This obviously can't be the score of this game, this is one of the data that Ye Qiu got in his hands.

Arsenal had three shots on goal in the first half, one on target, so with the scoreboard at Highbury Stadium currently showing that the home side are 0 ahead of the visitors, Chelsea don't look like they are too good or effective with Arsenal's defence.

Maybe it was because he took the lead unexpectedly in the 35th minute through the odd soldiers, Wenger was in a good mood, and he turned his head to look at Ye Qiu with a little smile in his expression, which couldn't help but make Ye Qiu feel very unhappy, and scolded angrily, "Fuck old fox"

Cunning? Yes, Arsene Wenger was indeed as cunning as the Foxes in this game

He announced before the game that Reyes, Ljungberg, Ashley Cole and Gilberto Silva would all miss the game for a variety of reasons, but at the end of the game, all four players were on the pitch and all starting.

Ye Qiu did not fail to consider the possibility that Wenger was releasing smoke bombs, on the contrary, he had always paid attention to one point.

However, Wenger's line-up in this game is indeed different from his past, very bold and very innovative, and a very interesting point is that Bergkamp actually came off the bench, and rookie Reyes was qualified to start, partnering Henry.

Ye Qiu said before that Arsenal is a team that is very good at exploiting loopholes, and the two ribs and back inserts are the offensive methods they are very good at.

Let Henry and Reyes start side by side, this is obviously a bold change by Wenger, because the combination of Henry and Bergkamp has been thoroughly understood by Ye Qiu, and the past two games have not shown results, so he arranged Reyes to start in this game and adjusted the coordination tactics of the two strikers.

The two strikers were more likely to move between Chelsea's full-backs and centre-backs, and then cut through Andreas Pire and Ljungberg to find links and create chances.

Arsenal's goal was clearly the same, with Pire's linking up with Thierry Henry on the left to attract Makelele, before a big foot shifted to the right, where Lauren cut in and won the ball and passed to Ljungberg, where the Swede appeared in the area between Evra and Cannavaro, and the Swede cut through the Chelsea defence

Reyes quickly cut into the penalty area from the position that Cannavaro had lost, and after winning the ball, he directly pushed the goal with his right foot, 0

The Spaniard's performance after joining Arsenal was indeed very good, and his characteristics were very different from Bergkamp, which obviously made the Chelsea defenders a little stunned, and finally scored a goal by a counter-attack by Arsenal.

This is not a good sign, because Arsene Wenger is clearly prepared for the pre-match setup of Chelsea for this game.

Ye Qiu's tactical arrangement for this game is actually very targeted, Arsenal's players fight on multiple fronts, the thickness of the bench is not as good as Chelsea's, and the players are tired, which everyone knows, no matter how Wenger hides it, he can't hide this.

Ye Qiu specifically arranged this problem for Arsenal, and he asked Drogba, Lampard, Davies, Deco and Makelele to expand their own space to move, comprehensively suppress Arsenal's midfield, and be able to appear in the opponent's dangerous area when attacking, pulling Arsenal's defense.

The use of offensive opportunities to insert back is Ye Qiu's strength, and Arsenal's fatigue makes Ye Qiu believe that using this tactic can effectively drag down Arsenal, so he said so confidently before the game that Arsenal's rout started tonight, this is because he has a very strong confidence in his tactics.

failed to break the deadlock in the first half, Ye Qiu had expected it, and he was not in a hurry, because he knew very well that the key was in the second half, but what he didn't expect was that the back line made a mistake, and Reyes's miracle weapon actually worked, and he also scored, which disrupted Ye Qiu's plan.

Ye Qiu now knows very well that the players must be hesitating now, and they are all beginning to suffer from gains and losses, because the goals conceded have obviously put the team at a disadvantage, and Arsenal will definitely play more resolute defensive counterattacks in the future.

Will Chelsea be able to make effective changes to break down Arsenal's defence?

I believe that this has become a doubt in the hearts of all fans who pay attention to this game, and the live broadcast footage of the scene is frequently given to Ye Qiu, who was sitting in the coach's seat on the sidelines, but found that Ye Qiu did not have any movement, just sitting there, folding his fingers, looking straight at the game, expressionless.

German referee Merck blew the final whistle on time for the first half, and the entire Highbury Stadium burst into deafening cheers, clearly surprised and satisfied by the team's first-half lead.

0 took the lead, despite the team's disadvantage on the field, everyone had no doubt that Arsenal had a certain advantage in this game, unless, Ye Qiu, a guy known as a magician, could change the team again in the midfield.

No one spoke in the away team's locker room, because Ye Qiu clearly stipulated that players were forbidden to complain to each other, but many people's eye contact with each other could not hide their disappointment and worry about falling behind in the first half.

It is important to know that Chelsea failed to gnaw Arsenal's hard bone when they had the advantage twice.

The team's coaching staff was busy preparing in the locker room, and the masseur began to massage and relax the legs of some players.

