Step by Step to Win

Before the game against Chelsea, Wolfsburg players had thought many times about what lineup Chelsea would play against Wolfsburg. Although Mourinho’s conservative and cautious is well known in the world, his team is nothing but Wolfsburg, not Bayern. They are not unimagined that Mourinho will use a more balanced offensive and defensive balance because he looks down on his team. Tactics.

After all, Mourinho is a proud man, and may be despised of Wolfsburg-this kind of thinking is also hopeful. However, when Wolfsburg stood at Stamford Bridge and watched the opponent's formation, they clearly realized that they really wanted more.

Standing on the court, listening to the shouts of the surrounding fans, and looking at the opponent's lineup, Gao Shunyao could only sigh. After playing for so many forwards, sometimes he can guess the opponent's thoughts by looking at the opponent's formation. No matter how you look at it, in this game, Mourinho seems to be playing a defensive counterattack.

This is not to say how strong Chelsea’s lineup is — Chelsea’s defense looks good, but if you really study it carefully, you will find that they may not be as good as people have rated. Although this line of defense is very famous, there are still some problems when it comes to strength.

In Chelsea's defense, the goalkeeper uses Cech, which hasn't changed. And their four defenders are Azpilicueta, Terry, Gary Cahill and Ivanovic lined up. This defense line is not small if it is famous, but if you take a closer look at the play and strength, it will make people feel that there is a big problem.

First of all, their two full-backs are basically people with little offensive ability. In the tactics of Wolfsburg, Magath strongly emphasized that the two wings take turns to be different. Chelsea's two wings seem to be different. Can't get on either side.

Ivanovic is a central defender and plays on the wing. It is difficult for him to give play to the advantage of support. The player's cross is astonishingly bad. This is not news and is something that no one knows. Azpilicueta was once a right back. Mourinho was changed to a left-back. His defensive ability is considered to be excellent, but on the offensive end, he has not played much.

They are not any top guards, but the problem is. That's just a problem on the offensive side. On the defensive end, they did quite well. Azpilicueta and Ivan are on the same side, basically confirming Chelsea’s offense. It is impossible to expect support from the backcourt. In terms of staffing, they just made up their minds to let the wing defend. , Instead of taking the initiative.

And if it's just the sideways, it's not difficult to understand. Wolfsburg is good at playing on the wing, and Chelsea's arrangement is also understandable. but. Looking at the layout of Chelsea's mid lane, Gao Shunyao can also sigh secretly: Mourinho, the coach, can really pull off his face.

Like the side configuration, their mid-range players can also know at a glance that they are ready to play a defensive counterattack.

Looking at Chelsea's defense, their central figure is naturally Cahill. Gary Cahill is a very good player, but he is always one step away from the real star. This player is stable. He is conscientious and does not have any shortcomings on the court, which can be said to be his greatest strength, however. After all, this player is an England defender.

In Europe in recent years, English football has become worse and worse. As Gerrard, Lampard and other people age, there are fewer and fewer stars in England. The strength has also been questioned a lot. There is no doubt that English football is behind a lot, but this does not mean that the English defender is useless. There is a big difference between the style of playing and the European continent. They have better headers and focus in the game. These are their advantages, but they have a general sense of position, weak ability to hold the ball, and because of their tall stature, they have problems with turning speed. These are also Common problems of England defenders-as an England player, although Cahill is the best defender in England, he is still irreparable in these aspects. On the whole, he is qualified, but absolutely not. Strong.

If Wolfsburg is playing against an ordinary team in this game, then a player of his level is quite good. However, Chelsea is not an ordinary team. They are a top-notch team. Considering the reputation of Chelsea's former defender, Gary Cahill, a player, seems a bit unworthy.

His poor shots, poor replenishment, and very slow turning speed all determine that his range of motion is very small and he can only defend in the backcourt.

What's even more interesting is that in this game, Cahill's partner used Terry: If it was five years ago, no one in this world would dare to say that Terry was not a good defender. But with the passage of time, Terry now has long refused to accept the past. Since the beginning of last season, Terry has ceased to be the main force in Chelsea's iron fight. There was even a saying that he is about to leave Chelsea-even the best players can't stand the torture of time. Terry is already old. No one can deny this.

