Sunderland.

Sunderland's history at Arsenal's home stadium is a rough one, especially in the Premier League era. In the Premier League era, Sunderland never won at Arsenal's home stadium. For more than 20 years, Sunderland has been here with a lot of draws.

Sunderland are also Arsenal's favourite opponents at home.

Of course, Sunderland's strength is not as good as Arsenal's. Arsenal are the team that will play in the Champions League, and Sunderland have been relegation teams in recent years. The goals of both sides are different.

Although Arsenal has taken away Van Persie this season, Arsenal's strength is still overshadowing Sunderland. In this game, Wenger discharged Arteta, Diaby and Cazorla in the midfield.

Mikel Arteta controlled the tempo of the game, Diaby linked up and Cazorla was the central player in midfield. Cazorla was in charge of the attack.

The two wings were Jin Ming on the left and Walcott on the right, and Arsene Wenger unexpectedly arranged Gervinho on the front. Such midfield strength almost crushed Sunderland.

At the start of the game, Sunderland only tested Arsenal in the opening stages. Two crosses came in, and after being cleared by Szczesny, Sunderland's attack disappeared.

When the opening three-pronged axe didn't work, Sunderland pulled back quickly.

Defend.

There is no shame in defense.

Speaking of the beginning of the Premier League, everyone was still quite encouraged to attack. Graham's Arsenal is so ugly that even the Arsenal fans themselves booed Graham.

In fact, there were many teams in the Premier League that played defensive counterattacks.

There are even those who play turtle defense. But such a team has been under fire from many fans. Even your own team doesn't like that.

However, it is the current Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho who pierced this window. The nouveau riche Chelsea, coupled with the arrogant and uninhibited Mourinho, their combination has become an alternative in European football and an alternative in English football. But their combination is a match made in heaven, and their combination is definitely one of the most capital-worthy collaborations in Chelsea history.

At that time, Mourinho counter-attacked with defense and won two Premier League titles. It has destroyed countless giants in European football. No matter how ugly the game is, Mourinho has a way to arouse the emotions of the fans. There are ways to get the fans to cheer for the team.

Jose Mourinho is a great guy and he brings a lot of something different to the Premier League. Among them, I told everyone that the defense was how. I can win the championship defensively, I can win the championship defensively. I was loved by the fans and cheered by the fans as much as I defended.

Since then, many teams have started to imitate Mourinho.

There is no shame in defending against strong teams.

Sunderland arrived at Arsenal's home stadium and even if they couldn't get three points, it was a good result to take a point.

Therefore, Sunderland's style of play in this game is very pragmatic. When a tentative attack on Arsenal was unsuccessful, they immediately retreated into their own half. Then there is the siege of Arsenal.

It is more difficult for Jin Ming to adapt.

Whether it's Seoul FC or Schalke, although there are times when the team has an advantage. But like this game. Seventy per cent possession and the whole ball rolling on Sunderland's side was the first time we had seen it.

Although Jin Ming's offensive means are very rich, Jin Ming still has the best effect in counterattacks. And not when this kind of siege is the time of the opponent. There is a lack of space to besiege the opponent, and Jin Ming's speed is greatly reduced.

The style of play is really different.

Run.

With this kind of ball control advantage, Jin Ming seems that only when the frontcourt players keep running and constantly changing positions, can they create more opportunities. It allows the midfielders at the back to have more passing routes. But Jin Ming soon discovered that Arsenal's frontcourt players were not very fond of running.

I also don't like to change positions at random.

They don't move. Jin Ming can't run at will. You can't take their place.

This made Jin Ming only stay on the left side, which was a bad feeling. However, Jin Ming did not find out how to deal with such a situation. However, Jin Ming is thinking about how to integrate into the team, and there is no need to adapt to one person.

It's completely seamless with the team.

Cazorla.

It's a really good player. I just came to Arsenal for a few days, and I came to Arsenal more than 20 days later than Jin Ming. Didn't take part in Arsenal's pre-match training camp. But after starting today, there was no awkwardness at all.

It's like a natural Arsenal player.

Passing, breaking, passing, balancing left and right feet, there's nothing Cazorla wouldn't have. See Cazorla play like this. Jin Ming is not willing to lag behind, Jin Ming wants to play more roles. So Jin Ming thought about it, and then stepped forward and grabbed Gervinho. "When San Diego got the ball, we ran a lot and switched positions. It also gives him some chance to pass the ball. ”

After finishing speaking, Jin Ming ran to Cazorla's side.

Gervinho began to froze.

Gervinho doesn't like Jin Ming very much, because he thinks that Jin Ming came to Arsenal to grab his position. Therefore, after Jin Ming came to Arsenal, Gervinho has always been cold to Jin Ming.

Therefore, just now Jin Ming grabbed himself to speak, and Gervinho was quite surprised. And soon Gervinho was a little angry, because when Jin Ming talked to him, it was completely like an order.

You're not the manager, why do you order me?

But Gervinho was angry and couldn't say no.

