From coaching Real Madrid

Judging from the first day's game, Ancelotti's Chelsea actually still has quite a problem.

Hull City narrowly avoided relegation in the Premier League last season, but its own strength is not weak.

When this team finished the ninth round last season, it was once ranked third in the Premier League, and its points were the same as Chelsea, which was ranked second. It could be called a dark horse in the Premier League last season.

Although the performance has been declining since then, before Christmas, after the 18th round, the team was still ranked sixth.

Isn’t this report card amazing enough?

But after the Christmas schedule, the team's performance plummeted, and in the end they almost fell into the relegation zone. At the end of the season, they only finished 17th in the league.

From this point we can see how crucial the Christmas and winter break schedule is for a Premier League team.

This team has a very interesting statistic in the Premier League last season, that is, after they took the lead, they were never reversed by their opponents, which shows that this is a very stable team.

But there is a first time for everything.

No, they were reversed by Chelsea in the first round of the new season.

Although it was a reversal, from the scene, Chelsea also had an overwhelming advantage, but in fact, anyone who has watched the game will find that Chelsea played really difficult.

Why?

Because their ball advancement is very problematic.

This is why, after the game, Ancelotti expressed the hope of introducing a right wing attacker.

…

Compared with Chelsea on the first day, Manchester United's game against Birmingham the next day was exactly the same.

The only difference is that Chelsea lost one goal first and then scored two goals to reverse the situation, while Manchester United relied on Rooney's goal to win the game.

As a newly promoted team, Birmingham has a lot of experience in the Premier League. Their shrinking defense makes Manchester United's ball advancement problematic.

Rooney returned to his most familiar center position, partnering with Berbatov, and Valencia played on the right.

This veteran veteran performed very well in the first round. Apart from Rooney, who was elected as the best player, he is the best player in the Manchester United team.

Rencia’s outstanding personal abilities.

More importantly, his cooperation with Fabio on the right made the right wing become the source of Manchester United's offense.

But the problem is that Berbatov's performance was too sluggish.

How depressed is it?

After the game, the Manchester Evening News directly satirized the Bulgarian center, "Neuyiner ran more than you last night and was more active than you. He contributed at least eight interceptions and one steal. What about you? Is your jersey wet?"

"

Ferguson only allowed Berbatov to play for 70 minutes before replacing him with Owen, which shows his dissatisfaction with the Bulgarian center.

This is where Manchester United's problem arises now.

If the center forward feeds the midfielder, Berbatov is indispensable. Rooney alone is far from enough.

But the problem is, Berbatov is unreliable.

Judging from the first round, the combination of Nani and Evra on the left, and the combination of Valencia and Fabio on the right, all performed very well. The key is that Berbatov in the center is not strong, otherwise

, Manchester United can also score a big score.

But who can do anything about this kind of thing?

Because of this, it was revealed after the game that Ferguson might introduce Uruguayan center Cavani from Naples.

But the price of the Serie A top scorer is not cheap, and Ferguson and Manchester United may not be willing to pay this money.

…

The one that surprised Gao Shen the most was Benitez’s Liverpool.

This was also a game that Gao Shen and the coaching staff watched live.

At London's White Hart Lane, Benitez used his best tactic of a pair of four-two-three midfielders, using the newly-joined Biglia and Mascherano to form Argentina's double midfielders.

These two players are good friends with each other and are very familiar with each other. Once they partner up, they will be alive immediately.

In front is Gerrard, and further ahead is Torres, with Babel and Kuyint on both sides.

Throughout the game, Tottenham were completely suppressed by their opponents.

Modric was struggling to support himself in the midfield, but facing Liverpool's midfield, the Croatian could not stand alone.

If Gao Shen remembers correctly, Tottenham Hotspur really took off after Van der Vaart joined. The Dutchman became Modric's assistant in the midfield, sharing a lot of defensive pressure with him, which made Tottenham

Tottenham's midfield is moving.

But now, relying on Modric alone, there is nothing he can do against the midfield consisting of Biglia, Gerrard and Mascherano.

However, Liverpool did not score in the first half.

The reason is simple, the Red Army lacks speed.

Biglia's several passes, especially the long passes, are quite skillful. He has Xabi Alonso's posture and strong organizational ability. Coupled with Mascherano's assistance, Liverpool's midfield is running smoothly.

There is no problem, but Torres alone is not enough in the front.

So, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have become an interesting stalemate.

The Red Army has the advantage in the midfield and can create opportunities; Tottenham Hotspur's defense restricts Torres and Gerrard, preventing Liverpool's offense from threatening.

Benitez replaced Babel with Benayoun in the 60th minute, which activated Liverpool's offense.

In the end, he scored two goals in a row and defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 away from home.

This also surprised Gao Shen, and at the same time he also felt pressure.

