Chapter 261: Who is Messi? (4K)
In order to suppress Chen Mo, most of the teams that play offensive football face Arsenal, either with a double back of 433 or a 442 diamond midfielder.
The 442 diamond-shaped midfield is characterized by a large number of people in the middle, not only has a stronger sense of hierarchy when defending, but also has more contact points when attacking, which is more convenient to organize passing and cutting, and can better deal with pressing.
As Manchester United changed formations, Arsenal's possession began to plummet.
No way, except for Park Ji-sung, a rookie who has just landed in the Premier League, Xiaofa, Davies, Ronaldo and the players in Manchester United's backline are very good.
However, Chen Mo is not in a hurry, although they can't grab the ball, it is difficult for Manchester United to launch an effective offensive.
The diamond-shaped midfield gives more advantage to the middle at the cost of weakening the attacking ability of the wings, and now Arsenal are three goals ahead, and it is Manchester United who are dragging it down.
It was clear that United were in a hurry, after all, there were only three minutes of stoppage time, and all the players were hoping to pull a goal back before the end of the first half, and the running began to become more aggressive, and the tempo of attack and defense was faster.
The effect is not bad.
In the final stage of stoppage time, Davis, who had been dragging in the back position, ventured forward, received a direct plug from Xiaofa and advanced with the ball, attracting the defense of Little Brother and then splitting the ball to Ronaldo on the left side.
The latter took the ball and cut across the top of the arc to attract Samuel to the top, but in the face of Ruud van Nistelrooy, who had already got a one-on-one opportunity in the penalty area, Ronaldo did not choose to pass the penalty area, but directly hit the top of the arc with a blast.
The quality is good, and the knock on the doorpost is ringing.
Eventually, in the roar of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the first half of the game ended.
With a 3-0 lead over Manchester United at half-time, the whole team was very excited, but under the comfort of Chen Mo and Henry, the mood gradually returned to stability.
After all, in last season's Champions League final, the two of them had the experience of being almost killed by AC Milan in the last two minutes.
The whole team is on alert!
But after the start of the second half, things developed completely beyond Chen Mo's expectations.
I don't know what happened in the Manchester United team at half-time, the main center forward Ruud van Nistelrooy was replaced by Ferguson with Robin van Persie.
Ruud van Nistelrooy was sitting on the bench with his head bowed and his fingers played, and the Manchester United players, who were clearly aggressive at the end of the first half, looked very sluggish at the start of the second half.
"Quarrelsome?"
Watching Xiaofa ask for the ball in the midfield, Ronaldo chose to break through by himself, and was finally destroyed by a sliding tackle by Brother Xiaoma, Chen Mo, who was not far away, raised his eyebrows.
As far as he knows, there are a lot of contradictions in this Manchester United team.
Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ronaldo don't like each other, both are very egoistic players, and Ruud van Nistelrooy is 29 years old and Ronaldo is 20 years old.
The former is the golden age of the center, and the latter needs more goals to increase his value, this kind of thing is usually the big brother in the team to come forward to stabilize the situation, but the relationship between Keane and Ferguson is also very stiff.
Some time ago, there was news that Keane was almost kicked out of Manchester United by Ferguson, and even now, when the summer window is about to close, Ferguson has not offered Keane a contract extension.
Moreover, Xiaofa and Ronaldo's style of play are also somewhat incompatible.
Xiaofa, who was born in La Masia, likes to play short passes and uses organizational passes to mobilize the opponent's defense, but Ronaldo prefers to advance with the ball himself.
When the ball reaches his feet, his first choice is to go it alone and pass the ball when he can't find an opportunity, which causes the team's passing rhythm to become sluggish.
It's not that Ronaldo's style of play is not good, Chelsea's Arjen Robben and Duff are also this type of players, it's just that he and Xiaofa's style of play is not the same type, and he can't pee a pot.
And to put it mildly, as a rich second generation who is not short of money, Xiaofa left Barcelona in order to become the absolute core of a team, but after coming to Manchester United.
During the dinner, Xiaofa even complained to him Chen Mo that "that guy must be Ferguson's illegitimate son".
This Manchester United team looks great on paper, but in reality it is a mess.
Everyone has their own thoughts, it's okay to kick a weak team, but once you encounter a tough battle, there will be problems immediately, which is actually very similar to the big Paris in a certain time and space.
The conflict in the Manchester United team Chen Mo was not interested and continued to play honestly, but as the game continued, he gradually became bored.
