Step by Step to Win

The whistle blew and the game started. When 22 people from both sides were running on the court, standing on the edge of the court, Wenger raised his eyes and watched the game nervously. After a while, he could clearly see the running of the players on both sides. After making it clear that the advantage was on the Arsenal side, Wenger let out a long cry.

His sigh contains too much emotion. He sighed and relaxed a little: After the game started, Wolfsburg did not rush to attack, even in the face of Arsenal's now greatly damaged team, Wolfsburg still did not dare to take it lightly, still chose to take its time. Wenger is well aware of the unreliability of his defensive players. He hopes to give his defensive players some warm-up time. He can't help but feel relieved to see that the opponent is not in a hurry to attack.

However, on the other hand, Wenger also felt melancholy in his heart: in recent years, since the change in the English tax system, the strength of the British team has become worse and worse. A few years ago, the Premier League Champions League semi-finals accounted for the third situation now can no longer be seen. Liverpool has fallen, and I don’t know how long it will take to re-emerge. Chelsea completed its merits last season, but now it is also facing the pain of a replacement. Manchester United and Arsenal are still struggling, but seeing their team need to play cautiously even facing a team at the level of Wolfsburg, Wenger feels a little sad.

Such Arsenal made him feel a little sad.

Such a team really doesn't look like his Arsenal-and speaking of it, even if you don't talk about the current results, only the scene of the game, how does this team resemble Wenger's Arsenal?

Who doesn't know. Arsenal's offense is the best in the Premier League? Who doesn't know that the combination of Arsenal's movement is a beautiful scene in the Premier League and even the world's football? Even when Barcelona's offense touched the world. There are still fans who are fascinated by Arsenal's extremely fast offensive trend. Even if the technique is not as delicate as the La Liga team, has Arsenal's offensive heart ever lost to anyone? But now, looking at the field, what are they playing? Thinking about his reputation, Wenger looked embarrassed to say that this is his team.

On the court, Arsenal are launching an offensive. Gibbs on the left road rushed forward with the ball. He made a simple cooperation with Gervinho in front of him and faced the interception of Wolfsburg. He passed the ball to Gervinho, and Gervinho received the ball. He didn't seem to think about anything. He took the ball directly to the baseline without turning his head back. Until he rushed to the ground, he did it back and kicked the ball to Gibbs behind him.

Gibbs took the ball and rushed into the penalty area. But when he got here, he didn't seem to know what to do when he was used to playing full-backs. He didn't know whether to bring it or pass it, and seemed to be stunned for a while. At this time, Giroud had also ran up, reaching out for the ball in the middle. Gibbs kicked the ball towards Giroud with a pass, as if the football under his feet would burn him.

Giroud is above the middle road. The foot stops the ball next, turns around and wants to shoot, but his action is too obvious. All the intentions were clearly revealed. Before his leg swing was successful, Wolfsburg defender Nardo broke the ball at his feet with one kick, passed the ball forward, and launched a counterattack.

An offense was blocked in this way, and Wenger turned his head depressed. I don't want to watch the players playing on the field anymore. These guys played really badly and made him very angry.

Wenger has reason to be angry: really speaking. Although Wenger's team strength is full of injuries and serious losses, the tactics Wenger designed for the team are still very good. In his tactical design, the two poorly defended wingers simply ran back and forth, directly entering the penalty area and directly participating in the attack, forming the possibility of multiple points of scoring. The two wingers should also shoulder the defensive function and participate in the defense. Although this will cause them to consume too much energy and have to replace them in 70 minutes, but fortunately, the Arsenal lineup is thick enough for someone to change. There is a pivot in the middle, and the two sides are inserted in turn, relying on running and the thickness of the lineup to make up for the physical problems, and replace the top shooter with multiple threats-Wenger's tactical design has no problems. For the existing personnel, he is Thought about what to do.

It's a pity that no matter how well his tactics are designed, when it comes to using them, there will be a lot of problems. This attack made Wenger very depressed: he really didn’t know who he was more helpless with. Gervinho’s breakthrough with the ball would only go to the bottom of the triangle, or shoot inward. He wanted to see him for a long time. Passing the ball is harder than reaching the sky. This former Ligue 1 extraordinary king really couldn't adapt to a better tactical system. He wanted more coordination, but it seemed that Gervinho didn't understand what he was talking about.

And Gibbs was asked to break into the penalty area to end the game in Wenger's new tactics, but he still has no attacker's mind. I think Wenger also used Ashley Cole back then, but now that Gibbs doesn’t know how to handle the ball when he is near the penalty area, he can only lament that compared to the top full-backs, this is pure lack of talent. .

