winning hand

After the two teams met, both sides immediately understood the question of what level of team Manchester City is.

Less than twenty minutes into the game, Mancini discovered that Manchester City had no chance of winning.

Because Zabaleta was injured in Manchester City's previous game against Arsenal, he got a rest this time. Manchester City's lineup has Hart as goalkeeper in the backcourt, Richards, Dunn, Kompany and

Garrido is the starter, while the midfielder is Ireland, Wright Phillips, Motta and Flamini. On the forward line, it is Berbatov and Robbie.

Neo - Although it is a 442, this formation is also more inclined to 4231. Robinho can be pulled to the left at any time, while Ireland moves more towards the center. Generally speaking, their tactics are not too

The big flaw is that if faced with other Premier League teams, such a lineup can achieve very good results.

But their opponent is Tottenham - if there is anyone in the Premier League who knows Berbatov very well, it is Tottenham. Berbatov was a member of this team before, which also makes Tottenham

The players are very clear about his playing characteristics. From the beginning of the game, Tottenham asked Thiago Silva to closely monitor him, constantly pestering him with small moves, and practicing against him.

Stick defense.

Berbatov has many problems in playing football. The biggest one is that he always avoids confrontation. When being stared at, especially when facing tight defense, he always subconsciously retreats to the shadow forward position, and even

Playing in the midfield. Although his body seems to be perfectly able to stand in the frontcourt, he doesn't like trying to stand in the frontcourt.

Under the entanglement of Thiago Silva, he quickly retreated and was no longer close to the penalty area.

And his retreat caused Thiago Silva to immediately choose to press forward. His defensive area expanded to the thirty meters in front of the penalty area, forcefully forcing Berbatov into the midfield.

, can no longer approach the restricted area.

In the penalty area on the other side, Cavani and Suarez were running back and forth, which made Kompany a little exhausted from running back and forth.

As two defenders who have just arrived in the Premier League this season, Kompany and Thiago Silva have both shown extremely terrifying defensive standards. Moreover, because Kompany is slightly taller, he has a better ability to defend headers.

He has always been considered to be of a higher level than Thiago Silva. However, now

, the difference between the two people is reflected: for the forward who basically moves outside the penalty area, Thiago Silva can also effectively control Berbatov, but on the other side, it is difficult for Kompany to control

There are two people living outside the restricted area - the range of control is the biggest difference between the two people.

On the one hand, Tottenham's forward line was harassing Manchester City's defense, and on the other hand, Manchester City's forward line was forced back to the midfield by Tottenham. Minutes after the start of the game, Tottenham's advantage was already huge.

"Mancini said before the game that Manchester City is better than Tottenham when facing strong opponents. Indeed, this season they drew with Chelsea, lost 0-1 to Manchester United, and defeated Arsenal 3-0.

It seems that Tottenham's strength against strong teams is more impressive, but until now, they really can't see any advantage against Tottenham. On the defensive line, Tottenham's defense is probably in front of the goal.

meters, Manchester City is around 15 meters, Manchester City was suppressed too hard..."

Manchester City played well on the sidelines this season. In many cases, it was no worse than Tottenham. Mancini said that he had good players and could compete with Tottenham. Although most of the media had a disbelieving attitude, no one expected this.

As soon as the guy came up, he was still suppressed so hard.

The only person who doesn't find this situation strange is Li Bin.

He is very familiar with Mancini and Manchester City, so he does not look down upon Manchester City very much: this kind of contempt does not mean that he looks down on Manchester City as an upstart and has no background, but that he is familiar with Mancini's thoughts.

But that's it.

Fundamentally speaking, the current Manchester City is still only suitable for playing defensive football. Their defenders have a limited area of ​​activity and cannot defend, and they do not have a large enough range of activities. This is the biggest problem that destined their positional warfare to be their weakness.

.Once they play positional warfare, their problems are exposed. This is their biggest shortcoming. Mancini actually knows this. Arranging a player in the midfield who can pass the ball to counterattack is their only organizational strategy.

, this also determines that they are a counterattack team.

There is nothing shameful about playing counterattack football, but it is a strategy of counterattack football. Mancini always hopes to package his team with the beauty of offensive football. As an upstart, the biggest difference between Manchester City and Chelsea is

The reason is that Chelsea was very pragmatic at the beginning of the game. If they counterattacked, they would counterattack.

What beautiful football, but on the one hand, Manchester City needs counterattack football to support the scene, on the other hand, it also wants to play beautiful football. These contradictions caused Mancini to have a problem: It is obviously a backcourt configuration to play counterattack football, but it must be played.

In offensive football, the players cannot defend and cannot withstand the front. It would be strange if there are no problems.

Li Bin did not seize the opportunity to play behind him, but used strong pressure, which deformed his pseudo-offensive football. Mancini's problem was also exposed here: it is not that he is incapable of directing the game, but

He always wants to please his boss, which makes him play nondescript football.

Li Bin's Tottenham may not necessarily be a strong team, but Li Bin at least learned one thing in Italy - never make any oversights in defense. What he paid attention to from the beginning to the end was to double the defensive midfielder plus

The back line defends the center with all its strength and leaves the organization to the wide midfielders and forwards - before the organizational skills are developed, they will rely on speed to counterattack, but in the future they will still have to play pressure.

