Arsene Wenger's start was unusual, and although it was unexpected, it was a good idea.

That's right, Arsene Wenger's starting formation became 4231.

When any of the midfielders of Xiaofa's partner could not support the backbone of the midfield, the professor had to change his routine and increase the number of midfielders in order to gain an advantage in the midfield.

With Henry there, one less point of contact in the front court is actually not a big problem, and Henry has never had a stable partner, which is also an important reason for forcing Wenger to make a choice.

In this way, the strength of the midfield has gone up, and there is a fight in the face of any team, how can Wenger continue to insist on his set of 442!

In today's game, Quaresma started as a left winger, Pire was pressed on the bench by Arsene Wenger, Ljungberg started on the right, and Xiaofa in the middle, behind Xiaofa Flamini and Gilberto Silva were all in the lineup, which is almost the strongest lineup that Arsenal can put out now.

Quaresma appeared on the left flank, not because Pire was injured, but because Piree didn't have much to do with Ferreira.

The strongest defensive full-back is not for fun, the offensive side is not in the stream, and Ferreira, who points all his skill points on defense, is definitely one of the best among all fullbacks in world football if he has a single round of defensive ability.

Pires played Ferreira several times, but he was guarded against his temper, and once doubted whether he was no longer suitable to continue playing as a winger, and if Pireir was still allowed to face Ferreira today, it is estimated that the outcome would not change much.

And letting Quaresma start is different, even if Ferreira is strong defensively, it is difficult to completely prevent Quaresma, Quaresma can also create a threat.

The point is that Arsenal can also try the whirlwind mode on the basis of flying on both wings to a certain extent, and Chelsea in front of them is not the best litmus test!

If even Chelsea can tackle this fast-break tactic, who else can stop it?

At the very least, Quaresma believes that today's game will never be the same as the first leg, and Arsenal will not be passive at all.

The players of both teams were already in their respective halves, and a fierce battle was about to break out.

Quaresma has always set his sights on Ferreira, a name that has been heard like thunder, but Quaresma has not yet had a chance to play against him on the field, and this time, he can finally get what he wants.

So, let yourself see today just how capable this Porto veteran is.

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and from this moment on, the game also directly entered the white-hot stage, and there was no need to adapt and test at all, just bayonet to bayonet.

Chelsea does not stick to the ball in the middle, quickly distribute the ball to the wing, the side attack has always been Chelsea's big killer, Mourinho will not give up at any time, and Mourinho also has a trace of expectation, if Chelsea's wing attack plays well, it is even possible to suppress Arsenal's wing, so that Quaresma They can't attack.

It's just that Mourinho's wishful thinking doesn't seem to have much chance of success.

If nothing else, do you think Quaresma looks like a player who will be completely dragged down by the defense?

For a player who is used to defending with his eyes and sprinting, this is not a problem at all.

Besides, Arsene Wenger doesn't intend to play on the flanks, which is not Wenger's style.

With Quaresma's extremely conflicted players, Arsene Wenger is not an advocate of beautiful football if he still wants to win on the flanks.

It's a big deal!

Who's afraid of whom?

In the last game against Manchester United, Arsenal's wings did not fall into the disadvantage, and Chelsea's wings may not be much better than Manchester United.

It is still unknown who will kill the deer!

When the two teams coincidentally pressed the heavy bet on the side, the trend of the game gradually became simple and blurred, and many people even felt that this scene seemed familiar.

Isn't this the just concluded world war between Manchester United and Arsenal on the wing?

If it is described in words, then the fierce scene of the game looks like this:

Ljungberg won the ball on the right, broke through Bridge's defense and pushed it to the middle, Henry grabbed the point but didn't score;

Robben broke through on the right, shook off Quaresma and cut inside towards the middle, barely got to his feet under pressure from Ashley Cole and shot wide;

Quaresma asked for the ball on the left, shook off Robben with a look, and then finally broke through in the face of Ferreira, but was tackled by Terry, who was making up the defense;

Joe Cole received in the middle, took the ball and returned to the side to break through along the sideline, and the bottom line crossed, Drogba grabbed the point and almost broke the Arsenal goal;

......

As if discussing how to allocate the camera time, the four wide attacking players each took the ball at a time and lined up to appear!

This situation made the fans who watched the game addicted, and their breathing had to adjust the rhythm, otherwise their breathing would be disordered.

It's always exciting to be evenly matched, but if the result is evenly matched, then I'm afraid not everyone will be happy, at least not for Arsenal.

Arsenal are the side behind in the table and they need to catch up with Chelsea, and a draw with Chelsea would be a loss of the best chance to catch up, with no initiative to speak of.

Therefore, Wenger is not willing to spend it with Chelsea like this, maybe Mourinho is secretly laughing at this time!

As a result, Arsene Wenger walked to the sidelines and made a few veiled gestures to the players on the pitch.

Quaresma nodded and responded, saying that he had received it, and that so did Xiaofa, which was Wenger's instructions to the two of them.

Quaresma is really feeling the pressure right now, unlike most of the full-backs he's faced before, Ferreira is completely focused on defending, his defensive skills and defensive awareness are excellent, and Quaresma's realistic feints sometimes can't shake Ferreira's center of gravity, and sometimes he is dragged there, making Quaresma very uncomfortable.

And now Wenger's instructions to Quaresma are to let Xiaofa deal with Quaresma, create chaos, and create more opportunities for Quaresma.

Quaresma doesn't go too far and goes his own way, so why choose the most laborious one, when there is a better way?

Therefore, Quaresma's position in the attack gradually shifted to the ribs, and Xiaofa, who should have been in the middle, pulled to the side and stood on the left side of Quaresma, which was equivalent to completing a change.

Then, Xiaofa received a pass from Ashley Cole on the touchline, a position that made Chelsea a little uncomfortable.
