391. Emirates Stadium 2

Crystal Palace also had some injuries before this game, so I won’t mention the old injured Hills. After the last game, Klose, Stroman and McCarthy were also injured. They could not participate in this game, but other players were not injured. There were many people who could use Wen Sheng. In this game, they could also use all the main players to play, and even let Melo, who had not been back for a long time, sit on the bench.

Oliver whistled, and the game officially kicked off with the cheers of fans.

Wensheng stood on the sidelines wearing a thick down jacket, watching the game intently.

For Arsenal, Crystal Palace is not very prepared for this game. The game against Norwich is a week away from this game, but there are two Christmas holidays in the middle, and the schedule is relatively dense during this period. Wensheng can at most make some arrangements in rotation so that key players such as De Bruyne can get more rest time, but tactical drills are not enough. Think about it, the players' attention cannot be very focused when they see that Christmas has dropped.

What's more, it is precisely because of Arsenal's injury that Wensheng has difficulty guessing Wenger's use of troops.

Wenger generally has to use a four-guard formation, but there are very few full-backs on both sides, and Wensheng cannot be 100% sure Wenger will not change his moves! He remembered that when Conte coached Chelsea, the three-guard formation was very popular, so Wenger copied the three-guard!

Now that he is on the court, Wenger is still using four defenders, but the frontcourt layout is still beyond Wen Sheng's expectations. Rosici and Bernardon are both marginal figures of Arsenal this season.

After Rosici joined Arsenal from Dortmund, she actually had a very high moment of highlights, but later due to constant injuries, her condition slowly declined. Arsenal has become a good player every year, and his partners have changed one after another. In addition, he is now 32 years old. As we all know, 32 in other teams may be considered a year of playing, but it is definitely not for Wenger. The media always says that Wenger is good at cultivating young people, but behind this is the bloody and tears of many veterans?!

It is probably not an exaggeration to give Wenger a nickname as a veteran killer.

This season, Wenger focused on training Ramsey, and the Welsh young player replaced Rosici's position. In the first half of the season, Rosici was only just starting twice in the league due to injury. Today is the third time.

Wensheng doesn't understand why Wenger wants to join Rossicky! He really doesn't understand it very much!

As for Benayon, it was something that Wensheng couldn't figure out. Professors and young player Chamberlain were available. According to Wenger's urine properties, it was more likely to use Chamberlain, but he didn't do much.

The two teams are well-known. After Oliver's whistle sounded, the two sides immediately started fighting. In such cold weather, running as soon as possible is also the best choice for the players.

After reading it for a few minutes, Wensheng felt a clear idea.

Many media praised Wen Sheng for having a keen sense of smell on the spot, which is really not a joke.

However, in five minutes, Wen Sheng felt that Arsenal was deliberately controlling the ball and the speed of passing the ball was not fast.

"Mercury is like you guys start playing this game too?" Wen Sheng sneered in his heart. He understood why Rosici and Bernardon were on the court.

On weekdays, Arsenal is best at attacking mercury, full-backs push up assists, quick transfers in the frontcourt, and single-soldiers fight on the wing to tear open the opponent's defense line. Today, their full-backs cannot push up assists as crazy as before. Wenger's solution is to reduce the speed of transmission and advance slowly, relying on the passing skills of midfielders and Van Persie's super strong point-grabbing ability to win.

In the past, Arsenal relied on speed and wing breakthroughs to create opportunities, but today Wenger's method was to use passes.

If they were not Rosici, but Ramsey, their midfield control would be weakened. Ramsey would not be able to compare with Rosici in terms of control, pass, overall situation, etc. With Rosici, Arteta and Song, Arsenal can at least compete with Crystal Palace in terms of ball control.

When it comes to Bernardon, Wenger should value his experience and passing.

Using these two veterans, adjusting the team's tactics will help Arsenal's not-fast full-back to slowly advance to the frontcourt and put pressure on the Crystal Palace defense line together.

