Chapter 483 Oppression and Counter-Oppression (Daily Transition)
The "five-second rule" does not apply to Li Kang.
Van Dijk calmly directed the midfield, turning the battle into a positional battle.
Why midfield? Not the defence.
Because Liverpool's positional defense has undergone huge changes after the winter window.
The two full-backs no longer push forward...and are crushed head-on by their opponents, but maintain a neat distance from the two central defenders.
Judging from the scene, a few flashes of red were running wildly on the green field.
Who runs?
Three midfielders and Firmino.
Diligent engineer and soldier, hard-working "pseudo-nine, behind" hybrid forward.
...
"Firmino was very timely in helping to defend the right rib!"
"This Liverpool team's defense is so good!"
"Hazard returns the ball and then drives forward!"
"Wow! Li Kang didn't pass the ball through, but moved the ball to the weak side!"
The football left Li Kang's left foot.
A flat and fast micro-arc was drawn in mid-air.
Fabregas is very close to the landing point.
Arnold did not push out. He still kept a distance from Lovren to prevent his ribs from being penetrated.
The person pushing out was midfielder Chamberlain.
"It's an obvious difference."
"Guardiola's team has two full-backs running wildly in positional defense."
"Klopp's team, in positional defense, keeps the two full-backs stationary and lets the midfielder cover the defense."
"It's dangerous, Tuchel sent Chelsea's two central defenders forward in advance!"
...
Chamberlain failed to beat Cesc Fabregas.
The latter unloaded the ball, kicked off, and passed the ball in one go.
The football spun violently and crashed into the Liverpool penalty area.
Rudiger, David Luiz, Diego Costa, three ghosts hit the door!
Game of the Brave.
Tuchel never thought about the consequences of a failed attack and being penetrated by a counterattack.
Three high points, suppressing Van Dijk and Lovren!
Tens of thousands of spectators at Anfield stared intently at the trajectory of the football.
Snapped!
The naked little braised egg fired the first shot of the Blue Army.
The football hit the crossbar and flew out of the baseline...
Rudiger touched his forehead depressedly.
Karius breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's just a little bit different!"
"Chelsea's independent attack is very concise and efficient."
"Li Kang's transfer of strength and weakness is a stroke of genius."
Tuchel raised his hands crazily in the command area, signaling for his disciples to retreat.
Klopp finally entered the state, suppressed his smile and waved his fist excitedly.
...
VIP stands.
Sponsors are happy to hear this.
Liverpool's commercial value has continued to rise in recent years, but it has not completely gotten rid of some light endorsements, such as strollers and instant coffee.
There were rumors.
Liverpool hired Klopp as the team coach not only because of his organizational and coaching abilities.
There is also business planning.
Every week, Klopp's speech at the club will be copied and sent to many well-known large companies for internal reference and exchange.
Fenway Group's investment in the club is not high, and most of the funds are used for Anfield's expansion, renovation, and youth training.
In the past two seasons, the value of the Premier League club's lineup has increased: Tottenham is first, and Liverpool is second.
Arsenal and Chelsea are only ranked fifth and sixth because of Li Kang's presence.
Of course, if you look at the whole of Europe, no one's lineup has seen a greater increase in value than Leverkusen in the 15-16 season.
...
Take advantage of the dead ball phase.
Li Kang and Tuchel looked at each other from a distance and made several gestures.
Each understood the other's intentions.
The two Klineshielders are well prepared for this game.
...
"Liverpool's ball possession rate against strong teams after the winter window was particularly high, with the average improving from 40% to 62%."
"The rhythm of the independent attack phase is relaxed and relaxed, and it is not a blind pursuit of speed."
"Klopp probably made the adjustment because he considered that his past style of play was not suitable for multiple lines and multiple battles."
"Mourinho once predicted that if Liverpool's tactical system continues to evolve, it will become a passing team after 2019."
"Tuchel's double center forwards are used here, they are so targeted!"
Liverpool's two full-backs spaced themselves apart.
Karius takes the goal kick.
Short pass.
Leave it to Van Dyke.
Diego Costa quickly pressed forward, and at the same time, Hazard pressed towards Lovren.
The intention of the two was not entirely to grab the ball.
If you want to grab the ball, there can't be only two people.
The real purpose is still to limit the direction and efficiency of the opponent's backcourt ball.
This is one of the meanings of Eternal 4-4-2 restraining KOP4-3-3 in this historical period.
4-2-3-1 won't work.
4-3-3 is too redundant.
3-5-2 is easy to be deceived by Liverpool's offensive focus, and then diverted to penetrate the weak side.
As for changing positions on the defensive end during the football transfer process? It's already too late.
