Seventh!

The more a coach who insists on his own style and perseveres, the more chance he has to become a top coach.

Coaches like Ferguson, Wenger, and Mourinho, their football philosophy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the former two rarely undergo drastic changes. They can be regarded as seekers or skywalkers in the coaching circle. With a firm belief, who dares to say that it is not this belief that contributed to their brilliance?

So is Mourinho.

Although his utilitarian philosophy dislikes some fans, it will not shake his will and determination.

Chelsea was clearly the platform for his greater ambitions, and his footballing philosophy was clearly elevated here.

Qin Xiong will definitely never forget the UEFA Champions League final half a year ago.

He remembered that Porto was still 442 in the hands of Mourinho. Although it was very utilitarian, the formation determined the area control ability. Even Deco participated in the defense, but after all, Porto's midfield defensive strength was one and a half defensive strength.

Now Chelsea is in the hands of Mourinho, withdrew a striker and changed to 433.

This liberated Lampard even more, allowing Lampard to focus more on offense, activating his offensive threat.

And because they focus on defense, in positional defense, Lampard still exists in the midfield defense. With Thiago and Makelele, Chelsea's midfield defense is at least two half of the defense.

One can imagine how much pressure Qin Xiong will face!

I have to say that Chelsea's 433 combined with defensive counterattack tactics is simply the nemesis of the traditional mainstream 442 play in the Premier League!

Because in the counterattack, their center attack will have one more person than the opponent!

England's 442 are two players in the middle of the midfield. When they are counterattacked, most of the time they will be destroyed by Chelsea's forward explosion. Coupled with the powerful winger's personal breakthrough ability, Chelsea can score points against the middle and lower teams. It's like picking something out of a bag.

It also made the Premier League critics express emotion: Chelsea played so hard that their opponents dare not attack!

Of course, there is a premise for this kind of not daring to attack, that is, Chelsea itself does not take the initiative to attack, they just wait for their opponents to make the first move.Backlash.

Fortunately, under Wenger's training, Arsenal has already played with double midfielders.This is exactly the same as the French team that started the renewal of European football midfield tactics in 98. It is not the first, but it is one of the leaders in the wave of the times.

The game was very depressing, and Chelsea's stability made Qin Xiong feel great pressure. He couldn't find a point to go forward. Even if his teammates came back to support him, it was still difficult to move forward.

Qin Xiong is not an irresponsible midfield commander.He can continue to make risky passes, but it will definitely have a high pass turnover rate, and mistakes will bring anxiety and confusion!

Chelsea also played steadily. Without a good chance to counterattack, they ended the attack hastily. There was no space for the winger to attack, so they directly went to Drogba with a high-altitude ball. If Drogba can play a fulcrum role, then maybe he can get a good attack .

But Arsenal's formation is not pressing up, and Drogba has a strong ability to fight.It is also impossible to play in the front and back of the Silva-Vieira-Toure-Campbell four-team.

The Arsenal players were the first to be unable to hold back in this oppressive atmosphere.

Ashley Cole!

He saw that Chelsea failed to play a threatening offense, and his own offense was obviously at a disadvantage in the frontcourt, playing less and more. When Qin Xiong did not show the ability to pass the ball through a scalpel.Naturally, he couldn't wait to kill along the sidewalk.

He has a proud heart, Arsenal unbeaten in 56 games.Why are you so afraid of Chelsea?

The opponent just makes more money than Arsenal. Of course, he does not deny that it is enviable to make more money, but on the court, why bother?

His rash approach almost caused a catastrophe!

When he ran forward, Qin Xiong passed the ball to him immediately. Ashley Cole tried to complete a two-for-one cooperation with Pires when he passed the midfield, but Pires failed to catch his Passing the ball, Ferreira, who was extremely decisive in grabbing the ball, succeeded in stealing the ball!

Ferreira did not hesitate to pass the ball straight in front of the wing.Behind Ashley Cole, where Duff looks at the football rolling behind him.His expression suddenly changed, his eyes were piercing!

Here comes Chelsea's chance!

He sprinted along the wing, dribbling the ball towards Arsenal's penalty area, cutting inside.

Campbell dare not move, he must pinch Drogba with Toure.

Lampard advances quickly, Qin Xiong pays attention to Lampard's running position while returning to defense, and he blocks from the outside to cut off the passing line between Duff and Lampard!

Vieira guaranteed to block Lampard's forward charge head-on.

Lauren earns inside to guard against Robben.

Although Chelsea's counterattack will not invest too much force, especially the two full-backs basically do not participate in assists. This is Mourinho's approach to ensure the stability of the defense.

