Chapter 176: The helper doesn't help the guest

Match day, press conference. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the guys who went to the meeting alone, the reporters were excited and a little nervous, as if it was not a pre-match press conference, but a debate.

In fact, after a big victory, public opinion has turned, and in some sample surveys, Youmo has received more than 80% of the support, and Arsenal's attention has begun to climb all the way, and the ratings have reached new highs.

However, for the media, the 21-year-old head coach is really incredible, not to mention that he is still the youngest Mr. Ballon d'Or in history, and there are a lot of topics on his body, and any opportunity to interview him in person cannot be missed.

So as in the previous two times, as soon as they came up, someone took the lead in attacking.

'Arsenal are on good momentum under your leadership, if it continues like this, will Arsene Wenger continue as manager when he returns?'

Such a question is obviously suspected of sowing discord, but in the eyes of those who are interested, it is indeed possible. Especially when comparing from the perspective of a player, the all-round comparison will bring a very strong personal preference, and the longer it passes, the more obvious it becomes.

When Arsene Wenger returns from illness, will the transfer of power be so smooth?

What about the relationship between the two?

Will it be the same as it always has?

"Yes, it's an extraordinary period, and it will last until the end of the season at most."

You Mo's answer was a bit evasive, but at the moment he had only been in office for a week, and his two consecutive wins could only be said to be a good start, and it was far from any championship, and it was indeed too early to discuss the transfer of power.

The reporters knew this, and after receiving an affirmative answer, they did not chase after it, and soon some people stood up and started a new topic.

'Newcastle United's home record is quite good, will Arsenal continue with their previous tactics and beat their opponents with quick counter-attacks?'

This kind of question is obviously digging a hole, and if answered truthfully, it will expose the tactical play in advance; If you do the opposite, you will leave people in control and give people the impression that they are doing the opposite.

The old people usually talk about it left and right, or simply solve the problem with "no comment", and only rookies will be entangled in the above choices.

What about Yumo?

"Arsenal have been committed to beautiful football for five years and there is no shortage of creativity in our game, but there is a lack of discipline. I learned something from Mr. Otto Rehhagel and took the opportunity to put it into practice. ”

As soon as the words fell, the audience was in an uproar.

These words really reflect Lao Jianghu's skills, which can be called a classic case of dealing with the media, and the names mentioned in them perfectly answer all questions, so that everyone present has a feeling of enlightenment.

No wonder the current Arsenal team feels so strange, it turns out that he used Kaiserslautern's plug-and-play to solve the team's old problem of attacking strong and weak defensively!

Rehhagel vs Arsene Wenger?

It's really hard to tell the difference, and the two styles are very different, and the cards are far from each other.

But what happens if you can combine the strengths of the two and add the strength of Arsenal's hand?

Will there be a repeat of the horrible ability to control the scene from the previous game?

But how old is he?

Did you aim for a head coach at the beginning of your career?

There are a lot of questions, they are very big, and soon some people can't bear it.

"With all due respect, did you start experimenting with tactical theory while you were in Germany?"

For this kind of question full of pursuit, You Mo's smile is very shallow, but very real.

"A player who doesn't want to be a manager is not a good player."

……

Just after 3pm, Arsenal's away game against Newcastle kicked off, and Youmo's starting line-up was not unexpected.

Rosicky replaces Bergkamp, Parlour replaces Ljungberg and Kevin Ashley replaces Grimandi, all three of which are normal rotations, and there is no suspense at the back.

Although three consecutive strong conversations in eight days can be a hellish test, Arsenal's tactical strategy in the previous two games has been a bit conservative, the scene is not open enough, and the physical exertion is not exaggerated.

As a result, Newcastle's opening onslaught looked like a huge momentum, but the effect was mediocre, and fifteen minutes passed in a flash, and the score was thunderous.

However, compared to the first two opponents, the Magpies are very clear about their self-positioning, they don't think they can win the opponent by attacking strongly, and they don't expect the opponent to let go of their hands and feet to fight with them. After failing to succeed in the opening onslaught, the formation immediately retracted and took the initiative to slow down the tempo.

This kind of free-flowing tactical literacy is quite the style of an Italian team, and it is a bit of an outlier in the Premier League, which likes to play hard, and the reason for this is that Gullit, one of the three musketeers, has contributed a lot.

