Chapter 19 Surprise
In addition, the chain defense is extremely demanding on the defender's ability. The reason why the Italians' chain defense can be successful is that they have such master-level lagging central defenders as Baresi, Nesta, and Gianletti.They will play the role of free man behind the two central defenders, protecting the last line of defense.Another major difficulty in chain defense is the defender's physical fitness, because this kind of defense is based on the defender's movement and running to maintain a tight formation, so the players must have a high physical reserve.Moreover, most of the players are involved in the defense, so the offense of this tactic is pale and weak, and they can only rely on the counterattack of the frontcourt players to find opportunities to score.

Chen Zhun thought over all these considerations.The ability of defenders, Chen Zhun thinks that the strength of these central defenders in his team is not bad, and they can barely meet the tactical needs.Physical reserve, Chen Zhun learned that before he crossed, the Southampton team had been carrying out physical reserve, and Chen Zhun observed the physical condition of the players after the recent double match, and everything was good.The speed of the counterattack was the part that Chen Zhun felt most at ease about.In daily training, Chen Zhun has been training the counterattack tactics after one kick, which is fast, accurate and fatal.

Everything is ready, just waiting to test the effect on the field.Chen Zhun looked at the unreliable defense line on the list, and Chen Zhun was still very uneasy.Now he is just imitating the gourd, according to what he knows in memory and watching the Italian team's game.Italy's defense line has experienced the immersion and polishing of time before it can fully display the chain defense of the 352 formation.And he only trained for two weeks with this lineup, and Chen Zhun didn't know how it was going to be.After all, chain defense is a tactical system that requires a high degree of fit. If the positioning is messed up, then chain defense will no longer exist.

When Jose Mourinho got the roster and looked at Southampton's starting lineup, he said to himself: "This game is a bit interesting. But I am still the strongest."

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the players have finished warming up from the field one after another, and returned to the locker room to listen to the final deployment of the head coach.

Chen Zhun saw that the players had returned to the locker room, cleared his throat and said: "Today's battle is extremely difficult, we must put in [-]% of our efforts to win the opponent. Also, just like I did before As I have been emphasizing, the opponent's midfield is very strong, defensive and offensive. Chelsea's source of everything is here. Chris, you should pay more attention to the exchange of Joe Cole and Lampard on the right. Don't follow him when Ernei cuts to the center and attracts you to defend in the center. If you go to the center to defend, David in front of you should make up for Chris in time to prevent the opponent from crossing. And Chelsea The two forwards are used to retreating to get the ball on the two sides, and then create opportunities for the center or for the players on the side. At this time, we must achieve the tightness and connection of the formation, as long as the opponent cannot attack us They don’t have any chance. Come on, guys!!” The Southampton players nodded one after another. They had prepared for this game for a long time, and everyone held back their energy to prove themselves in front of the strong team.

After Chen Zhun finished speaking, he left the locker room. Reed came over and asked, "David, how sure are you of this tactic?"

Chen Zhun could only smile wryly: "Les, to be honest, I'm not sure at all, but I can only fight. I want to win!"

Reed also smiled. He saw victory in Chen Zhun's eyes, just like he used to look at the eyes of those famous coaches.

August 8, at three o'clock in the afternoon.The fans in Stanford Stadium have been waiting for a long time. They are all waiting for their home team to win four consecutive victories and continue to occupy the top of the Premier League standings with the best start record in team history.This game also attracted the key broadcast of Sky Sports, and Martin Taylor, the top commentator of Sky Sports, was responsible for explaining the game.This year's Chelsea team bought many well-known superstars under the banknotes of the big Russian boss Abramovich. They bought Czech goalkeeper Petr Cech from Rennes, France for 28 million pounds, and bought Czech goalkeeper Petr Cech from Eindhoven. Alger Robben and Mattea Kezman were packaged for £900 million. Of course, the heaviest transfer was undoubtedly the most expensive Ivorian player in Chelsea's history at the time, Didier Drogba.Chen Zhun still remembers the scene of Drogba headed the savior in Chelsea's Champions League final against Bayern Munich.

"Hi everyone, this is Sky Sports, and I'm Martin Taylor. Today's game is the third round of the Premier League match between Chelsea and Southampton. Players from both sides walked into the field under the leadership of the referee Bennett. We Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. Chelsea's starting lineup is like this, the goalkeeper is Petr Cech, the back line is Bridge from left to right, Ricardo Carvalho, John Terry and Paul- Ferreira. The four players in the midfield are Joe Cole, Frank Lampard, Claude Makelele, Thiago Cardoso. The forwards are still Didier Drogba and Edu Earl Gudjohnsen. Southampton's starting lineup today is unexpected. They have a three-back lineup. The goalkeeper is Niemi and the three central defenders are Danny Higginbotham. , Klaus Lundekwan. Michael Svensson. The five-man midfield is Le Saux, John Delap, Anders Svensson, David Prutton, Chris Baird The forward line is James Beatty and Marian Pajas. Today's theme is also facing the former owner. Chelsea's left-back Bridge is from the Southampton youth training camp, while Le Saux on the opposite side is exactly In order to get bridge Chelsea added players. Okay, the referee blows his whistle and the game officially begins."

The game started, and Southampton's 352 formation officially began to accept the test of the game.Chen Zhun did not sit firmly on the coaching bench as usual.He stood on the sidelines from the very beginning today, watching every move on the court.People say that men are the most handsome when they are doing things seriously. At this time, Chen Zhun perfectly explained this truth. In the fan stands on the bench of the away team, a group of Chelsea female fans who had nothing to do with the situation on the field started to talk about the head coach of the away team. , I don’t know if Mourinho will faint if he hears this, but how Chen Zhun will feel if he knows this.

"Hey, look, the head coach of Southampton is so handsome!"

"Yeah, I heard that I'm 31, but I don't have a date yet! It's a pity, if I'm not married, I must chase him!!"

"Yeah, what a pity, look, when he is directing from the sidelines, what a man!!"

It turns out that nympho behavior is the same all over the world.

"After the opening, neither Chelsea nor Southampton were entangled too much in the midfield. They drove to the other side's penalty area to look for opportunities. Southampton center back Michael Swensen continued to pass long passes to find the forward Peter Crouch on the field. The ball is pushed over the left touchline by Chelsea centre-back John Terry. Southampton win a throw-in on the left touchline. John Delap throws The foul. John Delap wiped the moisture off the ball with his jersey, then stepped back to the billboard. John Delap looked at the field, ran up, and threw the foul. Oh! The long-lost grenade tactic John Delap's throw-in was high and floating, and it was thrown directly to the left near the penalty area line. The Chelsea players did not expect John Depp's throw-in to go so far, they were all stupid in the penalty area Standing. James Beatty got rid of John Terry's defense and easily grabbed the first point. The ball went to the middle with a header! Marian Pajas, who was ambushing in the middle, was unguarded!!

Chen Zhun's calm face became tense, and his determined eyes were a little wandering, as eager as a child looking forward to a gift from his parents on his birthday.

Chen Zhun was thinking silently in his heart.

goal!goal!goal!
