Four Hundred and Seventy-Fourth, Do You Understand My Demonstration?
"It seems that Wenger has guessed your thoughts."
In front of the coaching bench of the visiting team, Zidane said calmly when he saw the Gunner throwing the ball.
"Not surprising." Gao Shen replied with a frown.
Although it is always the opponent who knows oneself best, it is hard to say.
After so many years, it is impossible for Wenger not to know where the problems of his team are, just as it is impossible for him not to know why Arsenal have been reduced to the top four every year and the knockout rounds of the Champions League.
Once or twice, he can still tell clearly, but after so long, how could he not know?
The answer is that there are some things he cannot change, or is unwilling to change.
It's like keeping the top four every year, doesn't that mean he doesn't want to?
Certainly not, the condition does not allow.
As for Arsenal's style of play, Wenger is definitely unwilling to change.
There are so many young players, and in an environment like the Premier League, Wenger can't come up with a more effective way to stick to the technical flow.
Buying people costs money.
The current European football is different from the past. There are not many leftover jewels to be found, but those players with outstanding strength and outstanding talent are basically stared at by countless people as soon as they make their debut.
You get what you pay for, and the gunman can't grab it.
It is precisely because of this that what Gao Shen did in Naples caused such a shock in European football.
From Real Madrid to Naples, he has excavated and cultivated too many young players and teenagers, and at the same time found too many leftover pearls, which makes the high-level coaching more than just achieving results.
To some extent, Gao Shen is helping the club make money, and making a lot of money!
...
With Clichy throwing a throw-in, Arsenal began to attack Naples, but Gao Shen quickly realized the problem.
Both of Arsenal's full-backs tonight were pressed high.
"This guy is really not conservative tonight, on the contrary, he is very proactive." Gao Shen laughed.
Zidane nodded, and looked at the positions of the two full-backs, they were already further forward than the midfielders Song and Fabregas.
Especially in the second minute, when Arsenal made an attack from the left, Nasri took the ball with his back and took the initiative to bring it back, but Clichy suddenly went along the left and quickly slipped in, forming a cross running position.
Fortunately, Di Maria was chasing all the way, which prevented Chrissy from running out of space.
Gao Shen immediately spoke out, reminding his players to pay attention to the thrusting strength of the Arsenal full-backs, and he also noticed that Van Persie and Adebayor were also about to move.
These two forwards often take turns to pull side support, and both have strong personal abilities.
This is true for Chrissy on the left, and so is Sagna on the right.
This made Gao Shen have to signal that the team's formation should be retreated a little bit, and let's talk about stabilizing the ground for the time being.
But Gao Shen was still at ease.
Because he found that Arsenal's wing attack seemed good, but it was difficult to create a threat.
In the fourth minute of the game, Chrissy on the left and Sagna on the right each made a cross, both of which went to the front point, but one time Thiago Mota retreated in time and controlled the fall. Point, once David Luiz preemptively blocked the ball.
Both failed to pose a threat.
This proves that as long as Naples controls the center, facing this kind of wing cross, the defensive problem is not big.
Of course, it is also impossible to allow the opponent to pass indiscriminately.
It didn't work on the wing, and Arsenal made an attempt in the center.
Tonight, Nasri gave Clichy more of the wing, and he frequently went to the center to get the ball and cooperate with Cesc Fabregas.
The first shot of the game came from a two-two and one-on-the-wall, but Fabregas' shot was blocked by Thiago Motta, and it didn't even reach Napoli's goal.
Walcott then used his speed to forcibly overtake Vargas on the right and kicked a cross, but the center was still controlled by Naples.
In general, in the opening four minutes,
The offensive and defensive transitions of the two teams were very fast, and both sides created some opportunities. Among them, the home team Arsenal attacked more times, but they failed to pose a threat.
"The Gunner's attack is nothing new!" Gao Shen was slightly relieved.
From this opening, it proves that Arsenal's offensive routines are really limited.
Unless there is an oversight in Naples' own defense, otherwise, several of their offensive routines are within Naples' expectations.
Entering the fifth minute, after gradually stabilizing the start, Gao Shen signaled that the team should appropriately strengthen the restrictions on Adebayor and Fabregas.
Arsenal obviously also attached great importance to pressing the Naples midfielder.
When the game progressed to the fifth minute, when Thiago Motta received a pass back from his teammate, Arsenal midfielder Song pressed all the way, chased directly to a very high position, and failed to grab the ball. Tripped Thiago Motta.
It gave Naples a free kick not far from the outside of the penalty area.
It can also be seen from this point that Arsenal's pressing pressure is really great.
But in turn, Lian Song can press so high, it can be seen that Arsenal's midfielder is really not very reliable.
Because it was Cesc Fabregas who was dragged in the end.
