Red Rebels

In the away dressing room at Highbury Stadium, Mourinho scanned the 11 players sitting in front of him one by one. His biggest impression was youth.

Before the game, Xiao Yu specially found Mourinho and talked with him for more than half an hour. The two discussed the future direction of the club. Xiao Yu strongly supported Mourinho. In his words, a The outcome of a game is not important, what matters is the future of the team.

Running a team is like running a company. With the development, at every stage, it is necessary to appropriately change the management policy and adjust the internal structure so that both inside and outside can catch up with the changes.

From its establishment to the present, the business philosophy has remained unchanged, but the specific business direction has always been changing according to local conditions. For example, after being promoted to the Premier League, Xiao Yu accepted the suggestion of the Ministry of Commerce and introduced Beckham. The team has gained both fame and fortune on and off the court!

After half a season of commercial promotion, when outside fans talk about it, the biggest impression is that the Premier League is a strong team. It is a strong team. It cannot reach the giants, and it is not a traditional strong team, but its strength is very strong, and its momentum even overwhelms Newcastle. Waiting for the traditional strong team is no longer the newly promoted team before the season.

And now, it's time for the club to make further adjustments!

Since the Football Association of Ghana and Ivory Coast have repeatedly emphasized that Essien, Drogba and Toure brothers are very important to them, they hope to release them back in advance, but Mourinho's request was not accepted by them, so the coaching staff considered, internal digging .

Redondo obviously has no way to place high hopes. Now he is more of a club image ambassador, and at the same time travels around some impoverished areas around the world to do some charity activities, so Mourinho wants to try to use Mikel and Michael Johnson .

In terms of signings, Xiao Yu has enough candidates, but since Mourinho doesn't plan to sign, Xiao Yu can't force him to have one. Besides, Mourinho's worries are right. Bloated and internal conflicts are not good for the team.

... "The boss asked me today, are we considered a strong team?" Mourinho's voice floated in the quiet locker room.

The players raised their heads in surprise and looked at their head coach with a thoughtful expression.

Someone outside said that Mourinho is very good at motivating and can always give the team a shot in the arm at critical moments!

"Do you know how I answered?" Mourinho suddenly smiled.

Some of the players were at a loss, still thinking about the meaning of Mourinho's words, and some shook their heads, expressing that they didn't know, but there was no doubt that they were all concerned about what Mourinho said.

"I said no, we're not!"

Huo turned around, came to the front of the tactical board, and slapped the Arsenal tactical map on the tactical board.

"What is a strong team?" Mourinho asked.

The players didn't know how to answer, and none of them dared to speak out.

"The simplest and most direct understanding is that we don't care about any opponent, we don't care how the opponent will deal with us, we will play the football we are best at, and we will win a game in the way we are best at. victory!"

The players were a little excited by Mourinho's words, and they seemed to be agitated.

"What is our best method? Desperate? Defend? Attack?"

Mourinho is very good at providing space for players to think, he will let the players understand the meaning of his words.

"I don't think so. Our football is about control, oppression, and aggression. If Arsenal are the aristocrats of London, then we are rebels who covet their wealth and status. We want to overthrow their rule, use their wealth and Power to strengthen ourselves; if Arsenal are elegant ladies, then we are savage conquerors, and we will let them beg for mercy at our crotch!"

The three words that Mourinho emphasized all have one thing in common, that is, the initiative!

Yes, he has decided that from now on, he will play more actively in any game!

"Arsenal's left is a hidden danger.

I know, you know, everyone outside knows..." Mourinho suddenly laughed, "Wenger must know, people who don't know are fools, so I let Maicon replace Kolo Touré in this game Starting, are we going to play the opponent's left? "

"No, guys, I'm not that stupid, am I?" Mourinho smiled slyly.

…………………… In Xiao Yu’s previous life, there were many articles analyzing Wenger’s character, among which was mentioned the biggest flaw about him, which was his psychological quality.

Wenger is not a head coach like Ferguson or Mourinho, nor is he like Benitez or Ancelotti. He is unique, but his personality flaws are obvious. It is his on-the-spot command and hesitation at critical moments that make his team always lose the chain at the most critical moments.

The head coach is the soul of a team, Wenger is the soul of Arsenal!

Of course, there is no doubt about Wenger's role in Arsenal, and there is no need to doubt his promotion of English football, but no one is perfect, right?

When Wenger saw Mourinho's starting list, he was a little surprised, because Mourinho replaced Kolo Touré, who was more stable in defense, with Maicon, who has stronger offensive power, in the starting lineup. kind of signal.

A signal of wanting to attack the right side of the game?