And this is also the unspoken rule and sacred place of the locker room

Imagine if a reporter or a fan burst into the dressing room, saw the scene, and spread the word, how terrible would that be for the team? The privacy of the players will be thoroughly discussed and talked about by fans and the media.

Of course, the ban on women on the football coaching staff is not without consideration.

In the wordless dressing room, the players are going their own way, but without exception, all of them are waiting for the arrival of the manager at the door of the dressing room from time to time, and whether they are big names such as Ronaldinho, Cannavaro or young rookies, they need the manager to give them some support and tell them what to do.

And if the manager can't support them at this time, the prestige will also be seriously weakened.

Just ask, who will be convinced of an unreliable guy at a critical moment?

Ye Qiu finally pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in, many players stopped the masseur directly, signaled that they didn't need a massage anymore, and began to wait intently for the head coach to arrange the task for the second half.

The coaching staff, staff, and masseurs all left the locker room one after another, and the rest was Ye Qiu and the players.

"There's not much time, I'll make a long story short" Ye Qiu still didn't look a little anxious, he looked very calm, but a little urgent, this is also what he wants to convey to the players, that is, the game is still in the planning, and there is no need to mess around, but the situation is a bit urgent, and everyone needs to pay more attention.

'We executed the tactics in the first half, as I said before, Arsenal were obviously not as fit as we were, and from what I observed in the first half, I was very sure of that, whether it was Gilberto Silva, Ljungberg, Ashley Cole, Vieira and others, they were clearly lacking in fitness.

Speaking of this, Ye Qiu's words changed, "But I have to adjust the tactics in the second half, we are behind now, and it is impossible to continue to pin our hopes on the counterattack after the opponent's lack of physical fitness, so we have to advance the time of the counterattack."

Originally, Ye Qiu and Peter Brandt initially estimated that Arsenal's fitness would be problematic after 65 minutes, and after 75 minutes, their fighting spirit would definitely be affected by their fitness, and by then, Chelsea pressed on the counter-attack.

In terms of physical fitness, Arsenal is not as good as Chelsea, which is also the reason why Ye Qiu deliberately wanted to drag down Arsenal's physical fitness from the beginning of the game, but he didn't expect to be scored first by Arsenal.

The result of the first goal is that if they continue to wait like this, Arsenal's fighting spirit will become more tenacious because they are ahead, they see hope, and even if there is a problem with fitness, they will try to make sure they stay to the end.

Therefore, Ye Qiu's strategy is that before 75 minutes, the team must equalize, otherwise this game will be difficult to play.

It is a test of physical and mental fitness

"Remember what I told you? Arsenal have fitness problems every year in 34 months, and once this team has fitness problems, it tends to drop dramatically, and last season they lost the league title in April, which is a mental illness. ”

Regarding the data of Arsenal's frequent drops and poor performance in 34 months, Ye Qiu has given a very complete explanation to the players before the game, and it has also been accepted by the players, which is to build confidence in the game.

'On the surface, Arsenal don't have a clear underbelly, but that doesn't matter, if there's no underbelly, we'll create a weakness for them. When he said this, Ye Qiu walked to the middle of the dressing room, "Gilberto Silva doesn't run much, there is indeed a problem with physical fitness, Arsenal's midfield relies on Vieira, but the Frenchman's condition is not good, I believe that this will be more obvious in the second half." ”

"So" Ye Qiu pointed to Davis and Makelele, "In the second half, you have to pay attention to the suppression of Vieira, attack his side when attacking, press him more when defending, I want to make him tired, and beware of Pire"

Davis and Makelele nodded their heads as they listened, this task was nothing difficult for them to understand.

"In the second half we had to adjust the team's attacking tactics and I found that Arsenal obviously had a specific plan for Drogba in this game, Campbell always followed you, right?" Ye Qiu asked.

The sleek dewy elephant king of Côte d'Ivoire nodded, "That guy is terrible"

'Yes, but one thing I've noticed is that Lauren doesn't have a very good grasp of the distance around him, and Kolo Toure is obviously different from Campbell, especially when we're putting pressure on the opposition defence, and the whole Arsenal defence is in a straight line, Lauren's position tends to be on the right.

After listening to Ye Qiu's words, all the frontcourt players paid attention, because they all knew that Ye Qiu was going to play Arsenal's soft underbelly.

'They like to attack our ribs, we have to do the other way now, we have to play their ribs as well, Ronaldinho has to pay attention to the ball on the left side, once you get the ball, you use your individual ability, cut in from the ribs, create a combination between Lauren and the right centre-back, as long as they make mistakes, it's our chance'

Ronaldinho knows very well that Ye Qiu wants to act as the tactical core of the team's frontcourt attack, and getting his words, he is equivalent to getting the biggest ball in Chelsea's frontcourt attack, and other teammates have to play around him.

