"Professor, aren't you thinking about the next Champions League game? It's not easy for your group to show up. George was surprised when he saw Arsenal's starting line-up.

Arsenal are not in a good position in the group stage right now. The first game was a home defeat to Real Madrid, followed by a second game against Lazio. If there is anything wrong in this game, then there will be a real problem for Arsenal to appear.

In this group, even the weakest Anderlecht is extraordinary.

Don't look at Anderlecht as a team in the Belgian league. But the fighting power is very strong, and it broke out from that group of Manchester United.

Manchester United were the strongest in that group. In addition to Manchester United, there are PSV Eindhoven and Dynamo Kiev. In this group, being able to lead PSV Eindhoven and Dynamo Kiev and finally break through can also know the strength of Anderlecht.

Arsenal really got into an absolute group of death.

Therefore, after seeing all the main players of Arsenal playing, George asked suspiciously.

"George, it doesn't seem like it's going to be easy for you in the next game. Playing Bayern, it was a tough battle. Now that you are doing your best, are you so confident? Arsene Wenger asked George with a smile.

George shook his head.

"Professor, it's easier for our group. Even if we lose to Bayern, we won't have a problem showing up. But you're ......," George smiled maliciously.

Blackburn was able to knock out Arsenal in the UEFA Cup last season, and it was George who saw Arsenal's lifeblood. It's that they are definitely going to fight to save the Champions League place. This time, George originally thought that Arsenal would attach importance to the Champions League and would give up some leagues appropriately.

Therefore, George is the main force in this game, and he wants to use this opportunity to beat Arsenal. But I didn't expect Wenger to have no intention of giving up the league at all.

"George, you ......" Wenger did not continue to fight with George.

He just smiled and shook his head, then returned to his seat.

Arsene Wenger was depressed, really depressed. George is right when he says that Arsenal are in a dilemma right now. Once you lose the next game to Lazio, then the situation will be really problematic. Arsene Wenger is reluctant to leave the Champions League just like that, but Arsene Wenger is not willing to give up either.

Arsenal have changed a lot this season. Ovemas on the left turned into Wiltord and midfielder Petit became Edu. The left-back position has also changed from Silvinho to Ashley. Cole.

Ashley. Cole has not completely replaced Silvinho as Arsenal's main player, but now he has basically the same opportunities as Silvinho.

As for Parloer on the right, Ljungberg is playing against Keane. And after being tackled down by Keane, he was the first to do it. As a result, the ban reached seven games, and it is still in the middle of the ban.

Blackburn's side has not changed much, the biggest change is that Van Bronckhorst has become Riese. After that, it was George who arranged for Pire to play on the right and Duff to play on the left. This is George targeting Arsenal's backline Lauren and Ashley. Cole made changes.

Lauren is a typical African player with a fierce fight, a fierce style, plenty of physical strength and outstanding physical fitness. Compared to Pire's technical style of play, Duff's direct effect should be better. And Ashley. Cole is strong, but he's too young. This is the first season as a main player, and the experience is very lacking.

Attacking players, especially talented midfielders, they need passion.

Even if they lack experience, they can play with their aura, their genius, and they can play beautiful attacks. They can even play some offenses that many people don't expect.

But a defensive player, with this talent and passion alone, can't really become a world-class defensive player.

Defenders need more experience and need to use games to gain experience. Only enough experience can turn a talented defensive player into a world-class defensive player. Ashley. Cole has plenty of talent, but unfortunately what he lacks most is experience.

Against this kind of rookie guard, it is impossible to succeed if you lunge hard.

They should be dealt with in a different way. It's like Pire, a man of great skill and experience, to deal with this kind of fledgling player.

Blackburn Rovers and Arsenal are both representatives of the Premier League's technical stream, but the two teams also have very different styles of play. Arsenal's attacking style is fast, especially with quick attacks on both flanks. Including the speed of Henry in front.

It can be said that Arsenal's style of play is dazzling and beautiful, and it is full of passion. There are players like Bergkamp who have turned into an art, and players like Ljungberg and Thierry Henry who push their speed to the extreme.

Arsenal pass the ball quickly and have one of the best attacking and defensive tempo in the Premier League.

Blackburn, on the other hand, is more of a midfield control, slow in the fast, fast in the slow. One by one, break the opponent's defense.

These are two different ways of playing entirely.

Arsenal's attack relied more on two flanks, but Wiltord was more of a striker, while Parlour was not weak, but less sharp than Ljungberg. It's Vieira in the midfield, who is getting better and better.

