In the 25th minute of the first half, the game was stalemate.

Chen's Southampton side made just two changes, with Yaya Toure replacing Glenn Charles as a central midfielder and David Pluton as left midfield. Chen Zhun's personnel changes in these two places are to play the offensive and defensive speed of the fast team, and use the speed to improve the success rate of counterattacks. Yaya Toure already had the strength of both offense and defense at that time, but he didn't have enough games to participate in, and Chen Zhun also thought twice about making him start and become one of the wonders.

In the 25 minutes of the game, Chen Zhun's special tactical arrangement played some role in the game, Yaya Toure's long legs and speed are really unbeatable, but Yaya Toure's ball combination ability and passing ability at that time were still a lot worse, so there was often no beginning and no end.

Before the game, Chen Zhun also got a good news, the former main midfielder, Anders Svensson, who was responsible for the team's appearance, had returned from injury and was arranged by Chen Zhun to participate in the youth team to find game status and reserve physical fitness. In this case, except for Chris Baird, who is injured, the rest of the players are healthy. Southampton is only now really strong, and even a little over-squad. All Chen has to do is use these coveted players to accomplish their pre-season goals during the most important season. After the last defeat to Northampton, Tan was worried that he would be called in by chairman Rupert Lowe to talk, but it was clear that Chen had overthought it and the board had no reaction to the matter. Chen Zhun thought about it, and he hadn't seen that old man for a long time.

Winning a place in the European competition is the only goal that Chen Zhun has set in his heart for this season of catching ducks on the shelves. Chen Zhun has already set his sights on next season. But next season is a very distant thing, there are a lot of variables during this period, and the club is now in a stormy stage, and there is a situation where there is a change of ownership, and it is a question of whether you are here after the change of ownership. Thinking about what he had just imagined, Chen Zhun also shook his head with a wry smile.

Halfway through the season, the players have reached the greatest tacit understanding and the best competitive condition. They have also gained a level of confidence and tenacity that they have not had in previous seasons. Although the ups and downs of the game still occur from time to time, the words and spirit of the manager have made the players feel an unprecedented self-confidence, and it is this confidence that pushes Southampton forward step by step. Along the way, you will fall, you will fall, you will get frustrated, you will give up. But when I thought about the words of the manager, I felt a sense of confidence, and I struggled to get up and continue walking.

The scene continued to be stalemate, but the advantage and passivity were obvious, and the Southampton team, which was playing away, was unexpectedly anti-away from the beginning of the game, firmly occupying the initiative on the field. The new players have also adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League game and performed comfortably on the field.

Chen Zhun did not dare to slack off on the sidelines, there are countless such situations this season, but it is often not the Southampton team that has the last laugh, the sudden collapse and collective distraction have been plaguing the Southampton team. Chen Zhun also didn't want this kind of rhythm of the game, his team was not suitable for the tactics of possession play, which sometimes hurt the team. Chen Zhunyi will direct the game with a high-decibel voice on the sidelines, and he hopes to stimulate the spirit of the players at all times in this way, so that he can maintain his attention on the field.

Near the center circle, Arteta controlled the ball, and after two official matches, Arteta quickly integrated into the team and fully adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League, which made Chen Zhun really surprised and admired. For a wanderer like him, it seems that quickly adapting to the rhythm of a country's game is a skill that must be learned, and it is not a difficult task. What's more, Arteta also used to play in the Scottish Premiership.

Arteta saw that there were not many opportunities to play the ball in front of him, and the two wide players were also surrounded by Newcastle United defenders, so he had to look for short passes. Arteta passed to Delap, who came up next to him, and after taking a few steps forward, Delap continued to pass the ball to Yaya Toure. Yaya Toure got the ball and turned around and took big strides forward to dribble the ball, as if the Newcastle United players knew that Yaya Toure would definitely continue to choose his own breakthrough and then concede the ball as he did just now. So no one stepped forward to interfere, but they all stood in their own positions and waited for Yaya Toure to throw herself into the net. Yaya Toure smiled when he saw this, and he admired the manager even more. He remembers that the head coach told him before the game that he would bring the ball to the penalty area in the first half, and it was best to bring it away, so that he could rest assured that the players would not blame him. At that time, Yaya Toure didn't know what kind of medicine the manager was buying in his gourd. Now he understands thoroughly and paralyzes his opponent. The manager then went on to tell him to take a bold long-range shot when the Newcastle United players were not pressing.

Now this is the situation, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Yaya Toure certainly has to seize this opportunity!

There was an open field ahead, and the view couldn't be more vast. Although Yaya Toure is tall, his agility is not bad at all, and his agility is vividly displayed in him. Yaya Toure stretched his body in the run, his right foot was fully lifted, and his foot comfortably touched the rolling ball, which used the force to draw a lightning bolt in the air and flew towards the door of Newcastle United!

Given's strength was all his strength to block the powerful long-range shot, but an elf flashed out of the crowd, tossing and turning in front of the ball, and with a gentle push of the arch of his foot, the ball went into the empty goal! No offside!

Kevin Phillips! Astute smell in front of the door!

Yaya Toure, who was lost a second ago, shook his arms high! Ran in front of Big Brother to celebrate!

Chen Zhun didn't have a lot of excitement, just clapped his hands with Reed, and then did it to the coach's seat, recording something.

In the end, Newcastle United paid the price for their conservatism, with Crouch, who had replaced Kevin Phillips, also scoring a goal as Southampton thrashed Newcastle United 2-0 to remain sixth in the table, while first-placed Chelsea were already a surprise 10 points ahead of Arsenal.

Chen Zhun looked at the excited Southampton fans in the stands, but his heart remembered the upcoming two three-week games against Liverpool.

The journey has just begun.
