vs 477 Spear-to-spear confrontation
The commentator's puzzlement was quickly answered, because in less than 20 minutes, Arsenal had already used a goal to explain what Li Bin would rather attack than defend.
Arsenal's goal came a little suddenly, and they and Tottenham were still in a fierce battle in midfield, but suddenly, Cesc Fabregas took advantage of a Kevin Boateng negligence to break through the opponent. His through ball went straight to Villa's feet, and Villa was in the box, a stop-and-go smash that dodged the defending Palmeri and sent the ball into the back of the net.
"David Villa! Eighth goal of the league! It was a brilliant goal, David Villa's shooting was close to perfection, Palmeri only gave him a very small angle, but he still got the ball in! Superb marksmanship, amazing marksman! ”
This shot made the Emirates Stadium jubilant, and also left Li Bin speechless: he expected such a situation, but he absolutely did not like it.
Now Tottenham is still suffering because of the defensive counterattack in the previous games, because the tactics of defensive counterattack are easier to eat cards, Gustavo accumulated enough four yellow cards early, which made him unable to participate in this game, his absence, is Tottenham paid for the quality of their defense in the first few games, and this made Tottenham lose quite a lot.
Gustavo is an important link in the midfield on the one hand, connecting the left side of the attack, and on the other hand, he is also an important candidate for interception in the midfield. Without Gustavo, Tottenham's midfield is not fit enough to clash with Cesc Fabregas.
Fabregas's strength is very strong, although Li Bin has always believed that his skills are not necessarily as the media boasted that he is already the first midfielder in the Premier League, let alone that his current strength must be better than Yaya Toure, but he also has to admit that under Arsenal's system, Fabregas can indeed play well. He can plug in, he can defend, he can pass the ball, and in midfield, he makes the most of his strengths and can be said to be a very difficult role. In the past, Tottenham could use a midfielder to play against him, but without Gustavo, it is difficult for Tottenham to defend against Fabregas - Jenas them, and it is difficult to play with Fabregas, when Fabregas can pass a good ball in the midfield, this is a big threat.
If it was before, even if a Fabregas could pass the ball, Li Bin didn't particularly care. But now, Arsenal's strength has improved a lot, and Li Bin has to care. Their players up front are no longer Bam Adebayo and Theo Walcott from last season. On the two wings, Nasri and Sanchez, although it is unlikely to make an excellent breakthrough, however, they are both technical players, and the containment on the two wings is very strong, and the two of them can ensure that Tottenham's side cannot be closed to the middle, and they have to open the width at any time, and because there is enough width, Tottenham's defense will inevitably become thinner, so that Fabregas can pass the ball directly to David Villa in the penalty area and let David Villa shoot.
Compared to Van Persie, who had to fight in the box all the time last season, Villa is too much of a stain. Somebody passes the ball, somebody opens up space, he just needs to shoot to get the best effect. In terms of shooting, Li Bin seems to be afraid that there will be no better player than Villa in the whole world.
David Villa, a player, is hard to say how good he is at other dribbling and skills, but his shooting skills, especially the all-around left and right feet, and the ability to shoot both balls, can be said to be the first in the world. With such a player in the penalty area, how can Arsenal score fewer goals?
It can be said that this is a tactic built around Villa, someone pulls away, someone supports, and its purpose is to build the strongest Villa.
Tottenham have paid the price for their previous games, and at this time, they have met a team with the best passing and shooting skills, which is a big challenge for Tottenham. From the beginning, Li Bin thought of many ways to try to defend against Arsenal's attack, but at the end of the day, he still thought that it would be difficult for Tottenham to completely block Arsenal.
Villa is an attacking master, while Arsene Wenger is the best attacking coach. It's just when he only has Walcott in his hands, but when he has someone like Villa in his hands, then he can organize his own team and make the most ferocious attacks.
If he can't defend Arsenal's attack, Li Bin doesn't think it's too much of a problem. This season, Arsenal's attacking power is second only to Chelsea, and if it weren't for Van Persie's injury, it might even be above Chelsea, and it is not surprising that they can't hold on to the game.
Since Zhilu Dao is like this, what Li Bin wants to do is not to fight back - the fight back must be based on the success of the counterattack. But since Tottenham can't hold on, there's no way to fight back.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Li Bin chose a different set of tactics
On the field, at this time, Arsenal was making an attack, Sanchez took the ball, attacked along the side, and Coentrão opposite him defended early, Sanchez was leaned on the left side by Coentrão, he stopped the ball suddenly, and knocked the ball behind the left leg with a kick with his right heel, this kick stopped suddenly, so that Coentrão was not able to defend his pass, but he immediately turned around, and at the same time pushed Sanchez, who was already unstable, Easily snatched the ball under his feet.
