Chapter 241 Sunderland

"Head, I think the team should solve the problem of defenders first." After all, Li Shou is still a goalkeeper, and it is precisely because he is a goalkeeper that Li Shou knows how tricky the person standing in front of him is.

"We are trying to find a way to solve this problem," said Li Shou, who Wenger did not hide it.

"Head, I think I, the goalkeeper, are the most qualified to speak. Although I don't have the vision of a scout, I can see the most clearly when I stand in the position of a defender," said Li Shou.

"Oh, then do you have any candidates to introduce it?" Wenger asked.

"I still have the same answer, Celtics' Dutch central defender Van Dijk, I believe his arrival can solve many problems in the back line." Li Shou recommended Van Dijk to Wenger a few months ago.

"Do you know that Dutchman?" Wenger asked with a frown.

"I don't know each other" Li Shou shook his head.

"Head, are you suspicious of me?" Although Li Shou reacted slowly, he immediately thought of what Wenger said.

"It's hard not to make people doubt you recommend this." Faced with such a direct response to Wenger, Li Shou really didn't know what to say.

"Head, I am standing as a goalkeeper, an arsenal player to recommend you, and I just recommend it, and it is yours to make the final decision," Li Shou said finally.

The two of them did not continue on this topic afterwards. As for Li Shou taking the free kick, Li Shou did not refuse, but he would take the penalty depending on the situation and would not play blindly.

After reaching a consensus, Arsenal will focus on preparing for the ninth round of the league. In this round, Arsenal will visit the Stadium of Light to challenge Sunderland, who is currently ranked lower in the standings.

The media and fans are still optimistic about Arsenal in this game, but the same was true in the last game, so Arsenal needs to be careful.

At the same time, this is Li Shou's first return to the league. With Li Shou's ability, it is probably not easy for Sunderland to break through Arsenal's goal. In addition, Li Shou's arrogant personality, he definitely does not want to be scored after being suspended and returned.

Although Arsenal made sufficient preparations before the game, Sunderland, who played at home after the game started, took the initiative and tested Li Shou's concentration with a long shot in the second minute of the game.

Barkley passed back with his heel, and Rodwell shot a long shot with a very high level in the penalty area. The ball went straight to the dead corner, but was eventually blocked by Li Shou.

By the way, Rodwell, who completed this long shot, was another story of hurting Zhongyong. It was wrong, or rather, it was a genius who was destroyed by Moyes.

Because Rodwell was a defender at the beginning and was even known as the next Leo Ferdinand, but after entering the Everton first team, Moyes turned it into a midfielder.

The player's own talent is very important, and the training of the head coach is also very important. Rodwell is a typical genius who is delayed by the head coach.

Three minutes later, Sunderland once again broke into Arsenal's hinterland, and the completed shot was Rodwell and a long shot outside the penalty area. However, this time his shot did not threaten the goal guarded by Li Shou because his shot hit Mertesack's arm.

"Punishment" Sunderland fans immediately put pressure on the referee in the stands of the Bright Stadium, but the referee did not really award Sunderland a penalty because Mertesack did not make any mistake this time. This handball was completely Rodwell hit Mertesack's arm, not Mertesack took the initiative to block it.

There is a fundamental difference between the two. If Mertesack takes the initiative to block, he will definitely give a penalty kick, and even Mertesack will have to take cards, but Mertesack just just the opponent's shot just hit Mertesack's arm, so that's fine.

Sunderland fans naturally could not accept the referee's penalty. For a moment, booed the referee's penalty, but Sunderland fans could not change the referee's penalty no matter how much they booed.

As the saying goes, if you survive a disaster, you will have good luck. Arsenal's backside was five minutes later. In the tenth minute of the game, under Sanchez's forced, Brown made a mistake in the pass.

The gift given by the former Manchester United defender was naturally a smile as his former rival Arsenal. Griezmann seized this opportunity, turned around and chased the ball, and then dunked the last defensive player to face the goalkeeper.

Facing Sunderland's goalkeeper, Griezmann calmly pushed the ball and shot a long shot. The ball passed through Manone's fingertips and finally flew into the dead corner of the goal.

"1:0~~~ It seems that after Li came back, everything began to develop in a good direction." In fact, it was not only Li Shou who returned in this game. Arteta also returned from injury and started.

But who said Li Shou is now one of the most popular players in the Premier League? Arteta's veteran's popularity is simply not comparable to Li Shou. Now the entire Premier League is waiting for Li Shou to lose the first goal.

Besides, Li Shou's return is visible to Arsenal's defense improvement. Although Li Shou did not save a lot in the mid-week Champions League game, he had two wonderful clearances.

If it were Ospina, it would be better to lose two, but at least one would lose one. This has been fully proven in the previous rounds. Ospina is just an ordinary goalkeeper, while Li Shou is the goalkeeper who can create miracles.

The game started over and Arsenal began to gradually control the ball at his feet. Sunderland wanted to counterattack, but unfortunately Arsenal did not give them a chance.

However, Arsenal is still the same old problem. Although he controls the ball, his efficiency is extremely low. Whether it is Velbeck's shot in the penalty area or Cazorla's long shot outside the penalty area, he has never been able to expand his lead.

Even in the forty-two minute, there was something that made people cover their faces. Welbeck pretended to fall. To be honest, Welbeck's acting skills were obviously not as good as that. Not to mention cheating the referee, I guess I could not even cheat the ten-year-old child.

In terms of self-cultivation of fake falls, Weirbeck still needs to see his former seniors. Although Manchester United no longer has fake falls, at least the acting skills of fake falls at that time were much better than Weirbeck.

Otherwise, you can go and see Real Madrid's arch rival Barcelona. Professor Bu's fake fall is also OK. Although he could not escape the live broadcast, at least he deceived the referee.

Velbeck's fake fall was just a small episode in the game, and after Velbeck's fake fall, Arsenal expanded its lead, with a one-stop service from Sanchez on the wing.

Brown once again became the background board for Arsenal's goal. Sanchez waded through Brown and rushed into the penalty area, facing Sunderland goalkeeper Sanchez shot hard from the far corner.

Today's background is not only the former Manchester United defender, but also Arsenal's own former player. Sunderland goalkeeper Manone played for Arsenal before transferring to Sunderland.

2:0, the game almost declared the outcome of the game before the end of the first half.
