"John, what do you think Villarreal should do in the second half?"

Not wanting to hear Rijkaard's covetousness for his 'players', Lineker quickly interrupted the topic and diverted the topic.

"It's still going back to square one, the two attacking teams, the midfield, and especially their control of the middle circle. In the second half, Villarreal had to tighten their control in midfield and Robert should be on the pitch. ”

Mortensen is still sticking to his previous belief that the midfield is fundamental, while he is looking forward to Manuel Pellegrini's substitution.

"Well, remove a striker, add a midfielder, find a way to restrain Hao and the first four guys, as they did in the first fifteen minutes of the first half, this is the law of winning that can be seen."

Rijkaard agreed with Mortensen's opinion and gave a clear path, but in the end he couldn't help but shake his head and frown, "As for whether this restraint can be formed, I don't have much hope, because the state of the Arsenal players has come out."

Judging from the final trend of the first half, Arsenal is obviously still unsatisfied, in the second half, their attack is bound to be more fierce than the first half, will set off a big wave of attack.

Coach Arsene Wenger has mastered the initiative, Arsenal's own attack is played, and the formation of 4141 is too aggressive and more active. In this game, on Arsenal's side, Villarreal is afraid that there will be no way to control them.

Villarreal could try to overpower Arsenal with their own attack, perhaps a more practical approach. ”

Apparently in this game, Rijkaard was already defensively and gave up on Villarreal. In the first half, if it weren't for Arsenal's failure to take advantage of a few chances, the score would have changed a long time ago. Villarreal's lack of attacking action in the second half hour of the second half also increased the pressure on their defence.

Rijkaard's advice to the Villarreal team is that his own attack can be played well in order to force Arsenal's offensive line to retreat, and more importantly, to keep Xiang Hao busy in the back position, which is the key.

"Villarreal hasn't changed much, and Frank's suggestion is the only thing they can do."

Lineker nodded, agreeing with Rijkaard's suggestion.

Motensen is the same, "The initiative in this game has reached the feet of Arsenal, and Villarreal can only do their best now to force Arsenal to change. ”

As the three analyzed, in the dressing room, Wenger did not emphasize more details, but emphasized that Van Persie, Walcott, and Nasri became the 'hardest hit areas'.

In the away dressing room, Pellegrini was really dissatisfied with his team's unthreatening state in the second half of the hour, emphasizing that the players should play their own attacks, not blindly defensive, and seize the initiative at their home stadium.

After a fifteen-minute break, Manuel Pellegrini also brought on Pire at half-time to remove Llorente.

"Whew, it's still coming up."

Seeing Pi Lei on the field, Xiang Hao sighed secretly. In fact, he doesn't want to play against Arsenal's former exploits at the level of Thierry Henry and Pire, so to speak, he grew up watching them play.

Fighting with them, Xiang Hao always felt a little awkward and had a kind of pimple.

However, Xiang Hao also understands that football is football, and personal feelings cannot be brought to the field. Trying to dry his emotions, Xiang Hao returned his attention to the court and waited for the Norwegian referee's whistle.

"Toot!" Obrebo didn't have to wait long, with Pire on the pitch less than 10 seconds before the whistle blew and the second half resumed.

Arsenal launched the first wave of attacks, Van Persie handed the ball to Cesc Fabregas, and the Spaniard sent the ball to Xiang Hao's feet as soon as possible, and ran forward himself.

At this time, the other players of Arsenal also quickly entered their respective positions, and the whole formation was spread out.

Xiang Hao originally planned to distribute the ball to Nasri's feet, but unfortunately, before he could kick out, a figure had already appeared in front of his eyes - Pire!

Pire was replaced on the field, and he played the position of the front midfield, which was precisely a formal counterpoint to Xiang Hao's position.

When Arsenal hadn't kicked off yet, he already knew that the ball had passed at Xiang Hao's feet and had already prepared.

When Xiang Hao was about to take a step and get up, Pire had already stopped in front of him, not rushing to steal, but forcing Xiang Hao to form a position suppression.

It's absolutely no problem to get past Pire, but it takes a little effort, Xiang Hao swept his eyes and noticed that Villarreal's players were staring here, and then imagining the performance when he scored the goal, there was no chance.

There was still time, Xiang Hao was not impatient, and after dividing the ball again, he handed it to Toure. He doesn't want to fight with Villarreal right now.

A goal away from home, a draw, there is no need to be so anxious, it is Villarreal who should be in a hurry. A goal has already been scored, and in this game, their desire to win is definitely stronger than before.

Taking advantage of the other party's thoughts, Xiang Hao planned to fully mobilize the other party's running, like an angler pulling a fish before closing the rod, teasing them and consuming their patience and physical strength.

