Chapter 299 Situation

On the Arsenal bench, French coach Wenger squinted his eyes and stared at the game on the court, but the expression on his face was very relaxed.

Although Arsenal is behind, Wenger believes that Arsenal is in control of the situation.

After staying at Arsenal for so many years, Arsenal can be said to be the team created by Wenger. Of course, Wenger knows quite well. When Arsenal loses, most of them are without being able to control the situation, under the situation and the rhythm of the game, with Arsenal's attack. Ability, almost no team can compete with it. Even if the momentum is exciting, AC Milan and other strong teams in Europe are not good. Arsenal itself is also one of the strongest teams in Europe.

Before the game, Wenger attached great importance to it.

Although Liverpool's injury problem is very serious, and half of the main team missed the game, Liverpool is still Don Jack. Wenger also believes that Don Jack is the most threatening player. The previous game also proved that the black-haired boy's personal ability is too strong, far more than the average player. Wenger feels that Henry can't do it either. Henry ranks second in the Premier League scorer list precisely because there is a big gap between his personal ability and Liverpool's No. 10.

Although, he will not admit it verbally.

But, so what?

Now the gap between Liverpool and Arsenal on the court can be seen at a glance that the level opportunities of the two teams are not on the same line. Even if this is Anfield Stadium, every player of the other side works very hard. This effort obviously exceeds that of Arsenal, but it is not easy to make up for the gap in strength.

Now Arsenal only has one goal missing.

"However, this number ten..."

At the time of the summer transfer, Arsenal did not join the competition for Don Jack. Wenger originally felt that he had cultivated the reputation of young players, coupled with the attraction of Arsenal's defending league champion and the expensive transfer fee, which was enough to attract Don Jack, but in the end, the French did not expect Liverpool to win. The victory of this transfer war.

Ten million pounds...

Thinking about this number, Wenger feels sad.

Arsenal is really not rich. The main reason is that the construction of a new stadium has emptied all Arsenal's savings, but Arsenal can still take out 10 million pounds of checks. In last summer, Arsenal not only completed the renewal of some of the players, but also spent 15.5 million pounds to introduce Spanish genius - Reyes.

But, Reyes.....

"Hey..."

Looking at the front field and finding the young figure, Wenger sighed in his heart. It's not that Reyes is not good, but this player is not quite adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League and the fierce opponent of the Premier League. His previous performance can only be said to be moderate, which can barely replace Borgkamp, but this is too different from the value of 18.5 million pounds.

And what about this Liverpool's No. 10 boy?

Ten million pounds! This is the real value!

Not to mention 10 million, if Liverpool wants to sell it now, even if it is 30 million pounds, there are many teams competing to buy it! Now the most expensive player in England, even Manchester United's young player Wayne. Rooney, but that's more because of the commercial value, and this brunette boy is more reflected in his own strength. With him, a team can score a goal.

Wenger regrets very much... I regret it...

It's useless to regret. At present, the most important thing is the game on the field.

For this, Wenger is not too worried. Although Arsenal has not scored yet, in the heart of the French, scoring is a matter of time. Now that the first half of the game is not over, there is still a lot of time left for the team.

※※※

I don't know what Benitez would think if he knew Wenger's idea, but at this time, the Spaniard was actually the same as Wenger's mind. He was not very worried about the game, but was very satisfied.

Speaking of which, this game is equally important for Liverpool.

But the team's current state really makes Benitez's head bigger. He has no choice but to formulate the most favorable tactic for Liverpool - defense.

For Liverpool, the current team's lineup must be comparable to Arsenal's 'All-Star'. When it comes to defense and want to keep Arsenal's goal, I'm afraid no team in the world dares to say so, but Benitez still has his own ideas.

Arsenal's attack is very fierce. If you want to complete it, it's almost delusional.

However, it is still easy to intercept some threatening points. Before the game, when Benitez set up defensive tasks, it was also aimed at several important positions. Liverpool's defenders can't stop Arsenal's fast attack, but they can stop several key positions, so Arsenal wants To score goals, there is a lot of opportunity in other positions, but the reason why other positions are not so important is that those positions are not easy to enter, and on the other hand, Arsenal is not good at it. In this way, it can achieve the effect of scoring goals effectively by Arsenal.

It's complicated, but it's actually very simple.

For example, Pires is better at passing on the left side. His points in the corner of the penalty area are often sharp, which are well known and are also conclusions analyzed by Liverpool's professional coaches. Benitez's tactics are aimed at the points in the corner of the penalty area and let the defenders do a good job.

In this way, Pires wants to pass the ball, so he can only get rid of the defensive player and pass at the bottom line. This is not the position he is good at, so there are few good balls.

These arrangements are very surprising. Liverpool have practiced many times before the game, so the fans found that Arsenal has been attacking for a long time, and it seems to be bound to score goals. However, in fact, the really threatening ball is rare. In addition, the away game is a challenge to the mental quality of the players, and they are often eager to score goals. The mentality has made them lose a lot of good opportunities.

However, it is not easy not to let Arsenal score.

In the 46th minute of the game (in stoppage time), Arsenal's indiscriminate bombing finally brought the effect. Defender Caragel's mistake gave Henry a chance. He volleyed his right foot in the penalty area and was punched out by goalkeeper Kirkland, and then Pires entered the penalty area to make up for the shot. At the last time of the first half, Arsenal finally Equalized the score.

However, the hardships are well known.

※※※

Intermission.

Both sides are different.

Liverpool players have a feeling of depression, because they defended the whole first half but still failed to hold it in the last time. Arsenal players, on the contrary, scored in the last minute, giving them a feeling of bitterness and sweetness.

"What do you think of the current situation?"

CCTV, after entering the half-time break, Zhang Yan and guest Li Feng discussed again.

Arsenal's goal made Li Feng full of confidence. He said: " Arsenal equalized the score, which will balance the mentality of their players. As the side that is tied, Liverpool players may have an imbalance in mentality, but these world's top players have good professional quality. Generally speaking, Not surprisingly, Arsenal's winning rate is still higher. I'm optimistic about Arsenal.

"Thank you, Li Feng, for your speech, but I think there are still many fans in front of the TV who want Liverpool to win. Liverpool has Jack, and I hope he can score in the second half."

Not only does Zhang Yan have this idea, but most Liverpool fans at Anfield also think so.

During the leisure time of the half-time, the fans were not idle. They were all shouting neatly to cheer for Liverpool. Many of the fans gave the shouts to Don Jack, because in the hearts of these fans, if Liverpool still scored in the second half, it would be Jack Don who scored.

This is the effect of Don Jack spending so much time in Liverpool!

This scene made Don Jack in the home team's locker room slightly moved. The fans trust him so much, but the team has always been at a disadvantage. He is very unwilling. In the face of the powerful Arsenal, he even feels a little powerless. However, he must work hard to score goals to be worthy of many supporting teams. The fans.

Arsenal, see you in the second half!
