The home team's dressing room at Highbury Stadium was so quiet that all the players didn't even dare to get out of the air.

Wenger slammed open the door of the dressing room, and a cold air rushed in, making the players who had just sweated only feel cold, adding to the chill in their hearts.

The professor had a cold face, and no one could guess what was going on in his mind.

Now the situation on the field is very clear, the Red Rebels have 2 goals in hand, and Arsenal can only stumble in the second half, but how to play?

It's a lot of thinking!

Suffice it to say, Arsenal's first-half defeat was due to the failure to react to the Red Rebels' adjustments, with the likes of Henry, Pire, Ljungberg and others not supporting the wide defence enough, and relying too much on Patrick Vieira and Gilberto in the back? Silva, which led to Arsenal's defensive passivity.

If it is against the kind of team that is strong and weak on one side, Arsenal's defense is more than enough, but the attack power of the three lines of the Red Rebels is very strong, especially in the case of midfield suppression, the fullbacks are inserted, and Arsenal is unable to defend at all.

Of course, no one dared to express their thoughts in their hearts, because it was tantamount to questioning Wenger's tactical arrangements in the first half.

For Arsene Wenger, no one can question him, because questioning him means questioning Arsenal!

'We had a terrible first half and the Red Rebels were tenacious and very winning.' Arsene Wenger's words made the atmosphere in the chilly home team's dressing room even colder.

He's not the kind of manager who thunders and rains, and if he says that, it proves that he can't do it in his heart, and calf protection is another characteristic of Arsene Wenger, he, Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho are the famous calf protection trio in the Premier League this season, but he is now openly praising his opponents.

"I asked in the game that the two full-backs should retreat in time and participate in the defense of the wings to form the first echelon of the defense, but as it stands, we are not good enough, and we must strengthen in the second half!"

Both Ljungberg and Piret were a little distracted, but nodded anyway, not knowing what they were thinking.

In the case of a team winning all the way, the song of victory will cover up a series of problems, but when the team is in trouble, as soon as it is in adversity, these problems will all erupt.

'We did a good job in the last 15 minutes of the first half, we put enough pressure on the Red Rebels defensively and it hampered their attack, and I hope it will continue in the second half, and Dennis, we have to adjust our tactics in the second half, sorry, you're going to take a break!'

Bergkamp nodded, having done little for the entire first half and replacing him was a matter of course.

Arsene Wenger then began to play for the second half, with Parloer, who was more defensively capable and could play as a right midfielder, replaced Bergkamp as a right wing-back, and Ljungberg moved to the left, where he was also a regular at Arsenal.

Pire, who was originally on the left, moved to the middle, where he played in the lone striker Thierry Henry and the double midfielders Patrick Vieira and Gilberto? Silva was in tandem with each other, which was also designed to cope with the Red Rebels' midfield press.

Such a change, Wenger is tantamount to admitting his mistakes in the first half in disguise, he admitted that he was restrained by Mourinho's tactics in the first half, but there are many players at the bottom who secretly think that if they had responded as early as the Red Rebels adjusted, maybe they would not be 2 goals behind now.

Two goals, it doesn't seem like much, but it's hard to play, especially against a tough opponent like the Red Rebels, and Arsenal themselves are demoralized, and it's really not easy to get back into the score.

........................ "Arsenal's most important thing to do in the second half is to defend, the Red Rebels were too aggressive in the first half, and if they still think about equalizing in the second half, I am afraid they will concede more goals!" "Andy? Gray worried.

As a football player for many years, he has watched countless football games, he has a lot of experience in asking himself, and he has also studied a lot of professional football knowledge, he knows very well that the Red Rebels' lead in the first half is not good, that is, they have sealed the victory in advance.

"It's not going to be as tough as some fans expected, but I think it's going to be a great game, in terms of tactical thinking!" Martin? Taylor said admirably.

Andy? Gray agreed, "yes, Mourinho's on-field command is really good, and I'm sure he has made that change before the game, and the Red Rebels are very focused defensively, they start from the midfield, and with the good running ability of David Beckham and Essien, they set the interception zone in the area of 45-30 meters in front of goal. ”

'The full-backs pressed forward, disrupted Arsenal's attack from 30 yards out, left their strikers isolated, and were able to form a powerful counter-attack immediately after the break, a game for the Red Rebels really made everyone have to change their minds!

"However, this is also due to the lack of awareness of Arsenal's front-court players to counter-attack on the spot, if Henry, Bergkamp, Pire and others can fight back on the spot like Drogba, Palacio and Robben, I believe the Red Rebels will not play so smoothly."

Martin? Taylor suddenly laughed, "And their counter-robbery has not affected their sharpness when attacking, they rely more on smart running, as well as the number of surrounding, such a counter-robbery physical consumption is not large, but the effect is very obvious." ”

"At least this season's Premier League teams are not used to their tactics!" Andy? Gray smiled wryly.

