Chapter 374 The Inexperienced Xiaofa
Although being punished by Ferdinand distracted a certain amount of attention, the battle between Notts County and Arsenal came as scheduled.
"From the perspective of the state of the two teams, Notts County, which has been fully rested, is undoubtedly better, but Arsenal has more experience to deal with the difficult schedule. In the situation where the strength of the two teams is roughly equal Now, it's really hard to say who can win!"
In a football talk show with high ratings, the guests talked with the host, and the topics were naturally about the top game of the Premier League.
"Arsenal's biggest advantage lies in playing at home. Perhaps this is an important factor that can affect the outcome of the game. However, for the two teams that have not lost a single game so far, the home and away games really don't seem to have much impact."
"The focus of the game is the competition in the midfield. Whoever can control the midfield will be able to take the initiative. The main theme of the battle between Vieira and Keane has now changed. It has become a midfielder led by Vieira. Tit-for-tat between the Bergshire midfield."
"For Arsenal, the bad news is the team's defensive midfielder. Brazilian star Gilberto Silva missed the game with a bad injury. The Gunners' midfield defensive strength will drop by more than one level. Naturally, we are already at a disadvantage, so we are still very optimistic that Notts County can take the initiative!"
"The giants can never be underestimated, and Notts County's top spot in the Premier League is not based on luck, so this battle between dragons and tigers must be extremely fierce and passionate. As for who will win, it is difficult for us to predict, but there is a big chance. The possibility is that the two sides draw, which is also a result that both sides can barely accept!"
Although the guest's point of view does not have much theoretical support, but for some reason, many fans also have the same view, that is, the two sides may draw.
At the press conference before the game, Loew and Wenger didn't want to confront the reporters directly and make the reporters laugh at them, so they avoided the important things when they spoke, as if a draw was really the result they both wanted to see.
But in the game, it's completely different!
Arsenal, who sit at home, don't pay attention to modesty and courtesy. Facing villains like Notts County, the Gunners directly took up their weapons and began to charge. From the first minute, they showed the momentum of a decisive battle.
And Notts County will not be afraid, and they also fought against Arsenal's offensive, as if they were dead-headed and insisted on defeating their opponents in a frontal battle. This is the real victory.
Arsenal's formation did not surprise everyone, because there are not many real talents available on the Arsenal bench. The only thing that makes everyone feel incredible is that Wenger actually let Fabregas, who is only 17 years old, replace him. Bergkamp's position as the team's starting midfielder.
This young Spanish teenager was brought back by Wenger from La Masia, the Barcelona youth training camp at the beginning of the season. Fabregas chose to join the Gunners because he was frustrated in La Masia. Wenger promised to do his best to cultivate he.
Maybe everyone is just surprised by his talent now, but they don't think about how great he will be in the future. Only David knows how far this talented genius will grow.
Well, David had to admit that he was greedy again, but he didn't have too many regrets when he thought of those little demons in the youth training camp.
Because of Gilberto Silva's absence, Wenger could only arrange for Edu to replace him as a defensive midfielder for Vieira, while Ljungberg's position was replaced by Wenger's French compatriot Wiltord.
On the Notts County side, a 433 lineup was dispatched today, obviously going to compete recklessly with Arsenal in midfield.
As soon as the game started, the two sides did not make any tentative moves. They directly fought with real knives and guns, and the competition in the midfield was extremely fierce.
As the number one midfielder in the Premier League and even the number one midfielder in the world, Vieira's strength is naturally needless to say, and he can play an extremely important role in both offense and defense.
But the problem is that today his partner has become Edu, a teammate who is obviously inferior in strength. In terms of protecting the midfield, his strength has dropped a lot, and the two of them have to fight against the three Notts County defenders. The waist is obviously a little powerless, even if Fabregas often retreats to help them, it is difficult to really fight against Notts County's midfielder.
The most important task Loew gave to Pony was to limit the point of Cesc Fabregas. In his opinion, the 17-year-old Fabregas is obviously the weak link of Arsenal. As long as he is restricted, the Gunners There is no stable point of exit in the frontcourt, and even the offense can only be tossed and turned in the midfield and backcourt most of the time, unable to threaten Notts County's goal.
Sure enough, because Vieira had to take into account his own defense, most of the time he did not dare to go too far, and could only rely on Fabregas to pass the ball for the two sides and feed the ball for Henry. Under Nuo's tight defense, the still immature Fabregas seemed to be invisible, which directly lowered Arsenal's offensive threat by a few notches.
When it was Notts County's turn to attack, Deco and Alonso organized the midfield in an orderly manner, passing the ball with ease. Without Gilberto Silva's sweep and interception, they could easily Hit the ball into a threatening position through half-court but threaten Arsenal's goal.
Regardless of the fact that the ball possession rate of the two teams is almost the same, the actual offensive threat is obviously better than that of Notts County, but Arsenal's defense is also very tight and did not give Villa a good chance to shoot.
This situation is within Loew's expectations. After all, Arsenal's overall strength lies there. It is definitely the strongest opponent Notts County has encountered so far. Cishire also needs to be more patient.
After 10 minutes in the first half, Notts County's offensive gradually became fierce. In fact, it was because of Arsenal's poor control of the midfield that gave Notts County more opportunities to face the goal directly.
Wenger did not expect the situation to be so embarrassing. Cesc Fabregas, whom he had high hopes for, had difficulty holding the ball without support. The problem of lack of experience was exposed, which directly led to the sluggishness of Arsenal's offensive end.
But at this time, it is impossible for him to directly take Fabregas down, which would be too much of a blow to the young players, and he would not like to see a talented young player die in his own hands.
In order to change the unfavorable situation, Wenger can only retreat the midfield line by more than ten meters, so that it can be more closely integrated with the back line and protect the penalty area. As for the midfield competition, he knows that Notts County has won .
