Chapter 585 Details determine success or failure

Wenger privately longs for whether the dream of a rich boss falling from the sky can be realized. I don’t know yet, but one thing is very clear, that is, with the current Arsenal lineup, it is difficult to challenge the powerful Tottenham Hotspur.

But if Tottenham Hotspur is in poor form, that's another matter.

Wenger's abacus was also very good when visiting the White Hart Lane Stadium, which was to use Tottenham Hotspur to fight continuously, especially in the two Champions League games, and it was difficult to distinguish with Barcelona. He took this opportunity to lose Tottenham Hotspur in one breath, which was a shame of Yixue's first round of round cycling.

Tottenham Hotspur is in poor form, which can be seen by anyone with eyes. Wenger will naturally not miss it. So the Gunners visited the White Hart Lane Stadium, and at the beginning he launched an abnormal attack flag and kept attacking Tottenham Hotspur's defense line. Tottenham Hotspur, who was fighting at home, adopted a steady defense counterattack tactic.

In this game, Arsenal's starting lineup was goalkeeper Amunya, with Krish, Sylvester, Vermalen and Sarnia in the back line, Arteta and Alexander Song in the midfield, Rosici, Nasri and Walcott in the frontcourt, and Bentner in the single striker.

Ye Qiu was also very careful in this game against Arsenal. He played all the main players, with goalkeepers being Cech, defense lined with Cointran, Kompany, Thiago Silva and Alves, midfielder David Silva, Yaya Toure and Fabregas, and Hazard, Falcao and Messi in the front court.

Ribery played the whole game in the game against Barcelona and played a lot of games in the past few games, which caused her physical fatigue. Peter Brandt suggested to Ye Qiu to let him rest, so Ye Qiu played Hazard in this game.

Falcao is currently Tottenham Hotspur’s number one scorer in the Premier League. His goal this season is no longer the Premier League single-season goal record, but forty Premier League goals, which also makes Falcao the hottest super scorer in European football this season. Almost everyone is surprised by his steady scoring ability.

Wenger obviously learned the mistakes made by Barcelona when he played Tottenham Hotspur. He did not adopt a crazy on-site counterattack tactic because he did not want to repeat Barcelona's mistakes, so he chose to launch a steady attack.

Tottenham Hotspur welcomed Arsenal as if facing a big enemy, but there was no fear at all. Instead, it spread the entire defensive formation and let the two sides go. When Ye Qiu arranged the defense, he emphasized the two full-backs to let Arsenal go down the wing, but prevented them from cutting inward.

As for Arsenal's main center Nicholas Bentner, Ye Qiu knew very well that Wenger used him in the hope that he could exert his dominance in and outside the penalty area last season and his strength to attack the team. However, after a season of tests, it turned out that Bentner failed.

The reason is very simple. He is neither Henry nor Ibrahimovic, but the problem is that he treats himself as Henry and Ibrahimovic.

Whether it is height or technical characteristics, Bentner is very similar to Ibrahimovic, but in terms of ball sense and technical details, the gap between Bentner and Ibrahimovic is really not a little bit, especially in terms of stopping and handling.

Ibrahimovic's biggest advantage is that he is not only skilled, but also good at using his physical fitness to give full play to his physical advantages. In addition, his delicate skills make his ball-handling ability very outstanding and can unscrupulously suppress any defensive player, which is very similar to Drogba.

But Bentner is not. The Danes are as tall as Nordics, but they are not strong enough, have insufficient strength and heading skills. The turn-on start speed is very good among tall players, but he does not take advantage of the central defenders like Thiago Silva and Kompany.

More importantly, Bentner always thought he was Henry, and he didn't like to be entangled in the penalty area. He liked to pull the edge, just like Henry at his peak, pulled the ball to the side and hit the ball, and broke into the penalty area.

Ye Qiu has always felt that personality is a very important part of whether a young player can become a talent.

Just like Messi, although he is very talented, he is also very hard-working in training. More importantly, he has a very modest personality. Like Cristiano Ronaldo, he is very inferior in his bones, so although he seems to be very arrogant, in fact, he has very high requirements for himself. However, this kind of high is not exaggerated high, but he is desperately trying to win everyone and prove himself. This will make him constantly improve his requirements for himself, practice hard, and improve his strength.

In other words, the character of a player is the key factor in determining whether a player has continuous learning and growth.

Bentner's personality obviously does not belong to this type. He performed well last season but had a conflict with Adebayo. When he performed well, he even dared to ask the No. 9 jersey of a broken Croatian player Eduardo da Silva and publicly demanded the team's contract renewal.

Perhaps those who like Bentner will think that this is a player with a lot of confidence, which is a good phenomenon, because Ibrahimovic is also famous for being overconfident. But the problem is that Ibrahimovic's confidence is based on strength, or constantly improving his own strength, and what about Bentner?

