Chapter 231 The paranoia of the coaches

When the score of 2-0 appeared, many Arsenal fans had already begun to despair - in the knockout round of the Champions League, they were beaten 2-0 at their home court, which basically meant that they had already won the next round of the Champions League.

Say goodbye to the game. Yes, there are all kinds of comebacks in football matches, but if you play like this at your own home court, what kind of comeback do you expect?

On the court, Yaya Toure did not celebrate excessively. He just high-fived his teammates and then picked up the football from the goal. When he walked past his brother, he even responded with a somewhat apologetic greeting.

Smile, but this apology is just what he thinks. In Toure's view, this smile is somewhat mocking - Kolo Toure does not think that Yaya will have a good impression of Arsenal.

Li Bin, who was standing on the sidelines, saw the goal, but he just lightly clapped his hands twice to indicate to the players that they played well and said nothing more.

Arsenal has more than one weakness. After taking advantage of the first one, they will defend it. Then, use the second weakness to deal with them. If they change again, then find the third one... Wenger

Although he has all kinds of problems, he is still a world-class coach. If nothing else, Arsenal claims to be second in the world in terms of smooth counterattack. No one dares to say that it is first in the world. When facing him, Li Bin

But he didn't dare to be careless. He also prepared a variety of methods to deal with Arsenal's defense in various ways.

Arsenal's first problem is air defense, and the second problem is their midfield. With Gilberto, Arsenal is not too weak in the midfielder position, but sometimes, the midfielder

In terms of position, one midfielder is not enough. Especially when the opponent is pressing hard like this, according to the normal defensive strategy, the midfielder will naturally stand in front of the penalty area.

The waist prevents the opponent's long shots, and the players in the penalty area defend the opponent's striker. In modern football, because midfielders make so many deep cuts, and wide players also cut in a lot, therefore, a

It is difficult for the defensive midfielder to guarantee the defense at the front of the penalty area. Double defensive midfielders have also become a trend in tactical development. If Arsenal have to go against the trend, they will naturally be unlucky.

A single defensive midfielder is not suitable for football in this era. Unless you have a technical advantage that is one level or more ahead of your opponent, you should not consider using a single defensive midfielder in modern football. Arsenal's single defensive midfielder tactics are not as good as those in the Premier League and Premier League.

It's okay for my team to have fun, but if you get

It won't work in the Champions League. Parma is an Italian team, and the technical ability of the Serie A team is no worse than Arsenal. If they try to use a single defensive midfielder against Parma, they will have to suffer. Arsenal has been in the Champions League over the years.

I haven't been performing very well, and it's not just bad luck.

When playing against Milan, not one of Parma's three goals was scored from the center, because of the three defensive midfielders of Gattuso, Ambrosini and Pirlo. Gattuso's function is

Strangulation, Ambrosini on the sweep, Pirlo

In the organization, but when the opponent presses, the three people spread out at the front of the penalty area, which can reduce Parma's long-range shot opportunities to the minimum. No matter how strong Arshavin and the others are, the impact can only be from the side. This is the tactic.

The role of arrangement.

However, when facing Arsenal, as long as Gilberto is mobilized, no one in the opponent's defense can play a role. Although Fabregas can also play some role as a defensive midfielder,

His body is too weak. Secondly, when the battle situation is unfavorable, he always thinks about attacking and has to relax a little bit about defense.

The most rare thing about players is not only their ability, but also their mentality. It is not difficult to have good skills, but it is difficult to have good skills and a good mentality at the same time.

Precisely because they did not have a good enough mentality, Arsenal's vacuum in the midfielder position allowed Parma to successfully score a goal. After half-time, they were already leading their opponents 2-0.

After entering the locker room, Yaya Toure still had a smile on his face, and when he walked into the locker room, he laughed directly, "It's really strange, we actually defeated Arsenal like this."

, I used to always think about going to Arsenal after playing football, but now it seems that I feel really stupid. Why should I go to Arsenal? They don’t play much better than us.

Well!"

"That's right. Arsenal is very famous. How come they are so vulnerable in a fight?"

Li Bin heard it and knew the answer to this question, but he didn't speak.

Arsenal's football has always been a technical football. In the Premier League, their technology is naturally considered to be first-class. With first-class technology, they will naturally take advantage of playing with others, and some problems will not arise.

will be highlighted, and weak teams cannot counterattack them too much. However, when it comes to the Champions League, facing

When playing against a strong team, if the technology is not enough to control the whole field, problems will arise. This kind of problem, let alone Arsenal, is the same for Barcelona, ​​​​who will be number one in the world in the future. When encountering a particularly strong team, their

The performance can hardly be said to be overwhelming - the single-midfielder style of play is indeed not suitable for modern football.

