Counter-attacking with everything rooted in defense is the most solid tactic, but the downside is that once you fall behind, the team will be very passive.

Mourinho, in particular, also replaced technical midfielder Thiago with Ballack.

Whether it's Ballack, Frank Lampard or Claude Makelele, they are not playmakers, Chelsea have no playmaker in this squad!

Jose Mourinho's thinking was clear, strangling the opposition in midfield, then quickly passing the ball up front, using two sharp wingers to burst forward quickly, while Drogba, Ballack and Frank Lampard, the three powerful men with a strong impact in the middle, were empty without the ball.

Two fast horses, three strong men, the impact of this attack lineup is very strong, but the premise is to be able to rush up, just like Chen Mo, get enough space to rush up!

And with the referee's whistle blowing, after the game restarted, under the watchful eyes of the audience, Chen Mo commanded the Arsenal team to sit directly in the 30-meter area of his own penalty area, and at the same time he himself retreated to the back position, forming three back waists!

Thierry Henry, Olivier Giroud, Di Maria.

Essien, Chen Mo, Mascherano.

Bale, Chiellini, Samuel, McConn.

Bale and McCone are both deft speed players, moving laterally and turning quickly, with wingers like Robben and Duff in perfect alignment.

Chiellini and Samuel are not tall, one is 1.86 meters, the other is 1.82 meters, and their ability to defend against headers is not enough, Chen Mo understands this, and his position is even further back than Essien and Xiao Ma, almost completely standing at the top of the arc, using his bounce to make up for the air defense.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Wenger really built the team completely with Chen Mo as the core, and even the back line was completely built according to his characteristics."

"Haha, of course, Mr. Wenger and Arsenal rejected Real Madrid's terrifying offer of 90 million euros this summer to keep Chen Mo, naturally they don't want him to be a supporting role.

But in fact, it was a bit helpless, I read the news before, Mr. Wenger originally looked at the defender of Sevilla's Ramos, but Ramos finally accepted Real Madrid's invitation. ”

"Ramos? Oh, speaking of this, I remembered, I saw a La Liga news a few years ago, when the Barcelona U15 youth team and Sevilla U15 youth team played a match, but in that game, Chen Mo broke the opponent's three teeth and was banned for ten games, and the one who was broken seemed to be Ramos. ”

"Haha, and this one? No wonder they won't go to Arsenal. ”

Time ticked by as the game drew to a close, and even Frank Lampard and Ballack, who had been worried about being counter-attacked by Chen, began to frequently attack the Arsenal penalty area.

The results are outstanding.

Even if Chen Mo retreats, it is still very difficult for this Arsenal backline to prevent the bombardment of Drogba, Robben, Lampard and Ballack and others, and Chelsea is giving more and more physical confrontations.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Lampard's long-range shot was saved by the goalkeeper, and Chiellini, who got the first landing point, sent the ball to Chen Mo's feet to counterattack, but Chen Mo was directly hugged to the ground by Lampard before he could rush up.

Obviously, a tactical foul did not allow Arsenal to play a quick counter-attack.

Not only Lampard, in the 85th minute of the game, Robben shook Bale on the side and crossed, Drogba jumped high and headed the ball and was saved again, and McCone on the side also looked for Chen Mo as soon as he got the ball, but it was still the same as a few minutes ago, Chen Mo was viciously put down by central defender Carvalho just after taking the ball.

Carvalho was booked, but Arsenal's counter-attack was unsuccessful.

"Honestly. Although this style of play is ugly, the effect is actually quite good. ”

Indeed, without Vieira, almost all of the Arsenal team's balls in the transition between attack and defense were completed by Chen Mo, although Ballack received a yellow card, but the game was almost over. As long as they can catch Arsenal at the last minute, even if they get two more yellow cards, Chelsea will be worth it. ”

The commentary chattered, on the sidelines, ignoring Wenger's cross-eyebrows and cold faces, Mourinho pinched his chin and paced back and forth on the sidelines.

Now the Premier League is Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea.

Although the weak teams in the Premier League often beat the strong teams in an upset, this is when the advantage of defensive counter-attacks will come out.

Chelsea won the title last season with 95 points and conceded the fewest goals in a single season in Europe, all because Mourinho put a strong emphasis on defence.

Defensively strong teams tend to be upset very rarely, and even without one of Ballack or Frank Lampard, it is a dull draw at best, and if they lose at home to Arsenal, they will be in trouble later.

Three points can directly determine the championship in many cases!

Mourinho was thinking about countermeasures in his mind, and the situation on the field became more and more ugly, and almost as soon as Chen Mo took the ball, he would be fouled immediately.

It's costly, but it works well.

Arsenal's counter-attacking effort was completely shredded after Chelsea paid four yellow cards in ten minutes to stop Chen, and Chelsea levelled the scores as Didier Drogba snatched a penalty in stoppage time and the referee blew three end-of-game whistles.

[Jose Mourinho: Yes, we did some extraordinary things in the final stages of the game, but these were all within the rules of football, our players didn't do any hurtful actions, and they were punished accordingly, so I don't think it's something to be ashamed of. 】

[Arsene Wenger's post-match interview: Xiao Mo looks a little isolated on the field? ] I don't want to lie, it's true that we didn't help him very much in this game.

When he went to play his most dangerous midfielder, there was little way for the team to get the ball to his feet. Well, Arsenal don't like draws and defeats, but everyone knows that we have gone through a lot of changes this summer, are in a rebuilding period, and with the summer window not closed, we have more time to adjust. 】

[Guardiola was interviewed: Well, as long as you give Xiao Mo enough space, you're finished. No, no, no, it's not just the impact, there are a lot of players with strong impact, but Xiao Mo is a very special one, and everything he shows is much more exaggerated than you guys on TV!

Not only can he get past several people, but he can also get the ball to other players at crucial moments. Get close to the defence, he'll get straight past you, let go of the distance to defend the break, he'll get space to pass again, did you see that outside instep pass that he made in the Champions League final?

Give him space and you're screwed, which is why many players struggle to defend against him, but now Arsenal's problem is also obvious, they lack a player who can pass the ball to the feet of Xiao Mo, and it is difficult for either Essien or Mascherano to replace Vieira.

A return to Barça? No, no, no, it's not for sure, I have the idea of becoming a coach, but I haven't decided whether I want to go back to Barça. 】
