Chapter 502

Before the game against Chelsea, Wolfsburg players have thought many times about what kind of team they will play against. Although the conservatism and prudence of Jose is well known in the world, his team is just Wolfsburg, not Bayern. They have not imagined that he will use more balanced offensive and defensive tactics because he looks down on his team.

After all, Jose is a proud man and may despise Wolfsburg - such an idea is also hopeful. However, when Wolfsburg stood at Stamford Bridge Stadium, watching the opponent's platoon, they clearly realized that they really want more.

Standing on the pitch, listening to the shouts of the fans around, looking at the opponent's lineup, Gao shunyao can only sigh for a while. After playing as a striker for so many years, sometimes he can guess the opponent's thoughts by looking at his opponent's arrangement. And no matter how you look at it, this game, it seems that Jose is going to play a defensive counterattack.

That's not to say how strong the team is - although the back line looks good, if you look at it carefully, you will find that they may not be as good as people think. Although this defensive line is famous, there are still some problems when it comes to strength.

There is no change in the goalkeeper's use of Cech in Chelsea's defence. Their four defenders are azpilikuta, Terry, Gary Cahill and Ivanovic. If we say that this defensive line is famous, but if we look at the playing method and strength carefully, we will feel that there is a big problem.

First of all, their two full backs are basically without any offensive ability. In Wolfsburg's tactics, magate extremely emphasizes that the two flanks are different in turn. It seems that neither side of Chelsea's two flanks can get on.

Ivanovic was born as a centre back, playing on the wing, it is difficult for him to give full play to the advantage of support, the player's Cross is amazing, this is not news, and no one knows it. Azpilikuta used to be a right back and was changed to a left back by Jose. His defensive ability is excellent, but he didn't play much at the offensive end.

They are not top defenders, but the problem is that they only have problems in attack. On the defensive side, they do quite well. Azpilikuta and Ivan are on the same side, which basically confirms that the attack of Chelsea is impossible to expect support from the back court. From the personnel allocation, they are determined to let the flank defend rather than take the initiative.

And if it's just the side, it's not hard to understand. Wolfsburg are good at playing on the sidelines, and it's understandable for Chelsea to do so. However, when we look at the layout of the middle road of Chelsea, Gao shunyao can also sigh to himself: as a coach, he can really pull down his face.

Like the configuration of the flanks, their middle players are the same. You can see at a glance that they are ready to play defensive counterattack.

If you look at the defence of Chelsea, their core character is naturally Cahill. Gary Cahill is a very good player, but he is still a step away from the real star. The player is stable, conscientious and has no short board on the pitch, which can be said to be his biggest advantage, but in the final analysis, the player is still an English defender.

In recent years, in Europe, English football is getting worse and worse. With the aging of Gerrard, Lampard and other people, England's star players are becoming less and less, and their strength has been questioned a lot. There is no doubt that English football is far behind. However, it does not mean that English defenders are useless. There is a big difference between the style of playing football and that of the European continent. They head better and focus on the game. These are their advantages, but they have a general sense of position, weak ability to hold the ball, and because they are tall, they have problems with their turning speed. These are also common problems of English defenders. As an English player, although Cahill is the best defender in England now But these aspects of him are still irreparable. On the whole, he is qualified, but absolutely not strong.

If this game, Wolfsburg is against an ordinary team, then his level of players, is also quite good. However, Chelsea is not an ordinary team, they are the top powerful team, think about the reputation of the front and back line of Chelsea, Gary Cahill this player, it seems that some do not match.

His poor delivery, a little bit poor filling, and very slow turning speed all determine that he has a very small range of activities and can only defend in the back court.

What's more interesting is that in this game, Cahill's partner is Terry: if it was five years ago, no one in the world would dare to say that Terry is not a good defender. But with the passage of time, Terry has already refused to accept the past. From the beginning of last season, Terry has not been the main force of Chelsea's iron fight, and even once it was said that he was about to leave Chelsea - no matter how good the players can't stand the torture of time, Terry is old, which can't be denied.

If it wasn't for the internal team struggle of Chelsea that he had no choice but to put such a veteran on the stage, his idea would be obvious.Cahill is not quick to turn around, and his skill is not fine. These things are his inherent problems. If he is really ready to let his team have some control or attack mentality, he will naturally be accompanied by players like David Lewis so that they can complement each other. However, in this crucial game, he was put up by the manager, no doubt he wanted to let him and Cahill, the two English defenders, head the ball to win enough air superiority for Chelsea.

In the face of Wolfsburg, almost all of the tactics arranged by him only consider defense, and the defender's foot skill is not enough. I'm afraid that he didn't want to make up for this problem at all - anyway, his team never rely on the central defender to get the ball in front of him.

If you don't control the ball, don't control it. Turn around slowly, then pull back the back line - Gao shunyao can think of how to make up for their problems, just think about it, and the tactical ideas of Chelsea are ready to come out.

They just want to stay in the pit - even if it's at home, the team's strength is far better than the opponent's, so he chose to do it.

In fact, this decision is very clear when you look at the midfield that he has arranged for this game: in front of a defence line of Chelsea, he has arranged David Lewis and Martini to be double backs, which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to defence.

In this era, double back is very popular in football. Many teams like to use two back in the game. However, this pair of Chelsea's back midfielders are different from those of Wolfsburg or Bayern. Other people's back midfielders need both technology and defense. Generally, one is responsible for sweeping and the other is responsible for controlling the rhythm. This is also the standard configuration. The two men of Chelsea are famous for their large defensive area and strong confrontation ability. What Mattic does in Wolfsburg is to let go, while Louis is a defender. Their ability to organize attack and control rhythm is only average. Sweeping ability, excellent.

It's no surprise that we have two back midfielders all at once. Obviously, Jose also knows that his backcourt players are slow and can't stand the impact and need enough protection. Two players with a good sweep area, enough to make the backcourt squat more stable, more assured.

However, the strength of protection seems to be too strong - looking at the front court, Gao shunyao also found that Jose was a little too careful. He not only arranged for two back midfielders to grab the ball, but also used Azar, Oscar and William on the front midfield.

His idea is very straightforward: the back court decided to defend, so the front court players, naturally, are mainly defensive and counter attack. In this game, the front court of Chelsea, the three front midfielders arranged, except for Azar, are two players with average offensive ability, but they are both willing to put their energy into the defensive end. Put it on the court at the same time, that is basically to say, the tactics of Chelsea is to prepare to snatch from the front to the back, focusing on defense.

It's not easy for a big team to keep such a low profile against Wolfsburg. Looking at the other side's defense, Gao shunyao has a headache. How can he score goals.

It may be really hard to score in this game.

However, although this kind of thought has produced, but when he saw opposite party's attack line, basically also can be swept away.

Chelsea put a lot of force into the defense, which makes them on the offensive end, there are almost no people to rely on. Apart from Azar on the left side, their front striker can only use Schuller - after all, this kind of important game, Jose will not use Torres, he is not bored to challenge hell mode in the key game.

As for Schuller, Gao shunyao is also familiar with him. He knows very well that he is not suitable to be a center, but a shadow forward. Now let him play in that position. I'm afraid he'll play in a good condition. In this way, all the pressure of Chelsea's goals will be on Azar.

It may be difficult to attack, but compared with Azar, it is much easier: after all, from the tactical aspect, he can hardly get any help, and in Wolfsburg's tactics, Gao shunyao can get a lot of support. The strength of the other side is really strong, but Gao shunyao has reason to believe that with the support of his teammates, he will play better than him.

He doesn't believe he will lose if he scores first in this game.
