Whether Chelsea fans admit it or not, the temperament and attitude shown by Millwall on the court are even more majestic and majestic!
Although, the current Millwall is not perfect, and there is no truly flawless team.
The only difference is that the potential of Millwall's players has not yet been tapped to its limit. When they truly reach their peak, they will be able to achieve the "perfection" they can achieve.
Chelsea got off to a fantastic start. The front three, especially the wide players, did not realize the overall changes on the field. They were still actively pressing in the frontcourt, but when Millwall's attack hit their backcourt
, their defensive awareness dropped.
This directly caused Millwall to completely destroy their wing defense before scoring the equalizing goal.
The score was equalized and Chelsea's wing defense began to strengthen. Since Eriksen saw the problem, he would not sit still and wait for death.
At the same time, let the team strengthen long passes during counterattacks, especially long passes to the side.
After all, Millwall's two defenders are extremely aggressive offensively, and the space behind them can definitely be exploited!
At this stage, Aldrich would certainly have foreseen that when deducing the effectiveness of tactics, wouldn't such defensive loopholes be obvious?
Therefore, the focus is on instilling defensive concepts in the midfielder and defender.
The success rate of long passes is definitely not as high as that of short passes.
The technical ability of the long pass initiator needs to be guaranteed. Secondly, the person who responds needs to be smart in movement and able to capture the space.
Even if these two qualities are met.
There is another condition that is difficult to change.
The flight time of the ball in the air!
Children all understand that the longer the distance, the longer the time will be if the speed of the ball remains unchanged. In order to accelerate the ball, the requirements for force control are higher, and the technical ability of the running receiver is also higher, and the ability to perfect the ball is required.
There are not many players who stop the ball in the air.
Therefore, the opponent's long pass, even if it is played on the wing, the time the ball flies in the air is the time for Millwall to set up its defense. If the opponent plays with more and less, then the dangerous area of the penalty area will be reduced. If the opponent uses the number of people to balance or the small number
If they play more, Millwall can divide their forces to defend. At this time, the defensive ability of the double midfielders will be reflected. One player will help defend the wing, and another player will defend the wing.
Continue to guard the center and become a single defensive midfielder, not to directly intercept, but to delay the opponent's attack and buy defensive time for teammates. This is a measure that Pirlo did not dare to take when he and Gattuso partnered in the past. Because Pirlo went to
Helping to defend the wing, his speed and defensive ability are difficult to produce significant results. If Gattuso helps to defend the wing, it is very likely that the back line will be exposed to the opponent's frontal impact.
In most cases, Millwall must defend with more, because almost no opponent dares to defend Millwall with a balanced number of people. Millwall's offensive pressure is to use offense instead of defense!
If the opponent switches from long passes to short passes, Millwall's handy defensive strategy of pressing high can continue to be used.
Aldrich cannot pursue Michels' total offense and total defense, but the opponent's requirements must be resolutely implemented: all members participate in the defense and contribute to the defense. This is attitude and discipline!
Trident is no exception!
Compared with the two full-backs on Millwall's side who are playing well on both offense and defense and seem to be everywhere, the two full-backs on Chelsea's side, Johnson and Bridge, pale in comparison. Not only do they have no achievements in offense,
He was frequently blown up on the defensive end.
Eriksen just asked the wing players to strengthen defense, and then sat on the coaching bench. He was thinking about countermeasures. For a moment, he felt unprecedented pressure.
The Premier League's fast pace and close-pressing habit prevent Veron from performing well. This does not change whether the player changes teams, but is determined by the style of the entire league, because every opponent has a similar set.
Coupled with Millwall's own strengthening of the midfield, Nedved, Alonso, and De Rossi, the three of them made Veron a dumpling. Veron himself did not have the dribbling ability to rush forward, which made him in the
The presence of the midfielder is getting less and less, and he has fallen into a similar situation as Manchester United faced Millwall.
The predicament is even worse than before, because when he was at Manchester United, Millwall's Nedvěd was more involved in attacking. There must be a significant distance from the midfielder when he returns to defense in the first time, and Pirlo's defensive ability will not
It creates pressure on Veron like Alonso's personal entanglement.
Duff and Gudjohnsen returned to defense, and Crespo was alone in the frontcourt, trapped in the double-team of Millwall defenders and midfielders. Occasionally, an overhead ball flew over, and Crespo cleverly countered the offside situation.
It was a one-on-one shot, but he saw Bute rushing out to control the ball, which made him feel extremely desperate.
Chelsea wanted to break through Millwall's defense in a simple and crude way, which was a bit whimsical.
Eriksen stood up for the second time in the 22nd minute and revoked the order he had given before: instead of playing long passes, he changed to short passes. The attack was launched from the center and backcourt, especially using Duff's ability to attack from the wing alone.
This idea was not unexpected by Millwall, and even their players thought it was nothing new, because many opponents played this way.
