Section 514 Sour words
When Tottenham won 2-0 against Arsenal at their home turf, the format of the league this season is finally becoming clear. After beating Arsenal, Tottenham are now in first place in the league after 30 rounds, and they have three points behind Chelsea and six points from Manchester United.
Originally, people thought that in this derby, Tottenham, who had been fighting continuously, would definitely not be able to compete with Arsenal because of physical exhaustion. Even if they get a draw and let Chelsea turn the difference of three points into one point, this season's Premier League struggle will still have a lot to watch. However, Tottenham relied on the thickness of their squad to eat Arsenal, so that Tottenham's advantage was too great. In their remaining eight rounds, there is only one Manchester City that can be called a strong team, but Manchester City's Mancini is very weak against Li Bin, such a game situation is too simple for Tottenham.
'It was a surprise for Arsenal to lose in the derby, we have too many injuries to our players and it's normal that we can't beat Tottenham with a better squad when the injury tide hits. However, even if Arsenal lose, they will not give up easily, a lot of our players will have to recover and when they do, we can still play well. ”
In an interview, Wenger expressed his confidence in his team, but unfortunately, his thousand words were summed up by the media into one sentence: Arsenal and Manchester City are fighting for the fourth, and there is more hope.
After people made a mockery of Arsenal, it is natural that some people did not forget to express their envy of Tottenham. Tottenham to now, to become the league leader, is really too surprising, this season in the Premier League at the beginning of the competition is very fierce, when everyone watched the teams crazy goals, but also are making all kinds of guesses, but who guessed that after the most lu, the best results in the league, it will be Tottenham!
Two years ago, they were still fighting for a Europa League place, but in Li Bin's second season at Tottenham, it is rare to be able to have such a result. In the past, people speculated who the Premier League champion was, and it would naturally be comparable to Manchester United, Chelsea, or Arsenal and Liverpool, but from today onwards, when people predict the champion, Tottenham Hotspur has to be considered.
Two years ago, no one could have imagined that the top four of the Premier League would have such a change, and the big4 was originally a symbol of the strength of the Premier League, but now, the rise of Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur has changed all that.
'Tottenham are the best team in the league right now. Although the three-point advantage is not large, as long as they grasp the three-point advantage, they may directly win the championship. However, if they can sit back and relax, there are some undesirable cases, the Premier League has had Manchester United and Arsenal in the last eight rounds of the five points to win the title, now Tottenham and Chelsea are only three points apart, the goal difference is not as good as the opponent, Tottenham want to win, or be cautious. ”
The media still don't think that Tottenham are already the ironclad champions: it's not unheard of such a team that has played itself to death in the last few rounds. However, the media has expressed a lot of congratulations to Tottenham: when a non-giant team plays such a good result, the media will naturally support them more. Second, Tottenham is playing very well now, and it has also proved the strength of the Premier League from the side, and people are naturally happy.
"The Premier League has a better development prospect, so that the excellent coaches of Serie A have poured in, and because of the more good players, today's Premier League has achieved a more developed and more developed situation, and the Premier League teams in the future want to compete for the league championship, and even the Champions League places, but also the team has to pay more effort."
People have seen the changes in the league for a long time, and this speculation is very reliable. It's just that the media is very satisfied with such a result. This season, Manchester City and Liverpool have played very well in the League Cup, and they have also earned a lot of points for the Premier League, and even Liverpool has not been eliminated now, and may even reach the final and win the League Cup, which is also very good for the Premier League points.
If a league can have six strong teams, four in the Champions League and two in the League Cup, how good it is!
There has been a lot of discussion in the media about Tottenham's results, but what makes Li Bin a little helpless is that although the results are very good, the media's evaluation of Li Bin has not improved much.
Although it is true that his team has finished at the top of the league table, this is already their second season. Several famous managers in the Premier League, whether it is Wenger or Mourinho, won the league title in their first season in charge, and although Benitez did not win the league title, he won the Champions League. Compared to these teams, Tottenham's results are eye-catching, but they are nothing. Although Li Bin thinks that his speed of strengthening Tottenham is already the same, but looking at the history of the Premier League, Arsene Wenger, Mourinho, Dalglish, and Clough, their degree of openness is still above Li Bin.
Although Li Bin can complain that they all had the problem that England's tactical system was not complete at that time, and they were bullying backward elements with advanced ideas. However, people can also complain that Li Bin has spent too much energy on bullying Manchester United to rebuild this season, resulting in not too good results, and it is also the wife of Chelsea who has reached the top of the list.
