Chapter 391: Letting go and the small threat of not being in the state
"Oh God!! It's just so wonderful!! Arsenal's attack is really dazzling and intoxicating! That's why in the nine-year history of not having a title, there are still many fans following, this is Arsenal's football, this is Arsenal's attacking style!! Herhouse still went his own way, and couldn't help but burst into a foul language. Anyway, no audience has ever told him to bring the children in front of the TV set, you must know that a five-year-old child in Europe can hit the away team when he comes to the stadium to watch the game. Fingered.
"It turned out that it wasn't Li Zihan's mistake before, it was a deliberate leak. He deliberately leaked the ball to Cazorla, who cut in, and Cazorla also understood the ball and exchanged the ball again to Li Zihan, and then Li Zihan cleverly used a heel to make the ball in the middle. In fact, he can play this ball himself, because the goalkeeper Guzan has lost his resistance, but his smooth movements make him not pay attention to the goalkeeper, and it can be seen that this pass has long been expected by him. In the end, Ramsey followed up to complete the fatal blow, and the young and brilliant Welsh midfielder did not waste the kindness of his teammates, and finally extended the score to 3-1! ”
Ramsey was still at a loss because he was just subconsciously following up on the run. Suddenly the ball appeared in front of his eyes, and he didn't even react to it. If you're a long-time Lee fan, you'll find this familiar to you if you've been watching him play since he was at Juventus. In his first professional league game, Lee's first assist was a sudden pass to a team-mate, who finally scored the ball. Lee is an all-round talent, whether it is scoring goals himself or assisting his teammates, he is handy! ”
By the time the score reached 3-1, the final result of the game seemed to have been revealed in advance. With more than 20 minutes remaining, Aston Villa can't score two or three goals in a row to turn the game around, otherwise they wouldn't be Aston Villa!
Seeing the good situation come to an end, Aston Villa's "helm" Paul Lambert was unwilling. So he plans to fight, in his eyes the game is a winner or loser, losing two goals is a loss, losing three or four goals is also a loss, anyway, why not press up and attack, in case you are lucky enough to score in the end, there are still 20 minutes left in the game, and there is still some time.
Typical utilitarian football, but that's the only way Aston Villa can do it at the moment.
When the clock ticked for the 70th minute, Aston Villa made a substitution. Ahmadi was replaced at the back, although Ahmadi also has a set of attacking skills in addition to defence, and his headers and long-range shots are good. However, at this time, it is obvious that pure attacking players in the front court are better than defensive midfielders, and the only concern is whether the decline in defensive ability will give Arsenal a chance.
He was replaced by Czech center forward Kozak, who is a typical center forward who is as tall as 1.93 meters. It is also an eye-catching sign in the front court, he will be paired with the 1.90m Belgian post-90 Benteke as a double center forward, with Weimann hiding behind the two.
Immediately afterwards, Australian midfielder Chris Hurd, who had a mediocre appearance, was replaced. In his place was Bulgarian attacking midfielder Tonev.
Everyone could tell that Aston Villa was going to give it a go.
Then Professor Arsene Wenger also began to make adjustments, and the main player in the front field, Spaniard Cazorla, was replaced. In his place is the "little threat" who has returned from injury, Wilshere.
Replacing Cazorla with one is to save Cazorla's body, after all, the season is still long, and Arsenal has often lost troops recently, which can be regarded as protecting him. Wilshere, who are returning from injury, will need a game to get back to their previous form, and it's clear that the game that has basically set the tone for the win is a perfect fit.
Wilshere's performance was not good after coming on the pitch, and there were mistakes in passing and receiving in several games. In a wide play up front, he should have given the ball to Monreal, who was inserted into the wing, but he chose to break through on his own. In the end, the opponent broke the ball and lost control of the ball.
After the opponent has been adjusted by substitutions, the control of the midfield has weakened a lot. Although the attack is very strong, it is difficult to get the ball a few times, and Arsenal play the best defense is attacking.
Wenger was mentally prepared to find it, and Wilshere, who had just returned, must be in unsatisfactory condition, so he pretended not to see Wilshere's watch for a few minutes and went with him. No matter how good a player is, it takes time for him to adjust himself. Arsenal are already two goals ahead of this game, so there is time to make adjustments for Wilshere. In the following game, Wenger was not sure that there was time to "waste" him, so he did not express his dissatisfaction with Wilshere except for occasionally standing on the sidelines to explain the precautions to the captain on the field.
