Chapter 86 Szczesny's Bad Habits

In the evening, Arsenal players gathered together to discuss the next day's game.

The TV was broadcasting pre-match warm-up and player interviews.

Of course, Arsenal players couldn't understand.

"Who can tell them what he is talking about?"

Walcott pointed at the TV and said depressedly.

On TV, Dortmund player Reus was saying something with a serious face, but they couldn't understand German at all.

Podolski, who was standing by, acted as a translator.

"He said that Arsenal is a strong opponent, and they will face tomorrow's game with their best side."

"When the reporter asked him how he evaluated Kai, Reus said that Kai is an excellent midfielder, and he always feels great pressure in the confrontation with Kai. Although we only had one loss in the group stage, he was suppressed in the individual matchup!"

"And Dortmund is the last hope of the Bundesliga, they will win the game and enter the semi-finals!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but curl their lips.

"We are the ones who will advance to the final!"

"He is daydreaming!"

"I admit that Dortmund is strong, but we are stronger!"

The Arsenal players disagreed with Reus's view. Obviously, as opponents, they still think they are stronger, and they will not say anything discouraging before the game.

Lekai did not speak. He sat in the middle, holding a mobile phone in his hand and looking through Dortmund's recent games.

After entering the end of the season, Dortmund's state has become even better.

In particular, Lewandowski and Reus seem to have produced some kind of chemical reaction. The connection between the two has not only increased, but also been very effective.

In terms of the back line, Hummels still maintains a high level of ability.

The overall high-pressure pressing has also become fierce.

Compared with the group stage, the Hornets at this time give people a feeling of full stamina.

"It's not easy to play!"

Lekai took off his headphones and sighed.

He immediately stood up and said, "Okay, guys, it's time to go back and get ready for bed. I don't want anyone to stay up late and play the game tomorrow with dark circles under their eyes!"

The team members couldn't help but wail:

"It's only 8 o'clock!"

"Too early!"

"We'll chat for an hour!"

"Okay? Just one hour!"

Faced with his teammates' request, Lekai smiled and said, "One hour is no problem, but at 9 o'clock, I'll come down to check. If anyone is still here, don't blame me for forcing you to go back and count sheep!"

The teammates immediately responded happily:

"Don't worry!"

"No problem!"

"Captain! Long live!"

"Hahaha, another hour of chat!"

Lekai smiled and shook his head, then stood up and walked towards the elevator, ready to go back to the room.

When you walk out of the elevator and walk towards the room, you will pass a fire escape.

The door at the entrance of the fire escape is open, and the voice-controlled lights inside turn on and off, as if someone is inside.

When Lekai passed the fire escape, he glanced inside along the passage.

At this glance, he saw a red light in the darkness.

Lekai frowned and said, "Wojciech?"

The sudden movement caused a hurried sound of footsteps inside, and then the red light suddenly disappeared.

Szczesny climbed up the stairs, and his expression was a little panicked. When he saw Lekai, his face was even more embarrassed.

Lekai's nose moved slightly and sniffed.

"You smoke again!"

Szczesny touched his nose and said, "I'm a little nervous, so I want to..."

Lekai sighed, "Man, your way of relieving stress is not very good."

Szczesny smiled bitterly; "You won't tell the professor?"

"I won't tell tattletales, but I want to help you."

This is not the first time that Szczesny has a smoking problem.

In the 11-12 season, this guy was caught smoking in the parking lot after training.

In the 12-13 season, this guy also had a cigarette before the game.

Especially at the end of the season, after failing to win the championship, this guy smoked in the bathroom of the locker room in public and was fined 20,000 pounds by the professor!

Even with many lessons, this guy always refuses to change.

"Man, the professor has given you the final ultimatum. If you can't get rid of this bad habit, you may leave Arsenal!"

Lekai said earnestly; "I think you are also very clear about the harm of smoking. Your explosiveness and all aspects of your body will be affected."

"I'm not preaching, I just want to help you, Wojciech, we are good friends, and partners on the same side of the field. I know you are under a lot of pressure, but this is not a reason for you to smoke."

"As a goalkeeper, if you really can't find a sense of security, then I can provide you with some help."

When Lekai just joined Arsenal, Szczesny helped him a lot, and he was also one of the few players willing to take the initiative to accept Lekai.

Lekai is grateful for this.

Therefore, Lekai does not want Szczesny to be abandoned by the club because of the problem of smoking.

After all, no head coach can tolerate a player who likes to smoke.

For football players, smoking is a forbidden thing.

Szczesny smiled bitterly; "I always lack a sense of security, and too much pressure will make my mentality unbalanced, so sometimes I need to smoke to calm my emotions."

Lucky looked down at the cigarette in Szczesny's hand and said, "Let's make a bet."

"What bet?"

Szczesny wondered.

Lucky smiled: "In this game, I will help you build enough security. Let's keep Dortmund zero. If we can do that, then you must quit smoking."

Szczesny was surprised; "Are you kidding? No score against Dortmund in Westphalia?"

Lucky shrugged: "You have to try after all!"

Szczesny frowned and thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I promise, if this game is really a clean sheet, then cigarettes will have no meaning to me, and I will keep my promise."

Lucky nodded and said; "If I can't achieve it, I will"

Szczesny waved his hand and interrupted; "No, this is a bet to help me, you don't need to pay anything."

After saying that, Szczesny lowered his eyes, grinned and said, "Can I have another one? Is that okay?"

Lucky stared expressionlessly, and Szczesny quickly raised his hands in surrender.

"Okay! I won't smoke anymore! I surrender!"

With that, Szczesny was leaving.

Lucky stood in front of the opponent, spread his hands, and glanced at Szczesny's palm.

Szczesny was stunned for a moment, then handed it over awkwardly.

"I only brought this pack!"

Lucky took the cigarette, smoked it into a ball, threw it into the trash can nearby, and said with a smile, "Trust me, you won't need it in the future!"

After saying that, the two of them returned to their rooms.

After Lucky returned to the room, he did not fall asleep immediately, but continued to watch videos of several games.

At 9 o'clock, Lucky got up and ran to the first floor to check if there was any disobedient guy.

The first floor has become empty, and it is obvious that the teammates have returned to the room to rest.

Lucky nodded with satisfaction, returned to the room, and fell asleep immediately!

The next day!

Lucky got up early and went to the restaurant to have breakfast.

At 9 o'clock, the teammates also started to get up one after another to eat.

At this time, Lucky had already done some simple warm-ups in the gym inside the hotel.

Because there is a game in the evening, Lucai cannot do strenuous exercise, but he must ensure that his body is sufficiently excited.

He uses various methods to stimulate his body and make himself feel better.

In the afternoon, Wenger led everyone to prepare for the walk.

They will conduct a one-hour on-court training at the Westfalenstadion to familiarize themselves with the court.

The day passed quickly.

Night falls slowly.

With the neon flashing, the entire city of Dortmund became extremely lively.

Countless families wore yellow jerseys and took to the streets, gathering into a huge flow of people and walking toward the Westfalenstadion.

The Arsenal and Dortmund buses also arrived at the Westfalenstadion on time at 8:30 pm.

The arrival of the two teams indicates that the game is about to begin.

This Champions League quarter-final, Dortmund vs Arsenal!

Will the Hornets advance to the semi-finals again, or will Arsenal advance to the semi-finals for the fifth time in history?

But no matter from which aspect, this will definitely be a wonderful showdown!
