温格感叹科特迪瓦太“顽固”

温格感叹科特迪瓦太“顽固” - 21 Nov 2007

阿森纳主教练温格表示他不会再尝试让科特迪瓦晚一些召唤科洛.图雷和埃曼努尔.埃布埃参加一月份的非洲国家杯。
英超领头羊将失去这两名一线球员超过一个月的时间,而亚历山大.宋也有可能被召进喀麦隆国家队。

他们有可能错过的比赛包括:新年第一天主场对西汉姆的比赛,一场足总杯第三轮,也许存在的两场联赛杯半决赛,5场英超,以及在2月16日一场可能出现的足总杯第四轮。



温格当然不甘心在圣诞后这么密集的赛程下就这么失去他的球员,但他对科特迪瓦国家队管理者的态度表示遗憾,他说:“他们太固执了,没有一点商量的余地。”

他补充说:“他们在一月初就要离开。他们要在非洲杯开赛前的15天就去国家队报到。”

“在上次非洲杯前我们曾试图与科特迪瓦商量,让球员们晚些去报到,但我们没成功,所以这次我们不打算尝试了。”
他的挫折是显而易见的,他承认说:“他们什么时候要球员,我们就得让球员走。我们不想再与科特迪瓦商谈了。”

“我们对他们上次的态度十分失望。我们不得不在足总杯对卡迪夫[2006年]比赛前一个小时放走曼努和科洛。”。
“科特迪瓦坚持要他们过去,即使他们只是去巴黎一个旅馆的房间里坐着而不干其他事。”

“那时埃布埃刚恢复参加的比赛很少,所以让他参加足总杯比赛调整状态是有好处的。但他们要在星期六晚上集合,即使我们的比赛是在那天的早些时候,科特迪瓦仍拒绝让他们参赛。”

“他们甚至不是去非洲报到,只是去巴黎而已。而且他们在那里待到星期一才开始给球员做身体检查。”
“那个周末他们就是待在旅馆里,我和他们说‘让我们讲点逻辑好不好’——但那是不可能的。”

“那不是球员的问题,但是科特迪瓦的管理者们太顽固了,根本不需要那样。那时让他们参加比赛只会有利于他们的备战。”
“所以这次我打算在1月5日左右让他们离开,直到到2月份中旬。”

Arsene Wenger laments 'stubborn' Ivory Coast

Arsene Wenger laments 'stubborn' Ivory Coast  - 21 Nov 2007

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will not bother approaching the "stubborn" Ivory Coast management over delaying the release of Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Eboue to play in January's African Nations Cup.

The Premier League leaders could be without the pair, both first-team regulars, for more than a month, and there is also the possibility that Alex Song could be called up by Cameroon.

Matches they could miss include West Ham at home on New Year's Day, an FA Cup third-round tie, a potential two-legged Carling Cup semi-final as well as five Premier League games - and a possible FA Cup fourth-round date on February 16.
Wenger is resigned to losing his African players for that crucial post-Christmas period but lamented the attitude of the Ivory Coast management, saying: "They are so stubborn that there is no point in even speaking to them."

He added: "They will go at the beginning of January. They have to be available for their country 15 days before the start of the tournament.

"Before the last tournament we tried to negotiate a later release date with the Ivory Coast, but we had no success so we won't try this time.

His frustrations were clear as he admitted: "We will give them the players when they are due, and won't even speak to the Ivorian federation about it.

"We were so disappointed with their attitude last time. We had to pull Manu and Kolo out of the FA Cup game against Cardiff [in 2006] an hour before kick off.

"The Ivory Coast were adamant they had to join up, even though they were only going to be sitting in a hotel room in Paris doing nothing.

"Eboue had not played many games back then, so it would have been good for him to play in the FA Cup tie. But they wanted to meet up on a Saturday night, and even though our game was early that day they refused to give us permission to play them.

"This was not even to go to Africa, but to go to Paris, where they would not even start fitness tests until the Monday.
"They just sat in the hotel that weekend, and I said to them 'let's be a little bit logical here' - but it was impossible.

"It is not the players' fault at all, but the Ivory Coast management were very stubborn, and unnecessarily so because it would have been better for their preparation.

"So this time I count them out from about January 5 until approximately the middle of February."
温格在今年引进SAGNA很大程度上是为了EBOUTE非洲杯留下的空缺。但是TOURE的位置也只有SENDEROS能够补上。但是万一GALLAS或SENDEROS其中一位受伤,ARSENAL可能要依靠GILBERTO或HOYTE来"客串"中卫的位置了。
