1339 The Gunner on the Edge of the Abyss

Bolton's lore sent Arsenal completely into the abyss!

Wenger left the Reebok Stadium with a livid face, and he took the responsibility for the loss after the game.

Wenger looked depressed in the post-match press conference, and he finally admitted that the team's situation is very worrying.

"It is true that winning the championship was very slim for us in March. However, we are still working hard for it, but the reality has hit us hard. We have slipped from the ranks of the championship to the situation of holding on to the Champions League It's not where Arsenal are supposed to be, but the reality is that we've lost too many points and it's frustrating for us. We should have had six points this week (Liverpool, Bolton) but We didn't get a single point, this season is really a story!"

Wenger said angrily: "Our players have shown a positive attitude this season. Our players are beyond reproach. If there is really a culprit to be picked, then this person is me. I am leading this team. team."

"We created a lot of chances in this game, but we still couldn't score as many goals, which makes me very dissatisfied. Our team is still immature, and sometimes experience and mentality are very important." Wen Greg finally said.

The flaws of the young team are here, experience and mentality!This can be said to be a cliché for Arsenal.

The standings situation has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Liverpool points to 84 points have already won the championship ahead of schedule.

Manchester United's points reached 70 points and basically locked in the league runner-up position.

Ranked third is Chelsea. After winning this round, they have established an advantage in retaining their Champions League seats, with 65 points.

No.4 is Manchester City, which won this round with Dzeko's goal, leading Arsenal by 63 point with 1 points!

Arsenal's two-game losing streak has seen them slip from the standings to fifth place, still only 62 points.

There are only four rounds left in the league. Whether Arsenal can escape and return to the Champions League is anyone's guess.

Wenger was under a lot of pressure.It's too big to imagine.

Fleet Street also began to bombard Wenger's coaching policy!

"The Times" released a heavy feature predicting that Arsenal will miss the Champions League next season!

"The 19 shots in the game were far higher than the opponent's 12 shots, and the possession rate of 67.2% was more than twice that of the home team Bolton. However, it was such a suppressed and suppressed game. The losing side was Arsenal with absolute advantage in theoretical data!

What's even more shameful is that the opponent scored the lore goal in the 90th minute of the game.

Of course, this kind of "shame" is probably already used to Arsenal, from Sunderland at the beginning of the season.From Newcastle's 4-goal lead to an equalizer, to today's Bolton, the Gunners always concede the ball at the end of the game, until they let themselves go from the championship to the nightmare of falling out of the Champions League!

After losing to Bolton, the Arsenal team led by Arsene Wenger has only achieved an embarrassing record of 7 win, 1 draws and 4 losses in the last 2 rounds of the league.Their position in the standings has also been overtaken by Manchester City!

The nightmare of 5 championships in 0 years has become a reality, and Arsenal's biggest crisis is not that the team misses the championship trophy, but that they will most likely miss the Champions League next season!

From the analysis of the performance of the players, look at Julu's "suicide" performance at the Reebok Stadium tonight, and then look at the god-level performance of Gary Cahill, who was missed in the winter. How does it feel to know Wenger on the sidelines?Such an Arsenal with a broken and incomplete defense line full of holes.How to compete with teams like Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea?

This point is in a newly published Premier League coach transfer spending list and money burning list.We can see the clues.On this list, Mark Hughes, who was the coach of Manchester City at the time, ranked first with an average burn of 1.46 million pounds a season. There are many top ten players like Mourinho, Benitez, Ancelotti With famous coaches like Mancini, the "burning money" of these famous coaches also objectively reflects such as Manchester City.What Chelsea, Liverpool and more teams put in, spend and spend.That is a symbol of wealthy families burning money.

However, in the top 15 of this list, it is difficult for us to find Arsenal professor Arsene Wenger.Looking carefully, the Frenchman was ranked 18th in the "Money Burning List", alongside coaches like Sunderland's McCarthy and Bruce.

Of course, there are even more shabby statistics. Since Wenger coached Arsenal for 15 seasons, the average investment per season is only 168 million pounds!This is almost equal to one-ninth of what Manchester City invested in Mark Hughes!

Close to one percent of the investment!A hundred times!

With such a low investment and such a huge disparity, it is no wonder that Arsenal will encounter the embarrassment of 5 championships in 0 years.

After all, Wenger is not a god. How can he compete with the giants of the Premier League just by relying on his "touching stone"?

It is true that in today's world football, spending money may not necessarily bring heavy trophies one after another, but conversely, if you don't spend money, it can be said that it is impossible to win a championship.

For example, Barcelona has a strong youth training system, and its own "blood-making" ability is the best in football. It still invests heavily every year: it bought Villa last summer, and introduced Ibrahimovic and Ziglinski the year before.

In the past two years, Liverpool has introduced Qin Xiong, Suarez, Meireles, Johnson, Baines and other generals, spending more than [-] million pounds, and they have won three heavyweight championship trophies.

Chelsea spent 7500 million pounds in the winter transfer period, and finally rebounded strongly in the middle and late stages of the league...

Needless to say, the rise of Manchester City.

So, why is only Arsenal slow to do it?

Is it really financially strapped because of the construction of the Emirates Stadium a few years ago?

'The only thing I can say is that the club is in a healthy financial position and we can afford to spend big if we need to.But the average age of our team is 23, why do we have to make major changes and buy people after the season? Wenger's words can be said to have chilled the hearts of Arsenal fans a lot. Since the finances are healthy and they don't want to buy people to strengthen their strength, will the Gunners' road to no championship continue like this?

When Manchester City has already threatened Arsenal's Champions League qualification, if Arsenal does not adjust their team building strategy, then next season, next season, if they still miss the Champions League, how will Arsenal's competitiveness improve?

Will stars like Cesc Fabregas and Van Persie still stay in the team? "(To be continued~^~)
