Tottenham Hotspur beat this season's title rivals Liverpool 2-0 in the Community Shield, which also made the British media feel both relieved and helpless.

The good news is that Tottenham Hotspur have been the benchmark in the Premier League over the past few seasons, and Tottenham Hotspur continue to perform at this high level, which means they will be able to continue to perform well in the Champions League this season, and even continue to perform at the highest level in the Premier League.

The helpless reason is that the stronger Tottenham Hotspur is, the less suspenseful the Premier League title is.

Some people say that the Premier League has begun to enter the era of oligarchs, and Tottenham Hotspur is the first oligarch to emerge, because he has completed five consecutive Premier League titles in the past five seasons, and teams such as Liverpool and Manchester City could become the second and third oligarchs at any time.

But Wenger doesn't see it that way, the new season of Arsenal can be described as ambitious, but the time has entered August, claiming to have 70 million pounds in his hands, so that all Gunners fans have a fierce climax for a while, only to find that the team's 70 million pounds are not spent a penny.

Arsene Wenger, who watched the match at Wembley Stadium live, pointed out in an interview with the media after the game, "Tottenham's victory will cover up a lot of problems, such as the aging of Andrea Pirlo, and I believe no media will notice this after the game!" ”

In fact, Wenger is right, almost all the media after the game are all praise for Tottenham Hotspur, and even Pirlo is mostly praised, but it ignores a very important point, that is, Pirlo's state has indeed declined a lot compared with the previous two seasons.

Of course, this can also be explained by the fact that they participated in the Confederations Cup in the summer.

When Ye Qiu heard Wenger's remarks about Pirlo, he immediately retorted, "We should have more expectations and patience for him, there is no doubt that he is thirty-four years old, we can no longer ask him to run as recklessly as a young man, but I believe that he can do more things that young people can't, such as his passing." ”

Ye Qiu also revealed that Tottenham Hotspur has been making physical adjustments for him since he returned from Pirlo to help him better adjust his condition, but Ye Qiu also emphasized once again that because the team will continue to fight on multiple fronts, it is imperative for Pirlo and even the entire midfield to rotate.

This also reflects Ye Qiu's attitude towards the renewal of the midfield, Pirlo down, Matic and Strot, this is the inevitable result, but the process can't be too fast, and it can't be too hasty.

Many media also predicted the Premier League title race in the new season after this game, believing that Tottenham Hotspur is still the favorite to win the championship, but the advantage is not as big as the previous two seasons, but considering that this will be Ye Qiu's last season in charge, the possibility of winning the championship is still very high.

"For the last 20 years or so, when you talk about English football, you have to talk about Manchester United, you have to talk about Ferguson, and over the last two decades or so, Ferguson seems to have become synonymous with English football."

"But Ferguson has retired, and the halo hanging over Manchester United's head seems to be dimmed, but football has never lacked influential heroes, no lack of legends, so Ye Qiu and his Tottenham Hotspur were born, the Premier League set a record five consecutive championships, and successfully defended the Champions League twice in six years, this report card is enough to make Tottenham Hotspur synonymous with the Premier League in the new century!"

"In the last few years, everyone has said that the Premier League is starting to enter the Tottenham Hotspur era, but we think that Tottenham Hotspur needs to cross a threshold if they want to do this, and that is Ye Qiu!"

"Everybody thinks, Mauro? Tasotti will become the natural successor of Ye Qiu, this culture from the boot room, has a successful precedent in Liverpool, Ajax and other teams, and there is no one better than Mauro? Tasotti is more familiar with and understands Tottenham Hotspur, and Ye Qiu has also been consciously cultivating Mauro in the past few years? Tassotti came to take over. ”

"But we all know very well that Tottenham Hotspur has left a very deep imprint on their bodies and souls."

"This is Ye Qiu's last season, but it is Mourinho's second season back in the Premier League, Manuel Pellegrini's first season in the Premier League, and Moyes' first season in the giants......"

"Perhaps, in many years' time, we will look back and find the legend of this season!"

Under the overwhelming publicity of the media and the expectations of countless fans around the world, the new season of the Premier League finally kicked off slowly, as the opening game, Liverpool won 1:0 at home to Stoke City with Sturridge's goal.

Benitez's team just suffered a defeat in the Community Shield, so in this game, Bei Fatzi focuses on stability, after all, the league does not seek to enter the state too early, but seeks to enter the league rhythm steadily.

But it was claimed to have 70 million pounds, but it was later raised to 80 million pounds, but so far for more than two months, Arsenal, which has not spent a penny, suffered a humiliating humiliation at the Emirates Stadium in the first round of the league, losing 1:3 to Aston Villa, and Belgian center Benteke scored twice.

Belgium is indeed a bit of a strange country, it is sandwiched between Germany and France, after crossing the English Channel, facing England, and next to it there is a Netherlands, whether it is Germany, France, England or the Netherlands, they all have a very clear and clear national culture and characteristics.

But Belgium has always given people the impression of soy sauce, but the headquarters of the European Union is in Belgium.