But on the basis of enough attack space, even a small number of troops can still launch a dazzling counterattack storm!

The core element is fast!

Ashley Cole looked beyond his reach in the back chase. He watched the wide defensive gap left by him being used by Chelsea's wide counterattack, and his heart was about to jump out, especially from his perspective, Duff was flying like lightning The territory brought the football to the Arsenal penalty area and killed it indomitably, it was shocking!

An uproar!

Silva slid fiercely outside the penalty area to intercept Duff successfully!

Duff lost control of the football and fell to the ground. He didn't want to pass the ball, but Qin Xiong blocked the passing line between him and Lampard. Drogba was pinched by Campbell and Toure again. His feet There is no way to ensure that he can accurately send the football to the feet of Robben on the other side of the field, and in the end he can only go to the penalty area by himself. Silva just saw the timing and successfully intercepted it!

"The biggest advantage for Arsenal in this game is that Silva successfully recovered his competitive state through last weekend's league match and the 65-minute Champions League match in the middle of the week. Now he is completely different from him in the Liverpool game. Two people, look at this textbook slide interception, Arsenal's defense is also convincing!"

Campbell breathed a sigh of relief. If Drogba dribbles into the penalty area, he must give up Drogba to defend Duff. How will Drogba move at that time? Will Duff seize the fleeting opportunity to pass the ball? No one can guarantee the ball.

Ashley Cole returned to the back line with lingering fears, and he may then understand why Wenger emphasized defense in preparation for this game.

Qin Xiong kept reminiscing about Chelsea's threatening counterattack just now in his mind.

Arsenal counterattacked with 6 people defending Chelsea with 4 people!

If Ashley Cole is in the defensive position, then four defenders + double midfielders, plus himself is a 7-man defense.

Then the defense must be fine, as long as the opponent is not given an offensive space for track and field sprints, the defense will not cause too much trouble.

He looked back towards Chelsea's half-court and a thought came to his mind.

After defending Chelsea's frontcourt touchline, Qin Xiong's midfield organization style changed suddenly.

He began to look for the almost non-existent passing line and frequently passed the ball to his teammates.

Go forward!

It was the first time to find Ljungberg directly in the midfield. Although Ljungberg touched the ball first, Gallas' pressing made Ljungberg lose the ball immediately.

Chelsea did not instigate better counter-attacks because Arsenal's defense looked solid.

In the 31st minute of the game, Qin Xiong finally succeeded once after trying three times.

Pires suddenly cut horizontally to the front waistline, allowing Qin Xiong to complete a tacit pass and run cooperation with him, but was destroyed by Terry when Pires wanted to send Henry a deadly pass.

Mourinho on the sidelines looked calm. He saw Qin Xiong actively throwing the ball forward, but in fact the success rate was not high.

He said silently in his heart: He started to mess up!

With huge defensive pressure and eager to play his own role, Mourinho can imagine Qin Xiong's mental pressure and mentality changes.

He is not proud, he only regrets that he underestimated Qin Xiong in the Champions League final half a year ago.

But the same mistake, he will not make a second time!

When Qin Xiong dribbled the ball across the half in the 36th minute of the game and tried to send Henry a direct pass but was cut off by Makelele, Chelsea launched a wave of offensively sharp counterattacks.

Lampard's starting position was behind Qin Xiong. He responded to Makelele's pass in the frontcourt, and passed the ball to the wing to Robben without giving Vieira a chance to get close.

Although Qin Xiong is retreating, the target he is always looking at is Thiago or Makelele. Chelsea's style determines that it is impossible for both midfielders to rush forward and assist. He only needs to beware of one of them. , whoever moves, whoever crosses the halftime, with whom!

Robben tried to get past Lauren, but Lauren always aimed to tighten the inside line. In the end, Robben could only make a pass from the wing. Campbell cleared the ball and the football fell to Vieira's feet.

The long-legged Vieira is bold and bold. When Lampard countered on the spot, he flicked the ball sideways, dodged it and then sent a direct pass. The football quickly rolled to the midfield. Qin Xiong turned around and dribbled forward. , his speed suddenly increased!

Mourinho found that every time he watched Qin Xiong play on the spot, he would find new highlights from Qin Xiong.

But he obviously won't praise Qin Xiong at this time, because Qin Xiong is the opponent's player.

And he exaggeratedly yelled at the disciples in the front court to let them defend, especially Robben.

Mourinho's heart was shocked!

He guessed Qin Xiong's intention.

This young and precocious midfield commander has never panicked!

He wanted to fight Chelsea's counterattack! (to be continued~^~)
