most popular player in the Premier League, and continued to score goals for Liverpool.
Arteta doesn't want to see Lin Chen play in the Carabao Cup semi-final, although Liverpool will definitely let Lin Chen play.
Everything Arteta has done these days revolves around how to use the existing lineup to defend Lin Chen.
Over the past six seasons, this has become a question that all teams across Europe have been thinking about.
In the end, Arteta confirmed the starting lineup for the semi-finals, with Tierney as left-back, Gabriel and Ben White as central defenders, and Cedric Soares as right-back.
Goalkeeper Ramsdale, left midfielder Martinelli, right midfielder Saka, midfielders Xhaka and Lokonga, Nketiah and Lakadette as double strikers!
The name heard most often during Arsenal training was Lin Chen, not Lin, but Lin Chen.
Arteta has always used his full name to emphasize Lin Chen’s role!
“Gabriel, if it was Lin Chen just now, if you were a step slower in stealing the ball, you wouldn’t have to steal the ball again, because Lin Chen would have taken the initiative to enter the penalty area to look for you.”
“You can’t guard him in the paint because you can’t foul in the paint.”
"Tierney, you are very fast, so if Lin Chen suddenly sprints, you can pay attention to his position and follow him."
"Ben White, remember to remind Xhaka at any time and tell him when Lin Chen will make a run."
"Xhaka, you are the player who has played against Lin Chen the most times in this Arsenal team."
"You started playing against Lin Chen six seasons ago, and have been playing against him until now. Can you tell all the Arsenal players how you adjusted your mentality every time you faced Lin Chen in these seasons?"