In fact, Belgium is a bit like the low-key prince of Europe, and their culture was once splendid, but it was an explosion after a long period of precipitation and accumulation, and then it fell silent again.

The same is true of Belgian football, they used to be the Red Devils in Europe, but in the past period, they did not have too impressive stars, but the football in this country, like their culture, is low-key and introverted, and after the accumulation and precipitation of the past few decades, Belgian football has begun to usher in an explosion.

Today's Belgian football talent is abundant, Tottenham Hotspur has Kompany and Hazzard in the team, and Andreas in the youth team? Pereira, Januzaj and Yuri? With the addition of Thibaut Courtois on loan, Tottenham Hotspur have a large number of Belgian players.

This also has something to do with Tottenham's early focus on Belgium, where Anderlecht is currently a partner of Tottenham Hotspur, a team that has been scavenging for young talent in Belgium and providing a steady supply of talent for Europe's top five leagues.

Like Romelu Lukaku, Benteke, Dembele, Witsel, Marouane Fellaini, Vermaelen...... Belgium's talent surge is set to make a comeback for the European Red Devils, and hopefully even a big one.

This time, it was Belgian center forward Benteke who killed Arsenal!

Arsene Wenger and Arsenal issued a request to Aston Villa after the game in line with the positive attitude that I can't beat you, I will dig into the wall and kill you, but Aston Villa clearly marked the price, don't knock on the door if you don't have 30 million pounds.

This frightened Arsenal to the point where he stretched out his hand halfway and quickly retracted it.

But it's no wonder that Witsel transferred from Benfica to Zenit for a transfer fee of 40 million euros, and he still transferred from the Portuguese Super League to Russia, as a player like Benteke who has proven himself in the Premier League, the transfer fee is too low, it is indeed a little unreasonable, and the center forward is only 22 years old.

While Arsenal were hesitating whether to get Benteke off, Tottenham Hotspur's first round of the league was away to south London side Crystal Palace, and this time Tottenham Hotspur beat Crystal Palace 5-0 away, laying a solid foundation for the start of the new season.

In this game at Selhurst Stadium, the veteran Andrea Pirlo, who was regarded by the media as a cold bet before the game, and the team's new signing Lewandowski became the absolute protagonists of the team.

Crystal Palace played at home, in the first half hour, Crystal Palace used their tenacity and pressing to create a lot of trouble for Tottenham Hotspur, but at the critical moment, Pirlo was exquisitely plugged, Lewandowski took the ball in the penalty area and turned around and hit the goal, all in one go, opening the scoring for Tottenham Hotspur.

And just two minutes later, it was Pirlo's diagonal pass, Ribery broke through on the left side and crossed low, Messi inserted the goal and scored, 2:0!

After that, Crystal Palace adopted a rigid strategy, and made two substitutions in a row at halftime, all of which were mainly to strengthen the defense, but Pirlo's long pass over the top shortly after the start of the second half, and Lewandowski's volley after rushing into the penalty area, made another goal for Tottenham Hotspur, 3:0!

Crystal Palace became less and less physical as time went by, and in the last half hour, it was almost pressed by Tottenham Hotspur, and the successive goals of Ribery and Ramsey helped Tottenham Hotspur finally lock the score at 5:0!

The start of the league season was a good start, and Tottenham Hotspur won a full house of applause.

But at the same time, Manchester United beat Swansea 4-1 away, Manchester City beat Newcastle 4-0 at home, Chelsea beat Hull City 2-0 at home, West Ham United beat Cardiff 2-0 at home, and several of the Premier League's powerhouses played well in the first round of the league, with only Arsenal losing at home.

After playing the first round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur will participate in the UEFA Super Cup, so the third round of the Premier League has been adjusted to midweek, and in the third round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur will challenge Arsenal away.

…………

…………

The Emirates Stadium, for the past few seasons, has been a favourite for Tottenham Hotspur.

Arsenal's north London game, strictly speaking, can no longer be called north London, because Tottenham Hotspur have already moved south to Stratford in the heart of the city, and more seriously, it is a London derby.

Before this London derby, Arsenal announced the introduction of German star Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for more than 40 million pounds, which is also a major signing that Arsenal finally made this season after several smoke bombs.

Arsene Wenger is also in this game and can't wait to arrange for Ozil to start, hoping to use the German star to impact Tottenham Hotspur's position, kill Tottenham Hotspur at his home stadium, and win this London derby.

Ye Qiu made adjustments to this game, Tottenham Hotspur's goalkeeper and backline did not change much, Ye Qiu replaced Kyle with Azpilicueta? Walker, but in the midfield, it has been adjusted, Matic replaced Pirlo to start, Vidal became Matic's midfield partner, the front is Hazard, Messi, Ribery, the forward is Lewandowski, Tottenham Hotspur changed the 4231 tactic.

For Tottenham Hotspur's change of formation, before the game started, everyone who got the starting lineup was surprised, because after taking Pirlo, Ye Qiu did not arrange Ramsey, an increasingly creative and passing midfielder, but took him down.

But many people are also surprised that Ye Qiu is not conservative, because he won a midfielder and replaced him with a player with excellent wing assault ability like Hazzard, which made him set a tone for this game, that is, attack!

