The Young Lion

Lion King Stadium, full of grandstands to cheer the sky!

The referee whistled.

Premier League pinnacle battle, start the battle!

Millwall coach Aldridge.

Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho.

The two stood on the side of the field about 20 yards apart.

Nowadays, the two coaches who are the most watched in England and even Europe have started another confrontation.

When Aldridge saw Chelsea’s posture after the opening, a sneer smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Ha ha ha, Chelsea, or the anti-anti Chelsea.

A long time ago, when he was determined to challenge all the famous coaches in the contemporary era, the young Audridge couldn’t wait to fight Mourinho.

Perhaps at the moment when they first met in the Netherlands, Audridge even had a ridiculous thought at that time: Old Robson simply gave up the position of coach to Mourinho as an assistant, and Mourinho coached at that time. Alien Ronaldo’s gorgeous offensive Barcelona and his first generation of mad lions have a head-to-head matchup.

In the following years, this expectation may have been worn away while waiting.

When Mourinho really appeared in his vision as the coach, Odric’s mentality has changed.

He doesn’t think Mourinho is special.

It may be due to the experience after reading thousands of sails.

Two consecutive years in the European Championship finals, coupled with several encounters last season, Audridge has “tired” to face Mourinho!

Because the other party can’t surprise himself!

A utilitarian and pragmatic person has few unexpected tricks.

In the aggressive and adventurous platoon formation, he had many encounters, and Audridge enjoyed playing with Ferguson more than Mourinho.

Mourinho just grabbed a good hand and then used the most probable way to win the card, and could not win the cheers or shock the world in the most beautiful or shocking way.

To say that Chelsea has this set of anti-reactions, not to mention how many teams have played in history. When Serie A flourished across Europe, steel defense and utilitarian style were commonplace.

Look, Chelsea’s defenders are afraid to step out of the restricted area.

See how obvious the barrier formed by Chelsea’s midfield.

See, while Chelsea’s wing players are harassing the defense, they are always ready to counterattack from the wing, and Lampard is always ready to plug in the offense.

Aldrich was tired of his opponent.

Since the opening, Millwall has been at home, of course he has to oppress his opponents with an offensive posture, and they are doing the same. Chelsea 11 players are in their own half, Millwall has 7 players in the other half, the crowd Obviously concentrated in the half of Chelsea.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines with a serious look, read the game with great vigour and looked at every detail on the court.

Today Chelsea is indeed fighting back, but he has new preparations in counter-attack tactics.

According to the principle of counterattacks in the past, it is to find the largest space in the counterattack as a safe corridor to push the offensive forward.

Today Mourinho’s tactical arrangement is the opposite!

In his imagination, if Millwall continues to attack and fail to produce results, the full-back must attack aggressively.

If Schneider assists up, then Millwall’s right defense is very empty. According to conventional tactical arrangements, in the implementation, Chelsea will fight back and definitely use this side!

But Mourinho is not the case today, because it is too conventional, Millwall must have a countermeasure, and playing such offensive football all the year round, Millwall must also be accustomed to the opponent’s counterattack routine, using their full back to assist the upside. Come fight back.

What Chelsea wants to do is to allow Robben to break through Millwall’s defense on the right from the other side as the counterattack advances. Mourinho is confident that as long as Robben can Breaking through Ram, this will make Millwall’s defensive center of gravity further shift to this side. At that time, Chelsea’s offensive end will make an offensive shift again, from right to left, there will be an empty left. Give the wingers on the other side more space!

His killer is not Drogba, it is precisely two wingers. He made a strong attack on the side in the counterattack, creating the advantages of the two sides, creating a chain reaction of the Millwall defense line, and finally turning back to the other side of the defense that is more lax.

Is his vision effective?

Mourinho does not know, no one will know, only the results can prove.

However, while observing the game, as time passed, Mourinho’s eyes gradually became dignified, and then, a faint panic emanated!

He turned his head and looked up at Aldridge, who turned his head over his chest as if turning his hands over the clouds in this space!

I want to ask him a question in my heart: Millwall, the so-called offensive football team, does it also counsel?

That’s right, on the court, Millwall’s full-backs will never go deep into the enemy’s enemy zone except for the midfield and frontcourt support!

The fullback’s assists have been significantly weakened!

Millwall still put Chelsea in his backcourt, suppressing his opponent’s inability to move.

The reason is that the forward line with Millwall is not excessively forward, the range of movement is in front of the penalty area, combined with the teammates in the midfield and backcourt, their three-line formation is tightly compressed in the space between the two restricted areas, and then passed After controlling the oppression of the opponent and shaping the ultimate offensive situation, Chelsea will not be threatened and counterattacked before the final blow will be carried out. Success or failure, at least the defense will never expose the space to the opponent.

