"Producer Li, look at it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"A lot of bubbles. ”

"yes. ”

"It's so beautiful. ”

CCTV's production team was full of exclamations, and even some female staff members covered their mouths in amazement.

On December 3, 2003, in the fourth round of the League Cup, West Ham hosted London giants, and Chelsea, which is also the first upstart in the Premier League this season. Chelsea have spent hundreds of millions of pounds this summer to make a splash in world football. The biggest topic of conversation throughout the summer was who Chelsea were interested in. Now Chelsea are at Upton Park.

Because of Chen Ping's collaboration, the CCTV team found a position with a very good perspective. Start setting up in advance.

As they got closer to the start of the game, they suddenly noticed that the whole stadium was suddenly full of bubbles, colorful bubbles floating in the sky. West Ham fans were blowing bubbles, and more than 30,000 people played together, instantly filling the stadium with all kinds of bubbles.

It's spectacular.

"Quick, record, record. ”

Li Jianyong was very happy.

Although three League One matches have been recorded in the past half month, it is the first time I have seen such a beautiful picture today. There are bubbles everywhere, making Upton Park feel like a theater of dreams. Li Jianyong never thought that he would suddenly see such a scene today. It was the right decision to stay on your own.

Record.

This scene has to be recorded, and if the game is won, then this scene will be even more classic.

Of course, even if you lose this game, you are not afraid.

The English League One was filmed before, and this picture was used there, but the audience didn't know it anyway. Just let them see something so beautiful about Upton Park.

"Chen, Chen, Chen!"

"Whoa—"

When CCTV was filming bubbles, Chen Ping appeared on the court. Unlike at the beginning, Chen Ping has completely conquered West Ham fans with half a season's performance.

It doesn't matter if it's the Premier League or League One, the fans love to win the game. In the past two decades, West Ham under the leadership of Chen Ping has the highest winning rate. And all kinds of goals, all kinds of big scores.

Although it is only in League One, Chen Ping is still loved by many West Ham fans. Therefore, when Chen Ping appeared on the big screen, all West Ham fans stood up and gave Chen Ping a round of applause.

This was followed by a sharp increase in the number of bubbles on the pitch. If it was just a start, now is the real beginning. The entire Upton Park stadium is filled with bubbles of all kinds.

It's getting better and better.

"Hurry up, don't let this picture go. ”

Li Jianyong was very happy.

There is only one thing I hope for most now, and that is to win this game. If you defeat Chelsea, your shot will be the most complete. After all, compared to League One, a win over an opponent like Chelsea is more shocking.

After all, Chelsea are now second in the Premier League, qualified for the Champions League group stage, and spent hundreds of millions of pounds in the summer.

Chen Ping entered the pitch and walked straight to the Chelsea bench to shake hands with Ranieri. Didn't say anything, just a pre-match courtesy, and then went back to his place.

"The game is about to start. Before the game starts, let me introduce the starting line-ups of both sides. West Ham are exactly the same as Tottenham in the Carabao Cup third round. The goalkeeper is David James, the backline is Leyton Bynes, Daly, Repka and Glenn Johnson from left to right, the midfield is Frank Ribery, Michael Carrick, Lomas and Leo Cork from left to right, and the forward line is Richard Lambert and Jermaine Defoe. ”

'Let's take another look at Chelsea's starting line-up. Chelsea's goalkeeper is Sullivan, Terry, Galla and Melchiott at the back, Glen Shial, Makelele, Babayaro, Geremi, Joe Cole, Duff in midfield and Hasselbaink up front. Claudio Ranieri's starting XI was a bit odd, with a 3-6-1 line-up, a 3-4-2-1 line-up and a 5-4-1 line-up. It's not the back four that Chelsea have always excelled at, anyway. ”

Mortenson was puzzled.

Claudio Ranieri is an Italian coach who has played in a back four since arriving at Chelsea. But the starting lineup for this game is very inexplicable. It can be said to be a three-back play, or it can be said to be a five-back play.

If Glen Schal and Geremi are in midfield, then it's a back three. If you pull the two of them to the back, that's the way the back five plays.

It's not for England teams.

