Chapter 184: Intimidation?
"Are you just going to foul?"
"Are you just going to be vulgar and use your body to bump and pounce? Damn, you guys are blaspheming football! It's a crime against football! ”
"Your football, it's ugly!"
Without warning, Fabregas's fury erupted.
He glared at Fan Bizhuang angrily, and pointed at the other party's face with his right hand, as if he was questioning and venting.
In fact, throughout the first half, Cesc Fabregas played extremely hot. Arsenal are known for their quick passing and skilful teamwork, and their style of technical flow is unique not only in the Premier League but also in European football. In terms of strength, they are no worse than Villarreal, or even better.
But who knows, Villarreal can be called "doing bad things", except for the offensive in the opening time, most of the time is a turtle defense, which is not only that, but also extremely "cruel" to make the entire midfield into a meat grinder, chaotic, Arsenal's technical flow of play can not play at all, can only be mired in chaos.
As the captain of Arsenal, Cesc Fabregas, who is also good at passing and breaking, is also completely limited, his pass cannot find the right receiving point, and his breakthrough is repeatedly destroyed, even if he can pass a defender, soon the next defender will pounce, either entangle him or bring him down, which makes him difficult on the field.
At this moment, he finally had a great opportunity to score, but he was destroyed by Fan Bizhuang, who returned to defense, with a fierce sliding tackle, and what made him even more unacceptable was that this time the defense was still very clean, which made him feel more disgusting than eating a mosquito.
Thinking that before the game, he was still full of confidence that he wanted to teach the other party a lesson, and Fabregas felt very uncomfortable. Lesson? He and his team are not to say that they are teaching each other a lesson, under the opponent's "meat grinder tactics", it is extremely difficult for them to even make moves and even advance smoothly, they are simply reversed, and the opponent is completely teaching them a lesson!
How could Fabregas, who had always been arrogant, endure it? He was the leader of La Masia's training camp and has had a smooth journey since arriving in England, and now he is the captain of Premier League giants Arsenal, hailed by the media and fans as the most promising midfielder in football for the next decade...... He has countless halos on his body, but he is helpless to take a "traitor" of La Masia, if the opponent does it completely by strength, then he has nothing to say, but ...... Does Villarreal rely on strength?
It's clearly the next three indiscriminate! Clearly means unscrupulous!
The referee didn't blow for a foul, so the game continued, and Cesc Fabregas's outburst came very suddenly, and anyone who looked at it with an angry expression on his face would mistakenly think that he would shoot at Van Bizhuang in the next moment.
Some of the submarine players saw this scene and immediately wanted to rush up to protect their teammates, but Fan Bizhuang reacted more quickly than them. Under the gaze of the fans, he made an extremely exaggerated dodge move, and then looked at the referee who was not far away.
"Sir! He's intimidating me! You still want to hit me! I'm scared! ”
Fan Bizhuang's expression was indifferent, but the words that came out of his mouth almost didn't make the surrounding teammates squirt water directly.
Someone else intimidates you? Still beating you? Hey, I said Fan, are you sure you're not joking, just your virtue of eating everything, just refusing to suffer, who dares to trouble you? Thank goodness you don't bother others.
The referee was also stunned for a moment, obviously the UEFA referee also has a certain understanding of Fan Bizhuang, and the first look in his eyes was disbelief, but there was indeed a commotion here, so he directly whistled to stop the game. He then exchanged views with the linesman before running over and showing Cesc Fabregas a yellow card.
"Pay attention to your words, deeds and actions, although I know a little about that guy, and it is likely that his words are not true, but your behavior is indeed a little out of line, so...... If you're a little more dishonest, I don't think I would mind giving you another yellow card! ”
The referee's "warning" made Fabregas almost not directly crooked his nose, Fan Bizhuang shrugged his shoulders regretfully on the side, and muttered in a low voice: "Actually, I think his actions are worthy of a red card......"
"Be honest, Fan! Don't bother me! Otherwise I wouldn't mind trouble with you! ”
The referee also sternly gave Fan Bizhuang a "warning", and Fan Bizhuang pursed his lips and nodded silently.