Chelsea’s defender line shrank behind the big penalty area line, dared not push it out, for fear of being turned offside by his opponent!

The defender cannot support the midfield. Although the winger is defending, he must always be ready to counterattack. Therefore, he cannot easily run into the middle to support the defense. When Millwall passes in the midfield and the frontcourt, the receiving point looks better than the opponent. The larger number of people, the sudden forward pass often makes Chelsea players panic, immediately retreating deeper to compress the space.

Mourinho twitched his lips, seeming to suppress his resentment.

With a play like Millwall, Chelsea’s plan to counterattack fell through.

The most critical issue is that Millwall does not invest more troops in the penalty area. It is true that the offensive pressure is over half the court, but mainly to create an advantage outside the penalty area. Even if the last blow, as long as there is a good long-range shot Angle, they will make a decisive long shot!

Millwall really has no shortage of long-range players, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Ronaldo, Alonso, and even Henry retreat from the long-range have great power.

After playing for 20 minutes, Millwall had a 6-foot shot, all of which were long shots outside the penalty area, while Chelsea had 0 shots.

On the scene Chelsea is extremely passive.

“Martin, let’s look at Millwall’s release of Lampard back then. We can’t speculate on Sir Hall’s ideas by simply comparing player capabilities. I think the most important thing is the player characteristics! In today’s game, If we compare the midfield players of the two teams individually, and even compare the combination, you will find that they are not comparable, Lampard, this is the Golden Globe Award and the world football player is the runner-up player, his current Kaka In contrast, it may be stronger, Essien and Makelele, Alonso and De Rossi, it is difficult to say that Chelsea’s midfield is worse than Millwall’s midfield, but the situation on the court intuitively tells us : Chelsea have no advantage in the midfield, they are completely at a disadvantage!”

“Yes, Chelsea can’t pass the ball in the midfield and shape the game stably. They always tried to pass the ball in Millwall’s clip, but they can’t guarantee the continuation of the attack.”

“Yes, the biggest difference between Chelsea and Millwall midfielders is that Chelsea’s central midfielder Lampard, his desire to move forward is too strong, but what about Alonso? But he stays honestly in a fixed area. Becoming an offensive organizer, not only connects his surrounding teammates, but even forward, he also becomes a response point behind the strike line, and does not always actively move forward to try to score. This is the difference in player characteristics, we can’t Who can be better than others can only be said that in the tactical system where the two teams operate, Alonso will be more suitable for Millwall than Lampard. In contrast, although Chelsea are strong in the midfield, they seem to control the game and change the rhythm. There is no concept. Of course, if someone says that the control game that kills time after Chelsea leads is called control, then when I say nothing.”

“Oh, Millwall’s impression of the outside world in the past decade has been that the control of the midfield is extremely strong. There was Pirlo in the past, and now Alonso. This is probably the outside world has been discussing Sir Hall’s coaching style. Dominate the midfield and bully your opponents wantonly!”

Aldridge didn’t pay attention to Mourinho’s situation on the sidelines.

His boredom is not just a psychological manifestation.

It’s really taken out in the game.

Perhaps many people think that Millwall wants to prove that he is more powerful than Chelsea, so no matter what formation and tactics Chelsea puts on, Millwall must carry the flag of offensive football to death. Go and crush Chelsea!

For some time in the past, Aldridge had such an idea. The more utilitarian the opponent, the more I will use the passionate and romantic gorgeous football to do you!

But now, Aldridge has no such idea.

He thinks he is more mature.

Reverse the position, if he is Mourinho, posing an extreme anti-rebellion formation, then, what do you want most?

Of course, the opponent attacked, attacked recklessly, exposed the space behind him indefinitely, and gave a fertile ground for counterattack!

If Aldridge gave Mourinho what he wanted, would it mean Aldrich was strong, or Aldridge was hopelessly silly?

If the game is lost in the end, it is a ridiculous irony, as if you know your opponent’s hole card clearly, but also put a dagger in both hands, allowing the opponent to fully and madly hold the dagger and pierce his body!

He was reluctant to do such silly things.

When Mourinho dare to really come to him with a passionate offensive duel, at any rate is a contest of balance of attitude, then he will get rid of this tired of Mourinho.

Chelsea players are not cheap.

It is not possible to play Millwall every time. On the scene, when Millwall is attacking, it is at least 7 to 9; instead, when Chelsea is attacking, it becomes 4 to 4 or even 4 to 3, and there is still room for openness.

Is it fair?