The initial formation and its tactical status in this historical period shine back.
...
Van Dijk passed the ball back to Karius.
Not urgent.
After the winter window of the 2017-18 season, Liverpool was very patient in establishing the offensive phase and did not attack like before.
"Did not let a full-back move in, switching to a three-centre-back pattern."
"The two full-backs stepped forward."
"Midfielder... Emre Can, withdraws to the back line and assists with the ball."
"Liverpool's midfield is probably the most tired position in Europe."
Diego Costa harassed Van Dijk a few times.
The Dutchman remained unmoved and directed the direction of Emre Can's ball.
Snapped.
Finally got the ball out.
The football is passed quickly on the left wing.
Chelsea did not continue to insist on "Game of the Brave".
The defensive focus did not tilt towards the left.
...
Liverpool advanced to the thirty-meter zone.
Wijnaldum was a little confused.
No interference.
I can't find a good path forward for the ball...
He kept observing and discovered that the Blues at this time: the four midfielders widened the interception width, the back line tightened, and it was a terrifying layering!
This silly little black egg looks like he has never read any books, but he was actually a talented and technical midfielder in the Eredivisie.
...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This historical period.
Liverpool's midfielder serves the full-backs.
The two full-backs and center serve the two wingers, or "inside forwards."
"Firmino did not continue to lurk between the two lines and retreated to the outermost edge of the middle of the 14th area."
"Speed up."
"Precise long pass to the side."
"After Arnold unloaded the ball, he walked outside."
"Mane and Salah entered the Chelsea penalty area at the same time."
"It's time to kick the ball."
Snapped!
The trajectory of the football in mid-air was interrupted by a fluffy head!
Mane and Salah had no chance to perform.
A dark shadow passed by.
Kanter!
The French little black egg moved very quickly laterally. After unloading the ball, he immediately passed it to Li Kang.
Chelsea's counterattack is coming!
Klopp, don’t panic!
Don't panic!
In the 17-18 season, Liverpool, in a balanced situation, the three midfielders in the "autonomous offensive phase" are not allowed to advance and participate in the attack.
None of them can.
Work hard as a coolie.
The "switching offensive phase" shines again.
The two full-backs stepped forward.
The midfielder must be in a deep position to assist the high defense and prevent the opponent from making transition attacks.
Bayern fans will definitely be familiar with this scene: 'The fighting form...isn't it basically the reverse melon-style full-back turning into a defensive midfielder?'
The battle form is a replica.
The positions and roles that are valued are different.
...
Li Kang missed the ball, turned around and accelerated... just in time to avoid Wijnaldum's interception!
Panic broke out in the Anfield stands.
The man with black hair and blue clothes on the green field stands out from the crowd.
"The five-second rule!"
"Too late!"
"I can't suppress Li Kang at all!"
"Liverpool's high defense suffered heavy damage!"
Before the double-team between Emre Can and Chamberlain was formed, Li Kang was already facing the back line.
Three-on-two in the frontcourt.
Li Kang, Diego Costa, Hazard VS Lovren, Van Dijk.
...
Sideline.
Klopp raised his hands excitedly, wishing that there was an accelerator button in his hand that could make his disciples get into position instantly.
Tuchel and Dino are already preparing to celebrate in advance.
...
Li Kang made some adjustments.
The body is tilted to the ground.
Aim the inner instep of your right foot at the middle and upper part of the football and strike it.
A rainbow suddenly appeared on the wet turf!
Curved pass to the ground!
At Anfield Stadium, the meager applause was instantly overshadowed by exclamations.
"Leu Fulun...how did Li Kang's scimitar slip through!"
"Azar!"
Lovren's performance in 2017 was poor, but since Van Dijk joined the team, the Croatian's strengths have been stimulated by the Dutchman.
If the opponent sends various overhead kicks, he can always be in the right position and rely on his core strength and body flexibility to deftly resolve them.
More importantly: the recovery area and the scope of activities are expanded.
He's very fast.
Unfortunately, due to multiple injuries to my ankle, I couldn't keep my footing and my brain the moment I started.
...
Hazard faced the ball and observed the positions of Karius and Van Dijk.
It's too late to adjust.
Don't stop the ball.
Shooting furiously!
The moment he touched the football, he felt the essence of Li Kang's pass...it was so comfortable.
Boom!
The football roared towards the upper right corner of the Liverpool gate.
The sound collection equipment then made another crisp sound!
Karius saved the shot!
The crisis has not been resolved.
Got rid of it.
Van Dijk and Diego Costa rushed towards the ball that was out of control at the same time.
One needs to come to the rescue.
One needs a follow-up shot.
