Chapter 142 Guest Team Dressing Room

At the Emirates Stadium, Degan and his teammates are still here to play. Compared with Arsenal's previous home stadium, Haibury, it is significantly larger and more complete. Although Haibury is one of the world's most famous stadiums, Arsenal still realizes to play with those European elites. To compete with the club, we still have to have a bigger and better court.

At the beginning, it was their head coach Wenger who proposed to build a new stadium: "I don't remember when I proposed to build the stadium to the board of directors. Maybe after we won the "double championship" in 1998, although I was actively involved in this matter, I'm not a director, so I'm just As a consultant, I am just the head coach of the team. I have the responsibility to contribute to the growth of the club, and it is very important for the club to have a long-term plan.

Due to a lack of funds, the club announced that the construction of the new stadium was postponed from 2005 to 2006, which caused a lot of speculation, and there were even rumors that the team would use Haible Stadium to share a stadium with Tottenham Hotspur.

Wenger refuted this statement, saying, "We will consider different suggestions, but from beginning to end, we have focused on the new plan."

For the sake of the new stadium, Arsenal signed a sponsorship contract with Emirates with Emirates. The new stadium will be named Emirates Stadium for a period of 15 years. In addition, from the first season of the opening of the new stadium, Emirates replaced O2 as the jersey owner of the Arsenal. Sponsor for 8 years.

The huge impact of the Emirates Stadium is obvious. Arsenal's current game day income is almost 1 million pounds more than before, and this does not include other business income.

In the early morning of July 23, 2006, Arsenal held a friendly match with Ajax, which was Arsenal's first game at the Emirates Stadium and a farewell match for Dutch veteran Borgkamp.

The Emirates Stadium is undoubtedly one of the most luxurious stadiums in the Premier League. Both fans and the home team Arsenal can enjoy the top treatment on this stadium, but those teams visiting here are not so lucky.

The visiting team not only needs to fight against the gunners on the football field, but also fights against some objective factors off the field. Just like the wonderful scenery on the court, there is also a very unique behind-the-scenes story in the locker room of Arsenal Chiefs Stadium.

Arsenal's head coach Wenger attaches great importance to details, and the construction and construction of the Emirates Stadium are carried out under his attention and supervision. In order to create a more comfortable working environment, Wenger's humanistic care for his disciples is reflected in every corner of the Emirates Stadium. Turf, lights, side buffer belt and home team locker room.

In the home team locker room of Emirates Stadium, all modern living facilities are available. This room is very bright and airy.

The locker room of the home team is amazing and obviously influenced by Wenger's feng shui concept, which is the things he brought back from Japan. For auspicious picture, the room is designed in the shape of a horseshoe, with no corner or sharp edge inside. The ceiling is built according to acoustic principles, so that Wenger no longer has to shout at the top of his voice, as long as he says it casually, he can be heard by everyone.

All players are in place in a certain order, including goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, strikers, and then substitutes, so that they line up in a clockwise direction, but this is not Wenger's original creation, but Arsenal's own tradition.

This means that when Wenger trains between games, all players see the professor's front, not the back. Whether it is Gala or Fabregas, or those substitutes, they can intuitively see Wenger's facial expressions and emotional reactions, which is very important for players and coaches. .

The details in the home team's locker room are not limited to this. The walls here are uniformly white, a pollution-free color, which can make people quieter. The players' seats can be electronically heated, which helps them maintain their body temperature and circulate blood in their legs within 15 minutes of the break. The member's jersey is hung in his compartment, and there is a lamp in the compartment, made of brown pine tree head.

Under the player's seat, the staff responsible for the player's game equipment will put their boots neatly. In addition, there is a single room in the locker room of the home team, which is used by physiotherapists to physiotherapy for the injured. In the middle of the locker room, there is also a dining table with a lot of fruits, water and high-energy drinks. Players can replenish energy in time through these foods and water. The temperature in the locker room is adjusted according to the outdoor temperature every game day. When Arsenal players come in at half-time, they will not immediately enter a relatively cold environment.

Since Professor Wenger places great emphasis on details, the visiting team's locker room will definitely be the object of his great care. Compared with the home team's locker room, the visiting team's locker room is a different scene.

There is also a table in the middle of the visiting team's locker room, but the height of the table is very exquisite. When the visiting team players and the coach sit together, the table will block each other's sight, and when food and drinks are placed on it, the coach's head is not within the player's sight.

The seats of the visiting team are not heated, the temperature of the locker room will not be heated, and the floor tiles are more slippery than the locker room of the home team, and the storage compartment under the seats of the visiting team players is locked. If they want to place anything, they must bend down or squat down.

From this point of view, Wenger has made great efforts in many details to ensure the advantage of the home team before the game. But then again, which visiting team's dressing room can be compared with the home team at any stadium in the Premier League?

And these details are part of British football culture.

This once again proves that Wenger is the head coach of the club's drilling camp everywhere, and does not even oppose some traditional tricks and uses court facilities to deal with visitors.

In the visiting team's locker room, the Florentine players are making final preparations before the war. It seems that everyone is relaxed, and Pacini and Montolivo are still chatting.

"I think we should make a suggestion to the club. Compared with here, the locker room at Vladimir Stadium is terrible!" Pacini has always been a guy who likes to complain. There's nothing he can do. This is his character.