It's just that there is no need to say these words. It is not a good thing to speak ill of other coaches in front of the players. Moreover, deep down, he also understands what Wenger means by doing this: as a player who has an extreme affinity for offensive football.

Wenger naturally wants to build a team according to his own ideas. What he wants is offensive football with a single midfielder. He may not be aware of the problems, but he is still willing to believe in the strength of his team.

A technical advantage that is enough to suppress the opponent - this is the paranoia of the coach.

Doesn't Li Bin himself have this paranoia? Otherwise, why would he stick to pressing football instead of playing controlling football early? Isn't it because deep down in his heart, he still believes that pressing football is stronger?

In terms of playing style, are you unwilling to compromise with another tactic that has achieved excellent results in your memory?

"In the second half of the game, be more serious. Believe me, guys, just follow what I said, and we will win this game."

Li Bin was sure of victory, but in the second half of the game, he was still surprised.

Arsenal replaced Hleb and replaced Robin van Persie, who was suspected of being seriously injured, and actually played a three-forward game.

Such a change of formation... This also surprised Li Bin. He thought that after Arsenal fell behind, they would have to do something to the defense, but he did not expect that Arsenal's choice was to fight against him.

.

This is your home court. Even if you win the match and score more goals, if you lose the number of goals scored at home, you are bound to lose.

But soon, Li Bin understood what they were thinking.

Maybe they want more than just an attack.

They replaced three forwards, and they obviously wanted to play from behind. This also posed a problem for Li Bin. If he wanted to defend the current situation, he had to withdraw the back line, and the back line retreated.

The midfielder will also have to withdraw, so that the pressure on the opponent's midfielder cannot be maintained, and Parma's offensive and defensive tactics will completely collapse. Then, 2-0 will be

This is the best situation for Parma. It is even possible that due to bad luck, another goal is scored in the second half, which means that the 2-0 situation will no longer be possible. And if we continue to fight against the midfielders like this, it will be very difficult.

You may have been counterattacked, and the 2-0 situation is already very good. If you are really unlucky, you may lose a good game, and then the gain will not be worth the loss.

Li Bin suddenly discovered that Wenger was indeed a top coach. Such a simple change of tactics made Li Bin timid and didn't know what to do.

While he was still hesitating, an Arsenal attack also started. Fabregas took the ball again. He did not move forward, but ran a few steps across the backcourt. Gilberto came over and met him.

Fabregas gave him the ball with one kick, and the two ran almost close to each other. Gilberto received the ball, took a step forward, let go of Yaya Toure's pressing, and then returned the ball with one kick.

Gave it to Cesc Fabregas.

The cooperation between the two is quite beautiful. Obviously, Wenger must have made adjustments to their midfield cooperation. Just now, Fabregas was almost stared at, but now, the small cooperation with his teammates makes it possible.

He has gained space very well. Yaya Toure's oppression is no longer effective. Fabregas has gained space. He has been liberated and can organize.

With Gilberto's help, Fabregas finally found a suitable attacking opportunity for himself. This time, he had room to play, and he was naturally able to pass the ball satisfactorily.

He kicked the ball forward, across the entire half, towards Parma's defense. His pass was indeed extremely clever. The ball landed almost one meter behind Agger, and

Henry also ran over at the same time. At this time, the competition between the two was quite fierce.

Henry still got the football first. He received the ball sideways, and Agger immediately tackled it. However, Henry picked the ball up with his left foot, then jumped, caught the ball with his right foot, and adjusted

After taking one step, he had already dodged his grab for the ball.

Then, Henry aimed at the goal and sent a shot directly into the far corner. This time, he did not make any more mistakes.

"Arsenal finally counterattacked and scored a goal. They are now launching a counterattack, which makes this game start to move in a more interesting direction."

2-1, Parma still leads, but Arsenal has regained some advantages. Their midfielder has reorganized, and with the help of Gilberto, Fabregas' offensive power has also been released.

The tension between the three forwards in the frontcourt put a lot of pressure on Parma's defense, making it difficult for Parma's attack to launch smoothly.

But what really puts Li Bin under the greatest pressure is that the opponent did not take a defensive position in such a game, but took an offensive position. What to do after falling behind 0-2? This is a major problem facing Arsenal, but Wenger passed

His command successfully threw the problem back to Li Bin, which instead became Li Bin's problem.

However, seeing the opponent's attack work so quickly made Li Bin admire him from the bottom of his heart: Wenger is good at attacking, but he is unparalleled in this aspect.

However, how can I be afraid of you when we compete against each other? Even if we compete against each other, let's see, we are better!