Liverpool is indeed stronger than the Red Army he knew in his previous life. The emergence of Biglia has replaced Xavi Alonso's vacancy. In this way, Liverpool's midfield problem has been solved.

Although the offense is still not strong, when has the Red Army's offense been stronger?

No matter what happens, with the help of Torres, Kuyint, Benayoun and others, they can still compete in the Premier League.

Gao Shen now really feels like he shot himself in the foot.

Of course, this can't be entirely blamed on him, after all, he is just a head coach.

Although Biglia was trained by him, how can Gaoshen prevent him from transferring?

…

Due to the World Cup in South Africa, this season's Premier League has entered a double-match week from the beginning.

After the first round of the league, three days later it will be the second round of the league.

Manchester City did not have much time to adjust and prepare. After playing Blackburn Rovers, they immediately moved into preparations for the second round against Everton. The coaching staff, in particular, had made sufficient preparations early.

"Judging from the first round, Arsenal's weapon in defeating Everton is passing."

Lucas is the team's analyst, analyzing Everton's current state based on the first round of games.

"I took a look and found that Arsenal's passing speed and accuracy in the first round were very high, and the efficiency was amazing. It can be seen that Wenger's team really entered the fast lane from the beginning and was in great shape."

There is one statistic that best reflects the excellent state of Wenger's team, and that is the number of shots on goal.

Nine shots were on goal in the game and six were scored.

We really can't be too harsh on Everton's goalkeeper Howard, because several of Arsenal's shooting opportunities were very good, and what the goalkeeper can do is very limited. This also reflects that Arsenal's current ability to create opportunities is really strong.

"According to the reliable information we have received, the two main players, Arteta and Jagielka, are still recovering from injuries and will basically not appear in the second round."

Arteta is the core of Everton's midfield and performs very well, while Jagielka is the backbone of the team's defense. Both players support Everton's midfield and backcourt.

In the first round of the league, Everton suffered a disastrous home defeat, which had something to do with their absence.

"Are you sure neither of these two people can appear?" Carlo asked cautiously.

Lucas nodded firmly, "I have combined the intelligence from several lines of information, and I can be very sure that none of them will be able to appear."

Everyone immediately looked at Gao Shen.

Arsenal's passing and receiving ability is indeed very strong, and their running ability is also strong, but Manchester City is not weak either.

Although today's Manchester City has not fully adjusted the team's entire technical and tactical skills, I dare not say that it will be stronger than today's Arsenal, but at least it will not be weak, right?

In fact, this is really not an underestimation of oneself, or an overestimation of Arsenal.

As we all know, Arsenal always performs very well in the first half of the season, but after the winter break, they lose their posture. One of the main reasons for this is that Arsenal players move a lot and consume too much. Once the winter break comes and

I couldn't keep up in the second half.

Therefore, Arsenal was really strong in the first half.

In the current Manchester City, when the two wingers on the left and right have not been fully activated, and Robben has not yet adapted and played at the right wing position, Manchester City's offensive firepower may not necessarily be better than Arsenal.

"I think after the first round match, Moyes will definitely realize the problem. We have the ability to pass and control the ball that is not weaker than Arsenal. Moyes also knows it well. He will never be able to do what he did in the first round.

, let us pass the ball." Sarri reminded.

When everyone thinks about it, it makes sense.

Jagielka and Arteta are absent, and Everton can't find two people to replace them.

Arsenal was allowed to run as they pleased in the first round. If Moyes fails to learn from experience and allows Manchester City to continue passing and controlling the ball as he pleases, then Moyes might as well go back to his hometown in Scotland to herd sheep.

Therefore, as Sarri said, Everton, who are playing away games in the second round, will definitely pay more attention to defense, and even adopt a defensive posture, trying to stabilize their position and get out of the shadow of the first round defeat.

We ask ourselves, if it were Gao Shen, we would do the same thing.

There was only three days between the first round and the second round. How could Moyes adjust?

Therefore, the most likely thing is that Moyes adopts defensive tactics as Sarri analyzed.

As long as they get a draw at the Intihad Stadium in the second round and escape unscathed, it will be a good result for Everton. After all, they did lose badly in the first round.

"So, the second round will begin to test our positional warfare ability." Gao Shen chuckled.

Everyone also laughed.

The competition in the Premier League is really fierce, and the strength of each opponent is not simple.

"Then take some time to practice set-piece offense, and also practice Giroud's high forward tactics." Gao Shen arranged.

Everyone nodded and accepted the order.

The Premier League's first fire is burning, and Gao Shen still needs to make it burn brighter.

Today's Premier League is like a chaotic world, completely different from the Premier League in Gao Shen's previous life, but this can only arouse Gao Shen's fighting spirit and desire to win.

If nothing else works, why not watch the live striptease show at Inker?