From the start of the game, Tottenham Hotspur surprised many who thought they would lose their creativity, as they found that Tottenham Hotspur were not playing conservatively, on the contrary, they were constantly attacking, and the two-back midfield configuration was interesting.

Relatively speaking, Vidal is on the right, Matic is on the left, the former is pressed forward, the latter is dragging behind, and the coverage area of both players is very wide, especially Vidal, who frequently presses to the front of the opponent's penalty area and responds next to Messi, and once he loses the ball, he immediately puts in the counter-robbery, making him look less like a midfielder, but like a frontcourt player.

Similarly, Tottenham's defence is less pressing, more in the middle line.

Arsenal's midfield for this game arranged the four-midfield combination of Flamini, Wilshere, Rosicky and Cazorla, but from the beginning, they were pressed by Tottenham Hotspur in their own half, in this area, Tottenham Hotspur do not fight for possession, once they grab the ball, they launch attacks, and Arsenal, although they have possession, they find that the more possession, the more dangerous it is.

Fast is everyone's first impression of this game.

Arsenal was quick on the ball, and Tottenham Hotspur pressed and counter-attacked very quickly, because it was played in Arsenal's half.

Nemanja Matic was the team's defender at the back, and Marcelo and Cesar Azpilicueta on both flanks pressed up, making it almost impossible for Arsenal to get the ball into Tottenham's half, and more often than not, with long balls.

But with a long pass to Tottenham Hotspur's half, Arsenal didn't have the slightest advantage.

In this case, Arsenal looked like they were being crushed by Tottenham Hotspur in their own half.

In the sixteenth minute, Hazard faced Jenkinson, crossed after completing the breakthrough one-on-one, Lewandowski nodded the ball in front of the ferry, Ribery volleyed at the back point, and the ball went into the net, 1:0!

After that, Arsenal quickly stabilized their position, but still could not find a way to break the Tottenham Hotspur cage, they were difficult to resist, because the pressure in the front of Tottenham Hotspur, especially Vidal's wide range of running and tackling, and Nemanja Matic's delayed interception and blocking, made it difficult for Arsenal's passes to penetrate in front of Tottenham Hotspur's defense to create a threat.

In this case, Arsenal can only play more defensively.

However, in the 30th minute, after Matic cut off the ball at Wilshere's feet, he gave it to Messi, and after the Argentine turned around with his back to get rid of the breakthrough, he plugged into the right rib of the penalty area, and it was Ribery who inserted it, and after getting rid of Gibbs, in the right corner of the penalty area, he directly hit the goal at 45 degrees, and penetrated Arsenal's goal again, 2:0!

But in less than five minutes, Vidal returned to the ball and Thiago? Silva made a long diagonal pass, Hazard broke through on the left side and crossed the penalty area low, Lewandowski grabbed the point in front of the goal and scored, 3:0!

Tottenham Hotspur comfortably took a three-goal lead throughout the first half, with Arsenal barely putting up any resistance in front of Tottenham Hotspur.

Those who were skeptical and apprehensive about Tottenham's change before the game are now surprised to find that Tottenham Hotspur have once again presented a completely different style than before, they are faster, sharper and more deadly.

At first glance, they seem to be a bit passive, for example, they don't have a lot of possession and start looking for opportunities to score once the ball is broken, which makes the game fast-paced, but the problem is that they don't seem to have possession of the ball, but they are firmly in control.

Arsenal had 49 possession in the first half. 2%, it seems to be evenly divided, but in the first half, Arsenal didn't even have a chance to shoot towards the goal, only two waves, but Tottenham Hotspur, who hit eighteen shots in the half, such shooting efficiency is amazing.

Nemanja Matic is not Pirlo, he is faster and more concise, the ball hardly stops at his feet, as soon as he gets the ball he spins out, he is more like a perpetual motion machine, he keeps running, he keeps moving, he runs a distance of up to thirteen kilometers throughout the game, the ball is passed immediately at his feet, he maintains a very calm and rational mental state all the time.

'He's completely dominated the entire Tottenham midfield, whoever gets into this area, Nemanja Matic takes his breath away, he's a horribly calm player!'

Richard, who is in charge of the narration? Keith said with emotion, "As early as Southampton, we were clearly aware that Matic has the potential to become a top midfielder, but when we came to Tottenham Hotspur, we found that what he showed was already the level of a top midfielder, because in this powerful tactical system, and the surrounding star teammates, Matic's burst of strength is indeed amazing!" ”

After all that is said, Richard? Keith laughed teasingly, "I don't know what Mourinho, who sat in the stands to spy on the military situation in this game, will feel when he sees Matic's performance in the first half at this moment?" ”

The live TV footage really gave Mourinho a close-up, but the Portuguese's face was calm.

But in the eyes of many people, this calmness itself is a kind of non-calmness! Na had 49 possession in the first half. 2%, it seems to be evenly divided, but in the first half, Arsenal didn't even have a chance to shoot towards the goal, only two waves, but Tottenham Hotspur, who hit eighteen shots in the half, such shooting efficiency is amazing.
