At the pre-match press conference, Wenger and Mourinho introduced their starting players respectively. Both sides made some changes. At Arsenal, Bergkamp was replaced by Robin van Persie. The biggest change at Chelsea is that they have "Arsenal".
Drogba, the nemesis, did not start.
"Why didn't Jose arrange for Didier to start?" A reporter quickly grasped this key question.
Mourinho still had that cold face, shook his head and said: "It depends on my tactics, there is nothing to say." Obviously Mourinho did not reveal his trump card so easily.
"Professor, the game is about to begin. What do you think of Mourinho's use of troops?"
"I'm not the manager of Chelsea, so I don't have any opinion?"
The reporters obviously did not expect Wenger and Mourinho to be so cunning and did not reveal anything at all. Obviously at this time, two world-class head coaches would not answer such sensitive questions and both hoped that the interview could end as soon as possible.
Explain tactics to your own team members.
In this way, the two head coaches ended the pre-match press conference...
Arriving in the locker room, Wenger checked that the time was almost up and immediately summoned the players to come in for the final tactical emphasis.
"Robin, in this game you replace Xiao as the right midfielder, and Xiao, you move to the midfielder position and try to get as close to the midfielder as possible. You have a very heavy task. Not only do you have to do Dennis' usual job well, but you also have to try your best to
Delay the time for their backcourt to pass the ball to the frontcourt, and try to protect our midfield.
Gilberto, you must always pay attention to your cooperation with Kolo and Philippe. Kreisso fights very fiercely, and you must try not to lose the ball. The midfielders must try to shoot as fast as possible and don't delay. Thierry, you must also
Properly press for the ball in their backcourt, and the others will do their usual training, do you understand?"
"Well, I got it." The Arsenal players had already been overwhelmed by the news from the outside world and knew the importance of this game.
Wenger saw that the players' emotions were quite high, and he was a little worried. When he saw the players filing out of the locker room, he quickly came to Henry and told him: "Thierry, when you are on the court, pay attention to the emotions of your teammates. Once you
We get impatient and it becomes harder for us to hit the ball."
Henry nodded, knowing that once a player is controlled by his emotions, no matter how good his technique is, it will be of no use.
"Hernand, you have to run more on the court and run with Arsenal's two defenders." Mourinho solemnly asked Crespo. He used Crespo in this game because he wanted to take advantage of it.
On the other hand, his scoring at critical moments was to mobilize Arsenal's two defenders, so that Drogba could be replaced at the next critical moment and use his advantage to destroy Arsenal's already weak defense in one fell swoop.
"Frank, you and a few players in the midfield have to contain the two players in Arsenal's midfield, and Aryan, you have to make full use of your speed and try to shoot from the outside when necessary. Asier, Ke
Lauder, you have to pay attention to Xiao, his breakthrough is the most powerful weapon for Arsenal's offense. Terry, you have to keep an eye on Thierry at all times. He has already scored two goals. Okay, that's it. Everything is according to training.
Do what you say when the time comes and try not to let their ball move." Mourinho applauded and sent his players out of the locker room.
Players from both sides gathered in the aisle, waiting for the news of the referee's entry.
Xiao Ge glanced at Chelsea's starting lineup and didn't find Drogba. He couldn't help but feel stunned. He didn't understand why the Magic Bird didn't use Drogba. This was his usual counterattack blade. But there was no time for Xiao Ge to figure it out.
Soon the referee Webber looked at Henry and Terry and signaled that they could enter the field.
Soon the players from both sides led the ball boys into the stadium, and the whole stadium burst into deafening cheers. The Stanford Stadium had become a blue ocean, with jerseys, placards, and avatars shaking densely. The whole stadium was like
The huge blue beast is devouring endless fans, making people feel insignificant.
At this time, Henry and Terry once again guessed the coin. Unfortunately, this time they were not so lucky. Terry had the ball and the attack direction was from north to south.
Soon the players from both sides were in position, waiting for Weber's whistle. At this time, the formations of the two sides were also displayed on the entire court.
"It's so scary. There are more people here than in Highbury." Emma, who had already entered the venue, stuck out her tongue cutely to Nangong Ziyu who was standing aside.
"Dear viewers, I am your Senke. This time I am reporting to you from Stanford Stadium. Now I will introduce to you our players: Thierry..."
"Hi, fans, I am your Lars. We would like to introduce our soldiers of the Blue Army: Petr Cech..."
Soon the on-site commentators had finished introducing the starting players of the two teams. At this time, the hosts of the live broadcast room were Matthew and Adams, the famous hosting partners of Sky Sports.
"Matthew, after more than ten days, we once again brought you the game between Arsenal and Chelsea. Compared with that game, I think dear viewers are already very curious about the changes of the two teams in the new season.
"
"Indeed, the most interesting thing about Arsenal is Xiao. He has already shown his extraordinary talent in the first game. He scored one goal and three assists. He seems to have booked the rookie king, and he was the first player in the first game.
He has distanced himself from Ronaldo, Rooney, Robben, Robin, Wright and others and has become the number one young player." Obviously Matthew has become a loyal Xiao Ge fan.
"Indeed, Xiao's performance is surprising, but what I pay more attention to is Arsenal's defense. Although they defeated Newcastle United by a big score in the first game, they were beaten by one more player.
He counterattacked and scored a goal. Chelsea is very good at playing this kind of ball." Obviously Adams didn't want to talk more about Xiao Ge at this time, because Nangong Ziyu and he had suspended negotiations, and they could no longer use Xiao Ge for advertising easily.
.
"Well, Palik's departure does give Wenger a bit of a headache, but I think Wenger already has a plan. I heard that Alexander Song performed well in the reserve team, and Flamini is also surprisingly young.
Human." Matthew is obviously quite optimistic about Arsenal.
"Really? Then we'll see if Matthew's view is correct. Jose's change of formation may give us a new view. Remove Didier and replace it with Crespo. I think Arsenal's defense will be better."
Be careful, Crespo is a typical invisible killer."
"Indeed, this is a test for Arsenal's passing. Xiao's position has also changed. Robin replaced Xiao on the right, and Xiao's position is obviously in the middle, playing as an attacking midfielder. His position is better than the original Bo
Gekamp is slightly closer to midfield."
"Obviously the two coaches have started a battle in the middle, and Wenger is ahead. I think Jose's plan has failed."
"Okay, dear viewers, the game will start soon. We will be on site immediately."