The Dutchman's shining career was spent in Serie A, where he was most exposed to the tactical strategy of chain-defending. This game against Arsenal was not a do-or-die affair for Newcastle and a draw was a completely acceptable result. Considering that their opponents' two consecutive victories were fatal with razor-sharp counter-attacks, they did not pin their hopes on attack, but instead tried to stabilize their backs as much as possible and be invincible first.

This tactical strategy may seem conservative, but it's the right thing to do.

Now that your opponent's defense has improved dramatically and your concentration is better than before, why bumper into a monolith?

Since the opponent is in the fatigue period of continuous fighting, why not leave the victory to the last 30 minutes of the game?

Since the opponent is so magical, it is better to be patient!

……

"Yo, it's raining!"

In the 28th minute of the slow-paced game, a rather idle Lehmann shouted.

In the face of the unenterprising Newcastle players, the Arsenal players are not in a hurry to exert their strength.

After all, the fatigue caused by continuous vicious battles cannot be ignored, and it is human nature to be slow to enter the state. After two consecutive victories, many people's desire to win began to decline, and when their opponents took the initiative to slow down their pace and play Tai Chi, they also breathed a sigh of relief and began to organize attacks unhurriedly.

As the head coach, You Mo said nothing about it.

He knows very well that players are human beings, not machines, and continuous pressure will only lead to more and more people getting bored, or running away, or rebellious, and a few guys will even have a nervous breakdown under high pressure.

Only with tension and relaxation can he maintain a calm mind and face difficulties positively, so he did not take any action after the pace of the game slowed down significantly, and walked the court with words and deeds, thinking about life.

At this moment, he heard that Lyman was idle and painful, and he picked up the conversation quite leisurely.

"yes, hurry up and finish the kick and go home to collect your clothes."

As soon as the words fell, there was a cough.

Honestly, it's the atmosphere that Arsenal players are familiar with. In the past week or so, although the atmosphere in the locker room is high-spirited, it is inevitable that it will be a little tiring after a long time.

After all, they are all old rivers and lakes, and there are not a few champions who have soft hands, how can they be as tireless as they were when they first hit the road.

Just like an old driver driving, blindly punching and slamming is too boring, and only by mastering the rhythm can you fully feel the fun brought by the process.

Considering that the new officials need to perform well in the inauguration stage, they have to tense their nerves even if they feel tired, and they have to brace themselves to face one fierce battle after another.

It's a pity that most of them are not iron men, and even Yumo admits that it is difficult to maintain 90 minutes of concentration in defense, and they are not exempt from vulgarity, and the pace of the game is slow, and there are not a few who take the opportunity to desert.

Now that I finally heard the voice I hadn't heard for a long time, I couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Haha, I thought your sense of humor was confiscated by Mr. Wenger!" Lyman is the most agitated one, for unknown reasons.

"yes, I thought there wouldn't be that atmosphere anymore!" Pire was also excited, and even his pace was much easier.

"Has it always been like this before?" Campbell was so surprised that he turned to Chloe Toure to confirm.

"Of course!" Chloe Toure held his head high, very proud.

"Well, what a natural balance-breaker......." Vieira sighed, but it took a lot of effort to hold back a laugh.

"Hurry up, don't give your opponent a chance to breathe!" Parol apparently took it seriously, and shouted vigorously.

"......." Henry and Rosicky stared at each other and did not speak.

Yumo also sighed, a little nostalgic for the living treasures of Ashliel and Wiltord.

"Well, whether you win or lose this game, you will have a three-day holiday after playing!"

.......

It is unprecedented to announce such a thing in the middle of the game, and to add the premise of "win or lose" in front of it.

If nothing else, this audacity is worth a lot of praise.

Of course, the trust contained in this can be felt by everyone, and for consequentialist competitive sports, it is a typical success or defeat.

If you win, it's easy to say, if you lose, the guy who makes this kind of decision will inevitably be criticized!

Even if the players kept it a secret, the guys who were just separated by a guardrail would not let go of such a shocking show. In fact, as soon as his words fell, the stands behind him began to hum, and after a while, the boos began to greet him.

Have you won a lot of support for yourself with a big victory, and in the blink of an eye, you will bet all on it as a bet?

Is this what a winner in life should do?

Will there be no money to lose?

In the 41st minute of the first half, Arsenal won a set-piece opportunity on the left side of the field, and the ball was only about 22 meters from the goal, which was quite good.