However, the dribbling speed of the players is still not as fast as sprinting without the ball. Millwall will immediately have someone in the frontcourt to delay Duff, and other defensive players will run to the backcourt. It is like a competition, and the scene is very
It was exciting, but even if Duff broke through the obstacles and reached the frontcourt, they would find that their counterattack turned into a positional battle. Moreover, because Veron was restricted, Chelsea became powerless when fighting positional battles.
Eriksen's face was as dark as water. He could naturally see the reason for Chelsea's poor attack.
It seems that Chelsea has never shown a particularly strong team spirit. Some points may appear to be a bit threatening when in possession of the ball, but there is no familiar group cooperation and the overall situation is not active. Millwall presses hard and blocks the ball handler from short distances.
The passing line is one, and the lack of tacit understanding among the Chelsea team is the other.
Originally in the middle, he also expected Makelele to become the backbone of Chelsea, just like Makelele showed the ability when he was at Millwall: reshape the game!
But what Eriksen didn't expect was that Millwall changed their offensive routine. They no longer tended to attack in the middle, but instead used the wing.
This is actually not difficult to predict. Will Aldrich ignore Makelele?
Attacking the opponent's strongest defensive point is not called courage, it is called stupidity, because it is exactly what you want!
Bridge and Johnson are two full-backs. They are such good targets. If you don't abuse them, then look for Makelele? Are Millwall crazy?
This makes Makelele unable to take advantage of the advantage of reshaping the team's offensive situation after the end of the attack. As for shifting to positional battle and handing the ball to him, he can make formulaic passes, but it is absolutely impossible to achieve the goal.
The ability of a positional warfare offensive organizer is high.
When Chelsea's wingers retreat to half-court defense, Millwall's two full-backs will not risk just rushing in. They will pay attention to keeping a reasonable distance from the opponent's wingers and continue to support the attack. If the opponent launches a counterattack, they can also
Defend immediately.
In the 29th minute of the game, Larsson tried a shot in the penalty area but was blocked by Terry. Makelele got the ball and turned around and passed the ball to Duff on the wing.
Duff dribbled the ball along the wing to start, but before it could pick up speed, Schneider intercepted it directly. Chelsea's forward counterattack failed before it broke out. After intercepting the ball, Schneider looked up to observe the situation in the frontcourt.
Pass the ball directly to Larsson.
Larson was also back to defend, but this time he stopped and there was no one to mark him. He distanced himself from Bridge, took the ball two steps laterally and then went directly behind Desailly. Henry had not returned to Terry before he returned.
He had run into the open space before, and Larson's pass came as expected. Before Terry could fly to block it again, Henry pushed the ball with a ground ball and sent the ball into the dead corner of the goal. The ball was not fast, and Kudic
Although Ni tried his best, he still couldn't pounce.
"Henry helped Millwall reverse the score! Larsson's second assist! Starting from the first round of the new season, Henry will once again challenge for the Premier League Golden Boot and the European Golden Boot. He won the Golden Boot with 25 goals last season.
Van Nistelrooy, he must work hard. I believe that Henry, who returns to the center position this season, will not let his competitors take away the top scorer award with 25 goals. As long as he is not affected by injuries, Henry can play in the Premier League for one season.
There is absolutely no problem scoring 30 goals! He is Millwall’s goal machine!”
Henry's goal silenced the home team fans at Stamford Bridge.
On the sidelines, Aldrich closed his eyes slightly and showed a smile of enjoyment. At the same time, he was gesturing something in front of his body with his right hand. His index finger kept turning, as if he was drawing circles, as if he was enjoying a wonderful art feast.
In the stands, Abu's face began to look a little ugly.
The Millwall generals performed a collective classic celebration in front of the visiting team's stands. They stood in a row with one hand to their ears and turned slightly sideways. The visiting Lions fans burst out in the stands and shouted in unison: "Crazy.
lion!"
The Millwall generals were still unsatisfied, three times in a row.
"Crazy Lion"
"Crazy Lion"
"Crazy Lion!"
The echo of the mad lion echoed in the air of Stamford Bridge.
Martin Taylor shouted these words in his passionate commentary.
Aldridge, who returned to Millwall at the end of last season, actually felt strange to the Premier League and to those who followed him. It seemed that Millwall had no motivation and was resting on its laurels, trying to use past experience to
Continue to be successful.
However, after seeing Aldridge and Millwall team debut in the new season with a passion and enjoyment of the game, the kind of crazy lion and young coach that Martin Taylor and Andy Gray are familiar with,
They're all back!
They create beauty in enjoyment! They work hard to create history in passion!
Standing out from all living beings, yearning for the immortal will in the immortal myth, the third-generation mad lion, like a sharp arrow piercing the clouds, soars into the sky without concealing its edge... (To be continued, please search for Piaotian literature, novels
