Lord of Greenery

Chapter 399 You thick brows and big eyes...

Inter Milan put down the iron barrel formation, Redknapp did not think about this possibility.

If Inter Milan's head coach is still Mourinho, he will definitely focus on finding ways to deal with this tactic.

But Inter Milan's current head coach is Benitez. It has been rumored that Benitez wants to eliminate Mourinho's influence in the team, so he has not used the Portuguese tactics.

Redknapp took this as an established fact, and only then arranged the current formation and tactics.

As for now...

Redknapp gritted his teeth and looked at Benitez on the coaching bench of Inter Milan——

I didn't expect that you, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also put on an iron bucket array!
Benitez acted as if he didn't feel anything, he still concentrated on watching the game on the field, and occasionally wrote two strokes in his notebook.

He doesn't like Mourinho, nor does he like this iron barrel tactic.

But the most important thing now is victory, and Benitez's use of tactics is not so exaggerated.

After relying on Li Ze's assault ability to sneak attack and score a goal, he has been sticking to it ever since.

Benitez's tactics in this game are so simple and rude.

To do this, two things are crucial -

In the absence of many teammates who can help, Li Ze must be able to score the opening goal.

In terms of shooting ability, Benitez completely trusts Li Ze.

After only getting along for less than half a season, Benitez has already been deeply impressed by Li Ze's shooting skills.

Benitez believes that if he gives him enough shooting opportunities, or even unlimited firing rights, this man can easily exceed 50 goals in a season!
Benitez can also be regarded as a head coach who has seen many big worlds. He has coached well-known superstars such as Aimar, Gerrard, and Torres, and he has also stood on the stage of the Champions League final.

But Li Ze's shooting efficiency still amazes him.

The Chinese native's shooting level has surpassed the category of superstars, and is the kind of level that is eligible to compete for the best in history.

Even in Benitez's impression, in the history of football, there seems to be no better shooting skills than Li Ze.

Gerd Müller is called a bomber, Ronaldo is called an alien, and Lone Wolf's shooter is also world-class, but the feeling they give Benitez is not as exaggerated as Li Ze.

Just like today, Benitez actually thought that the task he assigned to Li Ze was too difficult.

To complete this task, Li Ze can only rely on himself.

Then he scored, looking so relaxed.

For a moment, Benitez suddenly had an illusion——

Is this goal actually easy to score?
This idea flashed in my mind, and was quickly denied by Benitez.

Tottenham are also a team that can enter the Champions League. Even if they pay more attention to offense, they will not be too weak defensively.

Especially after the last contest, Tottenham conceded 4 goals in the first half, which did not make them flinch, but was courageous after knowing their shame.

With Benitez's sensitivity to tactics, it is easy to see that the opponent's defensive arrangement has been strengthened in this game.

Redknapp has been able to play in England for so many years, and he must have a level.

Facing Inter Milan, which has obvious weaknesses, Tottenham used tough or dirty fouls as the main means, making up their minds to win the game even if they took more cards.

After all, this is also Tottenham's home court. Coupled with the intensity of league confrontation outside the Premier League civilization, the referee's whistle today is a bit soft.

This undoubtedly increased the arrogance of Tottenham.

If they play according to the normal tactical arrangement, it will not be so easy for Inter Milan to break through the gate of Tottenham.

Benitez used tactics to fight against, and even felt that the door that was difficult to break through was so easily breached...

Only Benitez himself knew how fast his heart beat when he saw Li Ze score a goal.

Only he himself knows how much Benitez likes Li Ze walking back as if nothing had happened, and his attitude of treating goals like nothing!

Before the start of the game, Benitez was afraid that scoring too late would put too much pressure on his players.

Now Benitez felt greedily that the goal was too early.

It would be nice if it took a little longer and didn't stimulate the nerves of the Tottenham players.

The dog also jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the Tottenham players are in a crazy state, and it is very likely that they will defeat Inter Milan.

Facts have proved that Benitez is a bit overthinking.

Mourinho has just left for less than a season, and the players in the team are quite familiar with the iron barrel tactics.

Even because the players are more familiar with this set of tactics, everyone's state is better than the previous games!
The mood of the Inter Milan fans is a bit complicated, some are excited, some are nostalgic and some are disappointed.

Among the disappointed fans, there are also those who are disappointed with the team and those who are disappointed with Benitez.

The reason for the disappointment is also very simple, because Inter Milan did not continue to follow Benitez's direction and was changed into an offensive team.

For Inter fans who want attacking football, this is undoubtedly a disappointment.

Now it is clear that the Inter Milan players have the upper hand, but some fans booed in their stands.

Benitez pretended not to hear these sporadic voices.

What he needs is victory, not the approval of a small group of fans.

In fact, Benitez's iron barrel formation really made Tottenham players uncomfortable.

As a strong team, it more or less needs to face the iron barrel of the relegation team.

Teams that can perform well in the league have a lot of experience in fighting against the iron barrel.

For example, the best way to play against the Iron Barrel is that the team has a world-class center forward.

For example, Chelsea's Drogba, such as Tottenham's future superstar Kane.

But now Tottenham does not have such players. Tottenham, which has only re-entered the Champions League after so many years, is immature in many ways.

Crouch is good, but only good.

His tactical role is far stronger than his personal ability, and as a center, his body is not too strong, and he is even called "high bamboo pole".

It can be seen from this nickname that he is a tall and thin player.

When facing a strong team like Inter Milan, Crouch can play a relatively limited role.

At most, he is helping to make the ball and creating opportunities for his teammates.

And Bell, who was placed high hopes by Redknapp before the game, is now encountering a lot of problems.

Up to now, he has received the ball passed by his teammates 3 times, but he has not made a successful breakthrough, and he has not even broken into the 30-meter danger zone of Inter Milan.

As a player with high expectations, this performance is enough to be eye-catching.

What broke him even more was that Li Ze was always by his side, like a piece of old chewing gum that couldn't be shaken off, no matter how hard he tried to pick it off.

Bell's mentality was a little broken.