On the contrary, if Wenger used Chamberlain and didn't say anything, this kid would definitely be like Walcott, rushing hard, and then dribbling.

There is Gervinho on the other side, which is also a sprinter.

The two wings fly together and look beautiful, but in fact it is very easy for Arsenal to be unbalanced offense and defense.

Gervinho and Chamberlain rose in the frontcourt, how can the full-back follow up?! What is the amplitude?! How can the midfield provide support?!

Crystal Palace is not a cat or a dog. Once Arsenal concedes the ball in the frontcourt, Arsenal's offense and defense conversion is not fast enough, and it is easy to be backfired by Crystal Palace!

In the past, because full-backs could follow up quickly, Wenger could use attack instead of defense, but now their full-backs are not fast enough, and it is difficult to achieve the goal of using attack instead of defense. There are too many people in the frontcourt, and it is predictable to capsize.

"It's a pity that you are not Barcelona!" Wen Sheng silently regretted Wenger.

Guardiola's team can play extreme control and suppress the opponent in the backcourt, but sorry, Wensheng does not think Arsenal can do this.

At the beginning, the center of gravity of the Crystal Palace midfield was in his own half, which meant to test the opponent.

Now that he has figured out the opponent's idea, Wen Sheng waved his hand and signaled to press the formation. Arsenal wanted to control it, but Wen Sheng would not let them control it as they wished. High-level pressing should be strengthened and Arsenal should be forced to quickly shoot the ball!

Although the players in Crystal Palace are young, they are mostly superstars introduced by Wen Sheng, with strong comprehension. In addition, we have not been standing side by side for a season, most of them have played together for more than a season, experienced the journey of winning the Europa League, and experienced several head-on battles. It is not too much to say that it is like an arm to direct.

Why should the media be optimistic about Crystal Palace before the game? Because Crystal Palace itself is stronger than Arsenal. Based on the value of the German transfer market, Crystal Palace is already one end higher than Arsenal.

This strength gap, coupled with Wenger's arrangement of troops, was just a piece of cake. As soon as Crystal Palace exerted its strength, Arsenal players immediately felt that Alexander was.

Crystal Palace passed the ball very quickly, and the full-back's pressing assists were also very active.

Wensheng was very afraid of Gervinho's speed, but he ignored it at all and encouraged Marjo to actively suppress it, not to care too much about Gervinho.

The effect is very significant.

In the sixth minute, Mkhitaryan cut inside and passed by, and Mertens shot with a shot with a chance, a slight difference!

In the eighth minute, De Bruyne took a corner kick, Matic headed the ball and completed another effective shot!

In the tenth minute, De Bruyne dribbled the ball and forced himself to break through Song, and shot with a strong and heavy shot from the outside of the penalty area and went straight to the dead corner!

No one saved Arsenal's goal!

The unreasonable De Bruyne showed Arsenal players why I am worth 30 million!

There was a lot of cheers on the Crystal Palace substitute, and Lawrence and the others even rushed from the seat to the sidelines.

Wen Sheng is very confident in his team before the game as soon as possible, but the coaching staff members are inevitably worried. Since December, with the intensive schedule, Crystal Palace, with a thin lineup, is in a bad state, not weak when facing strong or weak when facing weak. Under Manchester City's step-by-step pressure, the team lost the Christmas championship. In everyone's eyes, Arsenal is a lean camel and difficult to play. Everyone is worried that the team will not win two consecutive victories.

Now he scored the first goal, which left a big stone in his heart.

Song lowered his head unanimously. The reason why Arsenal has not collapsed this season is based on a central axis. The defender Vermullen, the midfielder Song and forward Van Persie are outstanding. Song has been widely praised by the media this season, believing that Arsenal has finally found a qualified midfielder from Vieira and Gilberto. Song also feels full of strength and confidence, but today he has forced the young De Bruyne to take it. How can this not make him angry and annoyed?