Pire stood in front of the ball and was in high spirits.

In the past ten minutes, although the score has not been rewritten, the advantage of the field is very obvious, the Arsenal players not only relaxed their mentality, but also became much more relaxed, with all kinds of tacit cooperation, the situation is under control. Compared to them, the Newcastle soldiers, who were bent on fighting a war of attrition, were still at ease, but as time went by, they gradually became struggling to the left and right, and they were repeatedly in front of goal.

When the initiative is not in the hands, it is easy to change from offense to defense, and it is difficult to turn from defense to offense. Gullit did not take the liberty to adjust his tactics, but still made up his mind to defend the counterattack steadily, pinning his hopes on the final 30 minutes of the game.

Of course, with Alan Shearer in the squad, Newcastle's counter-attack is still very threatening, even against a team of the giants, the ability to score goals should not be underestimated.

It's a pity that it hit the iron plate.

As in the previous two games, the Arsenal players were in no hurry to rewrite the scoreline when the situation prevailed, and this set-piece opportunity was the result of Thierry Henry's personal breakthrough on a quick counter-attack, for which the opposition paid a yellow card.

Due to the threatening position, the set-piece was sent to the front wall for a long time, and Pire was not in a hurry, squinting slightly and looking at the opponents, looking very enjoyable.

As he was looking, a familiar voice came from behind him.

The lazy taste is as good as ever.

"Left or right, worried."

Upon hearing this, Piret smiled after a moment's pause.

With Yumo's ability to fight in the air and in chaos, this kind of opportunity must of course stay in the forbidden area. Since the set-piece is located on the left rib, most of the points of the pass are on the right side of the penalty area or the far post, and if you grab the point, you have to go to the right side and wait for the opportunity.

But this thing is now playing at left-back, and he shouldn't go to the right side to join in the fun, whether it is offensive or defensive. Not to mention anything else, if this most basic tactical discipline can be broken at will, it will have a very far-reaching negative impact on the team, and it is a typical gain that outweighs the loss.

"Looks like I'm going to have to think differently?"

Piret did the same, and replied lazily.

"Well, good idea."

As soon as the words fell, he walked slowly to the front of the human wall, and it seemed that the guy who was going to pick up the leak in the forbidden area suddenly took a step sideways to the left, and then, the whole person rushed to the bottom line like an arrow from the string!

The exaggerated starting speed made everyone stunned, not to mention that they were not mentally prepared, and even if they did, they couldn't keep up!

Suffer!

Sure enough, the ball followed suit, and after meeting at the baseline, a standard inverted triangle pass passed through the small space between the wall and the goalkeeper, and went straight to the middle!

Henry calmly accepted the gift, and it was done overnight!

1:0!

.......

After the scoreline was rewritten, the first half was running out, and St James' Park was greeted with more and more rain and a half-time whistle as expected.

Conceding goals is not a surprise, set-piece scoring is a common occurrence for Arsenal, and the Newers, in terms of quality, should not be so angry.

But there is no way, You Mo's ability to pull hatred is eaten by all ages, men and women are not taboo, especially the lazy appearance is even more hateful, making people unable to control the desire to slap their faces.

It's a pity that no matter how loud the boos are, they can't make the Arsenal players angry, on the contrary, they have a sense of common hatred and sympathy for the opponent.

In other words, they're a little too relaxed now, and the old problems have returned.

Actually, you can't blame it.

Such a relaxed process and result are easy to make people feel that it is not difficult, coupled with the temptation of the three-day holiday beckoning not far away, the body is a little tired, and it is inevitable that I will look down on the opponent in my heart.

"It's raining heavily, and it's too late to go back and collect clothes."

After pushing the door in, You Mo took off his jersey and wrung it into the water. The voice was somewhat casual, not like the tone of a manager.

The content was the same, quite a few people laughed, and only a few guys fell into deep thought.

"In our country, when you come to the door as a guest, you will be called 'God stays a guest', and if you leave again after one night, it will embarrass the host."

You Mo's voice was eloquent, and the room full of people listening to it were stunned.

Faintly, an inexplicable atmosphere surged up, and the numbness and comfort of winning the game quietly slipped away, and everyone's eyes widened, lest they miss every word.

"In other words, God is helping the master now, not the guest."

"If you don't put in some real effort, you will leave regrets when you leave."