There are many football professionals who highly admire the tactical concept of the Red Rebels, believing that they are born from the Dutch all-attack and defense, but they are more varied, the running system is more flexible, and the players' positions on the field are very fluid, which makes the opponent a headache when defending.

"Strictly speaking, before Mourinho came to the Red Rebels, the team's tactical system already had a framework, but the players at that time were not skilled enough, and the tactical execution was not enough, so it was not reflected enough, but with the promotion of the Red Rebels to the professional league, they established their own tactical style in one fell swoop, and today, it is finally successful!"

"It reminds me of a quote from the Italian coach Sacchi!" Andy? Gray suddenly sighed.

Martin? Taylor smiled and said, "Great style? ”

"Yes, with the ball is to control the tempo of the game, to control the space without the ball, to switch between the two, the Red Rebels have certainly done that, if the previous games against Manchester United and Liverpool were still doubtful, then this one against Arsenal, they conquered everyone with just one first half!"

"But this team is not mature enough!" Martin? Taylor said expectantly.

"Yes, Beckham has just transferred, Robben, Ronaldo, Kaka and other players are still very young, as long as they are given a little more time, they will definitely show the temperament and strength that everyone admires!"

After an introduction to the Red Rebels, the livestream returned to Highbury Field.

"Arsene Wenger made some changes in midfield, replacing Bergkamp with Parlour, and he was clearly determined to defend!" Andy? Gray said after seeing Arsenal's substitutions.

"But can you hold it?" Martin? Taylor asked rhetorically.

No one knows!

…………………… When the second half was restarted, Arsenal kicked off first, and they played very carefully, starting with a back-to-footer looking for an opportunity.

Didier Drogba, Arjen Robben and Palacio all struggled to find their chances up front, with Kaka in the middle of the pack and maneuvering past the front three who needed support, with the more capable Beckham and Essien behind him.

That's why the Red Rebels' players are far ahead of the rest of the Premier League in terms of distance.

Some people say that the Red Rebels players run by running, but they are not blind runners, they are very smart and selective, and they are also lazy and good at stopping and resting in games, which makes their physical consumption not as severe as the data suggests.

Otherwise, how could players with not very good physical fitness such as Robben and Palacio last 90 minutes?

But if anyone sees Robben stop on the left and pant and relax his attention, he's going to suffer, like Lauren.

"Beep beep ......" the referee blew the whistle.

"Offside, Robben suddenly cut diagonally on the left, Kaka's pass tore the gap between Lauren and Campbell, but the referee signaled that Robben was offside, but from slow motion, his position was parallel to Lauren, and it was difficult to judge whether it was offside!"

Robben shook his head with a sigh, shook Kaka's hand as he passed through the middle, and then went back to the left.

If he wasn't offside just now, he could hit the goal directly, or he could choose to cross the goalkeeper and hit the goal, and this goal was almost there!

"After Parlour came on, Arsenal's defence was clearly solid, both sides invested quite a lot of troops in the midfield, and from the current results, the two sides are neck and neck in midfield, Vieira and Gilberto? Silva's interception worked, and the Red Rebels were no longer able to pass through midfield as easily as they did in the first half. ”

As the second half of the game progressed, Arsenal's defense was very tenacious and fierce, especially Vieira, the Arsenal captain repeatedly used ferocious scrambling to disrupt the Red Rebels' attack, Gilberto? Silva even played a lot of tricks and received a yellow card for it.

Arsenal's two wings of defense are also much more active, especially Parlour on the right, his own play is to consolidate the defense on the right side and limit the left side of the Red Rebels, which should be said to have played a role.

And on the right flank of the Red Rebels, there are Vieira and Gilberto? Silva was there, Palacio and McConn's offensive was also limited, and with Ljungberg and Henry behind him, McCone didn't dare to get too close.

Among them, in the 61st minute of the second half, McCone did not return to the defense in time after cutting forward, Arsenal counterattacked, and Henry cut inside with the ball on the left side, hit the post, and almost scored.

Mourinho has been standing on the sidelines since the opening, keeping an eye on the situation on the pitch, and when he saw Thierry Henry almost score, he shouted at McCone angrily, signaling him not to be too aggressive.

With two balls in hand, he can deal with it more calmly, and if Arsenal seizes the opportunity because of his mistakes, it is likely to make the Gunners' momentum completely out.

That's how the big reversal is often formed!

"Arsene Wenger, the old fox, is well adjusted, and he actually plays a defensive counterattack!"

Mourinho felt Cassel come to his side and cursed in a low voice.

The latter is Mourinho's right-hand man, and he is also paying attention to the things on the pitch at all times, frowning slightly, "Arsenal's offensive has gradually improved in the last few minutes, should we recover something?" ”

This is another adjustment to the Red Rebels' pre-match set-up.

Mourinho nodded, took a few steps forward, and shouted at Curtis and Essien and the others, making a strange gesture.

This gesture was inexplicable in the eyes of the Arsenal side, but in the eyes of the Red Rebels players, it was a gesture to be adjusted again.

And with the change of the Red Rebels, the situation on the field soon changed again!