When you play football, you can pass the ball to your teammates, and the next time your teammates come back, the atmosphere will gradually improve, but after passing the ball to your teammates a few times and finding that the opponent doesn't hold it at all, people's motivation will be hit hard.
Soon, United's passing and cutting links were getting worse and worse, and there were more and more mistakes.
With Di Maria's cross from the right in the 83rd minute of the game, Giroud's header rewrote the score to 4-0, and the game completely lost suspense.

[Four to zero!] Arsenal thrashed Manchester United 4-0 at home! Henry wears a hat! 】
[Manchester United infighting! According to journalist Romero, there was a fierce quarrel in the Manchester United team after the match with Arsenal, and the protagonists of this quarrel were Cristiano and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and the two sides had a very heated physical exchange in the dressing room! 】
[Arsenal rebuild? (X), Manchester United rebuild! (√)!
Large earthquake! The latest news, Manchester United are interested in selling Ruud van Nistelrooy before the summer window closes to pave the way for Cristiano! Meanwhile, Keane, who has been with Manchester United for 12 years, is also hoping to find a new club before the end of the summer window! 】
The 4-0 win over Manchester United was expected to cause a sensation, but the news Chen Mo saw the next morning was overwhelmingly related to Manchester United's infighting.
Manchester United's infighting has nothing to do with him Chen Mo, just call to greet Xiaofa, and then leave it behind and ignore it.
On the third day after the game against Manchester United, he celebrated his 18th birthday.
Birthday?
Serious people who celebrate their birthdays.
He said that he was not interested, but Di Maria and Henry were very enthusiastic, and they had to hold some birthday party, and they couldn't stand the other party's enthusiasm, so they agreed.
There are no activities that are drunk and drunk, although he Chen Mo occasionally drinks some wine in the offseason to help the fun, but he is not very interested in wine, and the birthday party is mainly to play live, grill steak in the yard, play kickball, chat, watch TV series, and the atmosphere is also very relaxed and happy.
But the happiest person here is not Chen Mo, but Henry.
Henry is twenty-nine years old and is a speedy striker again.
The hallmark of a speed-type striker is that he is strong at his peak, and he can play a lot of famous scenes, but most of them are injuries, and his ability will decline greatly as his physical function declines around the age of 30.
At his age, he doesn't have a few years to pursue the highest honours, and staying at Arsenal in the rebuilding period this summer was a very difficult decision for him, but he never expected the team to find form so quickly!
Not only Henry was happy, but the whole team was happy, and a group of people were noisy and playful until the middle of the night.
The first half is over, and the second half will naturally continue, tonight Yuechi Kaoru is exceptionally strong, Chen Mo, who has always liked to be a knight, has become a sweaty BMW.
There were also some small episodes along the way, such as Messi calling to wish him a happy birthday, he originally wanted to catch up on the old days, but the little trick of Kaoru Yuechi's newly learned [Sandwich Welcome] made Chen Mo, who was answering the phone, tremble.
Messi?
Who is Messi?
Just hang up the phone.
At noon the next day, Chen Mo, who had rarely slept lazily, stretched his waist and glanced at Kaoru Tsukichi who was only wearing a white backless apron and standing on the balcony frying steaks, he was a little excited, but the newspaper on the bedside table attracted his attention.
Open it and take a look at the title, [2005 Golden Ball Award 30 Shortlist, Henry, Ronaldinho, Chen Mo, Messi, Kaka], [2005 FIFA World Footballer of the Year 3 Shortlist, Henry, Ronaldinho, Chen Mo. 】
"It's time for the awards."
Chen Mo glanced at the newspaper and threw it back on the bedside table, leaning on the soft pillow with his hands on the back of his head.
The World Footballer of the Year and Ballon d'Or are the highest individual accolades in football.
The difference is that the predecessor of the World Footballer of the Year is the world's best player who has been awarded since 1982.
Later, in 1991, FIFA changed it to "World Footballer of the Year", and the selection rules were based on the voting of the head coach and captain of each national team.
The Ballon d'Or is a football award founded by France Football magazine in 1956, and the voter has changed from the head coach of the national team to professional football journalists from all over the world.
Chen Mo guessed that it was unlikely that he would win the award this year.
Henry is the same as him at club level than team honours, but in the national team, Henry played in the European Championship.
Although he didn't win the championship, he also scored goals, and he also won the French Footballer of the Year some time ago.
