Chapter Seventy-Five: Tottenham's Two Lineups (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) Subscribe! )
Tottenham this season can be described as ferocious!
They fought on three fronts and showed strong momentum in three different races.
Recently, due to the cup schedule, the league was scheduled to resume on February 27, half a month later.
And in this month and a half, Tottenham need to play two knockout games.
They are Tottenham vs Crystal Palace in the FA Cup and Tottenham vs Fiorentina in the Europa League.
And the day after the Europa League knockout round, they will start playing in the league again, and the schedule can be described as extremely tight.
The FA Cup is in the round of 16, the Europa League is about to enter the knockout stages of the last 16, and the league is in 27 rounds, with 11 rounds to go until the end of the season.
......
When the major leagues are in full swing, almost all eyes of Europe are focused on the Champions League round of 16.
The Champions League round of 16 group is not beautiful for the Premier League.
Both Premier League teams are facing tough opponents.
Chelsea's opponent is the Ligue 1 giants Grand Paris,
Arsenal meet the former Cosmos!
The result of the first round was...
Paris Saint-Germain 2:1 Chelsea!
Arsenal 0:2 Barcelona!
Dynamo Kyiv 1:3 Manchester City!
The Premier League's two Champions League teams suffered a less than ideal start in the first round of the round-robin.
Thankfully, Manchester City have saved some face in the Premier League.
Overall, however, the performance was still not ideal.
Premier League teams, in recent years, the competitiveness of the Champions League has become more and more declining, and the Champions League is about to be monopolized by La Liga, which is a situation that the Premier League or other leagues do not want to see.
Although the Europa League is considered a European competition, its competitiveness and influence cannot be compared with the Champions League, which can be seen from the 12 teams eliminated from the Champions League participating in the Europa League round of 32.
Many people even refer to the Europa League as a 'second-rate club' party!
But it's also a major European event, but it's not as popular as the Champions League.
......
At Tottenham's training ground, Yile is undergoing basic training with the team.
There were a lot of journalists around the training ground, including from other European leagues.
Based on Tottenham's results getting better and better, there is now a trend of league title seeds.
Tottenham have been so good this season, losing just two and drawing one in 26 rounds, winning 23 games.
This puts them at the top of the league table with a whopping 70 points.
It is followed by Leicester City, who have also started to pull off since their last game against Tottenham.
They have won back-to-back games and now have 21 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats, with 65 points and second in the league.
In third place is Arsenal, with 60 points with 19 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses.
The difference between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur is as much as 10 points, which makes Arsenal fans more and more unhappy.
When have they ever been bullied like this by White Lily?
But even so, they have to admit that Tottenham have been a mess this season!
Especially that north London derby, which has become a nightmare for Arsenal fans!
That Chinese is even more demonic!
In the face of such a monster-like midfielder, Arsenal fans can be described as frightened, and many people even encouraged the club to spend a lot of money to win Yile.
Since we can't win him, then we'll buy it.
When the news broke, Tottenham fans were not angry, but sarcastically said: "Do you want to buy Yi with the money you sold to Van Persie?" ”
This made Arsenal fans even angrier.
Tottenham fans, on the other hand, are happy to do so, and they are not afraid of Arsenal.
Can their scarred club spend a lot of money on E-Le?
Now how many giant teams are eyeing this midfield demon star, including the wealthy Paris, the profound Galaxy Battleship, and the Bundesliga giants Bayern.
It's impossible to snatch Yile from them!
And, did we say it was sold?
Yile is not for sale for Tottenham now, the kind that sells the captain and does not sell it!
......
Yi Le was tidying up the shin guards, and at this time, Sun Xingmin sat next to Yi Le.
Yi Le turned his head to look over, and saw that Sun Xingmin's expression was a little depressed.
Since not playing in the Europa League last time, Son Heung-min and Harry. Kane was a little awkward.
At first, 'Toyo' made them feel a sense of urgency, but as his performances in training matches became more and more popular, Torres, who regained his goalscoring form, made Tottenham's two strikers feel like they had been beaten into the cold.
The most intuitive performance is Son Heung-min and Harry. Kane is even more clingy, sticking to Yile all day long, as if to show Yile's belonging.
Actually, Son Heung-min and Harry. Kane was thinking too much.
Torres simply can't replace them because his grade is too big, and Torres has come to Tottenham to add depth to the bench up front.
Villas-Boas suffered enough from the last injury spree, so he doesn't want to face Tottenham's lack of attack.
There is a very tense atmosphere of competition in Tottenham's squad right now.
In addition to Yile being the core of the iron fight, the midfield lineup changes with the different directions of attack and defense.
The forward line is more competitive for posts, and at the same time, it changes with the needs of the midfield and tactics.
The two line-ups in Boas are...
Forward: Fernando. Torres.
Midfielder: Erik. Dell, Yile, Dele. Ali, Thomas. Carroll, Elkeson.
In this lineup, Thomas. Carroll, Dele. Ali, Eric. Dale and Elkeson rotated with Son Heung-min.
It's a lineup that's focused on counter-attacking.
The front court left Torres a certain amount of room to move, and the midfielder began to press, intercept, and steal, relying on Yile's one-kick passing ability to catch the opponent off guard.
This line-up also proved against Fiorentina, and although it was not as impactful as the other, it was solid.
The other lineup is...
Striker: Harry. Kane.
Midfielders: Elkeson, Yile, Dele. Ali, Son Heung-min, Elkeson.
Tottenham's most impactful line-up this time.
A windy midfield and a front trident!
This is also the basis for retaining Tottenham's youthful storm, which is the key to Tottenham's dominance in the Premier League, and Villas-Boas is confident that even against Barcelona's passing line-up, they will not fall into the slightest disadvantage in the midfield battle.
These are Tottenham's current two rotational line-ups, and Villas-Boas could adjust them depending on the situation, but that's pretty much it.
In these two sets of lineups, the core of Yile is unshakable.
He is the pivot of Tottenham's offensive and defensive transitions!
He's Tottenham's conning tower!
Whether it is Villas-Boas, the Tottenham players, and even the Tottenham fans, they are extremely sure of this!
......
Fieldside press area at Tottenham Hotspur's training ground.
Dong Yuming, who had not appeared for a long time, returned to London again.
For half a month, he spent half a month in Spain, responsible for Wu Lei's related reports at RCD Espanyol.
But the situation is not gratifying, compared to Yile's excellent performance, Wu Lei's debut is a little unsatisfactory.
In the past half a month, Wu Lei has played three games for Espanyol, but he has never scored.
The Spanish media also questioned him, and many people said that he was a tool for Espanyol to increase the club's influence in Asia.
These reports made Dong Yuming very uncomfortable, but he was helpless, his grades were not good, and he deserved to be bullied.
After staying in Spain for half a month, and finally waiting for the colleagues to take over the work, Dong Yuming couldn't wait to leave Spain.
On the plane, he bought a kicker's newspaper.
Looking at the report from above that praised Yi Le, this gave him a little comfort in his heart that had been destroyed for half a month.
Sure enough, you have to watch Yile!
Dong Yuming secretly sighed.
Today's Tottenham Hotspur is fighting on three fronts, and the results are all very good, and there is a lot of hope for the title impact.
This makes him look forward to the achievement of the 'Triple Crown'!
If Tottenham can achieve this achievement, Yile's fame will explode.
Of course, Dong Yuming just thought about it.
The league is still important to the Europa League, and according to Dong Yuming's judgment, Tottenham can completely give up the FA Cup and devote himself to the league and the Europa League.
After all, both competitions are in contention for a Champions League spot.
He can't wait to see him at the top level of the European Champions Cup.