Not as Rijkaard expected, Arsenal opened the attack very open, trying to destroy Villarreal in one fell swoop.

Gradually, Xiang Hao's style was transmitted to all the Arsenal players on the field.

As for why, it's very simple, because now I want to be not only an interception-type midfielder, but his control gives him enough ability to act as a playmaker-type midfielder.

The rhythm of offense and defense is controlled by him.

What he wants to do is to be the waist king who controls everything on the court!

The ball is here in Xiang Hao, and it will always stay for a while, Xiang Hao will either distribute the ball to the defender, or send the ball to the side, reducing the straight pass.

At the same time, Xiang Hao also reduced his own back insertion, using the connection between Denilson and himself, and through his own running, let Denilson 'keep to himself'.

Xiang Hao's engine slows down, and the operation of the entire Arsenal team will inevitably slow down.

However, the slowdown does not mean that Arsenal have given up control of the tempo on the pitch. In fact, Xiang Hao used this kind of 'slow' pass to stomp the initiative of the game under his feet, and there were also many threatening attacks.

Cesc Fabregas's final pass, Walcott's pace, Nasri's dexterity, Van Persie's movement..., all the convergence of light was enough to give Villarreal a fatal blow.

If it weren't for the Villarreal players fighting hard and not wanting to be eliminated at home and in the Champions League, the current score would not have been 1-1.

Xiang Hao's 'slow' rhythm really consumes the offensive energy and fighting spirit of the Villarreal people, and what is really wasted is their time and opportunity.

The Villarreal players pounced fiercely, trying to get up to speed, rushing the pace of the game and playing their own attacks.

But time and time again, in Arsenal's orderly passes, the Villarreal players found that their rushing was useless.

The opponent's defense line has always been solid, and they didn't give them a chance at all, but their attack was still so sharp, and the last pass could go straight to their goal. Like the sword of Damocles, always hanging over their heads.

The current Arsenal seems to have reached another realm, just like a master of ancient martial arts, who does not need to play with moves, and directly suppresses it with aura.

That's what Arsenal are doing now, using passes, using the ball as arrows, drawing lines across the pitch, weaving together a powerful netting to pinch Villarreal and know to 'strangle' them.

Pellegrini is messed up! It's a complete mess!

Watching his players on the field, running up and down uselessly, Pellegrini knew that he had no tactics left.

"Barça, Barça's style?!" Rijkaard exclaimed.

"Nope."

Mortenson interrupted Rijkaard's 'hysteria' and looked at Xiang Hao, "That's Hao's control!" ”

Ecstasy, anticipation...

Mortensen's eyes lit up, staring at the constantly transmitting figure, "Barcelona's style is more forward, although their rhythm is controlled at Xavi's feet, but Messi and others are good enough, Xavi is impossible to suppress them on the field, Barcelona's attack is a combination of various scattered small combinations, the same gorgeous, the same control of the ball."

But this is completely different from Arsenal in this game, because Arsenal's attack is controlled at the feet of Xiang Hao, a player who is further behind.

He is like a commander, kneading all the players of Arsenal together, and through his every pass, changing the rhythm of every player of Arsenal.

If you have to compare it, then Hao is like a spider now, the whole stadium has become his spider web because of his passing, he is the one behind the scenes, the one behind everything in control.

It's terrifying, maybe Beckenbauer's Germans can be similar, but that was when they were at their peak, and Xiang Hao was only eighteen years old, and I can't imagine anyone else at this age who can show such control. ”

That kind of obsessive and adoring gaze, seeing Lineker's heart tremble. There is no doubt that Mortenson's pursuit of Xiang Hao has reached another level.

What the Mortensen people say is the deep meaning behind the situation on the pitch. And this is only for top insiders to see and understand clearly.

Arsene Wenger was undoubtedly one of them, his gaze was already a little straight, and he looked at his beloved disciple incredulously.

The old man saw Mortensen more clearly, he knew that this was just Xiang Hao's performance, and it was also the explosion in this game after the accumulation of most of the season.

In order to fully tap Xiang Hao's ability, at the beginning of the season, Wenger sent a large number of videos of famous celebrities, including Beckenbauer, Ballack, Vieira..., for him to study and transform him.

He knew that this transformation was not easy, and he even felt a little extravagant, so he never checked what Xiang Hao had learned. Because he understands that what kind of effect the transformation will only be reflected in the game.

This reflects that Wenger is actually waiting for the next two seasons, when the team is fully mature, and after Xiang Hao becomes the leader of the team, he believes that he will come out.

Wenger didn't expect Xiang Hao to comprehend so quickly, he knew that this game was almost over.

With everything in control of the court, Xiang Hao is the king! A real king!

“GOOOOOOOOOOO――OL!!! Robin! ”

A roar like a song rang out fifteen minutes after kick-off in the second half.