And to put such a veteran on the field, if it weren't for Chelsea's internal team struggle that Mourinho had no choice, then his idea was obvious.

Cahill didn't turn quickly, and his technique was not fine. These things were his inherent problems. If Mourinho is really ready to give his team some control or an offensive mind, he will naturally be accompanied by players like David Luiz in order to complement each other. However, in this crucial battle, Mourinho put him up, undoubtedly wanting him and Cahill, the two British defenders, to head the ball to gain sufficient air superiority for Chelsea.

In the face of Wolfsburg, Mourinho’s tactics are almost exclusively considering defense, and the defender’s skills are insufficient. This problem, Mourinho is afraid that he did not even think about making up for this problem-anyway, his team has never Don't rely on the central defender to get the ball forward.

Poor possession of the ball, then don't control the ball. Turn around slowly, then pull back the defense line-Gao Shunyao can think of how to make up for their problems, just thinking about it, Chelsea's tactical ideas are ready to emerge.

They just want to squat into the hole-even if it is at home, the team's strength is far better than the opponent, Mourinho has chosen to do so.

In fact, this decision can be understood very clearly by looking at the midfielder Mourinho arranged for this game: in front of a Chelsea defensive line, Mourinho arranged David Luiz and Matic Being a double defensive midfielder is also enough to show that he values ​​defense.

In this era, double midfielders are very popular in football, and many teams also like to use two midfielders in the game. However, this pair of Chelsea's midfielders is different from Wolfsburg or Bayern's midfielders. Others' double midfielders require both technical and defensive capabilities. Generally, one is responsible for sweeping and the other is responsible for controlling the rhythm. This is also the standard configuration. Chelsea’s two men are known for their large defensive area and strong confrontation ability. Matic’s job at Wolfsburg is to let go, while Louis is a guard. Their ability to organize offense and control rhythm are all just It can be said to be general, only. The ability to mop up is very good.

Arranging such two midfielders at once, Chelsea is by no means aimless. Obviously, Mourinho also knows that his backcourt players are slow, unable to withstand the impact, and need adequate protection. Two players with a good sweeping area are enough to make the backcourt squat more stable and more assured.

However, this protection seems to be too strong-looking at the frontcourt, Gao Shunyao also found that Mourinho was a little too careful. Not only did he arrange two defensive midfielders to grab the ball, he even used Hazard, Oscar and William on the front midfielder.

His idea is very straightforward: if the backcourt is determined to defend, then the frontcourt players are naturally mainly defensive counterattacks. In this game, Chelsea’s frontcourt, among the three front midfielders arranged, except for Hazard, the two players are fairly average offensive players, but both of them are very willing to invest their energy on the defensive end. . Putting the same on the court basically means that Chelsea's tactics are to grab the frontcourt to the backcourt and focus entirely on defense.

It's not easy for a giant team to play such a low posture against a team like Wolfsburg. Looking at the opponent's defense, Gao Shunyao has a headache, how can he play to score a goal.

In this game, it may be really difficult to score goals.

However, ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ although this kind of thought came into being, when he saw the opponent's offensive line, it would basically be wiped out.

Chelsea put a lot of troops into defense, which leaves them with almost no personnel on the offensive end that people can rely on. Except for Hazard on the left, their front striker can only use Huerle as the role-after all, in such an important game, Mourinho will not use Torres, he is not boring to the point. During the battle, challenge the **** mode.

As for Xuerle, Gao Shunyao is also very familiar with him. He knows very well that this player is not suitable for center forward, but he plays a better role as a shadow forward. Now catch the ducks on the shelves and let him play in that position. I'm afraid he will also play in a good state. In this way, all the pressure of Chelsea's goals will be Hazard's.

It may be difficult to attack by himself, but compared with Hazard, it is still much easier: after all, he can hardly get any help from the tactics, and in the tactics of Wolfsburg, Gao Shunyao can get a lot of support. The opponent's strength is indeed very strong, but Gao Shunyao has reason to believe that with the support of his teammates, he will play better than him.

If he scores a first goal in this game, he doesn't believe he will lose. (To be continued.)
