Dear Gua

Chapter 386 King of Guns (Daily Transition)

Prince William's early life could fill a book.

He was once handsome, but now his hairline is receding, and his bald spot is becoming more pronounced.

On the awards podium.

He shook Li Kang's hand warmly.

As a die-hard Aston Villa fan, he joked, "If I could travel back two years, I would have paid out of my own pocket to bring you to Villa Park! One million euros, we could even do installments."

The old prince works as a pilot and has a decent income.

Li Kang smiled, then, urged by his teammates, raised the FA Cup trophy!

"2016/17 FA Cup champions, Arsenal!"

"Double crown winners, Arsenal!"

Flames rose again beside the field.

A cannon salute!

The Gunners players and fans launched into a massive singalong!

"Hot Stuff."

The names of the star players in the lyrics were also temporarily changed to the championship-winning lineup of the 16/17 season.

The entire Wembley Stadium instantly erupted.

The beautiful melody was exhilarating.

The Samba winger, Willian, who had slipped into the tunnel early, couldn't help but dance to the beat!

Diego Costa instinctively hummed along.

"Li is our most dazzling light."

"Forward!"

"We'll just keep shutting you up with goals!"

"We're moving forward with Wenger!"

After all, it wasn't the official team song, and their quiet humming didn't draw strong opposition from their teammates.

The original version of "Hot Stuff" was also a smash hit single that swept the world in the 80s.

"."

"Hey! Hey, hey! Are you two guys thinking about joining Arsenal? And you, what are you doing eating a burger?"

Terry shouted, turning to Hazard, who was holding a burger.

The latter explained awkwardly, "The season's over..."

The FA Cup runner-up of the new era is rarely too depressed.

Wenger was surrounded by reporters.

"This is the seventh FA Cup you've won! Has the Arsenal board decided to extend your contract?"

The classic "FA Cup win equals contract extension" gag.

The reporters couldn't help but laugh.

This gag originated from the massive "Anti-Wenger movement." Whenever the Arsenal coach was on the verge of being sacked and the club's upper management was indifferent, Wenger could always use an FA Cup trophy to "extend his life."

His contributions to Arsenal go without saying.

He doesn't own any shares in the club either.

As for his salary?

At the bottom of the Premier League Big Six.

Over the years, his salary ranking among coaches in Europe has fluctuated between 14th and 30th.

Wenger smiled kindly and said, "If Li hadn't joined Arsenal, this FA Cup final might have been my last hope of staying at Arsenal."

The reporters' smiles faded.

They couldn't help but think back to the anti-Wenger movement: being told to die by fans at every turn, all kinds of foul language and insults, the countless 'noContArACr, wengerout' banners, and the club's upper management once allowing Gazidis to decide his fate.

And the "Wenger Out" editorials written in various languages around the world.

An ordinary old man nearing seventy would have been driven half to death by this kind of abuse, and would never have been able to stay in the position of Arsenal coach.

As a result, Wenger actually said in an interview with the BBC: "Excessively serious behavior will damage Arsenal's image around the world."

Here's an example:

Xiao Ming single-handedly built a super luxurious classroom, consistently ranked fourth in the grade, and was beaten every day in class. As a result, he said, "You can hit me, but don't hit me too hard, it will damage the class's image."

"Why is it suddenly so quiet?"

"Arsenal has already won the domestic double crown, and there's still a Champions League final to come."

Clap, clap, clap!

Wenger clapped his hands with a smile.

The reporters responded with warm applause.

He arrived on the Premier League stage in the early nineties, facing much doubt.

Years later.

When he left, he left behind a legendary career filled with glory and dreams.

That night.

Chelsea officially announced: Conte will no longer serve as head coach.

The dismissal statement was very tactful: thanking Conte's team for their contributions and expressing their willingness to pay the compensation.

The major online media exploded.

-

[Chelsea ended the season without a single trophy and still have to pay Conte more than 26 million pounds in compensation?]

-

[The compensation that Abu has paid to his past coaches could buy a super player.]

-

[Conte did a good job this season. If it weren't for Arsenal, Chelsea would have been the Premier League champions.]

-

[Abu is so picky, he's hired all the famous coaches. Who would dare to take over Chelsea now?]

-

[Di Matteo led Chelsea to win the Champions League that year and was still sacked.]

-

[That Champions League title had nothing to do with Di Matteo. He was just a figurehead, a cheerleader. The title was won thanks to the tactical system left by Boas and the efforts of a group of old boys.]

After the celebration.

Everyone still didn't go to experience the local customs or have a drink together, but went back to their respective homes.

Arsenal's locker room maintained a "healthy" atmosphere.

The Gunners have only one challenge left this season: the Champions League final!

The night sky was drizzling with rain.

The business car drove along the ancient streets.

The headlights illuminated the rain curtain swept by the night wind.

"Li, the news is comparing you to Ronaldo before his injury at 19! The extraterrestrial from midfield!"

"That sounds like a curse. I don't want you to be plagued by injuries after 20," Wilde said suddenly, holding his phone.

Li Kang looked down at the tablet.

[Ding, congratulations on unlocking the "FA Cup Champion" achievement.]

[Achievement Description: Double crown winners! Invincible Arsenal! A red and white dynasty!]

[Task Reward: Team History Legend Treasure Chest.]

[After opening, you can obtain a special module from your club's history.]

[The treasure chest is opening.]

[Congratulations on obtaining: Henry's "King of Kings" module!]

[Handball assist!]

[King of Highbury! King!]

[The Emperor!]

[My ball control is like Henry's!]

[The train of time, affectionate gaze... shadow.]

Although Henry now badmouths Arsenal's coaching staff and players every day, he made a great contribution to Arsenal back then. After all, he's the man for whom the club erected a statue outside the Emirates Stadium.

In his last season with Arsenal, he was plagued by injuries, playing on and off, and was no longer at his peak, but he still descended like a god in the last round to defeat Tottenham, helping the club successfully secure fourth place and qualify for the Champions League.

Henry is an honest man. He was already thirty years old and could have joined Barcelona as a free agent and received a huge signing fee.

But he still chose to renew his contract with Arsenal before joining Barcelona, leaving the Gunners with a transfer fee of 24 million euros.

He had done his utmost.

In that era, thirty years old could be said to be the end of a professional career.

Li Kang's mind was immediately filled with: 229 goal highlights from Henry's time at Arsenal.

Of which 40 goals were world-class screamers, and 63 goals were after dribbling past opponents.

Nearly half of the goals were scored through individual ability.

Then.

106 assist highlights gradually emerged in Li Kang's mind.

["King of Kings" additional negative emotion triggered: You love Arsenal deeply.]

[This emotion has been offset by the template's negative effect.]

Can this even be considered a negative emotion?

Whether it's offset or not doesn't have any real impact...

Li Kang didn't think too much about it.

The Champions League final is imminent, and he can't be distracted by off-field matters.
