What is a destructive midfielder?

Starting from the theory of consequences, we can know that Conte does not like players with low defensive hardness, even if his passing level is among the strongest in the world.

That's right.

It's Cesc Fabregas.

So far this season, the former assists king of the five major leagues has only had the opportunity to start 6 games, but he has delivered 7 key assists.

Still failed to completely impress the stubborn Conte.

Why?

Because he has to solve the biggest problem in the three-center-back system.

Many news media misunderstand that the combination of Kanter and Fabregas is equal to Pirlo and Gattuso. In fact, the difference between these two combinations is equivalent to that of a cat and a dog, completely different genera.

They are two concepts.

Chelsea bench.

Matic suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his calf.

When I turned around, I saw that it was Diego Costa who was plucking the hair from his feet.

Both men have quirks.

One doesn't like to shave his feet completely and hates having too smooth skin.

One likes to pluck the hair from his teammates' feet.

"Diego, do you know why the boss didn't let me start this time?"

"Because the whole world is studying how to break Chelsea's three-centre-back system, the core of Conte's change is not Cesc Fabregas, but Azpilicueta."

Matic couldn't help but give a thumbs up to his teammates.

Although Diego Costa is uneducated and has not studied for a few years, he always likes to exchange tactics with Simeone and Mourinho, and often stays on the phone to discuss them in the middle of the night.

"Arsenal's formation is 4-3-3!"

"Goalkeeper: Petr Cech."

"Defenders: Monreal, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Bellerin."

"Midfielder: Xhaka, Li Kang, Cazorla."

"Forwards: Sanchez, Giroud, Morata!"

"We can see Giroud and Kante walking together, like adults and children."

"Some news media gave Kante's height as 1.71 meters, and the official height given by the Football Association was 1.67 meters!"

Mertesacker and Terry are guessing.

The rest of the players took up their positions.

Li Kang tugged on his pants.

A mechanical, cold electronic synthesized sound sounded quietly.

【Ding! Mission trigger: Blue Bridge’s wet dream. 】

[Mission Introduction: What you are facing is not Hiddink who rests on his laurels, but Conte, the trend-setter who leads the tactical revolution. 】

[The tactical concepts of all famous coaches are constantly being optimized. Abandon the three-front concept of the Mourinho Blue Army. You may even have to abandon the research on Kong’s three-center-back system during this period before you can find a way out. Good luck! 】

[Task reward: Chelsea Legend·Platinum Treasure Chest. 】

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The game officially begins.

Chelsea possession.

Batshuayi kicked the ball back to Cesc Fabregas.

After several passes in the backcourt, he came to the feet of Courtois.

Just when people thought Chelsea was going to take their time to organize the attack.

Marcos and Moses suddenly advanced at high speed.

Snapped!

The moment Courtois takes a big kick.

Azpilicueta and Kante also sprinted frantically along the middle from the backcourt.

"Chelsea has a lot of ways to play the ball in their own attacking phases this season."

"Is this still the blue bus?"

"Crazy rotating movements are the foundation of beautiful football!"

"Asbiligueta went too deep and didn't look like a centre-back, crazy."

"Pay attention to a small detail. The positions of the two wing-backs Moses and Marcos are not parallel. One is further forward and the other further back. This is an asymmetrical offense engraved in Chelsea's bones!"

The 40-meter area in Arsenal's half.

Batshuayi stopped the Blues goalkeeper's long pass with his back.

Although there are five passing points in the frontcourt.

But the movement of Li Kang and Xhaka strangled the forward passing line.

There was a snap.

The little black forward with dreadlocks pushed the ball back.

A short figure appeared.

Kanter.

His progress is rapid, and his stopping movements are far more calm than during the European Cup.

"Different coaches can train different players."

"Kante under Ranieri is the leading tackler in Europe."

"Kante under Conte is the most perfect offensive two-point protection."

"Hazard retreated to prepare to receive the ball, and Moses continued to advance to the winger position. Can Arsenal's defensive players maintain a unified thinking?"

Leicester City's Kante: Because he was afraid of pain, he added all his attribute points to defense and steals.

Chelsea's Kante: If you can only defend and steal, you will be eliminated by the times.

His passing skills have been developed by Conte.

Push hard with your right foot.

The football skittered across the turf.

Instead of passing it to Hazard, who was retreating to receive the ball, it was passed to Marcos on the right!

at the same time.

Central defender Azpilicueta has already rushed to the attacking midfielder position in the formation.

What he was best at in Mu's second period was the full-back position.

Conte transformed him into a central defender, strictly speaking, a wing central defender.

When Li Kang returned to defense, he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to direct Bellerin to block.

But Marcos suddenly dribbled the ball diagonally into the middle.

This is still Conte's usual system of wide attack dominated by wing backs.

William, who was at the forefront of the right wing, rushed to the side in the opposite direction.

"The offense is so layered."

"Is this still the same Chelsea team that likes to split the defense with three axes?"

From God's perspective.

The red line that spread wildly seemed to be tightened at this moment.

Li Kang turned back and rushed towards Azpilicueta.

Marcos, who was about to pass the ball straight, suddenly passed the ball to William who ran out of the gap.

Unlike in the past.

It was not the two wingbacks who completed the fatal cross.

But William!

The afro shook with the shaking of the body.

The Samba winger easily passed Bellerin and dribbled the ball to the right side of the penalty area!

Cross!

It was an inverted triangle!

The end point could not be the silly Batshuayi, nor Azpilicueta who was closely guarded by Li Kang.

But Fabregas!

"Moses and Hazard helped their teammates attract the defense on the left!"

"Top of the penalty area!"

"Fabregas!"

On the sidelines.

Wenger was stunned.

People only remember the assist efficiency of Chelsea's No. 4, but forget the terrifying finishing ability of Arsenal's No. 4 in the past.

Bould glanced at him instinctively.

It's not you who trained him that year.

On the other side.

Conte is ready to roar!

All the audience held their breath.

Mertesacker and Koscielny wanted to block the opponent's long shot.

It was too late.

Fabregas's leg swing was very small.

Bang!

The football made an arc in the air.

It went straight into the dead corner!

"The ball is in!"

"Cech is too late"

"Ouch!"

Bang!

The football hit the intersection of the post and the crossbar and bounced out of the bottom line!

Conte pounded the ground angrily.

Fabregas did not make an overly regretful expression, but raised his hand to apologize to his teammates.

"What a pity."

"It was just a little short."

"It was still too much to chase the angle of the ball."

"No matter how I thought about it, I never thought that Fabregas would be the final goal."

"Old fans should not forget that when Fabregas was 19 years old, he wore the No. 4 jersey of Arsenal and shot from 35 meters away to overturn AC Milan!"

"Conte's pre-match preparations were sufficient."

"The dense attack points were arranged on the basis of the three-center-back system."

"Even Azpilicueta, a center-back, became a center forward."
