Chapter 611 begins with the appearance of Henry the Great!

But Wenger has no intention of substituting Henry for the game.

It's not that Wenger doesn't want to change, but Wenger knows very well that Henry is already 35 years old this year. Although he is experienced, his physical fitness, speed, confrontation, and adaptability after not playing in the Premier League for a long time are far behind.

Henry is now more of a spiritual leader.

Substituting Henry on so early, let alone whether he could teach Gu Ran a lesson, it would be a blessing if he didn't get beaten up by Gu Ran.

The game continues.

Just three minutes later, Southampton, under the organization of Gu Ran, launched another rapid attack. After passing three defensive players, Gu Ran sent the ball to the left with the outside of his foot. Chamberlain had cut into the left side of the penalty area without the ball, and after receiving Gu Ran's pass without any hindrance, he simply stopped and rubbed the ball, and the ball rolled rapidly towards the goal!

Fabianski fell to the ground to save the ball but missed it by half a beat! The ball went in! Southampton scored two goals in 5 minutes and reversed Arsenal's reversal!

The score on the big screen at the Emirates Stadium immediately changed to Arsenal 2:3 Southampton! Southampton fans cheered and jumped in the stands!

Arsenal fans held their heads, unable to believe the score.

Arsenal is a BIG team that can play in the Champions League and is in the top four of the Premier League!

However, at their home ground, they were beaten like this by Southampton!

Arsenal fans looked at Gu Ran with very complicated eyes. They wanted an all-around superstar like Gu Ran so much that they would even rather package Fabianski, Nasri and Walcott together, and add some money, to exchange for Gu Ran.

pity……

At this time, the main camera lens was once again focused on Wenger and Henry.

Wenger sighed heavily, stopped fiddling with his zipper, turned around and whispered something to Henry beside him.

Henry nodded solemnly, then stood up from the bench and took off his pants.

The Arsenal fans at the scene cheered wildly!

Their King of Highbury was finally going to appear on the field! Henry began to warm up on the sidelines, and his every move would trigger thunderous cheers from the Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium.

This strong emotion also affected the Arsenal players on the field.

Arsenal players played a beautiful pass-and-cut combination, but unfortunately, even when Gu Ran and Mikel retreated, coupled with the double-team of Van Dijk and Luke Shaw, a diamond stranglehold was formed in the midfield and backcourt, completely strangling the connection between Fabregas and Van Persie.

But I have to say that Arsenal's cooperation was indeed beautiful.

In the 71st minute of the game, the fourth official raised his card and Arsenal made a substitution.

The little tiger Walcott, who did not perform well in this game, was substituted. The original left winger Nasri was replaced to the right side where Walcott was originally located. Nasri gave his left side to Henry the Great, the King of Highbury.

When Henry was at Juventus, he started out as a left midfielder. Later he moved to Arsenal, where Wenger had the foresight to transform Henry into a striker.

Henry can not only play as a striker, shadow striker, left midfielder, left winger, but also as a center forward.

However, although Henry is very tall, his heading ability is average, so Henry himself generally does not like to play as a standing center forward, but prefers to play as a left winger on the left side.

Especially when Arsenal has a super center forward like Van Persie, it is more natural for Henry to play as a left winger.

Serious Arsenal fans will never forget that Henry's best way is to pull to the outside left side of the penalty area and shoot an arc shot with his right foot to the far corner. This shooting method also has a name: Henry zone.

Henry's strengths lie in his speed, his ability to control the ball at high speeds, and his ability to cut inside.

Any one of these three advantages can reach world-class level, and Henry is a superstar who can maximize these advantages.

After Henry came on the field, all the Arsenal fans in the Emirates Stadium stood up and cheered, and stood to watch the rest of the game.

The Arsenal players on the field also paid tribute to Henry's appearance.

The spirit of the entire Arsenal team was also boosted.

The game resumed.

Soon, in the 74th minute, Arsenal's prince Wilshere passed the ball to Henry on the left in the middle. Henry started quickly after receiving the ball, running all the way along his own left side at the speed of the King of Highbury.

Henderson couldn't defend against Henry's speed at all.

Gu Ran also activated the King of Highbury and the Son of Wind simultaneously, and chased Henry with all his might.

Although Gu Ran was not close to Henry, his acceleration in the later period was obviously faster than Henry's! Van Dijk also came up to block Henry's breakthrough and inward cut in advance, forming an angle with Gu Ran.

Henry immediately felt the long-lost atmosphere of the Premier League.

In this situation, the experienced Henry the Great immediately kicked the ball across while running at high speed without any hesitation!

And just after he passed the ball, Gu Ran quickly approached him! In other words, if Henry hesitated for half a second longer, he would not be able to pass the ball even if it was not so easy to lose.

Henry the Great is indeed world-class.

However, Henry is indeed old. If he were in his prime, he would definitely use his speed to eat up the double-team of Gu Ran and Van Dijk, but now, he can only pass the ball.

This pass was of excellent quality during the high-speed sprint. It made an arc and bypassed Rudiger who appeared, causing Rudiger to lose the position he was supposed to defend, and then flew accurately to Van Persie who was in the back row.

Mikel chased and pulled Van Persie frantically from behind, but as a world-class center forward, Van Persie's physical confrontation ability was also world-class, and Mikel couldn't restrain Van Persie at all! Under Mikel's small movements, Van Persie jumped directly, his body flew straight up, like a torpedo fired from a barrel, and his head accurately hit the arc ball from Henry the Great!

Football uses the opponent’s force to play against him!

Outside the penalty area, 35 meters away from the fans, a direct header shot! Goalkeeper Davis couldn't react at all! The football was powerfully shot into the net!

The ball went in! The referee signaled that the goal was valid! All the Arsenal fans cheered heart-wrenchingly!

As soon as Henry came on the pitch, he assisted Van Persie to equalize the score again! Arsenal 3:3 Southampton!

The game really started when Henry came on the field! ...