Maybe now Arsenal can buy more good players, but Wenger is still the same old problem, refusing to let the players practice their bodies, refusing to let the players practice their skills. The players playing under him are still problematic in terms of confrontation, and that's where Tottenham shine a lot.
Coentrão grabbed the ball and kicked it directly to Di Maria in front. Di Maria didn't cut in immediately after getting the ball, he gave the ball to Yaya Toure next to him, and by this time, Coentrão had already started to cut in along the left wing, Yaya Toure slotted the ball straight to the left and sent it directly to his feet.
"Tottenham's counter-attack, Coentrão plugged in at high speed!"
Tottenham's counterattack was not particularly sharp, and Coentrão's insertion speed was not very fast, which made the Arsenal players immediately start to think about making a move on the right side, but their movement was not over, Coentrão had already kicked the ball, passed the ball out of the ball for a long distance, and kicked it directly to the right side!
A wide range of kicks that went straight across the pitch caught the Arsenal players off guard. Tottenham's attacking habits have always been small-scale combinations, rather than large-scale transfers, and now Yaya Toure and Di Maria are on the left wing, and Coentrão is very powerful, how can they attack on the right side?
But they knew it right away—because right now, Suarez was on the right side.
Li Bin did not use Bale in this game, but the purpose of using Suarez was very simple, that is, because Suarez's skills were better, and he could unload the ball more quickly when he launched a long pass on the left side and launched a direct attack. Compared with Bale, Suarez's skills are more delicate, and he can also play on the side, which provides the possibility for Li Bin's rotation of positions.
Bale's breakthrough is indeed ferocious, but against a top team like Arsenal, Li Bin believes Wenger will have a way to defend. Arsene Wenger has a knack for playing against the Premier League's body-flowing players all year round, and if he wants to beat him, he still has to rely on his skills, not his speed.
On the right side, Suarez, who got the ball, just shook off Klich who was in a hurry, and he ran two steps in the direction of the penalty area, without making more breakthroughs, and passed back with one kick, directly to the feet of Kevin Boateng, who was inserted in the midfield!
Li Bin arranged two forward-inserted midfielders, in order to make the opponent unguardable at such a time. He knows that Yaya Toure is too threatening now, and Arsenal will definitely attach great importance to his defense, so what he needs is not a Yaya Toure, but two forward plugged back midfielders to stir up the opponent's defense, Kevin Boateng as such a player, is absolutely qualified!
This is also why he chose Kevin Boateng for Lu, instead of choosing Malbranke with better organizational skills or Jenas with better defensive ability, but chose Kevin Boateng, because Kevin Boateng is more suitable for taking turns in the midfield and Yaya Toure, which can better mess up Arsenal's defense.
If it were Chelsea, such agitation might not have worked: the team's defense was too good for Kevin Boateng to take them. However, if it is Arsenal, such agitation is significant.
He was in front of the penalty area and was about to shoot from distance, but when Galla had already rushed up, Kevin Boateng slotted the ball to the right flank. On the right side, Klich had already returned to the defense, but he could not stop the ball for Suarez, who received the ball, took a step towards the bottom line, and then, with a kick, crossed, directly to the middle!
Cavani, who is in the middle of the pitch, has jumped. He jumped a head higher than Vermaelen, who was competing with him. Vermaelen is a good defender, he's very skilled, he's left-footed, he's got the ability to cut in – but he can't defend Cavani.
Cavani's header rubbed against the ball and it slotted towards the back post. Suarez's pass itself was curvature, which made Cavani's top ball very easy, and Almunia jumped, but he was helpless about this high ball!
“gooooal!!!! Cavani !! Edinson Cavani's header pulled a point back for Tottenham! With a 1-1 draw, Tottenham's hope of victory is not lost yet! ”
Since it's unlikely that you'll be able to block your attacks with defense, I'll try to break your defenses with offense. Li Bin knows that Tottenham's attacking ability is now comparable to Arsenal, and when it comes to defensive ability, Tottenham may not be able to defend it, while Arsenal is inevitably unstoppable - Arsenal's fragile and tragic defense line cannot be strengthened by one or two simple additions, and Wenger's thinking problems that have existed for many years are the problems of this team.
Since you can't shrink behind the shield and fight, then you can simply light up the fight and stab each other - Li Bin's idea is very simple, he wants to fight Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. I'm sure my attack is not weaker than yours, and I'm sure that my defensive ability is definitely better than yours - in that case, let's attack each other and see which of us falls first!