"Drogba should be careful, once Ronaldinho has the ball, you try to lean to the right side, you have your own decision on the specific situation, see if it is Kolo Toure or Ashley Cole, you can pick and pinch them"

"Roger, head," Drogba smiled and nodded his head in assurance.

"Evra should pay attention to moving forward, echo Ronaldinho more, we have to open the situation from the left side" Ye Qiu told the French left-back, Evra is also heavy on attack and light on defense, but because the midfield is too strong, Ye Qiu is not worried about being beaten behind him at all.

'Frank Lampard is on the back side, Gilberto Silva is seriously lacking in fitness, I'm sure it's hard for him to cause you problems, and after Ronaldinho takes the ball and forces Arsenal's defence to show flaws, remember, don't stick to the ball, don't miss the opportunity, pass the ball when you find an opportunity, understand?'

"Understood" the players agreed in unison, especially Ronaldinho.

The Brazilian knows very well that this is Ye Qiu's reminder that using him as the core of the attack is a risk, if he performs well, then Chelsea will also follow suit, but if he is too sticky to the ball, or if he does not perform well, then Chelsea will also suffer because of this.

In the past half of the season, Ronaldinho has used one game after another to prove that he is worthy of Ye Qiu's trust.

Of course, the Brazilian himself knows very well that if he is not worthy of Ye Qiu's trust, then Ye Qiu will not be able to give him a chance.

After arranging the tactics, Ye Qiu looked at the time, and when it was almost over, he slapped a few times.

"Guys" he walked to the middle of the dressing room and drew the attention of all the players to himself, "I can tell you very clearly, I don't want a draw in this game, remember, I don't want a draw, a draw is a loss, you must keep that in mind for me"

Everyone kept nodding their heads when they heard this, Ye Qiu's desire to win was never discounted by who his opponent was, at least on the surface, he never said anything like a draw was good.

"I'm very, very sure that Arsenal's fitness is running out and the next thing you need to do is to use your active running and pressing to limit Arsenal's discovery, disrupt their rhythm, control the game in our hands, then they will be completely at your mercy"

"We have met Arsenal twice in the past six months, both times they were draws, we couldn't even win Arsenal when we had the advantage, I don't want a third time, so I just need to win this game, except for a win, even if it's a draw, it's a defeat for me"

Ye Qiu's excited remarks made everyone present feel his strong desire to win.

Some people say that it is difficult to play away from home in the Champions League knockout round, but Ye Qiu feels that the away game is actually not difficult, but the difficult thing is the first-leg matchup, because the result of the first-leg matchup will seriously affect the second-leg game.

If he loses tonight at Highbury, then in the second leg, he will have to attack as hard as he can, and Arsene Wenger will definitely adopt a strategy of defending to the end, and the outcome of the match will be even more unpredictable.

The draw and an away goal were a good result for Chelsea, but Ye Qiu hoped that the players could fight for more, which was a bit like a sky-high price and repaying the money on the ground, he couldn't tell the players that the draw was not bad, that was a stupid way to boost the morale of the team.

After a pause, Ye Qiu obviously waited for the players to digest his words, and then showed a confident smile, "Guys, I can assure you, I can even swear that as long as we beat Arsenal and advance to the semi-finals, no matter if our opponent is Real Madrid or Monaco, I swear that the team that will appear at Schalke Stadium will definitely be us."

After everyone listened to Ye Qiu's words, they couldn't help but show a longing look, that was the desire to appear on the stage of the Champions League final, and that was the desire to prove their strength again.

Ye Qiu used words such as assurance, oabys, to describe his strong self-confidence, which also greatly infected all the players, allowing them to clearly see how strong the coach's self-confidence is in reaching the final.

Whether it is Real Madrid or Monaco, in Ye Qiu's eyes, it is not as good as the current Chelsea

"Now, I and all of you have only two choices"

Ye Qiu swept over all the players and said word by word, "One, defeat Arsenal, advance to the semi-finals, and finally reach the final, you will become the focus of attention of fans all over the world, become the pride of all Blues fans, and even you will win the first European championship in history for Chelsea; Second, losing to Arsenal has become the laughing stock of countless people, and everyone in the world will laugh at you mercenaries who have no fighting spirit and no fighting spirit."

"We have no other choice, for us there is only one way to go from start to finish this season, and that is to fight until the last second, beat all the opponents, defend our dignity with the facts, and prove our quality with the performances"

'Tonight's game, there is only one winner, either Arsenal or our Chelsea, the winner will get a huge prize, the Champions League and the Premier League, and the loser will definitely pay the most painful price, which is collapse'

When he said this, Ye Qiu raised his head, looked at the player without blinking, and stretched out his right hand, "Tell me, Chelsea warriors, you want to win?" Or is it going to crash? ”

"Victory, Victory, Victory" The players all stood up, overlapped with Ye Qiu's right hand, and shouted in unison.