"No follow-up shots!"
"Diego Costa leaned sideways against Van Dijk and pushed the ball back with the outside of his foot!"
"Li Kang!"
"Empty door!"
Karius was too late to make a second save.
When he came to his senses, the football had already raised the net on the left side of the goal...
Lee...Lee again.
...
"pretty!"
"The ball is in!"
"Hazard's explosive shot caused Karius' release!"
"Diego Costa's wonderful pass assist!"
"Li Kang succeeded in the empty goal! Capture Anfield!"
"too easy!"
"Chelsea seized this opportunity to switch offense and break the deadlock!"
"Let's watch the goal replay again."
"Li Kang's frontal advancement was too confusing. One person did the work of two people..."
...
Studio.
Barrage flying.
-[Li Kang and Salah will break the Premier League’s 38-round scoring record this season...]
-[The Champions League is obedient, the league is attacking hard!]
-[Different tactical styles, different resource tilts...resulting in different goals scored.]
-[Klopp, don’t think about physical fitness and rhythm, you can’t beat this Chelsea team, just fight with all your strength, otherwise it will snowball to Li Kang.]
-[After the tactics are optimized, there are many advantages. Liverpool's injury rate in the past three months is the lowest in the Premier League. This is all due to improving the ball possession rate and slowing down the pace of independent attack.]
- [Look at this ball. Chelsea is very targeted. They abnormally strengthen their depth and defend in a low position... After winning the ball, they hand it to Li Kang who has a large space to attack Liverpool's weak side.
midfielder.]
...
Li Kang turned back and ran to the bench.
Tuchel's body shook, and he was inexplicably moved: "Does Li want to celebrate with me? Well! It must be his master-disciple relationship with me..."
The Chelsea manager couldn't help but open his arms.
Holding nothing...
Li Kang briefly high-fived the head coach and then pulled out a large tactical board from the coaching bench.
Teammates rushed over one after another.
Everyone sat on the ground, celebrating and discussing the next tactical adjustments.
Dino feeds Li Kang sports drink.
Morata pressed Li Kang's shoulder.
Tuchel was left alone in the sea breeze...
...
far away.
Klopp stared at this scene blankly.
Suddenly I felt that this Chelsea team was a bit scary, and the little time left to celebrate had to be used to discuss tactics.
Will I change or not?
Shake your head and get rid of the complicated thoughts.
The Liverpool coach hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not make any adjustments.
There is still a lot of game time.
be patient.
...
The circle reopens during the game.
Firmino kicked the ball back to Van Dijk.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Chelsea midfielder immediately rushed through the center circle, forming a two-layer pressing network.
The first level is not Diego Costa and Hazard.
But Diego Costa, Li Kang and Kante.
The second level is Hazard and Fabregas.
Didn't press to the edge of the penalty area.
The purpose this time is not to prevent Liverpool from establishing the ball from the back, but to lock their formation forward.
"There are many types of high-position pressing."
"Liverpool's pressing is about counterattacking on the spot."
"Barcelona's pressing is to control the tempo."
"This Chelsea's W-shaped pressing is to seize the initiative in space."
"Liverpool has no way to move the formation forward through short passes at this time. Due to the engineering characteristics of the midfield, they rely more on the high defense line to launch the attack!"
"We have to think of a way."
...
"High-position oppression" and "breaking high-position oppression" are both games for the brave.
Both tendencies are very easy to cause one's own side to concede the ball.
obviously.
Chelsea and Liverpool are both brave men.
Arnold is very brave.
Increase the width.
Received the pass.
Directly send a long pass over the top to find Salah.
The football is spinning in mid-air!
Destroyed by Bakayoko who squatted in the back line!
It was still Kanter who intercepted the football.
The Liverpool players knew with their eyes closed that the little black egg was looking for Li Kang.
After suffering two losses, they couldn't stick to the five-second rule... They chose to quickly return to defense and get into position!
There's no rush.
Klopp roared loudly from the sidelines, and his voice was quickly covered up by the Anfield team song.
He made an exaggerated gesture towards Firmino.
The hybrid shield leader understands this.
The most unusual "false nine" in the history of football will display his defensive support talents in tonight's red-blue battle!
Firmino ran a few steps.
Looking confused at the slowly rolling football and the slow running Chelsea players...
"Very passive!"
"When Liverpool did not implement the five-second rule...Li Kang slowed down the pace."
"The shrinking defensive formation continues to spread out."
"The connection between Li Kang and Fabregas is starting to speed up!"
"Liverpool's dispersed formation continues to shrink..."
"terrible"
"Tuchel and Li Kang fully targeted this tactically optimized Liverpool!"