In terms of the national team, Chen Mo only has one World Youth Championship, and the World Youth Championships are not even an international A-level event, so naturally there is no way to compare.
Compared with personal honors, Henry is the European Golden Boot, and Chen Mo's assists ranked among the top two in Europe last season, but unfortunately, there is no European assist king, only a Premier League assist king.
And the award is voted by people, so it is inevitable that it is subjective, he Chen Mo has only been kicked out for a year, Henry and Xiao Luo have been famous for a long time, and they will suffer very much in this regard.
"You can take the best, you can't take it. Just take it later. ”
Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, Chen Mo pursues victory but not trophies.
It was as if the king ruled the country by the army, not by the ornate crown.
For him, even the Champions League trophy is just a trophy obtained after conquering AC Milan, and the role is only to tease Messi.
didn't stop much on the issue of awards, and glanced at Kaoru Yuechi wearing a kitchen dress outside the window, Chen Mo turned over and got out of bed and came to the balcony to turn on the cavalry mode.
As the days went by, Arsenal's schedule was much easier after back-to-back games against Chelsea and Manchester United at the start of the new season, and the next few games were against mid-table teams.
However, things did not develop as simply as expected, in the third round of the Premier League, Arsenal played away against the weak team Middlesbrough, and under the expectation of the public, Arsenal lost 2-3 in this game.
Middlesbrough opened with a direct 541 formation and played a defensive counterattack.
Defensive counterattacks can be said to be the nemesis of a strong team.
For a team like Arsenal who are aiming for the title, they will certainly want to take all three points against the weakers, and for Middlesbrough, a draw is perfectly acceptable.
Arsenal want to win, they have to attack, and it's the kind of attack that the whole team presses, after all, dense defense is not so easy to break.
This will give the opponent the opportunity to play behind, and the long pass is the most test of the back line, but Arsenal's weakest point is the backline.
A draw with Chelsea, a big win over Manchester United, a loss to Middlesbrough and three goals conceded!
Arsene Wenger was angry, but he didn't need to say anything more, as Bale and Chiellini began to practise very consciously.
Just kidding, apart from the poor ghost Arsenal, and that top team is willing to give so many starts to young players around 20?
If he is abandoned by Arsene Wenger, who knows when the next time he can start at the big clubs.
Everyone is training extra hard!
However, their training has nothing to do with Chen Mo, on the contrary, because Chen Mo is the absolute core of Arsenal at present, he must not be injured, and Wenger even limits his training time.
Why don't you let me work overtime?!
I have to work overtime!
The speed attribute in the panel has rushed to 97, and if it rises by two more points, you can get the Maradona card, and Chen Mo doesn't want to stop at all.
However, during an essential oil open, Kaoru Tsukichi, who was kneeling on his back, pinched his left inner thigh muscle and frowned, "You've been practicing too hard lately, it's best to reduce the intensity, otherwise you may have a strain." ”
Strains?!
This is indeed a bluff for Chen Mo, a strain is not a big injury, but the problem is that it is easy to recur again after a strain!
There was no way, Chen Mo had to reduce the frequency of additional training on rest days, but this person has been busy for a long time, and he really can't be idle.
In desperation, on his day off, Chen Mo had to do waist and abdominal exercises at home all day, balcony, window sill, swimming pool, kitchen and toilet, playing games and the like.
Anyway, being idle is idle, but it's also strange to say, it's obvious that he Chen Mo is working hard, but the result is that Yuechi Kaoru's complexion is getting better and better, her figure is getting more and more plump, and her whole body is beginning to exude the charm of a mature woman.
Such a day is very cool and comfortable, but in the end, he is already a world superstar, in addition to football and daily life, Chen Mo still has some business things to deal with.
Okamoto only came to measure the size in the summer, and also filmed commercials, mainly on Adidas' side.
After winning the Champions League three months ago, Adidas had already offered to make a pair of sneakers for him and launched a signature sneaker.
It's just that Chen Mo was preparing for the World Youth Championships and the new season during that time, so he didn't have the heart to beep with Adidas at all, and now that he is a little free, these things naturally have to be dealt with.
Most of the superstar sneakers are custom-made, such as what material to use for the upper, the softness and hardness of the insoles, etc., in short, they are tailored according to the requirements.
As for the signature sneakers, they are the goods that are used to sell.
And he Chen Mo and Messi are not childhood sweethearts, and everyone knows that Messi is also signed under Adidas, and this time Adidas is ready to launch a co-branded custom model.
