804 Backup Plan
Red Army fans cheered across Anfield Stadium, and in the hustle and bustle, Klopp concealed his inner disappointment.
The technical circuit Arsenal has cultivated over the past years cannot be changed in a short time.
Arsenal is better at controlling, which is relative to Premier League teams, not European football teams.
In other words, once Arsenal takes the initiative, they can launch a very gorgeous offensive, which has been confirmed countless times in the Wenger era.
But the key is that if you cannot actively control the game, this kind of playing style will be flawed.
For example, in the Wenger era, Mourinho was very passive because Mourinho was using defense to control the game, and the control was more comprehensive, which not only limited the opponent's offensive threat, but also constantly disrupted the opponent's rhythm.
Situ Yunbing's control over the game has been sublimated to another level and realm!
People always say that the pace of the Premier League is very fast, but in fact, in too many games, there are always nearly dramatic goals after the rhythm is broken. Of course, this is also one of the important reasons why the Premier League is wonderful and is loved by fans around the world.
But ask the giant teams around the world, do they like this kind of game?
Of course I don't like it!
Who would be willing to be upset by an unknown person if he loses his feet?
The problem facing Arsenal now is that once they lose control of the game, or cannot control the game in the way they are good at, it will be difficult for them to fight against their opponents in a fierce confrontation and destruction rhythm!
Dortmund, once led by Klopp, was at least very tenacious in this regard. If it weren't for the Hamburg's creativity led by Situ Yunbing back then, it would have been too amazing. De Bruyne and Rakitic could always create a shocking murderous intent when their opponents were not careful, and killed their opponents like thunder in the ground to splatter blood for five steps!
But Liverpool is not that creative now!
Liverpool is stronger than its impact and rhythm!
If you carefully study Situ Yunbing's coaching style in the past few years, his coaching philosophy and wisdom are always linked together, both in the defensive and offensive aspects.
For example, playing chess and playing chess, being good at playing opponents, and leading tactical is a very obvious feature!
Whether it is the simple attack during Monaco, the backhand counterattack and then the fast attack, or the details of the Hamburg era that quickly organize the meticulous attack after one blow is not completed, or Liverpool is now frequently switching the main attack method, Situ Yunbing's deployment and tactical use of the team has reached its peak!
To fight such an opponent, you must be prepared for a protracted battle and ideological awareness.
Unfortunately, Arsenal is not good at fighting protracted battles!
They may be able to attack and defend well, but once the rhythm is over, their performance is only better than ordinary Premier League teams. This is just the effect of the differences in player abilities. The team's overall technical circuit makes them not actually adapt to this very passive situation.
This situation is not uncommon. Just like Mourinho's Chelsea, he is full of tenacity in defensive counterattacks and endures that ordinary people cannot tolerate. However, when they are asked to oppress their opponents to attack, their offensive ability is ordinary because they are not suitable for fighting in a small space, let alone players need to frequently intersperse and run, cover and tear each other, etc.
If Arsenal wants to challenge Liverpool, it is absolutely impossible to have the strength to suppress Liverpool and force Liverpool to become unadapted. Just look at Liverpool's lineup strength and you will know that this is absolutely impossible!
Even if he gave Klopp the best star in every other position except Liverpool in European football, Klopp did not think that the team combined like this could completely suppress Liverpool on the scene within two years!
Because Liverpool's overall lineup has reached an absolutely top level!
Arsenal is at best close to Liverpool's level. Under such conditions, Arsenal must learn how to fight against Liverpool and how to survive in a tug-of-war. This requires a drastic change in game consciousness and thinking, and cannot be achieved quickly overnight.
Behind the score, Klopp will put aside his inner disappointment for the time being, walk to the sidelines to gesture to the team, keeping the team calm and not being affected by the goal concealment.
It may be that it is not new to play Liverpool in the away game to concede the goal first, and the Arsenal players are not unacceptable in their mentality.
Like Wenger led Arsenal to Liverpool and was tied several times last season, which is likely to lead to an explosion in mentality!
Moreover, Klopp has also formulated a plan B, which is how the team should face the game when they are behind in the score.
He has to do better than Wenger in this regard. After all, he is not a coach like Wenger who advocates the freedom of players.
He will also give players some free space to play, but the team's overall cooperative tactical framework must strictly follow his plan.
After the game re-telection, Arsenal still worked hard to create threats in the fast break according to its previous performance.
In the 30th minute of the game, Bellerin assisted from the right to the frontcourt and sent a cross. Giroud jumped into the penalty area and jumped to the right rib of the penalty area and headed the ball. The football was confiscated by Ter Stegen.
This attack failed to create a threat.
Liverpool also continued its previous style of play. When the 33rd minute of the game, Liverpool attacked from the left side of the frontcourt.