What Gervinho thinks, Jin Ming doesn't understand. Because Jin Ming had already come to Cazorla's side, he pulled him and said, "San Diego, I'll let Gervinho run to the left later, and I'll insert it in the middle." Let's see how it turns out when the time comes. ”

There are not many people in the entire Arsenal dressing room who can speak Spanish fluently, and Jin Ming is one of them. So after Cazorla came to Arsenal, it was natural for him to mix with Jin Ming.

It's a given.

After all, Cazorla has just arrived in London, and the relationship with Arsenal's players is average, and everyone speaks different languages. At this time, if there is someone who can communicate with you fluently, you will definitely have a good relationship with him.

Cazorla nodded.

He understood what Jin Ming meant.

'Arsenal have been besieging Sunderland for 30 minutes and still haven't found a good way to score. The only good chance came when Cazorla's long-range shot from the edge of the twelve-minute period created some threat. ”

'Diaby, give the ball to Cazorla. Cazorla had an excellent game and he didn't need time to adjust to the pace of the Premier League. Cazorla, Cazorla sped past Larsson's side. Cazorla passes. Jin Ming received the ball. ”

Cazorla handed the ball to Jin Ming on the run, and Jin Ming was in the process of walking to the middle.

After receiving the ball, Jin Ming gently passed the ball over again. It's a very simple combination, and it's the easiest and most practical in Arsenal, or it's the easiest and most practical in European football. Although Jin Ming and Cazorla have been practicing together for a short time, both of them are very good players.

Some things don't need to be practiced together to produce a tacit understanding.

It's like this.

When Jin Ming passed the ball to Cazorla, he already understood what Cazorla meant. So the moment he received the ball, he passed it back again. The two of them simply got a Sunderland midfielder past him. After handing the ball back to Cazorla, Jin Ming suddenly turned around and ran towards the middle penalty area.

And saw Jin Ming running towards the penalty area. Gervinho, on the other hand, suddenly looked for space on the left.

Beyond control.

When Gervinho saw Jin Ming running to the middle, he involuntarily ran out to the left. Running and running, Gervinho was a little annoyed, how could he listen to Jin Ming's words so much.

However, as soon as Gervinho ran like this, he immediately took away the central defender Kural, who was originally defending him. It was because Arsenal's passing was good that Curral was afraid of Gervinho receiving the ball on the left.

And Jin Ming ran directly to the position of Gervinho just now.

"Cazorla, direct pass!"

"This ball passed very well, and it happened to come to Jin Ming. Jin Ming, O'Shea is keeping up with Jin Ming. ”

Cazorla's passing was really good.

After seeing Jin Ming's running route, Cazorla found the best passing route. The ball happened to pass into Jin Ming's running route. It's a split second of running and passing. Simple transfer and cutting fit.

But it was precisely because of the lightning and flint that Sunderland, who had been organizing and defending well, could not find out.

Of course, there is also a reason that Cazorla's skills are too good, and several of Sunderland's defensive midfielders are defending Cazorla, preventing him from breaking through. And Jin Ming's burst into the penalty area was too unexpected. In addition, Jin Ming's speed is too fast, so there is such a momentary loophole.

That's the running up front.

Attacking players up front need to keep running and changing positions to give midfielders space and opportunities to pass the ball. The simple run of Jin Ming and Gervinho allowed Cazorla to seize the opportunity.

Or O'Shea was the quickest to react. Before Jin Ming got the ball, he immediately stepped forward to block the front and blocked Jin Ming's shooting route.

Jin Ming was going to shoot directly.

However, it was found that O'Shea had already flown in and the shot was easily blocked by O'Shea. Therefore, Jin Ming forcibly stopped his body in an instant. Then he immediately smashed the ball with his right foot.

This action looks simple, but it is very difficult to do.

In particular, Jin Ming's speed is relatively fast, and if he wants to stop his body, he is even prone to injury.

However, fortunately, Jin Ming's explosiveness is strong, and the same emergency stop and turn is also a common practice item. And O'Shea is not so easy. He was originally ignoring a qiē to block Jin Ming's shot, so he didn't think about that at all.

When Jin Ming stopped and turned sharply, O'Shea also wanted to stop urgently, but he couldn't stop his body. O'Shea is old, and he can't stop and turn around as much as he did when he was younger.

Jin Ming dunked the ball back, but O'Shea was already thrown aside because he was too strong.

"Jin Ming, Jin Ming smashed the ball and completely shook O'Shea. Jin Ming, there is only a goalkeeper in front of Jin Ming. ”

After Jin Ming stopped the ball, he looked up at the position of the goalkeeper. Although it was in the penalty area, there were still many defenders coming, but Jin Ming did not shoot in a hurry. On the contrary, he calmly observed the position of the goalkeeper before shooting with his left foot.

"Jin Ming, shoot!"

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！”

"Jin Ming! Jin Ming! Jin Ming! It was his first competitive game for Arsenal but he scored a goal to put Arsenal ahead of Sunderland. Couldn't it get better than this? ”

'Arsenal have made very good signings this year. Whether it is Jin Ming, who scored the goal, or Cazorla, both of them are very easy to integrate into the Premier League. The two of them didn't need to adapt at all. (To be continued......)
