Chapter 211 It's a mess
For Benitez, he has the capital to wait and see what happens.
He doesn't believe that with Ramsey and Coquelin on the field, two players who are more defensive than Arteta and Wilshere, what kind of attacking pressure Arsenal can put up to test Chelsea's defense. .
At this moment, Stamford Bridge Stadium is very lively.
Cheers and singing resounded through the audience.
The battle was imminent, and the fans of both sides began to compete before the game. Naturally, the fans of the home team had the absolute upper hand. The cheers and singing of Chelsea fans filled every inch of the stadium, and did not give Arsenal fans the slightest chance.
This is also normal, because most of the time there are more coaches among fans than anyone else.
The number of fans of the visiting team is only a fraction of the fans of the home team. In this case, the coach must be taking advantage of the home team.
But winning the opponent in the stands does not mean that you can win the opponent on the court.
After all, the contest on the court depends on the performance of the players on both sides.
On the court, the number of people on both sides is equal, theoretically everyone is eleven.
While it is often said that the fans are the best 12, we all know that the person who can be the best 12 or so is definitely not in the stands.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of Stamford Bridge.
In the player channel, players from both sides were queuing up, and the Chelsea players couldn't help but look at Ye Luo.
Last season, it was this guy who made Chelsea stop in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. This season he came to the Premier League and unexpectedly joined Arsenal.
The two rounds of the Champions League last season impressed most Chelsea players, and it can be said that they will be unforgettable for life.
Ye Luo played against them again this season, although the players on both sides kept silent in the media and didn't say much.
But in private.
The basic tone of Chelsea's dressing room is 'revenge'.
It is not so much revenge as redemption.
In order to drive away Villas-Boas, Chelsea's core players played badly for most of the season, which eventually led to the team's exit from the Champions League, ranking fifth in the league, and missed the Champions League this season.
Fans and the media are criticizing Chelsea's players for such an approach.
However, the Chelsea players also have their own ideas. They think it was an accident that they stopped in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last season.
This season, they must beat Ye Luo and Arsenal, so as to give the fans an explanation.
Benitez knows this very well, and this is one of his confidences. Benitez is not a very popular head coach in the team's locker room, but the Spaniard is stubborn, but he is not a fool, so he decided to It is necessary to have a good relationship with the bosses of the Chelsea team committee - especially the revenge atmosphere in the dressing room is actually beneficial to Chelsea's performance in this game.
A group of star players simmering for revenge, this is also one of Benitez's confidence in facing this game.
Under the leadership of the referee team, players from both sides lined up to play.
"Friends of the audience, friends of the audience, welcome to watch the live broadcast of the 2012-2013 English Premier League No. 12 round, the battle for the top of the Premier League! Arsenal, which is now at the top of the standings An away game against No.2 Chelsea in the league standings!"
Duan Xuan's voice came from the TV.
All the Dragon Kingdom fans waiting in front of the TV were refreshed.
On the TV screen, the starting information of the players from both sides appeared.
"Before the start of the game, let's take a look at the starting lineups sent by both sides. On Chelsea's side, it looks like a 4231 formation. The goalkeeper is of course the team's main goalkeeper Petr Cech. Terry and David Luiz are partnered at the center back. Combination, the left back sent the veteran Asli Cole, the right back is Ivanovic, Mikel and Ramirez partnered as a double midfielder, Oscar served as the front midfielder, the left midfielder Hazard, and the right midfielder Mata, center forward, No. 9 Torres!"
Then the Arsenal starting lineup appeared on the TV screen.
The TV quasi-gaming agency gave a 433 position.
After all, it seems that Arsenal just let Ramsey play to replace the injured Arteta in this round of the league.
"Arsenal, the visiting team, also sent out the strongest lineup that can be dispatched, goalkeeper Szczesny, central defender Mertesacker partner Koscielny, left back Monreal, right back Sani Ya, the configuration of midfielder Coquelin, Ramsey, and Cazorla. As for how to position, it needs to be observed again, mainly because of Ramsey's position. Waist, still standing parallel to Cazorla and playing double central midfielder. You will not know until after the game. The forward line is still the partner of Ye Luo, Giroud and Chamberlain. Gervinho and Arshavin have been injured for a long time, but it is given. England teenager Wilt Chamberlain has a lot of opportunities to play, he is a panacea in the midfield and can play in many positions. Judging from the formation chart of the broadcasting agency for this game, he should play a right winger!"
Until now, everything works fine.
Not to mention Duan Xuan, it is difficult for commentators from all over the world to see that Arsenal has changed a lot just from a starting list.
Even Benitez thinks that Arsenal played double midfielders at most.
But after the game starts.
Benitez realized something was wrong.
Not a double back.
But
Three midfielders? !
Benitez stood on the sidelines for the first time, looking at Chamberlain's position strangely.
