The value of the League Cup is needless to say. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

For a top club like the Red Rebels, the League Cup is like a piece of chicken ribs to avoid empty-handed fig leaf, but to be able to raise a glass is naturally something to be proud of, after all, this is the Red Rebels' first trophy of the season.

But not to the point where you can get carried away with excitement!

After the Carabao Cup, the Red Rebels did not return to Manchester to celebrate with their fans, instead staying in London to prepare for the crucial game at the Emirates Stadium two days later.

Arsene Wenger's team is recuperating and ready to work, and the Red Rebels are long and exhausted, and in this situation, there is a lot of media that is starting to pin their hopes on Wenger to beat the Red Rebels.

Arsenal have also been excellent this season, with Benzema and Thierry Henry leading the line, Nasri, Arshavin and Gourcuff forming a midfield triangle, plus Alexander? Song: Arsenal have continued to move towards Arsene Wenger's ideal football this season, playing some of the most creative and artistic footballs in the world.

Some say that the Gunners' style of football is a neutralization between the Red Rebels and Barcelona, and the Gunners' core is Gourcuff.

The French midfielder, who couldn't play at AC Milan, came to Arsenal and was shaped by Arsene Wenger as an excellent playmaker midfielder, although he has no speed and poor forward ability, and some people even criticized him for his lack of passing penetration and too slow to get out of the ball, but under Wenger's tutelage, these have been transformed into Gourcuff's strengths.

Looking at Gourcuff's success with the Gunners, it once again confirms an argument in the football world, that is, there is no parallel goods in this world, but the style is not the right way, and no matter how strong people are, they have become parallel goods!

In this game with the Red Rebels, Wenger's calculations played very shrewdly, he knew that the Red Rebels had traveled long distances and fought hard, and the players' physical fitness was on the verge of collapse, especially the main stars, so he formulated a strategy for the surname in this game, wanting to drag down the Red Rebels in the game.

But I'm afraid that even Wenger himself didn't expect that a team as strong as the Red Rebels would one day put down their bodies, play defensive counterattacks, and play so well.

Isn't there a saying? When the defensive counterattack really plays a momentum, and the number of counterattacks increases, the counterattack becomes an active attack!

…………

…………

"Michael? Johnson launched a long pass in the midfield, Aguero entered the penalty area against offside, stopped the ball on his chest and shot, Almunia reacted quickly and lifted the ball off the crossbar, corner kick! "Andy? Gray shouted this series of words in one breath, and people really had to marvel at his lung capacity.

This is also something that cannot be helped, who let the Red Rebels fight back so quickly?

The Red Rebels' counterattack is simple, Michael? Johnson passed, the three players in the front field counter-attacked, Aguero and Ozil were both cruising near the Arsenal backline, and Kaka was more of a counter-attacking role inserted in the back row, once Aguero and Ozil opened up the gap, he rushed straight in to play.

The tactics are simple, but they are difficult to restrain them.

This is like a martial art, cultivated to a high depth, even the most ordinary set of boxing techniques, can become invincible in the world!

That's how the Red Rebels are today!

Arsene Wenger is well aware of the Red Rebels' counter-attacking routines and he wants to limit them, but these three players are fluctuating, Arsenal's two flanks are dangerous, and the middle is slightly stronger, but Mourinho is well aware of the characteristics of Arsenal's defensive core Hangrande, and he is specifically grasping for the holes where he turns slowly.

Judging from the scene, the Red Rebels have a lot of substitutes, such as Michael? Johnson's midfield partners Rodwell and Mikel, and Davide on the right side of the backline? Thornton, attacking player Mesut Ozil, these are not the main players of the Red Rebels.

But despite this, the Red Rebels still rely on their own tactical system to lead Arsenal by half a percentage in overall strength, so their so-called defensive counterattack is actually more of a full-court press, once successful, immediately hit a counterattack.

This kind of full-court defensive counterattack has a characteristic, that is, every successful steal is an offensive opportunity, and then through a quick counterattack, without dragging the mud and water, so the game's offensive and defensive conversion speed is very fast, and the offensive wave after wave is like a surging river, the scene is very spectacular, and it seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an offensive battle.

But for Arsenal, and especially for Gourcuff, this kind of ultra-fast-paced game often represents an increase in the difficulty of controlling the ball, an increase in mistakes, and more mistakes mean more opportunities for the Red Rebels to attack.

In this way, the so-called defensive counterattack, in fact, looks more like an offensive battle from the scene!

"This might turn out to be a game that goes down in a tactical textbook!" Arsene Wenger said with a sigh on the sidelines.

As the game progressed, with the Arsenal defence in jeopardy, and as the Red Rebels counterattacked more and more, Arsene Wenger really appreciated the strength of the Red Rebels' system.