Almost single-handedly carried the defense and attack of the Arsenal midfield.

In the past against Arsenal, Miku and Deco used their combination to get rid of Vieira. However, Vieira's strength is becoming more and more horizontal, and his performance in the midfield is obvious to all. George looked at the game, and although Blackburn Rovers had three players in midfield, they did not have much advantage against Vieira and Edu.

So with a wave of his hand, George let Blackburn play wide.

Blackburn Rovers attacked the flanks and Arsenal's two flanks immediately retreated.

That's when George's wing tactics worked. Ashley. Cole is indeed strong, but the experience is really lacking. In the face of Pire, the old fox, it was a loss. Pire faces Ashley. Cole definitely doesn't lunge and punch, but is very cunning and uses technique to outperform.

Of course the average technical player in the face of Ashley. Cole's fast, nimble defender can't be that easy.

But Pire is no ordinary man. Pire's passing skills are not very dazzling, but they are very effective. Let the fledgling Ashley. Cole knows that the sky is high and the earth is thick.

“…… It's Pire again, and this game Ashley. Cole was already dazed by Pire. See what Pire did this time? ”

In fact, if it was Ashley in his prime. Cole, of course two or three years later Ashley. Cole, wouldn't have been bullied so much by Pire. But Cole is now only a nineteen-year-old, while Pire is a twenty-seven-year-old general.

Pire is a real player who has been through the storms. He won the UEFA Cup with Blackburn Rovers at club, the World Cup and the European Championship with the national team.

Cole looked at Pire nervously, this game made the arrogant Cole, very frustrated. It also let Cole know that there is a sky outside the sky. Pire looked at the immature Cole in front of him, not careless at all. He remembered very much how much George valued the little hairy boy.

However, Piret smiled at the corner of his mouth, and flicked his right foot outward, making a breakthrough appearance. Seeing Cole move, he immediately passed the ball in with his left foot. That angle is the small angle that Cole just revealed.

This ball is very well passed. Pass halfway between Cole and Adams and go around behind Keown. And it's a little bit away from He-Man.

"Pire, pass...... Klose...... Shot! ”

Klose has a good understanding up front right now. With Pire's pass, Klose cut in between Keown and Adams. Facing the ball was a direct volley, He-Man had already attacked, but there was nothing he could do.

'1-0, Klose's goal, Blackburn Rovers 1-0 away ahead. The goal had to be mentioned by Pire, whose passing was really unpredictable. Who could have imagined this ball. ”

Towards the end of the first half, Blackburn was leading 1-0 thanks to Klose's goal.

Arsenal also wanted to attack, but they didn't work on either side. And George has a lot of experience with Arsenal's defense. Blackburn's back line is backwards, keeping a certain distance from the goalkeeper. In midfield, both Claude Makelele and Deco were close to the backline.

Arsenal's penalty area is very small and it is possible if they can play it all the time. But neither the two wingers at the moment, Parlour nor Wiltord, are the kind of delicate men. And Henry is not a center forward in the penalty area like Trezeguet and Crespo.

So George is more about not allowing Arsenal to get chances near the top of the arc in the big penalty area. In this area, especially on the left, Henry has a very beautiful long-range shot.

However, Arsene Wenger's reaction was still the same, and he did not make any substitutions because he was behind.

It wasn't until 20 minutes into the second half that Arsene Wenger made his first change. Dalma replaces Edu.

Steve. Dalma, the player Arsene Wenger bought for £5 million this season. In his previous life as a fan, George was very unfamiliar with the name Dalma. I have almost never heard of such a person.

But in the current French football scene, Dalma is an out-and-out talented midfielder.

Dalma, now 21 years old, is considered by French football to be Zidane's successor. It is very famous in France, and there are many clubs that pay attention to Dalma. If it weren't for Arsene Wenger's extensive connections in French football, he would not have won Dalma. With Arsene Wenger's cautious surname, he can spend five million pounds, which also shows that Wenger values this young player very much.

It's just that after arriving at Arsenal this season, Wenger has clearly paid more attention to Wiltord. Dalma has had limited playing time.

I don't know what Wenger means by having Dalma on the field now? George was keen to see what the young player, who was hailed as Zidane's successor, was capable of.

Dalma wasn't very tall, about the same as George. That is, it is just over 1.8 meters, but the body is very strong. Looks a bit like the Argentine beast Tevez. After coming on the pitch, he stood in the middle of the left flank.
