No Problem With Wenger, Says Mourinho
Arsenal youngster Hector Bellerin has expressed his delight at having ended pre-season on an optimistic note by beating Chelsea to lift the Community Shield on Sunday. It was Wenger’s first win over Mourinho in 14 attempts, per Mirror Online’s John Cross.
Some great saves from the Belgian, and he had no chance on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s goal. Last season he looked to me like a player who knew what to do and where to be on the pitch but his body couldn’t carry him there. The Blue Lions tried to come up with an equalizer, to no avail.
The Gunners midfield played well with the combination of Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla whilst Chelsea’s midfield was at their weakest as the wings struggled to get the ball.
Mikel Arteta, del Arsenal, levanta el trofeo Community Shield trophy tras el triunfo de su equipo, e … Chelsea themselves, in 2005 and 2006, are the only club other than United to achieve back-to-back victories since the PL began and they will be put to the pin of their collar to do it this time.
For years, Arsenal has been criticized for lacking a backbone in defense, and Cech may finally resolve that complaint if he can repeat the form he had at Chelsea.
The 30-year-old’s improvement as a player and flexibility to play in a number of positions has partly been down to a man he once thought of as something of a divine being.
Mourinho has explained Costa’s omission while also revealing he is still doubt for the Premier League opener against Swansea on Saturday 8 August.
“It was an intense game”.
The pair are both scheduled to attend a Premier League managers meeting in Gloucester Place, London, between 3-5pm ahead of the new season.
“We’re in England so it’s quite fair that people are trying to get solutions for more local players”. We defended. Our game is based on togetherness, on solidarity, on defending well and attacking well. We haven’t lost many at Wembley.
“Confidence-wise it’s good, it’s positive”, Wenger said. “This season we want to go that one better”.
He added: “I agree totally with the new measures”. As long as I get it served every time in press conferences it can have an impact on the team.
“From 2016/17 we are playing some games on Friday nights, but we won’t move individual fixtures as you can’t do it for everybody”.
