Chapter 711: The front waist is back
Chapter 711 The front waist is placed in the back
Chelsea's tactics put City in an attacking woe for a while.
And in the 21st minute, Chelsea had a very good chance to counter-attack!!
Kante !! Pretty!!!!!!!! ”
Amid the exclamations of the commentators and the boos of the fans, N'Golo Kante made a precise tackle at Milner's feet!
N'Golo Kante then launched a counter-attack!!
He kicked the ball straight forward with a long pass!!
This pass made the Manchester City fans exclaim!!
A direct pass found Demba Ba, who was rushing forward!
Demba Ba stretches his long legs, hooks the ball back, and then flicks the outside of his right foot to the side!
'Frank Lampard!!!!!
A blue figure rushed into the Manchester City penalty area!!
Frank Lampard led the ball into the box and a simple Chelsea counter-attack with a long ball actually created a one-on-one chance for him to face the goalkeeper!!
"Single Knife !!!"
Duan Xuan exclaimed, and the stands of the Etihad Stadium suddenly burst into deafening boos!
Gao Bo's muscles tightened!
He's worried about that!!
As long as you give the other party a chance, you may put yourself to death!!
Oblak rushed out at once!
The young Manchester City goalkeeper faces the old spicy Frank Lampard!
Lampard looked at Oblak and he didn't take too much of the young goalkeeper who had replaced his international team-mate Hart.
The goalkeeper is a very experienced position after all, and Oblak's immature face has no deterrent effect.
However, his skills are still excellent, and his psychological quality is also good.
Frank Lampard paid the price for his dismissiveness when he failed to get Oblak to react and he fell to the back of the pack!
Oblak is already closing in front of him!!
Frank Lampard struck a shot into Oblak's crotch, only for Oblak to block his thigh and then pick the ball into his arms!
Oblak !! He won a head-to-head conversation with Frank Lampard!! ”
"Pretty!! Oblak denied a goal from Chelsea!!!! ”
The commentators praised Oblak's play!
And Frank Lampard, who lost this single knife, also hugged his head in frustration.
It wasn't easy for Chelsea to get that opportunity.
On the sidelines, Gao Bo didn't react, but Mourinho was furious.
He was unhappy with Frank Lampard's handling of the one-on-one effort, and the Portuguese kept his arm up and turned back to sit back in the dugout, still saying something that he knew wasn't a good thing to say.
......
It was a dangerous moment that made him realise that he had to do something about Chelsea's approach.
He called Kompany.
"Add long passes and pass the ball out when it's too tight!!"
Now Manchester City can only give up part of the possession to keep their backfield from being in danger for a long time.
Gao Bo looked at the angry Mourinho not far away.
He really didn't expect Mourinho to make such a change in this game.
Gao Bo knows this set of tactics best at Chelsea now - in this time and space, Gao Bo is the first person to play this tactic.
So, of course, he knows where the weaknesses of this set of tactics are.
However, if he wants to make adjustments, he will need a half-time break.
.......
In the first half, Chelsea didn't get much of a chance because Mourinho is only useful without the ball.
Gao Bo's tactical system during the Luton period was divided into two states: with the ball and without the ball, and in the state with the ball, Luton's offensive advancement was also quite sharp.
However, Mourinho only learned the tactics without the ball, and he improved and sublimated this set of tactics, but if the ball is returned to the feet of Chelsea, Chelsea's 4321 Christmas tree formation is actually not too powerful when attacking in positional battles.
In general, they still rely on counterattacks.
In the first half, Manchester City gradually got more chances.
However, neither side was able to achieve anything in the first half.
Forty-five minutes passed quickly, and the first half was over.
.....
At half-time, when the players returned to the locker room, Gao Bo was already waiting for them in the locker room.
"In the second half in attack, we have to make some adjustments!"
Gao Bo doesn't talk much nonsense, since Mourinho has made a move, he naturally wants to see the move.
"We need to strengthen the role of the long passer, they have a dense formation, but then there are more opportunities on the weak side! Pull the formation apart and we'll dispatch them with long passes! ”
"The heart of the second half was ... Chris!! ”
Gao Bo looked at Eriksen, and the other players also looked at Eriksen.
The Dane was a bit of a surprise, but Gao Bo didn't have time to surprise the players any longer.
"In the second half, Chris came on and replaced James!!"
Gao Bo prepares to replace Milner.
"Boss, if that's the case, which position am I going to play?"
Eriksen raised his doubts, indeed, Manchester City's current formation is 4231, and if you want to replace Milner, that is, to remove a defensive midfielder, Erik's position is generally to play forward or right attacking midfielder, but these two positions, now on the field, Eriksen squeezed in, it may seem too crowded.
And if Milner is replaced, Fernandinho will be the only one in the midfield, so will the coverage be too small?
Eriksen's doubts are naturally the doubts of other players.
Gao Bo was quick to explain the problem.
"You go up and kick the back, Chris!!"
Back waist?
Eriksen was stunned, this position is really a new challenge, although he is a midfielder, but in fact, his defense is not very good.
Could it be that the manager thinks he has a talent for defending?
Erikson thought to himself.
"But I don't need you to defend much, you just need to stand up while you're defending!"
Gao Bo seemed to know what was going on in Erikson's mind.
"When you come on the pitch, if you come into a crazy push like the first half, you're our first point! You have to run out of space and then send the ball to the feet of the players in the front court with a long pass!! ”
Gao Bo said.
Manchester City's players are in sight!
Gao Bo's changes are undoubtedly for Chelsea.
Since the opponent uses a dense formation to press forward, the appropriate long ball must be played.
In the first half, Manchester City actually tried to pass long passes, but due to the poor footwork of several players in the backfield, the long passes have not been passed too well, and several offensive opportunities have been wasted.
If it's Eriksen?
The players looked at Eriksen.
This is the best player for Man City's long pass!
"Got it?"
"Got it! Chief!!! ”
Eriksen was very excited because he was thinking more.
If he can get a foothold in the midfield and make the most of his long passing skills in this game, does that mean... He doesn't actually have to compete with Kaka for the position of midfielder?
Erikson had a good idea.
In fact, Gao Bo had the idea of letting Eriksen play in the back for a long time, and this game was an opportunity.
The midfielder is in the back, and this is a tactical change that has been around for several years.
If Eriksen can make a name for himself in the midfield position, there can be more variation in City's tactics.