Ye Qiu coached Ibrahimovic. He knew very well that although Ibrahimovic was so sarcastic, this kid had a good training attitude. He had a big mouth but he knew very well what he needed to do. As for Bentner, Ye Qiu didn't know.

But in this game, the performance of Arsenal this season was very good, and the performance of Bentner was very bad when it was good, and the performance of Ye Qiu was not seen by Ye Qiu from beginning to end.

The defensive focus of Tottenham Hotspur this game is to suppress Arsenal's midfield center, allowing their ground penetration to pass effectively into Tottenham's threatening area, forcing Arsenal's offense to go more to the wings. Without high center forwards like Adebayo to follow up, is it useful no matter how many crosses are made on the wings?

Therefore, the beginning of this game actually reflected Ye Qiu's intention of targeted play. Arsenal played very active on the wing, both Rosici on the left and Walcott on the right, and they were very active. They got a corner kick in less than a minute of the game.

Then Arsenal also frequently created threats on the wing, and Krish and Sarnia also actively participated in the offense, and the entire offensive became very powerful, while Tottenham Hotspur still organized the defense steadily, so Arsenal's offense looked a bit thunderous and small.

But Arsenal is not Barcelona after all, the Spanish team's offense is very threatening. After all, there are cross-control combinations such as Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets in the midfield, and Iniesta's ball-control ability is also very excellent. Van Persie, Pedro and Alexis Sanchez's trident complementarity is also very strong, making Barcelona's offense very threatening.

These are all things that Arsenal does not have. Whether it is the trident or the midfield, they are obviously inferior to Barcelona.

In this case, Tottenham Hotspur quickly fought back.

In the 12th minute, Arsenal launched an attack, and Bentener pulled to the left to meet Rosici. After getting the pass, the Danes wanted to dribble the ball and cut inside, but was disturbed by Alves. When cutting inside, it was a bit big. Thiago Silva quickly intercepted the ball.

The one aspect of Bentna's better than Ibrahimovic is that he has a higher level of investment in the game and has a more team sense, so after conceding the ball, he immediately made a counter-attack. After Thiago Silva intercepted the ball, he quickly protected the ball, blocked Bentna with his body, and then passed the ball to Alves on the right.

Facing Rosici, Alves kicked the ball forward with one kick, and the man quickly bypassed Rosici and chased after him. He scored a beautiful man and passed the Czech midfielder directly, and then continued to lead the ball to the right.

At this time, Arsenal's entire defense line was retreating rapidly, but Alves was very fast. After crossing the center line, he obviously took an inward diagonal line. Falcao and Messi restrained Arsenal's three defenders who were chasing back. Alexander Song rushed towards Alves immediately and held Alves, and the two competed with speed.

Three defenses and two, and because Alves was close to Alexander Song, Alves couldn't get up, and the distance between him and Falcao and Messi was a bit too large. If the ball was passed at this time, it would basically pass the ball to Arsenal's defender. So Alves saw that he could not get rid of Alexander Song and was even at risk of being intercepted, so he chose to stop urgently.

Just when he saw an emergency stop, Alexander Song rushed a little too far. Although he immediately reacted and caught up again, he still gave Alves some chance to breathe. The Brazilian right-back saw Hazard running from the left to the middle to pick him up.

I was overjoyed, and my first reaction was that this kid was smart enough to know that I and the two teammates in front of me were too long, so Alves immediately passed the ball to Hazard before Alexander Song.

The entire Arsenal midfielder was chasing back quickly. Alves lost his accuracy because he was worried about Alexander Song. He did not pass to his teammates according to Tottenham Hotspur's usual passing standards, but to Hazard.

Arteta was retracing quickly. When he saw the opportunity, he immediately rushed to chase after him as fast as possible, trying to break the ball before Hazard, but the Belgian reacted very quickly. He pulled the ball in front of him with his left foot, causing Arteta to rush over, and then turned around and blocked Nasri, who was catching up with him, and took the ball to the left with his left foot.

This step is very critical. He avoided Nasri's physical entanglement and also got a relaxed opportunity for himself. Even though it was about 30 meters away from the goal, Hazard took the opportunity and observed it again in front of him. He found that there were three teammates in front, namely Falcao, Messi and Alves, but there were six defensive players. If Nasri next to him included, a total of seven Arsenal defensive players were in place.

If anyone else tells Hazard at this time that Arsenal does not pay attention to defense, Hazard will definitely slap him in the face and tell him, is your math taught by the physical education teacher? Don’t know how to count?

There is no chance to pass the ball, because no matter which angle the pass is passed, at least two defensive players are blocking it. This is obviously also the defensive strategy Arsenal has set against Falcao and Messi.

