The two sides have been in a state of panic, and the two teams have been in a state of panic.
"Coach Wang, we see that the lineups of both teams have not changed much, and to be honest, the performance of both teams in the league recently is not very stable. Regarding today's game, who do you think will win more?"
Wang Lu is one of the commentators in China who knows more about football. After hearing Su Tao's question, he thought about it for a while and expressed his opinion: "In fact, in my opinion, both teams have their own advantages and disadvantages. The key to this game depends on whether the two coaches can seize the opponent's shortcomings and give the opponent a fatal blow. Let's talk about Leeds United first. Youth is their advantage, but when facing experienced giants like Arsenal, this advantage often becomes a disadvantage. Even if Arsenal's state is not stable during this period, we actually see that Henry 's state has always been relatively stable. Once Leeds United gives Henry a chance in defense, I believe that with his ability, he can seize this opportunity and turn it into a goal. "
"On the other hand, the two wingers on the Arsenal side can be called veterans. Cole and Eboue like to go up to participate in the attack. After they go up, they may need Ljungberg and Pires to participate in the defense. Once Leeds United seizes the opportunity to play a quick counterattack, Ljungberg is fine, he is at his peak, but Pires, who is over 30 years old, is estimated to be difficult to withstand Milner's impact! "
While Wang Lu was analyzing the two teams, Li Shiguang, who was standing on the sidelines of the court, was relieved because Wenger's starting lineup did not change from what he had guessed.
After watching the video of those Arsenal games in the middle of the week, he found two problems with Arsenal. At that time, he felt that if they could be seized, there was a good chance of winning this game.
The first one is what Wang Lu just mentioned. Arsenal's two full-backs have strong offensive attributes and really like to participate in the offense. Admittedly, this makes Arsenal's offensive level richer, but the consequence is that it is easy for opponents to seize the opportunity to counterattack through the flanks. In the first 12 rounds, Arsenal lost 9 goals, 4 of which were counterattacked by opponents from the flanks.
The second point is Fabregas. Although he is still very young, he has superb skills and strong organizational ability. He has become the core of Arsenal's midfield. It can even be said that freezing him can at least make Arsenal's midfield play without any rules. Li Shiguang found in the video that the reason why Arsenal's performance in the Premier League has been fluctuating during this period is largely because the rough style of the Premier League has caused Fabregas to be violated many times in the game. He was afraid of being injured and was violated many times. He began to be afraid to make moves, and often kicked the ball directly after getting the ball.
So today Li Shiguang specially chose Mascherano as the defensive midfielder, because he is fierce in defense and rarely commits fouls, which makes Li Shiguang feel at ease.
In fact, Toure had told Li Shiguang privately before that he wanted to play with his brother Kolo Toure in this game.
But after careful consideration, Li Shiguang still chose to let him be a substitute, because after 12 rounds of games, Toure had been suspended for one game due to accumulated yellow cards. Facing the flexible Fabregas, if Toure's excessive movements led to a card, Li Shiguang did not want to passively change players.
But what Li Shiguang wanted, Wenger also wanted.
After the game started, Arsenal changed their previous style in defense and began to use the high-pressure tactical system that Leeds United was most familiar with. Once Leeds United got the ball, even if the ball had been passed back to the penalty area, Henry and Van Persie would immediately rush up to press. The game lasted for almost 10 minutes. Arsenal's physical pressing made Leeds United's players very uncomfortable. It was difficult to organize an effective ground attack. Li Shiguang also kept directing the players to play behind them and not pass the ball back.
On the other side of the coaching area, Wenger, who was also wearing a straight suit like Li Shiguang, was crossing his arms in front of his chest, looking at the situation on the field and Li Shiguang who was yelling non-stop on the other side with satisfaction.
Before the game, Li Shiguang took the initiative to come over and greet him and Adebayor. According to European etiquette, Li Shiguang also took the initiative to hug Wenger.
But in the professor's mind, 90% of the reason why he spent more than 20 million euros to buy Adebayor was because of Li Shiguang. If he hadn't spent such a large sum of money,
, I could have strengthened a few more positions in the summer window, so today I had to let this young man suffer a little in my own territory, and let him know that the old ones are still the best!
Suddenly, the exclamations of the fans behind him interrupted Wenger's thoughts. He hurriedly looked at the field and saw that Van Persie had already dribbled into the penalty area.
Just now, when the game was 11 minutes in, it was originally a counterattack opportunity for Leeds United. After Mascherano successfully intercepted the ball from Fabregas' feet, he was about to pass the ball to Modric who was standing parallel to him, but just after passing the ball, Van Persie appeared on the passing route.
After successfully stealing the ball, Van Persie immediately took the ball to attack the goal of Leeds United, and played a beautiful two-on-one cooperation with Henry, passing Kompany who rushed to defend. In just a few seconds, he received the pass from Henry and rushed into the penalty area with the ball. Kompany, who had lost his position, could not catch up with Van Persie, and next to Chiellini was Henry. He knew that as soon as he left Henry, Van Persie would pass the ball to him immediately.
Finally, seeing this situation, Schmeichel couldn't help it and rushed up to stop Van Persie from shooting, but at the moment he fell to the ground, Van Persie made a light lob and sent the ball into the goal of Leeds United.
On the screen, Su Tao's voice came out: "0:1!!! Van Persie!!! Arsenal scored the first goal away from home!! An imaginative shot, Schmeichel had no idea, he could only watch the football slide past him and slowly float into the lower left corner of the goal!! "
After seeing Van Persie score a goal, Wenger, who usually looked calm and indifferent, could no longer hold back his joy. He jumped up from his seat like a child and opened his arms towards his beloved disciple who was running towards him. The two hugged each other tightly, using this way to vent their unspeakable excitement and joy.
After a short and warm celebration, Wenger slowly loosened his hands, patted Van Persie's shoulders with a smile to show encouragement, and then sat back in his original position as if nothing had happened, but his eyes never left the court. However, almost at the same time, his seemingly casual glance quietly shifted his attention to the Leeds United coaching bench not far away...
However, what surprised him was that Li Shiguang, who was a little anxious before, became extremely calm after the Leeds United goal was lost. There was no ripple on his face, as if the goal had never happened.
Looking at Li Shiguang's expression, Wenger, who was just immersed in joy, also calmed down and couldn't help but guess.
What is this kid thinking?