"This guy can kick the lower back?"
He turned to his assistant and asked.
"Actually he can also play right back. His physical fitness and running ability are very strong. Although his one-on-one defensive ability is not as good as a real midfielder, if he is placed in the midfielder position, he can at least provide running. And coverage," Benitez's assistant said.
"Sure enough, it's a sudden change." Benitez took a deep breath. He could have imagined that his opponent would change, but he didn't expect such a big change! !
"Let's take a look first. It seems that Chamberlain is not the only one who retreated."
Benitez looked to another player more deserving of his attention.
Arsenal's number 10.
"Chamberlain is kicking the midfielder?!"
In the commentary booth, many commentators were a little uncertain.
Because Arsenal's position is really a bit "not so Arsenal".
It doesn't seem like Wenger's style to stand with three midfielders?
Isn't Arsenal playing beautiful football?Why now put on a posture of a three-muscled midfielder to defend and counterattack?
Andy Gray and Lineker looked at each other.
"This is really an unexpected change. Did Professor Wenger make a bad decision to improve the defense because of the team's conceded goals in the past few games?"
"Isn't it too risky to change the team's existing system rashly?"
"This is really an unaccustomed scene. Arsenal actually put on a three-back midfielder! Are they going to change their style and play defensive and counter-attacking football?"
Many commentators were a little puzzled.
After all, although the media said that Arsenal conceded a bit too many goals, who made the last game lose without Ye Luo.
But is it worth such a drastic change for Arsenal?
This is not a small repair in a certain position. From the perspective of the player's position, this is a change in the entire tactical system!
Risky, too risky! !
You know, Arsenal are still at the top of the league standings. Would it be too hasty to make such a big change!
Although Arsenal lost the last game.
But that's because the team lacks Ye Luo, the absolute core player.
Moreover, with such a long season, which team dares to say that it will not lose?
Yes, it was a miracle that Arsenal won the championship unbeaten in the season.
But since it is a miracle, it is unlikely to happen often—can something that happens often be called a miracle?
Losing a game is not terrible.
But if the team's tactical system is changed rashly, the team's previous good momentum will be severely damaged.
This is scary!
For Arsenal, which is still at the top of the list, it is a risk and a gamble to make such a big change in the tactical system.
"Is it really time for Arsenal to make such a drastic change?"
Andy Gray couldn't help shaking his head and said.
His partner Lineker, however, has a different opinion.
"Arsenal really need to change their defense, especially they have to make up their minds to exclude some players who are too glassy from the main lineup. The team needs to maintain a stable main frame, which is conducive to Arsenal's championship performance this season. , This is true. Arsenal is undoubtedly a member of the championship group, but we all know that defense wins the championship, and it is actually reasonable for Wenger to choose to make changes on the defensive end.”
Lineker looked at Ye Luo's position.
"What's more, Arsenal still has Ye Luo! Haven't you noticed? Ye Luo's position has also changed!"
At this time, Andy Gray also noticed Ye Luo's position. He moved back and forth between the front waist line and the forward line, and his number of touches and passes also increased significantly.
"Yellow has almost no shortcomings. He catches the ball in an embarrassing position, breaks through, passes, shoots from long distances, grabs points, etc.! Will Arsenal's offense be weakened by this? I don't think so!"
Lineker saw the ingenuity of Arsenal's arrangement, and let Chamberlain play the midfielder. While the defense became more stable, it also gave Ye Luo more space-of course, it can also be said to let Ye Luo needs to take on more responsibilities.
At this time, Ye Luo was active in the area between Chelsea's two midfielders and the back line. His movement made it necessary for Chelsea to take care of it.
This distorted Chelsea's defensive formation.
Coupled with the huge threat of Ye Luo swaying under his nose, Chelsea's two midfielders did not dare to press up for assists, and even Oscar had to retreat back to participate in defense. At this level, Chelsea's offense also was weakened.
"Wenger seems to have let Ye Luo retreat to the midfield?!"
Duan Xuan was a little surprised.
Now on the surface, it seems that Ye Luo is indeed playing in midfield.
"What a mess! This position is obviously not what Ye Luo is good at!"
"Ye Luo should play as a striker, he wants to score goals! Goals are his specialty!"
"Wenger is working again, isn't this old man confused?"
On the Internet, Dragon Kingdom fans also started arguing.
The football masters expressed their opinions one after another.
Most people don't want to see Ye Luo too far away from the goal.
Because in everyone's belief.
The farther you are from the players, the less likely you are to score.
Let Ye Luo play in midfield?
Isn't this going far away, picking sesame seeds and losing watermelon, weakening Ye Luo's scoring statistics?
Confused!
Wenger is confused!
Those who know the ball are heartbroken.
messed up.
It's all messed up!
A certain pounce, a certain post, and on the scarf, are all the sounds of torture to Professor Wenger.