Li Zihan also saw that Wilshere is no longer in shape, and players who return from injury are inevitable, and not everyone has changed like him. State.
So Li Zihan tried his best to hand over the ball to Wilshire to deal with when he had the ball, and he hoped that Wilshire could get back into shape with more ball possession and practice.
Then there was a strange scene on the pitch, when the dominant Arsenal attacked, most of the players passed the ball to Wilshere, who was wearing the number 10 shirt, when Wilshere's situation allowed. Then Wilshere dribbles or passes, and then it goes.
Wilshere either had a broken pass or a misplaced pass after receiving the ball.
Arsenal, who had the advantage to attack, immediately retreated from all sides, because Aston Villa's attack was still very threatening.
In the end, Flamini and Ramsey looked at the situation, a little speechless. yes, I won't go up myself, so as not to be hit by the other party and counterattack and cheat.
So Flamini and Ramsey took the initiative to stay in the midfield to intercept the opponent's counterattack, because Aston Villa changed tactics, their defenders did not have many players, and the front court was handed over to Li Zihan, Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Rosicky.
Wenger shook his head helplessly, he really couldn't say anything in this situation. You can't tell the players not to help Wilshere and play well.
In fact, the professor attaches great importance to Wilshere, after all, Wilshire belongs to the Arsenal people. The little threat joined Arsenal at the age of nine and then rose through the Arsenal ranks. And he's so talented that Arsene Wenger wants to make him a central piece of Arsenal or a banner.
Wilshere, who has been an Arsenal since he was a child, will never be "abducted" by other teams, Wenger thought to himself.
And in Wenger's mind, Wilshere is also the successor to the future Arsenal No. 1 captain.
The only thing that has disappointed Wenger is that Wilshere is often associated with injuries and has vices such as smoking.
But these are not big problems, young people, how can they not have some bad habits in life. Arsene Wenger is confident he will soon be able to rectify Wilshere's bad habits once and for all, and he doesn't want the talented youngster to get tangled up in matters outside of football.
It's just that as for the injured professor, he can only shake his head helplessly, fortunately, it is not the reason for the injuries over the years, Wilshere's achievements are now more than that.
Wilshere aside, Aston Villa, who had strengthened their attack, still failed to score. Despite the firepower of the two centre-forwards, there doesn't seem to be much of a good interplay between the two centre-forwards, Benteke and Kozak.
Although the two of them are competitors to each other, there is no contradiction, but they can't find the feeling of "calling" on the court. If it weren't for the core of the front ten, Austrian Weimann's tandem, Aston Villa's frontcourt attack would have been a mess at all.
In the end, Paul Lambert, who was still unwilling to play, came to the sidelines, whistling and shouting incessantly to attract the attention of his players. Then make gestures to make adjustments to the shape on the field.
Fans soon noticed that Aston Villa's formation had undergone some changes, with Dutch striker Bakuna up front, almost parallel to Kozak and Benteke.
Bakuna's body is very strong, and he is not short at a height of 1.87 meters. And also has good heading skills and running up front, Aston Villa relied on Bacuna to form a three-centre-forward formation.
As a result, Aston Villa's attack is more ferocious, affected by the opposition's attacking pressure. Wilshere also didn't dare to dribble and pass wide when he got the ball, but opted for a small range of combinations. Because he was afraid that he would hand over the ball again and then give the opponent a chance to counterattack.
Arsenal fans are a little worried, although they now have a two-goal advantage, but according to Aston Villa's crazy attack, the opponent will not be able to keep the goal. Once the opponent scores, the morale will be even higher, and the attack will become more and more fluid. It's not impossible, and it's not uncommon for many Premier League teams to be upset when they encounter traditional giants.
And in the face of the impact of Kozak and Benteke, the pressure on the two central defenders of Vermaelen and Koscielny is already quite large. What's more, there is now an extra Bakuna with a very dominant body and a strong impact. Fortunately, Vermaelen did not have some low-level mistakes in this game, otherwise it is estimated that he would have been scored by the opponent a long time ago.
Arsene Wenger soon made adjustments and used up the last substitution.
