According to Sky Sports Germany, Neuer will fly with the squad to London for the match against Arsenal, with the goalkeeper taking part in regular training on Sunday. Neuer has missed the last four Bayern games due to injury.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Koeman, Leroy Sane, Mazraoui and Pavlovic have also returned to training.
It's not an accident, why don't you get some smoke bombs before the game...... In fact, this is good news, I can't wait for Bayern to send the strongest team to Arsenal, the two sides have a fair two-legged match, no one has any regrets, no one can say whether they win or lose.
I'm afraid that if Arsenal wins, let alone winning, the opponent's main force will be absent or something. Come on, hit hard!
According to a message from the front from the London Evening Standard, all Arsenal first-team players took part in training on Monday and no one was absent.
At this point in the season, Arsenal have not had a single injured player in the first team, which is as miraculous as the defensive statistics...... Of course, Arsenal have not been without injuries, in fact Timber and Thomas have both been injured for most of the season.
Go all out against Bayern!
Odegaard spoke before the game about facing Kane, who is in great form: "I think of course we should respect him, but I don't think we should be afraid of anyone. Kane is a fantastic player, I've played against him a couple of times and I know his level, especially in the box, and Kane is very good at playing. But we should focus on ourselves and the level of the team. ”
The captain said well, respectful but not afraid, this is Arsenal's attitude towards Kane and even more so towards Bayern.
In fact, Arsenal has been very depressed in recent years, and it has been away from the Champions League for many years, and there will still be many fans and practitioners who are optimistic about Bayern, which is normal, and winning or losing itself is also normal, Arsenal faces Bayern as a challenger, I think it's just right.
Speaking to the London evening standard before the game, Gnabry spoke about how it was like to play against Arsenal.
The German said: "It was a privilege to play for a club like Arsenal back then and now they have the ability to perform at the top level for a long time. After almost 8 years away, I'm happy to be back there again. ”
In addition, the Bayern star also spoke about his former team-mate Mikel Arteta, with Gnabry saying: "Arteta is now fully focused on his role as manager and is thinking strategically. When I played at Arsenal, Mikel Arteta was already an experienced player, he was the captain of the team, a leader who was in constant communication with everyone. Arteta was a great help in our young development, always giving advice, always trying to guide us, keeping us focused and giving everything we could. ”
Gnabry is the best mixed after leaving Arsenal early in the past few years, he won the FA Cup at Arsenal, and after going to Bayern, he even failed to win the Bundesliga, the German Cup and even the Champions League, and he has already achieved fame. It was also a pity that Arsenal did not keep him back then, but that position did make it difficult to provide Gnabry with a starting place at the time.
When it comes to Arteta, almost every former team-mate has emphasised that Tazigo showed maturity and coaching potential when he was a player, and this temperament is innate, and Arteta was born to eat the bowl of coaching.
At that time, Brother Tazi was probably the assistant coach on the field, just like the team example with very good hidden attributes in FM, it is perfect to bring young people. Arsene Wenger was lucky to buy him back then.
Perhaps, in the future, we will say that Xhaka is also lucky, or Jorginho is lucky, because they both have the potential to be good coaches, and even Wilshere is getting better and better!
Here's a quick look at the press conference.
Mikel Arteta was in attendance at his pre-match press conference and we take a look at what the Arsenal boss had to say.
Bayern's sporting director says you're the favourites, how do you assess the threat of your opponents?
Top teams, I'm a fan of them, and I really appreciate Tuchel and his team, as well as Bayern's organisation and style of play. I've learned a lot from Thomas Tuchel and if you look at Bayern, when you dig into them and you understand why they're a top team.
We were very well prepared and had to make the game play the way we wanted it to be, and if we could do that, we would have a chance to win.
Jurgen Klopp says that if United play against Arsenal like they did yesterday (see below), then it will be Arsenal who will win, do you have anything to say about that?
No, I can only discuss what we can do ourselves.
Are you surprised by Bayern's form, and will it be relevant for the next game?
I do not know. The competitive environment in football is so brutal that it's hard to be consistent, and that can happen to any team.
Have you spoken to Alonso about beating Bayern?
Good question, but I won't answer it!
When you were a player, people said Arsenal couldn't compete in this kind of competition, but now a lot of people are looking at you as big favourites, what has changed?
I can understand these arguments. But for us it's all irrelevant, we have to play well to beat a top team with good players, we have to win and that's it.
You don't seem to be afraid of anyone right now, so is it important to bring that attitude to the next game?
That's exactly what we want to do in every game. We have to make sure that something is ingrained in the team and we keep doing it.
The above is a press conference, which was only held in the early hours of the morning, and I won't say much about the time, but in fact, there is nothing important.
Who are the favourites to advance, this kind of topic is actually pointless to discuss before the game, and fans are optimistic about their home team (of course, Bayern fans may lack confidence now...... ）。 Personally, I think that Arsenal's strength and morale are online now, and there is every chance to give it a go, let it go, and if you want to take revenge, it depends on this year!
As for Klopp's comments on Manchester United, let's take a closer look.
It's official: Ben White has been named Arsenal's Player of the Month award for March, the defender has signed a long-term contract and scored his 10,000th goal for the club. White received 41 per cent of the vote, followed by Kai Havertz, Odegaard and Rice.
I think all four of them are eligible for the award, and you can even add Gabe and Saliba, but it makes sense to choose White.
White not only played steadily, but also fell into the national team recruitment turmoil last month, as a gun fan, of course, we must support our own players, I hope White will not be disturbed by these off-field factors, come on!
Jurgen Klopp spoke after the double meeting on the issue of Arsenal also playing for Manchester United, saying: "Arsenal are a good team and if Manchester United play like they did today, I think Arsenal will win. I'm 100% sure. I'm sorry I had to say that, but that's the way it is. ”
This is not convinced after being forced to draw by Manchester United, this season Liverpool has maintained a strong scene against Manchester United, but the result is not satisfactory, Uncle Scum is absolutely unconvinced! In fact, Liverpool does have more opportunities in this game, but football is like this, not whoever performs well wins, and it is also strength to seize opportunities.
But Klopp is not open-mouthed, to be honest, if Manchester United plays the nearest Arsenal at the level of this game, it is indeed a lot of bad luck, the defense line is too poor, and the attack also depends on fate......
In any case, Manchester United has completed the task given by the Gunners fans, and now it is up to Arsenal to fight for it themselves!
Fabrizio Romano spoke about Arteta's contract extension on the Here We Go podcast, saying Arsenal are close to opening new contract talks with the boss.
Romano said: "The expectation is that Arsenal will soon be in talks with Mikel Arteta on a new long-term contract, as the priority is to continue working together.
We saw some rumours of Mikel Arteta and Barcelona in March, with the media suggesting that the Arsenal boss had the opportunity to take charge of the Red and Blues, but that was never possible.
Arteta has never considered any negotiations with Barca, not just Barca, who are 100 per cent focused on Arsenal and are happy here.
So I think it's the best news for the Gunners fans, between Arteta, Edu, the boss, the players and the staff, everything was perfect, really.
In short, Arteta has not even spoken to any other club, never approached Barcelona or had conversations. ”
Romano has finally clarified this issue, in fact, everyone knows that Arteta is unlikely to take over Barcelona. Arteta If Arteta had this IQ and emotional intelligence, Arsenal would not have been trained to become a title contender in a few years.
Arsenal will 100% renew Arteta's contract, but it should be after the season, and now the league and Champions League are the most important!
