From the first minute of the game, Boas frowned on the sidelines.

He said at the pre-match press conference that Mikel and Ramirez could contain Qin Xiong.

Because he also knows that Liverpool lacks Alonso and Cabaye, there is no fraud in this!

The news of the injuries of Alonso and Cabaye came from the national team.

The club may still release smoke bombs, but the national team does not need to cooperate with the club to play these intrigues.

As for Liverpool, which lacks midfield creativity, Boas predicted that Qin Xiong would retreat to the midfielder position, and now it seems that there is no big problem.

However, Liverpool did not strengthen the offensive personnel on the front line, nor arranged offensive players on the side. Instead, they sent three defensive midfielders, which made Boas unable to understand!

The three players like Mascherano, Lucas and Tiot are not like Vieira of Arsenal and Essien of Chelsea in the past, they can frequently kill the frontcourt in the midfielder position. Most of the time, these players perform their defensive duties conscientiously in the midfield.

Moreover, there is no extraordinary strength in offensive organization. Liverpool's weakening offensive situation is really puzzling.

After the start of the game, Liverpool's posture was also very humble, and the team's formation shrank to the midfield, which was slightly conservative.

The offense isn't fast either.

In the 3rd minute of the game, Chelsea's offense got bogged down on the left side of the frontcourt.

Mata is the role that Boas placed high hopes on. Boas used him as a front midfielder, but today he encountered Liverpool with three defensive midfielders, which means that Liverpool is on the side of the midfielder. Assisted defense is fast and timely.

In addition to crossing, it will be difficult for Mata to seek cooperation with Lampard in the middle. Sometimes because the opponent's pressing and defense are formed too fast, crossing becomes very difficult.

Chelsea's flanks must come up.

After Mata conceded the ball, Liverpool's forward attack did not succeed.

Mascherano cut off Mata and passed the ball to Gerrard.

Gerrard pushed forward in the midfield. He and Qin Xiong hit the wall in a row and failed the second time. Terry stepped forward and stabbed the ball away.

Chelsea gradually accelerated the pace of the game.

In the 8th minute of the game, Ashley Cole pressed on the side and finally played a decent offensive after supporting Mata on the left.

However, the bottom pass after bypassing Johnson was not ideal.

Once Chelsea's offensive hits the danger zone of Liverpool's defense, Tiot will interfere with Drogba in the income box, and then under the defense of Skrtel and Thiago Silva, it is difficult for Drogba to grab The football falls, unless his teammates pass very accurately, allowing him to take the lead in seizing a favorable position, and if he needs to move, the two central defenders of Liverpool will physically interfere with him, preventing him from succeeding.

Just after the football was cleared by Skrtel's header, Gerrard made a successful response from the outside.

After Gerrard turned around, he began to instigate a fast break.

Liverpool's offensive finally showed its threat at this moment.

Gerrard's one-footed diagonal pass made people's eyes shine.

In fact, Koeman used Gerrard in the midfield to organize the offense today!

Baines quickly puts on from the left!

Liverpool didn't play wide offensive players, and Qin Xiong didn't play wide offensive players. There was only one reason, to step back as a full-back!

Due to the existence of three defensive midfielders, Liverpool almost gave up the defense on the side. Once Chelsea penetrates the side, the midfielder will directly return to the key position of the penalty area to prevent the opponent from cutting inside. As for the pass, No matter how the opponent plays, because a dense defense has been formed in the penalty area, Drogba overwhelms everyone and can score the goal with a header, otherwise he has almost no other way to score the goal. The central defender blocks the front point to grab the point. If the ball cannot pass, stop the ball ?Before the football hits the ground, the defenders around it will destroy it.

Besides, Thiago Silva will not be at a disadvantage in defending Drogba one-on-one.

Because of this, Koeman hid Liverpool's real wing attack on the full-back.

Baynes dribbles the ball and rushes forward!

At this moment, Ivanovic and Mikel came to the wing to take the initiative to press Baynes.

Unsurprisingly, Baines passed the ball to Qin Xiong in the middle.

Ivanovic and Mikel immediately went back to the center to participate in the defense.

At this time, the audience can see the premise of Chelsea's back line position, and there is a wide space between the back line and the goalkeeper.

Ramirez ran to force Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong took the ball to the right and shook Ramirez away. After Ramirez made a sudden stop and turned around, Qin Xiong immediately passed the ball to the front of the back line At the foot of Suarez.

After passing the ball, Qin Xiong immediately ran forward. With the starting speed and acceleration explosion, Qin Xiong came directly to Chelsea's back line.

At this time, Chelsea's back line was already a little bit tingling.

When the Liverpool coaching staff studied Chelsea's defensive characteristics, there is one thing that needs to be used in a targeted manner today, and that is the high-position defensive strategy!

To put it bluntly, high-position pressing is the premise of the team's entire defense line. It is a football strategy that organizes the siege in the midfield, forces the opponent to rush the ball, and destroys the opponent's attack from the backcourt.

This strategy is very effective against a team that is not strong in team possession. It will cause the opponent's passing efficiency to plummet, making it impossible to organize an effective attack. Fast break catches the opponent by surprise.

This set will also be used by Liverpool, otherwise why does Koeman need so many defensive midfielders!

If Liverpool want to break through the opponent's high press, they must first hide the offensive advancement point.

Let Chelsea's prediction fail.

This is one of the main functions of the full-back to push the offensive in this game.

At the same time, it is also an important reason for Gerrard to drop back and hit the midfielder as a midfielder.

After the absence of Alonso and Cabaye, Villas-Boas still insisted on using such a defensive strategy in this game. In addition to being unwilling to overthrow the tactical concept he has been working hard to realize since the beginning of the season, he also thought he could hold Liverpool. Seven inches of the team: the comprehensive ball control strength has declined!

But he was wrong!

Including Koeman's faltering at the pre-match press conference that he didn't know how to deal with today's game, the starting lineup put on three defensive midfielders, and Liverpool's weak and conservative posture after the opening, all of this, It's all just confusing Chelsea!

Qin Xiong doesn't need to organize an offensive, he just needs to connect!

Liverpool don't need to pile up too many forwards on the front line, because they have enough space to attack!

When the opportunity arises, only two points can kill Chelsea!

Easy fit and speed! (to be continued~^~)