As for Giroud... Wenger didn't know what to say.

Arsenal's players need to worry a lot, and one of Wenger's most headaches is their striker Giroud. The French player used to be Ligue 1's top scorer, but after moving to Arsenal, he didn't have the level that a Ligue 1 top scorer should have.

Wenger certainly knows that Giroud is inferior to the top striker. Football is no longer what it used to be. The media is over-developed. Players have been noticed from the moment they show their talents. There are very few stars who are rich but unknown. It is very difficult to find good players at a low price. Even if Wenger has always been regarded as an eye-witness, it is impossible to spend more than 10 million to buy a player worth 40 million, Giroud’s level. Worthy of his worth, but just worthy of his worth, Wenger is not ignorant of this.

It's just that people always have hope for their players: any coach wants his striker's name to be scary and outstanding. Wenger also hopes that the forward of his team is Henry, Bergkamp, ​​Van Persie, even Adebayor, they are enough to make people scared.

It is a pity that those players are not in his hands, he only has Giroud.

Giroud is a player with a good enough body and heading ability. His style of playing is also a typical way of playing for a big center. Standing, grabbing points, headers, thigh swing shots, these skills, he is very proficient-unfortunately, almost all of these abilities are not available in Arsenal.

Gervinho almost never crosses, and Chamberlain or Walcott are more keen to shoot inside. His advantage can't be played out at Arsenal, and Wenger can't develop tactics around him. Wenger can only choose to change him. More often, what Wenger needs is that the forward is a fulcrum, a fulcrum that can pass the ball, can do the ball, but unfortunately, Giroud can't do this well.

His passing skills are really terrible. A pass success rate of more than 60% is simply intolerable for a forward of a strong team. With this passing rate, it's impossible to do anything like a fulcrum. Moreover, he has almost no room to play in the offensive system, and the technique at his feet is not delicate enough to dribble, which is not a big problem. However, the ball is not stopped well, and the preparation for the shot is too large. Such a problem makes Wenger extremely speechless.

He doesn't expect to find a Van Persie-level player to replace the Dutchman who left, but what he needs is a similar player who can play well on the court. Even if he doesn't have the skills of Van Persie, but at least he has to play a few decent footballs...Speaking of which, the opponent's two forwards look good.

Wolfsburg is launching an attack at this time. Matic, who got the ball in the midfield, and Makoto Hasebe controlled the rhythm of the game a little bit and let their players run forward before passing the ball to Turan in front. Turan cut to the middle, and Rong had already rushed up at this time. Turan pretended to cooperate with him, and then easily got rid of it with one kick, throwing off Coquelin.

Coquelin's performance made Wenger sigh depressed: Summer sold Song without supplementing the midfielder, it seems really a wrong decision. Coquelin is 22 years old, and he still doesn't grow up at all, and this kind of midfielder basically ends up. Wolf Castle dared to delay for a while before attacking, this was completely ignored by him.

And the players of Wolfsburg do have this capital. After Turan passed Koculin, Mandzukic had already greeted him. Turan made a straight kick and sent the ball to Gao Shunyao's feet, and then ran into the penalty area by himself.

Mandzukic ran almost at the same time as Turan~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He and Turan ran in different directions, which also affected Arsenal's defense. However, Arsenal’s defense was not immediately outside. Vermalen stared closely at Mandzukic, and the full-back also retracted, watching the inserted Turan, the front of the penalty area, Arteta and Koscielny. He also rushed to Gao Shunyao one after another, trying to intercept the ball at his feet.

With his back to the goal, Gao Shunyao also made a move at this time. He leaned on his body to withstand Koscielny, and just before Arteta grabbed it, he knocked the ball horizontally and kicked the ball out. He rolled over and followed, and he had to pass the ball to Mandzukic in the penalty area. Koscielny immediately wanted to intercept, but Gao Shunyao buckled his feet and found an open space in front of the penalty area.

In the face of these gaps, Gao Shunyao directly kicked out with a long shot!

Wenger also slapped his thigh abruptly at this time: this kind of player is what he needs: to be able to hold the ball in the frontcourt and be able to guide the attack as a pivot. To be able to have a beautiful long shot when needed, this is a truly outstanding forward, a forward that a good team needs!

Unfortunately, he is not in his team, he is the enemy of Arsenal, this game, his goal is to beat Arsenal. (To be continued)