This is like a martial arts master with excellent internal skills, even if it is just a branch, it can be turned into a killing weapon in his hands.

The tactical characteristics of the Red Rebels are offensive football, which is the control and pressure of the field, and the subtle off-ball running and passing and receiving coordination, but they play backhand counterattacks, which are also handy, and they have a bit of the characteristics of the Red Rebels.

The so-called defensive counterattack, the focus is not on defense, but on counterattacking!

The Red Rebels do the most when they are on the counter-attacking side of the team, but when they do it, they focus on the counter-attack.

Sergio Aguero, Kaka, and Mesut Ozil are all very fast and technically good players, and this type of player has both speed and can create a threat before the opposition defence is completed; You can also hold the ball in the front court, form a cooperation, and create a crisis.

These three players are undoubtedly the key to the defensive counterattack!

Another important feature of defensive counterattack is the quick transition between attack and defense, which has always been one of the essence of the Red Rebels' tactics, and it is natural to spare no effort in execution.

It is precisely because of all this that the Emirates Stadium is going on a very sad game, on the surface it seems that Arsenal has the upper hand, but in fact it is the Red Rebels who are really threatening!

Being able to use the defensive counterattack so skillfully, and even the tactical formation that was put together temporarily, is not lost to the defensive counterattack tactics tailored by Benitez for Valencia back then, which shows that this tactical system of the Red Rebels has truly matured.

"Mourinho, Mourinho, you are finally starting to be among the great coaches!" Wenger looked at Mourinho not far from him with some envy, who was looking at the players on the field with a look of approval, laughing, laughing nastyly!

If any manager wants to be among the greats, he must have a contribution to the field of football, tactical innovation, record, influence, and legend, all of which are indispensable.

Arsene Wenger's dream is to be among the greats, but he is still relatively close, especially in terms of results and legends, and of course, the tactical innovation he has brought to English football, and the impact he brings to Arsenal have made him coveted.

But Mourinho, on the other hand, coached the Red Rebels from an amateur team to the Premier League, and in just a decade or so, he has become the top European giant, the strongest team in the world, with Beckham, Kaka, Ronaldo, Messi and other world footballers, as well as Fabregas, Drogba, Essien and other world-class superstars, these are all legends.

It has even been said that the experience of Jose Mourinho and the Red Rebels is one of the most legendary in football's history!

As for the record, Mourinho has maintained one title per year for many years, and has won the Champions League three times in a row, has won seven Grand Slams, and has maintained a brilliant record of all wins this season.

Influence, with the status of the Red Rebels in football today, Mourinho's influence in today's football is invincible, and no manager can compete with him, at least in terms of influence, he deserves to be the number one in the world.

Originally, tactical innovation is the most difficult threshold for all promotions to great head coaches, after all, records and influence are easy to obtain, and the legendary surname is a little difficult, but it is not impossible, only tactical innovation, which is not something that money can buy.

However, the system that Mourinho and his assistants have created for the Red Rebels has opened up a whole new genre of football, showing all footballers that it is different from all previous tactical concepts, cleverly combining ball control and control space, and connecting the team's defense and attack through smooth off-ball running.

If in the past, some people questioned that the tactics of the Red Rebels were only applicable to the Red Rebels and could not form a wave of tactical reform, then with the success of Argentina and England in the World Cup qualifiers, and with the change of the team's tactics in Mourinho's game, it is clear that the tactical concept of the Red Rebels has reached its peak.

Under this set of tactical concepts, you can play the football of the Red Rebels, which is both rigid and soft, you can also play the technical football of Argentina, you can also play the aggressive football of England, and you can also play the defensive counterattack with unique characteristics and flavors.

This is undoubtedly a major innovation in football tactics, and Wenger can almost predict that more and more teams will start to emulate the Red Rebels' tactical philosophy, which will shine at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, when both the Red Rebels and Jose Mourinho will be in the ascending ranks.

Seeing that he has been pursuing persistently for many years, but in the end he was taken advantage of by his opponent, Wenger is really mixed, but he is envious, and even jealous of Mourinho, he is also very admired.

"He and his Red Rebels deserve any praise!" Wenger said convincingly.

…………

…………

0:2, the Red Rebels defeated the Gunners away with two sharp counter-attacks by Aguero and Ozil, penetrating the goal guarded by Almunia and beating the Gunners away, but it was not the most eye-catching.

What really caught the eye was the rare post-match press conference in which Arsene Wenger praised the Red Rebels in his post-match press conference, arguing that Jose Mourinho's side played an astonishing level of football and tactics in this game, and that they performed better than Arsenal and deserved to win.

As for the Red Rebels players who attracted attention in the game, Wenger focused on two people, Kaka and Michael? Johnson.