Both teams want to stay on the defensive and switch to attack. However, their biggest difference lies in two points. One is in character. Li Bin chooses offensive football and defensive football in order to play better football.

Mancini, on the other hand, wants to play football that satisfies the boss. Compared with Li Bin, his choice is too hasty, and the only way to achieve it is to rely on the skills of big players. Furthermore, his choice is to let the midfielder play

Putting an organizer in this way of playing is no longer useful.

Li Bin used to use a playmaker midfielder when he was in Serie A, but after arriving at Tottenham, he canceled this idea. The Premier League's counterattacks and steals are too fierce, and the playmaker midfielder can only be used as a midfielder in the middle.

Counterattack weapon, real organization

Talent is difficult to display. The top four in the Premier League want to use pure midfield playmakers, but the results are actually not very good. That is to say, Alonso fits the style of the Premier League and plays at a good level. Other Premier League playmakers cannot

Delic's data in recent years is not as good as Ashley Young and Bala

It's hard to say that Ke's playing at Chelsea is the core effect. Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas is playing well, but the way he plays for several months a year makes people have no intention of imitating it. The Premier League is different from Serie A. Serie A has a slow pace and heavy emphasis.

In the middle, put a tissue midfielder, you can have two

Personal protection, naturally he plays well. However, the Premier League attaches great importance to the wing. There are no two people around the defensive midfielder, only one person. He does not have the hardness of Alonso, and there is no world number one Mascherano beside him. Put him in the midfielder

It is always difficult for organizations to achieve overwhelming results.

In Li Bin's memory, Premier League organizers gradually developed from backcourt to winger. One of the biggest reasons for this is that players are better able to run. After the popularization of counterattacks in the frontcourt, the advantage of the midfielder in organizing has declined.

, even Pirlo was helpless when surrounded by others. In his later years, he could only play Serie A with Juventus, not the European war. Secondly, this is determined by the nature of the Premier League.

, the Premier League is a place where the fighting is too fierce and there are too many fouls. The threats faced on the wing can be reduced by half. Therefore, attaching importance to the wing is the tradition of the Premier League, which is also the fundamental reason for the development of wing organizations. Li Bin is familiar with this,

His original intention was to take the first step and develop the playing style of wing organization - one step ahead of others in tactical concepts is the most important advantage.

If there is any difference between Li Bin and Mancini, this is the biggest difference between the two: both are coaches from Italian football, but Li Bin learned the spirit of Italian football and used the magic of Serie A.

Integrate into the Premier League. He will transform the team, but his

The transformation has a clear idea, combining the essence of Italian football defense with the reality of Premier League football, and setting up tactics by himself. What Mancini learned is a layer of Italian football: he learned how to

Arrange the defense line, how to set up tactics, it can be set up very well

However, he did not learn the most important part of the tactical system, which is to implement a certain purpose of the coach. His essential thought is to please the boss. He did not understand that the reason why Italian football has shrunk is that

Because of the lack of excellent midfielders in the frontcourt, and also because

In order to improve efficiency, not all turtles are Italian, either long passes or lobs are English football. Every kind of football has internal connotations and external performances. Mancini pays attention to these performances, but ignores them.

With these connotations, his team is always skinless and difficult to take shape.

The problem with these ideas is that Mancini's team is still a weak team. They can play against weak teams, but they still have no chance against strong teams - of course, Arsenal is excluded from the strong teams. Li Bin also watched it.

In the last game, Arsenal had no one to play as a defender due to injuries. Even in the game

They have already fielded Djurou in the game. If they fielded an iron guard like Djurou and were defeated 3-0, what's so surprising? After beating a half-disabled Arsenal, they thought they were fighting a tough battle.

Even if you are good at it, this won’t work. Whether it’s Manchester City or Inter Milan, when has it ever been possible for Mancini’s team to fight a tough battle?

Manchester City's offense became increasingly unsustainable. Soon, Tottenham's counterattack almost broke through Manchester City's defense. Di Maria cut inside after dribbling the ball, but was fouled by Flamini in time.

After blocking it, he received a yellow card himself, but Tottenham's attack was also interrupted.

This also made Mancini start to restrain himself.

"Manchester City's lineup has begun to shrink, and they seem to have realized that if they insist on offensive tactics against Tottenham, they may not get any good results. I just don't know what Tottenham will choose. They have been

They all retreated very resolutely, I don’t know if there will be a rebound now.”

It seems that Mancini also understood that his team could not fight hard and had to command the team to retreat. However, they retreated, but Tottenham did not press immediately. They were still

Wait for the opportunity instead of attacking Manchester City right away.

Manchester City is not strong, but Tottenham are not strong enough to be at the level of the Cosmos and can overpower Manchester City. Now, they have to do it bit by bit.

When facing a counterattack player like Manchester City, Li Bin does not dare to let his team attack hard, and tries every opportunity. If his opponent seizes the opportunity to counterattack, Li Bin will cry. To deal with such a team, you have to

Only by simmering over low heat can the opponent be completely eaten.

It's like a normal game for both sides to fight back. Li Bin looked at the situation on the court and regretted that he couldn't seize the opportunity to score. However, he was still confident: even if you remove those fancy thoughts of yours,

You just want to fight back with me. Do you think you can beat me?
