How can we win when playing against Arsenal at their home stadium? Li Bin asked himself this question many times before the game started. When he was a fan, because Arsenal played well,
He has watched a lot of Arsenal football, which also makes him well aware of some of Arsenal's problems. When he was a fan, he only wanted to watch the fun, but now as a coach, it seems that Arsenal has many problems, and he
All are available.
Arsenal was the runner-up in the Champions League last season, which was the best result in the history of their club. Arsenal have not yet realized that they have gone downhill, and many of their problems have not yet been summarized -
—And in Li Bin’s memory, they later concluded that the improvement work has never been very good. In my memory, since entering the Champions League final, Arsenal has been in trouble in both the league and the Champions League.
Nothing particularly outstanding. They are used to
They habitually sold their captain in June, and then they played well in the first half of the season and improved a lot compared to last season. It seemed like selling the captain was a good thing. Then after the Christmas game, they started to collapse. By February, almost
All cup competitions were
After being eliminated, the league began to slip out of the championship zone, and they lost hope for a season. But in April, they were full of vitality again, fighting for the top four like a madman, qualifying for the Champions League, selling their captain in June, and next
Let’s start the season light again.
Speaking of which, this game is also in February. To put it bluntly, it is the day when Arsenal collapses again...
Not to mention Arsenal's weird development path in the future, but when it comes to Arsenal's team's playing style, there are many problems that can be summarized. For example, Li Bin has always believed that although Arsenal's tactics are very good, but because of their
The players on the team are too young and lack physical confrontation when playing football, so they always suffer big losses when facing powerful players - for example, Drogba defeated Arsenal's defense.
Treat the line as a delicious snack, and you have to taste it every time they meet. Another example is that their header defense has always had quite a problem, especially the defensive positioning of set pieces. The problem is astonishing. Wenger is
In this regard, the problems are particularly serious. It was not until Steve Bould, a veteran of the defense, became Arsenal's assistant coach that these problems were completely corrected. But now, their defense still has many problems.
Now, these problems are all too clear in Li Bin's eyes. People say that knowing oneself and the enemy can win a hundred battles, but speaking of it, who can know oneself and the enemy better than Li Bin? He knows every shortcoming of these teams.
If he knows it, he can naturally make good use of it.
And if Arsenal has any particularly huge problem that can be easily used by Parma without much need for drills, then naturally it is their biggest problem, the defensive loopholes of the full-backs. Although Clichy is
He is a strong contender for the best left back in the Premier League, but his strength is not as good as his
The senior Ashley Cole is far behind, and can be said to be the biggest shortcoming of Arsenal's defense. Although Eboue on the other side has strong offensive ability, his defensive ability is relatively average. If you have a clear mind,
, he can be reassuring, but there are always a lot of times when he is confused.
If Arsenal had not sold Cole and Laurent last season, Li Bin would have been in a lot of trouble when facing them. However, Arsenal's defense has begun to embark on a desperate path.
Beating them couldn't be easier.
"Both Parma and Arsenal showed high technical and tactical ability from the beginning. Parma's two wings were very tight. They did not let the full-backs advance forward, but let the midfielders press forward.
The opponent's midfielder's defense is quite advanced, and this style of play plays a very good role in containing Arsenal's attacking system."
Arsenal's offense is very beautiful, but the most threatening part of their attack is the direct long pass from the midfield to the frontcourt, and then the frontcourt relies on small cooperation to open up the situation. Cesc Fabregas's long pass has the ability to penetrate forward.
Very good. He can now be regarded as the core of Arsenal's tactics. With his long overhead passes and forward penetration, Arsenal played beautifully. After all, Arsenal's attack is still a variant of the Premier League's 442. He
Their counterattacks can be extremely sharp and beautiful, but overall the inner essence of their playing style has not changed. Fabregas's skills are much more delicate than those of Premier League players, and he can make some small coordination in the midfield and be smooth.
Although the ball is passed quickly, the essence of Arsenal's tactics has not changed. London newspapers said that Arsenal's long pass over the top is one of the three most beautiful scenes in London - it is a long pass over the top, rather than exquisite coordination.
Cesc Fabregas is now well-known, and with his reputation as the number one midfielder in the future, no one dares to underestimate him. But Li Bin has long been aware of his ability to protect the ball and escape after he left Arsenal and returned to Barcelona.
People have always criticized him, saying that he is the number one midfielder in the world, and he has been exalted too much. Li Bin did not care that he suppressed Fabregas in this game, causing him to perform poorly.
In Parma's midfield, Yaya Toure almost never let go of his guard against Fabregas. Every time he got the ball, he immediately started to press him. As long as he got rid of it a little, the defender behind him
Motta immediately came over to pester him and kept pressing him, making it impossible for Fabregas to organize the offensive well. After getting the ball, it was difficult to play well.