Seeing that there was no chance, Hazard took the dead horse as a living horse and swung his left foot directly, and shot a powerful shot at the ball directly in front of his feet.

The shooting range was very long, and the timing of starting was very sudden, because it was just entering the 30-meter area, so it was really surprising to just take such a kick. And more importantly, if it was Falcao or Messi, I believe that Arsenal defenders would pay more attention, after all, they are Tottenham Hotspur scorers.

But the problem is that Hazard is only 18 years old. Although he has played in Tottenham's first team for two seasons, he should choose to pass the ball to Falcao and Messi, regardless of whether it is based on the ranks or strength and influence. So no one expected that this Belgian young man would make such a kick.

Falcao and Messi were not surprised too much. When they saw Hazard kicking, they rushed towards the goal quickly and prepared to pick up the bargain.

But no one arrived first. Hazard's shot was not very strong, but it was very strong and very fast. Amunia responded, but the ball rubbed against the left post and drilled into the goal.

More than 30,000 Tottenham Hotspur fans at the entire White Hart Lane Stadium were shocked. Did they score the goal like this?

Even the goal-scoring hero Hazard himself was shocked, and he didn't expect the goal to be scored like this.

Nearly thirty meters, such a long shot is simply unbelievable for a young player who is only eighteen years old.

So, after the goal, the Belgian obviously stood there and was stunned for two or three seconds. It was not until Fabregas and others behind him rushed up and hugged him, that he realized that he had scored.

Falcao and Messi also rushed up and hugged Hazard tightly to celebrate his attempts to score such a wonderful world wave.

"A world wave goal from 28 meters away, from Tottenham Hotspur's 18-year-old Belgian winger Eden Hazard. This is a wonderful world wave long shot."

"Eden Hazard, since last season, has gained a foothold in Tottenham's first team. He has been seen as Tottenham's young player Ramsey and local right-back Kyle Walker, and these players have performed very well this season, especially Eden Hazard, who is also remarkable as a substitute on both sides."

"This world wave is very exciting and very sudden. It is obvious that even the players themselves are surprised." Andy Gray obviously joked when commenting, laughing: "But sometimes football is like this. You say he made a fool of himself, but this shot is very good, both from the arc and from the perspective, and he hit the goal with his left foot, which makes him look very smart."

The live broadcast camera repeatedly replays the entire process of Eden Hazard's goal just now. Nasri is approaching him. If he uses his usual right foot to hit the goal, Nasri can make a blocking or tackle directly. So Eden Hazard's cleverness is that he uses his left foot to control the ball and block Nasri on the right side of his body.

"We noticed that Tottenham Hotspur is very smart to handle the details of the ball. We also heard that Tottenham Hotspur has many equipment specifically used to help players handle and calmly deal with these seemingly trivial details on the football field."

"And it is precisely these details that determine the success or failure of a game."

"0 Tottenham Hotspur took the lead at home, and now it's very unfavorable for Arsenal"

Yes, if you can't catch it for a long time, you're penetrated by the opponent's counterattack. Such a blow will definitely be a nightmare for Arsenal. If Ye Qiu doesn't know how to make good use of this advantage, then he is really not Ye Qiu.

I saw Ye Qiu pulling the player to his side while the team was celebrating the goal and loudly explaining the task there.

After the game restarted, Tottenham Hotspur immediately launched a crazy round of pressing against Arsenal, and the defense line was directly pressing forward, clearly trying to take advantage of the goal first and when Arsenal's morale was exhausted, he chased the Gunners.

As it turns out, Arsenal is now in a fragile period, being pressed by Tottenham Hotspur, and their defense immediately became very chaotic. This is also because the cooperation between the two central defenders Vermullen and Sylvester this season is very unfamiliar, resulting in Arsenal's defense being handled poorly in blocking, man-to-man, running and assisting defense.

Arsenal has almost always suffered a complete defeat when encountering strong teams this season. Not to mention not being able to beat Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea both suffered a crushing defeat against Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal is also using Benitez's Liverpool and West Ham United to exclaim.

In this case, Tottenham's relentless pursuit and fierce attack immediately exposed Arsenal's defense weaknesses and shortcomings. When the 23rd point was made, Fabregas made a straight pass behind him. Arsenal wanted to make an offside, but Vermalen dragged in the end, resulting in the failure of the offside trap. Messi got the ball and broke into the penalty area, and Sylvester stepped forward to block it.

The Argentine passed the ball in the middle of the penalty area with a selfless cross. Falcao followed up and easily pushed the ball, piercing through Arsenal's goal again.

0

Falcao's goal almost sentenced Arsenal to death, especially in less than half an hour in the first half, he pierced through Arsenal's goal twice, which hit the Gunners' players with a huge blow. In addition, this group of players themselves have no psychological advantages against strong teams, and their morale is almost bleak.
