Chapter 1296 The Belated Buffon
At the end of the warm-up match, Arsenal beat Naples 4:1.
There were no surprises in the whole game, it was a crushing game.
Although Naples played a few good counterattacks in the second half, this was based on the fact that Arsenal's main players were all off the field, from which they could also feel the gap between themselves and the top European teams.
This made Naples, who is expected to be in the Champions League this season, a little stage fright before the start of the season.
Ancelotti is not very satisfied with the performance of Naples.
At the same time, he was even more dissatisfied with the warm-up match plan decided by the club. This warm-up match was completely unilaterally notified by the club and they were forced to accept it.
In Ancelotti's view, Arsenal is not a suitable opponent for Naples.
Playing against Arsenal too early will only lead to frustration for the players.
Just like now.
As for the current situation, Ancelotti is also very helpless. He can only organize the team to leave quickly, hoping that after they leave the land of London, it will be like this game is forgotten.
Naples left overnight, while Arsenal completed the last warm-up game before the season.
Of course, strictly speaking, the Community Shield Cup is also a 'warm-up match'.
However, based on Manchester City's urine, they don't think Manchester City will let them win so easily.
Last season, Arsenal took three titles from Manchester City, the Carabao Cup, the FA Cup and the league title.
Last season, Arsenal also defeated Manchester City by one point and won the league championship trophy.
It can be said that in the past two seasons, Manchester City has fallen in front of Arsenal, a stumbling block. If they cannot beat Arsenal, they will not be able to mention any championships.
For Manchester City, Arsenal has become a thorn in their hearts, and it always hurts when they think about it.
And there is only one way to pull out this barb, and that is to defeat the opponent head-on.
Therefore, Manchester City will not give up any chance to beat Arsenal.
And Arsenal will not play those little tricks with Manchester City, or underestimate their opponents.
There are still five days until the opening of the Community Shield.
During this period of time, apart from rehearsing tactics against Manchester City, Arsenal still focused on running-in and familiarity.
Although they performed well in the warm-up match, this does not mean that they can also perform in the game.
For this reason, they need a stronger mutual relationship so that they can form a tacit cooperation in the game.
At the same time, on July 7th, Arsenal ushered in a late teammate.
When Lucky was called to Mourinho's office, he saw Buffon who had a good chat with Mourinho.
There was a melancholy smile on his handsome and vicissitudes of face.
Wearing off-white trousers and a black POLO shirt, it doesn't look like he's here for training, but for a business event.
Buffon also saw Lucky, he got up and walked over to warm up, stretched out his hand and said: "During the game, you left a deep impression on me, on the night you were eliminated in the final, I was full of brains. It is the picture of being defeated by you."
"It's an honor to work with you, Captain!"
Buffon pulled his body very low, and greeted Lucky very cheerfully.
Facing the enthusiastic Buffon, Lucky also extended his hand with a smile. After the two greeted each other, Mourinho asked Lucky to lead them to the locker room.
Along the way, Buffon also looked at Arsenal curiously.
Lucky also looked at Buffon's outfit.
After finally confirming that Buffon did not bring any training equipment, Lucky reminded; "Today is the training day, where is your equipment?"
Hearing this, Buffon waved his hand and said: "My ankle is injured. I talked to the coach to rest for a while. Besides. I don't want to hold you back."
Lucy had a weird expression.
Buffon pointed at Lucky and smiled, "Just kidding!"
Le Kai gave a dry laugh, the joke was not funny.
Soon, Lucky led Buffon into the locker room.
The name Buffon is very popular in football. He is a big brother player in terms of fame and qualifications.
Especially at the age of 41 and still insisting on professional football, this in itself is a very remarkable move.
Buffon was still enthusiastic. He introduced himself to his teammates like a peacock spreading its tail.
His words are humorous and approachable, and he quickly narrowed the relationship with his teammates.
He even joked to Martinez: "I'm not competing with the starter, you just need to take me to win the championship."
The carefree Martinez patted his chest and said no problem.
Others laughed.
Only Le Kai has always had a weird expression.
However, he didn't care too much about anything, and soon entered the training session.
Buffon is injured, for this reason, he cannot participate in training.
But it's all coming, and he is also helping the goalkeeper coach to train Martinez.
Buffon is getting older and slower to react.
But his experience is full, which can give Martinez a lot of help.
The other players are carrying out their own training programs, and everyone is training in an orderly manner.
At the end of the day's training, everyone washed up in the locker room, changed into casual clothes and left.
Le Kai was the last to leave because he had to lock the door.
"Aren't you going?"
Seeing Buffon sitting in front of the locker, Le Kai couldn't help reminding him.
Buffon got up and smiled, "I'm going to see Mr. Mourinho later, you can go first."
Le Kai sighed and said, "But I want to lock the door."
Buffon was puzzled; "Isn't it the equipment administrator's job to lock the door?"
Lucky shrugged: "Mr. Paul likes to sleep late, so I am responsible for locking the doors of the locker room and the equipment room."
"That's it"
Buffon showed a trace of thought, and said immediately; "Alright then, I'll wait for him in the office building."
Le Kai nodded, watched Buffon leave, then locked the doors of the locker room and equipment room, and then drove away.
After 10 minutes, the equipment management room.
"Do you want the keys to the equipment room and the locker room?"
Paul Johnson looked at the restrained Buffon in surprise.
On the first day he came to the training base, he asked for the keys to the locker room and the equipment room, which he did not expect.
"I need to do some training, and I may practice very late, and I'm sorry to bother you, so you can give me a key, or I'll go to make one, so that you can relax."
Buffon laughed dryly.
Paul glanced at Buffon up and down, and said, "There are only two keys to the locker room and the equipment room, one is with me, and the other is with Kay."
Buffon: "."
Paul: "So you don't want Kay or your teammates to know about this, right?"
Buffon looked helpless; "I hope you can agree."
Paul took out a bunch of keys from his trouser pocket, took out two of them and put them on the table, saying: "I have no reason to refuse you, and I also believe that you will not make some silly pranks."
Buffon immediately took the key, and then said with joy: "Thank you very much."
Paul waved his hand and said, "A kind reminder, if you want to practice more in the morning, it's best before 7 o'clock. Kai will arrive at the training base on time at 7 o'clock."
Buffon was surprised: "So early?"
Paul nodded affirmatively: "It's so early!"
"Okay, I see." Buffon nodded before turning and leaving.
Back home, I went to the underground parking lot first, took out the equipment bag from the trunk, then rushed to the locker room to change the jersey, and then went to the equipment room to move various equipment into the training ground, and then started my extra training time .
In the evening sunset, in the empty Arsenal first-team training ground, there was a bang bang.
There was the sound of hitting the ball, and there was also the dull sound of the body falling to the ground.
The red glow of the sunset stretched the shadows of Buffon and the goal.
Bang bang bang.
Rhythmic rescue sounds, occasionally mixed with heavy breathing.
sweat dripping
Buffon repeated the same saving action again and again.
"Too slow! Come again!"
"There is a problem with the shape of the hand."
"Not enough kicks!"
"It must be sent across."
"It's too high!"
Buffon's self-reflection and summary again and again.
In the saves again and again, he constantly corrected his actions.
And what he pursues is not transcendence, but chasing the former self.