Arsenal's attacking system often prefers to attack in the middle, but now, they are blocked by Parma's attack. Parma has accumulated heavy troops in the middle, making their attack impossible.
Of course, this is not all Li Bin wants.
After Fabregas was targeted, their two wingers became the focus of Arsenal's attack. Eboue and Clichy are not weak in assist ability. Li Bin suppressed Fabregas's forward movement.
He penetrated forward and passed the ball, but did not prevent him from splitting the ball and passing back. This gave Eboue and Clichy many opportunities to get the ball. However, Parma's two full-backs had no intention of advancing forward, which also allowed Assen.
Na's wing players began to make moves.
This is Li Bin's original intention. Arsenal is a very strong team at this level, and their offensive power is already very strong. There are many attack points that they can rely on. It will be difficult to block them from all sides. If you really want to do it,
If you arrive, you have to retreat to the backcourt, shrink your lineup, and defend intensively in a small area. If you do that, it is commonly known as setting up a bus.
However, this is Li Bin's first time playing in the Champions League, and playing bussiness is too futile and detrimental to his own reputation. Moreover, Parma has not done much practice in this area, and the turf setting at the Emirates Stadium is in accordance with Arsenal's habits.
Come, Palma wants to set up a bus
It may not be possible to complete it in the away game, so Li Bin still thinks about the confrontation. In the confrontation, it is impossible to block all sides, but if the frontcourt only defends the center, uses superior forces to suppress the midfielder, and then frees up the two wings.
, then it will be much easier.
Wenger watched the ball from the sidelines but did not make many changes. He has never been a coach known for his excellent command from the sidelines. This is also the biggest reason for Li Bin's idea to be implemented. If it were not Wenger but
Mourinho might be able to tell Li Bin's thoughts, but Wenger's reaction would not be too sharp.
Eboue watched the movements of the Parma players and silently calculated his direction in his heart. He ran a few steps forward, got the ball, and gave it to Hleb in front of him, but De Jong on the opposite side
Balzaretti's defense was very tight, making it difficult for Hleb to break through successfully. Eboue looked at the situation in front and suddenly took a step forward to greet Hleb to pass the ball to him.
Hleb passed the ball with one kick. Eboue received the ball, ran a few steps forward, made a long pass, and passed the ball towards the frontcourt. Adebayor rushed to the first point
, he grabbed the header, swung it sideways, and gave the ball to the feet of Henry who was next to him. Henry shot and kicked towards the goal!
Frey fell to the ground quickly. Henry's shooting angle was very tricky, but he still managed to save the ball, which also made him break out in a cold sweat.
Although it is said that Parma deliberately gave Arsenal such a flaw, the players were still shocked that Arsenal could take advantage of it so well and score a goal just so close.
"A good opportunity, a bit of a pity. But fortunately, this also proves that Arsenal seems to have found Parma's defensive weakness..."
The weaknesses that Arsenal found were just those we deliberately sold to them and asked them to attack. However, the problems that Arsenal exposed were already found by me. Your two wingers can intervene at will.
In this way, your side will be exposed in front of our eyes.
While watching the opponent's two wide players attacking, Parma's players were also ready to attack.
Parma passed the ball in the backcourt several times. When it reached Motta's feet again, Motta made a long pass and kicked the ball to Arshavin in the frontcourt. Arshavin deliberately slowed down and lured him in the midfield.
Gilberto came up to grab the ball, and just as he came over, he kicked the ball to the left.
This is the way Parma wants to play: use Arshavin or Motta to separate the wings, and let the players on the wing get the ball and launch an attack. The opponent's full-back is pressing higher. At this time, Rossi can pull the wing
The advantages can be brought into play.
Rossi had already run to the left, and when the ball reached his feet, Eboue had already lost his position and could no longer stand in a good position to intercept his cross. He shoveled out, trying to steal Rossi's ball.
, but Rossi turned over lightly and knocked the ball with his feet at the same time. A beautiful pass passed by and he got out of the way of Eboue's tackle.
Then, he kicked the ball towards the center.
Although Arsenal's two wings can be regarded as loopholes, Li Bin chose to let Rossi go to the left wing. Both Gala and Datu are extremely agile and fast defenders. If they let Rossi go to the left wing,
When Rossi breaks through from the center, the success rate is difficult to say, but if it is passed from the wing, these two defenders are fast but are not good headers, so the quality of the defense is hard to say.
In the central position, Milito had already reached the position. He and Gala jumped up together, but Milito occupied the advantageous position very well. When the football came over, he almost jumped a head higher than Gala.
The ball flew over, he pressed Gala under him, and with a fierce header, he threw the ball towards the goal.
"Gooooal!! Milito's header scored! Parma's attack is faster and more powerful than we thought. Their strength cannot be underestimated!"
