Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Chapter 280 What, you Arsenal also want to be a news talker?

Li Ang's interview speech after the team defeated Sporting Lisbon made many Sporting Lisbon fans feel very angry after the game!

Chelsea's performance in the Champions League since last season has indeed been very strong, but in the eyes of Sporting Lisbon fans:

Chelsea is such a big and rich team, and if they play well, they play well, but our season investment is only a fraction of yours, so you can't make fun of us after winning the game, right?

As a result, before the Chelsea fans could give any explanation, the neutral fan group who was not too concerned about the excitement spoke up for Li Ang:

Hey, don’t get me wrong!

The Little Lion doesn't just mean that your team's performance is rubbish, he means that except for Chelsea, the other three teams in this group performed rubbish!

Well, the group of injured fans suddenly expanded from Sporting Lisbon to the remaining three fans in Group G.

Schalke 04 innocently shot.

But at this moment, Schalke 04 fans were basically stunned by the result of their team's draw with Maribor.

Showing garbage?

Isn’t that telling the truth!

Just after the first round of the Champions League group stage, when Sporting Lisbon was tied with Maribor, Schalke 04 fans were still gloating.

After all, it was expected that they would not be able to beat Chelsea in the first round.

But Schalke 04 fans do not believe that their team will collapse like Sporting Lisbon, unable to even handle a Slovenian league team.

Well, now the boomerang really darts back to themselves.

Schalke 04 fans just felt their mentality exploded after the second round of the Champions League group stage.

In the face of media publicity, Li Ang made a speech and ridiculed reports. Even many Schalke 04 fans felt that Li Ang was right!

If Schalke 04 securely wins Maribor in this group stage, it won't be able to withstand Li Ang's ridicule, right?

In the eyes of more neutral European fans, there is nothing wrong with Li Ang's speech.

Of course, fans who don't like it can also say that Li Ang has an inflated mentality.

If Chelsea fails to win Maribor in the future, what Li Ang said today will definitely make him a clown in public opinion.

But if Chelsea qualify this year with a record of unbeatable wins in the Champions League group, Li Ang's "madness" will only become his confidence advantage.

Anyway, at present, many young fans like Li Ang's straightforward character and confident attitude.

Of course, after pretending to be cool and returning to London, Li Ang will inevitably have to be nagged by Mourinho again.

Li Ang felt that there was nothing wrong with him occasionally telling the truth and being more confident based on his strength.

And at this point, Li Ang feels that Mourinho is very similar to him.

The difference is that Mourinho usually likes to be arrogant before the game. If he wins after the game, he will say more good things about the opponent.

He himself doesn't like to talk too much before the game. He prefers to wait until after the game to express his confidence in the game based on the results.

However, despite the nagging thoughts in his heart, Li Ang, faced with Mourinho's teachings, kept saying that he understood and would definitely change in the future.

As for whether he will really change or "I understand this time, I will definitely do it next time", then it depends on Li Ang's own accuracy in understanding Mourinho's mood~

Looking at the recent period, after winning two consecutive Champions League victories and currently leading the second place in the Champions League group by four points, Mourinho was so happy that his whole face became much kinder.

Li Ang looked at the recent team's schedule and immediately understood.

The next round of the Premier League will start in five days, and their entire team will have enough rest time to prepare.

Moreover, after the seventh round of the Premier League, there will be another two-week international match day.

Without schedule pressure, after winning the seventh round of the Premier League, Chelsea will be able to achieve the "small goal" of ten consecutive wins in all competitions after the start of the new season.

Never mind whether Chelsea's record will fluctuate after the international break.

At least one and a half months after the start of the new season, Chelsea has achieved perfect results.

With a goal of ten consecutive wins at the start of the season right in front of them, the players in the Chelsea team are naturally very motivated.

However, seeing the opponents they will face in the next round of the league, Mourinho and his assistants still dare not relax their vigilance too much.

After returning to London, Chelsea's main players who played in the Champions League all got a day off.

But Mourinho only rested for half a day before he once again devoted himself to intense preparations.

At the same time, the British media, which had just finished streaming the Champions League matches, were also non-stop hyping up the upcoming London Derby!