This change between the back three and the back five is used more in Italian football, just as Roma, who won the Serie A title a few years ago, used this back three system. However, this style of play is rarely used in English football. Ranieri has rarely played this formation since he arrived at Chelsea.

'I think it was probably because in the third round of the Carabao Cup West Ham controlled the midfield. Coach Ranieri may want to use the numerical advantage in midfield to control the game. ”

Morteson made his guess.

But he guessed right. In fact, everyone's attitude towards the game is completely different. For Chen Ping, the English League One has such a big advantage, of course, he wants to have some results in the cup. For the League Cup match, Chen Ping can give up one or two League One games.

But Chelsea is different.

As the No. 1 tycoon in world football this season, the pressure on Ranieri is high. Although Chelsea's results this season have not been very bad, they are currently even overpowering the English giants of Manchester United and Liverpool, and are second only to Arsenal in the league.

But the pressure on Ranieri is still high.

After all, Chelsea spent hundreds of millions of pounds this summer. Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has invested so much money, and he certainly wants not a second, but a title.

Therefore, in the League Cup, a cup with the lowest gold content, it is impossible for Ranieri to invest all the main forces. Therefore, Ranieri rotated a lot of key players for the Premier League game three days later, and of course there were many main players on the field.

The likes of John Terry, Garra, Duff and Claude Makelele have all been Chelsea's main players this season. As for how to fight, Ranieri also thinks a lot. A closer look at the West Ham and Tottenham matches reveals that Carrick is too dominant in midfield. If he rotates like this and still plays with a back four and four midfielders, Ranieri is not sure that Joe Cole and Makelele can control the midfield. Once the midfield loses momentum, then the whole rhythm of the game will be controlled by West Ham.

That's why Ranieri came up with such a formation and was ready to use six midfielders to suppress West Ham.

But when he saw this starting lineup, Chen Ping was overjoyed. Speaking of which, this formation does have the meaning of natural restraint 4-4-2, especially the meaning of natural restraint of traditional English play.

But this is only theoretical.

There is no advanced style of play in the world, and there is no perfect formation. Everything in the world is mutually reinforcing, and there can be no such thing as perfection. The same goes for the style of play. Even if any style of play is all the rage, it will soon be a style of play that restrains him.

The formation of the back three seems to be restrained from the wings, and the play of those wide crosses, but that is the perfect way of playing with a back three. But what kind of team is Chelsea, it is a team that has never played a back three at all, it has always been a four-four-two.

All of a sudden, playing a back three, there will be problems with the players. Not to mention that several centre-backs are not suitable for this style of play at the back three, even the two players on the flanks will have problems. They don't know when to go up and when to step back to protect the rear.

This kind of thing takes a long time to rehearse.

What's more, England's players have never practiced this style of play since they were young, and they are not familiar with the formation of a back three. And this formation also has loopholes, once you are not familiar with it, the ribs of this formation are the biggest loopholes.

Chen Ping instantly felt how to play this game.

ribs.

Originally, defending the ribs is a headache for all teams, because the rib position is the combination of the midfield and the backline, the combination of the full-back and the central defender, and it is the most difficult to defend.

Chelsea came up with such a nondescript formation, and Chen Ping knew that it would be better to play here.

Therefore, Chen Ping immediately brought Leo Corkra back and defended directly as a midfielder. Leo Koke is in the right midfield position and Lomas is in the left midfield position, mainly doing defensive work.

Michael Carrick plays in the middle of midfield.

Then they spread Ribery and Defoe apart, just on either side of Lambert, and changed the formation to a front three. Let Ribery and Defoe operate in the ribs of Chelsea.

"Doodoo-"

"The referee's whistle blew. In the fourth round of the English League Cup, West Ham's home match against Chelsea officially began. Chelsea have invested heavily in the transfer market this summer, certainly in order to win the title. West Ham, on the other hand, have been dominant in League One this season, and promotion is basically a foregone conclusion. Since there is no major problem with promotion, I definitely want to make a difference in the cup. This can be seen from West Ham's main players resting in the league for the League Cup game. ”

'Chelsea were the first to kick off and we look forward to a good game. ”
