Chapter 522 Two champions in a downturn
Chelsea's bus is heading to the Emirates Stadium.
As a team that is also in London, the distance between the two teams is not far, which also makes them not need to be exhausted, but it is easy to win Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
And Chelsea are still in such a bad state.
Conte sat at the front of the bus, even on the way to the stadium, he was still working.
A large stack of documents in his hand.
Since yesterday, Conte has been studying how to beat Arsenal. He needs to use this victory to motivate the players and create an inflection point in the poor state of the league.
But is Arsenal really a good team?
Although the media are playing up the news of Arsenal's weakening, Conte is completely unconvinced.
If Arsenal are really weak, what happened to the Emirates Stadium tragedy?
Klopp's Liverpool was slaughtered at the Emirates Stadium!
Manchester City's winning streak was also interrupted by Arsenal.
Therefore, Conte did not dare to relax in the slightest.
"Arsenal's recent state is unstable, maybe we can easily win them, but not necessarily!"
said the assistant coach.
Conte turned his head to look at the latter silently, then turned back and continued to look down at the document.
This idiot!
Conte cursed inwardly.
What are the points for Arsenal?
What are the points for Chelsea?
How did this guy have the confidence to say this.
Arsenal is a formidable enemy from every angle, especially for Chelsea now.
Conte wanted to copy this guy a long time ago, but the club didn't allow it.
He felt that it was precisely because of the club's cover-up that the Chelsea coaching staff was allowed to sink more and more.
Suddenly, there were bursts of cheers from the outside world.
The cheers became more and more intense, until the bus drove to the entrance of the stadium, surrounded by the cheers of Arsenal fans.
Since Arsenal won the title last season, their football market has been a hot mess.
Under the already outrageous fare, there are still waves of crazy buying waves.
Today's Arsenal fans believe that despite the team's slump, they can still climb out of the quagmire.
Chelsea players silently walked into the pitch, ready for the game.
And at another channel, the Arsenal players also arrived on time.
After a short warm-up, the two teams came to the player tunnel to gather.
Lucky glanced briefly, all of them were familiar faces.
Except for Captain Terry, who was getting older and started to sit on the bench, the rest were all seniors from last season.
Especially Hazard.
This is the most stable point for Chelsea at the moment, and it is also Chelsea's thigh.
Compared to last season, Hazard's body is a little stronger, um. His **** is also a lot.
The Belgian has played extremely well this season.
Conte also created a play with Hazard at its core.
The midfield is supported by Cesc Fabregas and Matic in the back.
But to be honest, Cesc Fabregas is no longer the little trick he used to be, he has lost the magic of his Arsenal days.
This Chelsea team is already on the road to restructuring.
Thinking of this, Lucky turned to look at Arsenal.
The age structure is reasonable, but there are too few outstanding players.
A Kante is still in the process of growing, and it can be regarded as a promising future, and the rest of the players cannot be regarded as a true member of the championship.
Of course, they can also hone some coordination and play as a whole.
But is it really possible?
Or, is there really enough time?
"Two teams have come to the arena, as two champion teams, one Premier League champion and one Champions League champion! Arsenal and Chelsea have been affected in many ways this season."
"Compared to Arsenal, although Chelsea guarantees the retention of the champions, they cannot guarantee their status."
"Arsenal, on the other hand, lost a lot of champion players, such as the departure of Di Maria on the right wing, goalkeeper Navas and many key players, but the most important thing is that both teams have undergone changes in coaches."
"Chelsea is taking the initiative to change the coach, so it has a certain psychological preparation. Arsenal's Wenger is ill, which is also an important factor in the current ups and downs of Arsenal's state."
After Zhan Jun finished speaking, he briefly introduced the situation of the two teams in the standings.
At this time, the referee has already withdrawn from the middle circle, and the game is ready to start.
Arsenal (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Cech.
Defenders: Chambers, Mustafi, Koscielny, Gibbs.
Midfielder: Kante, Luckey, Flamini.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Suarez, Wilshere.
Chelsea (4-2-3-1):
Goalkeeper: Begovic.
Defenders: Ivanovic, Zouma, Cahill, Azpilicueta.
Midfielders: Pedro, Cesc Fabregas, Oscar, Matic, Hazard.
Striker: Costa.
followed by a whistle.
Suarez took the ball decisively and ran towards the front.
After getting the ball, Le Kai left and chose to pass back, but the moment he returned the pass, he was still pushed by the opponent, but he still passed the ball out.
Lucky frowned slightly, he felt that the situation was not good, Chelsea seemed to have some ideas about himself.
When Lucky touched the ball for the second time, this feeling became stronger and stronger.
Oscar came directly up to him and pressed him closely, and even Costa retreated to contain it.
For a while, Lucky had a hard time hitting the ball.
But he was still in time for Hazard to arrive, and he used a pick to kill the ball abruptly, and passed the ball to Kante.
Kante didn't dare to pass the ball to Lucky looking at the situation, but passed the ball to Aubameyang.
Le Kai watched his teammates attack forward, and he was extremely annoyed while keeping up.
Anyone who is targeted by the opponent's tactics feels extremely uncomfortable.
Lucky is not happy here, but Oscar is happy.
Looking at Lucky's aggrieved look, he felt extremely relieved.
This nightmare of my own was finally unbearable.
The happiest thing about Mourinho's departure is undoubtedly Oscar. Although he didn't dare to show it, he played under Mourinho and compared him with Lucky repeatedly, which made him live extremely well every day. uncomfortable.
And now that Mourinho is finally out, the new coach still values himself, which is very good news for Oscar.
For this reason, since the beginning of this season, he has also been full of fighting spirit!
The two teams began to frequently engage in physical confrontation at the beginning of the game.
This kind of confrontation occurs more in the process of pressing and containing.
Both Arsenal and Chelsea have adopted this tactic, so the collision between the two teams will inevitably increase.
And the collisions increased, and the smell of gunpowder came up.
Ivanovic just shoveled Aubameyang to the ground, and in less than a minute, Wilshere chased back frantically and overturned Hazard with the ball.
Both received yellow cards for this.
The two teams went head-to-head, and neither was to be outdone.
But the power of the yellow card is still great.
Both teams were short-lived and honest.
Due to Lekai's restrictions, Aubameyang and Wilshere were responsible for Arsenal's offense, with Lekai in the middle.
But even the simple scheduling task caused Lucky to get kicked a lot.
Chelsea guys rushed up one by one and kicked in circles.
Lucky wants to have a fight with these guys.
His hands were about to touch Oscar's neck. Le Kai saw the eye of the referee, and he gave up.
However, in terms of the progress of the game, Arsenal are very difficult to play.
Conte learned from other people's practice of restricting Arsenal, and directly restricted Lekai from the ball.
Once Luckey’s ball was misfired, the threat of Wilshere and Aubameyang became smaller.
This is also true. After Luckey was restricted, Arsenal's offense became stagnant.
This made Patrice and others on the sidelines anxious for a while.
They have been using various methods to make up for this problem, but it is still irreparable.
After Cazorla was injured, there was one less person in front of Lucky who served him as an outpost.
And Lucky itself does not have the same breakthrough and dribbling ability as Cazorla.
Whether it's Cazorla's return or Lucky's ability to develop enough personal abilities, these can't be accomplished in a short time.
Now, Lucky's shortcomings are completely exposed, which makes many people know how to beat Arsenal!