Palacio's performance this season is amazing enough, coupled with the support of Kaka and Essien, he is like a fish in water on the right, and now there is another Maicon who is stronger in attack than defense, Mourinho is not worried at all Pires and Henry?

Evra and Robben on the left, Maicon and Palacio on the right, the wing is really terrible!

"Before Mourinho announced that he would attack with all his strength!" the assistant said beside him.

Wenger shook his head, "No, that's the psychological warfare of the Portuguese. He has never been the kind of person who will attack with all his strength!"

"But just in case, if they really attack..."

"Let the winger and two forwards suppress their defense, I don't believe Mourinho dares to press up!" Wenger made up his mind!

In the duels against Arsenal, Arsenal almost always lost in defense, and their performance against strong teams this season was also unsatisfactory. Except for Chelsea, the two games against Manchester United and Liverpool relied on the personal ability of the players.

In this regard, Wenger has also been fully prepared!

…………………………………… When the players from both sides came out from the tunnel, there was a burst of earth-shattering boos from the stands of the Highbury Stadium, apparently from the players who were pounced on.

But one by one, the players appeared to be full of morale, ignored the boos and walked into the field.

"Your team is also good!" Eva's grandfather praised.

Xiao Yu smiled and accepted it politely.

In order to watch the game safely, he specially asked Arsenal to arrange a box for himself and Eva's family to watch the game.

Thousands of fans also came to London for this game, but they only occupied a corner of the stands at Highbury Stadium and could not pose too much threat to the home team at all.

This is also what all home teams do to fans of the visiting team. They can't be specially arranged to influence their own players, right?

Beckham and Vieira guessed and won the kick-off.

The formations of the two sides spread out, and looking from the box, Arsenal played 442 and 4231, both of which are the usual formations of both sides, but the formations at this time are not accurate.

When the referee blew the whistle to start the game, kick off first.

Arsenal's four attacking players began to siege to a certain extent in the frontcourt, but they were more skilled in passing and receiving, pushing forward layer by layer, and always controlled the ball at their feet.

Palacio and Robben live on two sides. The former always sticks to the opponent's defense line, while the latter retreats a little and pulls out of the opponent's defensive range. Kaka's position is also very forward, but he frequently Retracement, on the contrary, Drogba is more active in the area between the opponent's Campbell and Xigan.

After the opening, the possession of the ball was exchanged back and forth between Arsenal and Arsenal.

"These two teams are known as the most entertaining matchup in the Premier League. They are the most technical teams in the Premier League. Arsenal pay attention to ball possession. Although they don't pursue ball possession, they pay great attention to technical details. , which makes both sides rarely make mistakes in cooperation.”

"From the perspective of the scene, this game is more open than before, especially in terms of width. Robben and Palacio are both very wide apart. It is obvious that they consciously want to make a fuss about the width, while Arsenal Na also wanted to attack on the two sides, so Ljungberg and Henry frequently appeared on the side, but Pires was closer to the center."

"Hey, the referee called an offside!" Andy Gray laughed.

Palacio shook his head and walked back with a wry smile, but he did not forget to turn his head and give Beckham a thumbs up when he sent him a precise oblique long pass. At the moment he started, Arsenal set up an offside trap for him .

"Beckham's oblique long pass is the most powerful killer this season. Ronaldinho, Robben, Palacio and Kaka are all very fast players. Once they catch a chance , That’s almost a hit!” Martin Taylor said with a smile.

"That's right, but Wenger is obviously aware of this in this game and began to consciously guard against this tactic, so Robben and Palacio have each been offside once since the beginning of the game. This is definitely not aimless!" (=half-/floating*-sheng+)ww.anueng.om

Martin Taylor nodded and said: "But the risk of offside tactics is also great. Once the opportunity is seized, it will be a fatal blow, especially the personal abilities of the four frontcourt players are very outstanding!"

The ball was passed back and forth quickly between Arsenal and the players, and frequently fell into Arsenal's offside trap, but Arsenal also failed to find a way to send the ball into the penalty area.

It can be said that both sides have their own ways of defeating the enemy!

Mourinho glanced at his watch on the sidelines. 15 minutes had passed, but the score was still 0:0. Although the scene was beautiful and both sides played very openly, in fact there were not many real threats. The long-range shot was a direct free kick, and Beckham's free throw was caught by Lehmann.

This game can be said to be the most open game played this season. Among them, Henry's long shot from outside the penalty area scared Mourinho into a cold sweat. Essien would not give Henry such a chance, but not now.

Looking at Kassel behind him, the latter nodded. Mourinho thought about it again, took a few steps forward, and nodded towards Maicon.

His latest order was immediately transmitted to the field!
