Chapter 346 Talk
The first three rounds of the 2014-2015 Premier League season have ended, and major clubs have gradually adapted to the new season.
Throughout the first three rounds, Chelsea and Arsenal continued the state of last season and won three consecutive victories.
Manchester City overturned Stoke City at home in the third round under the condition of two consecutive wins.
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur also have two wins and one defeat, but Liverpool's defeat is an away loss to Manchester City, so there is no big problem.
The Red Devils Manchester United are still in a slump. They lost 1-2 to Swansea in the first round, they were drawn 1-1 by Sunderland on the road, and they were drawn 0-0 by Burnley again in the third round.
After three rounds, one draw and two losses, it can be called a heavenly start.
After the coaching change, the Red Devils fans thought they had sent away a troublesome Moyes, and they wanted to do a big job in the new season.
But with one draw and two losses, the huge gap almost made them depressed.
Manchester United fans thought that the Dutch coach Van Gaal could give them the future they wanted, but after three games, some public turmoil began to appear.
Therefore, it is not easy to be a coach of a giant.
Not to mention the coach of Manchester United, with Ferguson in front of him. In this comparison, the pressure is huge.
For Arsenal, the first three rounds are an adaptation period, and now this period is over, and the main game should begin.
In the fourth round, Arsenal will play Manchester City away!
This is also the focus battle of the fourth round.
Manchester City not only failed to reach the championship zone due to their poor performance last season, but even lost their qualification for the Champions League.
This makes them want to start over in the new season.
However, due to the too much investment last season, Manchester City needs to digest it for a while, so there is no sky-high transfer.
But what is missing is to bring the Blues star Lampard from New York City in the MLS.
Lampard just announced his move to the MLS at Chelsea, and after a round and round, he returned to the Premier League season.
Lampard is mainly to supplement the injured Yaya Toure's position. Although the magic lamp is older, Manchester City still feels that it has enough competitiveness.
Manchester City's squad hasn't changed much, but the overall tacit understanding is stronger than last season.
But what exactly can be played, Arsenal is not particularly clear.
After all, Manchester City at this stage has some nerve knives, and their state is ups and downs. Sometimes they play fiercely, but sometimes they are soft and deadly.
Even so, for Arsenal, Manchester City is still a strong enemy that cannot be ignored.
Moreover, after this game, Arsenal will immediately enter the group stage of the Champions League.
Arsenal are in Group D and they meet Dortmund again.
And the first game is away to Dortmund.
In the two key games, Arsenal cannot have any negligence.
Shoo! !
The ball got into the goal, and Navas reluctantly removed the ball from the goal.
At the same time, he looked at Lucky who was running back.
Lucky's recent state is a bit overwhelming!
Long shots and key passes are a sharp one.
There are even scenes of 'walking a thousand miles alone'. Although most of them rely on collisions, to be honest, once Lucky is activated, the pressure and impact on the tonnage will not be tolerated by everyone. of.
After entering Lucky's range, not only must beware of Lucky's scoring, but also be wary of long-range shots.
It can be said that during this time, Le Kai put a lot of goalkeeping pressure on Navas.
In this state of Lucky, other players were also motivated and performed quite positively.
Wenger stood on the sidelines, looked at Le Kai's back, nodded slightly, and then turned his eyes to the others.
"The fourth round is the key!"
Patrice nodded and said; "Yes, the previous games were considered adaptation periods, and Manchester City, a strong opponent, is the opponent to test the lineup, whether Di Maria and Sanchez can withstand the pressure and perform well, whether they really integrate into Whether there are problems or flaws in the team and tactics, these need our attention."
Wenger: "I'll leave the record to you."
"Okay." Patrice nodded in response.
Wenger stepped forward and shouted: "Okay, today's training is over, everyone gathers in the tactics room!"
In the tactical room, Wenger looked at the players below and said, "In the next game, we will play 4-2-3-1!"
As soon as the voice fell, the players were stunned.
This lineup is more offensive and pays attention to the control of the midfield.
Three attacking midfielders with two midfielders.
The three attacking midfielders should effectively attack through various transpositions and cooperation in the opponent's dangerous zone, so as to achieve the goal of breaking the opponent's goal.
The double midfielder is an effective forward attack while defending, enriching the content of the attack.
It can be said that this tactic is set to win the midfield control.
Arsenal relied more on defensive counterattacks last season, especially when facing those strong teams.
But after entering this season, Wenger is no longer satisfied with this passive attacking method.
He wanted to be more active.
Of course, this may also be the re-emergence of Wenger's passing control addiction.
But I have to say that Arsenal really has this ability now.
Of course, this lineup puts a lot of pressure on the double midfielder.
Especially Lucky, as a core player, Lucky's performance greatly affects the state of the entire team.
Arsenal can control the midfield rhythm only if Luckey wins Manchester City in the midfield confrontation.
Now facing Manchester City, Wenger put the winning chips on Lucky.
Lucky's expression became serious, and he also knew what he needed to do.
If it was a year or two ago, he might have been a little timid.
But now, after two seasons of baptism in the top league, the Champions League and the World Cup, Lekai has a certain confidence in his ability!
What about players like David Silva and Lampard?
He is 21 years old!
Those are old guys!
What are you afraid of!
"Professor, how many goals do you want to see us score?"
Lucky said directly.
This half-joke made the atmosphere of the scene a lot more relaxed.
Cazorla gave a thumbs up; "Cow!"
Sanchez even laughed; "We have stopped thinking about winning, but are we going to score a few?"
"I want a hat trick!"
"Then I want a big four!"
Everyone laughed and laughed, and the tension that was originally there was gone.
Even Wenger couldn't help laughing; "Okay! Be serious, all jokes are jokes, but Manchester City is not easy to play."
Immediately, Wenger began to make detailed tactical arrangements.
It is not difficult to see from the tactics that the overall tactical trend of Arsenal is very gentle.
But Lucky has to play the role of a metronome, such as a sudden change of rhythm to accelerate the attack and so on.
Of course, Arsenal's metronome is not only a Lucky, Cazorla can also play this role.
This is also the reason why Arsenal's attack is enriched.
Arsenal has two ball turrets.
If we say that Cazorla is a sharp sword, sharp and sharp.
Lucky is a cannon!
Powerful and deadly enough!
After the tactical lesson, the players left, but Wenger kept Wilshere.
The two finally left and walked towards the office together.
Wenger is in the front, Wenger is in the back.
Wilshere looked at Wenger's back, thinking of when he was just promoted from the youth training to the first team, that is how Wenger brought him here.
And now, he is likely to leave!
He is Arsenal's No. 10!
But he didn't play as well as a No. 10.
Not only did Arsenal lose patience with him, but he also lost confidence.
Many times, he wished he hadn't asked for the No. 10 jersey.
The number 10 jersey that was glorious for him at the time has now become the fuse that prompted him to leave.
Clap!
The office door was closed, Wenger sat on the sofa, smiled at Wilshere and said, "Sit down."
Wilshere's expression was a little stiff. He wanted to be as natural as possible, but unfortunately, he couldn't smile.
The two sat facing each other for a long time.
Wenger did not speak.
Wilshere couldn't speak.
The silence lasted for a full ten minutes before Wenger sighed a long time; "It should be 2007, I can't remember it!"
Wilshere lowered his head and said; "It's 2008."
Wenger nodded and sighed; "Unconsciously, six years have passed!"