In the seventh round of the Premier League, Chelsea will sit at home and face the challenge of Arsenal, another powerful Premier League team in London.

Following the match between Chelsea and Manchester City in the fifth round of the Premier League in the new season, this is another focus battle that has attracted the attention of media and fans across England!

This Arsenal team in the new season is different from what it used to be. This year, Arsene Wenger led the team to achieve extremely fast results, changing the previous pattern of being tepid in the first half of the season and only showing strength in the second half.

After the first six rounds of the Premier League, Arsenal currently has four wins and two draws, ranking only behind Chelsea with 14 points.

Moreover, in the last round of the league, they had just defeated their archrival Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 at home.

In the past second round of the Champions League group stage, Arsenal defeated Galatasaray 4-0.

Two crisp victories are right in front of us, and Arsenal's recent game form is also outstanding to the naked eye.

Just like Manchester City, this year's Arsenal's overall strength has improved slightly compared to last summer.

After all, the lineup and tactics have gone through a full season of running-in. The current Arsenal, that is, the offensive strength of the wing has not been improved through generations.

Their forward and midfield defense are still at the top level in the entire Premier League.

Although Mourinho feels that Arsenal is still no match for Chelsea in terms of the strength of the lineup, the two teams have not officially competed in the new season.

With full caution and careful observation, Mourinho made final tactical preparations before the battle with Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on October 5.

Li Ang also carefully observed all Arsenal players during the warm-up before the game.

To be honest, there is not much difference in the composition of Arsenal's lineup this season and last season.

After all, the ownership of Arsenal Club's equity is still in a tug-of-war, and the two big owners of the team want to swallow each other up before making the next investment.

In this case, it is impossible for the bosses on both sides to spend too much money to allow Wenger to continue to spend a lot of money.

So after experiencing the lavish purchases last season, Mr. Wen returned to his old days of careful management.

Xiaoyao continues to cultivate, and those in the youth training talent pool who can be promoted to the first team will be promoted, and those who cannot be promoted will be resold.

However, with Cavani and Tularan introduced last season supporting the team, Arsenal's current lineup is not a big problem.

The only premise is that these two people must not be hurt.

If one is injured, Arsenal's record will be unstable; if two are injured, Arsenal will have to go back to the route of fighting for the fourth place.

Therefore, facing such an Arsenal team, although Li Ang attaches great importance to them, he will not regard them as a major competitor in the league like Manchester City.

The bench is not thick enough. The main lineup is strong, but the young players in the rotation are too talented.

And there is another fatal point, that is, many players in Arsenal's current main lineup are too brittle.

Arteta was injured just after the third round of the Premier League in the new season and was unable to continue playing.

Flamini, who is currently partnering with Tularan, seems to be performing well, but if he is not careful later, he may end up lying on the hospital bed to keep Arteta company.

As for the frontcourt, let’s not talk about Walcott, an old patient.

Wilshere, who currently firmly controls one of Arsenal's main positions, is the same as Flamini.

At present, his performance seems to be fine and his body is quite healthy, but he is worried that he will get injured for no reason at any time and then be in bed for half the season.

And to be honest, the midfield and frontcourt combination of Wilshere and Cazorla will have no problem playing against most teams in the Premier League.

But once they meet Chelsea, their shortcomings in confrontation will be infinitely magnified.

Anyway, Li Ang is quite confident about winning today's so-called big battle.

There is no way, since he debuted, he has never lacked the experience of playing against the so-called technical team.

It can be said that he now knows how to compete with these teams and restrain the performance of the core players of these teams with his eyes closed.

If Tularang could be five years younger, the professor would not even mention training another Vieira to partner with him, but would only use Alexander Song from around 2010 to partner with Tularang to form a double midfielder.

Then this Arsenal can take off directly!

Li Ang will also regard them as his and Chelsea's biggest rivals for defending the Premier League title!

It is a pity that Arsenal now only has an old Tulalang and Flamini and Arteta who are taking turns lying on the hospital bed.

Kirkland is just a mediocre choice, he can't support Arsenal's backbone.

Li Ang does not believe that without a strong enough waist, the so-called beautiful football can truly succeed on the field and become popular in the entire football world.

