Chapter 151: Lucky Addiction

On April 9, in the 33rd round of the Premier League, Arsenal played away against West Ham United.

In this game, Lucky did not start, Wenger hoped that Lucky could get some rest time.

Last season, Lucky was almost fully present.

This season is the same. Such attendance rate plus Lucky's core attribute bonus in the team will only increase his pressure in all aspects.

For this reason, even if Lucky disagreed, Wenger still did not give Lucky the opportunity to start.

And Lucky's absence also made Arsenal's game extremely difficult.

In the first half, Arsenal and West Ham played hard, and West Ham took the lead twice. Although Arsenal relied on Suarez's double goal to equalize the score, the overall situation was still at a disadvantage.

The performance of the back line was even more disastrous.

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said bluntly: "In this game, we saw a real Arsenal. Without the support of Kai, Arsenal's performance was too disappointing. If it weren't for the support of Suarez and Kante, Arsenal's performance would be even worse than that of a Championship team!"

The fact that Lucky didn't play completely exposed Arsenal's problems.

At the same time, it also made it clear to everyone how much Arsenal relies on Lucky.

With or without Lucky, Arsenal's performance is the same as two teams.

Commentary partner Richard even complained; "I can't believe how strong Kai must be to bring such a team into the Champions League zone! Facts have proved that Arsenal needs to be reorganized. They have too many problems. This is not a problem that can be solved by a few players."

As Richard said, Arsenal fans are also extremely angry.

For them, they hope that Arsenal can play more as a team, just like last season, even if Lucky is restricted, others can stand up and lead the team to victory.

【To be honest, I have been using Reading to keep up with the latest updates recently. It can switch sources and has many voices for reading. It is available for Android and Apple.

But Arsenal cannot do this this season.

They rely more on Lucky. The consequence of Lucky not playing is that they don’t know how to play football at all.

During the halftime break, Wenger was rarely angry. He scolded some players in the locker room.

The atmosphere in the entire locker room was depressing and uncomfortable.

"Kai, go warm up!"

Lucky sighed helplessly, got up and walked out of the locker room to warm up.

Lucky ran along the sideline to warm up, but Lucky's warm-up made those West Ham United fans who were originally jubilant show a trace of solemnity.

They knew very well that Lucky was about to play.

In fact, this is an extremely sad story.

If they want to win, then they need Lucky not to be on the court, and after they gain an advantage, Lucky will definitely come on the bench.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Although Wenger asked Lucky to warm up, he did not let him play at the first time.

It was still the same team from the first half.

Wenger hoped that his scolding could play a role and bring some positive changes to the players.

But it was not what he wanted.

Arsenal lost the ball just 5 minutes into the second half.

And it was in the dangerous area near the right bottom line of the field. West Ham United seized the opportunity, a cross ball, the center jumped up and headed the ball, and the ball went into the net.

West Ham United took the lead again.

The score came to West Ham United 3:2 Arsenal.

At this time, Wenger could no longer keep Lucky on the bench.

Wenger immediately made a substitution gesture.

Flamini went off the court and Lucky came on the court.

"West Ham United scored again. Arsenal's performance in this game was disastrous. They had a similar performance in the first half of the season, and now they are back to that time. Arsenal without Kai is incomprehensible!"

"West Ham United took the lead, but the bad news is that their advantage forced Kai out."

"In the 51st minute, Arsenal made a substitution adjustment, Flamini went off the court, and Kai came on!"

Lucai and Flamini high-fived on the sidelines.

When Arsenal's away fans saw Lukay's figure, they felt relieved.

They greeted Lukay with cheers, but were drowned out by huge boos.

These boos came from West Ham United fans.

Lukay didn't care about it. As soon as he ran onto the court, Koscielny ran over and tied the captain's armband on Lukay himself.

"Our performance was too bad!"

Koscielny couldn't raise his head.

In this game, their performance was really touching.

Lekai patted Koscielny on the shoulder and said, "Focus on the game, we'll talk about these things after the game!"

After that, Lekai raised his arms, clapped his hands to attract the attention of his teammates, and said loudly:

"Guys, cheer up, how long will we fall behind?"

Lekai raised his index finger and said confidently, "It's just a one-goal difference, it's no big deal, we have to find a way to give Luis a hat trick."

Hearing this, the Arsenal players blinked and turned to look at Suarez.

The latter smiled bitterly in his heart, raised his head and said, "Pass the ball to me!"

Lekai grinned and gave Suarez a thumbs up.

The game started again.

"Kai switched positions with Kanter, obviously to block the connection between Payet and Carroll. Payet performed very well in this game, passing four key passes and three assists in a row, while Kawhi Rohr also responded to Payet's explosion and scored a hat trick, but for this partnership, the real test has just begun!"

Payet joined West Ham United this season. In the last round against Arsenal, Payet was injured and was unable to play. Since then, Payet's performance has been very stable.

In this game, Arsenal's confidence was boosted by Arsenal's poor performance.

At this time, Payet was full of confidence and wanted to continue to attack Arsenal's defense.

"Pass the ball to me!"

Payet took the initiative to ask for the ball. This move was very obvious, and Lucky also saw this.

However, based on Payet's performance, West Ham United's midfielder still passed the ball, which showed trust.

Lucky immediately rushed to Paye's side.

Payet's feet are very flexible. Although he is not particularly fast, he has become West Ham United's breakthrough point on the wing with his excellent foot skills.

Payet could also feel the pressure from Lucky, so after stopping the ball, he immediately pulled away and wanted to readjust.

But Lucai didn't give him a chance at all and continued to press forward.

Pat, forced by Lucky, kept retreating.

And Lucky is also unforgiving when he gains the upper hand.

Faced with Lucky's threat, Pat gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble.

With his back turned, he knocked the ball with his heel, trying to penetrate his crotch.

At the same time, the body turns to the right.

No obstacles!

Paye was delighted.

He quickly turned around, but he found that the ball was not coming.

At the same time, Lucky had passed the ball to Wilshere, but he did not participate in the attack.

Paye was a little dazed. The action just now was his unique skill and he had tried it repeatedly.

But when facing Lucky, he stumbled.

"Paye~~couldn't go over!"

Andy Gray shook his head and said: "Ke's defense cannot carry out such dribbling operations. Many players paid the price for this. Fortunately, West Ham United's pressure was not great and Arsenal could not quickly launch a counterattack."

Lucky's defensive performance in the midfield finally relieved Arsenal's defense.

But Wenger looked at this scene and shook his head.

"They're spoiled by Kai!"

Patrice was also silent.

To some extent, Arsenal are now suffering from Lucky dependency syndrome.

This is not good news for a team.

Due to Lucky's role in defense, Arsenal's defenders have lost their energy. Compared with their performance, they have more of a conservative mentality of not wanting to make mistakes.

This also leads to the fact that in many cases, when they should have stepped forward to grab, they hesitate to step forward!

In the field, Lucky's performance is still very active.

West Ham United wants to rely on Payet's performance to continue to attack Arsenal's defense.

But they found that Paye couldn't pass Lucky at all.

The gate effect appears again.

Lucky directly sealed the passage corridor on the right side of Arsenal!

And Payet's magical performance gradually dissipated.

The connection between Payet and Carol completely collapsed.

Arsenal's defense is back to a stable point again.

This also shows that Arsenal's opportunity to attack has arrived!
