After the last incident, Lucky's position in the locker room changed quietly.

Of course, this does not mean that his words carry much weight.

But in the end, no one wanted to mess with him.

After all, the lessons of the past are right in front of us.

And from the coaching staff's handling of the situation, it is obvious what position Lucky holds in their hearts.

Without some trivial troubles, Lucky's training was put back on the agenda.

During this period, he was training very hard.

After nearly three months, my weight has reached nearly 81 kilograms and I have gained sufficient flexibility.

The most prominent change is the core. The strong core and balance ability make Lucky a meat grinder in the midfield.

Even the main players of the first team began to deliberately avoid Lekai when attacking.

This guy's terrifying tackling and intercepting abilities have reached an almost abnormal level due to the bonus of his physical confrontation attributes.

At Arsenal now, as long as Luka plays, he and Ramsey form the two left and right defensive midfielders to protect the defenders and make them feel safe.

However, the current main defensive midfielder is still Song, so they cannot express their praise for Lucky.

But these first-team main players have already started to make comparisons silently in their hearts.

Everything is going in the right direction for Arsenal.

It seems like everything I experienced before is slowly being diluted.

In the league, they beat Chelsea 5-3 away from home.

The victory over the Blues greatly boosted the morale of Arsenal players.

What’s more, General Fan showed his extraordinary power and made a hat trick to show the true qualities of the dean.

Based on the victory in this game, many Arsenal fans have great expectations for the future.

And in this atmosphere, the game came to the 11th round.

Thanks to Arsenal's excellent performance, their ranking in the standings has also soared during this period.

Now it has reached the seventh position in the league and is making a strong momentum.

Many people believe that Arsenal will return to the top of the standings.

This is a game between Arsenal and West Bromwich Albion at home.

The two teams have met 124 times in history, with Arsenal winning 60, drawing 29 and losing 35, scoring 216 and conceding 163, which is a clear advantage.

And Arsenal fans think so too.

For this reason, the Emirates Stadium was particularly lively that day.

Since November, the weather has gradually started to get colder.

Lucky has already put on long johns and a thick down jacket.

Even though he is from Northeast China, it is precisely because he is from Northeast China that he understands the importance of keeping warm.

On the contrary, Billy was dressed lightly, wearing a denim jacket over a short-sleeved shirt, hot pants, and flip-flops, walking down the street with a bottle of wine in his hand.

The clothes worn by fans on the street are also polarized.

Either they are wrapped up like Lucky, or they are topless like Billy.

Of course, this can only be blamed on the awkward weather.

This time, they took the subway instead of driving.

Billy said that if he came alone, he would drive, but as a newcomer, Lucky needed to feel the atmosphere.

Yes!

Very strong atmosphere.

The entire subway station seemed to be surrounded by Arsenal fans, especially at Arsenal Station or Holloway Road Station, where there were large numbers of fans gathered.

You don't even need to know how to get around the Emirates Stadium to be pushed by the crowd.

On the way to the Emirates Stadium you will see many vendors and shops.

They sell jerseys, scarves, autographs and even trophies.

Anyway, there are all kinds of them.

In the middle, Lucky was taken over and asked if he wanted to buy a jersey.

Please, I have my own jersey!

As soon as Lekai left, he saw some people who looked like his compatriots gathered in front of the hawker shop and began to excitedly choose jerseys and scarves. They were probably tourists who came here for the "pilgrimage" for the first time.

In fact, Lekai also wanted to wear a jersey so that he would appear to be closer to the organization.

But Billy said that such formalities are useless and real Arsenal fans would not wear jerseys or scarves.

Therefore, Kodak still gave up. After all, it felt weird to wear a jersey over a down jacket.

Billy has been drinking and seems to be getting drunk. Lucky tries to stop him, but the guy says that one needs to be slightly tipsy to best feel the atmosphere when watching a game.

Lucky didn't know if this was Billy's excuse, but he didn't try to stop him.

Finally it was time to enter the stadium, and following the crowd, Lucky saw the brand new Emirates Stadium.