'There were some minor conflicts on the pitch, Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas was shown a yellow card, what happened? …… Oh, and through the slow-motion replay, we can see that the Gunslinger Captain seems to have said something unwise to Fan! ”
'It's chaotic, the score is down, Arsenal isn't in a good situation. At this time, Arsenal's players should maintain mental restraint, and the opponent hopes that they are emotionally unstable! Cesc Fabregas's yellow card was a real injustice and as captain he should set a better example for his team-mates! ”
"Van is one of the most famous thorns in European football and Cesc Fabregas wants to get in trouble with him, hehe...... Obviously, his calculations have failed! Van offered him a yellow card in the hope that the Gunners captain would learn to be smarter...... Don't compete with things like Fan, otherwise he will only suffer! ”
"Although Villarreal may not have played so well in the first half, I have to say that I really admire their manager, the lightning sneak attack, the chaos of the pitch and the emotions of the Arsenal players...... Ring after ring, Pellegrini has already dug a pit and is waiting for Arsenal to jump into it by himself! …… Ha, if my guess is true, then Pellegrini is definitely a 'conspirator' in the coaching world! ”
There was another burst of discussion on the commentary bench, and Villarreal's tactical play and various teasing against Arsenal today really made these commentators feel like an eye-opener.
On the field, Fan Bizhuang glanced at Cesc Fabregas lightly, turned around and prepared to leave.
"You're good, and so is your team!" Cesc Fabregas's figure sounded behind him again, and the Spanish midfielder lowered his voice with a glance at the referee who was paying attention to him with his eyes, but there was still a deep sense of anger and unwillingness, "But even if you win the game this way, so what? It's not your strength, it's just a deviation! Hum! ”
"Off-the-beaten-path path?"
Fan Bizhuang's figure paused, turned his head, and suddenly showed a bright smile at Fabregas, "Don't worry, I said that I would teach you a lesson, wait, you won't be disappointed!" ”
Dropping these words, Fan Bizhuang ran straight away, leaving only Fabregas, who looked ugly, gritting his teeth in hatred in place.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
After this small episode, the rhythm of the rest of the first half was obviously slowed down, Arsenal was indeed exhausted by the opponent's "shameless tactics", unable to launch a fierce offensive again, and Villarreal was also happy to be idle, in the stumbling, the time came to the end of the half, the whistle blew, and the two teams entered the halftime break with a score of 1:0.
In the dressing room at half-time, Manuel Pellegrini affirmed and praised the performance of his players in the first half and said that the second half should continue according to the established plan.
In the home team's dressing room, Arsene Wenger is also constantly exhorting his disciples, and Villarreal has been very restrained in their tactical play in the first half, and he is making adjustments at this time, hoping that the second half can change the situation.
"Francisco!"
Cesc Fabregas sat in the corner with a gloomy face, his head bowed, not knowing what he was thinking, until Walcott, who was next to him, nudged him twice in a row before he looked up and saw the manager looking at him.
"First...... Mr! ”
"Don't think too much about it, the opponent's set-up in the first half is obviously based on our tactical characteristics, so ......" Wenger did not directly criticize his captain, but the meaning of his words was also obvious, he shook his head, "In the second half, you have to pass the ball a little bit faster and more resolutely, reduce the breakaway, and increase the range of running, in addition, try to pass the ball into the penalty area, Niklas will respond to you." ”
Bendtner next to him nodded, the Danish talented goalscorer was on the bench in the first half, and in the second half, the manager sent him out as a "killer feature", obviously Arsenal had to make a change, and sending a tall center forward like Bendtner on the field was one of the changes.
Cesc Fabregas looked a little ugly, and the manager's instructions were obviously to change the team's usual tactical play of ground passing, and strengthen the breakthrough and passing of the two flanks, and threaten the opponent's defense with high shots.
Cesc Fabregas is a great passer, but he is better at organising and organising, as well as the ability to pass the ball, and if it's just a wide cross, he's not necessarily more effective than a winger like Theo Walcott. It can be said that the changes Wenger has made to the team are not good things for him.
"Sir, I think our way is fine, the opponent is really ...... It's shameless, but if we speed up the delivery and observe it in advance, we can avoid it...... I'm confident that we ......"
Fabregas wanted to argue a few more words, he was really unwilling, he wanted to beat Van Bizhuang in the way he did best, so that the bastard could learn a good lesson, but now ...... Even if the team's high-flying tactics have achieved good results, but he has not shown his best self, such a result, can he still be considered a winner?
"That's it! Your mission is still to pass and organize, but it's more about creating opportunities for your teammates in the box! ”
Wenger gave him a faint look and directly denied his opinion.
The annoyance in Fabregas's eyes flashed, but in the end he didn't say anything more.