'Kaka scored two goals on two breakaways, he's the Red Rebels' front field commander, he's the man of the match, he's amazing how he handles the ball on high-speed counter-attacks, he's like he's made for it, he's a counter-attacking master, it's hard to believe he's going to be Kaka.

"Michael? Johnson is very fluid and natural in his control of the transition between attack and defence, often with a single movement, he can move the team from attack to defense, his style of play reminds me of Redondo, he is indeed the closest player to Redondo in terms of style, he is very, very good, and full of intelligence! ”

'We lost this game but we gained a lot and I'm sure my players will recover from this defeat very quickly and I will try to make them understand that against such a good Red Rebels at this time, any team can be excusable for a loss, we have to move on to the next games and we want to play in next season's European Champions Cup, which requires my players to get out of the shadow of defeat as soon as possible!"

Arsene Wenger's praise also drew a chorus of media cheers, with the Red Rebels currently top the Premier League with 81 points from 29 wins, 21 points ahead of second-placed Manchester City, which has already broken the record set by Manchester United in the 99/00 season, when the Reds were 18 points ahead of Arsenal.

Of course, for the Red Rebels to set this new record, they will have to maintain their lead.

However, there is no doubt that this season's Red Rebels have booked the Premier League title in advance, after all, there are only nine rounds left in the league, and it would be ridiculous to not win the title in this situation.

After playing Arsenal, the Red Rebels did not return to Manchester, but remained in London for the FA Cup last-eight knockout round, where they took on Tottenham Hotspur away.

From the Carabao Cup final to the league to the cup, the media ridiculed the Red Rebels for using London as their training camp, while the warm-up opponents ranged from Aston Villa to Arsenal and now Tottenham.

But Mourinho doesn't see it that way, he is determined to win the game, so in this game, including Ronaldo Jr. and Messi, the two players who were rested in the last game, all played, and the center striker Drogba replaced the injured Ismail.

With this rotating line-up, the Red Rebels defeated Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 away to reach the FA Cup semi-finals thanks to a goal from Tottenham Hotspur on the road.

After winning three games and winning a League Cup, the Red Rebels returned to Manchester with honor, and the Red Rebels fans immediately reaped the team's bus through the city of Manchester, and they were all satisfied with the momentum of the Red Rebels this season, both in the league and in the cup.

The next day, the draw for the FA Cup semi-finals was announced, with the Red Rebels facing Chelsea in the semi-finals and Droysden and Manchester United in the other four fixtures, and it was not difficult to see how fierce the competition is in the FA Cup this season.

However, Mourinho did not have much time to pay attention to this, he focused more on the league.

The home stadium of the Red Rebels after a long absence, was once again full, and the Red Rebels ushered in the challenge of the Wolves.

Although it has been a multi-front battle for a long time and the fitness of the players is in danger, Mourinho's rotation strategy is well reflected in this difficult situation, especially when it comes to the beating and use of young players.

Rodwell, Aron? Ramsay, Wilshere, Davide? Thornton, Nimar and other young players have been given full opportunities to practice and accumulate some game experience, but at the same time, the combat effectiveness of the Red Rebels has not been greatly affected, although there are thrills, but in the end they all won the game.

And in the game against Wolves, the Fabio brothers are still suspended, and Mourinho still did not put them in the squad, but reused Davide? Thornton and Alves played on the wings.

At 4:0, the Red Rebels successfully beat the Wolves at home, and Ismael, who returned from injury, scored a hat-trick to prove to the world his excellent competitive form and personal ability.

But what was really exciting was the day after the game when Manchester City challenged Sunderland away, and although Louis van Gaal's side controlled the game, Sunderland's players performed well, especially the Red Rebels' midfielder Jordan Henderson, who was on loan at Sunderland, and orchestrated a goal in a counter-attack in the ninth minute of the game.

After goalkeeper Chris? Taylor showed a miracle to clear City's multiple shots with high blocks and low receivers, and although Ibrahimovic eventually earned a penalty for City with his individual ability and took the penalty himself, City could not take all three points from the Black Cats.

The draw widened the gap between Manchester City and the Red Rebels to 23 points, and with eight games remaining, the Red Rebels are guaranteed to win the Premier League title for the next season with a win over Droisden in their next game.

This is undoubtedly news that has excited Red Rebels fans, and has made Manchester City and Manchester United fans sad, especially Manchester City fans, who originally had a little hope left, even if it was slim, but at least a hope, but now Manchester City are undoubtedly cutting that hope with their own hands.

It is undoubtedly very difficult to make the Red Rebels make mistakes, even Manchester City and Manchester United fans know this very well, so they have begun to shift their team's strategy to the European stage, fortunately, whether it is Manchester City or Manchester United, the entire Premier League teams are doing well in the European arena and are full of competitiveness.

This is also a consolation for non-Red Rebels fans.