When Guardiola led Barcelona to gain football glory, he never worried about the midfielder position.

So a team really wants to rise and prosper.

If the forward line is not good enough, we can slowly make substitutions and adjustments. If the defense line is not stable enough, we can also slowly try and make mistakes, and spend one or two seasons to buy people and adjust them.

But if the waist is not strong enough, then there is absolutely no possibility of a successful rise!

And looking at Flamini, who was doing warm-up exercises with Tularan on the court at the moment, Li Ang soon had something to worry about.

At around 1:30 pm local time in London, with the referee's whistle, Arsenal, who were playing away games, kicked off first, and quickly started an offensive test against Chelsea, which was taking a defensive stance.

Arsenal is not Manchester City. They will not put much effort into controlling the ball in the midfield and backcourt. Overall, the current Arsenal offense still needs to emphasize forward penetration.

Therefore, Chelsea did not directly use the crazy running tactics of full-court high pressure against Arsenal like they did against Manchester City.

The crazy running tactic is easy to use, but it is still too serious for the players' physical fitness and health.

And after many experiments, all Chelsea players and coaching staff have come to a conclusion on the timing of this tactic.

If you use crazy running tactics, you must establish a large enough score advantage in the first seventy minutes of the game.

Otherwise, once the game exceeds 70 minutes, Chelsea will not need the opponent to attack and press, and its tactics will collapse due to physical exhaustion.

This situation can be improved through constant physical distribution experiments. In some extreme cases, there is no problem in gritting one's teeth and persisting for the entire game.

But at least today, against Arsenal, Mourinho felt there was no need to take risks.

Li Ang told him before the game that he was confident that he could produce results against Arsenal's midfield and backfield defense.

Mourinho was also interested in the fact that his ace spoke with such confidence.

Today, his tactical arrangement was relatively conventional. Facing Arsenal, which mainly played 4231, he arranged a starting formation of 433.

He also wanted to see what method Li Ang planned to use today to directly penetrate Arsenal's double midfielder combination.

Just over ten minutes into the first half, Li Ang ended his movement observation and took the initiative to retreat for the ball for the first time.

After turning around after receiving the ball, Li Ang smashed the ball first to avoid Wilshere's steal, and then he directly moved forward and ran towards Flamini who was standing in the front!

As Tulalang is the insurance closest to his own defender in Arsenal's entire midfield, he naturally cannot lose his position at will to double-team Li Ang.

After thinking for a second, Tulalan commanded Flamini to retreat with him. When Cazorla caught up, Flamini and Cazorla could double-team Leon.

This is the safest way Tulalang thinks to deal with Li Ang.

Flamini naturally had no objections. He had been teammates with Li Ang in Milan for half a season.

Not to mention Li Ang's other aspects, his speed and confrontation ability are completely behind him.

Flamini didn't want to become Li Ang's defensive background, so he retreated very actively.

But Li Ang also understands Flamini's playing habits and has already calculated before the game. How can he give him time to retreat calmly during the game?

The first time he pushed forward, Li Ang had already increased his speed. The retreat of Flamini and Tularan just gave him room to accelerate further!

So Flamini soon discovered to his horror that no matter how timely he retreated, it seemed that he could not catch up as quickly as Li Ang accelerated with the ball and charged in!

Seeing that they were about to retreat to the line of their own penalty area if they retreated again, neither Cazorla nor Wilshere had returned to their defense.

Flamini gritted his teeth and could only rush towards Leon!

And at the moment when Flamini rushed towards him and made a move to grab him, Liang shook his ankle and sent a through ball towards the Arsenal penalty area!

Hazard inserted diagonally from the wing, looking for the area behind Flamini!

Before Koscielny could attack and destroy the ball, Hazard made a smart spike fake move. After getting away from Koscielny, he shot a low shot directly into the middle of the Arsenal goal with his left foot!

The football rolled into Arsenal's goal before Szczesny went to the ground!

The moment Li Ang saw the football successfully crossing the line, he also showed a familiar smile on his face.

Factory, listen to my advice. If you want to be a news talker in the Premier League, you better practice your waist!
