Chapter 351 Intense midfield competition

"Man City made a beautiful counterattack! The 37-year-old Lampard penetrated Arsenal's defense with a pass, while Aguero equalized the score with his personal ability!"

Andy Gray laughed: "Now the two sides are tied again! This game is interesting!"

As a commentator and audience, they naturally want to see the scene as chaotic as possible without supporting any of the teams.

The best is the goal scene that you chase after me!

The current Arsenal and Manchester City are showing such signs.

"The problem on Arsenal's side has also been exposed. Kai's position is too high and he is too involved in the attack. It turns out that Flamini cannot play Kai's stealing and interception role in midfield!"

Andy Gray looked at Wenger and said, "What will the professor do?"

At the coach's seat, Wenger's expression was flat.

Even though he was equalized, he still did not have the slightest emotional fluctuation.

As if he knew about the goal.

Of course, this also shows that Wenger still has some confidence.

Wenger looked at Flamini.

Flamini is easy to use, this is a more comprehensive player.

But to be honest, his offense is not as good as Cazorla, and he cannot replace Lucky in defense.

Comprehensive is comprehensive, but without the slightest feature.

Now football advocates diversity of players.

Along with the richness and diversification of tactics, the quality of the players is also being tested.

Today's professional football is no longer the era when forwards are only responsible for shooting and defenders are only responsible for defense.

You can often see that the striker is desperately grabbing the ball in the frontcourt!

The fullback dribbled and rushed directly to the opponent's penalty area line!

This is the development direction of modern techniques and tactics, and at the same time, it also requires the diversification of players' abilities.

Of course, not every player is required to be like this.

Only a few are enough for a comprehensive one!

Some well-defined players are still needed.

for example

"N'Golo, let's warm up!"

Hearing the words, Kante got up immediately and ran to the sidelines to warm up.

Kante's expression is very excited. Since the beginning of the season, he has always been able to get the opportunity to play, which also means that Wenger values it very much.

This also made Kante more confident.

After came to the Premier League, Kante went through a period of confusion for a while, but quickly got his position right.

Now Kante is working hard to become the main force of Arsenal!

In the game, Flamini was under a lot of pressure, especially after seeing Kante warm up, he knew that his performance was questioned by the professor.

After entering this season, the competition within Arsenal's team has become more and more intense.

Although it was not stated clearly, many people knew exactly what Arsenal wanted.

In order to achieve this goal, all Arsenal people need to work together, and in this process, once a player falls behind, whether intentionally or not, but falling behind is falling behind.

Like Flamini, he was already feeling a lot of pressure.

In Arsenal, there are two absolute main players in the midfield, Le Kai and Cazorla, so the pressure on the midfielders is the greatest.

Because they are competing for that last midfield spot!

40 minutes later, Manchester City scored an equalizer goal, which was not good news for Arsenal.

And after this goal, the two sides also tacitly did not attack.

Instead, put the outcome in the second half.

"Be sure to force it up! The pressure in the backcourt is too much!"

In Manchester City's locker room, Sabaleta was shirtless and shouted loudly: "You don't know, and you don't want to go back to defense. You guys threw all defense work to us, but you scored goals! Let us lead. what!"

Zabaleta was out of balance by Di Maria in the first half.

At this time, this is the only way to vent anger.

And his teammates and coaches knew this, so no one interrupted him.

After everyone vented their opinions and anger, Manchester City coach Pellegrini said: "I know you are in a bad mood now, but you have to be clear, Arsenal is the defending champion, I am not touting. Instead, they tell you that the team we are fighting against is an opponent that will give us our all!"

"To win, we need to work harder! Use what you have to defeat the enemy!"

"The game is not over, the remaining 45 minutes are enough for you to play!"

After finishing speaking, Pellegrini nodded with satisfaction when he saw that everyone's expressions softened a little.

On the other hand, Arsenal's locker room was full of discussion.

"You can't be cowardly! You must press on and kick!"

"Our offense was effective, and despite their equalization, we knew very well that we had the ability to win the game!"

"We know exactly how to attack, so as long as the back line is stable, we will definitely win!"

"Attack! Playing against Manchester City on the road, that's cool!"

Everyone was talking in a mess, and everyone's expressions were frenzied.

Although they were levelled in the first half, they were not frustrated, they knew exactly how to win the game.

also fully felt the possibility of victory.

Moreover, this game was better than any previous game!

Especially the strikers!

At this time, they have turned into attacking fanatics. As long as they score goals and let them wreak havoc in the opponent's penalty area, everything can be said.

"I'll retreat!"

Lucky suddenly raised his hand to speak.

As soon as the voice fell, the scene suddenly became quiet.

In particular, the teammates who were clamoring to attack before looked at each other in dismay.

Lucky belongs to a 'stable' character, as long as he can win the game, it doesn't matter.

He does not have such a strong offensive need, even if he does not shoot or assist in the whole game, he can only participate in defense.

But the premise is that you must win!

Wenger looked at Le Kai, saw the latter's firm eyes, nodded and said, "In the second half, put your double midfielders behind!"

Hearing this, Flamini showed a hint of frustration.

The double midfielder is placed behind, which is to let the midfielder defend.

In this case, Kanter's role is greater than him, and combined with the previous warm-up, it is not difficult to guess the ending.

"But Kai still has to be involved in the attack."

Wenger looked at Lucky again.

Lekai pursed his lips slightly and said, "Professor, I'm not denying you, but we need to win the game more safely!"

Wenger laughed suddenly.

"Won the game safely? Can this game decide the title of the league?"

Hearing this, Le Kai was stunned for a moment.

Wenger continued; "This game has a certain weight, but it won't let us play so conservatively, I need you to show more creativity."

Wenger's words are very euphemistic, but it is not difficult to understand the meaning inside.

means to try more!

You can't talk about training, but you must put a little pressure on the foundation, and better run your tactics in this level of competition.

If it was the previous Arsenal, Wenger would not have done this. After all, the result of the wave will only make him deeply regret.

But now Arsenal are different.

They have the ability to chasing points.

Being behind for a while is nothing!

And this is the beginning of the season, so there is not much practice at this time, when will you practice?

When is it time for a battle of points?

Wenger looked down at the time and said: "Okay, boys, the second half will continue the same way as the first half."

The players got up and prepared to leave the locker room.

Wenger took the initiative to walk over, squeezed Lekai's shoulder and said, "Participate in the offense more."

Le Kai said helplessly; "You can't blame me for losing the game!"

Wenger laughed: "I'll take charge!"

Le Kai shook his head helplessly and walked out immediately.

After halftime, both sides came to the arena.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again!

Neither side changed players at half-time.

However, the players' positions have changed a bit.

Lampard on the Manchester City side is slightly in the middle, while on the Arsenal side, Flamini and Luckey exchange positions.

Apparently, Wenger has started to use the old routine again.

Navas has a lot of impact, so put the hardest wall in the arsenal in front of you and make your head smash!

Wenger's move is time-tested.

Lekai has directly become Wenger's trump card, where do you need to move!

Ding! !

The ball was like a rainbow across the sun, hitting Manchester City's goal crossbar.

The huge 'ding' sound seemed to tell them how powerful this kick was.

Lucky stomped his feet in annoyance as he watched the long-range shot not score.