Of course, this is not his fault. The infrastructure of the Vlaki Stadium is indeed a few streets worse than the Emirates Stadium, but there is nothing we can do. In Italy, the club cannot own the stadium, and the ownership of the stadium belongs to the local municipal council. Naturally, Delaware will not spend its own money to increase the fixed assets of the Florence City Council.

Montolivo ignored Pacini's complaints, looked at the environment of the dressing room, and just said, "It seems that Stamford Bridge is not as good as here!"

"Compared with here, the dressing room at the Flagy Stadium is simply hell!" Pachini's tone was a little jealous.

caused other teammates to laugh.

"If you go to see their home team's locker room, this is also hell!" Degan pushed the door and came in, "Okay! Guys! I'm back! Do you know where I just went?"

Everyone looked at him.

Digan smiled and said, "I have to say that it's too big here, so I was very unlucky to go to the wrong locker room, which made me find a very interesting phenomenon. Mr. Wenger seems to really care about nothing in order to win!"

Degan had heard about the locker room of the visiting team at the Emirates Stadium in his previous life, and today, because of an "accident", he confirmed it by the way.

After Digan introduced what he saw to everyone, Pacini couldn't help shouting: "God! Is Arsenal planning to build their locker rooms into a five-star hotel?

Digan walked over, patted Pacini on the shoulder and asked him to sit down: "I don't know what they plan to do. What I want to tell you is that if you want to take a shower, you'd better be careful on the ground. I don't want anyone to have an accident before the game because of hygiene!"

After listening to Degan's words, the teammates noticed that the floor tiles in the visiting team's locker room at the Emirates Stadium were indeed slippery and could skate.

"This is the hospitality of Londoners!?" Kavinage said something.

Digan shrugged his shoulders without any doubt: "Fernand! I'm sorry that I can't answer you, but as I just saw, Arsenal is making trouble for us in all aspects, so what do you think we should do?

Pachini shouted, "Kle them and let Arsenal know that any small trick is useless to us!"

Digan smiled and said, "Very good! This is exactly what I want to say. They do everything they can to set up obstacles for us. What we need to do now is to tell them that if we want to defeat Florence, we can only be on the court, with our true skills. Under the court, we have nothing to fear!"

"It's on the court, and we don't care about their bastards who can only play tricks!"

The players were all angry and shouted because of the obvious difference.

Seeing that the heat was almost over, Degan took the initiative to retreat.

Prandelli saw Degan's performance just now. Seeing that Degan came to him and asked with a smile, "Are you really wrong!"

Degan smiled and said, "Of course, coach! You know, I've never had good luck outside the court!"

Plandli smiled and said, "I hope you have bad luck on the court and don't take it to the court!"

Digan looked at the excited teammates: "Of course! When I got to the court, the goddess of luck has always been very favored by me.

"It's really wrong!" Prandelli felt that Degan must be playing some tricks, and he was also a curious person.

Degan looked at the gossip coach helplessly: "Coach! That doesn't seem to matter now!"

It's time to play, and the players of the two teams stand in two rows at the exit of the player's passage.

"Welcome to the Emirates Stadium!"

Degan turned his head and looked at Fabregas: "Thank you! We already felt your enthusiasm in the locker room just now!"

Fabregas gritted his teeth and said harshly, "We should have treated you as a spy and beat you up just now!"

Degan didn't see this little threat from Fabregas at all: "Really? But if that's the case, I think you will lose more!"

Digan said and looked back at the other players of Arsenal. His eyes were full of provocation. They were all stupid, black and thick, not enough for the young master's fist.

"Don't leave here with a smile today!" Fabregas didn't know what was going on. From just now, he felt that his blood was about to burn. This was the first time that he couldn't help but want to provoke Degan.

This is the first time that Fabregas has appeared in front of Arsenal fans as a captain. If he wants to do well, he must do it well, and the condition to do well is to kill Fiorentina and lead Arsenal to the Champions League final.

But in terms of verbal disputes, how Fabregas, a little bud, is Degan's opponent: "Of course, we will shed tears of excitement and leave here with nostalgia for this super stadium! All right! Spanish genius, I don't want to quarrel with you. If you are really as powerful as you said, come to the court and beat me. Otherwise, shut up and go back to your mother's arms and cry!"

Fabregas was stunned by Degan's sudden reprimand and was about to fight back, but he saw the referee turn his head and stare at the two of them.

"Be quiet! If you don't want this game to become ten to ten, shut up now!"

Digan has been happy, and naturally he has no objection: "Of course, I'm happy to help you!"

Fabregas hasn't been happy yet. At this time, he was a little stuffy. Gala, who stood behind him, advised, "Don't pay attention to him. That guy only has a strong mouth!"

Although Gala was dissatisfied with the deprivation of his captain's position, it was not Fabregas' fault.

Digan laughed strangely: "I can't compare with you. Your stinky mouth has lost the captain's arm logo!"

When Gala heard this, he was so angry that his hair almost grew out. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the referee shout unbearably: "Last warning, shut up!"

Digan heard this and immediately spread out his hands to prove his innocence.

Fabregas hates his teeth: "I will beat you on the court!"

Digan smiled: "Let's wait and see!"

The referee is really going crazy now. Fortunately, it's time for them to enter.

walked out of the player channel and felt the cheers given to the home team by the surrounding Arsenal fans. Of course, the curses given to him were indispensable. Degan actually smiled, looked left and right, and whispered, "It's really good!"