Coutinho took the lead in stopping the ball from the left side of the frontcourt and took the ball back. When Milner assisted in the defense, he made a short pass to Eriksen and then continued to retreat. At this time, Bellerin stepped forward step by step and pressed up. He was sure that Robertson did not assist!
But when Coutinho lifted his weight and teleported over the top, Bellerin looked back and suddenly saw Lewandowski pulling the side to respond.
While Lewandowski stopped the ball, Liverpool's frontcourt attack group quickly ran!
Eriksen stepped forward and went to the outside of the left rib of the penalty area, and Lewandowski passed the ball across.
Koscheerney could only retreat and follow the defense. Eriksen dribbled the ball to the bottom line and sent a backward triangle pass!
Casemiro quickly followed up and rushed into the penalty area. As long as he received this ball, it would be extremely threatening whether it was a pass or a shot!
At the critical moment, Wijnaldum took the lead in making a tackle and destroying the ball!
Sanchez, who was retreating from the side, took the ball in the backcourt, Robertson stepped forward to press and counterattack, Sanchez splashed the ball in a direction and turned into the inside line, and then passed the ball to the right of the frontcourt. Giroud took the ball with the side, but it was difficult to control the ball by Coolibali and defense.
He tried to change the spike and break through forcibly, but Kulibali broke the ball out of the sideline.
Liverpool successfully curbs Arsenal's counterattack!
Arsenal's front-court ball was taken from the sideline. After a round of passes, Ramsey passed the ball straight from the back of the center circle.
Firmino wades horizontally from Kante. When Kante moves and defends, he knocks the ball behind him in the right side of the frontcourt. Sanchez comes out from Casemiro. Arsenal's forward trident almost shows a disorderly chaotic running position in the offense, but it can be coordinated!
In Situ Yunbing's eyes, their positioning is disorderly and has no rules to follow, but they have a cooperative system because all three of them are actively looking for the other two!
In the process of hard work, opportunities may arise!
This time, Sanchez dribbled to the left side of the penalty area. Facing Van Dijk, he suddenly picked up the ball on the spot, and the football flew to the right side of the penalty area!
Giroud tried hard to withstand Coolibali's defensive confrontation and directly kicked the ball when the football fell!
But the ball was not played well, and the football turned into a low shot. Ter Stegen subconsciously extended his legs and blocked the ball!
call!
The Red Army fans at the scene breathed a sigh of relief.
But Situ Yunbing's eyes suddenly became solemn.
The blocked football flew out of the penalty area. Ramsey controlled the ball before Eriksen. Casemiro and Eriksen immediately counterattacked. At this time, Ramsey knocked the ball across the empty area on the left.
Wijnaldum quickly followed up and swung the ball forward. When Kante came, he quickly passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area and went to the right.
Sanchez completed the adjustment during the stop and stroke, and suddenly raised his foot and shot the ball!
The ball flew straight to the left in the middle of the goal.
Ter Stegen moved one quick step and raised his hand to block the ball again!
Because the ball is too fast, he really can't hold it!
The blocked football was controlled by Azpilicueta on the side!
The Reds fans in the stands of the stadium were only thrilling, while Klopp on the sidelines still looked expressionless, but he clenched his fists vaguely.
Firmino immediately rushed towards Azpilicueta, and he was in a fierce manner and wanted to release the shovel!
Azpilicueta teleported the ball to the ground and went to Casemiro.
But what Casemiro did not expect was that Wijnaldum did not retreat, but continued to counter-rob him, and Ramsey also came from the side to press him!
Casemiro did not dare to pass the ball back, so he could only subconsciously pass the ball to the left of the midfield and frontcourt to find Coutinho, which was his best pass direction.
However, because there was not enough time to take the ball, the ball flew out of the ground and was not high enough, so it was cut off by Milner in front of the center line halfway!
At this time, Situ Yunbing's eyes became a little gloomy. Perhaps not many people noticed that Arsenal was constantly pressing forward in these waves of offensives, and they were planning to counterattack and encircle!
This is a scene that has never happened 30 minutes before the game.
But Arsenal was able to achieve the overall rhythm in such an orderly manner, which shows that they were premeditated!
This is Klopp’s backup plan!
After intercepting the ball, Milner quickly dribbled forward and advanced quickly, while Ramsey was also quickly killing towards the penalty area.
After coming to the dangerous offensive area, Milner was intercepted by Kante. He quickly completed the pass and cut with Sanchez and entered the Liverpool penalty area in one go. When he reached 5 yards from the baseline, he swept the ball and passed it to the penalty area.
Ramsey and Giroud restrained Van Dijk and Coolibali from retreating, Van Dijk guarded the middle of the goal, and Coolibali blocked the front point.
But Milner passed the ball behind them. At this time, he stopped quickly and looked back. What caught his eye was Firmino's slamming the ball and shooting it out!
The football flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal like a cannonball!
Ter Stegen is powerless to turn the world back!
Chapter completed!
