Star Coach

Chapter 439 On-the-spot reaction

Chelsea equalized the score before the halftime, and Ancelotti was very excited. "In the second half, our focus is to attack the middle. Don't give their weak midfield any chance."

"Lampard, strengthen the strength of the rush to prevent Modric from playing."

Ancelotti's right-hand man Wilkins held the tactical board and arranged the tactics for Ancelotti, "Remember, the middle, you must bomb from the middle. Their Cahill and Hummels can't stand the pressure, we can definitely reverse the game."

Ancelotti is like a wise general. He only needs to give orders, and Wilkins can handle ordinary things very well. At the end, Ancelotti quietly asked, "I heard that you have a conflict with Emero? Will it affect your work?"

Emero is Chelsea's football director and one of the club's senior executives. Seeing that Wilkins has a good relationship with the players, he seems a little unhappy and even whispered in Abramovich's ear.

Wilkins didn't take it to heart, "Don't worry, I will get it done."

On the other side, Jiangshan was also arranging tactics. He was a little distressed. He had no capable assistants around him, and he had to do everything himself, which was very hard.

If one of the former assistant coaches stayed around, his work would be at least half as easy. Starting from Tuchel, to Guardiola, Simeone, and then to Pochettino, Jiang Shan's assistant coaches changed one after another, and they all started their coaching journey.

"In the second half, our attack focuses on the two flanks." Jiang Shan's face was calm, "Wait a minute, Reus and David Silva will come on the bench to give them the final blow."

Jiang Shan was full of confidence. After the first half of the test, Chelsea would definitely attack the middle in the second half. He knew Ancelotti's tactics too well, so he reacted in advance.

Ancelotti is a very methodical guy. In the first few games of the season, he kept scoring big scores and was so fierce that even Manchester United and West Ham were suppressed. This game is a good opportunity for West Ham to overtake Chelsea in the standings.

Chelsea won all three games in the first three games and stood at the top of the standings. In the last round, West Ham United and Manchester United tied, and they need to win this game to overtake by 1 point.

"Mr. Mason, which team do you think has the advantage in the second half?" Hayley McQueen grinned and asked.

"There is no doubt that Chelsea has a higher chance of winning. They won all three games by a large margin, showing strong fighting power. Facing West Ham United, they also have a psychological advantage." Mason talked freely, "West Ham United has performed well this season, but facing the defending champion, their strength is still a little weak."

"But West Ham United's players are very young, and they will definitely win the championship in the future." Hayley McQueen argued, "The second half has begun, do you guess, will Reus play?"

"It shouldn't be, Bale performed very well in the first half, and Reus' time has not yet come." Mason said with certainty.

Snap...

The players came out, and Paul Mason immediately calmed down. Reus had already played, and he replaced Bale, who performed very well in the first half. Another new player, David Silva, replaced Ballack.

West Ham's lineup changed to a 4231 position, with Kroos and Parker as double defensive midfielders, Modric as attacking midfielder, and two wingers, Reus and David Silva, and Lewandowski still appeared in the center position.

The second half of the game began.

Chelsea rushed to the middle without hesitation, but Parker firmly defended the defensive midfielder position and would not leave at all. Kroos assisted from the side and finally withstood Chelsea's attack.

Kroos took advantage of Parker's position to grab the ball from Lampard's feet and passed it to the wing. David Silva immediately rushed up and sent it forward. Glen Johnson had already passed the half court.

He was still rushing forward, sweeping the middle. While Modric twisted the ball, he turned around and passed Mikel with his hands. His movements were like antelope hanging horns, very gentle. He did not stick to the ball. After passing, the ball flew out from his toes.

David Silva just inserted from behind, and also did not stop the ball transfer. Lewandowski retreated slightly, stepped on his foot, and the ball rolled over. On the other side, Baines had already inserted near the bottom line.

He attracted Ivanovic's defense, passed the ball back to Reus, who was lurking near the 45-degree angle of the penalty area, received the ball, took a step, attracted Terry's defense, and Essien was also attracted.

The ball passed between the two people, and the narrow gap was caught. Reus's passing skills have grown a lot in the past two years. Lewandowski received the ball and was murderous.

Facing Alex, he took a step forward. Alex defended closely, and he suddenly dribbled the ball, dribbled the ball, and passed the ball. The movements were done in one go, without any sense of sluggishness of a big forward.

During the training, Jiangshan carefully adjusted every technical move of Lewandowski for him. He has a high level of understanding and rapid progress. He is a natural killer on the forward line.

At this moment, Lewandowski broke into the penalty area, shook off Alex, faced the attacking Cech, calmly shot, and the angle was tricky. When Cech sat on the ground to block, the ball had already slipped past him.

The movements were clean and neat, and the rhythm was great.

Jiang Shan stood on the sidelines and breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally we are leading again, my tactical changes were successful."

When it comes to on-the-spot command, Jiang Shan is famous for his sharpness in the coaching world. The most criticized problem of Ancelotti is that his adjustments in the league are very poor, especially his on-the-spot reaction, which is almost like a pig...

In the 55th minute of the game, West Ham striker Lewandowski scored a goal and the score changed again, 2:1.

West Ham took the lead again, and there was still time left for Chelsea, but they needed changes and continued to attack the center, which was obviously playing into West Ham's hands. Parker is waiting to get the number of steals and interceptions!

Ancelotti doesn't have many cards in hand. Many of Chelsea's players are of the same type. Ramires and David Luiz have not yet adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League, and are a bit suspected of parallel imports.

Looking back at West Ham, their tactical flexibility is obviously better than Chelsea's, and Chelsea's performance is also good. Since Ancelotti took charge of the team, the spectator football that Abramovich hopes to see is finally possible.

But now it seems that the team is not as popular as West Ham.

Several players in West Ham's frontcourt are full of intelligence. Modric and David Silva cooperated, and the two of them tore apart Chelsea's defense. Coupled with Royce's agile movement, Lewandowski's support and intimidation Strength, Chelsea's defense is under increasing pressure.

Less than a moment later, West Ham won another chance. Lewandowski pushed forward with the ball, distributed it to the wing, and passed it to Glen Johnson. Glenn immediately took off and passed forward to David Silva. Silva attracted Cole's shot. attention.

Then with a coquettish arch of the foot, the ball passed over Cole's head and landed accurately on Lewandowski's head. Lewandowski's header was blocked by Cech, but Modric's supplementary shot opened Chelsea's door again. .

The score was rewritten again, 3:1, and no one could have predicted the course of the game before the game.
