Previously, the system had explained that the "Ball Control" stat on the attribute panel also included dribbling!
In other words—
At this very moment, Kai had officially become a fully maxed-out ball control and dribbling master!
A true dribbling genius, flawless in every technical aspect!
As he felt the transformation in his body brought by max-level dribbling,
Kai's expression lit up with excitement.
Dribbling is an essential attribute for any attacking midfielder or forward.
And max-level dribbling?
It needed no explanation.
Kai's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm.
Throughout history, all legendary dribblers were revered names.
But even someone as great as Maradona—
might not even reach max dribbling stats in this system.
Now he had:
Maxed Dribbling!
Maxed Passing!
Maxed Vision!
Maxed Set Pieces!
He was ready to tear through the Premier League like a bloody hurricane!
With the second round of the Champions League group stage concluded,
October arrived!
And this month, Arsenal's schedule was once again packed.
Four league matches
One fourth-round League Cup match
One Champions League group stage match (Round 3)
As the season ramped up,
Wenger was now facing a tough question:
Should Arsenal compete on all four fronts this season?
Once the FA Cup kicks off next month…
Arsenal would be fighting across four different competitions!
Four-front warfare—
This was something nearly unheard of in English football!
With no winter break in the Premier League,
and an extremely congested calendar—
Fighting on four fronts felt, to many fans, like suicidal madness.
October 2nd.
Premier League Round 7.
Arsenal hosted West Bromwich Albion at home.
This was a lower-mid table side who had only returned to the top flight two seasons ago.
Their tactics and squad depth were far from competitive.
Under the North London night sky—
In 90 minutes of action,
Kai scored four stunning goals!
And added two assists!
Van Persie netted a brace!
Arsenal demolished West Brom 6–0 at home!
In the stands, the Arsenal supporters were shocked once again.
With his newly maxed-out dribbling, Kai's playstyle had taken a massive leap forward!
He was still razor-sharp in his assists…
But now, when attacking, he often took matters into his own hands.
Even just giving a small preview of his new dribbling level—
Kai completely tore West Brom's defense to shreds!
On the sidelines, West Brom's coach was dumbfounded.
He had never seen a Premier League player who could dribble like a South American wizard!
The Arsenal fans were going wild!
Their team had now won seven straight league matches—
Unstoppable, sitting firmly at the top of the Premier League table!
While Manchester United, sitting in second place, weren't too far behind in points—
In terms of goal difference, they were trailing by more than double!
But what scared Arsenal fans even more—
Their Gunner King was still evolving!
And his ways of finishing off games were becoming more elegant—
and more brutal!
October 6th.
Premier League Round 8.
Arsenal hosted Sunderland.
5–1!
Kai netted yet another hat-trick in back-to-back matches!
And provided two assists again!
Van Persie and Giroud each scored one goal.
October 15th.
Premier League Round 9.
Crystal Palace (away) vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers!
This season, Wolves were dead last in the Premier League table after eight rounds.
If the team didn't show some major improvement soon,
They would likely confirm relegation early.
That night—
Wolves' century-old home ground, Molineux Stadium, was completely overtaken—
by Arsenal fans turning it into a shrine of red and white!
Facing Premier League leaders Arsenal,
the league's bottom team, Wolves, showed no fightback spirit at all.
After 90 minutes—
Arsenal 7–0!
A ruthless slaughter at Molineux!
Kai scored four goals yet again on the attacking end!
And provided two assists for good measure.
Van Persie bagged a long-awaited hat-trick!
Even Gervinho contributed with an assist.
Arsenal had now secured an insane nine-match winning streak!!
All of English football was in an uproar.
This was the most explosive start to a Premier League season in years!
And compared to the other members of the "Big Six",
Arsenal's goal difference was downright terrifying.
The Gunners had been dominating every match in the league.
This kind of performance—
in a league known for its intense competition—
was almost unimaginable!
Arsenal fans stared in disbelief at the Premier League standings.
Everyone felt a chill down their spine!
After nine rounds—
The top scorer and top assist provider?
Was their captain — Kai!
In just nine matches,
Kai had scored 23 goals
and delivered 27 assists!!
These stats shocked fans all over England!
Ever since he tied Thierry Henry's single-season assist record in just six rounds,
Kai had firmly taken control of the Premier League assist leaderboard.
Now, with every single assist,
he was breaking his own record!
And on the goal-scoring front—
23 goals in just 9 league games!
He was only a few goals away from breaking the all-time Premier League season goal record!
Former Newcastle legend Alan Shearer told the media:
"In my era, we never saw a talent this terrifying.
It's only a matter of time before he breaks my 34-goal Premier League record."
European media were in shock!
Alan Shearer, once hailed as England's greatest striker,
scored 260 goals in his Premier League career!
But even his long-standing records—
Were now visibly about to be shattered by a supernova who had only debuted a year ago!
October 19th.
The League Cup Fourth Round kicked off!
This time, Arsenal's luck held steady—
They drew a lower-league side from League Two: Aldershot Town.
Wenger rotated the entire first team.
Kai only came on in the 70th minute, just to get a light warm-up.
Next stop:
Anfield.
Where they would face the legendary Liverpool—
With club legend Steven Gerrard still commanding the midfield,
and the rising star Jordan Henderson, Liverpool's future leader.
Under the feverish anticipation of fans—
Arsenal were heading into a Premier League Round 10 showdown
at the historic Anfield Stadium for a blockbuster clash against Liverpool!