This is Lucky's first time here.

The stadium is oval in shape, with white and blue as the main colors. There is a huge Arsenal logo engraved on it at the entrance.

Huge propaganda posters can be seen everywhere!

There are individual pictorials of each player, as well as overall pictorials.

General Fan is the most prominent one, and he is located right in the center.

The huge poster shows Van Persie's back.

With his arms wide open, the number 10 on his back holds up Arsenal's offensive banner.

Of course, not every first-team starter has a separate picture. If they are not well-known enough or loved by the home fans, the club will not post the picture.

So far, there are only a few.

They are Van Persie, Walcott, Vermaelen and Szczesny !

Lucky stood in the crowd, looking up at the huge poster representing Van Persie, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.

After watching for a long time, Lucky stepped into the stadium at Billy's urging.

The stands are mainly red, which is also the main tone of Arsenal.

People kept pouring in to fill the vacant positions.

Soon, the entire Emirates Stadium's 60,000-seat seats were all filled.

It was also from this moment that the Emirates Stadium became no longer so ordinary.

The flag waving in the air was Arsenal's team flag, flying up and down, creating waves of sound.

The players haven't been seen yet, but the cheering songs have already started.

【This is Arsenal, Arsenal Football Club! 】

We are the greatest team ever.

【The world has never seen it.】

【We have Robin van Persie! 】

[Arsenal, pass the ball...]

【We love you Arsenal, we love! 】

【Arsenal we love you! 】

【Vermaelen! 】

Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal...

We pay you benefits...

Thomas Vermaelen...

【He is better than Gael Clichy! 】

【Let's forget those bad things! 】

Finally, the whole audience roared!

Come on you gunners!

At this moment, Lucky felt an electric current running from the soles of his feet straight to his forehead.

It’s not that Lucky has never played professionally, but to be honest, the atmosphere in the Premier League is incomparable to that of the Portuguese Super League.

Even Lekai, who was sitting in the stands, felt his blood boiling, not to mention his teammates who were about to play.

Lucky and the other two sat at the front of the lower level.

Arsenal do not have an official 'die-hard stand', similar to the Liverpool Kop.

Die-hard Arsenal fans love being on the corner so they can interact with the players when they celebrate a goal!

In order to take care of Lucky, Billy chose this front seat.

With the current price of Arsenal tickets, the three front seats must have cost a lot of money.

The competition will begin soon.

When players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel.

The fans at the scene started booing West Brom players again.

The deafening boos seemed to want to swallow them up in one gulp. In this kind of home atmosphere, they felt weak in the knees.

Lucky licked his dry lips, he felt like he was about to catch fire.

He wished he could go on the court right now, kick Song back to the bench, and appear on the field himself.

The competition began in an exciting atmosphere.

Arsenal players did not let the game become boring and chose to attack the opponent after the kick-off.

Lekai could feel that these guys played more vigorously and energetically than during training.

Sure enough, in the 22nd minute, General Fan scored against the opponent.

After scoring the goal, General Fan came to the corner area and slid on the ground.

And the crazy Arsenal fans were also cheering and shouting.

Lekai was in the stands. He could feel the shouts, screams and cheers coming from all directions, intertwined together, like a volcanic eruption, making his scalp tingle.

Even Kodak was moved by the emotions at this moment and joined the fans in cheering!

Lucky has never liked Arsenal, and he is not a so-called Gunners fan!

But since becoming a Gunner, he feels that he has begun to integrate into the club.

Shout for victory!

Feel sad about failure!

At this moment, Lucky is closely linked to Arsenal.

The hearts of both seem to be intertwined together, inseparable!

After the first goal, the second goal followed closely.

In the 39th minute, Vermaelen, who had been resting for a season, headed the ball into the goal from a corner kick.

Vermaelen's goal made Arsenal fans even more excited.

Even the commentator on the scene was shouting.

"Thomas Vermaelen! Forever Vermaelen! He is the cornerstone of Arsenal's defense! He can also attack!"