Li Bin was originally a world-class coach, who won the Champions League, after taking over the team, he did not let the team produce results as quickly as Arsenal or Chelsea, but also needed to rely on off-field factors to be able to get such an advantage in the second season, which is not too good. Even, some media have made a very simple calculation.
"If it weren't for the problem of the friends and wives this season, then Tottenham would probably be a season with all four gone. After two seasons, only one FA Cup has been won, and Tottenham's results are not much better than Manchester City. Li Bin was very lucky, accepting Parma to catch up with the phone door in the second season, and this season allowed him to catch up with the league championship at his fingertips, but this does not mean that his strength must be really strong. ”
These words of the media are quite pantothenic. To say that Tottenham's results in the past two seasons are not much better than Manchester City is a serious insult in the eyes of many at Tottenham.
However, in an interview, Li Bin only smiled at this, "Of course my luck is very good, there is no need to deny this." But if you think that you just won the championship by luck, it would be too much to look down on me. When I was in Serie A, I knew a coach who was tougher than me, but he didn't win the championship, so it can be seen that the championship is not all about luck. Chelsea met their friends and they slipped and we got top of the table, why didn't the other teams get top of the table? There are more teams in the Premier League and we can get to this position, and that's our quality. ”
At this time, Li Bin didn't have any scruples, and after saying this, he also made another statement, "And, even if we don't mention our league results, what's the matter, in the Champions League, we don't seem to be eliminated." Why are we doomed to be empty, and on the Champions League side, we must have lost? ”
Li Bin's statement made the media detonate again. Could it be that Li Bin still has the idea of going further in the Champions League? If Tottenham did win the Champions League in their second season, it would be unthinkable.
And all this does not seem impossible. When the Champions League game started again, Tottenham, who was playing at home, once again told Fiorentina what it really was to be strong in their own home stadium.
In the home game, Tottenham had the upper hand early on. Although they switched back to the 442 style of play in this game, Cavani and Suarez started at the same time, and Di Maria and Bale were also replaced on both sides, however, the change of tactics did not make Tottenham hesitate too much, and soon after the opening, Tottenham's advantage became bigger and bigger.
It's just that in this game, Fiorentina didn't admit defeat so quickly. After suffering enough losses in the last game, they also arranged a tighter defense on the left side, when Di Maria wanted to break through, Ramirez next to him would immediately make some small fouls on him: Di Maria's body is thin, is his biggest disadvantage, in the last game, he can also be very good alone to single out a defense line of Fiorentina, but this time, under the close attention of Fiorentina, his breakthrough chance has been much smaller.
"Di Maria's breakthrough is not good...... Toure counter-attacked and got the ball. Tottenham's midfield control is still very good, Montolivo still can't be compared with Yaya Toure, however, how Tottenham should attack is a more troublesome matter, Yaya Toure inserted, or rely on Suarez to retreat? ”
The commentator watched Tottenham's style of play and was also making predictions, but, unlike what he imagined, Yaya Toure did not move forward by himself after getting the ball, nor did he choose to give Suarez, but crossed the ball to Coentrão on the wing. In this game, Coentrão made a comeback, which made Tottenham's attack on the left side very strong. This left flank is the focus of Tottenham's attack.
Coentrão received the ball, he directly went forward, on the side, and rushed up quickly, and Bale, who was originally in the midfield, also adjusted his speed at this time, and came closer, not far from him, almost in a parallel direction with him, running together, the sudden attack of these two people, so that Tottenham's impact, the power suddenly increased.
In general, when a team wants to increase the number of players in the frontcourt, the best way to do it is to have the players on the wing heavily inserted. It's just that in many cases, this requires a full-back to have a strong ability to plug in and be able to occupy a wide line. Coentrão's strength is actually not enough to occupy a wing lane alone, but after cooperating with Bale, the side cooperation of the two people becomes very, quite unstoppable. A top-class full-back paired with a top-class winger is the most ferocious form of play, and Tottenham do this in order to dominate a wide line.
What's more, they don't just have wings.
Coentrão quickly rushed past the midfield and kicked the ball towards Yaya Toure in midfield. Yaya Toure kicked the ball diagonally to the side, and Bale, who was running in front, took the ball and rushed directly to the baseline.
"Bell Impact! Bale broke through with the ball and he was very fast! It's just that Bale has always been running without the ball at Tottenham, playing counterattacks and showing his face more, he doesn't break through with the ball very much, and now Di Maria is jailed, Tottenham wants Bale to break through, but in the face of the Italian's defense, does he break through? ”
Bell's technique is not very detailed, which also makes the commentator doubt his ability. However, Bell himself never doubted his own abilities. Because he knows exactly what he can do!