Just when Arsenal's defense was slowly retreating, and everyone thought that Naples would take this free kick from Handanovic, David Luiz suddenly ran forward.
Gao Shen immediately clenched his fists excitedly, and his eyes were fixed on the court.
...
Napoli's midfield and Arsenal's midfield are going back.
Yes, it is walking back slowly, not running.
But no one thought that David Luiz would suddenly run up to a free throw, because this position is very close to the penalty area.
Napoli's center forward Cavani, who was at the top, reacted the fastest, and suddenly sprinted forward, leading Arsenal's two central defenders Gallas and Toure to follow quickly.
David Luiz's long pass was very fast, the arc was relatively low, and it precisely landed in the line on the left side of the top of the arc in the penalty area, and Cavani also happened to catch up to this position. Leaping up high, grabbing the first landing point before the two central defenders of Arsenal took off, and ferrying the header to the left corner of the penalty area.
Gallas is over 1.8 meters tall, and Kolo Touré is less than 1.8 meters tall. The two central defenders have no advantage in front of Cavani, who is 1.88 meters tall. They can only barely block Cavani. So that he can not directly threaten the goal.
But the Uruguayan center forward flew the header to the outside of the left corner, which they could not control.
Sanchez chased up from behind, before Sagna, stopped the ball with his right foot to the outside, and quickly protected the ball himself.
Sarnia also settled down immediately, blocked the left corner of the penalty area, and formed a one-on-one with Sanchez.
At this moment, Cavani in the middle also made a gesture to go straight to the left side of the penalty area, ready to meet Sanchez.
Arsenal's two central defenders and the entire defensive line also moved, while Di Maria on the right was cruising around the right rib.
If Sanchez chooses to make an oblique pass to the back point, Di Maria will obliquely insert the penalty area from the right rib for the first time.
The presence of Di Maria attracted the attention of Clichy and Song, while the two central defenders paid attention to Cavani.
Sanchez took the ball and slowly approached Sagna.
When he was about to enter the Sarnia defense zone, Sanchez suddenly made a move to find Cavani, which frightened Sarnia and the defenders in the Arsenal penalty area to take precautions.
Unexpectedly, Sanchez just feigned a shot, swung the ball back laterally with the instep of his right foot, and then caught up with him. He saw that the defense line retreated into the penalty area, and there was a defensive vacuum in the front of the penalty area. A cross is delivered with the right foot.
The reverse-footed winger has an advantage at this time.
Sagna reacted quickly, but failed to stop Sanchez's right-footed cross.
The ball came to the left side of the arc top of the penalty area, and Rakitic, who was responding in the middle, rushed to the horse at this time. As soon as the ball stopped, it happened to stop in the penalty area, and there was no defensive player in front of him.
"Dangerous!!!"
"Arsenal's central lane is empty!!"
"Rakitic hit the goal straight away!!!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Less than six minutes into the game, Rakitic opened the scoring for the team in Naples!"
"This time with a very concise offensive strategy, Naples quickly sent a free kick from the backcourt, and directly sent a precise long pass to the frontcourt. Cavani took advantage of his height and flew the header to the left."
"Sanchez's right-footed pass was beautiful. Rakitic rushed forward all the way. The timing was just right. Arsenal's midfield was weak. Song didn't follow up with Rakitic in time. His The attention is on Di Maria."
"Let's look at this slow-motion playback again."
"If Song defended Rakitic, I believe that Sanchez would choose to pass his right foot diagonally to find Di Maria at the back point, and he would also be able to form a shooting opportunity."
"Napoli's entire offensive coordination, the thinking is very clear."
"This is already Rakitic's third consecutive knockout game goal, and all of them are plugged in!"
"I have to say that Naples is indeed unique in the design of offensive routines and the arrangement of players' advancement levels."
...
When he saw Rakitic shoot directly through the Arsenal goal near the penalty spot, Gao Shen was so excited that he jumped up on the spot and cheered loudly.
The ball came a bit suddenly, but it was not surprising at all.
From David Luiz's long pass, to Cavani's header ferry, to Sanchez's counterfoot kick to the left, and the right-footed cross, all were arranged by Naples early on, and the players reacted accordingly on the spot.
In the end, Rakitic's back shot finally played an effect and scored a goal.
Gao Shen turned around excitedly, hugged Zidane, Carlo and others one by one, then turned around and shouted hello to Rakitic and the Naples players who were walking back to the pitch, giving them praise.
After doing this, Gao Shen did not forget to look at Wenger in front of the coaching bench of the home team, and found that Wenger, who was also wearing a neat suit and a lucky red tie tonight, was already pale at this moment.
This is my demonstration!
Do you understand?
Gao Shen was full of excitement.
Look, am I right?
Playing Arsenal is not difficult at all!
It is not easy to score the Gunners' goals and kill Wenger's Arsenal!
